StatCan WxT | Collaborative open source project led by the Government of Canada

Why do we conduct this survey?

This survey is conducted by Statistics Canada in order to collect the necessary information to support the Integrated Business Statistics Program (IBSP). This program combines various survey and administrative data to develop comprehensive measures of the Canadian economy.

The statistical information from the IBSP serves many purposes, including:

Calculating each province and territory's fair share of federal-provincial transfer payments for health, education and social programs
Establishing government programs to assist businesses
Assisting the business community in negotiating contracts and collective agreements
Supporting the government in making informed decisions about fiscal, monetary and foreign exchange policies
Indexing social benefit programs and determining tax brackets
Enabling academics and economists to analyze the economic performance of Canadian industries and to better understand rapidly evolving business environments.

Your information may also be used by Statistics Canada for other statistical and research purposes.

Your participation in this survey is required under the authority of the Statistics Act.

Other important information

Authorization to collect this information

Data are collected under the authority of the Statistics Act, Revised Statutes of Canada, 1985, Chapter S-19.

Confidentiality

By law, Statistics Canada is prohibited from releasing any information it collects that could identify any person, business, or organization, unless consent has been given by the respondent, or as permitted by the Statistics Act. Statistics Canada will use the information from this survey for statistical purposes only.

Record linkages

To enhance the data from this survey and to reduce the reporting burden, Statistics Canada may combine the acquired data with information from other surveys or from administrative sources.

Data-sharing agreements

To reduce respondent burden, Statistics Canada has entered into data-sharing agreements with provincial and territorial statistical agencies and other government organizations, which have agreed to keep the data confidential and use them only for statistical purposes. Statistics Canada will only share data from this survey with those organizations that have demonstrated a requirement to use the data.

Section 11 of the Statistics Act provides for the sharing of information with provincial and territorial statistical agencies that meet certain conditions. These agencies must have the legislative authority to collect the same information, on a mandatory basis, and the legislation must provide substantially the same provisions for confidentiality and penalties for disclosure of confidential information as the Statistics Act. Because these agencies have the legal authority to compel businesses to provide the same information, consent is not requested and businesses may not object to the sharing of the data.

For this survey, there are Section 11 agreements with the provincial and territorial statistical agencies of Newfoundland and Labrador, Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Québec, Ontario, Manitoba, Saskatchewan, Alberta, British Columbia and the Yukon. The shared data will be limited to information pertaining to business establishments located within the jurisdiction of the respective province or territory.

Section 12 of the Statistics Act provides for the sharing of information with federal, provincial or territorial government organizations. Under Section 12, you may refuse to share your information with any of these organizations by writing a letter of objection to the Chief Statistician, specifying the organizations with which you do not want Statistics Canada to share your data and mailing it to the following address:

Chief Statistician of Canada
Statistics Canada

4. Please verify or provide the current main activity of the business or organization identified by the legal and operating name above.

Note: The described activity was assigned using the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS).

This question verifies the business or organization's current main activity as classified by the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS). The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) is an industry classification system developed by the statistical agencies of Canada, Mexico and the United States. Created against the background of the North American Free Trade Agreement, it is designed to provide common definitions of the industrial structure of the three countries and a common statistical framework to facilitate the analysis of the three economies. NAICS is based on supply-side or production-oriented principles, to ensure that industrial data, classified to NAICS , are suitable for the analysis of production-related issues such as industrial performance.

The target entity for which NAICS is designed are businesses and other organizations engaged in the production of goods and services. They include farms, incorporated and unincorporated businesses and government business enterprises. They also include government institutions and agencies engaged in the production of marketed and non-marketed services, as well as organizations such as professional associations and unions and charitable or non-profit organizations and the employees of households.

The associated NAICS should reflect those activities conducted by the business or organizational units targeted by this questionnaire only, as identified in the 'Answering this questionnaire' section and which can be identified by the specified legal and operating name. The main activity is the activity which most defines the targeted business or organization's main purpose or reason for existence. For a business or organization that is for-profit, it is normally the activity that generates the majority of the revenue for the entity.

