National Survey of Information Technology Occupations, 2002 [Canada] [Excel]

The national Survey of Information Technology Occupations, conducted in 2002 on behalf of the Software Human Resource Council (SHRC), is the first to shed light on the IT labour market in both the public and private sectors. IT employers and employees were surveyed separately, but simultaneously. The employer survey consisted of questions on occupation profile, hiring and recruitment, employee retention, and training and development. The employee survey had questions on the occupational history of IT employees, salary, education, training, and skills. The target population consisted of private sector locations with at least six employees, and with at least one employee working in IT, as well as public-sector divisions with at least one IT employee. The NSITO is a three-stage survey. First, a sample of employers in both private and public sectors is selected; this is stage 1. The questions asked in stage 1 are essentially about the IT workforce. Stage 2 involves selecting a maximum of two occupations (out of 25) per employer. The questions asked in this stage deal with hiring, training and retaining employees in the selected occupations. In stage 3, a maximum of 10 employees are sampled for each occupation selected in stage 2. Among the subjects that employees are asked about are training, previous employment and demographic characteristics.2002年受软件人力资源委员会（Software Human Resource Council, SHRC）委托开展的全国信息技术职业调查（National Survey of Information Technology Occupations, NSITO），是首个全面揭示公共与私营部门信息技术劳动力市场状况的调研项目。该调研分别同步开展雇主与雇员两类调查：雇主调查问卷涵盖职业概况、招聘录用、员工留存以及培训与发展相关问题；雇员调查问卷则涉及信息技术从业者的职业履历、薪资水平、教育背景、培训经历与技能水平等内容。本次调研的目标人群包括员工规模不少于6人且至少配备1名信息技术从业人员的私营机构，以及至少拥有1名信息技术从业者的公共部门分支机构。NSITO采用三阶段调查设计：第一阶段，抽取私营与公共部门的雇主样本，该阶段的调研问题核心围绕信息技术劳动力队伍设置；第二阶段，每家雇主最多从25类职业中遴选2类职业，此阶段的问题聚焦于选定职业的员工招聘、培训与留存工作；第三阶段，为第二阶段选定的每类职业抽取最多10名雇员作为受访对象，向雇员询问的内容包括培训经历、过往就职经历与人口统计学特征。
