Abstract

This discussion group focussed on questions surrounding the changing structure of the New Zealand work-force. The major questions in this field are to identify what it is they must decides and why it requires explanation. Trends must be identified and “forecasts” made of changes in the work-force, drawing attention to the range of policy “interventions’ they imply. This overall task involves examining changes in the demand for labour (the supply of jobs) and the supply of labour (the demand of jobs).
