Brad Olsen: Infometrics Principle Economist on rising Employment Confidence Index

Another sign of hope on the horizon for jobseekers.  The latest quarterly Westpac-McDermott Miller Employment Confidence Index has risen for the first time in over two years, off the back of a three-and-a-half-year low.  Public sector workers are more pessimistic than private sector workers about their earning prospects.  But there's growing confidence, across the board, about the availability of jobs.  Infometrics’ Brad Olsen told Tim Beveridge that it’s another sign that we’re maybe starting to reach the end of the really difficult periods people are facing.  LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
