ORS - Final Second Wave Data Set

  • 1.  ORS - Final Second Wave Data Set

    Posted 02-08-2024 10:52

    Big day today. The ORS program released its final 5-year "Second Wave" data set (spreadsheet) available here: https://www.bls.gov/web/ors/ors-complete-dataset.xlsx

    Released less than 45 minutes ago, my initial cut, bottom line analysis shows that some data is reported for 480 unique civilian 6-digit SOC groups. This covers 56.6% of all the 848 civilian SOC groups. So this is disappointing to me that more SOC groups were not reported. [The 4th year data set reported some date for 426 unique SOC groups.] However, I expect that this covers about 90% of all employment, with the remaining 368 SOC groups with no reported ORS data only accounting for about 10% of the labor force.

    Will have more information as my analysis continues and we begin the dissection of this further and provide more updates about this latest data set.
