RELEASE: New Study: Post-Great-Recession, California’s Labor Market is Slowly Recovering, Study Finds
RELEASE: One in three U.S. manufacturing workers is on public aid, study shows
As we approach the seventh official year of recovery, several sectors of California’s labor market still have not regained the jobs lost during the Great Recession according to research by the Center on Wage and Employment Dynamics at UC Berkeley.
Just over a third of non-supervisory manufacturing production workers in the United States and half of the nation’s manufacturing workers hired through temporary agencies rely on at least one public assistance program to support themselves or their families, according to research by the University of California, Berkeley’s Center for Labor Research and Education.
