November 2021 Unemployment and Jobs Press Release 
December 17, 2021 |
|
| "November showed little change in our job market, according to data from Vermont businesses. The number of unemployed individuals continued to decline, falling by 548 in November. This brings the estimated unemployed population (as defined by Bureau of Labor Statistics data) down to 8,213 which is in line with pre-pandemic numbers from 2019. The unemployed population data is based on the household survey conducted by the U.S. Census Bureau, and not individuals collecting unemployment benefits. Conversely, the most recent data shows that in September, Vermont had an estimated 25,000 job openings. The combination of high demand and low supply continues to result in tight labor market conditions - not just in Vermont, but across the country.
The Department of Labor continues to work with schools, training providers and individuals looking to get back into the labor force to expediate their transition into employment. VermontJobLink.com now has over 20,000 job postings and the Department's Job Centers are open for those looking for assistance in getting back to work. Additionally, staff are working to meet Vermonters in local communities across the state by conducting office hours in unique locations such as local libraries, recreation facilities, and municipal centers, providing new opportunities to connect with jobseekers and employers in non-traditional settings.
If you would benefit from in-person or virtual job services, please contact our Workforce Development Division at Labor.Vermont.gov/Jobs or by calling 833-719-1051." |
