Georgia Unemployment Rate

(Seasonally Adjusted)

nonfarm workers in April, this sector has grown for

eight of the last nine months. The government sector

added 1,800 jobs over the month, thus continuing an

upward trend for the fourth month in a row.

Construction shed 1,400 jobs in April, marking the third straight month the sector experienced a loss. The decline in manufacturing employment comes as jobs in durable goods shrank by 1,100 and non-durable goods lost 100 positions. Ending a three-month long growth streak, the education and health services sector contracted by 500 jobs over the month. Employment in the other services sector fell by 300 in April.
