Monthly employment report
The monthly employment report is a comprehensive report on Washington’s job market. We report the unemployment rate statewide and for the nation, the number of people in Washington’s workforce and the number of jobs by industry. Open the August 2024 monthly employment report (State and Seattle Metropolitan Division only). Report charts and tables are also available. For county-level data, see the map below for county unemployment rates. Alternate measures of labor underutilization (U6) are discussed here.
More local information can be found in the County labor force and unemployment data and County payroll data pages.
For more charts and graphs at the national level, see the BLS Employment Situation report.
The Labor force by county snapshot can be accessed here.
