Our policies promote jobs: Turnbull

Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull is trumpeting his government's policies for another surge in employment.

Employment grew by 61,600 in November, a 14th straight month of gains, while the jobless rate remained near a five-year low of 5.4 per cent.

"Our policies are restoring confidence to business, and business is responding by investing, creating more jobs, and hiring more workers," Mr Turnbull told reporters in Sydney.
