- As premium payments are administered through the tax system, the most recent data available are for the 2010 taxation year.
- For ease of analysis, the benefits-to-contributions ratios have been adjusted so that the national figure equals one.
- Province, territory and industry are determined by the location of the employer for premiums and of the claimant for benefits.
- Gender and age figures do not add up to the national total because some data are missing for these categories.
- The calculation of Quebec's regular benefits-to-contributions ratio and adjusted regular benefits-to-contributions ratio takes into consideration that employers and employees in the province do not pay EI premiums for maternity and parental benefits, due to the presence of the Quebec Parental Insurance Plan (QPIP). To account for this, the EI contributions from Quebec, which is the denominator of the two ratios, has been modified upward to estimate how much employers and employees in Quebec would pay in EI premiums if they had to contribute for EI maternity and parental benefits.
