 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.

workforce and suffers from an ‘image’ problem.
We need to attract a more diverse workforce to meet future labour demands.

Editor's Notes

  1. Integrated Stadium & Entertainment Centre (ISEC) - The State Government has committed $140M to the project, NRL and North Queensland Cowboys has committed $10M and at a Federal level, $100M has been committed. Stage One of this project will now commence.  How is this project broken down and how it affects you: $1.9B – ISEC will accelerate development of the planned $1.9B waterfront redevelopment 1,650 jobs created in the construction phase $130M in wages and salary in the construction phase $675M in additional economic output in the construction phase $5M annual gross value add once ISEC is complete 37,000 new visitors to the region each year $2M annual visitor spend once ISEC is complete Population growth – The Townsville North Queensland Region has a population of approximately 233,907, projected to grow to 361,098 by 2036. Townsville embraces 78 new residents each week – with an annual population growth of approximately 2.4%. Townsville was ranked as the seventh fastest and largest growth region in the State between 2010 and 2011. Townsville’s demographic profile is currently skewed towards the working age population and therefore is well placed to cater to new commercial enterprises. http://www.movetotownsville.com.au/economic-snapshot The city has a vision for its CBD to become a hub for more than 30,000 workers and residents by 2030. Watch this space! The Townsville North Queensland Region Destination Tourism Strategy is due to come out with the next 4 year plan this year. This will drive employment to the region and strengthen growth needed for some industries. Townsville Hospital redevelopment, $434 million, 945 jobs. Townsville Ring Road final 11.5km section, $200 million, 290 jobs. CLARE (near Townsville): Solar energy farm (FRV), $400 million, 200 construction jobs.
