Labor department records 200 more jobs in Genesee County compared to last year

By Howard B. Owens

New employment data shows Genesee County adding 200 jobs from November 2012 compared to November 2013.

The 22,300 non-farm jobs in the county is 100 fewer than October's jobs number, according to data released today the NYS Department of Labor.

Wyoming County also gained 200 jobs year-over-year, climbing to 13,500. Data for neither Livingston nor Orleans counties were included in the report.

I'm wondering if they include in those numbers the temporary holiday hiring that occurs around the end of October, beginning of November each year; that only last a couple of months.
