Unemployment Falls For First Time Since 2008
The number of people in employment rose by 1,200 in 2012, the first increase since 2008.
The Central Statistics Office’s (CSO) Quarterly National Household Survey for the fourth quarter of 2012 reveals a decrease in unemployment of 19,200.
18,000 people leaving the labour market account for the majority of this figure.
While today's figures show employment growth, the CSO cautions that it is a very small positive figure.
