DEEWR Monthly Leading Indicator of Employment - September 2012

Date published : 4  September  2012

It is too early to confirm that a renewed quickening in the pace of employment growth above its longterm trend rate of 1.7 per cent per annum is in prospect, because the Indicator has risen for fewer than six consecutive months. Cyclical employment, which appeared to have reached an inflexion point recently, has resumed its downward trajectory (having now fallen for nineteen consecutive months).
