Abstract: | There has been a growing awareness that the issue of labour market disadvantage is substantially greater than merely considering unemployment and the ability to find a job. There is an increasing literature that points to the advantages of considering a broader concept which accounts not only for those people who are traditionally unemployed, but also for individuals who are underemployed and those who are sub-unemployed or discouraged workers. Taking multidimensional survey and census data for Australian metropolitan regions, this paper applies a broad employability framework to an understanding of labour underutilisation which presents the risk of underutilisation as a function of individual characteristics, personal circumstances and the impact of local labour market characteristics. The analysis finds that the risk of labour underutilisation is associated with a range of individual characteristics and personal circumstances together with the characteristics of the metropolitan local labour market. | DOI: | 10.1177/0042098008089865 | URL: | https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/abs/10.1177/0042098008089865?casa_token=V_cNVoDc_ysAAAAA:7Ij6S25q6N15vXxxZItOcF3wGr4bWFbPFOR94ZzZlcJdmE6Ti1IF6-7aKBItqbMY_QwMo60_3rCUMSg | Keywords: | Location -- Metropolitan/urban; Location; Employment | Research collection: | Journal Articles |
