Abstract: - We analyse how MÄ ori, Pasifika, and Europeans have been impacted in previous labour market cycles. - We find that MÄ ori and Pasifika are much more exposed to labour market fluctuations than Europeans. - Contractions in labour market activity also last considerably longer than falls in gross domestic product (GDP). - Further work will compare these findings with the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic crisis in more detail.
