September Job Growth Is Only One-Third of Average Job Growth for an Economic Recovery Period: Growth Falls Well Behind What President's Economic Advisers Predicted and Characterized as Average
Overview The number of jobs grew by 96,000 in September, 2004. This is one-third the job growth of 300,000 per month that would have been achieved if job growth had occurred at the rate that is average for a recovery, according to the definition of average used by the chairman of the President's Council of Economic Advisers. This continues a pattern predominant during the past year of job growth; with few exceptions, this growth has lagged behind - and usually well behind - the pace of job growth typically associated with a recovery period.
