  - The unemployment and labor force numbers (LAUS data) we published on our website and utilized during the press conference on March 9, 2023 when comparing unemployment and labor force participation rates now to those immediately pre-pandemic used old, unrevised data for January 2018 through December 2021. We corrected this information in our LAUS data tool late on March 13, 2023. This error did not affect the January 2023 unemployment rate, labor force participation rate or other January 2023 employment data shared during the press conference. If you have questions about what these corrections mean for your reporting, please contact Rita Beatty at Rita.Beatty@state.mn.us.
