Job openings increased for a third consecutive month in July, handily surpassing economic forecasts for the month.​

​

The number of jobs available to U.S. workers rose to 6.618 million during the month, according to the Labor Department’s Job Openings and Labor Turnover Survey, or JOLTS, released Wednesday.​

​

That not only beat expectations for 5.95 million openings, it exceeded the upper range of estimates by economists survey by Econoday.​

​

June’s figure was revised up to just over 6 million from 5.889 million.​

​

Job openings represent positions available to new workers. Positions offered only internally or workers called back from layoffs are not counted in the figure.​

​

The quits rate rose to 2.1 percent while the layoffs and discharges rate decreased to 1.2 percent. Both are positive developments. Economists believe a rising quits rate typically indicates workers are becoming more confident they can find better jobs.​

How many are full time and pay a living wage?

So we have 12 million unemployed and 6 million job offerings unfulfilled. Half of those unemployed in t heory could be employed, but job-worker match ups are never so clean.

But most of the hiring going on now is primary labor positions, and the roll out from that to secondary and tertiary jobs will be largely done by end of October.

MAGA ! ! ! ! !
