The Employment Security Division promotes employment, economic stability, and growth by operating a no-fee labor exchange that meets the needs of employers, job seekers, and veterans. By statute, our mission is to promote employment and economic stability by responding to the needs of employers and job seekers.

To ensure that job ready workers are available to meet employer needs, the Employment Security Division administers three complementary programs: Employment Services, Unemployment Insurance, and Job Training through a network of Alaska Job Centers throughout the state. Employment Services includes job placement, job matching and referral, vocational counseling, and job search assistance. Unemployment Insurance provides for the payment of temporary benefits to eligible, unemployed workers while they are seeking employment. Job Training services are designed to meet the unique needs of individuals who wish to enter or re-enter the job market, with particular assistance for unemployed workers, low-income adults, youth and others who need help finding stable employment.
