Unemployment increased at the beginning of this year as employers continued to rein in recruitment. The latest official labour market estimates from the ONS showed the unemployment rate increased to 4.2% from December 2023 to February 2024 (a six-month high and a slight increase from the previous three-month period (4.0%)). Those unemployed for over six and up to 12 months increased in the latest quarter, following recent declines, and those unemployed for over 12 months continued to increase. Meanwhile, employers were hesitant to recruit, with the estimated number of vacancies posted in January to March 2024 falling to 916,000, around 13,000 fewer than the previous quarter and the 21st consecutive quarterly fall in vacancies. #statistics #unemployment #recruitment

The August employment report reinforces the view that the U.S. labor market is slowing but not breaking. The labor market has cooled considerably during the past year — a wholly expected development as the demand and supply of workers get back into better balance after the seismic shock of the Covid-19 pandemic — however, concerns have increased in recent months that job growth isn’t just slowing, but deteriorating.
