LOS ANGELES AREA JOB COUNT IN JUNE 2008 DOWN 48,900 OVER THE YEAR
Total nonfarm employment for the Los Angeles-Long Beach-Santa Ana Metropolitan Statistical Area1 stood at 5,610,500 in June 2008, down 48,900, or 0.9 percent, over the year, the Bureau of Labor Statistics of the U.S. Department of Labor reported today. The rate of job loss in the Los Angeles metropolitan area was greater than the national decrease in jobs of 0.1 percent from June 2007 to June 2008. (See table 1.) Richard J. Holden, the Bureau's regional commissioner in San Francisco, noted that the June decline was the ninth consecutive over-the-year reduction in local employment. (See chart A. All data in this release are not seasonally adjusted; accordingly, over-the-year analysis is used throughout.)
Chart A. Total nonfarm employment, over-the-year net change in the Los Angeles-Long Beach-Santa Ana metropolitan area and its components, June 2001-June 2008
1 The Los Angeles-Long Beach-Santa Ana, California Metropolitan Statistical Area is comprised of Los Angeles and Orange counties.
The Los Angeles metropolitan area is comprised of two metropolitan divisions--separately identifiable employment centers within the larger metropolitan area. The Los Angeles-Long Beach-Glendale Metropolitan Division, which comprised 73 percent of the Los Angeles area workforce, accounted for 48.1 percent of the area's employment decline with the loss of 23,500 jobs from June a year ago. The Santa Ana-Anaheim-Irvine Metropolitan Division, making up 27 percent of the Los Angeles area workforce, accounted for 51.9 percent of the employment decline in the area with the loss of 25,400 jobs.
Industry Employment
The financial activities supersector experienced the largest employment decline in the Los Angeles metropolitan area, dropping 20,900 jobs, or 5.6 percent, over the year. The majority of losses in financial activities jobs were concentrated in the Santa Ana-Anaheim-Irvine division which accounted for 12,800 jobs lost, a 10-percent decline since June last year. The Los-Angeles-Long Beach-Glendale division shed 8,100 financial jobs or 3.3 percent over the year. Nationally, employment in the financial activities supersector decreased at a slower pace, declining 1.3 percent. (See table 1.)
Chart B. Over-the-year percent change in employment by industry supersector, United States and the Los Angeles metropolitan area, June 2008
Three other industries in the Los Angeles area had job losses exceeding 10,000 jobs. The construction supersector lost 17,700 jobs since June 2007, a 6.7 percent decrease; nationally, construction jobs also declined rather steeply by 6.1 percent. The Los Angeles-Long Beach-Glendale division experienced the largest loss in construction jobs, down 11,600 over the year.
The manufacturing supersector lost 12,700 over the year or 2 percent, which was less than the national decline of 2.6 percent. The information supersector in the Los Angeles area shed 11,900 jobs, or 4.9 percent, compared to a 1.1 percent drop nationwide. Nearly 90 percent of the area's information jobs (10,200) were lost in the Los Angeles-Long Beach-Glendale division.
Four industries in the Los Angeles area experienced job gains, with two adding 10,000 or more jobs. The educational and health supersector added 17,100 jobs, growing at a 2.7-percent pace and matching the national rate since June 2007. Locally, the government supersector added 10,000 jobs since June a year ago, expanding 1.3 percent, similar to the 1.2-percent rate of growth nationwide.
Employment in the 12 Largest Areas
The Los Angeles-Long Beach-Santa Ana area was one of the nation's 12 largest metropolitan statistical areas in June 2008. Seven of these 12 areas experienced over-the-year job growth while nationwide the number of jobs slipped 0.1 percent. Houston-Sugar Land-Baytown registered the fastest rate of gain, up 2.1 percent from June 2007, closely followed by Dallas-Fort Worth-Arlington, up 2.0 percent. The other five areas experiencing growth during the period were: Boston-Cambridge-Quincy and Washington-Arlington-Alexandria (both at 0.8 percent), Atlanta-Sandy Springs-Marietta (0.7 percent), New York-Northern New Jersey-Long Island (0.2 percent), and Philadelphia-Camden-Wilmington (0.1 percent). Another area, Chicago-Naperville-Joliet, registered no growth. (See chart C and table 2.)
Employment declined in the four remaining areas: San Francisco-Oakland-Fremont (-0.3 percent), Miami-Fort Lauderdale-Pompano Beach (-0.7 percent), Los Angeles-Long Beach-Santa Ana (-0.9 percent), and Detroit-Warren-Livonia (-1.7 percent).
Dallas, the area with the second fastest growth rate in June 2008, added the largest number of jobs over the year, 57,800. Houston ranked second with the addition of 54,100 jobs. The largest declines in employment occurred in Los Angeles (-48,900) and Detroit (-34,800).
Chart C. Over-the-year percent change in employment, United States and 12 largest metropolitan areas, June 2008
This release presents nonfarm payroll employment estimates from the Current Employment Statistics (CES) program. The CES survey is a Federal-State cooperative endeavor in which State workforce agencies prepare the data using concepts, definitions, and technical procedures prescribed by the Bureau of Labor Statistics.
Definitions. Employment data refer to persons on establishment payrolls who receive pay for any part of the pay period which includes the 12th of the month. Persons are counted at their places of work rather than at their place of residence; those appearing on more than one payroll are counted on each payroll. Industries are classified on the basis of their principal activity in accordance with the 2002 version of the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS).
Method of estimation. The employment data are estimated using a weighted "link relative" technique in which a ratio (link relative) of current-month employment to that of the previous month is computed from a sample of establishments reporting for both months. The estimates of employment for the current month are obtained by multiplying the estimates for the previous month by these ratios. Small-domain models are used as the official estimators for approximately 10 percent of CES published series which have insufficient sample for direct sample-based estimates.
Annual revisions. Employment estimates are adjusted annually to a complete count of jobs, called benchmarks, derived principally from tax reports which are submitted by employers who are covered under state unemployment insurance (UI) laws. The benchmark information is used to adjust the monthly estimates between the new benchmark and the preceding one and also to establish the level of employment for the new benchmark month. Thus, the benchmarking process establishes the level of employment, and the sample is used to measure the month-to-month changes in the level for the subsequent months.
Reliability of the Estimates
The estimates presented in this release are based on sample survey data and administrative data and thus are subject to sampling and other types of errors. Sampling error is a measure of sampling variabilityvariation that occurs by chance because a sample rather than the entire population is surveyed. Survey data are also subject to nonsampling errors, such as those which can be introduced into the data collection and processing operations. Estimates not directly derived from sample surveys are subject to additional errors resulting from the special estimation processes used. The sums of individual items may not always equal the totals shown in the same tables because of rounding.
Employment estimates. Measures of sampling error for state CES data at the supersector level are available on the BLS Web site at www.bls.gov/sae/790stderr.htm. Information on recent benchmark revisions for states is available at www.bls.gov/sae.
Area definitions. The substate area data published in this release reflect the standards and definitions established by the U.S. Office of Management and Budget, dated December 5, 2005. A detailed list of the geographic definitions is published annually in the May issue of Employment and Earnings.
The Los Angeles-Long Beach-Santa Ana, Calif. Metropolitan Statistical Area (MSA) includes Los Angeles and Orange Counties in California.
The Los Angeles-Long Beach-Glendale, Calif. Metropolitan Division (MD) includes Los Angeles County.
The Santa Ana-Anaheim-Irvine, Calif. Metropolitan Division (MD) includes Orange County.
