Job Postings Remain Static as Toronto Moves Towards Phase 2
23 June 2020
Overall job postings for the period of May 30 to June 12th remained relatively static and have plateaued since late May. Postings are averaging between 2,200 and 2,500 per week.
While a far cry from the Pre-COVID postings in the 4,000 range, the numbers should get better as Toronto and Peel Region move to the next stage of economic reopening on Wednesday. During this next phase, restrictions will be eased for restaurant patios, barbershops, nail salons, malls, and recreational facilities.
Once Toronto enters into the next phase of reopening, we expect that our next release of job posting numbers will reflect more positive job information in retail, transportation, and hospitality.
