Which Group Am I In?
The ABS uses broad industry classifications, which means there is a lot of earnings variation within each industry and in some cases a lot of very different jobs, especially in Professional Services and Personal Services. If you’re not sure where your industry is on this list, it may be in one of those two industries. Professional Services includes law, accounting, marketing, engineering, IT and scientific research. Personal Services includes beauty workers, personal trainers, dry cleaners, sex workers and maintenance and repairs workers. The latest ABS data also did not include figures for the agriculture industry.
