Welcome to the CT Department of Labor’s website – your one-stop online information
center for workforce services and programs. There is a wealth of
information here and we trust that you will find our website
informative and easy to use. We post new information daily to keep
our Internet site fresh and relevant, and we have increased our
technology to give our customers many online options to conduct
their business conveniently and with the utmost security.
For example, filers for unemployment insurance benefits have found
our “Unemployment Benefits On-Line” function fast and easy to use.
Many Connecticut employers are also
finding it more convenient to use our site to file their
quarterly UI payments.
Most of our publications can also be found online. Other features
include the ability to research the latest labor force trends,
register for our free electronic job bank, make an appointment with
a veteran’s representative, or
request a subject expert to speak with your group or organization.
For
those preferring a more personal approach, jobseekers are welcome to
visit any one of our local
CTWorks Career
Centers for assistance with job search strategies,
to meet with a career counselor, or attend employment workshops that
include interviewing skills and
résumé assistance. For employers, our business service specialists will work
one-on-one with companies seeking recruitment assistance or seeking training
assistance and our
CONN-OSHA professionals can provide free consultations to help ensure a safe
workplace for your employees.
As an agency, we take our
responsibilities seriously and strive to provide “opportunity, guidance and
support” to every individual and employer
seeking our assistance. We are always
looking at new and innovative ways to improve our service to the residents
of this state and should you have any
suggestions or comments,
please email us. We
look forward to hearing from you and appreciate your feedback.
Thank
you,
Sharon Palmer, Commissioner
