HONG KONG (Reuters) – Hong Kong’s seasonally adjusted unemployment rate held steady at 3.1% in the September-November period versus the prior three-month period, the government said on Tuesday.
“The labour market should remain largely stable in the near term, though the situation in some sectors might be more affected by increased uncertainties in the global economy and escalation in trade tension,” Chris Sun, secretary for labour and welfare, said in a statement.
