The Local Employment Planning Council (LEPC) Pilot

BACKGROUND AND CONTEXT Eight Local Employment Planning Councils are being piloted in Ontario, running from December 2015 to March 2019, with funding from the Ministry of Advanced Education and Skills Development (formerly Ministry of Colleges, Training and Universities). Building on the work done over the past four years by Labour Market Ottawa, Algonquin College won the bid to administer the Local Employment Planning Council (LEPC) pilot for the Ottawa community. The Ottawa LEPC, branded as “Ottawa Employment Hub”, works with three formal LEPC partners:

• Ottawa Chamber of Commerce • Rideau-Ottawa Valley Learning Network • Employment Ontario Ottawa Network

THE OTTAWA PILOT Who we are and how we work The LEPC is overseen by the Secretariat (eight staff) which is guided by the Executive Steering Group (ESG) in the Ottawa pilot. Working groups and the Central Planning Table feed into the ESG as advisory committees.

The LEPC pilots in Ontario Former ADM David Fulford, MAESD:

“Expanding the activities of existing Local Boards…the new LEPC pilots will have greater capacity to provide funding for community-based projects to support the local workforce, improve coordinated planning of employment and training services, and help employers, workers and people looking for work make informed choices about training and careers. LEPCs will also improve local labour market information to assist communities to better anticipate local labour gaps, and current and future employment opportunities.” Ottawa Employment Hub The Local Employment Planning Council (LEPC) in Ottawa has branded itself as Ottawa Employment Hub to reflect the dynamic activities included in its mandate; those activities, and the desired client outcomes, are reflected in its credo:

• Connect – we will connect with employers, service providers, and other stakeholders for mutual learning and leveraging each others’ knowledge and expertise to connect job seekers and learners to jobs.

• Plan – we will collaborate as a community to identify local opportunities and challenges in the local labour market.

• Learn & Work – through our connecting and planning, we will connect job seekers and learners to the programs and services that they need to become the human capital for which local employers are looking.

The Community Labour Market Plan ties in closely with two of the key activity areas for all LEPCs Integrated Planning The ministry expects LEPCs to serve as key mobilizers of employers, service providers, other ministries and levels of government operating locally, and other community groups to engage in more collaborative local planning

• Service planning (with Employment Ontario and non-Employment Ontario organizations) to identify and address service gaps and challenges for clients accessing services.

• Workforce development planning with local industry and community stakeholders, supported by local labour market information, to determine skills needs/future skills requirements and/or prevent skills shortages in growth sectors

Labour Market Information & Intelligence

• Expanding current understanding of local labour market issues and needs and improving access to labour market information resources for various community audiences (e.g., employers, service providers, levels of government, and other community stakeholders).

• While analysing and interpreting current data sources is part of this work, the ministry expects LEPCs to gather local labour market intelligence, and analyse and interpret the impacts on their community.

2017-18 Deliverables

Working within its governance structure, the Ottawa LEPC published its 2017-18 business plan in May 2017 to outline the locally-identified priorities for the June 2017 to September 2018 period of the pilot. It is organized under five key activity areas:

• Integrated Planning • Labour Market Information and Intelligence: • Service Coordination for Employers: • Research and Innovation: • Sharing Best Practices and Promising Approaches

The Community Labour Market Plan (CLMP) is a required operational activity for each LEPC pilot. OTTAWA LEPC - 2017-18 PERFORMANCE COMMITMENTS

Building the Community Labour Market Plan (CLMP)

Ottawa’s approach

The Community Labour Market Planning (CLMP) Report was submitted to MAESD in March 2018 for review, translation, and full publication by May 31, 2018. In Ottawa, we will be validating the initial report in further round of local consultations with our advisory committees and formal governance components over the next two months to review the data. The validated, public report will identify local labour market challenges, opportunities and recommendations to improve service coordination, integrated local planning, collecting and disseminating local labour market knowledge, and addressing identified local labour market challenges and opportunities.

Community consultations

During February 2018, Ottawa Employment Hub conducted more than 40 stakeholder interviews with members of our Executive Steering Group, Central Planning Table and Working Groups. We also held consultation sessions with each of these groups (five in total) to find out what our community wanted to include in the report. These interviews and consultations were also used to build the qualitative narrative around the full investigation of the “numbers.” Interviews focused on:

• Local workforce challenges and opportunities (the overall local labour market, industry trends, skills and occupations in demand or declining, challenges in recruitment and retention, opportunities that can be leveraged, barriers to employment).

