Job Openings and Labor Turnover Survey


Job Openings and Labor Turnover Survey

A survey published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics each month on the state of the American job market. It collects and disseminates data on job openings, recruitment activity, hires and layoffs, and other criteria in several different sectors. JOLTS are used along with the Help Wanted Index to show whether the number of jobs is growing or shrinking at a given time.
