The Commonwealth’s unemployment rate was 0.9 percentage points below its September 2022 level of 4.3%, while the national rate was up three-tenths of a percentage point over the year.
Pennsylvania’s civilian labor force – the estimated number of residents working or looking for work – was down 2,000 over the month, L&I said in its report. Resident employment rose by 2,000 from August and unemployment fell by 4,000. Pennsylvania’s total nonfarm jobs were up 8,300 over the month to a new record high of 6,171,600 in September, L&I said. This was the ninth consecutive month that jobs have set a new all-time high level. Jobs increased from August in eight of the 11 industry supersectors with the largest gain in education & health services , which rose to a record high. Over the year, total nonfarm jobs were up 148,700 with gains in all 11 supersectors.
