TABLE 20. EMPLOYMENT BY INDUSTRY
This table is compiled from data collected in the Labour Force Survey. The scope of this survey excludes members of the permanent defence forces, some diplomatic personnel, overseas residents in Australia and members of non–Australian defence forces stationed in Australia. This table has been adjusted to include members of the permanent defence forces.
This table shows the number of employees and employed persons in each industry. An employed person is described as either an employee, an employer, an own account worker or a contributing family worker. The number of employees and employed persons are shown on a full time, part time and full time equivalent basis.
The employees and employed persons data is based on Labour force data taken from Labour Force, Australia, Detailed, Quarterly (cat. no. 6291.0.55.003). For further information regarding the scope, coverage and reliability of these estimates please see the Explanatory Notes in Labour Force, Australia (cat. no. 6202.0).
For example, there were 53 177 full time and 14 217 part time employees, which equates to 60 285 full time equivalent employees in the Sheep, grains, beef and dairy cattle industry. During the same period there were 113 153 full time and 40 792 part time employed persons, which equates to 133 549 full time equivalent employed persons in that industry.
