Canada will Revise the Labour Force Survey on January 30

CANADA

Alterations will be made to Labor Force Survey data (both historical and recent data) as of January 30, 2023.

"There are three main components to the revision:
1. All occupation data, starting in January 1987, will be revised to use the latest standard, National Occupational Classification (NOC) 2021.
2. Enhancements to the LFS imputation system will be implemented retroactively back to January 2006.
3. The standard annual revision to seasonal adjustment factors will be implemented over a longer time span, to account for changes in estimates resulting from the NOC update and imputation enhancements."
