The number of Americans working multiple jobs to make ends meet stayed steady in 2007, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics says.

Nationally, 5.2 percent of American workers held at least one additional job last year, the same percentage as in 2006, the Honolulu Star-Bulletin reported Saturday.

While 26 states and the District of Columbia experienced decreases in their multiple job-holding rates, 20 states recorded increases. Four states reported no change.

Overall, 28 states had higher multiple job-holding rates than the national average, the newspaper reported.

South Dakota had the highest percentage of workers holding multiple jobs at 10.2 percent, followed by Nebraska, Vermont, Kansas, Iowa, North Dakota and Minnesota.</p><p>Author: <a href="http://www.livevideo.com/CLevelCrossing">CLevelCrossing</a><br/>Keywords: <a href="http://www.livevideo.com/media/tag/employmentcrossing-com.aspx">EmploymentCrossing.com</a> <a href="http://www.livevideo.com/media/tag/videos.aspx">videos</a> <a href="http://www.livevideo.com/media/tag/jobs.aspx">jobs</a> <a href="http://www.livevideo.com/media/tag/u-s-bureau-of-labor-statistic.aspx">U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics</a> <a href="http://www.livevideo.com/media/tag/additional-job.aspx">additional job</a> <a href="http://www.livevideo.com/media/tag/national.aspx">national</a> <a href="http://www.livevideo.com/media/tag/unemployment.aspx">unemployment</a> <a href="http://www.livevideo.com/media/tag/income.aspx">income</a> <a href="http://www.livevideo.com/media/tag/budget.aspx">budget</a> <a href="http://www.livevideo.com/media/tag/economy.aspx">economy</a> <a href="http://www.livevideo.com/media/tag/south-dakota.aspx">South Dakota</a> <a href="http://www.livevideo.com/media/tag/nebraska.aspx">Nebraska</a> <a href="http://www.livevideo.com/media/tag/vermont.aspx">Vermont</a> <a href="http://www.livevideo.com/media/tag/kansas.aspx">Kansas</a> <a href="http://www.livevideo.com/media/tag/iowa.aspx">Iowa</a> <a href="http://www.livevideo.com/media/tag/north-dakota-and-minnesota.aspx">North Dakota and Minnesota</a> <br/>Added: Mon, 13 Oct 2008 23:46:09 GMT</p>]]>

Construction lost 35,000 jobs in September, according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics.

“The drop in construction employment accelerated in September and will get much worse unless credit markets reopen,” said Ken Simonson, chief economist for the Washington, D.C.-based Associated General Contractors of America, told the South Florida Business Journal.

The U.S. Labor Department reported that U.S. weekly jobless claims remained at their highest level in seven years last week.

The employment downturn comes on the heels of a report from the Census Bureau that private, nonresidential construction spending fell by nearly one percent in July and August.

State and local construction spending was up, but may change direction as more states announce budget shortfalls.

Highways and schools – 60 percent of public construction spending – are thought to be in jeopardy because of drops in fuel and property tax receipts.

Simonson said all types of construction shed workers in September, following a brief spurt in nonresidential hiring in August. He called it an ominous sign and said the October labor report – due out just after Election Day – could be even uglier</p><p>Author: <a href="http://www.livevideo.com/CLevelCrossing">CLevelCrossing</a><br/>Keywords: <a href="http://www.livevideo.com/media/tag/employmentcrossing-com.aspx">EmploymentCrossing.com</a> <a href="http://www.livevideo.com/media/tag/videos.aspx">videos</a> <a href="http://www.livevideo.com/media/tag/u-s-labor-department.aspx">U.S.Labor Department</a> <a href="http://www.livevideo.com/media/tag/u-s-bureau-of-labor-statistic.aspx">U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics Census Bureau</a> <a href="http://www.livevideo.com/media/tag/associated-general-contractors.aspx">Associated General Contractors of America Construction</a> <a href="http://www.livevideo.com/media/tag/job-loss.aspx">Job loss</a> <a href="http://www.livevideo.com/media/tag/jobs.aspx">jobs</a> <a href="http://www.livevideo.com/media/tag/fuel.aspx">fuel</a> <a href="http://www.livevideo.com/media/tag/property-tax.aspx">property tax</a> <a href="http://www.livevideo.com/media/tag/election-day.aspx">election day</a> <a href="http://www.livevideo.com/media/tag/contractor.aspx">contractor</a> <a href="http://www.livevideo.com/media/tag/jobless.aspx">jobless</a> <a href="http://www.livevideo.com/media/tag/budget.aspx">budget</a> <br/>Added: Thu, 09 Oct 2008 01:55:42 GMT</p>]]>

Illinois Attorney General Lisa Madigan has laid off 19 employees in the face of budget cuts ordered by the Governor.  The layoffs came last week and early this week.  A dozen lawyers and three others were let go in Chicago.   Springfield lost one non- lawyer and 3 attorneys. 

Madigan’s office is also planning on implementing unpaid days off on all employees, though the details have not been worked out.  There will be little to no job offers coming from the Attorney Generals office and time for a hiring freeze is quickly approaching.  

