The total number of jobs is now effectively unchanged from a year ago, and the unemployment rate fell slightly as some unemployed individuals left the labor market. Private sector employment fell by 6,000 jobs over the month, led by statistically significant declines in the Construction and Accommodation &amp; Food Services industries,\u201d said David Schmidt, Chief Economist. \u201cHowever, we have not experienced a surge in new claims for unemployment benefits from workers in those industries and data on hours worked and hourly wages continue to remain steady, pointing to an ongoing demand for workers.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>To see additional labor market data view the department\u2019s\u00a0employment\u00a0and\u00a0unemployment\u00a0dashboards located at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nevadaworkforce.com\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">nevadaworkforce.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>See the full report in the PDF below.<\/p>\n<p>The Research and Analysis Bureau is Nevada\u2019s premier source for labor market information.
