DESCRIPTION

Pull wage, employment level, and growth data straight from the Bureau of Labor Statistics Public Data API by series ID, covering formats like OEWS occupational wages (OEUM...), local-area unemployment (LAU...), and CES employment series. It's a federal, public, free source, and an optional BLS_API_KEY raises the rate limit for heavier lookups. Send series_ids (up to 25 per request) plus an optional start_year and end_year; get back per-series data points with year, period, value, footnotes, and optional net/percent-change calculations. Use it as a BLS wage data API, occupational employment lookup, or labor statistics tool for wage benchmarking, HR market research, or macroeconomic dashboards.
