Xiao Chen said in a previous article: Immigration is not a decision that can be made with a hot brain, it represents the beginning of a new life. There are many factors to consider for immigration, and "employment" is one of the important onesAfter all, everyone wants to find new opportunities for development in a foreign country.
Is it easy to find a job after immigrating to Canada? The following data may give you the answer.
On January 5, 2024, Statistics Canada released the 2023 Migrant Workforce Characteristics Report. It covers the employment of immigrants from different countries, different age groups, different genders, and different stages.
Also focus on **The link between the employment rate of core working-age immigrants and the length of time they stay in Canada.
This report surveys people from different parts of the worldPermanent residents over the age of 15Employment in Canada. Overall, their average employment rate in 2023 is 627%。
Specific to the continents:
Immigrants from Africa have the highest employment rate, accounting for 677%
Immigrants from Asia ranked second, with an employment rate of 663%
Employment from Latin America is also good, reaching 66 per cent
The employment rate of immigrants from North America is 566%
And the employment rate of immigrants from Europe is the lowest, at 511%
It is worth noting that the immigration statistics in this data specifically refer to the "landed immigration" of permanent residents who have already landed. Temporary workers on temporary visas, groups of international students, and citizens who were born or naturalized in Canada do not fall into this category.
The above figure is for all permanent residents over the age of 15. If the focus is on the core working-age group of 25 to 54 years old, then the average employment rate rises to 826%。
Specific to each state:
Immigrants from Europe have the highest employment rate, accounting for 883%
Latin America ranked second, accounting for 828%
Those from North America followed with an employment rate of 827%
The employment rate of immigrants from Asia is 817%
from Africa was the lowest, but also reached 798%
It can also be seen that the employment habits of people in different parts of the world are differentFor example, Asians often choose to work while studying, and after the age of 55, we also choose to work to find our own value. Europeans, on the other hand, concentrate on what they do at what stage, and their employment time is more concentrated.
Let's take a look at this reportThe link between the employment rate of core working-age immigrants and the length of time they have been in Canada.
The data shows thatImmigrants who have stayed for more than ten years have the highest employment rate, while newcomers (immigrants within the last five years) have the lowest employment rate.
Statistics Canada data shows that the employment rate data for core working-age immigrants in 2023 is as follows:
In advance5 years or lessTime to land immigrants:
In advance5 to 10 yearsLanded immigrants:
In advance10 yearsLanded immigrants:
The overall employment rate of landed immigrants in 2023 is 826%，The employment rate of the core working-age population born in Canada (86.)3%), which is 4 percentage points lower.
In fact, it is understandable that old immigrants have a higher employment rate than new immigrantsAfter all, it takes time for new immigrants to adapt to Canada, and they are certainly not as good as old immigrants who have integrated into the local area in terms of employment. Another set of data on the unemployment rate supports this view.
The same trend associated with better employment outcomes for longer periods of time after arrival in Canada can also be found in the unemployment rate for core working-age immigrants in 2023.
The following is an overview of the core working-age immigrants in 2023Unemployment Rate:

Immigrants who landed years ago:
This unemployment rate is already a very good figure, because, according to Statistics Canada,Canada's unemployment rate stabilized at 5 in December 20238%, while the unemployment rate of immigrants who have been on land for more than 5 years is below average.
In recent years, Canada's economy has continued to slow, and the employment rate of immigrants has been declining since 2019. Since reaching 81% in 2019, the employment rate for immigrants in Canada for 5-10 years has dropped to 74 in 20204%。However, in 2023, both the employment rate of all Canadian residents and the employment rate of immigrants will reach the highest level in the past six years.
It can be seen from thisCanada's economy is growing steadilyFor newcomers, there are plenty of new opportunities to explore in Canada's fertile soil.
According to Statistics Canada's demographic analysis,Canada is now nearThe 1.8 million Chinese, no matter what age they are when they come to Canada, believe it is not difficult to integrate. So if you're still struggling with the choice** to be the ideal destination to move to, consider Canada!
