The data reveals a stagnant forecast for the number of self-employed individuals in Canada within the sectors of security and investigation, services to buildings and landscape, and office administrative support from 2024 to 2028, each expected to remain constant at 141,000 persons. This shows no year-on-year growth or decline for the forthcoming years beyond 2023, where the actual number stood at a similar level.
Future trends to watch include:
- Technological advancements impacting service delivery in these sectors.
- Policy changes that may influence the ease of self-employment.
- Potential shifts in demand for these services due to economic or social changes.
- Potential impacts of AI and automation on job requirements and availability within these industries.
