Maryland gains 500 jobs in January, unemployment rate holds steady

Maryland added 500 jobs in January, driven by gains in the public sector and keeping the unemployment rate steady.

Private sector jobs in the state decreased by 300 in the month, according to data released Tuesday by the U.S. Department of Labor. The public sector, meanwhile, added 500 jobs in January.

The state's preliminary unemployment rate remained at 5.5 percent, on par with the U.S. unemployment rate in February.

Kelly M. Schulz, Maryland's newly appointed labor secretary, said the private sector losses reflect reductions from seasonal hospitality jobs during the holiday months.
