Maintenance
Managers
(NOC
0714)
Supports Multiple Sectors in the APG
Facility operation managers plan, organize, direct, control and evaluate the operations of commercial,
transportation and recreational facilities and the included real estate. Facility operation managers are
employed by a wide range of establishments, such as airports, harbours, canals, shopping centres,
convention centres, warehouses and recreational facilities. Maintenance managers plan, organize, direct,
control and evaluate the maintenance department within commercial, industrial, institutional, recreational
and other facilities. Maintenance managers are employed by a wide range of establishments, such as office
buildings, shopping centres, airports, harbours, warehouses, grain terminals, universities, schools and
sports facilities, and by the maintenance and mechanical engineering departments of manufacturing and
other industrial establishments. (More NOC 0714 information is provided following the Strategies and
Actions section.)

Highlights
The forecast shows an increasingly challenging labour market for Facility Operation and Maintenance
Managers in BC. The conditions move to tight by year 3, and remain tight for the rest of the forecast.
The Lower Mainland forecast also shows an increasingly challenging labour market for Facility Operation
and Maintenance Managers. The conditions move from balanced in the first 2 years to tight by year 4, and
remain tight until the final year of the forecast period.
For Northern BC, the forecast is tight from 2016 onward.
When normal unemployment1 is taken into consideration, Northern BC has more Facility Operation
and Maintenance Manager positions than workers from 2018 through to 2020, as well as in 2022.
New supply is expected to average just under 100% of job openings over the 2015‐2024 forecast period,
but to be lower (92%) in the first 5 years.
1
The shortage is calculated by assuming that 50% of the normally unemployed will work in the occupation, effectively cutting
normal unemployment by half. If fewer workers are drawn into the workforce, the shortages are more pronounced. If all the
normally unemployed remained outside of the workforce, Northern BC would show a shortage of workers in all occupations and in
all years.
Across BC in general, the High Investment Scenario outperforms the Low by 120 job openings (3%) for the
full 10 years of the forecast.
This is also true for Northern BC, although the impact is much larger at 54%.
In the Lower Mainland, the High Investment Scenario outperforms the Low by 70 positions in the
first five years of the forecast. In the forecast’s second half, the Low Investment Scenario
outperforms the High by 15 job openings. The net effect has the High Investment Scenario
outperforming the Low by about 55 job openings (2%) over the full ten years.
Job openings are created largely by Attrition (71%).
About 1 in 3 of today’s Facility Operation and Maintenance Managers will have left the labour market by
the end of the forecast period.
9 in 10 workers who add to the supply of Facility Operation and Maintenance Managers are experienced
workers from other occupations.
Changes in the number of jobs and workers available in the labour market are driven more by the base
economy than by large‐scale projects and programs, except for Northern BC where large scale projects and
programs have a much bigger impact.
66% of Facility Operation and Maintenance Managers live in the Lower Mainland; 4% live in Northern BC.
On average, Facility Operation and Maintenance Managers have from 6 to 16 years left in their working
lives.

Market:
Three
Economic
Scenarios
The Skills Table models the labour market based on three different economic scenarios to provide a range
of plausible possibilities for changes in the labour market. The Low Investment, or conservative, scenario
includes projects that are underway or certain, while the Moderate Investment, or expected, scenario adds
projects that are planned and likely to proceed. The High Investment, or optimistic, scenario adds projects
that have been announced, but with more distant start dates or more regulatory approvals needed to
proceed. The analysis that follows is based on the Moderate Investment Scenario. The impacts of the Low
and High Investment Scenarios on the labour markets are detailed in the “Impact of the Economic
Scenarios” section of this document.

Labour demand is created by the business environment, economic circumstances and decisions affecting
employers’ operations. It reflects the number of jobs available to be filled in an occupation.
The table on the next page includes the number of jobs, job openings and jobs created by Expansion in the
Moderate Investment Scenario. It also shows the impact on each of those measures on the High and Low
Investment Scenarios compared with the Moderate Investment Scenario.

