New jobless claims: 1,002 - Pacific Business News (Honolulu):
There were 1,002 new and 6,425 total claims for unemployment compensation across Hawaii in the seven days through Sunday. Both numbers were down.
New claims fell by 83 and total claims fell by 465, the Hawaii Department of Labor & Industrial Relations reported Thursday. The figures are newer than the data which went into the July unemployment report, also issued Thursday, and give some indication that the next monthly report will be similar to the 3 percent rate logged for July.
