How many people have lost or gained their jobs so far in 2013? How many people have been fired or hired so far in 2013?
- In net numbers, NO jobs have been lost in 2013 so far.
- In net numbers, 2,322,000 jobs were ADDED in 2013.
The number of jobs reported as created or lost the first Friday of each month is a NET number: In other words, the number of jobs gained after all jobs lost are subtracted, or the number of jobs lost after all jobs gained are added. Remember that, in good times and bad, jobs are lost and jobs are added every month. In good times and bad, millions of people quit, millions of people are hired, and millions of people are laid off or fired every month.
NET jobs lost or gained as reported monthly can be found HERE: How Many Jobs Were Created or Lost in 2013 to date?
The monthly JOLTS report (Jobs Openings, Layoffs, Turnover Survey), breaks down the number of people hired, laid off, and or who quit. It is published a month behind the regular monthly jobs report. Over time, the monthly report and the JOLTS report provide very similar numbers. The following numbers are based on the latest report for December 2013, which was released in February 2014. The next JOLTS report, for January 2014, will not be released until March.
