Ohio Unemployment Rate Declined in February, But Doesn't Reflect Employment Gains
Posted March 19, 2004 in Press Releases
Ohio's rate of unemployment declined to 5.9% in February, down from 6.2% a month earlier, but the decline was attributed to a reduction in the size of the state's workforce and not people finding employment, it was reported Friday by the Ohio Department of Job and Family Services (ODJFS).
