Roy Morgan Research’s analysis of long-running trends in the Australian labour market by gender shows that strong increases in employment this century have been driven by large increases in both full-time and part-time employment for both women and men. However, although these increases have been shared between both genders, the increasing number of women joining the workforce has led to larger overall gains for women across overall employment, full-time employment, and also part-time employment. Roy Morgan Research CEO Michele Levine says the Australian workforce is undergoing generational change, with women entering the workforce in increasing numbers while men are driving the trend towards increasing part-time employment.