The NAICS classification contains a limited number of activity classifications; the associated classification might be applicable for this business or organization even if it is not exactly how you would describe this business or organization's main activity.

The following is the detailed description including any applicable examples or exclusions for the classification currently associated with this business or organization.

Industry characteristics

1. What were this business's sales for each of the following types of employment services?

Please report all amounts in thousands of Canadian dollars.

Executive/retained search services
Specialized search and recruitment service limited to filling highly paid executive, senior manager, and professional positions, according to client specifications.
- May include fees for services such as:
  - conducting detailed interviews with the client organization's management team
  - developing job profiles
  - conducting original research and advertising to locate potential job candidates
  - screening possible candidates
  - preparing, presenting and discussing a confidential list of highly qualified applicants with the client
  - making interview arrangements
  - negotiating compensation
  - providing post-hire follow-up.
The search firm typically provides two assurances to the client firm:
- repeat the search at no extra charge (out-of-pocket expenses only) should a placed candidate subsequently fail for reasons attributed to lack of due diligence by the search firm
- not to recruit from the client firm for a stated period of time.
The client makes the decision as to which candidate to hire. The search agency fee is charged whether or not the candidate is hired. This product is also known as retained search.
Permanent placement services (exclude executive/retained search services)
Service of recruiting, selecting and referring candidates to the client to fill positions on a permanent (indeterminate) basis.
- The services may include testing, interviewing, reference checking, evaluation and counselling of prospective employees. The service provider acts as an employment intermediary. The candidate is selected and hired by the client. The placement firm is paid on a contingency basis, e.g., only for successful placement of a candidate. This product includes permanent placement services for a complete range of occupations from low-level employees to management employees, including executives, domestic and international job placements.
- Exclude permanent placement services for executives recruited through executive/retained search service (report at Executive/retained search services).
Contract staffing services (temporary assignment of contract employees — non T4 recipients)
Services of finding individual contractors to fill positions on the basis of written contracts that stipulate the deliverables for which the client has contracted, as well as specific terms and conditions of employment. Under the terms of this agreement, the service provider has legal rights and duties with respect to the individual contractors. As they are not employees of the employment placement agencies, the individual contractors are normally responsible for their own payroll deductions and government filings.
Temporary staffing services (temporary assignment of staffing firm employees — T4 recipients)
Supplying personnel for temporary work assignments, temporary staffing firms hire their own employees and assigns them to support or supplement the client's workforce in work situations such as employee absences, temporary skill shortages, seasonal workloads and special assignments and projects. The employees are on the payroll of the temporary staffing firm which is legally responsible for their actions, but when working they are under the direct supervision of the client. The temporary staffing firm specifies the pay, benefits, etc. of the employee.
Temporary staffing to permanent placement services
This is a temporary assignment of staffing firm employees — T4 recipients — with the expectation of permanent work at the end of the trial period with the client.
The employee remains on the payroll of the temporary help staffing firm until the hiring decision is made at which time he or she becomes an employee of the client or, if not, returns to the temporary help staffing firm. This service may include training, counselling, assessment and résumé upgrading.
Co-employment staffing and payrolling services
Co-employment staffing is provided by a professional employer organization; payrolling is long term staffing such as labour leasing, staff leasing, employee leasing and extended employee staffing.
A service in which a professional employer organization (PEO) co-employs a client's workforce. The PEO and the client enter into a contractual agreement whereby the rights and responsibilities in respect of co-employees are shared or allocated, with the service provider assuming responsibility for certain activities as agreed with the client. These range from basic to full-service packages.
Payrolling is supplying personnel for extended work assignments. Under the terms of this arrangement, the client may recruit the person or persons hired by the staffing firm and assigned to their place of work, or transfer a portion of their existing workforce to the staffing firm. Long-term employees are placed on the payroll of the staffing firm, which is legally responsible for their actions, but when working they are supervised by the client. This service includes activities such as labour leasing, staff leasing, employee leasing, extended employee staffing and payrolling
All other sales

Assignment of an on-site manager requires a request from the client.
  - On-line job listing services
    Soliciting candidates and posting job openings to a website which may be known as a job board, job bank, recruiting site, directory, labour exchange or employment registry.

