| Labor Market Information for Businesses - Overview |
Last Updated: March 24, 2011 |
 |
| The Connecticut Department of Labor and its Office of Research
offer many valuable services for businesses, including the production of Labor Market Information.
LMI includes professionally compiled and analyzed economic and labor market data. For businesses, this information is useful in product marketing, new location studies, wage analyses,
and economic research. It is helpful in making better-informed decisions on expansion, investment, hiring,
and other aspects of business management. |
|
| The Office of Research, in cooperation with the Department of
Social Services, Child Support Enforcement Unit, is also responsible for collecting data on newly hired employees through the New Hire Reporting Program. |
|
| Our LMI Publications
page, where you will see the titles of all our publications, is another resource to support your plan. You can read these publications at our centers or order them for your continued use. They contain data (tables or charts
along with text) which have been collected, analyzed, and organized especially for the convenience of our readers.
Also, you can find a complete listing of available data on our LMI Data page.
The Office of Research occasionally undertakes special studies and projects of importance to the State on topics
relevant to the labor market, workforce, and the workforce development system.
See Occasional Papers & Reports
for a complete listing. |

- Connecticut's Reemployment Portal!
linking skills and talents to new occupations and industries. We developed Connecticut’s Reemployment
Portal to inform and prepare you to take charge of your career. Connecticut’s Reemployment Portal displays
occupations with similar characteristics such as knowledge areas, tools and technology, and general work
activities of your selected occupation. Career development is a lifelong, ongoing process.
- Connecticut Businesses Scorecard
The health of the business sector will affect, among other things, the ability of firms to hire workers and, particularly in regard to businesses selling their goods and services outside the State, the ability to increase
the State’s income through exports.
- Workforce Employment Dynamics
an innovative program initiated by the Office of Research. Its purpose is to provide information on the
characteristics of Connecticut’s jobholders, including detailed breakdowns by age, gender, industry, geographic
region and wages earned. WED data will be useful for any initiative that relies on an understanding of the labor
market, but can be especially valuable for workforce development policy formulation and planning.
