California has 885,300 construction workers but was down 11,600 jobs in March, according to Associated General Contractors of America. That was the third-largest statewide drop since 2010 and the No. 1 drop nationally.
Meanwhile, construction was roughly 1-in-9 lost jobs statewide in March, according to the report, which noted that the state officially lost 99,500 jobs in March, the worst drop in the nation.
