bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-04-17/there-s-at-least-one-job-seeker-per-opening-in-five-us-states
Quick Glance: Outlook on Labor Markets in California, New Jersey, and Connecticut
- There’s now at least one unemployed job seeker for every vacancy in five US states, indicating a loosening of the labor market in parts of the country.
- Connecticut joined California, Nevada, New Jersey, and Washington in the list of states where the ratio of jobless people per opening is one or more. Meanwhile, Arizona and New York are nearing parity with a rate of 0.9, according to February data from the US Bureau of Labor Statistics.
- The ratio of one or more in some states suggests a dynamic in the labor market being monitored by Federal Reserve officials for potential interest rate adjustments. This trend aligns with a gradual cooling and lower inflation.
- Nationally, the job market remains challenging, with job openings outnumbering unemployed individuals. The ongoing rate of 0.7 over 10 months implies the potential for every unemployed worker to find at least one available position.

mercurynews.com/2024/04/23/tesla-layoffs-draw-suit-claiming-not-enough-warning-for-workers/
Quick Glance: Legal Action Taken Against Tesla for Inadequate Warning in Employee Layoffs
- A former employee filed a lawsuit against Tesla Inc., alleging that the company's decision to lay off about 10% of its global workforce violated the law by not providing the required advance notice.
- The lawsuit claims that Tesla acted intentionally and with conscious disregard for the rights of its employees by failing to provide a 60-day warning as mandated by California law.
- In a recent communication to staff, CEO Elon Musk of Tesla disclosed the job cuts, mentioning reasons such as role duplication and the imperative to cut costs.
- Following the layoffs of over 500 employees at its battery factory near Reno, Nevada, in 2022, Tesla encountered similar accusations. A ruling moved the dispute from federal court in Austin, Texas, to arbitration.

Quick Glance: Majority of Seattle-area Renters Report Significant Rent Increases in Past 12 Months
- While rents in the Seattle area and nationally surged in the early pandemic years, the rental market seems to have calmed since 2023, providing some relief to local tenants.
- However, recent survey data from the US Census Bureau suggests that the majority of renters in the Seattle area may not agree with these reports.
- Out of the estimated 658,000 individuals who experienced rent hikes, approximately 113,000 had a relatively minor increase of under $100. A significantly larger group - around 306,000 - saw their rent rise between $100 and $249 per month.
- Established in 2020 as a response to the pandemic, the initiative aimed to inform authorities and policymakers about the pandemic's effects on communities nationwide and offer data to support recovery post-pandemic.

Quick Glance: Google terminates 28 employees after office occupation due to anti-Israel protests
- Google terminated 28 employees on Thursday who had occupied its offices to protest against contracts with the Israeli government, as confirmed by a Google spokesperson.
- The protesters were arrested and after refusing to leave the office of Google Cloud CEO Thomas Kurian in Sunnyvale or the workspace in New York City for nearly 10 hours, they were transferred to administrative positions to urge Google to terminate the Project Nimbus contract and cease business with the Israeli government.
- No Tech For Apartheid, a project by Jewish Voice for Peace and Linda Sarsour’s MPower Change, described the terminations as an "indiscriminate act of mass retaliation."
- The office occupations at Google were accompanied by demonstrations on-site and in Seattle, aiming to compel Google to withdraw from the project to establish cloud-based data centers and transition a significant portion of the Israeli government's IT infrastructure to cloud-based servers.
