This page reads every active posting whose normalized title is Licensed Practical Nurse across the ten boards JobsPipe collects and reports what those employers ask for: the seniority they target, whether the role is remote, whether pay is disclosed, the skills named in the text, and the industries, countries and company sizes behind the postings.

0.5% of these postings are marked remote, 53.8% state a salary or range, the most common seniority label is mid level at 16.2%. Postings with no seniority label are counted in the denominator, so the seniority shares do not sum to one.

## FAQ

### What share of licensed practical nurse job postings are remote?

0.5% of the active postings on this page carry a remote flag. The flag is read from the posting itself, so hybrid roles that never say remote are counted as on-site. Filter the API with remote set to true and the same scope to reproduce the figure.

### How many licensed practical nurse postings disclose salary?

53.8% state a salary or a range in the posting text or structured fields. Disclosure varies more by board and by jurisdiction than by role, so compare the figure with the board-level shares on the sources pages before reading it as a market signal.

The most named skills are nursing (89.8%), cpr (56.6%), patient-care (42.6%), communication (33.0%), compliance (20.6%). Skills are extracted from the posting text against a curated lexicon, and a posting counts once per skill it names, so the shares overlap.

### Which industries hire the most licensed practical nurse roles?

By ISIC division, the largest shares are Healthcare (32.3%), Residential care (14.4%), Public administration (1.9%). Industry is resolved from the employer's classification where known, and postings without a classification are excluded from this cut.
