NEW ZEALAND: Statistics New Zealand's new experimental weekly employment
indicator series notes that "the most accurate measure, 'Number of paid jobs -
27 days', shows that in the week before the alert level 4 lockdown began and
non-essential businesses closed there were over 2.216 million paid jobs. This
fell to 2.108 million in the last week of alert level 4, before rising back to
almost 2.199 million jobs in the week ending 17 May 2020. The more timely, but
less accurate, measures indicate that number of paid jobs continue to rise
throughout May and dip again into the first week of June."
