The Department of Labor’s Office of Research recognizes the difficulties this kind of change can bring. 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. We hope Connecticut’s Reemployment Portal connects you with helpful information as well as excellent opportunities. |

Connecticut's Workforce Employment Dynamics
The Workforce Employment Dynamics program is 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. For example, WED data show the age of the workforce in each of the state’s industries, identifying those with the greatest numbers of workers
approaching retirement and, therefore, the greatest worker replacement needs. These data also identify gender differences in wages earned, progression in wages earned by age, and regional variations in workforce composition. |

in education and training programs by program planners and administrators, as well as by individuals considering
career options. |
