The indicators cover:
- gender
- Indigenous staffing
- the level of part time employment (which is closely linked to gender)
- age
- the proportion of the workforce aged over 55 is an indicator of the impact of ageing and shows exposure to retirements.
- changes in the youngest and middle age cohorts may indicate issues relating to workforce renewal and succession.
- length of service
- this illustrates the mix of new and longer term employees and the relative balance of workforce renewal, stability, and the retention of knowledge and skills.
In general, this report shows distributions and the proportion of staff in set categories and uses the common terms and measures described earlier in this document.