• LMI and local priorities/actions (LMI requirements, priorities and key groups to engage).

• Role of the LEPC in moving forward (what we do well and what we could do differently; how to best engage stakeholders).

Most see Ottawa as a job seekers’ market right now with low unemployment and many opportunities. Some still see discrepancy between experience for which employers are looking and what job seekers have to offer. Ottawa considered a distinct and more complex, harder to predict, labour market than rest of Eastern Ontario. There is a growing tendency toward part-time work. More job seekers looking to starting their own business as an option (many looking at self-employment versus a start-up). Millennials want to focus more on work-life balance.

The Ottawa Picture Perceptions of the Local Labour Market

Ottawa is a “hot” job market right now There are still barriers for specific groups

• High number of students in Ottawa seen to impact on ability to find entry-level or low-skilled work for barriered clients and others who are new to the labour market

• Bilingual requirements impact job seekers’ ability to find work, especially for those whose first language may not be English or French

• Some report that finding entry-level work in Tech sector can still be a challenge for new grads and those new to Ottawa

Some labour shortages reported

• Reports of difficulty finding workers with technical skills in the Construction sector

• Always seems to be demand for certified trades people • Manufacturing sector has hard time finding and retaining people • Demand for experienced tech workers and both entry and senior

level people in specialized areas (Big Data, AI cybersecurity)

Mixed perceptions on key sectors

• Some feel that the Tech sector has not fully recovered and that finding entry level jobs can still be a challenge; several questions the actual size of the Tech sector in Ottawa in terms of number of local jobs created

• Others see Tech sector growth as key to Ottawa’s success; • Some perception that Public Admin jobs may decrease but

others see the fact that we are government town as offering lot of opportunities

Challenges and opportunities

• Employers seem more ready to spend in money bringing in experience from outside Ottawa versus investing in local talent

• Funding should focus on increasing skills and job readiness of barriered clients (perhaps instead of wage subsidies)

• Credential recognition seen as key for immigrants • Concern that automation will have impact on lower-skilled jobs

that are most suitable for some barriered clients • Non-profit sector (not government per se) could be leveraged

Who lives in Ottawa (2017 population)

Change in population by age group1

OVERALL POPULATION AND MIGRATION Over the past five years, Ottawa’s population increased by 8%, surpassing the growth rate for Ontario overall. Population growth is expected to slow down over the next 3 years in Ottawa, with only a 1% increase forecast. Growth is also expected to slow in Ontario overall (2% increase forecast). The background colours in the Change in population table on this page indicate where the 2012 population numbers would end up five years later, assuming no migration. For example, there were 50,183 people aged 0 to 4 years in 2012; if all of these people continued to live in Ottawa in 2017 and no new people arrived, you would expect the 2017 population number for those aged 5 to 9 years to match the 0 to 4 years figure from 2012. The table shows that the 2017 number was actually 52,898, indicating a net in-migration for that age cohort. Ottawa saw a net increase in population in the 15 to 29 year range that could be related to challenges around youth employment (as demand for jobs goes up with more people). This will be explored further when we look at Ottawa’s employment and labour force in the next section. The fact that Ottawa’s population is decreasing for those between 40 and 54 years may reflect some of the difficulty reported in finding mid-level workers for some skilled occupations.

Share of overall Ottawa population, 20163 2017 consultations pointed to these key population groups to explore further.

OTTAWA’S 2017 POPULATION PYRAMID4

Ottawa’s population pyramid shows that lower birth rates are being mitigated by increased immigration. Younger age groups tend to have slightly more males, while females account for a majority share as the population ages.

Data challenges around Persons with Disabilities A 2010 report5, referencing 2006 Census data, states: Ottawa’s disability prevalence increased during the period 2001-2006. In 2006, 149,425 people in Ottawa had disabilities, representing 17.7% of Ottawa’s population. This represents a 20% increase since 2001 (25,625 more individuals). LEPC Data Check Statistics Canada advises that Census filter questions should not be used to estimate disability because of the large number of 'false positives.' See the PWD section later in the report for more information.

