Purpose

To provide data on employee earnings and other labour costs (i.e. superannuation, workers’ compensation, payroll tax and fringe benefits tax) for States, Territories and Australia.

Description

This survey provides estimates of labour costs for the private and public sectors. The sample survey is conducted by mail as follows:

  • Superannuation Boards, Treasury Departments, and several Workers’ Compensation Boards provide details directly to the ABS on superannuation and workers’ compensation, for some government organisations.
  • Additional information is obtained from the public accounts of the Commonwealth, States and Territories and from the annual reports of certain agencies.
