In October, amid the backdrop of the ongoing conflict, Israel experienced a significant decline in the number of vacant job positions within its economy. The data, as reported by the Central Bureau of Statistics, indicates that there was an 18% decrease in vacant jobs, dropping from 114.3 thousand in September to 93.4 thousand in October, when considering seasonally adjusted figures. Notably, this marked the lowest point in job vacancies since February 2021 when there were 85.8 thousand vacancies, coinciding with the end of the third COVID lockdown. This decline also put an end to nearly three years during which job vacancies remained notably higher than the pre-coronavirus crisis level of approximately one hundred thousand.
