Survey of Annual Work Patterns, 1983 [Canada]

The survey collected data from all persons 15 years and over in randomly selected households. The purpose of the Survey of Annual Work Patterns was to examine three important activities during the year, namely: working, looking for work and going to school. For Canadians in general, how were these three activities distributed over the calendar year? The information obtained will provide: 1. the number of persons who worked all year; 2. the number of persons who did not work all year; 3. the number of persons who looked for a job when they were out of work; 4. the number of persons who did not work at all; 5. the number of students who worked anytime during the year. Employment and unemployment are vital factors in the growth and stability of the Canadian economy. The statistics obtained from this survey aided in the continuing study of problems associated with employment and unemployment in Canada.本调查从随机抽选的住户家庭中，收集所有15岁及以上人群的相关数据。本次年度工作模式调查的核心目标为考察自然年内的三项关键活动，即就业、求职与就学。针对加拿大全体民众而言，这三项活动在公历年度内的分布呈现何种特征？本次调查所获取的信息将提供以下五类统计结果：1. 全年就业的总人数；2. 非全年就业的总人数；3. 失业期间开展求职活动的人数；4. 完全未参与任何工作的人数；5. 年内任意时段曾参与工作的学生人数。就业与失业状况是影响加拿大经济增长与稳定性的关键要素。本次调查产出的统计数据，将为加拿大持续开展就业与失业相关问题的研究提供有力支撑。
