The number of people employed overall increased significantly in January 2023, with 150,000 new positions (or 5% of all positions) being filled across Canada in the first month of the year.
Many categories saw considerable increases in employment as a result of the robust hiring boom (especially employees aged 25 to 54), with Non-Permanent Residents (NPRs)—those who possess either a Study or Work Permit—observing particularly high increases in labour force participation.
Little has changed since December 2022 in terms of the historically low 5% national unemployment rate. At the end of 2022, the average unemployment rate for immigrants in Canada was 5.96%, which was a reflection of the abundance of employment prospects there.
