The City of Hamilton carries out the Employment Inventory Survey during the summer months to look at business growth, trends, and changes in the city.
First conducted in 2010, the survey focused on businesses, buildings and employment within the City’s Downtown. In 2013, it expanded to cover the City-wide employment, commercial and rural settlement areas.
The information collected helps us to:
- Monitor the extent, nature, and location of employment and land use.
- Monitor changing economic conditions.
- Track the effectiveness of local employment initiatives and continued success of the city’s commercial, employment and rural settlement areas.
- Develop or expand future facilities, initiatives, incentives, and planning policies across the city.
The 2025 Employment Inventory is open!
