weiixae,
Industrial employment generally was in slightly greater voluse at the beginning of May, when the index, on the 1949 base as 100, was 108.1, as compared with 10606 at Apr. 1. 8lightly lower than at May 1 in either 1953 or 1952, the latest figure coincided with the May 1, 1951, index, and was higher than at the same date in earlier years. The trend has been upward in 8 of the years since 1939, a period in whioh the changes ;t May 1 have usually been emil. The increase at the date wider review as compared with the preoeding survey took place largely among men, whose nuabere rose by 0.7 p.o., while the oo-op.rating establishments added only 0.1 p.c* to their staffs of women. In the last 12 months, the reported nwiber of workers of the latter sex has deolined by 3 93 p.c. and that of men, by 4.6 p.o. A gain of 0.8 p.oe in the working forces was accompanied by a rise of 0.7 p.oe in the weekly wages and salaries. The payroll index was 1.0 p.c* lower than at Way 1, 1953 s, but was otherwise the highest in the record for the time of year. There were wide ly-diatributed increases in the expenditures, both industrially and geographioally. An outstanding exoeption was logging, which showed important seasonal declines in payu. rolls, as in employees. The general figure of per capita earnings reaohed a. new mximus for May 1, at $59.14. This average, which was exceeded only by the Mar. 1, 1954, figure . 1 of last year. The trend at the date wiler of $59.22, was 2,8 p.oe higher than at May review as compared with a month earlier was upward in a great many of the industries surveyed, in 7 of the provinces, and in 19 of the metropolitan areas for which data are segregated. There were also widely distributed increases in average weekly wages and salaries as compared with the beginning of May in 1953 and preceding years. Industrially, employment was at a lower level than at Apr. 1 in forestry, mining and asnufacturingi the seasonal loss in the logging camps amounted to 25.7 p.o. Mine operators released 1.8 p.os of their staffs. There was improvement in gold mining and in non-metal mining, but empioment in coal mining showed a reoeseicn that was somewhat greater than usual for the time of year. With longer working hours in some areas, hos.'ver, the payrolls and the average earnings in that industry' were higher than in the week of Apr. 1. The falling-off in employment in manufacturing was smell, (0.5 p.o.). The treat was slightly dowiwrd in plants turning out durable and non-durable manufactured goods. Greater activity was indicated in the other industries for which data are obtained. The increases in the working forces, largely seasonal, were on a moderate scale for the time of year. The moat marked expansion, of 9.8 p.o. and 3.0 p.o., was reported in construction and transportation, storage and or.emloation, respectively. A brief review of the area figures shows an upward movement in employment in 7 provinces and in 17 of the 52 metropolitan areas for which statistics are published. The levels of industrial activity in most provinces and cities were rather lower than . 1, 19550 at May Changs In p12yvent for Men and The runbers of men and women reported at hay I were higher by 0.7 p.o. and 0.1 p.o., respectively, than in the preceding survey. The proportion of women per 1,000 employe.s of both sexes, at 228. was slightly below the Apr. 1 ratio of 229, but exceeded the figure of 226 indicated 12 months earlier. At May 1 in previous years for whioh monthly data are available, the niatbers per 1,000 were as followes 1962, 219; 1951, 224; 1950 0 231; 1949 8, 228; 1948, 225; 19470 228, and 1946. 238. Since May 1, 1953, industrial employment for men has fallen by 4 9 6 p.o., WOTE, TEE lATEST ?IGUEES THROUGHOUT THIS BULI.ETITI ARE SUBJECT TO REVISION.

I. Include, wood products, iron and steel products, .transportat ion equipment, non-len us metal products, eleciqical apparatus and supplies and non-metallic mineral products. The non-durable group includes the remaining manufacturir g industries. 2. Mainly hotels, restaurants, laundries, dry cleaning plants at d business and recreati onal services.
