Underemployment hits Iowa at 11.6 percent in slow recovery
The Iowa Policy Project reports 11.6 percent underemployment in Iowa as wages stagnate since the 2008 recession. Long-term joblessness and manufacturing losses drive slow growth with few wage gains in the recovery. Policy recommendations urge minimum wage indexing, education and infrastructure spending, and stronger stimulus.
