Alberta Ministry of Labour 2015 Alberta Wage and Salary Survey

Transcription

1 Alberta Ministry of Labour 2015 Alberta Wage and Salary Survey The Alberta Wage and Salary Survey is undertaken by the Alberta Ministry of Labour to provide current wage rates and skill shortage information on various occupations in Alberta, and in specific industries and Economic Regions. This labour market information helps Alberta employers to fine tune their compensation and recruitment strategies, helps individuals make career and education choices, and aids the provincial government in developing effective policies and providing services. Construction Industry Summary Report SURVEY RESULTS The survey was completed with 562 employers in the Construction industry sector who provided information on over 25,348 employees in various occupational classifications 1. Survey data were collected between January and July Alberta Wage and Salary Survey results by Four-Digit National Occupational Classification (NOC) for all of Alberta, by industry group, and by geographic area can be found at WAGES FOR SELECTED OCCUPATIONS The following table illustrates the wage survey results associated with some common occupations within this industry 2. The tables below present results for three-digit NOC minor groups and for four-digit NOCs.

Only occupations with a minimum number of reportable observations were selected. Some occupations common to this industry may not be listed if sufficient reliable data were not available.

For example, 10 employers combined reported wages for 138 Labourers in Processing Manufacturing and Utilities - (NOC 961). Averages are calculated using data weighted by establishment to account for survey non-response (stratified by region, industry group and employer size) and by number of employees reported. n/a indicates that results have been suppressed due to missing data for some employers or due to calculation anomalies. Data Reliability Codes are based on coefficient of variation as an indicator of general reliability: A : coefficient of variation of less than or equal to ±6.00%, B : from ±6.01% to ±15.00%, C : from ± 15.01% to ±33.00%, D : more than ±33.01%.

12 Statistics on hiring activity, hiring difficulties, and employers reporting vacancies were calculated based on the number of employers responding for each question, weighted by establishment for survey non-response (stratified by region, industry group and employer size). Job Vacancy Rate for vacancies that had been unfilled for 4 months or more calculated as: Sum of Unfilled Vacancies / (Sum of Current + Sum of Unfilled Vacancies), with data weighted by establishment for survey non-response (stratified by industry group and employer size).

13 Industry Definition as per North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) Construction Sector (NAICS 23) This sector includes establishments primarily engaged in constructing, repairing and renovating buildings and engineering works, and in subdividing and developing land. These establishments may operate on their own account or under contract to other establishments. They may produce complete projects or just parts of projects. Establishments often subcontract some or all of the work involved in a project. Establishments may produce new construction, or undertake repairs and renovations to existing structures. A construction establishment may be the only establishment of an enterprise, or one of several establishments of an integrated real estate enterprise engaged in the land assembly, development, financing, building and sale of large projects. Establishments classified in this sector are known by a variety of trade designations depending on the scope of the projects they undertake, the degree of responsibility and risk that they assume, and the type of structure that they produce. Prime contractors are primarily engaged in the construction of complete works, while trade contractors primarily undertake a component of a project, under contract to a prime contractor or a principal. There are two main types of construction produced -buildings and engineering works. Buildings are distinguished by their primary function, such as residential, commercial and industrial. Engineering works include dams; non-building industrial works such as refineries; highways, roads and streets; bridges; sewers; power and communications transmission lines; and similar structures and works. Exclusion(s): Establishments primarily engaged in: Manufacturing and installing building equipment, such as power boilers; manufacturing pre-fabricated buildings (see NAICS 31-33, Manufacturing); Operating highways, streets and bridges (NAICS 48-49, Transportation and Warehousing); and Project management (NAICS 56, Administrative and Support, Waste Management and Remediation Services).