-3and for wen, by 3.3 p.o. The miaber of men reported by manufacturing estab1is1nte dropped by 0.2 p.oe in the month, during which there was a decline of 1.7 p.o* among wen, largely reflecting seasonal curtailment in the toba000 and clothing industries. The nusber of man on the payrolls of the co-operating factories was 4.5 p.oe loser at the date under review than a year ago, since when the nwflber of wn has fallen by 7.4 p.o. The most recent proportion of workers of the latter sex was 219 per 10 000 on the payrolls, as ocaspared with 221 at Apr. 1, 224 at May 1 0 1953 0 216 at May 1, 1952, 230 at May 1, 1951, and 236 at May 1, 19500 Changes in Industrial Payrolls.- The industrial ocmapoaite index of weekly wages and salaries rose by 0.7 p.o. from Apr. 1, but was 1.0 p.o. lower than at May 1 of last year. The payroll disbursements were higher in all provinces except New Brunswick than for the week of Apr. 1. This was also the case in 21 of the metropolitan areas listed in Tables A and C. Among the major industrial divisions, the trend was dc,w1.rd in logging, mining and manufacturing, in which the amounts reported declined by 26.6 p.o., 0 0 8 p.o. and 0.4 p.o., respectively. The remaining industries shed increase, varying from 1.1 p.oe in trade, to 42 p.o. in transportation, storage and ooemnmication, and 7.2 p.o* in construction.
Changes in Per Capita Earnings.- The per oapita weekly wages and salaries reported in the major industrial divisions rose frost Apr. 1 by 8 cents to $59.14 at May 1, when the figure was exceeded only by that of $59.22 at Mar. 1, 1954. A year ago, the average was $57.52. The increase in the 12-etonth comparison was 2.8 p.c., a smaller gain than was shown at May 1, 1953, in a similar oozaparison. There were quite widely distributed increases in the weekly earnings as oonpared with Apr. 1, both geographically and industrially. Changes in the industrial and occupational distributions of men and wen employed in the leading industries, with upward adjustsents in wage rates in se oases and longer working hours in others, were main factors contributing to the moderate general advance in average earnings at the date imder review. In manufacturing, the per capita figure of $61.28 established a new naximusi, 5.1 p.o. above its level a year earlier. Higher averages were indicated in both durable and non-durable manufactured goods categories, and in many of their oomtponent industries. The trend of earnings among the non-manufacturing ola..e sea was a iso gene rally favourable, the exceptions being forestry and construction. In the former, seasonal curtailment in operations occasioned a loss of 70 cents in the weekly average, whtoh was nevertheless a good deal higher than the figure recorded at the same date in earlier years. In construction, the falling off was largely seasonal, reflecting the employment of rnmrous additional workers at rates of pay below the general average for the industry. Changes in the 11jor Industrial Divisions.- There was a further small contraction in employment in manufacturing at ly 1, the index declining by 0.5 p.o. from Apr. 1. The ohange at the beginning of May in preceding years, usually slight, has generally been upward. The latest index was 5.1 p.c. below its position 12 months earlier. The number of workers reported in plants producing durable manufactured goods fell by 008 p.oe in the mouth, while staffs in the non-durable manufactured goods industries were less by 0.3 p.c. Employment in the former group was 6.3 p.ce below its level at the beginning of May, 1955, since when the working forces of factories turning out non-durable manuf acture d foods have declined by 3.7 p.c. Among the durable manufactured goods classes, the trend in the month was upward in the wood and non-tallio mineral products groups, which showed seasonal increases of 0.4 p.c. and 1.7 p.o., respectively. Transportation .quipaent, iron and steel products, óleotrioal apparatus and supplies and non-ferrous metal works afforded less

