Saskatchewan’s unemployment rate in August was 7.9 per cent (seasonally adjusted), the lowest among the provinces and well below the national rate of 10.2 per cent.
“Our provincial economy is demonstrating the strongest recovery in the country from the challenges of the COVID pandemic and it’s thanks to the hard work of Saskatchewan people,” Immigration and Career Training Minister Jeremy Harrison said. “With the lowest unemployment rate in the nation, it’s clear people are getting back to work and helping our economy recover and grow.”
The unemployment rate for youth (15-24 years of age) at 15.3 per cent is also the lowest among the provinces and well below the national unemployment rate of 23.1 per cent (seasonally adjusted).
