READY FOR THE FUTURE
CWA's Strategic Plan To Move Forward
Telecom unemployment rate stands at 10.1%

August 9 2010 - 12:24 pm ET | Tracy Ford | RCR Wireless News
The telecommunications sector lost 49,500 jobs from July 2009 to July
2010, including 5,800 jobs lost from June to July of this year. The U.S.
Bureau of Labor Statistics counted 919,400 jobs in the sector in July.

Overall, the telecom unemployment rate inched up month over month
from 9% to 10.1% in July. Year over year, however, the unemployment
rate stayed flat. The number of jobs in the wireless subsector creeped
up about 1,000 year over year and month over month to 193,100
positions in June. These figures lag by a month. The unemployment
rate nationwide remained steady at 9.5%, although payroll employment
dropped by 131,000 jobs.

A total of 16% of telecom workers belonged to unions in 2009,
according to the labor bureau. A push is under way by the
Communications Workers of America to form a union for employees at
T-Mobile USA Inc., similar to the union that is organized at German
parent Deutsche Telekom AG. According to the CWA, German
organizers met with House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Federal
Communications Commission Chairman Julius Genachowski in late
July to talk about organizing T-Mobile USA workers, and labor rights
issues at Deutsche Telekom.