IMMIGRATION TRENDS

In the past 5 years, the number of refugees landing in Ottawa is already at 67% of the total who landed in the previous 10 years. While the current share is lower than the 1980 to 1990 period (24% vs. 30%), this represents a much greater number of refugees than those who landed in 1980, due to overall immigration increases. Immigrant population (of those who arrived since 1980), by admission category and period of immigration, Ottawa, 20167

Immigrants make up 23% of the population (216,505) in 20168

• Established immigrants (>10 years) make up 17% of the overall population

• Recent immigrants (5-10 years) make up 3% of the population

• Very recent immigrants (newcomers here <5 years) make up 3% of the population

INDIGENOUS POPULATION IN OTTAWA IN 2016

In looking at the age and gender of those with Aboriginal identity vs. non-Aboriginals it is interesting to note that the Aboriginal population tends to be younger. This is especially true for the Inuit population (16% of males and 17% of females are under 15). The non-Aboriginal population tends to be older, with 13% of males and 15% of females being 55 or over. The Inuit population is the least represented in the 55+ age group, which may point to more recent migration into the city. Distribution of population by Aboriginal identity group, by age and gender, Ottawa10

A Growing Urban Indigenous Population (22,955 in 2016)11 2016 Census – population with Aboriginal identity in Ottawa

• 11,190 First Nations • 9,475 Métis • 1,145 Inuk (Inuit) • 550 Multiple Aboriginal

identities • 600 Aboriginal - Others KEEP IN MIND: The Census still significantly undercounts the Indigenous population, with Inuit especially underrepresented. In 2011, the City estimated 40,000 people who identify themselves as aboriginal in ancestry in Ottawa, and stated: “Even these higher numbers likely underestimate the true numbers, as many aboriginal people living in cities either don't self-identify or cannot be reached to take the census.” 12

DATA HIGHLIGHTS

In 2017, Barrhaven continued to be Ottawa’s ward with the highest population. This ward also saw the most growth with 2,216 more people in 2017 than two years previously. Five wards showed relatively small population declines from 2015 to 2017. Orléans showed the biggest decline with a drop of 358 people. All five wards showing decline were Urban wards. All four Rural wards showed growth, with Cumberland showing the third highest growth of all wards, with a 2,101 increase in population over the past two years. Rideau-Goulbourn’s population also grew by more than 2,000. Ottawa showed a very slight increase in the percent of the population residing in rural wards (from 13.2% to 13.5%).

In 2017, Ottawa had 416,217 households. As in 2016, Rideau-Vanier had the most households with 28,317. West Carleton-March had the fewest households with 9,129.

Comparing 2016 Census and Labour Force Survey Data Census data is considered more accurate than LFS data due to increased sample size. 2016 Census data shows 7.1% unemployment rate, while 2016 LFS data shows 6.3% for 2016.

LABOUR POOL AND EMPLOYMENT FIVE-YEAR TRENDS

The Labour Force Survey is considered the most accurate source of LMI for the time periods between census surveys. Over the past five years, Ottawa’s labour force has not kept pace with population increases, likely due to the aging population. Five-year trends, # of people in labour pool, labour force, employment, Ottawa20

A closer look at unemployment trends over past five years While the number of unemployed has fluctuated, rates have tended to decrease because of general increases in the labour force.

Unemployment Rate 2013 36,100 6.5%

2014 38,000 6.6%

2015 35,800 6.3%

2016 36,600 6.3%

2017 32,200 5.6%

A SPOTLIGHT ON THE PAST YEAR

The chart below tracks month-to-month changes in Ottawa’s labour market over the course of 2017. We see that both the labour force and employment generally trended downward until the final quarter (Oct. to Dec.) when there was a recovery in both. An increase in employment in the first quarter meant that the lowest unemployment rate was seen in March (when only 5.0% of labour force participants were unemployed). Meanwhile, July was the most difficult month for labour force participants (6.5% unemployment rate). Monthly labour force activity, Ottawa, 2017, seasonally adjusted 21

A closer look at the Labour Force Survey Methodology • Conducted via telephone and

in-person interviews. The monthly LFS sample size is approximately 56,000 households nationwide, resulting in the collection of labour market information for approx. 100,000 individuals.

Seasonally adjusted • Datasets that have been

adjusted to remove annually-recurring fluctuations attributable to climate and regular events (e.g. vacations and holiday seasons).

