Updated methodology to estimate interjurisdictional employees

Interjurisdictional employees (IJEs) are individuals who work in other regions while maintaining their primary residence in their home province or territory. Since 2021, Statistics Canada has released the annual IJE estimates using data from the Canadian Employer-Employee Dynamics Database (CEEDD) via the Common Output Data Repository (CODR). This article describes an updated methodology to estimate interjurisdictional employees and compare the old and new methodology using the IJE estimates from 2002 to 2020.