Industry characteristics

1. What were this business's sales for each of the following goods and services?

Please report all amounts in thousands of Canadian dollars.

Note: If a breakdown cannot be provided for questions a1. and a2. (geophysical data acquisition, processing and interpreting geophysical data), please report the combined amount at question a3., Integrated geophysical services.

a. Geophysical surveying and mapping services

If a breakdown cannot be provided for geophysical data acquisition and processing and interpreting geophysical data, please report the combined amount at "Integrated geophysical services".

a1. Geophysical data acquisition by seismic or non-seismic methods

The collection of geophysical data by seismic or non-seismic methods for the purpose of characterizing subsurface conditions.

Exclude the collection of borehole geophysical data.

a2. Processing and interpreting geophysical data acquired by seismic or non-seismic methods

The processing of geophysical data in order to facilitate interpretation. The service may include reprocessing data or the integration of other sets of data collected by the same method. Interpretation involves the analysis of geophysical data acquired by seismic or non-seismic methods that are processed to generate models and predictions about the properties and structures of the subsurface. May include integration of geophysical data collected by other methods, or additional data including non-geophysical data.

Exclude processing and analysis of borehole geophysical data.

a3. Integrated geophysical services

Services which include two or more phases (collection, processing and analysis) of the process used to carry out geophysical surveys.

a4. Geophysical borehole logging surveys

Services which include two or more phases (collection, processing and analysis) of the process used to carry out geophysical surveys.

Include borehole geophysical surveys.

a5. Geophysical data sales

The sale of geophysical data and the brokerage of data. May include data that are available on a licence basis.

b. Non-geophysical surveying and mapping services

Geospatial photo and image acquisition and processing, and geospatial data interpretation.

b1. Geospatial airborne and spaceborne photo and image acquisition

Information about the earth's surface acquired from aircraft or spaceborne platforms, in which aerial cameras, radar, infra-red detectors, GPS receivers or other equipment aboard are the primary means of data collection. Products may be geospatially referenced, and in the case of aerial photography, there may have been additional processing.

b2. Geospatial photo and image processing (e.g., orthophoto and image processing, elevation and terrain modeling, aerotriangulation, photomosaics and photogrammetric mosaics)

orthophoto and image processing is the processing of aerial photographs or satellite imagery to remove distortions due to tilt, terrain relief and perspective. The result is an orthorectified photo or image
elevation and terrain modeling is the production of models describing the elevation of the earth's surface over a defined area. The models may take the form of a data array, a randomly distributed set of points, or an image produced using the digital elevation data. The elevations may have been corrected for the height of trees, vegetation, and buildings. The result is either a Digital Elevation Model (DEM) or a Digital Terrain Model (DTM)
aerotriangulation is the determination of horizontal or vertical co-ordinates of points on the ground from precise measurements on a photograph or image to create a control network sufficiently dense to provide a positionally accurate framework
photomosaics is the process by which individual photographs obtained directly from the negative are combined to form a photographic image of a larger area. This process is intended to lead to less distortion of scale by making adjustments and cuts of the original photographs. These are not rectified photographs
photogrammetric mosaics is the process for combining rectified aerial photographs so that the borders coincide and form a continuous photographic representation of part of the earth's surface
photogrammetric restitution is the process of converting information obtained from aerial photographs or satellite imagery into conventional symbols.

b3. Geospatial data interpretation

Analysis of the nature of objects whose images appear on a photograph or other imagery and the description of those objects; the characterization of the earth's surface, natural or man-made features covering the earth's surface.

