Utah has released updated unemployment data. March’s seasonally adjusted unemployment rate is estimated at 3.8%, unchanged from the month before. Approximately 69,700 Utahns are unemployed. The March national unemployment rate is estimated at 4.3%, 0.1% lower than February 2026. The Utah seasonally adjusted unemployment rate for March 2026 in Daggett County is 4.1%, in Duchesne County is 4.2%, and in Uintah County is 3.9%. “The state maintains a steady 3.8% unemployment rate, but the job market is tightening for job seekers, with fewer job openings per unemployed worker,” shares DWS chief economist Ben Crabb.
