New York (CNN Business) It's a hallmark sign of this strange pandemic labor market: America had a record 10.1 million jobs available in June, as businesses struggled to hire enough staff to support the full reopening of the economy. Hiring is rampant across industries, as businesses are still rebuilding the capacity lost during last year's lockdowns. Professional and business services, retail, hotels and restaurants added the most job openings, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics report released Monday. But many jobless workers are facing complexities. Some continue to struggle with finding child care, while others are concerned about the risk of contracting the virus at work.
