Recent survey by Volvo suggests the Transport & Logistics Industry has an ageing
workforce and suffers from an ‘image’ problem.
We need to attract a more diverse workforce to meet future labour demands.
CHALLENGES FOR ATTRACTING NEW WORKERS

11. 11 |
 Overall employment growth in the
transport and logistics industry to
2018-19 is expected to average 2.3%
per annum in Queensland.
 The current labour force has 12% of
employees aged 60+ years. This ageing
labour force coupled with the lowest
proportion of 15 - 24 year olds of any
industry sector will be at the forefront
of challenges facing transport and
logistics businesses.
