Follow the instructions below to find nonfarm wage and salaried worker data in the virtual LMI data system.

If you need additional assistance or would like us to provide the data you need, please contact us.

Visit the virtual labor market data system, then follow these steps:

Please note: The system may react slowly when selecting multiple areas or industries, and some computers may time out before the data has been successfully retrieved, especially if you have selected multiple time periods as well.