c. Other non-geophysical surveying and mapping services

c1. Topographic and planimetric surveying and mapping services

Surveying for the purpose of determining the shape (relief) of the surface of the land or the location of natural and man-made features on the surface and the preparation or revision of a map indicating the elevation of the surface (relative to a datum point) and slope.

c2. Hydrographic and bathymetric surveying and mapping services

Surveying for the purpose of determining the geometric and dynamic characteristics of bodies of water, including:

the depth, temperature, or salinity of water
the configuration of the bottom
the velocities of currents
the heights and times of tides and water stages
the location of fixed objects used in navigation
the preparation or revision of maps showing this information.

c3. Boundary, property line and cadastral surveying and mapping services

Surveying for the purpose of establishing or re-establishing a boundary or property line on the ground, or for preparation of a map or plan showing a boundary or property line(s), including surveying for legal or cadastral purposes.

c4. Subdivision layout and design

Dividing a piece of land into smaller pieces such as:

lots, streets, and rights of way
marking or monumenting all necessary corners or dividing lines
preparing maps or plans showing all information regarding adjoining land affecting the boundaries
may include layout of roadway, and storm water/sanitary systems.

c5. Construction surveying

Surveying prior to and during construction to control elevation, horizontal location and dimensions, and configuration; to determine if the construction was adequately completed; and to obtain dimensions essential for calculating quantities used in paying for construction.

c6. Geodetic surveying and ground control support

Surveying for the purpose of determining the precise horizontal or vertical position of points or monumented locations to provide a reference framework for further surveys.

Include ground control support.

c7. Thematic and orthophoto mapping and aeronautical and nautical charting

thematic mapping is the preparation and revision of specialized map and data products designed to portray specific data themes such as natural resource, demographic, economic, biological, etc.
orthophoto mapping is the preparation and revision of orthophoto maps
aeronautical charting is the preparation and revision of charts designed primarily for use in aeronautical navigation. The aeronautical chart provides important information about flight paths, airport approaches and facilities, as well as landmark features
nautical charting is the preparation and revision of charts designed primarily for use in nautical navigation. Features usually shown are: bathymetric contours, navigational hazards, aids to navigation, port facilities, water depths and type of shoreline.

d. Geographic information system (GIS) development and customization

Design, development, modification and customization of a geospatially-referenced information system.

e. Other sales

Include:

geophysical software and equipment
geographic information system (GIS) software

New Assets: Report Capital Expenditures for acquisitions of new assets including the portion of work in progress for the current year. Include imports of used assets since they represent newly acquired assets for the Canadian economy.

Purchase of Used Canadian Assets: The object of our survey is to measure the acquisitions of new fixed assets separately from used fixed assets in the Canadian economy as a whole. This is because the acquisition of used assets does not increase the total inventory of fixed assets, it only transfers them within the Canadian economy. Report acquisition of used assets separately in this column.

Renovation, Retrofit, Refurbishing, Overhauling and Restoration: Report Capital Expenditures for existing assets being upgraded, renovated, retrofitted, refurbished, overhauled or restored.

Expected Useful Life of Assets: Report the expected life of the asset in years.

Non-Residential Construction and Machinery and Equipment

34. For the YYYY fiscal year, what were your organization's expenses for the following questions?

Non-Capital Repair and Maintenance Expenditures: This question represents the repair and maintenance of assets in contrast to the acquisition of assets or the renovation of assets.

Include:

gross non-capital repair and maintenance expenditures on non-residential buildings, other structures and on machinery and equipment
value of repair work done by your own employees as well as payments to persons outside your employ
building maintenance such as janitorial services, snow removal and sanding
equipment maintenance such as oil changes and lubrication of vehicles and other machinery.

Work in Progress: Work in progress represents accumulated costs since the start of capital projects which are intended to be capitalized upon completion.

Typically capital investment includes any expenditure on an asset in which its life is greater than one year. Capital items charged to operating expenses are defined as expenditures which could have been capitalized as part of the fixed assets, but for various reasons, have been charged to current expenses.
