KPMG's annual survey of Australian business leaders reveals that the nation's housing crisis is the biggest social issue impacting their operations. Nearly half of the surveyed executives believe the lack of progress on housing affordability poses a threat to businesses, as employees struggle to find affordable accommodation, impacting their ability to work and commute. The survey ranks housing affordability as the top social challenge, highlighting its growing impact on the workforce.

The unemployment rate is at historical lows, falling a further 20 basis points to 3.9 per cent in November, with the vast bulk of the hiring in the public sector.
