Status
Employment By Industry

Increasing industry diversification will increase the resilience of the local economy to macroeconomic trends, reducing the impacts of a recession and increasing the region’s ability to capitalize on a range of opportunities during periods of economic growth. Employment numbers by industry show the diversification and health of each sector of the economy, identifying which industries are hiring more workers and which industries are laying more workers off. This creates an understanding of which industries in the Tahoe Basin are consolidating and expanding, and how policies and investments aimed at supporting specific industries are performing.

This indicator measures the number of employees per industry in the Tahoe Basin. Employment information is collected through the US Census American Community Survey (ACS). Employment numbers include any full and part-time paid employee who are on a business’ payroll at some point during the ACS reporting period.
