Introduction & Summary
Understanding Growth and Change
Among the Major Components of Employment:
Wage and Salary Employment,
Nonfarm Proprietors' Employment
and Farm Proprietors' Employment
Unless there is a sound understanding of the make-up of local employment, and an awareness of how each of the components have grown or declined in relative importance over time, one can not gauge or appreciate the underlying character or complexion of growth and change of the local economy. This RI-REAP module is for tracking and analyzing the changing composition of employment for the regions, MSAs, and 5 Rhode Island counties.
