Notes
Labour Force estimates have been rebenchmarked to the 2021 Census-based ERP (estimated resident population), resulting in revisions to Labour Force estimates from July 2016 onwards. For many regions, the impact of the re-benchmarking is minor. For some regions, particularly in inner Sydney and Melbourne, the revisions to estimates are more significant. Users are encouraged to focus on the trends or directions in the data as these are largely unaffected by the re-benchmarking process.
Dashboards incorporate data from a range of sources:
