Deadline extended for completion of Transport surveys - Workforce Australia

 

Deadline extended for completion of transport surveys

The Local Jobs Programs in the Illawarra South Coast, Capital Region and Murray Riverina have joined together to form a new organisation - the Work Transit Alliance - to work collaboratively to address transport barriers to employment across southern NSW.

As a first step, the Alliance has engaged Sparrowly Group to undertake foundational research to understand and build an evidence base for the transport-related barriers and opportunities in the region.  Our key focus areas are the Shoalhaven, Eurobodalla and Bega Valley.

The research is progressing well; however, we need your help.
 
Can you please share the below surveys and accompanying message within your organisation and across your networks (including newsletters and social media) to allow employers, employees and jobseekers to provide feedback on their personal experiences on employment related transport?
 

*** The closing date for completion of the survey is now
Monday, 17 November 2025 ***


Message:

Are you an employee, jobseeker or employer?
