    Description

    In 2023, it was estimated that over 161 million Americans were in some form of employment, while 3.64 percent of the total workforce was unemployed. This was the lowest unemployment rate since the 1950s, although these figures are expected to rise in 2023 and beyond. 1980s-2010s Since the 1980s, the total United States labor force has generally risen as the population has grown, however, the annual average unemployment rate has fluctuated significantly, usually increasing in times of crisis, before falling more slowly during periods of recovery and economic stability. For example, unemployment peaked at 9.7 percent during the early 1980s recession, which was largely caused by the ripple effects of the Iranian Revolution on global oil prices and inflation. Other notable spikes came during the early 1990s; again, largely due to inflation caused by another oil shock, and during the early 2000s recession. The Great Recession then saw the U.S. unemployment rate soar to 9.6 percent, following the collapse of the U.S. housing market and its impact on the banking sector, and it was not until 2016 that unemployment returned to pre-recession levels. 2020s 2019 had marked a decade-long low in unemployment, before the economic impact of the Covid-19 pandemic saw the sharpest year-on-year increase in unemployment since the Great Depression, and the total number of workers fell by almost 10 million people. Despite the continuation of the pandemic in the years that followed, alongside the associated supply-chain issues and onset of the inflation crisis, unemployment reached just 3.67 percent in 2022 - current projections are for this figure to rise in 2023 and the years that follow, although these forecasts are subject to change if recent years are anything to go by.

    Description

    We offer a unified analysis of the growth of low-skill service occupations between 1980 and 2005 and the concurrent polarization of US employment and wages. We hypothesize that polarization stems from the interaction between consumer preferences, which favor variety over specialization, and the falling cost of automating routine, codifiable job tasks. Applying a spatial equilibrium model, we corroborate four implications of this hypothesis. Local labor markets that specialized in routine tasks differentially adopted information technology, reallocated low-skill labor into service occupations (employment polarization), experienced earnings growth at the tails of the distribution (wage polarization), and received inflows of skilled labor.

    Description

    Jobs are essential for the growth of individuals and countries alike. Achieving personal fulfillment is harder without a job, just as an economy as a whole cannot develop without the impetus of the labor market. These two perspectives unquestionably go hand in hand: from the individual perspective, finding a good job is a legitimate aspiration for anyone who wishes to support oneself and one's family; from the societal perspective, creating more and better jobs is essential to the achievement of lasting and equitable growth. Jobs for Growth rests on this dual vision. This book examines the performance of the region's labor market and, based on this analysis, proposes an integrated package of measures for both personal growth (through successful career paths) and economic growth (through more high-quality jobs and higher productivity). Over the past two decades, the bullish economic cycle has yielded undeniable gains for labor markets in Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC), among them lower unemployment, improved job creation, and a substantial increase in wages. However, the situation on the horizon -stagnation of the region's growth and weaknesses in the global macroeconomic outlook- have increased the urgency to find solutions to today's most pressing labor problems. This volume shows that, despite the still-low unemployment rates, the region may find itself trapped in a vicious cycle of poor-quality jobs -a phenomenon especially visible in the high percentage of informal jobs (which are defined in this publication as those without access to social security benefits) and in the high proportion of very short-lived jobs. As the title Jobs for Growth indicates, breaking this cycle will require comprehensive policies that boost productivity.

    Description

    The Job Openings and Labor Turnover Survey (JOLTS) program provides national estimates of rates and levels for job openings, hires, and total separations. Total separations are further broken out into quits, layoffs and discharges, and other separations. Unadjusted counts and rates of all data elements are published by supersector and select sector based on the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS). The number of unfilled jobs—used to calculate the job openings rate—is an important measure of the unmet demand for labor. With that statistic, it is possible to paint a more complete picture of the U.S. labor market than by looking solely at the unemployment rate, a measure of the excess supply of labor. Information on labor turnover is valuable in the proper analysis and interpretation of labor market developments and as a complement to the unemployment rate.

    Temporary Labor Market Outlook



    The global temporary labor market size was valued at approximately $500 billion in 2023 and is projected to reach around $780 billion by 2032, growing at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.1%. This growth is attributed to an increasing demand for flexible workforce solutions across various industry verticals and the rising need for cost-effective labor options amidst fluctuating economic conditions. The expanding gig economy and advancements in technology that facilitate remote work and temporary hiring processes are also significant contributing factors.



