Multiple jobholders in the US hit a record 8.8 million in January. This exceeds the pre-pandemic peak by nearly 400,000.

As a share of household employment, this number has reached the highest level since the Great Financial Crisis.

Record household debt and necessities prices with historically low savings are forcing Americans to work multiple jobs to make ends meet. This is especially evident for the two-thirds of the bottom-income households.
