December 2024 Unemployment and Jobs Press Release
January 28, 2025 |
|
"The preliminary data for 2024 has now been released by the Department of Labor. Over the next two months, staff will refine this data through a federal review process, with updated historical figures expected in March and April. Throughout 2024, data findings indicate significant trends, including an expanding labor force and an increase in jobs within Vermont’s economy.
While the overall statewide trajectory has been positive, these gains appear to be concentrated in larger economic areas of the state. Additionally, other barriers to employment, such as available housing, have slowed the growth of Vermont’s labor force. The Department remains committed to improving educational and employment outcomes statewide, including Vermont’s more rural communities.
This February is Career & Technical Education (CTE) Month, highlighting the importance of CTE programs in providing critical skills and pathways to meaningful employment with Vermont businesses who are actively hiring. To learn more about CTE or Registered Apprenticeships, visit https://labor.vermont.gov or contact one of our employment specialists at 802-828-4394." |
