This reading followed the 8.15 million openings announced in November and came in below the market expectation of 8 million.
"Over the month, hires and total separations were little changed at 5.5 million and 5.3 million, respectively. Within separations, quits (3.2 million) and layoffs and discharges (1.8 million) changed little," the BLS noted in its press release.
