The civilian labor force includes all persons aged 16 and older who are employed and unemployed; in other words, either working or actively looking for work. Unemployed persons count only those who have actively sought a job within the last four weeks. People waiting to start a new job who have not actively sought a job in the last four weeks are not counted as employed or unemployed; they are considered to be out of the labor force. For the unemployed, industry is based on the last job they held; this may or may not reflect their current area of job search. Media contact: BTSNews@dot.gov or 1-800-853-1351.
