[excerpt]
From April to July 2007, the number of employed youth 16 to 24 years old
increased by 2.3 million to 21.7 million, the Bureau of Labor Statistics
of the U.S. Department of Labor reported today. July is the traditional
summertime peak for youth employment. This summer�s increase in youth
employment was slightly lower than last year�s 2.5 million increase.
Unemployment among youth increased by 548,000 between April and July, a
smaller rise than in 2006. (Because this analysis focuses on the seasonal
changes in youth employment and unemployment that occur every spring and
summer, the data are not seasonally adjusted.)
AND MUCH MORE...including TABLES....
