About Us
The Kentucky Office of Employment and Training is part of the Department for Workforce Investment. The work of our department falls into three broad areas.

	Job Services is a labor exchange that matches available workers with employers who need their skills and experience. Work search and referrals may be conducted locally, statewide and nationally.
	Unemployment Insurance provides short term benefits for those who are unemployed through no fault of their own.
	Labor Market Information contains a wide range of statistical data on employment and wage patterns. It is available locally, statewide and nationally to both businesses and job seekers.
