DESE - Labour Market - Summary Data (SA4) December 2020

This dataset presents data on the summary statistics of employment and population for the Statistical Area Level 4 (SA4) regions as of December 2020. The boundaries for this dataset follow the 2016 edition of the Australian Statistical Geography Standard (ASGS).\n\nThe Australian Department of Education, Skills and Employment publishes a range of labour market data on its [Labour Market Information Portal](http://lmip.gov.au). The data provided includes unemployment rate, employment rate, participation rate, youth unemployment rate, unemployment duration, population by age group and employment by industry and occupation.\n\n AURIN has spatially enabled the [original data](https://lmip.gov.au/default.aspx?LMIP/Downloads/ABSLabourForceRegion). Data Source: ABS Labour Force Survey. All statistics are 12-month averages of original data, December 2020. The ABS advises that analysis of regional labour force estimates should typically be based on annual averages, which are important for understanding the state of the labour market and providing medium and long-term signals. The application of annual averages, however, is unlikely to accurately or quickly detect turning points in the regional data during periods of significant change (such as during the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic). Original data at the ABS Statistical Area 4 (SA4) level can be found in [Table 16](https://www.abs.gov.au/AUSSTATS/abs@.nsf/DetailsPage/6291.0.55.001Apr%202020?OpenDocument). The region named "Western Australia - Outback (North and South)" in the original data has been omitted as it did not match a region within the SA4 2016 ASGS.本数据集呈现了截至2020年12月的统计区域4级（Statistical Area Level 4，SA4）的就业与人口汇总统计数据。本数据集的地理边界遵循2016版《澳大利亚统计地理标准》（Australian Statistical Geography Standard，ASGS）。 澳大利亚教育、技能与就业部在其[劳动力市场信息门户（Labour Market Information Portal）](http://lmip.gov.au)发布了一系列劳动力市场数据。所提供的数据涵盖失业率、就业率、劳动参与率、青年失业率、失业持续时长、分年龄组人口数据，以及分行业与职业的就业情况。 AURIN已为[原始数据](https://lmip.gov.au/default.aspx?LMIP/Downloads/ABSLabourForceRegion)赋予空间属性。数据来源：澳大利亚统计局（Australian Bureau of Statistics，ABS）劳动力调查。所有统计值均为以2020年12月为终端的12个月原始数据平均值。澳大利亚统计局提示，区域劳动力估算分析通常应基于年度平均值，这类数据对于理解劳动力市场现状、提供中长期趋势信号具有重要意义。不过，在重大变革时期（如新冠疫情暴发初期），使用年度平均值难以准确且快速地捕捉区域数据的趋势转折点。澳大利亚统计局统计区域4级（SA4）层级的原始数据可参见[表16](https://www.abs.gov.au/AUSSTATS/abs@.nsf/DetailsPage/6291.0.55.001Apr%202020?OpenDocument)。原始数据中名为“西澳大利亚州——内陆（北部与南部）”的区域因未匹配2016版ASGS的SA4区域，已被剔除。
