    • 60 higher than at the end of the previous quarter
    • 10 higher than at the end of the corresponding quarter in 2018 (Q2 2018)
  • the non-seasonally adjusted ASW total was 820; this total is 20 lower than at the end of the previous quarter and essentially unchanged when compared to a year earlier 
  • the total number of long-term ASW (registered for more than twelve months) was 200; this total is essentially unchanged when compared to the previous quarter and 10 higher than a year earlier
  • there were 260 individuals registered as ASW but engaged in some form of paid employment and classified as underemployed; this includes 80 individuals also classified as long-term ASW
