are recorded as not published, never filled in; 0 could not be read (blocked, dead or unreachable) and count nowhere. The headline figures (median, minimum, maximum, quartiles) are over ONE figure per source in % (a source's median where its page yielded several accepted sentences), so N counts sources, never sentences; 30 candidate sentence(s) were refused by a reviewer with the reason recorded. Derivation as chartered: the Commission's lodgment counts by application type per financial year, joined to the ABS's count of people who left or lost a job and were retrenched in the same period, giving the derived figure neither body publishes: the DISPUTE RATE - applications per thousand separations - and its direction over years, beside the share of unfair dismissal applications resolved at conciliation. It is the number that tells a reader whether the notice they were given is worth arguing about, which is exactly what the buyer is deciding.", "embed": "
