Louisiana Construction Jobs
Construction jobs are almost as seasonal as damaging storms, except in Louisiana. Although Hurricanes Katrina and Gustav brought devastating destruction to Louisiana, Louisiana's construction industry took a turn in a multitude of jobs.
For many years, Louisiana's construction industry was at a steady pace with jobs. After Katrina and Gustav, with help from stimulus money and recovery grants, Louisiana experienced an increase in construction jobs.
Louisiana added 4,200 jobs in the past year, increasing jobs from 135,700 to 139,900 in July 2009. Baton Rouge had the fourth highest construction job growth among other United States metro area in July.
In September 2009, 138,200 people were working in the construction industry in Louisiana, which was 2,800 jobs more, or 2.1 increases from September 2008 jobs. Louisiana was the only state in the country with such an increase in the construction industry in September 2009 than in September 2008.
According to the Associated General Contractors of America, Louisiana's construction industry employed 138,200 people in September, up 2,800 jobs or 2.1 percent, over the previous September.
The stimulus money helped create jobs in many states, including Louisiana; however, there is no doubt that the construction industry continues to shed jobs at an alarming rate in many states except Louisiana.
