UPDATE OF AUSTRALIAN LABOUR MARKET STATISTICS REVIEW

A review of the current content of this publication Australian Labour Market Statistics (cat. no. 6105.0) was conducted earlier this year, and involved seeking feedback from users on the usage of articles and tables. The review was advertised in the July 2007 issue of 6105.0.

As a result of feedback received from users, the ABS is evaluating the future content of 6105.0 with the aim of developing a more relevant set of tables to complement the current datacubes and spreadsheets available on the ABS website. The publication will continue as a point of reference for labour market statistics drawing together the range of key indicators.

If you would like to provide input into future table content of 6105.0, please contact Catherine Toet on Canberra (02) 6252 7636 or email <c.toet@abs.gov.au>.

SUPPLEMENTARY SURVEYS ON LABOUR TOPICS

The Monthly Population Survey comprises the Labour Force Survey and a range of supplementary surveys, which provide detailed information on a range of topics. Results from the Labour Force Experience survey have recently been released in: Labour Force Experience, Australia (cat. no. 6206.0). See the Recent Releases section in this issue for more details.

FINAL ISSUE

The quarterly Survey of Employment and Earnings - Public Sector is being replaced with an annual survey, commencing with the 2007-08 reference year. As a result, the June quarter 2007 issue was the final quarterly issue of Wage and Salary Earners, Public Sector, Australia (cat. no. 6248.0.55.001). Data from the 2007-08 survey are expected to be released in January 2009.
