The Louisiana Workforce Commission today announced that Baton Rouge’s not seasonally adjusted unemployment rate hit 4.2% in June.
While that rate is a full percentage point higher than May’s 3.2%, which was the lowest not seasonally adjusted rate in over a decade, it is still significantly lower than the region’s 6.7% rate in June 2021.
Overall, Louisiana’s not seasonally adjusted rate was 4.6% last month, which the Workforce Commission says is the lowest June number ever recorded.
