Abstract
to determine employment and plan ways to increase its contribution to economic growth. Like all industries, the
Australian maritime industry is competing for attention and resources in a busy world – from people working
within the industry, government and other stakeholders such as maritime’s larger siblings in the transport
industry: road and rail. This article examines how the maritime industry is currently defined in terms of
activities and, in particular, employment data. But the vexing question remains to be answered: just how many
people are employed in the Australian maritime industry? To answer this question the article investigates
different data collection approaches and finally presents a single, comparative snap shot on total employment
in the maritime sector of the Australian economy at the close of 2010.
