The pandemic has increased demand in certain occupations in Saskatchewan.

A Canadian government study about how the pandemic is affecting the labour in each province, highlights some occupations that increased in demand due to the COVID-19 pandemic in Saskatchewan.

It is true that many industries were negatively affected by pandemic-related shutdowns, such as the tourism and hospitality sectors. Many individuals lost their jobs or saw their hours reduced. However, other sectors saw a rise in job vacancies.

Here are nine of the jobs that increased in demand. The jobs are listed alongside their National Occupational Classification (NOC) code.

1. Real estate agents and salespersons (NOC 6232)
2. Transport truck drivers (NOC 7511)
3. Cleaning supervisors (NOC 6315)
4. Heavy equipment operators (NOC 7521)
5.Power engineers and power systems operators (NOC 9241)
6.  Store shelf stockers, clerks and order fillers (NOC 6622)
7. Information systems analysts and consultants (NOC 2171)

Canada has now held 17 Express Entry draws just for PNP candidates since the start of 2021.

Another 635 Provincial Nominee Program (PNP) candidates in the Express Entry system have been invited to apply for permanent residence.

Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) held its latest draw on September 1. The minimum score cutoff was 764, since all candidates had a provincial nomination worth 600 points in the Express Entry system. The maximum number of points one can possibly receive is 1,200.

The cutoff time for those who had the minimum score was April 12, 2021 at 12:21:45 UTC. IRCC publishes the tie-breaker for every draw regardless of whether or not there was an actual tie.

Invited candidates now have 60 days to apply for permanent residency.
