Pasadena, CA — When manufacturing takes a hit, jobs in general get pummeled. More than 51,000 non-farm manufacturing jobs were slashed in September as a result of the widening credit crisis and excessive debt. More people than expected filed for unemployment last week, according to government data released Thursday, pushing claims for jobless benefits to a seven-year high. A wide variety of manufacturing companies are facing the music of an escalating recession.
ManufacturingCrossing, an affiliate of EmploymentCrossing, one of the leading job boards in the US, seeks to extricate the US manufacturing sector from the rubble. The manufacturing job site has added more than 10,000 manufacturing jobs to its database. The manufacturing job site provides instant access to a comprehensive pool of listings based on one's particular area of interest. ManufacturingCrossing scours thousands of webpages and more than 250,000 employer websites for exclusive manufacturing jobs to list in its database. The job board has also begun to intensify its job search of late in its quest to ward off unemployment in the US.
''The US should quickly pivot its attention to the structural problems in our economy, including a massive trade debt, crumbling infrastructure, and competitive pressures that are eliminating good paying manufacturing jobs,'' says Harrison Barnes, the CEO and founder of ManufacturingCrossing. ''Manufacturing companies all over America are suffering. It's time for the government to respond, and it must do so quickly. ManufacturingCrossing is also doing its best to stage a major revival for manufacturing job seekers.''
Meanwhile, the Labor Department said recently that the weak economy, and the impact of hurricanes Ike and Gustav, caused new claims for unemployment benefits to increase slightly last week to 497,000. That's the highest weekly number since claims reached 517,000 roughly two weeks after the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks, the department said.
The biggest manufacturing employment losses were in motor vehicles manufacturing, with 18,200 job cuts. There were 5,200 job cuts among furniture makers and 4,500 reductions by wood products manufacturers. There were also 7,300 job cuts made by manufacturers of fabricated metal products, which are used for items like machinery and computer equipment. Transportation equipment manufacturers slashed payrolls by 12,900 jobs.
''It's important to create as many jobs as possible in every US state to combat the downturn and revive employment statistics all over,'' says Barnes. ''But what is most important for the individual job seeker is that he or she searches for new jobs in the right place.
''ManufacturingCrossing is a revolutionary job board for manufacturing job seekers as it strives to post each and every manufacturing job opening there is. ManufacturingCrossing weeds out spam and jobs outside your niche, allowing you to search efficiently and specifically. Trust the only job source that's tailored to your industry.''
ManufacturingCrossing aims to update its website with all of the most recent manufacturing jobs. The website plans to add thousands of jobs this month in its continuing efforts to offer the highest number of active jobs possible to manufacturing job seekers.
