The latest Bank of Ghana (BoG) Monetary Policy Report has shown a slight decrease in the number of advertised jobs in June this year.
In total, 2,968 job adverts were recorded in June 2024 as compared with 2,993 for the same period in 2023.
The report showed that the number of jobs advertised in selected print and online media, which partially gauges labour demand in the economy, remained largely unchanged in June 2024 relative to what was observed in the corresponding period a year ago.
“Cumulatively, for the first half of 2024, the total number of advertised jobs went up by 2.4 percent to 17,278, from 16,866 recorded during the same period in 2023”, it said.
The Monetary Policy Report highlights the economic and financial sector assessments that the Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) considered prior to the policy decision during the 119 th meeting held in July 2024.
