These projections are based on ABS employment data for November 2013 and the Government’s forecasts and projections in the December 2013 Mid-Year Economic and Fiscal Outlook (MYEFO). As such, they may not fully take account of the Government’s policies to boost employment growth, including reducing red tape costs, lowering the company tax rate and abolishing the carbon and mining taxes. Accordingly, these projections may understate employment growth over the five years to November 2018.
The Employment Outlook to November 2018 examines future employment trends across industries and sectors, occupations, states and territories, and regions. This report outlines the employment outlook across these levels, based on the 2014 Employment Projections for the five years to November 2018.
