Technical information: (202) 691-6567 http://www.bls.gov/cew/ Media contact: 691-5902 USDL 03-04 For release: 10:00 A.M. EST Tuesday, January 7, 2003 WAGES AND EMPLOYMENT: SECOND QUARTER 2002 The average weekly wages of all workers covered by state and federal unemployment insurance (UI) programs was $687 in the second quarter of 2002, an increase of 1.7 percent from the same quarter in 2001, according to preliminary data released today by the Bureau of Labor Statistics of the U.S. Department of Labor. The over-the-year percent changes in average weekly wages for the last four quarters reported were below the levels for previous years. Quarterly employment and wage data are compiled from reports submitted by employers subject to state and federal unemployment insurance (UI) laws, covering 129.7 million full- and part-time jobs. Average weekly wages are computed by dividing total quarterly payrolls of employees covered by UI programs by the average monthly number of these employees and dividing by 13, for the 13 weeks in the quarter. These wage levels reflect both the level of wages and salaries paid per employee during the quarter and nonwage cash payments, such as tips, bonuses, and some stock options and other contributions that these employees earned. (See Technical Note.) Wage differences among industries reflect the varying composition of employment by occupation, industry, and hours of work, as well as other factors. For example, average weekly wage levels in retail trade industries are reduced by the relatively large share of part-time workers. Correspondingly, wage levels in construction industries reflect the prevalence of part-year employment due to weather and seasonal factors. Over-the-year wage changes may reflect shifts in the composition of employment, as well as changes in the level of average wages. Industry Among private sector industries, real estate and rental leasing had the fastest growing weekly wages in the second quarter of 2002, with a 5.4 percent over-the-year gain. This was followed by health care and social assistance (3.9 percent), administrative and waste services (3.8 percent), agriculture, forestry, fishing and hunting (3.5 percent), educational services (3.2 percent), and manufacturing (3.0 percent). The gains in real estate, agriculture, and educational services had limited impact on the total due to their 1 percent each shares of total wages in the second quarter. However, the manufacturing, health care, and administrative sectors had more substantial contributions because of their respective wage shares of 14, 10, and 4 percent. Federal government average weekly wages increased by 6.4 percent over the year. Lower 2001 levels reflected the presence of temporary decennial census workers. -----------------------------------------------------------------Quarterly Release of Covered Employment and Wages | Totals by County | | On February 12, 2003, BLS will begin the quarterly release of | county totals of employment and wages by issuing data for the | second quarter of 2002 on the BLS Web site. | ----------------------------------------------------------------- | | | | | | - 2 Four industry sectors recorded over-the-year declines in average weekly wages in the second quarter of 2002. The largest decline was in information, where average weekly wages fell by 4.8 percent. This was followed by professional and technical services, management of companies and enterprises, and mining, all with declines of 0.1 percent. Each of these sectors had average weekly wages at least 50 percent above the national average. (See table 2.) Despite its large percentage drop, information had limited impact on the total because it accounted for only 4 percent of total wages in the second quarter. Professional and technical services, management of companies and enterprises, and mining had respective wage shares of 8, 2, and 1 percent. These declines partially offset substantial gains in other sectors. Management of companies and enterprises was the highest paid sector in the second quarter of 2002, with average weekly wages of $1,257. Utilities was second with average weekly wages of $1,238, followed by mining ($1,103), finance and insurance ($1,082), and professional and technical services ($1,081). These five highest paying sectors accounted for 19 percent of total covered wages paid in the second quarter and had weekly earnings that ranged from 57 percent to 83 percent higher than the national average. The lowest paid sector was accommodation and food services with average weekly wages of $265. The next lowest paid sector was agriculture, forestry, fishing and hunting at $394, followed by retail trade ($440), other services, except public administration ($448), and arts, entertainment, and recreation ($454). States Forty-seven states and the District of Columbia showed growth in wages over year-ago levels. The highest wage growth (5.3 percent) occurred in Hawaii, followed by Delaware, Tennessee, and Wyoming (3.8 percent each) and Louisiana (3.7 percent). Three states experienced declines in their weekly wage level compared to the second quarter of 2001. Connecticut experienced the steepest decline, where weekly wage levels decreased by 1.1 percent. In Colorado, average weekly wages decreased by 0.3 percent and in Washington by 0.2 percent. These three states contained 5 percent of total wages in the second quarter. Among the states and the District of Columbia, the District of Columbia had the highest weekly wage level ($1,096) in the second quarter of 2002, followed by Connecticut ($851), Massachusetts ($837), New York ($834), and New Jersey ($828). (See table 3.) The 2002 second-quarter wage levels of these five highest-ranking states ranged from 21 percent to 60 percent above the national average. South Dakota posted the lowest wages ($492) in the second quarter of 2002. The next lowest wage levels were in North Dakota ($499), Montana ($501), Mississippi ($507), and Idaho ($527). The second-quarter 2002 average wage figures for these states were 23 to 28 percent below the national average. - 3 Technical Note These data are the product of a federal-state cooperative program known as the Covered Employment and Wages (CEW) program, also known as the ES-202 program. The data are derived from summaries of employment and total pay of workers covered by state and federal unemployment insurance (UI) legislation and provided by State Employment Security Agencies (SESAs). The summaries are a byproduct of the administration of state unemployment insurance programs that require most employers to pay quarterly taxes based on the employment and wages of workers covered by UI. Data for 2002 are preliminary and subject to revision. The employment and wage universe totals from the CEW differ from the official Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) estimates of employment and earnings produced by the