2013 0705 Jobs Report
While the addition of 195,000 US jobs in June was greeted as a sign of growing strength in the US economy, the nation still has 2.2 million fewer jobs than when the recession began. It will take another 10 months at the current pace of job creation to reach the pre-crisis number of jobs. And, as these charts show, a good deal of new job creation has been in part-time positions. Part time employment spiked after 2008 and has come down only slightly from its post-recession peak. In the latest jobs report, part-time jobs rose again.
