Yazoo City companies that are hiring despite the COVID-19 pandemic

(YAZOO CITY, MS.) Companies in Yazoo City are opening positions as the job market improves.

Nonfarm payrolls rose by 916,000 in March, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, and the unemployment rate fell 0.2% percentage points to 6.0%. The figures are the most recent available from the federal agency.

The change amounted to a sharp uptick in hiring in the economy over the previous month, more than doubling the 379,000 jobs added in February. That brought the total number of unemployed people in the country down to 9.7 million

But while the increase showed improvement in the economy, unemployment nationwide in March was still up 2.5 percentage points from its level in February 2020, showing the ongoing effect of the COVID-19 pandemic on the U.S. economy.

The total number of unemployed people in March was likewise close to double its pre-pandemic level.

Our mission is to provide you with local resources that can help you adapt to the circumstances in your area. That includes providing up-to-date information on the impact of COVID-19 on the economy and job prospects.
