The Labour Market Updates are quarterly reports that provide information about issues affecting Australia's current and emerging labour market. This update brings together a range of Jobs and Skills Australia, and Australian Bureau of Statistics data sources to analyse the state of the Australian labour market in the March quarter of 2023. This update highlights: (1) the recent overall strength of the Australian labour market; (2) variations in outcomes across industries, occupations and skill levels - including strong recent employment outcomes for occupations where vocational education and training (VET) qualifications are the primary pathway; (3) a slight easing in recruitment difficulty and an increase in the likelihood of employers filling an advertised role; (4) improved recent results across a number of indicators of wages growth; (5) an expansion of preliminary analysis of the underlying drivers of skills shortage for the top 20 occupations in demand, to assess whether the shortage is primarily driven by a lack of people with the essential technical skills or by other factors - such as non-technical qualities considered important by employers or by willingness to apply for the vacancies under current conditions; and (6) a deep dive into key regional skills needs.

The Labour Market Updates are quarterly reports that provide information about issues affecting Australia's current and emerging labour market. This update brings together a range of Jobs and Skills Australia (JSA) and Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) data sources to analyse the state of the Australian labour market in the September quarter of 2023.
The report found that around 88 per cent of total employment growth (over the year to August 2023) was in occupations that typically require post-school qualifications. This reflects the importance of the higher education and Vocational Education and Training (VET) systems to growing a high-skilled Australian workforce. Around 60 per cent of total employment growth over this period was in occupations where VET qualifications are the primary pathway. This is reinforced by JSA's latest projections, that suggest that by May 2028, 100 per cent of all roles will require at least a secondary education (or Skill Level 5), with 86 per cent requiring a tertiary qualification (or Skill Levels 1-4). Other highlights include: a weakening of labour market resilience; female employment growth is particularly strong; and persistent shortages for Aged or Disabled Carers, Electricians, Child Carers and Carpenters.
