Cinema, Sports, and Amusement Park employment

The following industries; Drive-in Motion Pictures (NAICS 512131), Motion Picture Theatres (NAICS 512132), Amusement Parks and Arcades (NAICS 7112), Promoters of Peforming Arts (NAICS 7113), and Spectator Sports (NAICS 7131), were greatly affected during the Covid-19 pandemic. They were deemed nonessential during the first phase of Covid-19 mandates. Even after they were allowed to reopen, the impacts were felt for months.

Motion Picture Theatres saw the greatest decline in employment during this time. After reaching its peak at 1,846 during second quarter of 2019, it would fall to 183 in second quarter of 2020. This equates to a decrease of 1,663 or roughly a decrease of 90%. Since that time, this industry has recovered. As of fourth quarter of 2021, employment sits at 1,210 or 65.5 perecent of the peak.

Spectator sports decreased by nearly 440 jobs or 36.1% from second quarter of 2019 to second quarter of 2020. As of second quarter of 2020, it has more than recovered to a new record level of 1,313.

Promoters of Performing Arts, Sports, and Similar Events reached its peak of 2,275 during third quarter of 2019. As of third quarter of 2019, this industry had lost 1,329 jobs or a decrease of 58.4 percent. Since that time, they have recovered 78.7 percent of their pre-pandemic peak employment.

Amusement parks and arcades saw peak employment during third quarter of 2019 at 1,359. This industry is quite seasonal with the third quarter of the year being the highest and fourth quarter being the lowest. From 2002 to 2021, the average third quarter employment is 1059 and 547 for the fourth quarter. This equates to an average decrease of 512 or 48.3 percent). In 2020, this decline was even more pronounced as it decreased from 1,230 to 394 or 67.9 percent. For the third quarter of 2021, this industry had recovered 79.2 percent of its pre-pandemic high.

Starting in May 2020, many businesses across many industries were shut down in hopes of mitigating the spread of COVID-19. On an annual basis, some industries were impacted more than others. Comparing second quarter of 2020 to second quarter of 2019, the industries employing more than 1,000, that were impacted the most were the following.

  1. Motion Picture Theatres (NAICS 512131), -90.2 percent, 38.8 percent*
  2. Taxi Services (NAICS 485310), -82.7 percent, 47.5 percent
  3. Limousine Services (NAICS 485320), -82.3 percent, 44.1 percent
  4. Convention/Trade Show Organizers (NAICS 561920), -74.1 percent, -6.9 percent
  5. Drinking Places (NAICS 722410), -77.4 percent, 62.9 percent

*(Industry name, NAICS Code, 2019 second quarter to 2020 second quarter change, percent recovered as of second quarter of 2021 )

Since that time, none of these five has recovered to their pre-pandemic peak. Drinking places leading the way at having recovered 62.9% of the nearly 6,400 jobs lost on an annual basis from second quarter of 2019 to second quarter of 2020.

Of those industries listed for Nevada, similar declines were realized nationally. The greatest percentage decrease was in Motion Picture Theatres. This same industry has also recovered the small percentage of its 2019 employment level.

People with Disabilities

Information from the monthly Current Population Survey (CPS), sponsored by the Census Bureau and the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), allows us to analyze the unemployment rate of Nevadans with disabilities. Estimates for people with disabilities are available since 2009. Please note that, the CPS estimates in less populous states, are subject to rather large sampling error. Sampling error measures the variation that occurs by chance because a sample rather than the entire population is surveyed.

The unemployment rate of people with disabilities is a simple measure: the ratio of the people with disabilities who are unemployed relative to people with disabilities in the labor force (either as workers or job seekers). CPS classifies persons as having a disability if they have a physical, mental, or emotional conditions that cause serious difficulty with their daily activities.

Unemployment rate for people with disabilities.

In mid-2010 the unemployment rate for Nevadans with disabilities peaked at 24.9 percent (expressed as a 12-month moving average). Nationwide the rate peaked at 14.6 percent in late 2011. For the year ending March 2021, the unemployment rate for people with disabilities in the Silver State is 10.5 percent, this is down 14.4 percentage points from mid-2010. In the U.S. the rate stands at 9.5 percent, down 5.1 percentage points from late 2011.
