2026 Q3 US Transportation Labor Market Update

The transportation vertical slightly picked up speed in the third quarter of 2026, as job postings in three of four categories notched year-over-year gains. However, driving wage growth eased in recent months, and workers remain cautious about job switching as the quits rate rests at its 2019 average.
