Unemployment in Australia
 
Hello,
Some cheery news that seems to be filtering through many Australian news outlets. Unemployment in Oz is at a 30 year low of 5.1%. This figure seems to be similar across many states. Prospects of finding work look fairly promising from this data as does the current economy. Unemployment is very low in our town in UK so glad to see these figures released this week.

Maybe so, however we have to remember our casual workers who cannot get full-time employment and are not counted as unemployed! Young people without qualifications really struggle with gaining full-time work. Many have to work two or three jobs to get reasonable hours.
