Minnesota Employers Continue to Add Jobs

Minnesota employers added nearly 6,000 new jobs in August, continuing a steady upward trend in the state’s labor market. DEED Commissioner Matt Varilek says Minnesota’s job growth is outpacing the national average.

The state’s unemployment rate ticked up slightly, rising one-tenth of a percentage point to 3.6%, which is still well below the national rate of 4.3%.
