Business Employment Dynamics (BED)

BED data is a product of a federal-state cooperative program known as the Quarterly Census of Employment and Wages (QCEW).

BED data measures the net change in employment from 1992 forward. It highlights the number and rates of gross jobs gained at opening and expanding establishments, as well as the number and rates of gross jobs lost by closing and contracting establishments.

For additional information, visit the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics BED. You can also create your own customized tables.
