Supplemental Notes
JOLTS
The Job Openings and Labor Turnover Survey (JOLTS), published monthly by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), provides detailed insights into labor market dynamics across industries and regions. It captures key measures such as job openings, hires, quits, layoffs, and other separations. By tracking the flow of workers in and out of jobs, JOLTS offers a more complete picture of labor demand and workforce mobility than the unemployment rate alone. Economists, policymakers, and business leaders use the report to assess labor market tightness, employee confidence, and potential wage pressures. A high number of job openings alongside a high quits rate often signals a strong labor market where workers are confident in finding new employment.
