About us

ESD is an active partner in the WorkSource system, working with Workforce Development Councils, state agencies, community and technical colleges, school districts, business, labor and non-profits to connect employers with qualified job seekers. Employment Security also administers Washington’s unemployment insurance system, collecting unemployment taxes from employers and providing unemployment benefits to workers who've lost their jobs through no fault of their own. Unemployment benefits keep our state’s economic engine moving by replacing a small portion of lost wages to laid-off workers. ESD collects, analyzes and disseminates job-related data about Washington and its regions and communities. The department publishes numerous reports, including monthly unemployment and job growth/loss announcements, twice-a-year job vacancy surveys, average wage information, job benefits reports, etc. An exhaustive array of information is available online at esd.wa.gov/labormarketinfo. Equal Opportunity information: Employment Security and the WorkSource system are equal opportunity employers/programs. Auxiliary aids and services are available upon request to individuals with disabilities. Language assistance services for limited English proficient individuals are available free of charge.
