Why should you care about Census?
The 2016 Census will be conducted in May. Census counts are used to collect vital information that will be used to plan, develop and evaluate programs and services that affect Canadians – including post-secondary education, healthcare and public transportation. The data collected is also used to plan infrastructure – including schools, housing and roads.
Statistics Canada is hiring more than 35,000 people across the country for various positions. The temporary, part-time positions include flexible work hours, competitive wages and are available in both rural and urban areas.
Application information can be found on the Census website.
