18 Summary of Key Employment Trends 1. 16% of all jobs in Peel were people with no fixed place of work (11% ) and people who worked at home (6%). 2. Though manufacturing jobs were lost recently, they were replaced by other sectors. However, this still did not help achieve the employment forecasts from Places to Grow or Amendment 2 background estimates. 3. Industrial supply/absorption has not recovered to pre-recession levels. 4. There are more businesses in Peel between 2001 and 2011, but employees per business is declining from 8.3 employees per business to 6.6 employees per business.

19 Impact of Employment Trends on Land Requirements Industrial FSW is increasing as a result of decline in manufacturing jobs and increase in land transportation/warehousing uses which requires lots of space. Those that do not have a fixed place of work and those that work from home (16%) reduces the need for land required to accommodate employment. 19
