LABOUR FORCE SURVEY REDESIGN
The Labour Force Survey questionnaire has been redesigned to better reflect current labour market phenomena. Use of the new form will commence with the April survey. A new publication entitled Information Paper, Implementing the Redesigned Labour Force Survey Questionnaire (Cat. no. 6295.0), is due for release on 3 May. As part of the questionnaire implementation, key labour force series will be backcast to April 1986 and an additional review of seasonal factors will be conducted. For information about revised data or the seasonal reanalysis, contact Michael Johnson on (02) 6252 7507, email michael.johnson@abs.gov.au.
