nTIDE COVID Update: August 2020 Unemployment Trends

Caption

Following April's sharp rise, unemployment has declined since May 2020 for people with and without disabilities, accompanied by a marked shift in the proportion on temporary layoff/furlough to actively looking for work, as jobs are permanently lost. This shift may be a sign that economic recovery is slowing.
