"I'm
pleased that the Chattahoochee-Flint area continues to
have low unemployment and steady job growth," said
Thurmond. "But, this has resulted in a tight job
market and shortage of skilled workers in some
industries. The labor shortages could lead to bidding
wars, as employers compete for skilled workers, and drive
up salaries and lead to an inflationary period," he
added.
During the
past year, employment in the area has increased by almost
3,700, for a growth rate of 2.9 percent.
Statewide,
Georgia has added 12,600 new jobs in the past year.