-5employment; the lose of alaost 2 p.o. in the e].eotrioal equipeent group was most pronounced. The payrolls in the heavy manufactured goods division declined by 0.6 p.o. The average weekly 'wages and salaries, however, rose to a new rmxivnmt of $65 0 62 at May 1. Within the light manufacturing industries, the most noteworthy gain, (2.4 p.c.), was that of a seasonal oharaoter in the food and beverage olase, all sub-groups of which reported some iprovenent with the exooption of biscuits and crackers, Pulp and paper, p.troleue and coal product and ohemiosi factories afforded rather more employment than a month earlier. On the other h&nd, there were losses in the tobacco, leather, textile, knitting, clothing and miscellaneous manufacturing groups* in some oases, the moderate declines were seasonal. Little general ohange was noted in rubber and printing and publishing plants at the beginning of May. Among the non-menu! aoturing classes covered by the monthly survey, there wa. general though not particularly marked expansion, except in logging and mining. In the former, the seasonal ourtai]aient in personnel amounted to 25.7 p.o., reduoing the May 1 index to a point 15.4 p.cs lamer than at the sm date in 19531 payrolls were less by 26.6 p.ce than at Apr. 1, and by 7.1 p.ce than at May 1 of last year. The decline in employment in miniflg was 1.6 p.c., largely reflecting slackness in the fuel group, in which it was partly seasonal in ohsraoter. The extraotion of goid and of non..inetals, on the other hand, afforded rather more employment. The weekly wages and salaries disbursed in mining as a whole were 2.6 p.c, lower than a month ago* Employment in the transportation, storage and ooemiunioation and conatruotion gripe mounted by 50 p.o. and 9 9 8 p.o., respectively, showing gains that were somewhat smeller than those indicated a year ago. Moderate increases were recorded in public utilities, trade, finance, insurance and real estate, and services, aocoapaniad by relatively larger gains in the weekly wages and salaries, so that the per capita figures were also higher. The general movement was favnurable at May 1 in all Charges in the Provinces. provinces exoeg Nova ocia and New Brunswick, where substantial seasonal losses in employment were recorded in transportation. Logging was also curtailed in the latter area, in whioh manufacturing was quieter. In Nova Scotia, coal mining released employees, but manufacturing and construction shamed improvement. The level of industrial employment in Quebec at the date under review was 1.1 p.oe higher than at Apr. 1, but 401 p.oe lower than at May 1, 1955. There was a seasonal reduction of 41.6 p.c* in logging compared with a month previously. Manufacturing released a smell number of workers. Activity increased the remaining industrial groups covered by the survey. The most noteworthy gains in Quebec took place in construction and transportation, storage and otimioation. No general change in the situation was indicated in Ontario. Forestry and manufacturing reported lessened employment, while moderate improvement was recorded in oonatruotion, transportation, storage and comnunicatton, trade and services. These industries in Manitoba and Saskatchewan also reported heightened activity. In Manitoba, there were losses in the month in logging and manufacturinge, Employment deolined in forestry, mining and manufacturing in Alberta, but staffs were larger in oonetruotion, transportation, storage and communication. The trends in all major industries in British Coluebia were favourable, logging showing the greatest advances. The sum dietribited in weekly wages and salaries were higher than at Apr. 1
in all provinces except New Brunswick, where they declined by 591 p.o., and Nova Scotia,
where no change on the whole was indicated. The per capita weekly earnings at May 1 were lower than a month earlier in Newfoundland, New Brunewiok and Quebec, but elsewhere the movement was upward. In all areas except Newfoundland the averages exceeded those reported at the beginning of hay in 1955.

