New York Times: “It’s very clear our economy is still in trouble”

"The American economic recovery showed new signs of stalling on Friday as government data underscored the pandemic’s brutal damage to the job market.

U.S. employers added 49,000 jobs in January, the Labor Department said, dashing hopes that the new year would bring immediate relief. The private sector added just 6,000 jobs, barely enough to register against the millions of positions lost during the pandemic.

The weak showing was tallied amid a fresh effort in Washington to provide a big infusion of aid to foster a recovery and the data will almost certainly bolster the Democrats’ argument for a robust stimulus package."

World Economic Forum: "The Future of Jobs Report 2020"

Given the economy currently in turmoil due to the pandemic and the Franklin School Dept soon to release their "Portrait of a Graduate", this report is timely and insightful.

"The Future of Jobs Report provides the timely insights needed to orient labour markets and workers towards opportunity today and in the future of work. Now in its third edition, the report maps the jobs and skills of the future, tracking the pace of change and direction of travel. This year we find that while technology-driven job creation is still expected to outpace job destruction over the next five years, the economic contraction is reducing the rate of growth in the jobs of tomorrow. There is a renewed urgency to take proactive measures to ease the transition of workers into more sustainable job opportunities. There is room for measured optimism in the data, but supporting workers will require global, regional and national public-private collaboration at an unprecedented scale and speed."

This opportunity only comes once a decade, so 2020 will be the time to make sure your community is counted.

We need your help! Please get your community prepared by taking the following steps:

In the News: 2020 Census takers being recruited

From the Milford Daily News, articles of interest for Franklin:
"Every 10 years, each resident in the United States is counted by the Census Bureau to determine how many seats each state has in the U.S. House of Representatives and how federal funds will be spent on local communities. Next week in Milford, the Census is seeking U.S. citizens to help count, offering a pay rate above Massachusetts’ minimum wage.

On Tuesday, the Bureau will recruit 2020 census-takers during a job fair at the Milford Town Library’s Quarry Room from 7-8:30 p.m. The minimum pay rate for the temporary position in Worcester County is $18 per hour, according to the Census, which is $6 higher than the state’s $12 minimum wage. Census takers also receive reimbursement for work-related mileage and expenses."
