The report contains thirteen (13) performance metrics for City's workforce development programs. Each metric can be breakdown by three demographic types (gender, race/ethnicity, and age group) and the program target population (e.g., youth and young adults, NYCHA communities) as well. This report is a key output of an integrated data system that collects, integrates, and generates disaggregated data by Mayor's Office for Economic Opportunity (NYC Opportunity). Currently, the report is generated by the integrated database incorporating data from 18 workforce development programs managed by 5 City agencies. There has been no single "workforce development system" in the City of New York. Instead, many discrete public agencies directly manage or fund local partners to deliver a range of different services, sometimes tailored to specific populations. As a result, program data have historically been fragmented as well, making it challenging to develop insights based on a comprehensive picture. To overcome it, NYC Opportunity collects data from 5 City agencies and builds the integrated database, and it begins to build a complete picture of how participants move through the system onto a career pathway. Each row represents a count of unique individuals for a specific performance metric, program target population, a specific demographic group, and a specific period. For example, if the Metric Value is 2000 with Clients Served (Metric Name), NYCHA Communities (Program Target Population), Asian (Subgroup), and 2019 (Period), you can say that "In 2019, 2,000 Asian individuals participated programs targeting NYCHA communities.

This dataset uses seasonally adjusted data from the US Bureau of Labor Statistics to present information on Maryland's labor force participation rate, employment rate, and unemployment rate.

This data asset was created in response to House Report 117-401, which stated, "The Committee directs the USAID Administrator, in consultation with the Director of the Office of Personnel Management and the Director of the Office of Management and Budget, to submit a report to the appropriate congressional committees, not later than 180 days after enactment of this Act, on USAID's workforce data that includes disaggregated demographic data and other information regarding the diversity of the workforce of USAID. Such report shall include the following data to the maximum extent practicable and permissible by law: 1) demographic data of USAID workforce disaggregated by grade or grade-equivalent; 2) assessment of agency compliance with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission Management Directive 715; and 3) data on the overall number of individuals who are part of the workforce, including all U.S. Direct Hires, personnel under personal services contracts, and Locally Employed staff at USAID. The report shall also be published on a publicly available website of USAID in a searchable database format." This data asset fulfills the final part of this requirement, to publish the data in a searchable database format. The data are compiled from USAID's 2021 MD-715 report, available at https://www.usaid.gov/who-we-are/organization/independent-offices/office-civil-rights/md-715-reports. The original data source is the system National Finance Center Insight owned by the Treasury Department. This dataset reports demographic data for the USAID workforce for fiscal year 2021.

Dataset, GDB, and Online Map created by Renee Haley, NMCDC, May 2023 DATA ACQUISITION PROCESS

Scope and purpose of project: New Mexico is struggling to maintain its healthcare workforce, particularly in Rural areas. This project was undertaken with the intent of looking at flows of healthcare workers into and out of New Mexico at the most granular geographic level possible. This dataset, in combination with others (such as housing cost and availability data) may help us understand where our healthcare workforce is relocating and why.

The most relevant and detailed data on workforce indicators in the United States is housed by the Census Bureau's Longitudinal Employer-Household Dynamics, LEHD, System. Information on this system is available here:

https://lehd.ces.census.gov/

The Job-to-Job flows explorer within this system was used to download the data. Information on the J2J explorer can ve found here:

https://j2jexplorer.ces.census.gov/explore.html#1432012

The dataset was built from data queried with the LED Extraction Tool, which allows for the query of more intersectional and detailed data than the explorer. This is a link to the LED extraction tool:

https://ledextract.ces.census.gov/

The geographies used are US Metro areas as determined by the Census, (N=389). The shapefile is named lehd_shp_gb.zip, and can be downloaded under this section of the following webpage: 5.5. Job-to-Job Flow Geographies, 5.5.1. Metropolitan (Complete). A link to the download site is available below:

https://lehd.ces.census.gov/data/schema/j2j_latest/lehd_shapefiles.html

DATA CLEANING PROCESS

This dataset was built from 8 non intersectional datasets downloaded from the LED Extraction Tool.

Separate datasets were downloaded in order to obtain detailed information on the race, ethnicity, and educational attainment levels of healthcare workers and where they are migrating.

Datasets included information for the four separate quarters of 2021. It was not possible to download annual data, only quarterly. Quarterly data was summed in a later step to derive annual totals for 2021.

4 datasets for healthcare workers moving OUT OF New Mexico, with details on race, ethnicity, and educational attainment, were downloaded. 1 contained information on educational attainment, 2 contained information on 7 racial categories identifying as non- Hispanic, 3 contained information on those same 7 categories also identifying as Hispanic, and 4 contained information for workers identifying as white and Hispanic.

4 datasets for healthcare worker moving INTO New Mexico, with details on race, ethnicity, and educational attainment, were downloaded with the same details outlined above.

Each dataset was cleaned according to Data Template which kept key attributes and discarded excess information. Within each dataset, the J2J Indicators reflecting 6 different types of job migration were totaled in order to simplify analysis, as this information was not needed in detail.

After cleaning, each set of 4 datasets for workers moving INTO New Mexico were joined. The process was repeated for workers moving OUT OF New Mexico. This resulted 2 main datasets.

These 2 main datasets still listed all of the variables by each quarter of 2021. Because of this the data was split in JMP, so that attributes of educational attainment, race and ethnicity, of workers migrating by quarter were moved from rows to columns. After this, summary columns for the year of 2021 were derived. This resulted in totals columns for workers identifying as: 6 separate races and all ethnicities, all races and Hispanic, white-Hispanic, and workers of 6 different education levels, reflecting how many workers of each indicator migrated to and from metro areas in New Mexico in 2021.

The data split transposed duplicate rows reflecting differing worker attributes within the same metro area, resulting in one row for each metro area and reflecting the attributes in columns, thus resulting in a mappable dataset.

The 2 datasets were joined (on Metro Area) resulting in one master file containing information on healthcare workers entering and leaving New Mexico.

Rows (N=389) reflect all of the metro areas across the US, and each state. Rows include the 5 metro areas within New Mexico, and New Mexico State.

Columns (N=99) contain information on worker race, ethnicity and educational attainment, specific to each metro area in New Mexico.

78 of these rows reflect workers of specific attributes moving OUT OF the 5 specific Metro Areas in New Mexico and totals for NM State. This level of detail is intended for analyzing who is leaving what area of New Mexico, where they are going to, and why.

13 Columns reflect each worker attribute for healthcare workers moving INTO New Mexico by race, ethnicity and education level. Because all 5 metro areas and New Mexico state are contained in the rows, this information for incoming workers is available by metro area and at the state level - there is less possability for mapping these attributes since it was not realistic or possible to create a dataset reflecting all of these variables for every healthcare worker from every metro area in the US also coming into New Mexico (that dataset would have over 1,000 columns and be unmappable). Therefore this dataset is easier to utilize in looking at why workers are leaving the state but also includes detailed information on who is coming in.

The remaining 8 columns contain geographic information.

GIS AND MAPPING PROCESS

The master file was opened in Arc GIS Pro and the Shapefile of US Metro Areas was also imported

The excel file was joined to the shapefile by Metro Area Name as they matched exactly

The resulting layer was exported as a GDB in order to retain null values which would turn to zeros if exported as a shapefile.

This GDB was uploaded to Arc GIS Online, Aliases were inserted as column header names, and the layer was visualized as desired.

SYSTEMS USED

MS Excel was used for data cleaning, summing NM state totals, and summing quarterly to annual data.

JMP was used to transpose, join, and split data.

ARC GIS Desktop was used to create the shapefile uploaded to NMCDC's online platform.
