Employment

Idaho has a very diverse economy. While the traditional resource-based industries of agriculture, forest products, and mining continue to contribute to the economy, high-tech, tourism, retail trade, healthcare, business, and information services are growth sectors.

For employment opportunities in both the public and private sectors, contact the Idaho Department of Labor at 317 W. Main Street, Boise, ID, 83735, or any of the 24 local offices throughout the state. Addresses and phone numbers of these offices are in the directory on the Idaho Department of Labor website at http://labor.idaho.gov.

For detailed and up-to-date labor market information, visit the LMI section of the Department of Labor website.
