Australian Occupation Shortage List - Detailed Insights

This page provides a comprehensive overview of occupation shortages in the Australian labour market, offering valuable insights to help both employers and job seekers navigate employment opportunities.

The data presents a point-in-time assessment of occupations that are currently experiencing shortages, highlighting areas where there is high demand for skilled workers. Users can view the shortage data at both the 4-digit ANZSCO (Unit Group) and the 6-digit ANZSCO/OSCA (Occupation) levels, providing flexibility to explore the information in greater detail.

If there are changes in occupation shortages or if you're interested in applying for an employer-sponsored visa or state-sponsored skilled migration in one of the occupations listed, you can book a consultation with RACC to get tailored advice and assistance.
