Key Concepts

What does the term "long-term projections" mean? LMI (Labor Market Information) long-term projections refers to estimates of future employment changes in specific industries, typically over a 10-year period. They forecast things like the number of jobs, job openings, and growth rates, but they do not account for major economic shocks.

What does "area distribution" mean in terms of industry employment? This refers to the distribution showing where jobs and workers are concentrated, providing insights into supply and demand, wages, and job growth in specific areas.
