6239.0 - Barriers and Incentives to Labour Force Participation, Australia, Jul 2008 to Jun 2009

CONCEPTUAL FRAMEWORK

OVERVIEW

In attempting to understand the barriers to increased labour force participation there are several groups of people who are of particular interest. These are the unemployed, persons not in the labour force and those who usually worked less than 16 hours. For persons not in the labour force and those who usually work less than 16 hours it is important to ascertain whether they would like a paid job or more hours, whether they are available to start work, and whether they are looking for work. The conceptual framework below identifies these groups of people.

Note: The effects of rounding has resulted in component populations not necessarily adding to the parent population.
