From December 2023 to March 2024, gross job gains from opening and expanding private-sector establishments in Texas were 638,289, while gross job losses from closing and contracting private-sector establishments were 610,710, 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 gain of 27,579 jobs in the private sector during the first quarter of 2024. During the previous quarter, gross job gains exceeded gross job losses by 67,569. (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 the Business Employment Dynamics Technical Note.)
Gross job gainsIn the first quarter of 2024, gross job gains represented 5.4 percent of private-sector employment in Texas; nationally, gross job gains accounted for 5.7 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 Texas, gross job gains at expanding establishments totaled 507,931 in the first quarter of 2024, a decrease of 36,947 jobs compared to the previous quarter. (See table 1.) Opening establishments accounted for 130,358 jobs gained in the first quarter of 2024, a decrease of 2,203 jobs from the previous quarter.
Gross job lossesIn the first quarter of 2024, gross job losses represented 5.1 percent of private-sector employment in Texas; nationally, gross job losses accounted for 5.4 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 Texas, contracting establishments lost 499,721 jobs in the first quarter of 2024, an increase of 16,154 jobs from the prior quarter. Closing establishments lost 110,989 jobs, a decrease of 15,314 jobs from the previous quarter.
IndustriesGross job gains exceeded gross job losses in 8 of the 11 industry sectors in Texas in the first quarter of 2024. Professional and business services had the largest over-the-quarter net job increase, with a gain of 9,045 jobs. This was the result of 132,537 gross job gains and 123,492 gross job losses. The construction industry had a net gain of 7,693 jobs, and the education and health services industry had a net gain of 6,637 jobs. Transportation and warehousing showed a net loss of 15,101 jobs, the largest loss of any sector in the state.
