NOTES
ABOUT THIS PUBLICATION
This publication presents information about the experiences of unemployed people in seeking work, in terms of the steps they have taken to find work and the difficulties they have encountered in finding work. It also presents information about employed people who started their current job in the previous 12 months. For this group, data on the steps taken to attain work and current job details are provided. In addition, demographic information is provided for both of these groups.
The statistics in this publication were compiled from data collected in the Job Search Experience Survey, conducted throughout Australia in July 2010 as a supplement to the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) monthly Labour Force Survey (LFS).
CHANGES IN THIS ISSUE
In this publication, 'Job Network' has been changed to 'Job Services Australia' following organisational changes to Government job search facilities in July 2009.
