Mass ranks 49th in job creation

November 28, 2007

Massachusetts is near the bottom of the barrel when it comes to creating jobs, according to a report scheduled to be issued later today. 

The state ranked 49th in job creation over the last six years, and registered a loss in its share of the nation's payroll jobs, according to the report, which is to be issued jointly by the Massachusetts Institute for a New Commonwealth (MassINC) and Northeastern University's Center for Labor Market Studies.
