Job creation slows in the United States

Washington (United States), July 7 (EFE).- Job creation in the United States slowed down considerably in June, although the rate fell one tenth to 3.6%, according to data published this Friday by the Bureau of Labor Statistics.

Thus, 209,000 net jobs were created in the sixth month of the year, 130,000 fewer than in May, at a time when the effects on the labor market of the interest rate hikes implemented by the Federal Reserve (Fed) to curb inflation are being closely analyzed.
