Employers - Labor Market Info

Sound business decisions depend upon good information. Let Jobs ETC guide you through demographic and labor data that can aid your decision-making. 

What Should I Pay My Employees (Occupational Wage Survey publications) – This publication provides wages for specific occupations; both locally and statewide.  Employers are able to see what the current and projected wages are when making hiring and other personnel decisions. This information is available on line at http://fred.labormarketinfo.com

Where Will Businesses Like Mine be in the Future (Industry and Occupational Projections publications) – Occupational projections can be found through 2008 for each area within the state as well as statewide.  Employers can see the potential growth or decline of specifics occupations; valuable information when planning for today’s and tomorrow’s workforce.  This information is available both in print and on-line at http://www.labormarketinfo.com/oes-proj/oes.htm and is also available through the FRED system.

Occupational Network (O*NET) - O*NET allows employers to determine which skills are necessary for particular jobs.  They can then use this information to identify skill gaps in their workforce or potential areas for skills training/upgrade.  Employers can also use the information in O*NET to write want ads, position descriptions and the like.  O*NET can be found at http://online.onetcenter.org/.

Florida’s Research and Economic Database (FRED) – This interactive database creates an on-line system containing much of the data used by job seekers and employers.  Employers can see how their industry compares with their peers; locally and statewide.  Employers can also look at wages, occupation projections and more.  Most of the LMI used by an employer can be found in FRED.  http://fred.labormarketinfo.com/.
