That and more tonight on nightly Business Report for friday august 2nd. Good evening everyone. American businesses werent hiring much in july. It was supported to show 183,000 new jobs were added. It didnt. Only 162,000 people got jobs, the slowest month since march. The numbers for may and june were revised down. Hampton pearson takes a closer look behind the numbers. The reason why the jobless rate is lower and the troubling trends in the market. Economiests say factors with employers adding just 162,000 workers to payroll and a downward division of 26,000 jobs from the government for the pref warehouse previous two months. More part time highers are being hired tied to implementing obamacare and private sector defense contractors are feeling the impact. The last four months, weve created 4. 2 part time jobs for every one fulltime job. That trend is not going in a good direction. That with the sequester and what you end up with is lower average earnings and workweek and that is not a good trend. Reporter while the pentagon has furloughed some 650,000 civilian defense workers, the private sector doesnt really have that as an option. A suburban d. C. Based company laid off more than a dozen employees in a Satellite Office when a contract was cancelled. Furloughed workers might not stick around. The type of work we do is it and high tech. There is a lot of demand for the more employees that do that type of work. Reporter even the Unemployment Rate moving to a four and a half year low of 7. 4 is due to a labor force thats not growing. Most of the hiring being done by restaurants, hotels, and bars and a lot of those jobs are part time. With americans working fewer hours, the average pay dipped.

The Unemployment Rate for teenagers that sort of 16 to 19yearolds went from a low of 12. 7 back in the height of the boom of the 1990s, 2000 to double that today. Close to 24 today. The recession hit us all. If we cant purchase anything, the retailers arent making money. Its just a domino effect for everyone. Everyone is affected by it. The kids dont make a lot of money so its up to the parents to support them. Reporter the center for American Progress estimates 10 million americans under 25 are unable to find fulltime work and estimate the cost for the group 20 billion in lost wages since the recession. Retailers catering to the group should be particularly concerned about the lost spending power. The persistence of this 20 plus Unemployment Rate among teens means it stays tempted. Reporter the retail team surveys 52 hundred teens twice a year and the most recent survey revealed parents are contributing considerably less to purchasing than the past.
