Factors influencing workforce mobility to regional mining and coastal towns: Moranbah

In this study the focus was to identify factors that would influence Mackay residents to relocate to coal mining communities such as Moranbah and Nebo. The information from the literature review and extended stakeholders analysis were used to design a survey for data collection. The survey needed to be broad enough to cater for key issues that might be important to different communities, and specific enough to provide useful feedback. The survey had to be simple and concise so that it was easy for respondents to complete, but still be capable of providing useful information.
