As job expansion continues in the U.S., one of the most impacted groups is Hispanics who have seen an employment increase of 5% over the past year. For white Americans, there has only been a 1.4% increase of employment. A large driving force behind this employment growth is the construction industry, which added over 500,000 new jobs in 2014.
