CAPE TOWN - Cape Town has added over 200-000 new jobs over the last year -- a figure greater than all the other metros combined.
This is according to the latest StatsSA Quarterly Labour Force survey for July to September 2023.
The metro’s unemployment rate has also fallen by 3.8 percent year-on-year.
The City says its employment rates have been above pre-Covid levels for three consecutive quarters.
To enable further job-creating economic growth, officials are investing a record R43-billion in infrastructure over three years, alongside advanced plans to rolling blackouts.