-7Changes in the Metropolitan Arose.- Higher levels of enployment were reported in just over half of the more populous oities at May 1, the trend being favourable in 17 of the centres listed in Tables A and C. The largest gains, of 5.4 p.o. and 5.6 p.o., were in Three Rivers and 8ernia, respectively. Greeter activity was recorded in menufacturing end transportation in Three Rivers, and in oonatruOtion and transportation in Barnia. The most pronounced curtailment in staffs as cospared with Apr. 1 was in Halifax and Saint John, where losses of 59 6 p.o. and 6.2 p.o., respectively, largely reflected seasonal deolinee in shipping operations. Firms in 5 of the mejor metropolitan areas - Montreal, Toronto and Wimipag reported a higher level of industrial activity, eiiployment rising by 1.2 p.o., 0.2 p.o. and 09 7 p.c., reap.otively, at the date under review. The Vancouver index .hd a fractional deorease. Manufacturing in these cities was quieter, but trends in most of the non-sianufaoturing industries were mod.rately upeard. The weekly payrolls distributed for the week of May 1 were loser than a month earlier in 11 centres. The reductions ranged between 0.1 p.o. in 3t. Catherines and 5.8 p.o. in 8aint John. The increases recorded in the rining cities ve.riad from 0.1 p.c. in Niagara Pails and London to 7.9 p.c. in Sault Ste. Marie and 9 9 0 p.o. in Bernie. The considerable gain in Sault Ste. Marie resulted from. a return to more usual working oondittons disrnpt.d by a short strike in the pay period reported a month earlier. The disbursements in the 4 largest metropolitan areas exceeded those indicat.d for the week of Apr. 1. The per capita wages and salaries were higher in the week of M&y 1 than in that of Apr. 1 in 19 centres. The changes, either upivard or dowz.rd, were smell in most oases, the exceptions being Sault Ste. Marie, Sarnia, Oehawa and Victoria. In the first.. named, a considerable increase of $ 5.63 reflected more usual working hours than in the preceding survey. More premiun overtime and longer working hours were nainly responsible for a rise of $2930 in the average in Sarnia and $1.68 in Oshawa, while a d.olins of $105 in the per capita earnings in Victoria at May 1 was due to a reverse situation, there being a reduction in overtime work in some induatriss and shortened hours in others as ocepar.d with the week of Apr. 1.

EXPlANATORY NølE8. General.- The monthly surveys of employment and weekly payrolls relate to all branohea of the industries listed in the table given in the following industrial coverage statement, exoopt serrices, in ithich the industries represented consist mainly of hotels, restaurants, laundries and dry-cleaning estahlisomnts, recreational and business services. The surveys do not cover firma usually employing less than 15 persona, the number of which is very large in relation to their employee totals s es1abliehaients reducing their staffs below this miniaim are not neoessarily removed from the mailing list. Data are requested from all classes of employees, irrespective of their functions in the busineesi statistics for the owners are excluded. Employers operating in two or more lines of business, or in different provinces or cities, are asked to furnish separate monthly returns for their establishments in the different units. 1. Coverage,- Virtual limitation of the surveys to firms with staff. of 15 and over results in a large and relatively even coverage of total employment in the included industries in the provinces and the oitios for which data are segregated. The industrial representation, though large, is more uneven, the proportion of workers covered depending upon the organisation of particular industries in larger or smaller units or operation. Complete information respecting the area and industry distributions of the working population is availabl, only when the Decennial Censuses are talcen. In 1951, data were not segregated for paid workers sotually at work. The following estimates of cove rage in the monthly surveys therefore are conservative since they relate employees of the reporting firma to all employees with jobs, including those absent from work without pay, so that they would not have been included in the monthly statistics of employment, payrolls and man-hours I Estimated Industrial Coverage, Jwm l 1951.

