Five graphs show how the Australian family labour market is working

The Australian Bureau of Statistics has released its research into the labour force status of families.

A family is defined by the ABS as two or more related people who live in the same household, and can reflect couples with or without children, couples with dependents, single parents, and siblings living together.Bjorn Jarvis, head of labour statistics at the ABS, said the data was updated yearly to keep track of how different families were getting by.

The report broke down the employment status of people who are in families, and categorised it based on whether they had dependants or not. Nearly 400,000 families reported they had an employed single mother, while 121,000 reported they had an employed single father. The return to the workforce following pregnancy could also be seen in the figures, with many logging full-time employment when their child was five-years-of-age.
