UNEMPLOYMENT & JOB GROWTH

September 29, 2021

Unemployment in Connecticut continues to decrease! The jobless rate currently sits at 7.2% and is on par with our neighboring states.

Connecticut has recovered 68.9% (201,400) of the 292,400 jobs lost in the 2020 Covid-19 lockdown.

Despite the impact COVID-19 has had on our economy, we've seen 8 straight months of growth and are in a position to continue our economic recovery.
