NYS Private Sector Employment Down 13,300 Jobs in August 2025

The New York State Department of Labor (NYSDOL) continues to closely monitor developments involving the federal government shutdown.

NYSDOL is currently unable to produce these reports because the Bureau of Labor Statistics within USDOL is closed due to the federal shutdown.
