Abstract: In March 2020, child care provision in Canada was greatly affected by the COVID-19 pandemic, and most provinces mandated the closure of child care centres, schools and family child care homes. This study examines the percentage of child care workers who claimed the Canada Emergency Response Benefit (CERB) and their characteristics. About 65% of child care workers claimed the CERB, compared with 35% of all employed workers in Canada. Child care workers who claimed the CERB were more likely to be working in schools (than in the daycare services industry); have lower wages; and live in Ontario, the Prairie provinces or British Columbia (compared with Quebec and the Atlantic provinces).
