What is LED? • Longitudinal Employer-Household Dynamics (LEHD) • Program within the U.S. Census Bureau • Local Employment Dynamics (LED) • Partnership between the states and Census • Creates new information about the labor market • Low cost • No additional respondent burden • Protects confidentiality

  3. How To Describe LED? • “A Census – State Partnership” The folks at LEHD • “Sexy” OnTheMap user during a Webinar • “LED is a thousand answers looking for a thousand questions” Tom Tveidt of SYNEVA Economics LLC

  6. How It Works… • States provide quarterly administrative data • Employer locations, number of employees, payroll • Quarterly Census of Employment and Wages (QCEW) • Individual earnings and employers • Unemployment Insurance “Wage File” • LEHD matches state employment data with demographic (age & gender) and residency information about individual workers • Social Security Administration records

  9. The FUZZ(data police) • LED maintains confidentiality about workers and employers • They “fuzz” some data to ensure confidentiality • Unsure how the folks at LEHD do this • This leads to some hesitation for some new users • Fuzz information available for QWI

  10. Quarterly Workforce Indicators (QWI) • Available from the Cornell VirtualRDC website http://www.vrdc.cornell.edu/news/ • 30 employment and earnings indicators • Year – Oregon goes back to 1991 • Quarter – Partial information for 2q2008 • Gender – male, female, or both • Age – 14-99, 14-18, 19-21, 22-24, 25-34, 35-44, 45-54, 55-64, 65-99 • Geography – County and Metro and Micro Areas • Industry – 4-digit NAICS level

  11. Types of Fuzz Codes

  25. Industry FocusExample

  26. Older Worker Profiles • LEHD produces this series of reports for 30 states • The Geographic Distribution and Characteristics of Older Workers: 2004 • The data is “old” – 2004 when we now have 2007 • “Easily” replicable

  27. Portion of County Workforce Age 55 and Older 2007 Census LEHD data 15.0% to 18.0% 18.1% to 21.1% 21.2% to 24.2% 33.5% Older Worker Profiles

  28. Average Monthly EarningsAge 55 and Older

  31. What Can LED Tell Us About the Recession? • Not much – yet • Are Baby Boomers retiring? • Previous recession: • Stable separations went down while stable hires went up • Largest drop off was in workers 55-64 • Youth employment came back for girls after recession, but not for boys
