The Western Australian Local Government Association (WALGA) has prepared a tailored information pack for our Shire on the impact of COVID-19 on the local economy.
The data that informed this report was based on publicly available data and outlines:
- How employment in different industries has been impacted in each Shire since the start of the pandemic.
- The proportion of each Shire’s labour force that were accessing the JobSeeker subsidy in March, April, May and June.
- The proportion of organisations within each Shire that were accessing the JobKeeper subsidy in April and May.
- The overall economic impact of COVID-19 on each Shire relative to other Shire’s and regions.
You can view the report here.
