has analysed unemployment and immigration data for the whole pandemic period and says the closed international borders and the reversal of interstate migration have kept nearly 170,000 potential employees out of Victoria’s labour force., a level not seen since the recession of the 1990s.show about 150,000 Victorians, or 4.4 per cent of the labour force, out of work.

Employers may have become too reliant on overseas migration to fill lower-paid jobs in the economy, helping to stifle wage growth, he told“Maybe the high level of skilled migration ... [had the] effect of keeping wage growth below inflation for a very long period of time,” he said. Ms Pennington believes it is the modern industrial relations system, and not migration, putting the brakes on wages.

“The composition of work has changed so much, toward part-time work, towards casualisation, alongside decreased unionisation, the erosion of collective bargaining and increasing gig work.”that the national economy will bounce back quickly from the present lockdowns and a tightening labour market, with unemployment expected to get close to 4 per cent in 2022, driving up wages in subsequent years.
