Report: Labour Market, 2014

This quarterly release analyses the labour market situation. Topics covered include unemployment, employment, redundancy, re-entry into employment, job vacancy, labour turnover, hours worked and income from work.

Key findings: The labour market remained tight, amid lower unemployment and an increase in job vacancies. While layoffs rose due to business restructuring, the rate of re-entry into employment among locals made redundant improved for the third consecutive quarter. Local employment growth trended higher, as foreign growth continued to moderate.
