The temporary positions offer flexible working hours across weekdays, evenings and weekends, making them suitable for a wide range of people, including students, part-time workers, retirees and anyone looking for additional work. No previous experience is required, with full training and support provided.

The ABS is encouraging people from all backgrounds to apply, helping ensure the Census workforce reflects the diversity of Australian communities.
Beyond providing local employment opportunities, the Census plays a vital role in ensuring communities like Guyra are accurately represented. Census information is used by governments, businesses and community organisations to plan essential services and infrastructure, including health care, education, housing, transport and community facilities.
Every completed Census helps build a clearer picture of the region’s population and needs, providing the evidence used to guide future planning and funding decisions. Accurate Census data helps ensure regional communities receive the services and investment they need as they grow and change.
For Guyra, strong Census participation means:
• More accurate data to support funding for local services and infrastructure.
• Flexible employment opportunities for local residents.
• Better representation of the region’s population and future needs.
• Stronger evidence to support community planning and investment.
