Abstract

This group noted that labour market research has not been given high priority in New Zealand. We have no institutions analogous to those in Australia and the United Kingdom whose prime research objective is research into labour markets and employment. New Zealand's neglect probably stems from the long period of full employment. Research is also inhibited by data limitations including, most notably, the absence of a labour force survey. There is a need to develop longitudinal survey material.
