You can load the Employment data set in R by issuing the following command at the console data("Employment"). This will load the data into a variable called Employment. If R says the Employment data set is not found, you can try installing the package by issuing this command install.packages("vcd") and then attempt to reload the data. If you need to download R, you can go to the R project website. You can download a CSV (comma separated values) version of the Employment R data set. The size of this file is about 836 bytes.
