APPENDIX POPULATION CONCORDANCE WITH PREVIOUS SURVEYS

This release combines the key elements from the Persons Not In The Labour Force (PNILF), Job Search Experience (JSE), Underemployed Workers (UEW) and Labour Mobility (LMOB) to provide a comprehensive and coherent dataset on characteristics of people's employment.

Caution should be exercised when comparing the estimates from this release with previous surveys as some population groups are conceptually different.

The following table provides a concordance of populations groups used in this release with population groups from previous Participation, Job Search and Mobility surveys:
