Proportion Blue Collar Workers

The proportion of people (aged 15 and over) who reported that they work as blue collar workers, including technicians and trades workers, machinery operators and drivers, and labourers, for their main job in the week prior to the 10th of August for the 2021 Australian Census. If there is too large a blue collar worker proportion in a region, this can be an indicator that the area is over-reliant on 1 or 2 core labour-based industries, for example, mining.
