Labour Market Information at HRSDC
Human Resources and Skills Development Canada (HRSDC) Internet sites have
been evolving. Please let me take this opportunity to provide some directions to
HRSDC Labour Market Information on the Internet.
Our Labour Market Information homepage is
http://www.labourmarketinformation.ca/ Click on a heading, for example, click on
Build Your Occupational Profile. Then select your Province or Territory, and
your Area. Then you may search by occupation title, list of analyzed
occupations, NOC codes or Job Type. If you select Ontario, Toronto, List of
Analyzed Occupations, a list will appear, containing about 55 occupational
profiles written by Toronto/York Labour Market Information Analysts. The menu
under the LMI symbol contains other features, such as Who Hires which lists
employers linked to particular occupations. Please explore the other features of
the site listed in the menu.
The HRSDC homepage is http://www.hrsdc.gc.ca/ Please select your choice of
official language. Scroll down to Services Where You Live. Select Ontario.
Scroll down to Region Specific - Services for Individuals. Here you will find
headings to explore including Career Planning, Financial Benefits, Jobs - Job
Bank - Ontario and:
The heading About the Local Labour Market leads to local Labour Market
Bulletins.
The heading More LMI leads to the page Ontario Regional Services: More LMI.
