Employ Georgia online labor exchange: Georgia Department of Labor
The EmployGeorgia initiative was initiated by GDOL's leadership to provide innovative state-of-the-art services to
Georgia's job seekers and employers to:
• Create a cutting-edge system delivering labor exchange services to employers and job seekers that integrates with
current and future unemployment insurance systems.
• Produce a system available at no cost to job seekers and employers 24/7/365 that matches qualified job seekers
with potential job opportunities by comparing experience, skills, abilities, education and other factors.
• Provide customers the choice of when, where, how, and what level of service to access.
• Provide customers the ability to receive services previously available only to customers who appear in person at
Career Centers.
• Attract a wider variety of customers by providing Internet services to those who otherwise may not have sought
assistance.
• Provide a broader range of skilled applicants for employers by attracting Internet-savvy professionals to online
services.
