Census 2011 needs workers
The Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS ) requires 43,000 people from the community to help count our nation.
They are currently recruiting Area Managers and will soon be calling for expressions of interest from Census Collectors. Local people are wanted.
If you wish to find out more about the upcoming Census positions go to the Australian Bureau of Statistics Website and register your interest.
Statistics from the census are necessary for communities, private institutions and all levels of government when planning infrastructure, community services and facilities in your area. Federal funding arrangements to the states and territories, including allocation of GST revenue, are also based on Census information.
You can use them too. For statistics specifically packaged for Sutherland Shire, view the Sutherland Shire Council Community Profile on Council's website. It offers a topic and/or suburb view from the last census in 2006.
