So far, in 2023, there have been 5,231 jobs cut in Minnesota. This is already far more than the number of job losses in 2022.
Last year, there were just 1525 jobs lost in the state,” reports Ash Jurberg.

State data shows the more than 6,000 employees were laid off within the first five months in 2018, Minnesota’s current record high.
