Labor market stalls between week ending July 19 (4th from last bar) through week ending Aug 9 (last bar), per data on shifts worked at timekeeping company @KronosInc.
New evidence still signalling labor market stall in upcoming August #JobsReport.
Little change from week ending July 19th (5th from last bar) through week ending Aug 16 (last bar) in data on shifts worked @KronosInc.
However, some evidence of a tick up in hiring in this data in week ending Aug 16.
Some good labor-market news from timekeeper @KronosInc's latest weekly report.
Although the number of shifts worked did not seem to change much between the July and Aug CPS reference weeks, looks like an uptick in the following week, ending 8/23.

10% of America's abt 155 million employees belong to a union.
+1 percentage point a year requires +1.55 million net members if employment flat.
In 2022, union membership rose 273K, 6X smaller.
Estimated +273K from @BLS_gov worker survey. Reflects net hiring by union employers, priv (+193K) + public (+80K) sector, & new organizing inside & outside NLRB.
Abt 52K private sector workers voted to newly unionize in 2022, eyeballing @KevinReuning's NLRB data. 30X smaller.
@BLS_gov@KevinReuning The AFL-CIO's strategy aims to organize 1 million workers over 10 yrs, +100K/yr pace.
That's either 37% of the 2022 pace if it includes all change or less than 2X 2022's pace if newly unionized only.
