Nevada Employment Drops (a Bit More)


The number of people employed in Nevada fell 5,963 or .5% in July from the previous month according to Nevada's Department of Employee Training and Rehabilitation Research and Analysis Bureau--the second declining month since May 2011. Among Nevada industry sectors, 1,300 jobs were lost in professional and business services alone. The number of Nevadans employed in July was 4,620 above January 2011's recent low.



Leisure and Hospitality, the largest sector in Nevada's economy, neither hired nor fired in July 2011 as compared to the previous month. Recent increases in the Silver State's visitor volume has been supportive of the hotel and casino industry.
