Fiche d’information : Les revenus médians des immigrants par année d’admission

Faits saillants :

  • L’année d’admission apparait comme un bon indicateur du niveau et de la trajectoire des revenus médians des traitements et salaires (T&S) des immigrants au Canada :
    • Pour les immigrants arrivés pendant la période 1990 – 2010, les revenus des T&S sont similaires dans la première année de participation au marché du travail canadien (allant de 18 000 à 24 000 $ en $ constants de 2012);
    • Pour chaque cohorte d’année d’admission, les revenus médians des T&S augmentent en termes réels, en partie au moins grâce à la croissance de productivité attribuable à l’expérience sur le marché du travail canadien; et
    • Les revenus médians des T&S d’une cohorte d’année d’admission donnée rattrapent rarement les revenus médians des T&S d’une cohorte précédente.

FactSheet: Immigrant Median Earnings by Year of Landing

Highlights:

  • The year-of-landing appears to predict the level and trajectory of median wage and salary (W&S) earnings of immigrants to Canada:
  • For immigrants who arrived in the 1990 to 2010 period, W&S earnings are similar in the first year of participation in the Canadian labour market (ranging between $18,000 and $24,000 in constant $2012);
  • For each year-of-landing cohort, the median W&S earnings increase in real terms due, at least in part, to productivity growth attributable to labour market experience in Canada; and
  • Median W&S earnings of a given year-of-landing cohort seldom catch up to the median W&S earnings of an earlier cohort.
