Notes:
- Employment–includes jobs held by people employed directly in the following industries: forestry and logging, support activities for forestry, pulp and paper product manufacturing, and wood product manufacturing.
- Natural Resources Canada–Canadian Forest Service prefers to use employment data from Statistics Canada’s System of National Accounts (SNA) because these data are linked to the underlying framework used to compile the Canadian System of National Accounts.
- SEPH data focuses on industry and can be used for comparing direct company employment in forestry with that in other sectors.

Statistics Canada. Table 38-10-0285-01 (formerly CANSIM 388-0010): Natural resources satellite account, indicators (x 1,000,000). (accessed May 29, 2020).
Notes:
- Natural Resources Canada prefers to use employment data from Statistics Canada’s System of National Accounts (SNA) because these data are linked to the underlying framework used to compile the Canadian System of Natural Economic Accounts (e.g., GDP, national wealth).
- Employment data can also be sourced from Statistics Canada’s Survey of Employment, Payrolls and Hours, and the Natural Resources Satellite Account (NRSA).
- Data from Statistics Canada’s Natural Resources Satellite Account (NRSA) are a key source of information on the economic contribution of the forest sector in Canada. The NRSA is able to capture economic activity in forest industry segments that have traditionally been difficult to measure, such as wood furniture manufacturing.

Note: The calculations for indirect employment were changed in 2019 to better account for employment in the forest sector. This change affects data for 2018 and going forward. Retroactive changes to previous year’s data have not been applied at this time.
