# The revised Howard Government ‘Work Choices’ Legislation was implemented in late 2006,
just prior to the time period when the survey began in January 2007.
Gary Morgan says:
“The latest September Roy Morgan unemployment (775,000 — 6.9%, down 0.5%) and underemployment (909,000 — 8.2%, up 1.2%) estimates show that the Australian economy is yet to fully emerge from the global economic slowdown.
“The positive to draw from the latest figures is the continued fall in the Roy Morgan unemployment estimate — now down for its third straight month. However, the rate of underemployment in Australia continues to be a large concern — rising substantially (up 111,000) to 909,000 in September.
“Although headline levels of unemployment are not at the levels of previous recessions, the high level of underemployment shows the real effect the global slowdown has had on the Australian economy.
“Importantly, the Reserve Bank of Australia meets next Tuesday October 6, 2009 to consider the level of interest rates in the Australian economy. The September Roy Morgan unemployment and underemployment estimates released today demonstrate that caution is the best policy for the RBA when considering whether to adjust interest rates.
“In recent weeks there has been much media ‘speculation’ that the RBA is likely to begin raising interest rates before the end of this year. Being aware that nearly 1.7 million Australians remain either unemployed or underemployed is essential if the RBA is to make the correct decision at its meeting.”
This Roy Morgan survey on Australia’s unemployment and ‘under-employed’* is based on weekly interviews covering January 2007 — September 2009 and in total 143,912 Australians aged 14 and over were interviewed face-to-face including 4,325 interviews in September 2009.
*The ‘under-employed’ are those people who are in part-time work or consultants who are looking for more work. (Unfortunately the ABS does not measure this figure in their monthly unemployment survey.)
** The Fair Work Bill 2009 was introduced into the House of Representatives on 25 November, 2008. The Fair Work Act 2009 received Royal Assent on 7 April 2009.

The Roy Morgan Unemployment estimate is obtained by surveying an Australia-wide cross section by face-to-face interviews. An unemployed person is classified as part of the labour force if they are looking for work, no matter when. The results are not seasonally adjusted and provide an accurate measure of monthly unemployment estimates in Australia.
The Australian Bureau of Statistics Unemployment estimates are obtained by mostly telephone interviews. Households selected for the ABS Survey are interviewed each month for eight months, with one-eighth of the sample being replaced each month. The first interview is conducted face-to-face. Subsequent interviews are then conducted by telephone.
The ABS classifies an unemployed person as part of the labour force only if, when surveyed, they have been actively looking for work in the four weeks up to the end of the reference week and if they were available for work in the reference week.
The Australian Bureau of Statistics Unemployment estimates are also seasonally adjusted.
For these reasons the Australian Bureau of Statistics Unemployment estimates are different from the Roy Morgan Unemployment estimate.
Gary Morgan's concerns regarding the ABS Unemployment estimate is clearly outlined in his letter to the Australian Financial Review, which was not published!
