Economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on Canadian businesses across firm size classes / by Wulong Gu.CS11-626/2020-119E-PDF

"This paper examines the impact of COVID-19 on the economic activity of Canadian businesses across firm size classes. It focuses on two measures of economic activity: actual hours worked of employees engaged in production in firms and real output (as defined as real gross domestic product, GDP) of the firms. The paper estimates the growth in real output and hours worked for the first quarter of 2020 across firm size classes and compared that with their annual growth for the period 2016 to 2019. Firms are classified by their employment: small firms have 0 to 99 employees; medium-sized firms, 100 to 499 employees; and large firms, 500 or more employees"--Page 1.
