Executive Summary

THE ANALYSIS AND THE REPORTThis summary and interpretation of findings contains the EWQL scorecard, a summary of results by year between 2011 and 2015, as available, and appendix tables with further details and methodologies.

Unless otherwise indicated, the Scorecard Results include a comparison to the Canadian women’s averages (CWA) or Canadian census metropolitan areas (CMAs) women’s results. These measurements are included as a benchmark of Edmonton’s relative success in each goal; and where applicable, results from Edmonton men

are included for a second reference. The analysis excludes additional breakdown of demographics beyond gender.

The data, unless otherwise available from a reliable source, is based on Statistics Canada reports of Edmonton census metropolitan area (CMA), with repeatable measurement data.

Further information about research data and the benchmark sources is provided in appendices – “Sources and Methodology” in the online version.

WOMEN IN LEADERSHIP

PREAMBLEEdmonton’s Women’s Initiative led by Councillor Bev Esslinger and Mayor Don Iveson was approved by City Council in March 2014. The initiative includes a variety of dynamic, action-focused projects to explore issues and opportunities that affect the quality of life for women in Edmonton, and for all citizens.

The Edmonton Women’s Quality of Life Scorecard (EWQL) was developed to provide insight into the life and experiences of women in Edmonton and track overtime where change may be occurring. It is an opportunity to have a “made in Edmonton” analysis of women and their of quality of life. Through research, review of practices in other municipalities and demographic/psychographic profiles, issues and opportunities for women in Edmonton can be identified.

Following extensive research of best practices, five diverse indicators were selected for this scorecard. They are used in conjunction with

existing national and global gender gap rankings and reports.

The Edmonton Women’s Quality of Life scorecard aims to evaluate the quality of life for women as related to five goals:

1. Finance and Economy: Women have the opportunity to be active members of the workforce and employment of their choice.

2. Leadership, Political Empowerment and Participation: Women are equitably represented in all levels of government and in key decision-making roles.

3. Education: Women have access to education to achieve qualifications needed to ensure increased opportunities.

4. Health and Wellness: Women have high levels of physical and mental health, happiness and wellness.

5. Safety: Women feel and experience safe environments.

FINDINGSOverall, Edmonton women are above or on par with Canadian women in the three goals of Finance and Economy, Education and Health. The two goals for improvement are Safety and Leadership, Political Empowerment and Participation.

The specific measurement and subcategory areas where Edmonton women are behind national averages include:

· Part-time employment rates and participation in apprenticeships and trades (both 2% below CWA).

As related to political empowerment and participation:

· Overall number of women in Edmonton who are council candidates and subsequently elected as municipal officials are under-represented compared to other CMAs with variances of 5% and 18% respectively for councillors, and 16% for the elected mayors.

· Although Edmonton women are well represented for both provincial and federal elections candidates, only elected

Edmonton women Members of the Legislative Assembly are higher than the CMA average with 37% representation compared to 33% provincially; while the Member of Parliament representation falls 15% below the national average (11% compared to 26%).

With respect to leadership:

· Edmontonian women are behind the CWA in frontline supervisory roles by 3% while management, senior management and legislators are marginally at or above representation rates from other areas of Canada.

Finally, under safety:

· Edmonton women’s homeless rates fall below Alberta benchmark rates in each subcategory with respect to provisional or full-time shelter, or unsheltered homelessness. The total homeless rate as expressed per 100,000 population has increased since 2012 and is above the Alberta 7 Cities 2014 benchmark. See Part II results.

CONCLUSIONThis initial scorecard is meant as a benchmark so that as new data is compiled, progress in Edmonton can be evaluated. This document has used sources that will allow future consistent analysis for data measurement.

The scorecard also provides an opportunity for Edmonton’s women to have a “made in Edmonton” analysis of women and their state of quality of life. From the results, further research and initiatives

can be initiated as required. It is anticipated the research will also provide insights on how the Women’s Initiative can use this scorecard as an evaluation component of program initiatives.

It is the intention that this scorecard will be reassessed as new data is released to measure Edmonton women’s progress relative to Canadian benchmarks.

8 WOMEN’S INITIATIVE EDMONTON

RESULTS NOTES: Leadership representation: Data from 2011 Statistics Canada National Household Survey, data unavailable again until 2016 (5 year census cycle). See Appendix 1 – Leadership Representation Detailed Summary by National Occupational Code for further details.

Education: Data from 2011 Statistics Canada National Household Survey, data unavailable again until 2016 (5 year census cycle).

Health expectancy: Data only available for 2009-2010 and 2013-2014.

Security: Edmonton 2012 provisionally accommodated rates were not tracked by Homeward trust in 2012 making a categorical comparison to 2014 for Edmonton difficult. Total homeless rate is the most valuable comparison for Edmonton women’s year over year progress. See Appendix 2 – Security Rates & Results Summary for further details.

Domestic Violence: Domestic Violence is ANY use of physical or sexual force, actual or threatened, in an intimate relationship which may include a single act of violence or a number of acts forming a pattern of abuse through the use of assaultive and controlling behaviour.

Gender Based Violence: Includes; sexual assault, and intimate partner violence and family violence.

Census Metropolitan Area (CMA): A census metropolitan area (CMA) consists of one or more neighbouring municipalities situated around a major urban core. A CMA must have a total population of at least 100,000 of which 50,000 or more live in the urban core. To be included in the CMA, other adjacent municipalities must have a high degree of integration with the central urban area, as measured by commuting flows derived from census data. A CMA typically comprises more than one police service.

Safety Perception: Select Citizen’s Perception Survey from January 2015. There is no Canadian benchmark on safety as this is a City of Edmonton survey. The male Canandian benchmark statistic is for Edmonton only.
