Local Jobs and Payroll in Wyoming: Weak Job Growth Continues in Second Quarter 2013
Total unemployment insurance (UI) covered payroll increased by $17.5 million (0.6%) in second quarter 2013. Employment rose by 390 jobs (0.1%) and average weekly wage increased by $4 (0.5%). In second quarter, employment grew slightly faster than its five year average (0.1% compared to -0.4%), but total wages grew at a slower pace than its five-year average (0.6% compared to 1.2%) and average weekly wage also grew at a slower pace than its five year average (0.5% compared to 1.6%). Job losses in the mining sector (including oil & gas) continued (-1,469 jobs, or -5.3%) and overall job growth weakened further.
Despite the recent growth, overall employment remains approximately 6,200 jobs (2.2%) below its second quarter 2008 level. In short, the state has yet to make up all the job losses of 2009 and 2010.
