LawCrossing lists over 95,000 jobs across the nation
October 12, 2011
Pasadena, CA, October 12, 2011 — According to the Bureau of Labor Statistic's preliminary September employment report, analysts' predictions have been outpaced by the economy on the whole, after the addition of 103,000 jobs. But the small increase has not carried over to the legal sector. According to the report, nearly 1,300 jobs were lost last month. The BLS report shows a net loss of 1,500 jobs in 2011in the legal industry so far, after a fluctuation in the first half of the year, and has lost nearly 3,500 jobs since September 2010. In July, 4,100 legal positions were added, after which the legal industry now has suffered two consecutive months of job losses. The adjusted figures of Bureau of Labor Statistics for August show that the legal sector lost 300 jobs - the corrected figure from an earlier report of a 100-job gain in the industry. About 137,000 new jobs were added in the private sector in September, and got a high raise of 45,000 jobs collectively from the education and health services sectors. The gains haven't done much to improve the nation's employment condition keeping it steady at 9.1 percent. The overall employment gain of six-figure has been better than expected, especially after a few economists continued to raise the presence of a double-dip recession.
