Profiling and tracking change in Australia's seafood workforce: establishing a baseline workforce dataset

Establishing a baseline workforce dataset for Australia's seafood industry has numerous advantages. It addresses the lack of accessible and accurate workforce data, providing a comprehensive understanding of the industry's dynamics. By aligning data with the operational reality of the seafood sector, the dataset can accurately represent the workforce and its activities. Incorporating whole-of-population statistical data enhances the analysis, while considering the diverse nature of employment within the industry ensures a comprehensive representation. Thorough assessment of current data sources and stakeholder engagement promotes collaboration and improves data quality. The project's recommendations for data gaps and enhancements support informed decision-making and contribute to the industry's long-term sustainability.
