Occupation By Gender

Question

I have a faculty member looking for updated numbers of total and female workers by occupation in Canada. (He has 1991 and 1996). He is looking for all 713 categories of the National Occupational Classification. I know I can find this information in the Census for the main occupation categories, but he needs it broken down further.

I am hoping someone may know of a source ... since I am not at work today and am unable to spend time searching.

Answer

I think that the following topic-based tabulation from the 2006 Census will meet the faculty member's needs:

Occupation - National Occupational Classification for Statistics 2006 (720), Class of Worker (6) and Sex (3) for the Labour Force 15 Years and Over. Canada, Provinces, Territories, Census Metropolitan Areas and Census Agglomerations - Cat. No. 97-559-X2006011.

You can download it from the StatCan website at: http://www12.statcan.gc.ca/english/census06/data/topics/RetrieveProductTable.cfm?TPL=RETR&ALEVEL=3&APATH=3&CATNO=&DETAIL=0&DIM=&DS=99&FL=0&FREE=0&GAL=0&GC=99&GK=NA&GRP=1&IPS=&METH=0&ORDER=1&PID=92104&PTYPE=88971,97154&RL=0&S=1&ShowAll=No&StartRow=1&SUB=743&Temporal=2006&Theme=74&VID=0&VNAMEE=&VNAMEF=
