Abstract: This study provides a partial update to a 2022 report on the contribution of women to gross domestic product (GDP; Faryaar et al., 2022). Using firm-level data from the Canadian Employer–Employee Dynamics Database (Statistics Canada, 2022), the study estimates and examines the contribution of women to the components of GDP (capital income, labour income and mixed income) and their contribution to GDP by sector. A full description of the data and methodology can be found in the original report, which covered the period from 2008 to 2018. This update covers the period from 2013 to 2022, allowing it to add to evidence regarding the influence of the COVID-19 pandemic on women’s participation in the market economy (Singh et al., 2022).
