Employment across Canada rises by over 100,000

Date

Canada appears to be very promising for migration as the job market and employment is showing upward trends. As a Canada Immigration Consultant in Kerala, it was astonishing to learn about the latest statistics released in December 2022 that employment in Canada rose 0.5 percent over the month with a drop in national unemployment to 5.0%. The general employment trends across the country show a very healthy growth in the average hourly wages and a very conducive work environment. 

A good percentage of migrants who come to the country aspire to seek a better life with higher-paying jobs and steadier employment. With an aging population set to retire in the coming years, there is an acute shortage of labor force particularly skilled workers. 

It is also worth noting that there is an employment boom in the private sector as the recent numbers in the month of December 2022 indicate the number of employees in the private sector to have jumped by 112,000. There have also been improvements in employment outcomes for different age groups in the country with a job increase of 69,000 for people aged 24 and above and also a rise of 31,000 for those of age 55 or older.

Off all the sectors employment in the healthcare and social assistance industry fell by 17,000 jobs which indicates a drop of 0.7% over the month of December where as there has been a steady indication in employment growth in the following industries.

Construction: An increase of 2.3% in December by around 35,000 jobs.
