Historically low unemployment remains
Whilst economic growth is forecast to slow later this year with rising interest rates, and inflation in Australia is expected to have peaked, the labour market continues to be very tight. Seasonally adjusted unemployment has slightly dropped to 3.5% whilst underemployment remains steady, and the participation rate has decreased. Current predictions have the unemployment rate forecast to remain low until mid-2023 before rising as economic output slows.
