This market resolves YES if the initial BLS Employment Situation release for June 2026 reports a civilian labor force participation rate of at least 62.0 percent, seasonally adjusted. Use the household-survey civilian labor force participation rate for June 2026 from the first BLS Employment Situation release. A value of 62.0% or higher resolves YES. A value of 61.9% or lower resolves NO. Do not use total nonfarm payroll employment, the U-3 unemployment rate, U-6, employment-population ratio, metro-area or state participation rates, demographic subseries, non-seasonally-adjusted values, forecast consensus, or later revisions unless BLS corrects the initial June 2026 release before resolution. If the June 2026 Employment Situation release is delayed, wait for the first BLS release containing the June 2026 labor force participation rate unless there is no such release by July 9, 2026, in which case resolve N/A.
