Here's an article from BizJournals that was highlighted in a recent newsletter from the Central Massachusetts Workforce Investment Board (CMWIB). Among the interesting points to note, Boston's private industry growth in the past year has been at 2.7%... Worcester's private industry growth was 4.27% in that same time period. If the author of this BizJournal thought Boston's growth was impressive, then Worcester's is even moreso. This is moderately good news for Worcester-area employment. Here's a link to the article provided by the CMWIB: Boston Tops Quarterly Job Ratings; Fresno is Dead Last.
