Number of US Workers with Second Jobs Hits 8%
By EmploymentCrossing
The number of Americans working multiple jobs to make ends meet stayed steady in 2007, the US Bureau of Labor Statistics says.
Nationally, 5.2% of American workers held at least one additional job last year, the same percentage as in 2006, the Honolulu Star-Bulletin reported Saturday.
While 26 states and the District of Columbia experienced decreases in their multiple job-holding rates, 20 states recorded increases. Four states reported no change.
Overall, 28 states had higher multiple job-holding rates than the national average, the newspaper reported.
South Dakota had the highest percentage of workers holding multiple jobs at 10.2%, followed by Nebraska, Vermont, Kansas, Iowa, North Dakota, and Minnesota.
