Summary:

"Washington, D.C. — A new report from the Center for American Progress examines how to improve the labor market for job seekers, employers, and training programs through the adoption and use of an open data standard—consistent, machine-readable formats for how information is published online.​ The report makes the case that the labor market would benefit from a collaborative data governance strategy that mitigates the influence of data monopolies—in which a few companies have unparalleled access to job postings—and that enables a more seamless exchange of high-quality real-time data. It calls for labor market stakeholders to reach consensus on an open data standard for how job listings are posted to the web—and outlines the key role the public sector could play in setting such standards."
