U.S. Hotels Record Bump in Jobs But Still Behind 2019 Levels
06.10.2023 - 20:03 / skift.com / Rashaad Jorden / Chip Rogers
U.S. hotels again saw an increase in job growth in September. But despite the surge in hiring, the industry still has a long way to go to fully recover from the pandemic.
The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics revealed Friday that hotels added roughly 15,600 jobs in September, up from the revised 12,000 jobs added in August. Meanwhile, the broader leisure and hospitality category — which includes hotels — added about 96,000 positions, representing about 29% of the total jobs created in the U.S. last month.
The unemployment rate for leisure and hospitality in September was 5.4%, down from 5.9% a year earlier. But it’s the highest unemployment rate among all the major sectors tracked by BLS. In addition, hotel employment levels are 10.3% below February 2020 levels.
“Hotel job growth was strong this month thanks to near-historic wages, better benefits, and more workplace flexibility than ever before. But hotels are still nearly 217,000 jobs short of pre-pandemic levels,” said Chip Rogers, president and CEO of the American Hotel & Lodging Association.
“That’s why AHLA continues to ask Congress for help addressing the economy-wide shortage of workers that’s driving our industry’s workforce shortage. That includes establishing an H-2B returning worker exemption, passing the Asylum Seeker Work Authorization Act, and passing the H-2 Improvements to Relieve Employers (HIRE) Act.”
The U.S. added 336,000 jobs in September, close to double the month’s projected job increase and 109,000 jobs more than August’s revised figure. The U.S. unemployment rate remained unchanged at 3.8%.

I moved from Seattle to Peru. There's been crime and political violence, but the friends I've made here make it worth it.
When I tell Americans I live in Cusco, Peru, I often get a puzzled look. When I add that it's the Inca capital you fly to on your way to visit Machu Picchu, their eyes light up. It's beautiful, and I love living here, but it's far from perfect. There's been political instability and crime. But for me, Cusco has always proved worth the downsides.
