Unemployment in Sydney's south-west remains high but upskilling migrants could hold the key

ameliabrownn012

Dani Al Kateb is young, strong and willing to work, but he hasn't landed a steady job since arriving from Iraq in 2020.


He lives in Warwick Farm in Sydney's south-west, where the 7.3 per cent unemployment rate is more than double the nation's average of 3.5 per cent, according to June 2022 Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) data.


Mr Al Kateb, 23, cleaned surgery theatres in Iraq and said additional English classes would help him both apply and secure a job here.
