COVID-19 causes a respiratory type infection that is mild in most of the population but can be more severe in those who are older adults or those with chronic underlying conditions. Having a disability alone may not put you at higher risk for getting COVID-19 or having severe illness if you do get COVID-19. However, some people with disabilities might be at a higher risk of infection or severe illness because of their age, underlying medical conditions or their disability which could put them at greater risk of being exposed and acquiring the infection.

Canada Pension Plan (CPP) Disability Benefits by Class of Diagnosis includes distribution of beneficiaries by age group updated on an annual basis. This annually updated table represents beneficiaries in pay as of December of each year. In order to ensure client confidentiality, an 'X' has been placed where the number of clients receiving a particular benefit is equal to or below 9. In order to avoid residual disclosure, an 'X' has also been placed where the next number of clients was found, which may be lowest below, equal to, or above 9.

This map presents the full data available on the MLTSD GeoHub, and maps several of the key variables reflected by the Second Career Program of ETD.The Second Career program provides training to unemployed or laid-off individuals to help them find employment in high demand occupations in Ontario. The intention of the SC program is to return individuals to employment by the most cost effective path. Second Career provides up to $28,000 to assist laid-off workers with training-related costs such as tuition, books, transportation, and basic living expenses, based on individual need. Additional allowances may be available for people with disabilities, and for clients needing help with the costs of dependent care, living away from home and literacy and basic skills upgrading, also based on individual need. People with disabilities may also be given extensions on training and upgrading durations, to meet their specific needs. Clients may be required to contribute to their skills training, based on the client’s total annual gross household income and the number of household members.About This DatasetThis dataset contains data on SC clients for each of the twenty-six Local Board (LB) areas in Ontario for the 2015/16 fiscal year, based on data provided to Local Boards and Local Employment Planning Councils (LEPC) in June 2016 (see below for details on Local Boards). These clients have been distributed across Local Board areas based on the client’s home address, not the address of their training institution(s).Different variables in this dataset cover different groups of Second Career clients, as follows:Demographic and skills training variables are composed of all SC clients that started in 2015/16.At exit outcome variables are composed of all SC clients that completed their program in 2015/16.12-month outcome variables are composed of all SC clients that completed a 12-month survey in 2015/16.The specific variables that fall into each of the above categories are detailed in the Technical Dictionary. As a result of these differences, not all variables in this dataset are comparable to the other variables in this dataset; for example, the outcomes at exit data is not the outcomes for the clients described by the demographic variables.About Local BoardsLocal Boards are independent not-for-profit corporations sponsored by the Ministry of Labour, Training and Skills Development to improve the condition of the labour market in their specified region. These organizations are led by business and labour representatives, and include representation from constituencies including educators, trainers, women, Francophones, persons with disabilities, visible minorities, youth, Indigenous community members, and others. For the 2015/16 fiscal year there were twenty-six Local Boards, which collectively covered all of the province of Ontario. The primary role of Local Boards is to help improve the conditions of their local labour market by:engaging communities in a locally-driven process to identify and respond to the key trends, opportunities and priorities that prevail in their local labour markets;facilitating a local planning process where community organizations and institutions agree to initiate and/or implement joint actions to address local labour market issues of common interest;creating opportunities for partnership development activities and projects that respond to more complex and/or pressing local labour market challenges; andorganizing events and undertaking activities that promote the importance of education, training and skills upgrading to youth, parents, employers, employed and unemployed workers, and the public in general.In December 2015, the government of Ontario launched an eighteen-month Local Employment Planning Council pilot program, which established LEPCs in eight regions in the province formerly covered by Local Boards. LEPCs expand on the activities of existing Local Boards, leveraging additional resources and a stronger, more integrated approach to local planning and workforce development to fund community-based projects that support innovative approaches to local labour market issues, provide more accurate and detailed labour market information, and develop detailed knowledge of local service delivery beyond Employment Ontario (EO).Eight existing Local Boards were awarded LEPC contracts that were effective as of January 1st, 2016. As such, from January 1st, 2016 to March 31st, 2016, these eight Local Boards were simultaneously Local Employment Planning Councils. The eight Local Boards awarded contracts were:Durham Workforce AuthorityPeel-Halton Workforce Development GroupWorkforce Development Board - Peterborough, Kawartha Lakes, Northumberland, HaliburtonOttawa Integrated Local Labour Market PlanningFar Northeast Training BoardNorth Superior Workforce Planning BoardElgin Middlesex Oxford Workforce Planning & Development BoardWorkforce Windsor-EssexMLTSD has provided Local Boards and LEPCs with demographic and outcome data for clients of Employment Ontario (EO) programs delivered by service providers across the province on an annual basis since June 2013. This was done to assist Local Boards in understanding local labour market conditions. These datasets may be used to facilitate and inform evidence-based discussions about local service issues – gaps, overlaps and under-served populations - with EO service providers and other organizations as appropriate to the local context.Data on the following EO programs for the 2015/16 fiscal year was made available to Local Boards and LEPCs in June 2016: Employment Services (ES)Literacy and Basic Skills (LBS) Second Career (SC) ApprenticeshipThis dataset contains the 2015/16 SC data that was sent to Local Boards and LEPCs. Datasets covering past fiscal years will be released in the future.Terms and Definitions

