Brace for turn-around in the labour market
Brace for turn-around in the labour market
1 February 2023
Stats NZ is due to announce the latest official unemployment rate later this morning.
Some economists expect it to remain unchanged, while some expect it to drop to a new record low.
But ANZ Economist Finn Robinson says it won't necessarily reflect what will happen over the coming year.
He says there will likely be a softening of the labour market this year, with today's data reflecting the market's strength in the last year.
