Note that we will not be covering unemployment rate and labor force participation rate. All metrics will be available by occupation (SOC 2-digit), sector (NAICS 2-digit), and state.

About RPLS
Revelio Public Labor Statistics (RPLS) is a freely available macroeconomic labor market dataset built from 100+ million U.S. profiles to provide a clear, transparent view of workforce dynamics. It follows a format similar to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) and is designed to be used alongside it, tracking employment levels, wages, and job transitions at a scale that traditional surveys cannot, offering a continuous picture of the labor market. Our hope is that RPLS helps close the growing information gap and delivers unbiased and trustworthy data on the U.S. workforce for policymakers, businesses, and the public.
