Rate of unemployment drops, but businesses still struggle with filling jobs

On the jobs front, the unemployment rate has dipped to a new low as Canada has been been creating more jobs — including more opportunities for women, who face higher job losses in the pandemic.

Statistics Canada said Friday the country added 40,000 jobs last month and the rate of unemployment dropped to 5.1 per cent. The agency said women across all age groups made up the bulk of hiring in May, with employment steady for men.

As Eric Sorensen explains, even with this trend, businesses are still having trouble filling roles.
