Notes: 

  1. Source: Foreign Worker System (FWS).
  2. The table shows the number of temporary foreign worker (TFW) positions on labour market opinion (LMO) confirmations (excluding the Seasonal Agricultural Worker Program), by the industry sector of the employer, based on the North American Industry Classification (NAICS) 2002.
  3. One LMO application may be submitted by an employer for any number of TFW positions. Arranged employment opinions (AEO) provided in support of applications for permanent residence are not included.
  4. A four-digit NAICS code is assigned to each employer based on the employer's primary business activity. This table only shows the industry sector at the two-digit level. The NAICS classification may not be linked to the specific occupation of the TFW.
  5. In order to ensure the protection of personal information, cells containing fewer than 10 cases in a specific category have been suppressed and replaced with the notation "--". Additional cells may also have been suppressed to ensure confidentiality of data. As a result, components may not sum up to the total indicated. To limit small cell suppression, statistics for the territories (Yukon, Northwest Territories and Nunavut) have been aggregated in this table.
  6. The decision to issue a work permit rests with Citizenship and Immigration Canada (CIC). A work permit may not be issued for all TFWs named on an LMO confirmation. In addition, there may be a delay between the date of confirmation and the date on which the TFW obtains a work permit and/or enters Canada.
  7. Not all TFWs require an LMO to apply for a work permit. A number of exemptions exist, including those provided for in the General Agreement on Trade in Services and the North American Free Trade Agreement.
  8. The numbers appearing in this table may differ from those reported in previous HRSDC releases. These differences are adjustments to administrative data files as normally occur over time and reflect refinement in methods of calculation for the purpose of increasing accuracy in the way statistical information is presented.
