How The Data Is Compiled

Employer Database

Used by workforce development agencies across the country to help job seekers find jobs.

The Employer Database, designed by the U.S. Department of Labor, is the gateway to every U.S. employer. Instead of being one-step behind the printed want ads, we suggest you wade through potential employers and tailor the lists of possible employers to fit your needs, your city, and your goals — and do it in seconds.

Nationwide, thousands of job centers, government agencies, and universities already use this unique tool every day to communicate with businesses and executives, research local and national job markets, and locate jobs within their own communities.
