The data below pulls from the Bureau of Labor Statistics’ JOLTS and Employment Situation releases, SHRM’s benchmarking reports, and named third-party labor market research, so every number below can be traced back to a primary source rather than a recycled “average.”<\/p>\n\n <h2 id=\"labor-market\">The 2026 labor market snapshot<\/h2>\n <p>The headline story of 2026 is a market that looks stable on paper but is quietly slowing underneath. Job openings sat at roughly 7.6 million in May 2026, essentially unchanged from April, while the layoff rate ticked up only slightly to 1.1%. The quits rate \u2014 widely used as the best gauge of worker confidence \u2014 has held at or below 2% for nearly a year, well under the 3% peak of the 2022 Great Resignation. That matters because it signals employees aren’t voluntarily switching jobs, even with openings near recent highs.<\/p>\n <p>Hiring itself has cooled more than openings suggest. June 2026 payrolls grew by just 57,000, missing consensus forecasts of roughly 115,000, with April and May combined revised down by 74,000. The unemployment rate ticked down to 4.2%, but largely because labor force participation fell to 61.5% \u2014 its lowest level since March 2021 \u2014 rather than because more people found jobs.<\/p>\n\n <table>\n <caption>US labor market indicators, 2026<\/caption>\n <thead>\n <tr><th>Metric<\/th><th>Latest value<\/th><th>Trend<\/th><th>Source<\/th><\/tr>\n <\/thead>\n <tbody>\n <tr><td>Job openings (JOLTS)<\/td><td>7.6 million (May 2026)<\/td><td><span class=\"pill down\">Flat<\/span><\/td><td>BLS<\/td><\/tr>\n <tr><td>Hires rate<\/td><td>5.2 million total hires\/month<\/td><td><span class=\"pill down\">Subdued<\/span><\/td><td>BLS \/ Indeed Hiring Lab<\/td><\/tr>\n <tr><td>Quits rate<\/td><td>1.9%<\/td><td><span class=\"pill down\">Low confidence<\/span><\/td><td>BLS<\/td><\/tr>\n <tr><td>Layoffs rate<\/td><td>1.1%<\/td><td><span class=\"pill up\">Stable<\/span><\/td><td>BLS<\/td><\/tr>\n <tr><td>Unemployment rate<\/td><td>4.2% (June 2026)<\/td><td><span class=\"pill up\">Slight decline<\/span><\/td><td>BLS Employment Situation<\/td><\/tr>\n <tr><td>Nonfarm payroll growth<\/td><td>+57,000 (June 2026)<\/td><td><span class=\"pill down\">Below forecast<\/span><\/td><td>BLS<\/td><\/tr>\n <tr><td>Labor force participation<\/td><td>61.5%<\/td><td><span class=\"pill down\">4-year low<\/span><\/td><td>BLS<\/td><\/tr>\n <tr><td>Average hourly earnings growth<\/td><td>+3.5% year-over-year<\/td><td><span class=\"pill up\">Steady<\/span><\/td><td>BLS<\/td><\/tr>\n <\/tbody>\n <\/table>\n\n <div class=\"callout\">\n <p><strong>What this means for hiring teams:<\/strong> low quits plus flat openings means candidates are harder to pull out of current roles, even though headline vacancy numbers look healthy.

The data below pulls from the Bureau of Labor Statistics’ JOLTS and Employment Situation releases, SHRM’s benchmarking reports, and named third-party labor market research, so every number below can be traced back to a primary source rather than a recycled “average.”<\/p>\n\n <h2 id=\"labor-market\">The 2026 labor market snapshot<\/h2>\n <p>The headline story of 2026 is a market that looks stable on paper but is quietly slowing underneath. Job openings sat at roughly 7.6 million in May 2026, essentially unchanged from April, while the layoff rate ticked up only slightly to 1.1%. The quits rate \u2014 widely used as the best gauge of worker confidence \u2014 has held at or below 2% for nearly a year, well under the 3% peak of the 2022 Great Resignation. That matters because it signals employees aren’t voluntarily switching jobs, even with openings near recent highs.<\/p>\n <p>Hiring itself has cooled more than openings suggest. June 2026 payrolls grew by just 57,000, missing consensus forecasts of roughly 115,000, with April and May combined revised down by 74,000. The unemployment rate ticked down to 4.2%, but largely because labor force participation fell to 61.5% \u2014 its lowest level since March 2021 \u2014 rather than because more people found jobs.<\/p>\n\n <table>\n <caption>US labor market indicators, 2026<\/caption>\n <thead>\n <tr><th>Metric<\/th><th>Latest value<\/th><th>Trend<\/th><th>Source<\/th><\/tr>\n <\/thead>\n <tbody>\n <tr><td>Job openings (JOLTS)<\/td><td>7.6 million (May 2026)<\/td><td><span class=\"pill down\">Flat<\/span><\/td><td>BLS<\/td><\/tr>\n <tr><td>Hires rate<\/td><td>5.2 million total hires\/month<\/td><td><span class=\"pill down\">Subdued<\/span><\/td><td>BLS \/ Indeed Hiring Lab<\/td><\/tr>\n <tr><td>Quits rate<\/td><td>1.9%<\/td><td><span class=\"pill down\">Low confidence<\/span><\/td><td>BLS<\/td><\/tr>\n <tr><td>Layoffs rate<\/td><td>1.1%<\/td><td><span class=\"pill up\">Stable<\/span><\/td><td>BLS<\/td><\/tr>\n <tr><td>Unemployment rate<\/td><td>4.2% (June 2026)<\/td><td><span class=\"pill up\">Slight decline<\/span><\/td><td>BLS Employment Situation<\/td><\/tr>\n <tr><td>Nonfarm payroll growth<\/td><td>+57,000 (June 2026)<\/td><td><span class=\"pill down\">Below forecast<\/span><\/td><td>BLS<\/td><\/tr>\n <tr><td>Labor force participation<\/td><td>61.5%<\/td><td><span class=\"pill down\">4-year low<\/span><\/td><td>BLS<\/td><\/tr>\n <tr><td>Average hourly earnings growth<\/td><td>+3.5% year-over-year<\/td><td><span class=\"pill up\">Steady<\/span><\/td><td>BLS<\/td><\/tr>\n <\/tbody>\n <\/table>\n\n <div class=\"callout\">\n <p><strong>What this means for hiring teams:<\/strong> low quits plus flat openings means candidates are harder to pull out of current roles, even though headline vacancy numbers look healthy.
