WORKFORCE:
It is estimated that by 2056 Western Australia’s workforce will be 2.2 to 2.9 million, up from 1.2 million in 2012 (Figure 9). This infers that an additional 1.0 to 1.7
million workers may be required to maintain the State’s anticipated level of economic development.
Therefore, if the anticipated workforce in 2056 is to be fully employed, 23,000 to 39,000 jobs per year will need to be created.
The changing face of the global economy and the continued diversification of the State’s economic base will further intensify the competition for labour. The recruitment and retention of a skilled workforce will continue to be an important issue.

DIVERSIFICATION:
Western Australia must continue to diversify its economy to facilitate a broader mix of industries and occupations that can make for a resilient and ultimately prosperous society.
Agriculture in the ‘Asian century’ will provide significant opportunities for increased diversities in the State’s economic base that will give resilience to economic fluctuations, such as for commodity prices.
