Veteran Employment Outcomes Statistics Released
 The U.S. Census Bureau releases experimental Veteran Employment Outcomes (VEO) statistics. These tabulations show earnings and employment outcomes for U.S. Army veterans who completed their initial term of active-duty service. VEO are generated by linking veteran records provided by the U.S. Army to national administrative data on jobs at the U.S. Census Bureau. Coverage includes Army veterans' labor market outcomes one, five, and 10 years after discharge, by military occupation, rank, demographics (age, sex, race, ethnicity, education), industry and geography of employment. Although VEO currently covers only Army veterans, these statistics could potentially be expanded to other service branches. Documentation and CSV files are available here:
VEO data can also be accessed via the VEO Explorer visualization tool. This interactive tool allows for comparisons of veterans outcomes via an easy-to-use line and bar chart interface.
