Many Queenslanders feel like they’re ‘missing out’ despite Australia’s record run of 27 years of uninterrupted economic growth.

A study from the Committee of Economic Development in Australia revealed higher levels of unemployment compared to national average, stagnant wage growth and the rising costs of living were likely factors.

Chief executive Melinda Cilento says 59 per cent of Queenslanders feel like they haven’t benefited from the consistent economic growth or are unsure of what they have gained.
