Australia's Employment Growth Slows, Unemployment Steady at 4.1%

Despite a steady unemployment rate, slower job growth and a slight dip in participation signal potential economic shifts.

The Australian economy added 15,900 jobs in October, marking a slowdown in employment growth compared to previous months.
The unemployment rate remained unchanged at 4.1% for the third consecutive month, aligning with economists' expectations.
A slight decrease in the participation rate from 67.2% to 67.1% contributed to the stable unemployment figures.
Economists suggest the Reserve Bank of Australia may delay interest rate cuts, awaiting further declines in inflation and unemployment.
The labor market remains strong, with a notable increase in full-time employment, but growth is expected to moderate in line with economic forecasts.
