-g
--group Only print the group id of each job
-h

-l

On systems that supports this feature, jobs will print the CPU usage of each job since the last command was executed. The CPU usage is expressed as a percentage of full CPU activity. Note that on multiprocessor systems, the total activity can be more than 100%.
This is a BASH shell builtin, not all systems support all the options above, to display your local syntax type: help jobs
