State Employment and Unemployment Archived News Releases

Archived News Releases | State Employment and Unemployment

The State Employment and Unemployment news release presents data from the Local Area Unemployment Statistics and State and Metro Area Employment, Hours, & Earnings programs.

Effective with the January 2017 publication on Monday, March 13, 2017, this news release was renamed "State Employment and Unemployment." The Regional Unemployment section of the summary was omitted, as were the previous table 1 and table 2. The state data tables were renumbered 1 through 4 accordingly. The purpose of these changes was to focus the analysis on the geography that is most relevant to data users and for which both household and payroll estimates are produced. Civilian labor force and unemployment data for the four census regions and nine geographic divisions will continue to be available in the BLS database and updated shortly after each release is published.

Caution

Data in archived news releases may have been revised in subsequent releases. The latest data, including any revisions, may be obtained from the databases accessible on the program homepages:
