It is also used to announce any changes to labour series or releases, and to publish articles on the labour market, both analytical and technical. The publication contains tables for core data items, presenting the most recent data available at a particular date (rather than relating to a particular reference period). In addition to data from the Labour Force Survey (LFS), Australian Labour Market Statistics contains statistics from a range of other ABS labour surveys including Average Weekly Earnings, the Labour Price Index, Employment and Earnings - Public Sector, and Industrial Disputes. The publication also includes international data for selected labour indicators and summary data from recently released labour force supplementary surveys, including educational attendance. The publication was first issued in April 2003, replacing Labour Force, Australia (ABS cat. no. 6203.0). DISSEMINATION Australian Labour Market Statistics (ABS cat. no. 6105.0) is released quarterly, in the first month of each quarter (January, April, July, and October).

In addition, an annual publication, Labour Statistics in Brief, Australia (ABS cat. no. 6104.0) is released each May. Information Papers and metadata releases associated with the LFS are listed in the Labour Force Survey entry of this Directory.
