Healthcare Industry Statistics

Healthcare kept its streak going, adding 22,000 jobs in July per BLS's national release — a step down from June's +47,000 but still the clearest source of job growth in the report. Job openings have been trending down since spring (from 1.74M in April to 1.28M in June), suggesting hiring demand is cooling even as headcount keeps climbing. Healthcare continues to carry the lowest unemployment rate of the five sectors tracked here.

Retail trade was the other notable soft spot in July's report, losing 19,000 jobs — BLS specifically called out weakness at warehouse clubs, supercenters, and other general merchandise retailers (-21,000).
