The January jobs report, scheduled for release on Friday, is now set to be delayed by the partial government shutdown, the Labor Department said.

The Bureau of Labor Statistics' website notes the page is "currently not being updated due to the suspension of federal government services," adding that "updates to the site will start again when the federal government resumes operations."

The government's release calendar has not been updated, but January data was initially scheduled for release Feb. 6 at 8:30 a.m. ET.

"The release will be rescheduled upon the resumption of government funding," Emily Liddel, BLS associate commissioner for publications and special studies, said in a statement.

"Due to the partial federal government shutdown, the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) will suspend data collection, processing, and dissemination. The Job Openings and Labor Turnover Survey release for December 2025, Metropolitan Area Employment and Unemployment release for December 2025, and the Employment Situation release for January 2026 will be rescheduled upon the resumption of government funding."
