From March 2023 to June 2023, gross job losses from closing and contracting private-sector establishments in Arkansas were 65,458, while gross job gains from opening and expanding private-sector establishments were 63,471, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics reported today. Assistant Commissioner for Regional Operations Michael Hirniak noted that the difference between the number of gross job gains and the number of gross job losses yielded a net employment loss of 1,987 jobs in the private sector during the second quarter of 2023. During the previous quarter, gross job gains exceeded gross job losses by 7,285. (See chart 1.)
The change in the number of jobs over time is the net result of increases and decreases in employment that occur at all private businesses in the economy. Business Employment Dynamics (BED) statistics track these changes in employment at private-sector establishments from the third month of one quarter to the third month of the next. The difference between the number of gross job gains and the number of gross job losses is the net change in employment. (See Technical Note.)
Gross job gainsIn the second quarter of 2023, gross job gains represented 5.8 percent of private-sector employment in Arkansas; nationally, gross job gains accounted for 6.2 percent of private-sector employment. (See chart 2.) Gross job gains are the sum of increases in employment due to expansions at existing establishments and the addition of new jobs at opening establishments. In Arkansas, gross job gains at expanding establishments totaled 51,246 in the second quarter of 2023, an increase of 2,133 jobs compared to the previous quarter. (See table 1.) Opening establishments accounted for 12,225 jobs gained in the second quarter of 2023, a decrease of 195 jobs from the previous quarter.
Gross job lossesIn the second quarter of 2023, gross job losses represented 6.0 percent of private-sector employment in Arkansas; nationally, gross job losses accounted for 5.9 percent of private-sector employment. (See chart 3.) Gross job losses are the result of contractions in employment at existing establishments and the loss of jobs at closing establishments. In Arkansas, contracting establishments lost 54,147 jobs in the second quarter of 2023, an increase of 9,761 jobs from the prior quarter. Closing establishments lost 11,311 jobs, an increase of 1,449 jobs from the previous quarter.
IndustriesGross job losses exceeded gross job gains in 6 of the 10 industry sectors in Arkansas in the second quarter of 2023. Transportation and warehousing had the largest over-the-quarter net job decrease, with a loss of 2,003 jobs. This was the result of 3,210 gross job gains and 5,213 gross job losses. The professional and business services industry had a net loss of 1,588 jobs, and leisure and hospital had a net loss of 1,202 jobs. Education and health services showed a net gain of 2,120 jobs, the largest gain of any sector in the state. Arkansas’ construction industry sector had a net gain of 1,332 jobs.
