The Labour Market Group (LMG) reports a big jump in job postings in January in Nipissing.
There were 533 job postings in the first month of the year.
That’s up 45 percent from the figure in December.
LMG says even though it’s a large increase, it’s not completely surprising.

They say that’s because seasonal trends typically show that December is the quietest month for the local job market.
Health care and social assistance was the top hiring industry followed by retail trade and manufacturing.
The top five employers in January include:
- North Bay Regional Health Centre
- Cascades Casino
- Voyageur Aviation Corp
- Ontario Northland
- District of Nipissing Social Services Administration Board