Seasonally unadjusted • Datasets that have not been

adjusted to account for seasonal variations.

A closer look at commuting patterns22 Given that Ottawa is part of the Ottawa-Gatineau Census Metropolitan Area, it is important to understand the commuter flow between the two sides of the provincial border.

• 93% of Ottawans with a usual place of work stay in Ottawa

• 5% (18,710) commute to Gatineau from Ottawa

• 2% (10,010) commute elsewhere outside Ottawa

• 37% of those residing in Gatineau with a usual place of work commute to Ottawa

COMPARATIVE TRENDS

A closer look at unemployment rates show that while Ottawa consistently has lower unemployment than Ontario and Toronto, the gap is closing. For example, in 2013 Toronto’s rate was 1.6 higher than Ottawa’s, while this difference was only 0.8 percentage points in 2017. Comparative five-year unemployment rate trends, Ottawa, Ontario, Toronto23

Data for persons with disabilities is collected via the Canadian Survey on Disability (see note below). There is more data available at the provincial and national levels than the local level – thus, we look at all thee geographies in this section. OTTAWA

Highlights from the Social Planning Council of Ottawa’s ‘Disability Profile of the City of Ottawa’ (2006 data) In 2010, SPCO published a report42 on people with disabilities living in Ottawa, based on 2006 Census data. As noted above, Statistics Canada warns that disability data collected from the Census based on its activity limitation questions should be used with caution due to the large number of ‘false positives’ (i.e. over-counting). Any data collected this way should not be compared to the Canadian Survey on Disability (CSD), which uses a different methodology. Given the limited local data available from the CSD, however, the comprehensive SPCO report is useful for providing some general insight into what the local labour market for people with disabilities looked like in 2006. It found that 85,700 people aged 20-64 (16%) reported having a disability in 2006. Some highlights from the report are included in the table to the right. Highlights from United Way Ottawa’s analysis of 2011 Census data United Way Ottawa conducted an analysis of data from the 2011 Census, using the activity limitations questions as a filter (same methodology as the SPCO report cited above). The two main differences between the United Way analysis and the SPCO report are that United Way looked at 2011 data (instead of 2006) and looked at the entire 15+ age bracket (rather than breaking it down to look at 20-64). The two datasets should not be compared, as a greater portion of those 65+ have a disability than those under 65, and so the labour market indicators in the United Way data will be more negative. Highlights from the United Way analysis are included in the table to the right.

Ottawa’s population of persons with disabilities aged 15-64 in 2012 included a labour pool of 73,100 (11% of the overall 15-64 labour pool), of which 45,900 were participating in the labour force (8% of the overall 15-64 labour force and representing a participation rate of 63% versus 81% for the overall population).43 *See note to the left for an explanation of why we look at 2012 data.

A closer look at labour force status

• 46% employment rate for 15- to 64-year-olds with disabilities; 73% for the population without disabilities

• Labour force status varies by severity of the disability; specifically, the percentage employed decreases as the global severity class increases

Lower rates of employment

• Looking at the prime working ages of 25 to 54, PWDs have notably lower rates of employment than those without disabilities

• The gap is greatest for men aged 25-34 (34 percentage point gap in employment rate)

• 10% of all Canadians in the

labour force report having at least one disability

• The most common type of disability of those in the labour force is Pain (7% of overall Canadian labour force)

• Persons reporting having a Developmental disability have the lowest participation (28%) and employment (22%) rates of all disability types

• Those with a Hearing disability have the highest participation (56%) and employment (48%) rates of all disability types

• The most common type of work modification needed by PWDs in Canada is reduced work hours – while 71% who need this modification have had it made available to them, 80,870 (29%) have not

• Other common types of modifications required include special chair and/or back support, job redesign, and modified and/or ergonomic work station

• *NOTE: There was insufficient data to determine the number of people that need ‘handrails, ramps and/or widened doorways’ and ‘adapted washrooms’ and that HAVE NOT had these modifications made available to them

KEY DATA HIGHLIGHTS:

• Even with differences in age composition of the two populations taken into account, persons with disabilities were less likely than persons without disabilities to be high school (80% versus 90%) or university graduates (16% versus 31%)52

• Just under half (45%) of 25- to 64-year-olds with disabilities whose condition existed prior to school completion reported that the condition influenced their choice of courses and careers

