2021: Australia’s Workforce (Post Covid-19)

In December 2020, the Australian National Skills Commission released its report on “The Shape of Australia’s Post Covid-19 Workforce”, analysing the impact of the pandemic on our labour market and profiling occupations by their resilience to Covid-19. While Covid-19 has changed the way we work and how we do business, the latest data from the Australian Bureau of Statistics provides hope that there are signs of a recovering labour market and this view is supported by the National Skills Commission’s monitoring of internet vacancies and employer surveys.
