After a period of unprecedented upheaval and historically unprecedented conditions, the U.S. labor market appears to have emerged from the COVID-era into a period of comparatively normal conditions. However, the labor market remains very tight by historical standards, and is always changing in ways that create new challenges and opportunities for employers and workers alike.
