Work and income

Statistics about work count and describe people in New Zealand who are in paid employment, unemployed (not in paid work) or not in the labour force. 

Other work statistics give information about the labour market (including supply of and demand for labour) and the labour force (people working or available for work).

Also available is information about the kinds of occupations and industry in New Zealanders, and type of work (salaried and waged employment, full and part-time work, and self-employment).


Income information records the sources and distribution of income. It includes information about New Zealanders' gross income levels from salaries and wages, self-employment and government transfers.
