Delaware Department Of Labor (DE DOL)

The Delaware Department of Labor connects people to jobs, resources, monetary benefits, workplace protections, and labor market information to promote financial independence, workplace justice, and a strong economy. The department's organizational structure was created by statute on June 22, 1970, when Delaware moved from a commission form of government to a cabinet form of government. Presently, the Department of Labor is headed by a secretary of labor who is appointed by the governor. The department is made up of four divisions and three offices: The Division of Employment and Training The Division of Unemployment Insurance The Division of Industrial Affairs The Division of Vocational Rehabilitation The Office of Occupational and Labor Market Information The Office of Administration The combined efforts of these divisions and offices support the employment-related needs of nearly 400,000 Delaware workers and more than 20,000 businesses throughout the state.
