Survey of Work Arrangements, 1991 [Canada]

The objectives of this survey were to provide additional information on the main and second paid worker jobs of the LFS respondents on issues such as: when people work (days of the week, hours of work); how much control they have over there schedules (e.g. on call, flexible schedule); how many home based workers there are and why they work at home; how many people hold down two jobs and why they do so. Other information gathered by the Survey included: wages and salaries of main and second jobs, overtime work and rates of pay, union coverage of workers, temporary job holding and insights on how families juggle their work schedules to better balance their work and family responsibilities. This survey is conducted as supplement to the Labour Force Survey (LFS).
