    Georgia unemployment claims drop in January: Good News for those seeking jobs

    georgiastateflag thumb GA unemployment claims drop in January The Georgia Department of Labor reported that the number of  recently unemployed workers who filed claims  for their  first time for unemployment insurance benefits has decreased 5.6 % from Dec to Jan.

    The Georgia Department of labor has also said 95,264 laid-off workers filed initial claims last month, compared with 100,896 in December. That also marked a decline of 24,875, or 20.7 percent, from 120,139 claims filed in January 2009.

    The number of jobless workers receiving  GA state unemployment benefits decreased 34,292, or 18.7 percent, from 183,829 in January 2009 to 149,537 in January 2010. Another 198,000 received federal Extended Unemployment Compensation from one of the many tiers of unemployment available, which could come to an end soon.

    “Typically, initial claims rise in January, due to layoffs following increased hiring of temporary workers for the holiday shopping season,” said State Labor Commissioner Michael Thurmond. “However, this past November and December, retailers didn’t hire as many seasonal workers as they usually do, resulting in fewer January layoffs.”

    Most of the 1st -time claims filed were in manufacturing, commerce, building , and secretarial/administrative and support services. Which shows a general US economy trends, as the recession gains hold, and the housing market continues to stagnate

    The average time unemployed Georgia workers drew Unemployment benefits in January increased to 15.8 weeks, the longest duration on record, due to the continued recession. The duration in January 2009 was 11.5 weeks.
