For additional information and definitions related to the employment variable, refer to Survey of Employment, Payrolls and Hours (SEPH). The employment of total firms in this table should match with the total number of employees from SEPH (CANSIM table 281-0024). Any data discrepancy would be due to different revision policies between the two programs. Figures may not add up due to rounding. Atlantic provinces include: Newfoundland and Labrador, Prince Edward Island, Nova Scotia, and New Brunswick. Territories include: Yukon, Northwest Territories, and Nunavut. Forestry, logging and support (11) includes the following industries: forestry and logging (113) and support activities to forestry (1153). The other industries within this sector are currently not available in the Survey of Employment, Payrolls and Hours. Unclassified businesses (00) are businesses for which the industrial classification (North American Industry Classification System -NAICS) has yet to be determined.