    One of the primary growth drivers in the temporary labor market is the increasing preference for flexible work arrangements. Modern businesses are continuously seeking ways to adapt to market demands without the long-term commitment of permanent hires. Temporary labor allows companies to scale their workforce up or down based on project needs, seasonal demands, or economic conditions. This flexibility is particularly crucial in industries with high variability in workload, such as retail and hospitality, where demand can surge during certain periods and wane during others.



    Another critical factor contributing to the growth of the temporary labor market is the rising trend of specialization within the workforce. As industries evolve, the demand for highly specialized skills has increased. Temporary labor provides a solution for companies needing niche expertise for specific projects or limited durations. For instance, in the IT and telecommunications sector, temporary professionals with specialized skills can be brought in to manage projects such as software development or network upgrades, ensuring that the company remains competitive without the need for permanent hires.



    Technological advancements have also played a pivotal role in the expansion of the temporary labor market. Platforms and online marketplaces have emerged, making it easier for employers to connect with temporary workers and for workers to find short-term employment opportunities. These technologies streamline the hiring process, reduce overhead costs, and ensure a better match between employers' needs and workers' skills. Additionally, the growth of remote work enables businesses to hire temporary labor from a global talent pool, further enhancing their operational flexibility.



    Temporary Healthcare Staffing has emerged as a critical component within the broader temporary labor market, particularly in response to the dynamic needs of the healthcare industry. The demand for temporary healthcare professionals, such as nurses, medical technicians, and administrative staff, is driven by the necessity to address staffing shortages and manage fluctuating patient care demands. This flexibility is essential for healthcare facilities to maintain high standards of care, especially during peak periods or unforeseen circumstances, such as public health emergencies. Temporary healthcare staffing not only provides a solution to immediate staffing gaps but also allows healthcare providers to access specialized skills and expertise without the long-term commitment of permanent hires.



    Regionally, North America remains a significant player in the temporary labor market, driven by a well-established gig economy and a high rate of technological adoption. The Asia Pacific region is expected to experience the fastest growth, with countries like India and China leading the way due to their large labor force and rapidly expanding industries. Europe also shows robust demand for temporary labor, especially in sectors like manufacturing and healthcare. The Middle East & Africa and Latin America, while smaller in market size, are gradually catching up as businesses in these regions recognize the benefits of flexible labor solutions.



    Employment Type Analysis



    When segmented by employment type, the temporary labor market can be broadly categorized into skilled labor, unskilled labor, and professional services. Skilled labor includes workers who have specific skills or training, such as electricians, plumbers, and machine operators. This segment is crucial for industries that require precision and expertise, like construction and manufacturing. The demand for skilled labor is robust, driven by ongoing infrastructure projects and the need for specialized trades that cannot be easily automated.



    Unskilled labor, on the other hand, comprises workers who pe

Description

In 2023, it was estimated that over 161 million Americans were in some form of employment, while 3.64 percent of the total workforce was unemployed. This was the lowest unemployment rate since the 1950s, although these figures are expected to rise in 2023 and beyond. 1980s-2010s Since the 1980s, the total United States labor force has generally risen as the population has grown, however, the annual average unemployment rate has fluctuated significantly, usually increasing in times of crisis, before falling more slowly during periods of recovery and economic stability. For example, unemployment peaked at 9.7 percent during the early 1980s recession, which was largely caused by the ripple effects of the Iranian Revolution on global oil prices and inflation. Other notable spikes came during the early 1990s; again, largely due to inflation caused by another oil shock, and during the early 2000s recession. The Great Recession then saw the U.S. unemployment rate soar to 9.6 percent, following the collapse of the U.S. housing market and its impact on the banking sector, and it was not until 2016 that unemployment returned to pre-recession levels. 2020s 2019 had marked a decade-long low in unemployment, before the economic impact of the Covid-19 pandemic saw the sharpest year-on-year increase in unemployment since the Great Depression, and the total number of workers fell by almost 10 million people. Despite the continuation of the pandemic in the years that followed, alongside the associated supply-chain issues and onset of the inflation crisis, unemployment reached just 3.67 percent in 2022 - current projections are for this figure to rise in 2023 and the years that follow, although these forecasts are subject to change if recent years are anything to go by.
