We break down the labor market data in August, including wages, health care costs, and where the jobs actually are.
Excellent discussion on the board responsibility to workers and how the current discussion around AI and work is something the board must tackle. Even better if done with the help of experienced HR leaders and a human capital committee.
As AI reshapes the workforce, what responsibility do corporate boards have?
@ColleenAMadden talks with governance expert Michael Peregrine about AI, worker displacement and board oversight.

The debate over AI and jobs is getting louder. What exactly is going on?
• Certain roles, especially in tech, are being displaced
• Companies are actively investing in this technology and expect workers to learn it
• Widespread mass unemployment is far from certain

BREAKING ON JOBS: February job cuts fell 55% to 48,307. The Jan-Feb total of 156,742 is the lowest since 2022. Hiring plans are down 56% from YTD 2025.
Strategic cuts. Not panic. But caution remains.

Does AI-washing really matter? Companies are blaming the tech for layoffs; whether it actually replaces workers isn't changing the plans. Though Congress is working to stem the flow of layoffs attributed AI, some damage is already done: AI was claimed in 91,753 job since 2023.

The @WSJ talked to our SVP Andy Challenger about the labor market.
"It's slow cooling," he said. "I don't think there is evidence that we're going to hit a cliff and see layoffs accelerate."
