Data Flash: January Jobs Report Show Big Jump in EPOPsThe January employment report showed the employment-to-population ratio (EPOP) rising from 58.6 percent to 58.8 percent. This matches the previous high for the recovery in October of 2012. The household survey showed employment rising by 638,000 after increasing just 101,000 over the prior two months. Interestingly the growth was concentrated among younger workers. Employment for workers between the ages of 25-34 rose by 230,000, while employment for workers between the ages of 44-54 rose by 318,000, a one month increase of more than 1.0 percent. Whites disproportionately benefited from the rise in employment with the EPOP for both white men and white women rising by 0.4 percentage points.
The establishment survey was not nearly as positive, showing an increase of just 113,000 workers following last month's weak 75,000 gain.
