The Water Industry is found throughout Australia, from the largest cities to
the smallest remote communities. The importance of the industry cannot be overstated:
Australians know that they live on the driest continent and have become well
aware of the need to preserve this precious resource. Without the Water Industry,
no other Australian industry can survive.
Nationally, the Water Industry employs
approximately 44,000 staff and is experiencing skill shortages across each
of its sectors, particularly in the following roles:
- Water treatment operators
- Waste water operators
