construction_160x120Coinciding with the crash of the housing market 3-4 years ago, the total number of jobs lost in the construction industry has been felt the hardest in Arizona, Nevada, and Florida.

The Bureau of Labor Statistics has published the following construction job declines for the period of the recession: Arizona 53.2%, Nevada 52.3%, and Florida at 48.6%.

Across the board, no state has had an increase in the number of construction jobs, and 20% have lost at least a third.

By total volume, California leads the pack with 363,600 fewer construction jobs as compared to their peak.

North Dakota and Louisiana have suffered the smallest declines, with 6.1% and 8.2% corresponding losses.

Testimonial of the Week

What I liked about the service is that it had such a comprehensive collection of jobs! I was using a number of sites previously and this took up so much time, but in joining EmploymentCrossing, I was able to stop going from site to site and was able to find everything I needed on EmploymentCrossing.

Only TravelingCrossing consolidates every job it can find in the domain and puts all of the job listings it locates in one place.

  • We have more jobs than any other job board.
  • We list jobs you will not find elsewhere that are hidden in small regional publications and employer websites
  • We collect jobs from more than 4,429,376 websites and post them on our site.
  • We are private, and therefore far fewer people are applying for the jobs on our site than are applying for those on public job boards.
The number of jobs listed on EmploymentCrossing is great. I appreciate the efforts that are taken to ensure the accuracy and validity of all jobs.
