Understanding the needs and aspirations of Australian Job Seekers
The atWork Australian Job Seeker Wellbeing Index
In partnership with atWork Australia, Huber Social developed the atWork Australia Job Seeker Wellbeing Index to understand the needs of many different job seekers and to identify key opportunities to focus on continuously improving their overall wellbeing.
The Index provides data driven insights on the needs of job seekers across eight key subgroups: (i) females (ii) First Nations peoples (iii) people living with disability, injury, or health condition (iv) youth (v) mature aged (vi) culturally and linguistically diverse (vii) refugees and (viii) people with prior justice system experience.
The Index was launched by Luke Howarth, the Assistant Minister for Youth & Employment Services. Watch as he speaks directly to each of the top five wellbeing needs of job seekers:
Being proud of one’s achievements
Being heard and respected by others
Having access to sufficient financial resources
Liking oneself (self-love)
Having a sense of purpose
