Work index = share of E-3 jobs ÷ share of Australian residents. Above 1.0 means more Australians are sponsored to work here than live here. Below 1.0 means more settle here by choice.
E-3 filings are job applications, not individual people — renewals and amendments inflate counts. For population, refer to Census figures. Sources: US Census ACS B05006, US DOL LCA disclosures.
