Treasury Round Up 2024

This edition of the Treasury Round Up is on Australia’s labour market.

It continues analysis started in the 2023 Employment White Paper, Working Future.

The Round Up explores how barriers in Australia’s labour market can prevent people and the economy from reaching their full potential.

Better understanding these barriers can help inform policy discussions and support the Australian Government’s objective of achieving sustained and inclusive full employment.

There are 4 articles in this edition:

• Labour market matching across skills and regions in Australia
• Exploring community resilience in Australia
• Employment behaviour of firms reliant on temporary migrants
• Address to the 2023 Policy Research Conference: Incentives for secondary earners and income support recipients
