US job growth starts to slow

World Business Report

Available for over a year

The US economy added 235,000 jobs in August, compared with 1.05 million in July. We hear how this is affecting businesses on a local level from Stephen Griffin, CEO of the Finger Lakes Economic Development Centre in upstate New York. Also in the programme, our reporter Elizabeth Hotson investigates the world of online reviews, and how to tell a genuine rating from a fake. And the Dutch Grand Prix returns this weekend after 36 years. The BBC’s Matthew Kenyon goes to Zandvoort to see why the F1 race is restarting after all these years. (Image: A 'Now Hiring' sign.
