Annual Survey of Manufacturing and Logging Industries
2022
Overview
Summary
The Annual Survey of Manufacturing and Logging Industries (ASML) is a survey of the manufacturing and logging industries in Canada. It is intended to cover all establishments primarily engaged in manufacturing and logging activities as well as some sales offices and warehouses which support these establishments.
The details collected include principal industrial statistics (such as revenue, salaries and wages, cost of materials and supplies used, cost of energy and water utility, inventories, etc.), as well as information about the commodities produced and consumed. Data collected from businesses will be aggregated with information from other sources to produce official estimates of national and provincial economic production for these industries.
Data collected by the ASML are important because they help measure the production of Canada's industrial and primary resource sectors, as well as provide an indication of the well-being of each industry covered by the survey and its contribution to the Canadian economy. Within Statistics Canada, the data are used by the Canadian System of National Accounts, the Monthly Survey of Manufacturing (record number 2101) and Prices programs. The data are also used by the business community, trade associations and federal and provincial departments, as well as international organizations and associations, to profile the manufacturing and logging industries, undertake market studies, forecast demand and develop trade and tariff policies.
