Alis Update For Career Advisors: November 2022

Updated Wage & Salary Data on Alis

The alis team has finished publishing the 2021 Alberta Wage and Salary Survey (AWSS) data developed by our partners in Skilled Trades and Professionals.

The dataset, which can be broken down regionally as well as by industry, includes a range of Alberta-specific wage and salary data for different occupational groups, as well as several metrics that explore related skills shortages being experienced by employers. As the survey is updated every 2 years, this is the first instance of the AWSS to reflect the pandemic's impact on wages and salaries within the province.

The new data can be explored on our dedicated Wages and Salaries in Alberta page and is also integrated throughout the occupational profiles available on alis. Over the past 12 months, our Wages and Salaries pages received over 650,000 pageviews while our occupational pages received over 2.7 million pageviews, demonstrating the high value that Albertans place on this labour market information.
