The Dept of Social Services Jobseekers data for March has been released which allows us to estimate our Conus Trend series from the original, unadjusted data. What it shows us is further falls in the number of people claiming either Newstart or Youth Allowance in the North.
Our Conus/CBC Staff Selection Trend series for the Cairns and Townsville SA4 regions shows Trend Jobseekers in Cairns fell in March to 8,335 (the lowest since Jan 2013) while Townsville also saw a fall to 7,186 (the lowest since Apr 2015).
Our experimental Conus Trend data set for all the QLD SA4 regions shows a decline in Greater Brisbane of 530 to 41,770, while in the Rest of Queensland we saw a decline of 847 to 62,437.
In the past year we have seen a decline of more then 12,000 in Trend Jobseekers across the State with 6,724 of those coming from the Rest of Queensland and 5,294 from Greater Brisbane.
The Conus/CBC Staff Selection Jobseeker Trend data for Cairns an Townsville is available for download below. Please feel free to use this data but kindly acknowledge Conus/CBC Staff Selection when you do so.
