During the comparable period of the 1979 fiscal year, there were 3.67 appli cants for every job opening received. Commission of ficials say the increase in the number of applicants per job opening indicates that the state's economy has tightened. During the first six months of fiscal 1980, 331,160 people registered for jobs at the 89 local and branch Job Service offices in North Carolina, while 315,001 registered during the first half of 1979. But the number of job openings received by the commis sion fell from 85,853 during the first half of fiscal 1979 to only 78,470 during the first half of this fiscal year, according to statistics com piled by the commission's Bureau of Employment Se curity Research. The fact that 16,000 more North Carolinians regis tered to apply for work while there were 7,000 few er job openings received during the comparable periods may indicate that people who have not looked for work recently have re entered the labor force, sa<d David Garrison, as sistant director of the bureau. The figures may mean, for example, that more married women are looking for work to sup plement family incomes while their husband are laid off or placed on shorter work weeks he said. At the same time employers may have be come more hesitant about filling vacancies because of economic uncertainties Garrison said. On March 31, 1979, 161,147 people had active job applications on file at Job Service offices, while there were 12,368 unfilled job·. On March 31, I960, there were 186.474 active applications and 11,120 un filled jobs. The job squeeze appears to have hit all occupations equally, Garrison said. During the comparable six month periods, the number of registered applicants in creased in all nine occupa tional grouping, while the number of openings listed with Job Service offices fell in eight of the nine group ings. There were 73,555 regis tered applicants for cleri cal and sales occupations during the first half of fiscal 1980, compared to 68,654 registered appli cants during the compar able period in the 1979 fiscal year. But the number of clerical and sales open ings received by Job Ser vice offices fell from 18,124 to 16,831. The category in cludes secretaries, clerks, bookkeepers, telephone operators and sales agents and representatives. The number of registered applicants in service oc cupations increased from 46,433 to 51,676 during the comparable six-month periods, while the number of listed job openings re ceived declined from 14,734 »/. to ecn In miscellaneous occupa tions, which include truck and bus drivers, packagers and laborers, the number of registered applicants in creased from 39,516 during the first half of fiscal 1979 to 43,444 in the comparable fiscal 1980 period. But Job openings received . during the six-month periods fell from 11,335 to 9,568. The number of appli cants registering for struc tural work occupations, which include construction industry jobs, increased from 35,166 to 41,979. But the number of structural work job openings received fell from 14,265 to 12,037. The only increase in job openings received during the comparable six-month periods was in agriculture, fishery and forestry occu pations, the smallest of the nine maior occupational groupings. The number of job openings increased from 2,577 to 3,286 while the number of registered applicants during the com parable periods increased from 8,620 to 8,778. Job Service offices filled 5,000 fewer jobs during the first half of this fiscal year than during the first half of fiscal 1979. Ν SU Offers Graduate Program In Business NORFOLK, VA.
