Employment
Non-farm employment measures the total employment in the US (public and private) leveraging individual level data collected from online professional profiles. The monthly change in this total employment is a proxy for number of jobs added in the economy during the month. In October, the US economy lost 9 thousand jobs, predominantly driven by employment losses in the government sector.
View releaseHiring and Attrition
Hiring and attrition rates continued their downward trend, reflecting a slowdown in labor market dynamism. In October, the annualized hiring rate stood at roughly 25%, down from levels consistently above 30% during the 2021–2022 hiring boom. Attrition rates also declined, suggesting workers are increasingly staying in their jobs as opportunities to switch have diminished. The slowdown in both hiring and attrition points to a cooler labor market, where fewer firms are expanding headcount and job seekers face limited openings.
View releaseJob Openings
Job postings declined by 1.9% month over month in October, marking another month of softening labor demand. The largest declines were seen in Professional and Business Services, Education and Health Services, and Construction—sectors that had previously driven employment growth. Transportation and Warehousing was the only major sector to post a meaningful increase in openings.
View releaseSalaries
Salaries from new job postings ticked up slightly in October, by 0.7% compared to September 2025. The occupations driving the increase in salaries this month are transportation related, specifically salaries for truck drivers. Salaries in new job postings for health related jobs like medical providers also rose in October.
View releaseMass-layoff Notices
Layoffs data are based on mass layoff events in the WARN notices. The WARN act requires businesses with 100 or more full-time workers must issue advance layoff notices if they plan to lay off at least 50 employees. The notices should be handed to employees and submitted to the Department of Labor 60 days in advance. The number of employees notified with layoffs has declined in September, and so is the number of employees laid off based on previous notices.

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.
