Be informed as you make decisions about investing in your business, hiring new workers, or finding new business opportunities. The public workforce system has a wealth of workforce information that is easy to access and freely available.

Through the on-line resources of the U.S. Department of Labor, and at your local American Job Center, you can find valuable reports and projections to help you plan.

In addition, specialists at American Job Centers, Workforce Development Board, and state workforce agencies can help businesses find even more information, interpret trends, and analyze workforce conditions.