By year’s end, 325 employees are expected to be laid off from the Department of Children and Family Services, the Department of Health Services, the Department of Natural Resources and the Illinois Historic Preservation Agency. Last month, the state Treasurer let six employees go.</p><p>Author: <a href="http://www.livevideo.com/CLevelCrossing">CLevelCrossing</a><br/>Keywords: <a href="http://www.livevideo.com/media/tag/illinois-attorney-general-lisa.aspx">Illinois Attorney General Lisa Madigan</a> <a href="http://www.livevideo.com/media/tag/laid-off-lawyers.aspx">laid off lawyers</a> <a href="http://www.livevideo.com/media/tag/department-of-children-and-fam.aspx">Department of Children and Family Services</a> <a href="http://www.livevideo.com/media/tag/department-of-health-services.aspx">Department of Health Services</a> <a href="http://www.livevideo.com/media/tag/department-of-natural-resource.aspx">Department of Natural Resources</a> <a href="http://www.livevideo.com/media/tag/illinois-historic-preservation.aspx">Illinois Historic Preservation Agency</a> <br/>Added: Sat, 20 Sep 2008 00:45:49 GMT</p><p><span style="color:blue;font-size:9px;font-family:Verdana">Video codes to display this video on your website!</span><br/><div><textarea style="width:300px; height:50px;"><div><embed src="http://www.livevideo.com/flvplayer/embed/09C17EB37AFD40FEB869760057496D0F" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" quality="high" WIDTH="445" HEIGHT="369" wmode="transparent"></embed><br/><a href="http://www.livevideo.com">http://www.livevideo.com</a></div></textarea></div>]]>

According to the Office of National Statistics, 1.72 million people are out of work in the UK.  From May to July the number of people out of work increased by 81,000 people.    This leaves the UK unemployment rate at 5.5%.  
In August, 904,900 people claimed jobseekers allowance.   
The Trades Union Congress (TUC) warned that by the end of 2009 the number of people unemployed could be significantly higher.   They also forecasted that the number of people being out of work for at least 12 months at a time could increase to about 700,000 by the end of 2009, bringing the total unemployment rate over two million.</p><p>Author: <a href="http://www.livevideo.com/CLevelCrossing">CLevelCrossing</a><br/>Keywords: <a href="http://www.livevideo.com/media/tag/http-www-employmentcrossing-.aspx">http://www.EmploymentCrossing.com</a> <a href="http://www.livevideo.com/media/tag/videos.aspx">videos</a> <a href="http://www.livevideo.com/media/tag/office-of-national-statistics.aspx">office of national statistics</a> <a href="http://www.livevideo.com/media/tag/1-72-million-people-unemployed.aspx">1.72 million people unemployed</a> <a href="http://www.livevideo.com/media/tag/uk.aspx">UK</a> <a href="http://www.livevideo.com/media/tag/unemployment-rate.aspx">unemployment rate</a> <a href="http://www.livevideo.com/media/tag/jobseekers-allowance.aspx">jobseekers allowance</a> <a href="http://www.livevideo.com/media/tag/trade-union-congress.aspx">Trade Union Congress</a> <a href="http://www.livevideo.com/media/tag/tuc.aspx">TUC</a> <br/>Added: Thu, 18 Sep 2008 01:20:38 GMT</p>]]>

Oregon’s Occupational Safety and Health Division plans to offer free on-site safety consultations to the state’s restaurateurs, under an agreement struck with the Oregon Restaurant Association, an industry lobby. Restaurants will not be fined or sanctioned for any violations discovered.
The state agency will also produce workplace safety and training materials specifically for the foodservice business. 
Oregon’s workplace regulatory agency recently struck a similar deal with the construction industry.
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has called for more quote –“collaboration”-unquote between watchdog groups and the industries they serve. The Bush administration believes business regulations should be voluntary rather than mandatory.

In 2007, Oregon’s OSHD made 229 restaurant inspections, found 508 violations of health and safety rules, and issued fines of more than $43,000.</p><p>Author: <a href="http://www.livevideo.com/CLevelCrossing">CLevelCrossing</a><br/>Keywords: <a href="http://www.livevideo.com/media/tag/oregon.aspx">Oregon</a> <a href="http://www.livevideo.com/media/tag/oregon-s-occupational-safety.aspx">Oregon’s Occupational Safety</a> <a href="http://www.livevideo.com/media/tag/oregon-restaurant-associationt.aspx">Oregon Restaurant AssociationThe U.S. Food and Drug Administration</a> <a href="http://www.livevideo.com/media/tag/www-employmentcrossing-com.aspx">www.EmploymentCrossing.com</a> <a href="http://www.livevideo.com/media/tag/video.aspx">video</a> <br/>Added: Sat, 13 Sep 2008 22:54:31 GMT</p><p><span style="color:blue;font-size:9px;font-family:Verdana">Video codes to display this video on your website!</span><br/><div><textarea style="width:300px; height:50px;"><div><embed src="http://www.livevideo.com/flvplayer/embed/A769A9CAD7384AA7A7228DE30781DE9C" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" quality="high" WIDTH="445" HEIGHT="369" wmode="transparent"></embed><br/><a href="http://www.livevideo.com">http://www.livevideo.com</a></div></textarea></div>]]>