The number of Facility Operation and Maintenance Manager positions increases by just under 930 (13%)
over the 2015‐2024 forecast period: with
just over 755 positions in the Lower Mainland, and
just over 30 in Northern BC.
In BC as a whole, about 3,605 job openings (growth and retirements combined) are expected to be created,
with:
just under 2,435 in the Lower Mainland, and
just under 135 in Northern BC.
The majority of job openings are expected to be created in the first half of the forecast. The rate of change
between 2020 and 2024 will be about two thirds of that seen in the first five years.
The majority of job openings are
expected to be created between
2015 and 2019, when demand
will grow at just over 2%
annually.
Across BC as a whole, 29% of job openings come from Expansion, 40% in the first 5 years.

Labour
Supply
The labour supply is created by the number of workers who have the skills and/or certification to be
qualified to work in each occupation in each year, including those who are newly trained, have moved from
other provinces or countries, or have moved from other occupations. The extent of labour demand will
have an impact on changes in labour supply.
Attrition
Attrition continues to be the primary driver of job openings, and its impact remains about the same as in
previous forecasts. This is due to the senior nature of the position, which draws on an experienced
workforce to fill vacancies and whose workers are therefore older on average than in other occupations.

For BC as a whole, labour supply is expected to grow by about 840 workers over the 10 years of the
forecast, including:
just over 690 in the Lower Mainland, and
just over 25 in Northern BC.
Base Supply3 is a measure of the decline in the number of workers who are active in an occupation at the
beginning of the forecast, and who leave due to retirement during the forecast period. The decline
demonstrates the proportion of experienced workers who leave the workforce over the forecast period.

New Supply
New supply is expected to average just under 100% of job openings in BC over the 2015‐2024 forecast
period, but to be lower (92%) in the first 5 years. The outlook is similar for the Lower Mainland and
Northern BC, and it suggests that the labour market for Facility Operation and Maintenance Managers
should be more challenging over the first 5 years before stabilizing in the second half of the forecast period.

90% in the Lower Mainland, and
91% in Northern BC.
Impact
of
the
Economic
Scenarios
In BC, the High Investment Scenario outperforms the Low by 120 job openings (3%) for the full 10 years of
the forecast. This is also true for Northern BC, although the impact is much larger, at 54%. In the Lower
Mainland, the High Investment Scenario outperforms the Low by 70 positions in the first five years of the
forecast. In the second half, the Low Investment Scenario outperforms the High by 15 job openings. The
Net effect has the High Investment Scenario outperforming the Low by about 55 job openings (2%) over the
full ten years.
The forecast shows that the economic scenarios will have little impact on both supply and demand for
Facility Operation and Maintenance Managers.
Both supply and demand for
Facility Operation and
Maintenance Managers follow a
very similar path in all economic
scenarios.
The High Investment Scenario
produces 54% more job openings
than the Low in Northern BC. For
BC and the Lower Mainland the
High Investment Scenario impact
is quite low (under 4%).

There are four metrics used to summarize the information from the 2015‐2024 forecast.
(1) APGST Tightness Ranking: Assesses the “tightness” of the labour market; i.e., the degree of difficulty an employer may experience in trying
to hire into the occupation.
1 = excess supply = Blue (more than 60% higher than normal unemployment)
2 = balanced supply and demand = Green (between 30 and 60% higher than normal unemployment)
3 = nearing a tight labour market = Yellow (between 0 and 30% higher than normal unemployment)
4 = excess demand, limited supply = Red (below normal unemployment)
(2) Supply Risk: A metric that assesses the extent to which new supply is keeping pace with job openings. It allows for an assessment, relative
to the Ranking, of the extent to which conditions are tightening or loosening in the labour market.

