Greater Sydney’s extended lockdown has cost the state economy over 10,000 jobs a day, based on the Institute of Public Affairs (IPA) analysis of the latest data.
The Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) revealed on Thursday that during the fortnight to July 17, the number of payroll jobs fell 2.4 percent across the nation. However, New South Wales was the hardest hit, losing 4.4 percent of its jobs.
