More great news on the jobs front! According to data from the U.S. Bureau of Workforce Statistics, Massachusetts ranks first in the nation in rate of job growth this year. In July, we added 20,700 private sector jobs, and experienced the largest over-the-month private sector job gain in 20 years.
The Patrick-Murray Administration's tireless work to create a friendly atmosphere for business investment and job creation has led to seven straight months of job growth, the only state in the nation with that distinction.
Of course, the job market is about people, not numbers. Many people are still looking for a job, and for those people, we will keep working. "As we continue to create jobs we also will continue to invest in successful workforce training initiatives that will prepare those still looking for work for the opportunities becoming available and provide employers with skilled, motivated workers," said Secretary Goldstein. We want to help.
