Jobless rate slowing, but it’s still on the right track

The CSO’s Quarterly National Household Survey (QNHS) gives a detailed picture of the Irish labour market in terms of employment, unemployment and the labour force.

It has become an even more important source of information on the economy as the National Accounts no longer provide reliable estimates for GDP/GNP and, thus, growth.

The QNHS for the second quarter of the year was released by the CSO last week.
