October. The over-the-month increase in jobs for

November was 12,800, with 11,100 of those from the

the sectors of Trade, Transportation, and Utilities

(+5,200); Professional and Business Services (+4,100);

and Leisure and Hospitality (+3,100). Educational

and Health Services added 2,000 jobs and

Government 1,700. Manufacturing (+800),

(+800) each gained the same number of jobs.

two sectors losing jobs in November were

Information (-300) and Construction (-5,500).

Comparing November 2009 total nonfarm

employment levels to a year ago (November

2008), employment is down 143,800. With the

exception of Education and Health Services(+1,300) sector, all other sectors are down

compared to the same time last year. This is the

first month any sector has shown over-the-year

gains since April 2009. Construction continues

to have the most losses over-the-year and over-

the-month, both in the amount and percentage

of job losses.

Under Titles VI and VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 (Title

VI & VII), and the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990

(ADA), Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, and the

Age Discrimination Act of 1975, the Department prohibits

discrimination in admissions, programs, services, activities, or

employment based on race, color, religion, sex, national origin

age, and disability. The Department must make a reasonable

accommodation to allow a person with a disability to take part

a program, service or activity. For example, this means if

necessary, the Department must provide sign language interpreters for people who are deaf, a wheelchair accessible

location, or enlarged print materials. It also means that the Department will take any other reasonable action that allow

you to take part in and understand a program or activity, including making reasonable changes to an activity. If you

believe that you will not be able to understand or take part in a program or activity because of your disability, please

us know of your disability needs in advance if at all possible. To request this document in alternative format or for

further information about this policy, contact the Department of Economic Security, Division of Developmental

Disabilities ADA Coordinator at 602 542-6825 ; TTY/TDD Services: 7-1-1.
