INDIANAPOLIS – Indiana’s unemployment rate remained unchanged in February.

"Indiana's overall economic footing and outlook remain solid with near historically low unemployment," said DWD Commissioner Richard Paulk. "Peak private sector employment - 2,845,200 jobs - is driven by robust labor force participation in the key 25-54 demographic."
