Joint MSD/DoL Quarterly Regional Labour Market Reports

This section contains archived information that has been retained for reference purposes. To view current reports, please go to the Labour Market Information section.

The Department of Labour and Ministry of Social Development jointly produce Regional Labour Market Reports, which provide a single point of reference for accurate labour market information that applies across consistent regional council boundaries. The reports provide the latest regional labour market information such as labour force participation, employment, unemployment and job vacancies. The publication of the reports occurs every three months within 24 hours of Statistics New Zealand’s release of the latest quarterly Household Labour Force Survey (HLFS) results. The reports draw on HLFS statistics, MSD beneficiary records and the Department’s Job Vacancy Monitor.

Further context and interpretation of labour market data can be found in MSD Regional Plans, and Department of Labour reports including the Labour Market Outlook, Skills in the Labour Market, the Job Vacancy Monitor, the Annual Regional Overview Report and the Annual In-depth Regional Labour Market Reports (due out in mid 2007).
