Labor Study
The analysis of the Central Texas labor force leads to several conclusions: the area has a highly skilled and very well-educated labor pool; the majority of unemployed will work for under $20 per hour; and has a good supply of available part-time and shift labor.
The rationale for this conclusion is discussed throughout the 2007 Labor Study. The data collected in the surveys displays many characteristics of the work force (defined as anyone willing and able to work; and between the ages of 16 and 75).
