This dataset presents the change in employment through a projection of employment by industries for the Statistical Area Level 4 (SA4) regions projected from 2019 to May 2024. The boundaries for this dataset follow the 2016 edition of the Australian Statistical Geography Standard (ASGS).

The Australian Department of Education, Skills and Employment publishes a range of labour market data on its Labour Market Information Portal. The data provided includes unemployment rate, employment rate, participation rate, youth unemployment rate, unemployment duration, population by age group and employment by industry and occupation.

Each year, the National Skills Commission produces employment projections by industry, occupation, skill level and region for the following five-year period. These employment projections are designed to provide a guide to the future direction of the labour market, however, like all such exercises, they are subject to an inherent degree of uncertainty.

The 2019 employment projections are based on the forecasted and projected total employment growth rates published in the 2019-20 Budget, the Labour Force Survey (LFS) data (June 2019) for total employment, and the quarterly detailed LFS data (May 2019) for industry employment data.

AURIN has spatially enabled the original data. Data Source: Department of Jobs and Small Business 2019 Employment Projections, Five Years to May 2024. The 2019 employment projections do not take account of any impact caused by the COVID-19 pandemic and are therefore no longer reflective of current labour market conditions. As such, they should be used, and interpreted, with extreme caution.. The region named "Western Australia - Outback (North and South)" in the original data has been omitted as it did not match a region within the SA4 2016 ASGS.

This dataset presents the results from a survey administered to 309 workers retrenched from the Australian automotive industry during the industry's closures. The survey was conducted between December 2021 and February 2022 and explored workers' labour market preferences, focusing on non-pecuniary job attributes. Respondents, who previously worked in roles marked for redundancy, were asked about their employment attitudes, perceptions of training programs, and preferences for job attributes such as autonomy, skill utilisation, supervision responsibilities, and employer reputation. Participants engaged in stated preference experiments, choosing between hypothetical jobs that varied across attributes like contract type, autonomy, and skill utilisation. The sample, reflecting a representative distribution of demographics from the 2016 Census, included both original equipment manufacturers and supply chain workers. This design provides insights into the labour market preferences of retrenched automotive workers, enhancing understanding of how job quality and meaningful work influence re-employment decisions.

Market Size statistics on the Employment Placement and Recruitment Services industry in Australia

Employment placement and recruitment firms are highly susceptible to shifts in Australia's unemployment rate, the total labour force's size and business confidence. Negative business confidence tends to reduce demand for the industry's recruitment services, reflecting a business environment wherein fewer client businesses are willing to employ additional staff. Hikes in the national unemployment rate can wreak havoc on industry growth, as clients typically advertise fewer jobs. After several years of strong performances, industry revenue growth was subdued in 2019-20 before plummeting in 2020-21 because of the COVID-19 pandemic's adverse economic effects. A surging national unemployment rate and subdued growth in the total labour force's size contributed to revenue falls for the year. Industry revenue rebounded strongly over the two years through 2022-23 as the pandemic's effects dissipated and businesses began to reopen. Intense competition has limited employment placement and recruitment firms' ability to raise client fees, but falls in the unemployment rate in recent years have supported profitability. Nonetheless, a rising unemployment rate and negative business confidence over the two years through 2024-25 have weighed on demand for employment services. Overall, industry revenue is expected to have expanded at an annualised 0.4% over the five years through 2024-25, to $20.8 billion. This trend includes an anticipated slump of 3.1% in 2024-25 as the national unemployment rate rises. Moving forwards, improvements in the labour market and positive business confidence will underpin industry growth. Employment placement and recruitment firms are set to offer a wider range of online employment placements and other employment services. However, greater external competition from online platforms, like LinkedIn and SEEK, will constrain industry revenue. To offset this trend, established recruitment firms will likely develop their own complementary and additional recruitment services and processes. Industry revenue is projected to climb at an annualised 2.3% over the five years through 2029-30, to $23.3 billion.