Implications
The forecast shows an increasingly challenging labour market for Facility Operation and Maintenance
Managers across BC. By the third year, conditions move to tight by year 3, and will remain tight for the rest
of the forecast. This implies that employers will have challenges finding the workers they need across the
province as a whole.
If the new supply is more than 90% of the job openings, it is a LOW risk.
If the new supply is between 80 and 90% of the job openings, it is a MEDIUM risk.
If the new supply is less than 80% of the job openings, it is a HIGH risk.
(3) Immigration Reliance: Assesses the extent to which the new supply is dependent on Immigration. Given that the levers that control
immigration are not in the control of employers, this measure provides insight into the potential that the new supply expectations could
be affected by changes to immigration policy.
If Immigration represents less than 10% of new supply, it is a LOW risk.
If Immigration represents between 10 and 25% of new supply, it is a MEDIUM risk.
If Immigration represents between 25 and 50% of new supply, it is a HIGH risk.
If Immigration represents 50% or more of new supply, it is an EXTREME risk.
(4) Mobility: Demonstrates the extent to which movement into or out of the province affects the supply available to fill job openings. For the
regions, it measures movement into and out of the region to other regions in BC as well as to other provinces.
No worker mobility
Workers moving in
Workers leaving <10%
Workers leaving 10‐25%
Workers leaving 25‐50% Workers leaving 50% or more
The Lower Mainland forecast also shows an increasingly challenging labour market for Facility Operation
and Maintenance Managers. Conditions move from balanced in the first 2 years to tight by year 4, and
remain tight until the final year of the forecast period. This implies that employers will begin to have
difficulty finding workers by 2018; those challenges will increase through to 2023.
For Northern BC, the forecast will be tight from 2016 onward, and when normal unemployment5 is taken
into consideration, Northern BC will have more Facility Operation and Maintenance Manager positions than
workers from 2018 through to 2020, as well as in 2022.
New supply is expected to average just below 100% of job openings over the 2015‐2024 forecast period,
but to be lower (92%) during the first 5 years. The outlook is similar for both the Lower Mainland and
Northern BC, and suggests that the labour market for Facility Operation and Maintenance Managers will be
more challenging over the first 5 years before stabilizing in the second half of the forecast period.
Across BC, the High Investment Scenario outperforms the Low by 120 job openings (3%) for the full 10 years
of the forecast.
This is also true for Northern BC, although at 54% the impact is much larger.
In the Lower Mainland, the High Investment Scenario outperforms the Low by 70 positions during
the first five years of the forecast. In the second half, the Low Investment Scenario outperforms the
High by 15 job openings. The net effect has the High Investment Scenario outperforming the Low by
about 55 job openings (2%) over the full ten years.
In summary, the impacts of the forecast labour market conditions for employers are:
1. Job openings are created largely by Attrition (71%). While the loss of senior workers can create loss
of corporate memory and have a negative impact on productivity, the significant number of
experienced new workers (from other occupations) entering the occupation is likely to help
maintain productivity and knowledge levels.
2. About 1 in 3 of today’s Facility Operation and Maintenance Managers today will leave the labour
market by the end of the forecast period.
3. 9 in 10 workers who add to the supply of Facility Operation and Maintenance Managers are
experienced workers from other occupations. They create vacancies in other positions as they
move to fill opportunities in these roles.
4. Conditions are challenging in all but the first 2 years and in all regions.
5. While the overall tightness changes very little, BC and the Lower Mainland show some degree of
balance in the labour markets in the first 2 to 3 years of the forecast.
6. Changes in the number of jobs and workers available in the labour market are driven more by the
base economy than by large‐scale projects and programs.
7. 66% of Facility Operation and Maintenance Managers live in the Lower Mainland; 4% live in
Northern BC.
5
The shortage is calculated by assuming that 50% of the normally unemployed will work in the occupation, effectively cutting
normal unemployment by half. If fewer workers are drawn into the workforce, the shortages are more pronounced. If all the
normally unemployed remained outside of the workforce, Northern BC would show a shortage of workers in all occupations and in
8. On average, Facility Operation and Maintenance Managers have from 6 to 16 years left in their
working lives. This implies a need to focus on succession and maintaining corporate knowledge.
Strategies
and
Actions
Facility Operation and Maintenance Managers present a challenging labour market over the 10 years of the
forecast period in BC as a whole as well in each of Northern BC and the Lower Mainland. Some strategies to
help employers to access workers and enhance productivity in this environment include the following:
Focus on retention: keep workers working for you and help them stay in BC.
In a tight labour market, managing succession and building comprehensive succession plans and
experienced‐worker‐retention programs can be central tools for expanding and maintaining a
workforce.
Examine workforce retention and recruitment programs for mature workers to extend the working
lives of current employees.
Review hiring/job requirements with in order to encourage transferability from other occupations.
