What Is The Value Of An Industry Sector Analysis?

• Provides baseline regional economic information
  necessary for development of a workforce or
  economic development strategy
• Existing sources of industry employment
• Recent trends in industry jobs
• Future forecasts of demand by industry sector
• An industry sector analysis is a first step
  needed to address further related information
  needs such as
• Key regional occupations
• High wage high growth occupations
• Skill sets

5
How Can the DLEG Industry Sector Profiles Be Used?

• Will help answer a number of questions on your
  regional labor market
• How do local job trends compare with Michigan and
  U.S. patterns?
• What broad sectors contribute an unusually high
  share of regional jobs?
• What are the key local core sectors and what has
  been the recent job and wage performance in those
  sectors?
• What industries have added and lost jobs locally?
• What are the regional developing and
  competitive-advantage industries?

The DLEG Industry Sector Profiles

• Present a regional perspective, although some
  county detail shown visually via mapping and
  bulleted text
• Provide industry data from the Quarterly Census
  of Employment Wages (QCEW) this is
  administrative tax data from 98 percent of
  employers
• This or any other source of statistical data you
  use should be validated where possible with
  qualitative information from local employers.
• Much of the data analysis is from 2nd Quarter
  2004 to 2nd Quarter 2006
• Data reflects private sector jobs only
