The Journal for Labour Market Research is a journal in the interdisciplinary field of labour market research. As of 2016 the Journal publishes open access. The journal follows international research standards and strives for international visibility. With its empirical and multidisciplinary orientation, the journal publishes papers in English language concerning the labour market, employment, education/training and careers. Papers dealing with country-specific labour market aspects are suitable if they adopt an innovative approach and address a topic of interest to a wider international audience. The journal is distinct from most others in the field, as it provides a platform for contributions from a broad range of academic disciplines. The editors encourage replication studies, as well as studies based on international comparisons. Accordingly, authors are expected to make their empirical data available to readers who might wish to replicate a published work on request.

On June 28, 2023, as announced by Clarivate Analytics in the Journal Citation Reports (JCR), Journal for Labour Market Research, published by SpringerNature, has achieved its first Impact Factor of 1.7. 

We would like to take this opportunity to thank all the authors, reviewers, readers and editorial board members for their continuous support to the journal!
