We have three teams who specialise in various aspects of the labour market: Labour Market Dynamics The Labour Market Dynamics team specialises in statistics that inform on transitions within the labour market, particularly into and out of employment. The team has a focus on understanding the nature of these transitions and the people who are affected. Please contact Bjorn Jarvis (team leader) on (02) 6252 6552 or email <bjorn.jarvis@abs.gov.au> if you have any questions relating to transitions, unemployment and underemployment, underutilisation, job search experience, retirement, job vacancies, labour force participation and persons not in the labour force. Wages and Workplace Relations The Wages and Workplace Relations team specialises in statistics and statistical measures relating to the nature of employment, such as wages and conditions of employment, employment arrangements, different forms of employment, and workplace relations (bargaining, trade union membership). Please contact Michael Gerrity (team leader) on (02) 6252 5514 or email <m.gerrity@abs.gov.au> if you have any questions in regards to earnings measures and sources (including gender wage issues), independent contracting and other forms of employment, working arrangements, casual employment, trade union membership, and methods of setting pay. Labour Force Survey Projects The Labour Force Survey Projects team undertakes research, development and analytical work relating to the design and operation of the monthly Labour Force Survey. Their work is aimed at maintaining the efficiency and relevance of the survey, and at improving the quality and range of data disseminated. Please contact Susan Schemen (team leader) on (02) 6252 5171 or email <susan.schemen@abs.gov.au> if you have any questions about developments relating to the Labour Force Survey.

Introduction to Labour Statistics training course Introduction to Labour Statistics is a one-day training course run in partnership between the National Statistical Training Institute and the Labour Market National Statistical Centre. The training course suits people with or without a related academic background, providing an overview of the range of concepts and issues associated with ABS labour statistics. It also explores the data produced by both household and employer based collections, and highlights the range of data available. Introduction to Labour Statistics training courses are generally held in each state capital during the year.
