Utah Jobs - A Booming Economy in Need of Workers!

THE UTAH JOB MARKET

Utah is the heart of America's Intermountain West. Its topography ranges from alpine mountains to broad valleys to sagebrush rangeland to slickrock gulches, all interspersed with streams, rivers, lakes, and reservoirs. The beehive, signifying industry, is the State symbol; and Utah, one of the most industrially diversified states, fits its symbol and nickname well.

Utah's major newspapers report stronger than expected job growth - keeping the state's economy strong. Our state continually ranks high for lifestyle and business environment.

Utah's stellar rate of job creation, which should have slowed down by now, crept up again in July. Utah created 56,800 jobs in the year that ended in July, for an employment growth rate of 4.7 percent, up from 4.5 percent for the year that ended in June, the Utah Department of Workforce Services reported.

"Utah continues to have a really, really strong economy," said Mark Knold, chief economist for Workforce Services. "What impresses me is that our job growth is staying so high. Utah just doesn't seem vulnerable to the things that are affecting other parts of the country right now." It may sound like a broken record, but Utah's job growth nonetheless is topping the charts.
