Comparable LCA fiscal years

Only employers with >=5 disclosed filings in FY2024 enter the national gain/loss tables. Petition counts are LCA disclosures, not workers hired.

What changed between the two DOL LCA fiscal years

The Department of Labor publishes Labor Condition Application disclosures by fiscal year. PlainEmployers keeps FY2024 and FY2025 petition rows in employer_salaries, then joins the same employer identity across both years. The delta is arithmetic on those stored totals - not an estimate, not a seasonal adjustment, and not a claim about why volume moved.

Among the 3,609 comparable employers in this cut, 1,000 rose, 2,416 fell, and 193 were unchanged. A downloadable CSV of the full comparable set is linked below for reuse.
