Quick Glance: Outlook on Labor Markets in California, New Jersey, and Connecticut
- There’s now at least one unemployed job seeker for every vacancy in five US states, indicating a loosening of the labor market in parts of the country.
- Connecticut joined California, Nevada, New Jersey, and Washington in the list of states where the ratio of jobless people per opening is one or more. Meanwhile, Arizona and New York are nearing parity with a rate of 0.9, according to February data from the US Bureau of Labor Statistics.
- The ratio of one or more in some states suggests a dynamic in the labor market being monitored by Federal Reserve officials for potential interest rate adjustments. This trend aligns with a gradual cooling and lower inflation.
- Nationally, the job market remains challenging, with job openings outnumbering unemployed individuals. The ongoing rate of 0.7 over 10 months implies the potential for every unemployed worker to find at least one available position.
