Each month, the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) releases national and state-level data on U.S. employment, which provide useful information about the state of the labor market and progress toward building back better.
To highlight key trends in the monthly data, the Joint Economic Committee compiles state-by-state fact sheets for all 50 states and the District of Columbia.
The most recent state-level data, which cover the month of December, were released on January 25, 2022. The latest national data were released on January 7, 2022.
Fact sheets will be updated next on March 15, 2022, following the BLS release of 2021 state employment data on March 14. See last month's data here.