Current Employment Statistics (CES) program due to differences in scope and coverage. The preliminary universe totals released by BLS are based on establishment reports including more than 95 percent of the employees within the scope of the CEW program. Estimates are used to impute employment and wages for the remaining establishments. Please see http://www.bls.gov/ces/ for more detailed technical information on the CES program concepts, coverage, and methodology. The preliminary CEW state data presented in table 3 of this release may differ from data released by the individual states. These potential differences result from the states' continuing receipt of UI data over time and ongoing review and editing. The individual states determine their data release timetables. Coverage Employment and wage data for workers covered by state UI laws and for federal civilian workers covered by the Unemployment Compensation for Federal Employees (UCFE) program are compiled from quarterly contribution reports submitted to the SESAs by employers. In addition to the quarterly contribution reports, employers who operate multiple establishments within a state complete a questionnaire, called the "Multiple Worksite Report," which provides detailed information on the location and industry of each of their establishments. The employment and wages data included in this release are derived from microdata summaries of nearly 8.0 million employer reports of employment and wages submitted by states to the BLS. These reports are based on place of employment rather than place of residence. UI and UCFE coverage is broad and basically comparable from state to state. In 2001, UI and UCFE programs covered workers in 129.7 million jobs. The estimated 124.8 million workers in these jobs (after adjustment for multiple jobholders) represented 99.7 percent of wage and salary civilian employment. Multiple jobholder estimates are produced by the Current Population Survey (CPS). Covered workers received $4.695 trillion in pay, representing 94.8 percent of the wage and salary component of personal income and 46.6 percent of the gross domestic product. Major exclusions from UI coverage include self-employed workers, most agricultural workers on small farms, all members of the Armed Forces, elected officials in most states, most employees of railroads, some domestic workers, most student workers at schools, and employees of certain small nonprofit organizations. - 4 Concepts and methodology Average monthly employment was calculated by averaging the employment for the three months in the quarter. Monthly employment is based on the number of workers who worked during or received pay for the pay period including the 12th of the month. With few exceptions, all employees of covered firms are reported, including production and sales workers, corporation officials, executives, supervisory personnel, and clerical workers. Workers on paid vacations and part-time workers also are included. Average weekly wage values are calculated by dividing quarterly total wages by the average of the three monthly employment levels (all employees, as described above) and dividing the result by 13, for the 13 weeks in the quarter. These calculations are made from unrounded employment and wage values so the average wage values that can be calculated from data from this database may differ from the averages reported due to rounding. Included in the quarterly wage data are non-wage cash payments such as bonuses, the cash value of meals and lodging when supplied, tips and other gratuities, and, in some states, employer contributions to certain deferred compensation plans such as 401(k) plans and stock options. Average weekly wages are affected by the ratio of full-time to part-time workers as well as the number of individuals in high-paying and low-paying occupations. When comparing average weekly wage levels between industries and/or states, these factors should be taken into consideration. Percent changes are calculated using the final 2001 quarterly data as the base data. Final data for 2001 may differ from preliminary data published earlier. In order to insure the highest possible quality of data, SESAs verify with employers and update, if necessary, the industry, location, and ownership classification of all establishments on a 3-year cycle. Changes in establishment classification codes resulting from the verification process are introduced with the data reported for the first quarter of the year. Changes resulting from improved employer reporting also are introduced in the first quarter. For these reasons, some data, especially at more detailed industry levels, may not be strictly comparable with earlier years. Change in industry classification systems Beginning with the release of data for 2001 in 2002, publications presenting data from the Covered Employment and Wages program use the 2002 version of the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) as the basis for the assignment and tabulation of economic data by industry. NAICS is the product of a cooperative effort on the part of the statistical agencies of the United States, Canada, and Mexico. The NAICS structure is significantly different from that of the 1987 Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) system, which had been used for industry classification purposes until 2002. Due to the differences in NAICS and SIC structures, industry data for 2001 are not comparable to the SIC-based data for earlier years. - 5 NAICS uses a production-oriented approach to categorize economic units. Units with similar production processes are classified in the same industry. NAICS focuses on how products and services are created, as opposed to the SIC focus on what is produced. This approach yields significantly different industry groupings than those produced by the SIC approach. Data users will be able to work with new NAICS industrial groupings that better reflect the workings of the U.S. economy. For example, a new industry sector called Information brings together units which turn information into a commodity with units which distribute that commodity. Information's major components are publishing, broadcasting, telecommunications, information services, and data processing. Under the SIC system, these units were spread across the manufacturing, communications, business services, and amusement services groups. Another new sector of interest is Professional and technical services. This sector is comprised of establishments engaged in activities where human capital is the major input. Users interested in more information about NAICS can access the Bureau of Labor Statistics Web page (http://www.bls.gov/bls/naics.htm) and the U.S. Census Bureau Web page (http://www.census.gov/epcd/www/naics.html). The NAICS 2002 manual is available from the National Technical Information Service (NTIS) Web page (http://www.ntis.gov/).
