What Was That Unemployment Number Again?
Study: 2 out of 5 working-age Californians jobless
"On this Labor Day weekend, many Californians find themselves more in need of work than a holiday.
A report released Sunday says two of five working-age Californians do not have a job, underscoring the challenges in one of the toughest job markets in decades. A new study has found that the last time employment levels among this group were this low was February 1977.
The study was done by the California Budget Project, a Sacramento-based nonprofit research group that advocates for lower- and middle-income families. The report said that California now has about the same number of jobs as it did nine years ago, when the state was home to 3.3 million fewer working-age people."
