DESCRIPTION

Australia (2014) has a high cost, low productivity gas sector. Improving productivity of the work force holds out significant potential to support Australia's drive to become a world leading exporter of LNG. This presentation sets out recent global survey data on Australia's competitiveness, with specific focus on workforce related measures, and presents several case studies of how these productivity issues can be overcome.
