Time series: Number of Workforce Australia Services participants on caseload each month by cohort, allowance group (October 2022 onwards) 1.0

A total count of participants who were in service in the Workforce Australia Services employment service program at a given point in time, as calculated by counting participant identifiers with a related contract referral placement that has a contract type of 'PRO6' (Workforce Australia Services) and a placement status code value of 'PND' (Pending), 'COM' (Commenced) or 'SUS' (Paused) that were in DEWR IT systems at a given date.

A contract referral placement is the instance of a participant establishing a service relationship with a provider's site within an employment region for a specific employment service program. They are used in combination with participant identifiers for this count as a participant may have a pending placement in one program while currently commenced in another and therefore can be counted as 'in service' in more than one program at a time.

This table is presented as a time series, with each row representing the count of participants as at a given date e.g., the row with a Caseload Date of '31-Oct-22' has the number of participants currently in service at that date, the row with '30-Nov-22' has the number of participants in service at that date and so on.
