The Labour Force Survey (LFS) is a household survey carried out monthly by Statistics Canada. Since its inception in 1945, the objectives of the LFS have been to divide the working-age population into three mutually exclusive classifications - employed, unemployed, and not in the labour force - and to provide descriptive and explanatory data on each of these categories. Data from the survey provide information on major labour market trends such as shifts in employment across industrial sectors, hours worked, labour force participation and unemployment rates, employment including the self-employed, full and part-time employment, and unemployment. It publishes monthly standard labour market indicators such as the unemployment rate, the employment rate and the participation rate. The LFS is a major source of information on the personal characteristics of the working-age population, including age, sex, marital status, educational attainment, and family characteristics. Employment estimates include detailed breakdowns by demographic characteristics, industry and occupation, job tenure, and usual and actual hours worked. This dataset is designed to provide the user with historical information from the Labour Force Survey. The tables included are monthly and annual, with some dating back to 1976. Most tables are available by province as well as nationally. Demographic, industry, occupation and other indicators are presented in tables derived from the LFS data. The information generated by the survey has expanded considerably over the years with a major redesign of the survey content in 1976 and again in 1997, and provides a rich and detailed picture of the Canadian labour market. Some changes to the Labour Force Survey (LFS) were introduced which affect data back to 1987. There are three reasons for this revision: The revision enables the use of improved population benchmarks in the LFS estimation process. These improved benchmarks provide better information on the number of non-permanent residents There are changes to the data for the public and private sectors from 1987 to 1999. In the past, the data on the public and private sectors for this period were based on an old definition of the public sector. The revised data better reflects the current public sector definition, and therefore result in a longer time series for analysis. The geographic coding of several small Census Agglomerations (CA) has been updated historically from 1996 urban centre boundaries to 2001 CA boundaries. This affects data from January 1987 to December 2004. It is important to note that the changes to almost all estimates are very minor, with the exception of the public sector series and some associated industries from 1987 to 1999. Rates of unemployment, employment and participation are essentially unchanged, as are all key labour mark et trends. The article titled Improvements in 2006 to the LFS (also under the LFS Documentation button) provides an overview of the effect of these changes on the estimates. The seasonally-adjusted tables have been revised back three years (beginning with January 2004) based on the latest seasonal output.
As of the first quarter of 2025, there were approximately *****million people employed in the construction sector in the UK, compared with just over ****million in the first quarter of 2000.

From the first half of 2020 until the second half of 2021, Australia’s construction industry was disrupted due to the coronavirus pandemic. The industry had seen a steady rise in employment between 2015 and 2019, with the number of employees recovering to just over 1.27 million in 2022. As of November 2024, construction industry employment stood at approximately 1.36 million. How important is the construction industry? The construction industry plays a major economic role in Australia. The value of private sector construction was significantly higher than the value of public sector construction. Combined, these sectors cover engineering construction work, non-residential building, and residential building. Engineering construction work, which encompasses infrastructure, was the most predominant of the three. The value of residential construction work completed across Australia’s private and public sectors amounted to over 30 billion Australian dollars higher than that of non-residential construction work. Job outlook The leading occupations in Australia's construction industry were carpenters and joiners. Roles within this industry vary greatly, with many entry-level jobs not requiring a tertiary education degree. In terms of trade work, apprenticeships and traineeships were the main pathways to enter the market. While the job outlook has been relatively robust in this industry, the construction labor productivity index has been lower in recent years. On top of this, challenges faced in recent years, such as fluctuating material costs, project delays, and skilled worker shortages, could slow down growth in this industry.

Construction machinery lessors play a crucial role by leasing heavy construction and transportation equipment to support downstream construction markets. The advantages of renting are particularly beneficial for contractors as it alleviates them from bearing the burdens of depreciation and maintenance costs, ultimately contributing to increased revenue for lessors. The appeal of renting is heightened because many contractors lack adequate space to store machinery. While the pandemic caused slumps among commercial and industrial markets, low-interest rates spurred an uptick in residential projects, providing a cushion for lessors. As the pandemic waned, interest rates spiked as inflationary concerns crept up, weakening residential construction. Even so, this prompted industrial and commercial sectors to resume projects that were held off. Overall, revenue for construction machinery lessors is set to swell at a CAGR of 1.3%, reaching $34.9 billion through the end of 2023, including a 1.6% hike in 2024 alone. Profitability has also remained steady as lessors can pass off equipment price hikes to renters. Increasing construction activity and continued government investment will aid performance through the end of 2029. The recently enacted Bipartisan Infrastructure Bill, extending funding for highways, bridges, roads and infrastructure projects until 2026, is set to generate many new business opportunities for rental companies. Residential activity is set to bounce back amid expected interest rate cuts, which also lower the cost of borrowing, making rentals less expensive. With barriers to entry remaining low, an influx of new lessors will enter the mix. Even so, larger lessors will seek economies of scale and continue acquiring smaller businesses to expand their services. Revenue is set to expand at a CAGR of 1.6% to $37.8 billion through the end of 2029.
