The unemployment rate for all veterans in November stood at a low 2.8% in another sign that veterans continue to excel in a consistently strong labor market that has withstood the buffeting of inflation, hurricanes and strikes, the Bureau of Labor Statistics reported Friday.

In its monthly report on the nation’s employment situation, the BLS noted that the 2.8% jobless rate for veterans was exactly the same as the rate for veterans in November 2023 and was far better than the unemployment rate for the general population, which ticked up from 4.1% in October to 4.2% in November.
