Families, Incomes and Jobs, Volume 5: A Statistical Report on Waves 1 to 7 of the Household, Income and Labour Dynamics in Australia (HILDA) Survey

The HILDA Survey aims to provide a new type of social statistics for Australia, and to investigate new methods of measuring change and social trends. Volume 5 of the Statistical Report is based on the first seven waves of data collected by the HILDA Survey and comprises two parts. Part A contains short articles that provide an annual update of changes in key aspects of life in Australia, covering the four main areas of HILDA, namely:

• Households and family life;
• Incomes and economic wellbeing;
• Labour market outcomes; and
• Life satisfaction, health and wellbeing.

The second part of the report, Part B, contains articles on irregular topics, to a significant extent influenced by wave-specific questions included in the survey. Also included are articles by guest authors Dean Lillard, Alison Goode and Mark Wooden.
