US JOLTS Job Openings rise to 7.22 in August vs. 7.2 million forecast
Tuesday, 30 September 2025 21:16 WIB | ECONOMY |Ekonomi AS

The number of job openings on the last business day of August stood at 7.22 million, the US Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) reported in the Job Openings and Labor Turnover Survey (JOLTS) on Tuesday. This reading followed the 7.2 million openings reported for July and came in above the market expectation of 7.2 million.

"Over the month, both hires and total separations were little changed at 5.1 million," the BLS noted in its press release. "Within separations, both quits (3.1 million) and layoffs and discharges (1.7 million) were little changed."

This data failed to trigger a noticeable market reaction. At the time of press, the US Dollar Index was down 0.1% on the day at 97.85.
