U.S. workers reported little change in net hiring at their workplaces in October, with the Gallup Job Creation Index averaging +19 for the month, similar to the +18 recorded in September. The index has been between +17 and +20 since March, essentially hovering at the highest levels seen since mid-2008.
The Job Creation Index in October reflects 35% of U.S. adult workers saying their employers are hiring and expanding the size of their workforces, and 16% saying their employers are letting workers go and reducing the size of their workforces. Both components of the index have also been steady in recent months.
