DESCRIPTION:

Royal Life Saving is pleased to launch new research and advocacy into the state of the national aquatic industry workforce.

The Australian aquatic industry continues to lead the way in recognising the skills and experience of older workers and women, with the National Aquatic Industry Workforce Report 2023 also revealing improvements in Indigenous employment rates.

The report, which was conducted by Royal Life Saving Society – Australia, presents demographic information on the key roles and make-up of the workforce across Australia and builds on research previously undertaken in 2019. More than 2000 workers completed the detailed survey which informed the report.

Royal Life Saving hosted a webinar on Wednesday 19th July to launch the report and present its key findings.

We are pleased to be joined by an expert panel of presenters and speakers including:

* Shaun Jackson, RLSSA
* Nicky Sloan, City Venue Management
* Georgie Nichol, AUSTSWIM
* Grant Connors, Belgravia Leisure
