DESE - Labour Market - Employment Projections by Industry (SA4) May 2024

Brief description

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](http://lmip.gov.au). 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](https://lmip.gov.au/default.aspx?LMIP/Downloads/ABSLabourForceRegion). 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.
