IMPORTANT NOTE: The employment data for the month of May 2021 is taken from the survey week including May 12. Data for the month of June is scheduled for release on July 16, 2021.

June 18, 2021 - SACRAMENTO – California’s unemployment rate fell to 7.9% in May as the state’s employers gained 104,500 non-farm payroll jobs1, according to data released today by the California Employment Development Department (EDD) from two surveys. This comes after April’s upwards-revised (+200 jobs) month-over gain of 102,000 jobs and a downwards-revised (-59,400) unemployment month-over change of -62,600.

California payroll jobs totaled 16,352,900 in May 2021, up 104,500 from April 2021 and up from 15,132,700 from May 2020.

California’s Labor Market, by the Numbers...

  • May’s unemployment rate2 is nearly half of the 16% peak rate in April 2020, but is still 3.6% higher than the pre-pandemic unemployment rate of 4.3% in February 2020.
  • From February 2021 through May 2021, California added 495,000 total non-farm payroll jobs, marking the state’s fourth consecutive month of gains of more than 100,000 jobs.
  • Of the 2,714,800 jobs lost in March and April 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic, California has now regained 1,406,800 (51.8%), with a third of those jobs (468,000) coming from the hard-hit Leisure & Hospitality industry.
  • Nine of California’s 11 industry sectors gained jobs in May. Leisure & Hospitality (+62,300) continued to have the state’s largest month-over increase thanks to large gains in Accommodations and Food Services & Drinking Places, as well as in Arts, Entertainment, and Recreation. Information’s large job increase (+11,200) was in large part due to gains in Motion Picture and Sound Recording industries.
  • Construction (-1,600) suffered the largest month-over job reduction due to losses in Non-Residential Building Construction and Building Foundation & Exterior Contractors.

1. The nonfarm payroll job numbers come from a federal survey of 80,000 California businesses.
2. The unemployment rate comes from a separate federal survey of 5,100 California households.
