After multiple years of development and extensive review of the way we link NAICS industries to each DOT occupation, we are pleased to announce immediate availability of Job Browser Pro PC – Version 1.7.4.1 and Job Browser Pro Web!! JBP Web version includes all the worker trait features of OccuBrowseWeb!

Version 1.7.4.1 was released 5/26/2022 to better align the PC version DOT estimates with the web-based estimates. Let us know of any significant discrepancies you might notice.


Improvements and New Features in job browser pro PC - Version 1.7.4.1

  • DOT Estimate page now includes CBP hyperlink to the NAICS Industry Analyzer, which includes: County Business Patterns (CBP), Current Employment Statistics (CES), Display of products produced in an industry, Occupational Staffing Pattern (from OES data) for each NAICS, with display of the DOTs associated with the SOCs reported by employers in that NAICS

Job Browser Pro PC Version 1.7.4 is a new installation, in a new default folder. There is a new icon (different color - orange). Because the extensive research we have done has enabled estimation of employment at a weighted average of 88.6% for each SOC/OES group, we no longer allow customers to immediately modify NAICS industries for a DOT occupation. We do allow customers to submit suggestions, which we will review and incorporate into a subsequent update as appropriate. We want to prevent double counting and inappropriate NAICS, so we will study each submitted suggestion in the context of the impact of that suggestion on the entire SOC/OES Group.

We will be publishing some additional documentation soon on just all of what we have been busy doing in this lengthy research effort!

Existing customers: Upgrade to Version 1.7.4.1 available through the normal update process for paid customers current on the Internet Update Service. We look forward to your comments!
