Derived from the Census question, 'What is the person's date of birth (or age last birthday)?'
The Age Structure of an industry's workforce is a key component to understanding the role and function of that industry in The Hills Shire. It is an indicator of the age of the industry and how long it has been established in the area, as well as the possible challenges in expanding that industry in the future.
For example a young workforce may be more mobile and likely to change jobs/industries in the future while an industry with an older workforce may face succession planning issues and challenges in attracting new staff.
For a more complete workforce analysis for The Hills Shire, Age Structure should be viewed in conjunction with Income and Hours Worked.
This data describes the age (by sex) of people employed in the selected industry. Includes all persons working in the area regardless of where they live.
