Natural disaster assessments rarely include a consideration of worker and business disruptions with its impacts to the labor market. 

However, OnTheMap for Emergency Management uses a geographic display of an area's profile and its labor shed to estimate data on a number of factors, including the number of disaster-related unemployment insurance initial claims that may result from any given disaster event.
