Canadian employers: Uneven access to labour market information

Key Findings: Two-thirds of Canadian employers rely on labour market information (LMI) for human resource management but the vast majority have difficulty finding and understanding LMI. The challenge is particularly acute among smaller employers. Employers say information related to wages, worker availability, and benefits is the most important but also the most difficult to find. The main challenge faced by employers is that LMI is outdated, difficult to find, and not specific enough to their needs.
