    Workforce data in action
    (Project on Workforce at Harvard, 2022) Sanchez, Michael; Seibel, Sherry
    The United States Department of Labor (DOL) is responsible for policy recommendations, partitioning government funds to grant awardees, and overseeing the wellbeing of our nation’s workers. It utilizes government research databases such as the Clearinghouse for Labor Evaluation and Research and Health and Human Services’ Pathways to Work Clearinghouse to aid in these processes. However, these research resources are scattered and related findings not well chronicled. Locating relevant data is time consuming and cumbersome. To mitigate this issue, the Project on Workforce Summer Fellows designed a prototype for an internal, centralized dashboard containing key insights from studies in five government research databases and one non-profit database. Furthermore, we aggregated findings on high priority initiatives including reentry, career pathways, sector strategies, and dislocated workers. The intended primary users are the Department of Labor’s Employee and Training Administration and outside consultants. The tool enhances the evidence finding process and help advance pertinent initiatives. This report outlines the dashboard design process, tool highlights, and describes intervention insights gleaned from initial use of the prototype.
