Anchorage AK sees More Jobs and Wage Increases

According to a recent report from the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), Anchorage Alaska is experiencing an increase in both wages and the number of jobs.  The BLS branch chief, David Hiles, explains that it is difficult to show the conditions of a local job-market when pay raises may mean more layoffs for less experienced or lower paid workers in the market; but the fact that wages are increasing and more jobs are appearing is telling of a positive direction for Anchorage AK this year.
