Employment Services is the Australian Government’s way of helping get more Australians into work. Job Services Australia was the employment services model between 1 July 2009- 30 June 2015. These datasets are the aggregated Job Services Australia youth caseload (job seekers aged 15-24) for labour market regions across Australia, broken down by various demographics including stream classification. The caseload datasets contain information on the number of people being assisted by Job Services Australia for each month of the programme.

The outcomes datasets contain information on the number of job seekers who remained in employment for particular milestones (13 weeks or 26 weeks) and who were placed into a job.

Further descriptions of employment services and the variable descriptions are available in the attached documentation below. This dataset is provided by the Department of Jobs and Small Business.

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..

Small Area Labour Markets presents regional estimates of unemployment and the unemployment rate at two small area levels:

• For approximately 2,100 Australian Bureau of Statistics’ (ABS) Statistical Area Level 2s (SA2s), on a State/Territory and Metropolitan/Non-metropolitan basis; and

• For each of Australia’s 540 Local Government Areas (LGAs).

The estimates in Table 1 and 2 are smoothed using a four-quarter average to minimise the variability inherent in small area estimates. A description of the methodology used to prepare the estimates in this publication is presented in the Explanatory Notes, as well as on page 43 of the PDF Publication.

Please note:

• AURIN has spatially enabled the original data.

• Where data values were "-" (no data provided) in the original data they have been set to null.

• Caution: Highly disaggregated estimates of unemployment and the unemployment rate at the SA2 and LGA level can display significant variability and should be viewed with caution. Indeed, quarter-to-quarter comparisons may not be indicative of actual movements in the labour market. It is therefore recommended that year-on-year comparisons be used.
