By Alexander S. Corey, Las Vegas Review-Journal
In the first quarter of 2016, small-business employment in Nevada reached an all-time high, according to the Nevada Department of Employment, Training, and Rehabilitation.
In Nevada, companies with fewer than 100 employees added 13,600 jobs year-over-year in the first quarter of 2016, according to the employment department.
In the fourth quarter of 2015, employment in small businesses fell by 6,300 due to the usual slowdown following the holiday season, the employment department reported.
