Local Employment Dynamics

The LED partnership is the cornerstone of a program designed to develop new information about local labor market conditions at low cost, with no added respondent burden, and with the same confidentiality protections afforded census and survey data. This partnership between state labor market information agencies and the Census Bureau supplies new measures—the Quarterly Workforce Indicators (QWI)—on labor markets that:

• Is Local at the state, county and sub county level.
• Supplies statistics on Employment, job creation, turnover, and earnings by industry, age and sex.
• Provides Dynamic information on the rapidly changing economy.
