Government of British Columbia data includes estimated full-time equivalent positions, headcount, and total labor costs for public sector employers. Total labor costs encompass employer-paid wages, benefits, and statutory benefits. The data is collected by surveying organizations prior to major collective bargaining cycles and updated periodically.