• 27% of workers with disabilities indicated that their employer was not aware of their limitation

• Among those with current or recent labour force experience: 43% considered themselves to be disadvantaged in employment because of their condition, and 44% felt that their current employer would be likely to consider them disadvantaged in employment because of their condition

Modifications for labour force participation for adults with disabilities, 201253

“Persons with Disabilities in the Canadian Labour Market: An Overlooked Talent Pool” In March 2013, the Library of Parliament published a Background Paper that stated that many barriers contribute to the employment gap for people with disabilities; the following barriers were identified:

 Many people with disabilities lack access to education and training, and are not job-ready

 The social isolation of numerous people with disabilities limits their encounters with key contacts and their knowledge of opportunities to enter the workforce or access training

 Some employers have negative attitudes and misconceptions with regard to people with disabilities, which can lead to discriminatory practices; many such employers are unaware of the capacity and abilities of people with disabilities in the workforce

 Workplaces can be inaccessible, not only due to their physical location but also, for example, when it comes to a lack of workplace tools

 Employers lack knowledge about disability issues, including the duty to accommodate, how to accommodate and the cost of accommodations

 There are not enough recruitment and outreach strategies to make contact with people with disabilities

 Barriers tend to be greater in the private sector: “The public sector has the financial resources necessary to provide accommodations for people with disabilities, as well as policies to encourage their increased representation.”

 Challenges often greater for women: “Women with disabilities are three times more likely than men with disabilities to be a lone parent, and even slightly more likely to be in that situation than women without disabilities.”

This could indicate a gender gap in the ability to leverage academic credentials to obtain appropriate employment and could help explain the higher unemployment rate for women in the 35 to 44 age group.

Ottawa Employment Hub has partnered with Magnet, a collaborative network powered by a job-matching platform that connects employers to talent based on skills and qualifications. Magnet utilizes an advanced and protected recruitment model that promotes diversity and supports bias free recruitment strategies. Job seekers using the Magnet platform complete a detailed profile outlining their professional and educational background, as well as key skills, and receive notifications when an employer posts a job that might be a good fit for them. In this section, we look at data for job seekers (supply-side) who have a Magnet profile, as well as data for employers (demand-side) who posted jobs on the Magnet platform in 2017.

Key Considerations Moving Forward

EXECUTIVE STEERING GROUP PRIORITIES On February 26th, the Executive Steering Group reviewed inputs into the Community Labour Market Plan and identified their key priorities to focus on in the next phase of, and beyond, the LEPC pilot. 1. Provide accurate, up-to-date, and complete information on the Ottawa

Employment Hub portal

• Labour market information • Programs and services, highlighting those that are new or actively

recruiting participants • Community initiatives (economic and workforce development

activities) • Collective impact/funding opportunities

2. Bring together community members for knowledge sharing and community

planning opportunities

• Convene local partners and bring in regional and provincial counterparts as appropriate to share promising approaches and create linkages to broader initiatives at the provincial and regional levels

3. Engage in employer and service provider outreach to:

• Understand talent supply and demand and how to effectively bridge gap

• Create opportunities to connect with each other and with job seekers and students

• Better focus, and collaborate, on industry opportunities

4. Increase alignment with City of Ottawa departments and initiatives

• Work more closely with Economic Development • Explore role with the soon-to-be-formed Talent Committee (derived

from the G33 initiative) • Input to other City committees related to employment (Youth, Seniors

Aboriginal, Persons with Disabilities)

5. Partner more closely with education

• Create the future talent pool (K-6 through post-secondary education) • Inform programming with labour market information and intelligence • Promote work-integrated learning and new grad opportunities

6. Define success measures (create a dashboard)

• Determine how we know we are making a difference; how we can measure our impact

• Report on how we are tracking against the LEPC dashboard

Key next steps (April to June)

 Review draft CLMP and fill in gaps/adjust as required

 Launch new Ottawa Employment Hub website

 Review current governance structure and membership

 Adjust working groups and Central Planning Table as required

 Review Secretariat organization structure

 Staff positions for the remainder of the pilot (to March 2019)

 Continue to explore additional funding sources

 Work on funded projects with community partners (OCWI Retail Exploration Project)

 Explore additional community initiatives to leverage to meet the LEPC mandate and priority action areas
