Avionté RAW: Real Analytics Weekly – Week 23
Yup – huge week for staffing! Now, about half of that is a bounce back from the short Memorial week, but even if we compare week 21 to week 23, we see a 7.5% increase in hours.
It’s so exciting to see a positive YTD for Gross Payroll! I continue to be amazed by how consistent our recovery has been, both in respect to reliability and strength. How many other industries are recovering 7% every month?!
Here are the numbers:
Going forward, I’m going to change things up a bit – emphasizing global statistics each week and then bringing in state/province numbers in the last week of the month. I know everyone is busy so I’ll keep it simple and not overwhelm with graphs!
We’ve added New Talent to the mix.
New Talent is simply defined as new talent records entered that week. It’s a good proxy for new individuals looking for work. This week was a solid week at 1.9% Week-over-Week, bringing the 4-week total to a healthy 5.6% growth. This pattern is consistent with the other major indices.
Another note – the mean pay rate went up to $16.79/hour, up from $16.53 two weeks ago (1.6%) and the highest rate since the end of May.
For those new to the Avionté RAW series, the numbers reflected are based on an aggregation of hosted Avionté data from hundreds of customers across the US and Canada.
