Economists expect nearly 3 million jobs were created in June, as companies rehired workers they let go when the economy shut down.

The monthly employment report, to be released Thursday, is surrounded by more uncertainty than normal, after economists forecast the loss of 8 million jobs in May and the economy gained 2.5 million payrolls instead.

The strength or weakness of the employment report will also be important to the debate in Congress later this month about expanded benefits for unemployed workers. Those special benefits expire at the end of the month, and they have been providing the unemployed with an additional $600 a week and covering workers not normally included in state benefits.

Another 1.38 million workers are expected to have filed initial claims for state unemployment benefits last week, down from 1.48 million the week earlier. Economists emphasize the June jobs report will be backward looking, as it reflects data through mid-June and not the latter part of the month when the resurgence of the virus led to some shutdowns of activity and delayed reopenings in several states.

They have hiring freezes and are still laying ppl off. It’s good to keep news positive. But, majority of the companies have reduced overhead (people). The positive numbers are those furloughed during lockdown. Also, the world is discussing inequality. So, all professionals will not be called back fairly. This is fact.
