Iowa’s unemployment rate remained where it’s been the last four months again in September at three-point-two percent. Iowa Workforce Development director Beth Townsend says the labor market continues to move at an even pace.
Townsend says. Townsend says there was some good movement in a couple of key areas.
There has been a lot of attention at the state universities to increase the number of nurses in the state. Townsend says that’s probably part of the increase, but says the healthcare increases were across the board.
Townsend says she doesn’t mind the steady course compared to the alternative.
Townsend says. Townsend says unemployment claims remain historically low and there are still thousands of open jobs in Iowa.
