Western New York Employment Strikeforce

In May 2016, Governor Andrew M. Cuomo announced the Western New York Employment Strikeforce, an initiative targeting high unemployment rates in the cities of Buffalo, Lackawanna, and Niagara Falls. The NYS Department of Labor is spearheading the Strikeforce in partnership with local leadership and community organizations.

Below are current job openings in the target areas located in the Western New York region. New Yorkers can view the area they live in, see which industries are growing and find out what jobs are available in that economic sector. Job opening numbers are updated frequently.
