SYDNEY (Reuters) -Australian employment rose only marginally in June as the jobless rate jumped to the highest since late 2021, showing perhaps the first crack in what had been an unusually resilient labour market and adding to the case for a rate cut next month. Figures from the Australian Bureau of Statistics out on Thursday showed net employment rose 2,000 in June from May, when it fell by an upwardly revised 1,100.
