The State of Working Wisconsin

The State of Working Wisconsin is a biennial report, produced by COWS, that offers a comprehensive review of the status of jobs and workers in Wisconsin. On alternate years, we produce a short update report instead of the full report. The State of Working Wisconsin is filled with data and analysis of jobs, wages, poverty, and income, as well as an account of economic inequality in the state.

Labor Day 2009 continues to offer grim news for the state's workers. Download The State of Working Wisconsin - Update 2009 by clicking the link below.
