The pie chart gives a breakdown of the Australian workforce according to their place of birth in 2003, and the line graph shows its unemployment rate between 1993 and 2003.
Overall, the overwhelming majority of the labor force in Australia was of Australian nationality. Additionally, the total levels of unemployment in the country experienced a decrease, with NESC dominating the entire period in question.
Regarding the origins of the workforce, the proportion of native Australian workers was the highest, at just over three-fourths of the total (76%). This was distantly followed by NESC and ESC groups, accounting for 14% and 10% respectively.
Turning to the joblessness levels, initially, approximately 7% of those coming from non-English-speaking countries were unemployed. Despite witnessing a drop to roughly 3% in the final year, this group of workers still held its dominant position throughout. The other two categories, Australia and ESC, almost exactly mirrored this downward trend, albeit at lower rates, which fell from nearly the same starting point (at around 4%) to about 2% for the former and just below 2% for the latter.
