Workforce New York

Welcome to the Department of Labor’s Workforce New York web site!  New York State has a vision of a highly skilled workforce, prepared by a system that readily connects businesses and job seekers and fosters economic growth.  The Division of Employment and Workforce Solutions oversees the implementation and development of New York 's workforce development system and administers programs that have businesses and job seekers as primary customers.
