Featured Reports and Tools

Alabama’s HWOL

The Help Wanted Online Data Series™ fills a critical gap in the current U.S. economic indicators by providing timely monthly measures of labor demand (advertised vacancies) at the national, regional, State and metropolitan area levels. These monthly measures are comparable in timing and geographic detail to the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) monthly measures of labor supply (unemployment).

Nebraska’s VIZioN LMI

VIZioN lmi provides interactive data in maps, charts and other unique visualizations detailing data such as worker flows in-and-out of Nebraska, commuting patterns, and childcare availability.
