Hon GRANT ROBERTSON: The data also shows that the economy continued to add jobs, with 2,000 more people in work than in the December quarter, with the strongest growth in construction and manufacturing. The total number of people in work is now 114,000 above where it was in the—pre-COVID—December 2019 quarter. Hours worked did decline by 0.2 percent, which reflects the challenges from Omicron as more people were away from work due to illness or having to self-isolate. ANZ's economists said the labour market remained tight in the March quarter, despite the best efforts of the Omicron wave to disrupt things. With the indicators of labour demands still at or around record levels, ANZ are expecting that the labour market will further tighten over 2022 as domestic COVID disruptions ease, and this is where the important role of immigration will come into play as we fill much-needed skill gaps.
