Department of Labor in California

What the Labor–California join is

Awarding agency 1601 and place-of-performance state CA meet here. $7,243,120,571.20 is the USAspending.gov obligation sum on awards that carry both tags. It is not Department of Labor’s nationwide total, not every federal dollar coded to California, and not an outlay register. Employment and training, worker protection, and other Labor awarding offices can share 1601. A 541-row file against $7.24 billion is not a count of California job centers.

541 is a thin award file: relatively few rows, so the mean is large and easy to misread as a typical grant. Modifications and repeat awards add rows. Unique recipients are unpublished. Dividing $7,243,120,571.20 by 541 yields about $13.39 million per award on average. That ratio is two packet facts. It is not a typical contract, grant, or benefit line.

Open Department of Labor in California for the live filtered table, California federal spending for every awarding agency in the state extract, Department of Labor for agency 1601 without a California filter, and All spending ties for the rest of the join list. Quote those hubs as parents, not as addends to $7,243,120,571.20.

Awarding agency 1601 as the Labor side

USAspending labels awarding agency 1601 as Department of Labor. That code produced $7,243,120,571.20 when crossed with California place of performance. The agency-wide 1601 hub does not require CA geography. The California hub does not require Labor. Only the overlay applies both filters, which is why this tie cites 541 awards.

A UI trust-fund balance, an OSHA citation count, and an ETA-versus-OSHA split are unpublished. 541 awards is a thin Labor book, so the implied mean is large. A second Labor slice on another state uses the same agency code and a different dollar total. Do not treat California’s 1601 cell as a synonym for every Labor account.

Questions

How much Labor spending is coded to California?

USAspending.gov lists $7,243,120,571.20 in Department of Labor obligations across 541 California-coded awards. Agency 1601 × CA is an obligation join, not an outlay and not California’s complete federal ledger. Department of Labor in California is the live overlay for this pair. Unique recipients are unpublished. Average obligation is about $13.39 million, a ratio of those two facts only.

Does this total include every Labor program in California?

The packet publishes one awarding-agency rollup, not a program pie. $7,243,120,571.20 is the combined obligation sum for agency 1601 inside California coding. Open Department of Labor in California to inspect award lines. 541 is an action count, not a program count. Unique recipients are unpublished. Do not invent a CFDA split from the department label.

Is $7,243,120,571.20 cash already paid in California?

No. Obligations are commitments recorded on USAspending.gov awards. Outlays — money that actually left the Treasury — are a different concept and are not this packet’s headline. Treating $7,243,120,571.20 as checks already cleared in California confuses those terms. Later ingests can revise 541 awards. Prefer the overlay if the table moved.

Where is the live Labor–California table?

Department of Labor in California is the overlay. California federal spending and Department of Labor are the parents. All spending ties lists other agency-state pairs. Those hubs are not addends. Keep both sides of the join when citing $7,243,120,571.20. Place of performance is CA, not a county map. Obligations are not outlays.
