Initial Unemployment Claims in Florida 2011-12-11 to 2011-12-17

Current: 12,053
Previous: 13,112

Initial unemployment claims decrease again this week for Florida, showing positive signs for the job market. This marks the third straight week of declining intial claims, and is the second lowest reading in the past three years; however, one blemish on an otherwise pleasant report is that continuing claims actually increased by about 8500 workers.
