Import and Export Industries in Australia (1 Viewer)

[charlie_charlie]

Would any body know what percentage the export/import industry makes up of our workforce? I can't seem to find it anywhere, but I keep thinking I've read it before somewhere.
thanks!

Tradeables is about 60 something percent I think. If you can dig up the CPI figures they are weighted to reflect the tradeables/nontradeables balance.

check in the abs website.....that may help

if i recall, the latest CPI figures were
-0.5% tradeables
+4.2% nontradeables
giving a total of 2.0% inflation
you should be able to figure out the weighting from there.
