Floridas Nonagricultural Employment by Industry (Seasonally Adjusted)

The number of jobs in Florida was 7,618,900 in October 2013, up 182,200 jobs compared to a year ago. October 2013
was the 39th consecutive month with positive annual job growth after the state lost jobs for over three years. The
industry gaining the most jobs was trade, transportation, and utilities (+56,300 jobs, +3.6 percent).

Other industries gaining jobs included leisure and hospitality (+39,500 jobs, +3.9 percent); professional and business
services (+38,500 jobs, +3.6 percent); construction (+26,600 jobs, +7.7 percent); private education and health services
(+15,100 jobs, +1.3 percent); financial activities (+9,000 jobs, +1.8 percent); other services (+3,000 jobs, +1.0 percent);
information (+2,800 jobs, +2.1 percent); and manufacturing (+400 jobs, +0.1 percent).

These industry job gains were partially due to increases in food and beverage stores; food services and drinking places;
employment services; specialty trade contractors; ambulatory health care services; real estate; repair and
maintenance; and fabricated metal product manufacturing.

Total government (-9,000 jobs, -0.8 percent) was the only major industry losing jobs over the year. All government
sectors were down from October 2012, with over half of the losses in federal government.
Local Area Unemployment Statistics (Not Seasonally Adjusted)

In October 2013, Monroe County had the states lowest unemployment rate (3.8 percent), followed by Walton County
(3.9 percent), Okaloosa County (4.4 percent), Alachua County (4.7 percent), and St. Johns County (4.9 percent). Many
of the counties with the lowest unemployment rates were those with relatively high proportions of government
employment.

Hendry County had the highest unemployment rate (12.0 percent) in Florida in October 2013, followed by Flagler
County (9.4 percent), St. Lucie County (8.8 percent), Putnam County (8.6 percent), and Miami-Dade County (8.5
percent). Hendry County had the highest unemployment rate in the state in October, due mainly to long-term job
losses in state government. Hendry was the only county in Florida with double-digit unemployment in both
September and October.
Area Nonagricultural Employment (Not Seasonally Adjusted)

Twenty of the 22 metro areas in the state had over-the-year job gains in October 2013. The areas with the largest
gains were Tampa-St. Petersburg-Clearwater (+39,800 jobs, +3.4 percent), Orlando-Kissimmee-Sanford (+29,100, +2.8
percent), and Ft. Lauderdale-Pompano Beach-Deerfield Beach (+18,900 jobs, +2.6 percent).

The two metro areas that lost jobs over the year were Panama City-Lynn Haven-Panama City Beach (-2,200 jobs, -3.0
percent) and Palm Coast (-700 jobs, -3.4 percent).
Note: The unemployment and job growth rates are estimates, which are primarily based on surveys created and mandated by the U.S. Bureau of Labor
Statistics in cooperation with the Florida Department of Economic Opportunity.
The unemployment rate is derived from Florida household surveys conducted by the U.S. Census Bureau under contract with the U.S. Bureau of Labor
Statistics. The job growth rate is derived from Florida employer surveys conducted by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics.
Both estimates are revised on a monthly basis. In addition, these estimates are benchmarked (revised) annually based on actual counts from Florida's
Reemployment Assistance tax records and other data.
Procedures mandated by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics may result in more variable month-to-month changes. For further information, go to:
http://www.bls.gov/sae/cesprocs.htm

The mission of the Florida Department of Economic Opportunity is to promote economic prosperity for all Floridians and businesses
through successful workforce, community, and economic development strategies. Please visit www.floridajobs.org for more
information.
The next Florida Employment and Unemployment release will be December 20, 2013, at 10:00 A.M.
