Establishment Size

Review statewide and county employment data by employer size.

Establishment size data provide a count of establishments and their size class based on their number of employees, for each Washington industry and for each county. Every year, we tabulate the number of establishments operating in Washington state and sort them by size. We provide counts by industry sector and subsector for each county. The data are screened to protect confidentiality.

What is the data source?

We use first quarter data from the Quarterly Census of Employment and Wages (QCEW), Enhanced Quarterly Unemployment Insurance file to build the establishment size dataset.
