Understanding TFW Data by Province
Canada's Temporary Foreign Worker (TFW) program operates across all provinces and territories, with varying levels of usage depending on local labor market conditions. This page provides a comprehensive overview of LMIA (Labour Market Impact Assessment) data across all Canadian regions.
What is LMIA Data?
An LMIA is a document that Canadian employers may need to obtain before hiring a foreign worker. The data shown here represents employers who have received positive LMIAs, allowing them to hire temporary foreign workers for specific positions.
Non-Compliant Employers
Non-compliant employers are businesses found to have violated the terms of the TFW program. Violations can result in monetary penalties and bans from the program. We track this data to promote transparency and help workers make informed decisions.
Provincial Variations
TFW program usage varies significantly across provinces. Ontario and British Columbia typically see the highest usage due to larger populations and diverse industries. Alberta has significant usage in the oil and gas sector, while the Atlantic provinces often use the program for seasonal agricultural and fishing work.
