Figure 11: Projected growth in the supply of tradespeople, 2010 to 2015, by state and territory, percentage change, average case scenario Vic 3.9% WA 5.4% States and territories NT Aus SA NSW Qld 6.0% 6.6% 6.9% 7.6% 8.2% ACT 9.3% Tas 10.9% 0 2 4 6 8 10 12 Source: Karmel and Mlotkowski, 2010 per cent It is concerning that Western Australia’s supply is not expected to increase as rapidly as most other states given its resources sector’s needs and the reluctance of people to move from the east coast to Western Australia. State skill formation by occupation It is also concerning that in Western Australia, growth in the net supply in the key electrical trade is low by comparison with other states, particularly as it has been identified as an occupation likely to be in shortage from 2012 (see Figure 12). 36 | National Resources Sector Employment Taskforce: Technical Paper
Figure 12: Projected growth in supply of selected tradespeople, 2010 to 2015, by state and territory, percentage change, average case scenario NSW 10.9% 18.3% Vic 6.4% 12.4% States and territories Qld SA WA Tas NT 7.2% 3.0% 4.4% 5.6% 7.4% 7.7% 14.3% 16.4% 25.4% 36.5% ACT 15.7% 81.0% Aus 7.1% 16.7% 0 10 20 30 40 50 60 70 80 90 per cent Fabrication engineering trades workers Electricians Source: Karmel and Mlotkowski, 2010 The NCVER examined the resources sector’s expected share of trade and apprentice employment, which in February 2010 was 5.6 per cent, or 90,000 people. The majority were concentrated in other construction services (29,700), metal ore mining (15,700), heavy and civil engineering construction (12,500) and coal mining (11,500). Those trades in which the resources sector’s share was higher than its overall share of trade employment included horticultural trades which have a significant role in site rehabilitation (26.9 per cent), mechanical engineering trades (15.3 per cent), building and engineering technicians (12.8 per cent) and fabrication engineering trades (8.5 per cent). Electricians came in slightly below at 5.5 per cent. The resources sector’s overall share of trade apprentices is lower than its share of trade employment. In December 2009, the sector employed 6,776 (3.6 per cent) trade apprentices. The majority were concentrated in other construction services (3,497), heavy and civil engineering construction (1,129), other mining support services (793) and metal ore mining (638). Projections on the future supply of trade skills to the resources sector NCVER analysis (average case scenario) suggests if the resources sector maintains its share of tradespeople, it will employ approximately 95,000 in 2015.