NOC – The National Organizational Classification (NOC) is an occupational classification system developed by Statistics Canada and Human Resources and Skills Development Canada to provide a standard lexicon to describe and group occupations in Canada primarily on the basis of the work being performed in the occupation. It is a comprehensive system that encompasses all occupations in Canada in a hierarchical structure. At the highest level are ten broad occupational categories, each of which has a unique one-digit identifier. These broad occupational categories are further divided into forty major groups (two-digit codes), 140 minor groups (three-digit codes), and 500 unit groups (four-digit codes). This dataset uses four-digit NOC codes from the 2011 edition to identify the training programs of Second Career clients.Notes

The 1991 Health Activity Limitation Survey (HALS) is a post-censal survey used to identify the number and distribution of persons with disabilities in Canada and the barriers experienced by them in such areas as housing, employment, transportation, education, community support, and recreation. The Health and Activity Limitation Survey (HALS) was designed to collect data for a national database on disability. HALS is a post-censal survey, i.e., its survey frame is provided by the answers to two filter questions on the census questionnaire. It was first conducted after the 1986 Census of Population, and repeated after the 1991 census. It was not conducted after the 1996 census due to budget constraints. Survey year: 1991. Although there are some differences between the 1986 HALS and the 1991 HALS with respect to content and levels of geography, the objectives of the two surveys remain largely the same. The objectives for HALS are: to include persons with disabilities residing in the Yukon and Northwest Territories; to interview a sufficient number of persons with disabilities to enable the release of data for subprovincial areas (e.g. 17 Census Metropolitan Areas) as well as data on disabilities due to conditions that have a low prevalence. The target population of the 1991 HALS consisted of all persons with a physical, sensory, or psychological disability who were living in Canada at the 1991 Census, including residents of the Yukon and Northwest Territories, and permanent residents of most collective dwellings and health-care institutions. Although Indian reserves and settlements were included in the 1986 HALS, they were excluded from the 1991 HALS. Disablity data for Indian reserves and settlements may be obtained from the 1991 Aboriginal Peoples Survey, also conducted by Statistics Canada. Persons excluded for operational reasons were residents of penal institutions, correctional facilities, military camps, campgrounds and parks, soup kitchens, merchant and coastguard ships, and children's group homes. Data collection for the Household Survey took place in the Fall of 1991, immediately after the 1991 Census. Approximately 35,000 individuals were selected for the "yes" sample and 113,000 for the "no" sample, yielding a total of 148,000 adults and children for the household survey. Approximately 20% (or 7,000) of persons in the "yes" sample proved to have no disability according to HALS' criteria. For the 1986 HALS both a "yes" and a "no" sample were also selected. The "yes" sample size of 112,000 was significally larger in 1986 than in 1991, while the "no" sample of 72,5000 was smaller for the 1986 HALS. Due to a larger sample size for the 1986 HALS, data are available from the 1986 HALS for 200 sub-provincial areas and 19 CMAs. For detailed description of the differences between the 1986 and the 1991 HALS, please refer to Appendix B. The Household Survey was carried out in two stages. The first stage involved adding two questions to the 1991 Census long questionnaire, and the second involved conducting the actual survey for adults and children. Data collection for the Institutions Survey was carried out from January to March, 1992. All interviews were conducted in person and, whenever possible, with the selected individual. However, due to their conditions, many residents were not able to answer the questions themselves. In these cases the interviews were conducted with the help of institutional staff or next-of-kin. The response rate for the Institutions Survey was 96%.
