What it measures

Job Openings and Labor Turnover Survey, in one paragraph

The Job Openings and Labor Turnover Survey counts unfilled openings, hires, and separations split into quits and layoffs. The quits line is the part that reads worker confidence rather than employer demand.

What JMM reads first

Openings get the headline and quits carry the signal. People leave voluntarily when they believe another job is available, so the quits rate turns before the unemployment rate does. JOLTS also runs a month behind the Employment Situation, which is why it is context rather than news.
