July 2024 Unemployment and Jobs Press Release 
August 16, 2024 |
|
| "According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, Vermont has an estimated 17,000 open jobs, down from the historic highs set in 2021 and 2022 when openings were regularly above 20,000. Today’s numbers look more like those we saw pre-pandemic, from 2018 and 2019, when the most pressing barrier to economic growth in Vermont was a shrinking labor force. As the population has grown in recent years, and the number of open jobs has slightly decreased, many individuals are approaching retirement, creating additional opportunities for job seekers of all backgrounds and experiences.
With more than two open jobs for every unemployed Vermonter, there are abundant employment opportunities across the State, and the Department of Labor is just a call or click away. To learn more about the Department’s workforce services or to find a Vermont Job Center near you, visit https://labor.vermont.gov/workforce-development." |
