This spread sheet shows all of the State Suburbs for the ACT and the % of the 15-64 year old population within each Socio-Economic Indexes for Individuals (SEIFI) IRSD group. The data used to create this information was the same as used in the research paper “Socio-Economic Indexes for Areas: Getting a handle on individual diversity within areas” by Phillip Wise and Rosalynn Mathews. It is advised that this paper is read to further develop an understanding of the concepts and caveats associated with the analytical output contained in the spreadsheet.

Group 1 – Approx. most disadvantage 20% of the 15-64 year old population
Group 2 – Approx. second most disadvantaged 20% of the 15- 64 population
Group 3 – Approx. second least disadvantaged 30% of the 15-64 year old population
Group 4 – Approx. least disadvantaged 30% of the 15-64 year old population

Please also note that not all ACT CDs have been included as their populations are below the ABS population count threshold (<3), those removed are:
- 8013801 in Reid
- 8012805 in Turner
- 8014302 in Kingston
- 8021701 in Unclassified ACT
- 8010110 in Bonner
- 8023401 in Tharwa
- 8010103 in Unclassified ACT
- 8014305 in Kingston
- 8014803 in Forrest

It should be noted that multiple Compact Discs of data make up this dataset, as a result the data for each suburb is distributed across several discs. This cccounts for the multiple rows of data that appear for each suburb.

Diversity in the ACTPS workforce from June 2012

The ACTPS continues to encourage voluntary disclosure by employees. Diversity percentages are based on total ACTPS headcount which assumes that all respondents do not identify as one or more of the diversity groups, which is likely to result in under-reporting of the actual proportion of diversity groups in the ACTPS.
Diversity statistics are also provided in Annual Reports and monitored through the ACTPS Respect, Equity and Diversity Framework. Workforce data in this section has been presented in a way that protects the identity of individual employees.

Note on Averages: Salary averages here are inclusive of part-time and casual employees.

Please see the attached document for additional notes.

Roughly, the most disadvantaged 10% of the 15–64 year old population falls into group 1, whilst group 10 contains the most advantaged 10%. The smallest group in terms of 15–64 year old population proportion is group 6 with 7.78%, compared to group 7 with the largest percentage at 12% due to clustering at this point in the distribution of scores.
Group 1 – Approx. 9.6% of the 15-64 year old population
Group 2 – Approx. 10.0% of the 15-64 year old population
Group 3 – Approx. 11.5% of the 15-64 year old population
