Oregon’s string of monthly jobs gains has come to an end after nearly a year.
The state Employment Department said Tuesday that employers cut 4,300 jobs during June.
The Oregonian reported the losses were widespread, spanning blue-collar and white-collar industries, as well as low- and high-paid jobs.
Construction companies had been adding workers at a rapid clip, but cut back by about 3,600 jobs. The figures are seasonally adjusted.
Cuts also came in the manufacturing, business services, leisure and hospitality, financial and retail sectors.
