Payroll jobs estimates provide near real-time information about the performance of local labour markets. This data helps us to understand the impact and recovery of local areas throughout the pandemic.
Payroll jobs data is based on where employees live, rather than where they work. Payroll job estimates are not seasonally adjusted and will show a high degree of seasonable change during holiday periods. The payroll job data presented on this page is based on the SA3s which are located in the City of Newcastle LGA.
