Iowa non farm employment reached an all time July high despite a 16 400 job decline from June due to summer cutbacks in public and private education The goods producing sector added 1 800 workers lifting overall employment and signaling strength in manufacturing and construction sectors.
Iowa's construction employment reached 52 300 last month the highest since 1980 with a 5 percent rise from June and a near 14 percent year over year gain. Nonfarm and manufacturing shifts offset by sector gains, while average pay rose slightly for private workers and Cedar Rapids and Iowa City areas show mixed results amid broader July employment trends. Iowa's IDOT study shows fivefold hike in convictions for passing stopped school buses after a two year old law with a spike from 321 in 1987 to 1 675 in 1989. The law requires drivers to slow to 20 mph near amber warnings and stop when stop arms extend with exceptions for opposing directions on multi lane roads.
