The Employment Survey will offer valuable insights that can significantly improve local municipalities’ decision-making abilities related to future employment planning, influencing growth strategies and infrastructure investments. The findings will not only shape immediate decisions but will also lay the groundwork for sustainable economic growth and development initiatives that will benefit our local communities for years to come.

Starting in May 2024, a group of students hired by the County began visiting businesses across the region to seek participation in the survey in-person.

Additionally, businesses are encouraged to send an e-mail to employsimcoe@simcoe.ca to receive a unique survey link for their specific workplace.

To receive a direct survey link personalized for your workplace, please email employsimcoe@simcoe.ca or you can call the County at (705) 735-6901 or at 1-800-263-3199.

Data collected will be strictly confidential; only local municipalities and the County of Simcoe will have access to it. Aggregated data and analysis will be posted to the www.simcoe.ca for the general public to view at a later date.

By taking the survey you will directly help contribute towards a better future by lending your insights and perspectives. This collaboration is key to building a prosperous future across Simcoe County. 

Plus, everyone that participates in the survey will automatically be entered into a draw to win one of three ‘Made in Simcoe County’ gift baskets from Farm to Door that will contain various items from local producers across the region.