It is important to note that the statistics of employees reported, as published in the monthly bulletins, do not represent estites of totel number, of paid workers in specified areas or industries, but show only the distributions of men and women on the staffs of the 00-operating employers at the indicated dates, including their full tim., part-time and casual employees. 2. The Questionnaire used in the monthly surveys asks employers to state the number of wage-earners and salaried employee, drawing pay in the last pay periods in the mouths, with their payroll disbursements in the same periods. Workers on strike during the reported pay periods are not included in the statistics unless they draw pay from their employerj for example, take paid holidays during the dispute • Workers laid off during the pay period as an indirect effect of industrial disputes are not counted as employed. Employees and earnings are grouped according to the duration of their pay periods monthly, semimonthly, fortnightly, weekly, etc. aross payrolls are requested, before deduotions are made for tames, unemployment insuranoe contributions, etc. Ovsrtime payments, cost-of-living allowances, commissions, incentive and production bonuses are included, as are payments for absences with pay in the reported pay periods. The statistics do not include employers' contributions to unemployment insurance, compensation and other welfare plans, nor do they include amounts paid for pensions, retirement gratuities, bonuses paid at irregular or infrequent intervals, and various other supplementary labour costs. 5, The Processing... Statistics of wages and salaries reported for any period exceeding a week are reduced for tabulation purposes to one week's proportion of the total., the numerators of the fractions used for this purpose being 6, 6 or 7 days, depending upon the number of days per week on which the establishments operated in the pay periodj the denominators of the fractions are the numbers of working days in the different pay period. • For employees paid at annual or monthly rates, whose earnings are not affected by variations in the number of working days in the month, fixed proportions are used to r.duoe the earnings to a weekly basic, irrespeotive of the length of the calendar month. The sums resulting from these various calculations are then aggregated to give the total amounts which would be paid for .ervioes rendered in one week by the employees of the co-operating firms. The workers reported are not necessarily employed for a period of a week by any one .stablis}ucent. In order to reduce duplication in the statistios of employment where individuals may appear on the payrolls of more than one employer in a period of several weeks, respondents are asked to furnish data only for the last pay period in the month for their various classes of employs... 'Mainly hotels, restaurants, laundries, dry-cleaning plants, recreational and business services.
II 4. The Tabulation.- The material tabulated each month shows the nixther of workers drawing pay from the establishments turniahing return., and the weekly earnings of such employees, with similar information for the men and wn employed by the same firm a month earlier, and in the basic period (1949). The statistios of the first tabulation for each month are preliminary-; the re-tabulation of the data on the suooeeding month's tabulation permits incorporation of revisions in the material originally tabulated, and the inolue ion of returns received too late for the prlimixmrv- tabulation. 5. The Index Nuebers.- The index munbera of employment and payrolls represent the percentage relationships between the employees of the establishment, currently furnishing data and their aggregate weekly earnings, and the corresponding 1949 averages of these employers. The 1949 figures of employment and payroll, for firms which have since gone out of busines, are oontinued in the basic averages firm or branches opening for business since 1949 are tabulated with nero base figures. The basio averages of establishments which operated in 1949 but have since been added to the nailing list, have been incorporated in the base figures from the date when their co-operation was first obtained. The index utunbersof average weekly wages and salaries relate the average earnings of persons employed by the reporting firma at a given date to the average earnings of their employees in 1949 s 6. The Weekly Wgss and Salaries.- The statistics of average weekly earnings result from the division of the aggregate weekly wages and salaries disbursed in the last pay periods in the month by the co-operating establishment., by the number of their full time and part-time employees in the same periods. The figures repre sent gross earnings, before deductions are made for unemployment insurance contributions, tames, etc. In addition to basic wagss and salaries, the earnings include overtime payments, shift premiues, ocesnissions, cost-of-living, incentive and production bonuses • and other bonuses paid at frequent intervals. They also include amounts paid employees absent on leave with pay during the reported pay period., i.e., during vacation., statutory holidays, siok leave, eto. The earnings do not inolude the value of free board and lodging and other perquisites, employers' contributions to unemployment insurance, workment s oosensation end other welfare funds. Also excluded are the cost to employers of certain other employee benefits, such as bonuses paid at irregular or infrequent intervals, (o.g.,annual bonuses), pensions, retirement gratuities, eto. The revised figures of earnings in the monthly bulletins incorporate retroactive pay for one month s corrections in the material originally tabulated, end data received too late for inclusion in the first tabulation; for the most part, such edjusthents are not carried baok f or more than one month. 7. Hourly, Earnings.- Statistics of average hours and average hourly and weekly earnings of wage-earners for whom the reporting employers keep record of hours worked are contained in the monthly bulletin, on men-hours and hourly earnings. Footnotes. The following notes explain the content of various industrial classes listed in the detailed tables in this bulletin. In some industries, the group breakdown is lets extensive than in the Standard Industrial Classifioationp in these cases, figures for certain categories not shown are oontained in the group totals.
