Data Presentation
Are estimates available by industry?
Yes, estimates are available by industry based on the
North American Industry
Classification System (NAICS).
Unadjusted counts and rates for job openings, hires, total separations,
quits, layoffs and discharges, and other separations are published for the
following supersectors and select sectors: mining and logging; construction;
manufacturing; durable goods manufacturing; nondurable goods manufacturing;
trade, transportation, and utilities; wholesale trade; retail trade;
transportation, warehousing, and utilities; information; financial activities;
finance and insurance; real estate and rental and leasing; professional and
business services; education and health services; educational services;
health care and social assistance; leisure and hospitality; arts,
entertainment, and recreation; accommodation and food services; other services;
government; federal government; state and local government; state and local
government education; and state and local government, excluding education.
Seasonally adjusted data are available for all series. For some series,
no regular seasonal movements could be identified; therefore, identical numbers
appear for the unadjusted and seasonally adjusted series.
Are estimates available by region?
Yes, unadjusted and seasonally adjusted estimates are published by four geographic regions
for job openings, hires, total separations, quits, layoffs and discharges, and other separations.
States (including the District of Columbia) that comprise the various regions are:
Northeast: Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New
Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, and

Note: The sample size is not large enough to support
estimates for individual States or metropolitan areas.
Are estimates available by occupation?
No, JOLTS does not collect information by occupation. Occupational
information is collected as part of the Current Population Survey and
the Occupational Employment Statistics program.
Are estimates available by size class?
JOLTS has two experimental series of size class estimates, one based on firm size and one
based on establishment size. Both series cover the total private sector and start with
December 2000. The firm-based size class estimates were published for the first time in
September 2017 and will be updated after receiving feedback from data users. The data and
methodology can be obtained from the firm size class page.
The establishment-based size class estimates have been produced since 2010 and are updated periodically,
as resources permit. The methodology for these data can be obtained from the
establishment size class page. To obtain the establishment
size class data, please contact JOLTS by e-mail or
call the information line at (202) 691-5870.
Can I get a list of companies in the sample?
No, data are collected under a pledge of confidentiality. BLS cannot
disclose the names of survey participants.
