Abstract

A method for generating an employment metric involves obtaining employer payroll data from multiple business applications and obtaining personal income data from multiple financial management applications, where personal income data indicate at least one income source absent from employer payroll data. The method further involves aggregating employer payroll data and personal income data to obtain aggregated employment data, and generating the employment metric using aggregated employment data.
