Travel Employment Reaches New Record High

“The travel industry benefitted from a fifth straight month of growth, adding 8,500 jobs

this month, again reaching an all-time high. Albeit from a very high base, November’s travel employment increase was slower than the 12-month average of more than 11,000 jobs per month.

 

The travel industry has been outpacing the economy–growing 37 percent faster since the recession.

 

“Total travel job growth in 2014 so far has been just shy of 120,000, and the industry has experienced positive growth in all but one month this year. If history is an indicator, December job growth will likely be higher than November, bringing the industry close to, if not surpassing, the increase of 140,000 jobs.
