Information on wage trends in federal collective agreements from the Department of Education, Employment and Workplace Relations is in the form of data tables. These tables include: current agreements, agreements lodged each quarter, expiring agreements and detailed breakdowns for type of agreement (EC - Employee Collective, UC - Union Collective, EG - Employer Greenfields, UG - Union Greenfields, LN), industry, sector and state.
If you wish to receive new data releases as they occur you can email ebtrends@deewr.gov.au and request to have your email address added to the distribution list.
This data is based on collective agreements in the DEEWR Collective Workplace Agreements Database (WAD) and includes estimates of employees weighted outcomes. The database contains all codeable collective agreements which have been certified by the Australian Industrial Relations Commission (AIRC) or lodged with the Workplace Authority (formerly the Office of the Employment Advocate) since the introduction of the Enterprise Bargaining Principle in October 1991.
CURRENT DATA AND PAST REPORTS
To interpret data in these tables correctly it is important to read the technical notes. These notes are also available in rich text format(rtf).
If you are unsure where your organisation sits within the ANZSIC structure, detailed explanations are available on the Australian Bureau of Statistics website.
