Florida’s January Employment Figures Released


www.employflorida.com

NOTE TO EDITORS: Every March, the U.S. Department of Labor’s Bureau of Labor Statistics and the Florida
Agency for Workforce Innovation release January employment and unemployment estimates as well as revised
historical data. Today’s report is the result of that annual process, which is known as “benchmarking.” These
benchmark revisions are a standard part of the estimation process and take place this same time every year in
each state nationwide. As a result of this annual benchmarking process, the release of January and February
2011 employment data is scheduled for March 10 and March 25, respectively.

TALLAHASSEE – Florida’s seasonally adjusted unemployment rate in January 2011 is 11.9 percent,
down slightly from the December 2010 rate of 12.0 percent. This represents 1,100,000 jobless out of
a labor force of 9,276,000.

Florida’s total nonagricultural employment in January 2011 is 7,164,700, a decline of 12,900 jobs (-0.2
percent) from December 2010. Over the year, jobs are up by 8,400, an increase of 0.1 percent from
January 2010.

“While Florida’s unemployment rate is still unacceptably high, we are seeing positive signs that
employers are starting to hire,” said Agency for Workforce Innovation Director Cynthia R. Lorenzo.
“An increase in online advertisements for full-time jobs coupled with an increase in Florida’s
Consumer Confidence Index indicates that our business owners and families are increasingly
optimistic about Florida’s economic recovery. As Governor Scott moves forward with his bold pro-
business agenda, that optimism will continue.”

Consumer Confidence

Florida’s Consumer Confidence Index for February remained steady at 77 as reported by the
University of Florida’s Bureau of Economic and Business Research, unchanged from the January rate
and maintaining the significant improvement over the past three years. More Floridians now feel it is
a good time to buy big-ticket items, and Floridians’ perceptions of the U.S. economy over the next
year also improved slightly. Factors contributing to Floridians’ confidence include an upward trend in
the stock market, a steady increase in wages and several companies announcing intentions to hire
more employees.

Online Job Advertisements

The percentage of online ads for full-time jobs compiled by the Help Wanted OnLine data series from
The Conference Board increased from 67 percent of total ads in September 2010 - when the full-time
job postings began to increase - to 71 percent in February 2011. Florida had an over-the-year
increase of 27,825 job postings compared to February 2010. Major occupational groups with the
most online ads in February were sales and related occupations; healthcare practitioners and
technical occupations; office and administrative support occupations; and management occupations.

Florida’s Nonagricultural Employment by Industry (Seasonally Adjusted)


• The number of jobs in Florida is 7,164,700 in January 2011, up 8,400 jobs compared to a year ago.
January is the fourth consecutive month with positive annual job growth since the state started losing
jobs in July 2007. The industry gaining the most jobs is leisure and hospitality (+32,600 jobs, +3.6
percent).
• Other industries gaining jobs include education and health services (+13,000 jobs, +1.2 percent) and
trade, transportation, and utilities (+9,300, +0.6 percent).
• These industry job gains are partially due to increases in food services and drinking places;
ambulatory health care services; motor vehicle and parts dealers; and general merchandise stores.
• Industries losing jobs over the year include: construction (-24,000 jobs, -6.7 percent); financial
activities (-7,700 jobs, -1.6 percent); manufacturing (-6,100 jobs, -2.0 percent); information (-5,200
jobs, -3.8 percent); total government (-1,900 jobs, -0.2 percent); professional and business services
(-1,000 jobs, -0.1 percent); and other services (-800 jobs, -0.3 percent).
• These industry job losses are partially due to weakness in specialty trade contractors; insurance
carriers and related activities; miscellaneous durable goods manufacturing; telecommunications; local
government; business support services; and membership associations and organizations.

Local Area Unemployment Statistics (Not Seasonally Adjusted)


• In January 2011, Liberty and Monroe counties have the state’s lowest unemployment rate (7.6
percent each), followed by Alachua County (8.6 percent), Wakulla County (8.7 percent), Leon County
(8.8 percent), and Okaloosa County (8.9 percent). Most of the counties with the lowest
unemployment rates are those with relatively high proportions of government employment.
• Flagler County has the highest unemployment rate (16.0 percent) in Florida in January 2011, followed
by Hernando County (15.1 percent); Hendry and Marion counties (14.2 percent each); St. Lucie
County (14.1 percent); and Indian River County (14.0 percent). Flagler County, as well as most of the
other areas with the highest unemployment rates, continues to suffer long-term job losses, mainly in
construction. There were 52 Florida counties with double-digit unemployment rates in January, up
from 50 in December.

Area Nonagricultural Employment (Not Seasonally Adjusted)
• Thirteen metro areas of the 22 in the state have over-the-year job gains in January 2011. The areas
with the largest gains are Orlando-Kissimmee-Sanford (+20,400 jobs, +2.1 percent), Miami-Miami
Beach-Kendall (+6,000 jobs, +0.6 percent), and Tampa-St. Petersburg-Clearwater (+3,600 jobs, +0.3
percent).
• Of the metro areas with job declines, the areas with the largest losses are Cape Coral-Ft. Myers
(-2,900 jobs, -1.5 percent), Palm Bay-Melbourne-Titusville (-2,500 jobs, -1.3 percent), Deltona-
Daytona Beach-Pompano Beach (-1,800 jobs, -1.2 percent), and West Palm Beach-Boca Raton-
Boynton Beach (-1,800 jobs, -0.4 percent).

Note: These unemployment and job growth rates are estimates, which are primarily based on surveys created and mandated by the U.S. Bureau
of Labor Statistics in cooperation with the Florida Agency for Workforce Innovation.

The unemployment rate is derived from Florida household surveys conducted by the U.S. Census Bureau under contract with the U.S. Bureau of
Labor Statistics. The job growth rate is derived from Florida employer surveys conducted by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics.

Both estimates are revised on a monthly basis. In addition, these estimates are benchmarked (revised) annually based on actual counts from
Florida's Unemployment Compensation tax records and other data.

New procedures recently mandated by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics may result in more variable month-to-month changes. For further
