LABOUR STATISTICS IN BRIEF
In May 2011, the ABS released Labour Statistics in Brief, Australia, 2011 (cat. no. 6104.0). This publication presents a range of summary statistics with the emphasis on simple tabular and graphical presentations. Most of the ABS labour collections are covered, including the Labour Force Survey, the range of employer surveys and the industrial disputes collection. Australian data are compared with those of the major Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development member countries.
Comparisons of data over a 20-year period are given for labour force participation; employment and unemployment; underemployment; hours worked; industrial disputes; wages and prices; and job vacancies. Also included are recent data on labour force underutilisation; earnings; education and work; people not in the labour force; methods of setting pay; and an international comparison of population and unemployment rates.
