Jobs and Skills Australia has released JSA Atlas, an interactive platform with government-sourced insights on national, state and regional labour markets.
The platform assists HR teams and business owners to:
- Review labour market conditions for certain occupations and industries
- Gain better insights into emerging areas of demand and forecasts
- Understand occupation shortages and workforce trends that inform government policy
Using the JSA Atlas tool to extract labour market insights can strengthen your business case for accessing the skilled migration program for particular occupations—whether you’re presenting to internal leadership or supporting your organisation’s Nomination applications for skilled migrants.
Interstaff has identified several other functions within JSA Atlas that support employers of visa holders:
This information can be used towards evidence of Annual Market Salary Rates (AMSR) where applicable, ensuring a visa applicant is paid what an Australian worker would earn for the same role and location.
Three and five year estimates can demonstrate medium to long-term difficulties in securing suitable candidates for a particular occupation.
This data can support workforce planning and strengthen claims to sponsor a visa applicant for an extended period or for Permanent Residence.
Data indicating the number of qualified and suitable applicants can be used to demonstrate limitations that may exist in the local labour market.
Statistics on occupational mobility, such as trends in the number of people moving in, out or staying in their role, can provide insights into local labour market retention.
Interstaff supports employers requiring sustainable global talent strategy to strengthen workforce capabilities.
