# 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 June 2010 Roy Morgan employment estimates (surveyed before Julia Gillard became Prime Minister in late June) shows Australian unemployment (682,000, down 121,000 from May 2010) and Australian underemployment (753,000, down 131,000) and represent the most encouraging news about the state of the Australian economy we have seen in some time.
“The June 2010 figures are the first time all the indicators — full-time unemployment (397,000, down 69,000), part-time unemployment (285,000, down 52,000) and underemployment (753,000, down 131,000) have all fallen in the same month since the Global Financial Crisis began nearly two years ago, in September 2008.
“Although total underemployment and unemployment (1,435,000) is still higher than it was at the onset of the GFC in July — September 2008 (1,319,000) this month’s falls indicate that the Australian economy is well on its way to recovery despite the worries about debt problems in Europe that continue to subdue the Australian sharemarket — down around 15% since its yearly high above 5,000 in mid-April 2010.
“However, despite these encouraging unemployment numbers, it is vital the Reserve Bank of Australia — which meets tomorrow to decide whether to adjust Australian interest rates — does not make the same mistake it made between August 2007 and March 2008 when it raised interest rates on four separate occasions by a total of 1% (to a 13 year high of 7.25%).
“The RBA’s decision to raise interest rates during this period even as massive credit problems began to emerge in the US and European economies (starting in July 2007 that eventually led to the GFC) meant the Australian economy almost tipped into a recession it should never have had to worry about.
“The Roy Morgan July 2010 unemployment estimate will be the first to measure the impact of the recent minimum wage rise and the implementation of new IR laws and enterprise agreements that came into operation on July 1.”
This Roy Morgan survey on Australia’s unemployment and ‘under-employed’* is based on weekly interviews covering January 2007 — June 2010 and in total 182,386 Australians aged 14 and over were interviewed face-to-face including 4,221 interviews in June 2010.
*The ‘underemployed’ 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 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!
