Nevada was up 5,400 jobs in August and 42,100 over the year, and the state’s unemployment rate is still at 4.1 percent, according to the Nevada Department of Employment, Training and Rehabilitation. Governor Steve Sisolak says he’s encouraged by the positive economic indicators reflected in this month’s economic report. Nevada continues to have one of the fastest growing private sectors in the nation and unemployment in the state remains low. But he adds, we must keep working to ensure that every family in Nevada sees the benefits of the state’s growth. David Schmidt, Chief Economist for DETR, says “Overall, the economic picture around the state remains encouraging, but we continue to monitor Nevada’s labor market for signs of a turning point in light of national economic uncertainty.”
