CAUTION
Periodically, the Bureau adjusts the industry
employment series to a recent benchmark to improve their accuracy. These adjustments may also
affect the hours and earnings series because employment levels are used as weights. All industry
statistics shown in this report are adjusted to a
March 1964 b e n c h m a r k . Data from April 1964
forward are subject to revision at the time of the
next benchmark adjustment.
Issues of Employment and Earnings prior to
December 1965 contain data adjusted to previous
benchmarks and cannot be used in conjunction with
national industry data now shown in sections B, C,

and D, Comparable data for prior periods are published in Employment and Earnings Statistics for
the United States, 1909-65, BLS Bulletin 1312-3,
which may be purchased from the Superintendent
of Documents for $4. 25. For an individual industry, earlier data may be obtained upon request to
the Bureau.
When industry data are again adjusted to new
benchmarks, another edition of Employment and
Earnings Statistics for the United States will be
issued containing the revised data extending from
April 1964 forward to a current date, as well as the

SUMMARY EMPLOYMENT AND UNEMPLOYMENT
DEVELOPMENTS, JULY 1966
Nonfarm payroll employment continued on a strong uptrend in July. At the
same time, the unemployment rate for all civilian workers, at 3. 9 percent in July,
was down sharply from a year ago but not significantly changed from the May and
June rates of 4.0 percent.
Industry Employment Trends
At 63. 8 million in July, total nonfarm payroll employment was up 3. 1 million
from a year ago. Payroll employment, which usually declines in July, was down
250, 000 from June; however, the reduction was 150, 000 less than seasonally expected
for this period. The net improvement was concentrated in miscellaneous services
and government. Work stoppages in construction and in transportation and public
utilities were primarily responsible for moderate declines (seasonally adjusted) in
those industries,,
On a seasonally adjusted basis, manufacturing employment was practically
unchanged; June-to-July gains in machinery, primary metals, fabricated metals, and
electrical equipment were offset by a decline in transportation equipment. The decline
in transportation equipment (70, 000 seasonally adjusted) is attributable to early model
changeovers in the automobile industry.
While manufacturing employment made the largest contribution (1, 050, 000) to
the over-the-year gain in total payroll employment, the service-producing industries
continued to expand rapidly. Employment increases of nearly 500, 000 each were
recorded in trade and miscellaneous services, while State and local government added
575, 000 jobs.
An important feature of the year-to-year increase in manufacturing employment
was the concentration of gains among production workerso At a level of 14. 1 million
in July, production worker employment was up nearly 800, 000 from a year earlier.
Factory Hours and Earnings
The factory workweek moved down by 0o 4 hour to 41. 2 hours in Julyo After
seasonal adjustment, the average workweek in manufacturing was down slightly for
the third consecutive month but was still at a comparatively high level. Included in
the average workweek were 3O 7 hours of overtime, the highest overtime figure for
July since the series began in 1956O In comparison with July 1965, the workweek
was up 0. 2 hour.
Factory workers8 average hourly earnings edged down 1 cent to $2« 70 in July,
largely as a result of the employment decline in the auto industryo With the decreases
in both the workweek and average hourly earnings, weekly earnings dropped $1. 50 to
$111.25. Over the year, weekly earnings were up $40 25. Higher hourly earnings
(up 9 cents to $2. 70) accounted for roughly, $39 75 of the gain, while a longer workweek accounted for the remainder.
Unemployment
Total unemployment declined seasonally by 650, 000 to 3. 2 million. Over the
year, unemployment was down 400, 000, with the entire net decline among persons
seeking full-time jobs. There were approximately 1. 0 million unemployed adult
men in July--the vast majority seeking full-time worko Approximately one-sixth of




the 870,000 unemployed adult women were seeking part-time jobs, while 30 percent
of the 1.3 million unemployed teenagers were doing so.
Unemployment among nonwhites totaled 800, 000, or one-fourth of the unemployed. Their jobless rate of 7.9 percent was not significantly changed from May
and June but was down a full percentage point from a year earlier o
The unemployment rate for teenagers, at 12O2 percent, was unchanged over the
montho For adult women, the unemployment rate was 3. 7 percent in July, down
marginally from May and June but about the same as in March and April.
Unemployment rates for men aged 25 years and over and for married men
edged up in July for the second successive month. These changes were accompanied
by the third consecutive rise in the rate for blue-collar workers. Presumably, these
developments are tied closely to the slowdown in auto production and the early model
changeover.
Virtually all measures of unemployment continued to show significant improvement from a year earlier 0 The unemployment rate was down from 4. 5 to 3. 9 percent.
Total unemployment was down by 400, 000 from July 1965, with the entire net decline
among persons seeking full-time work. More than half of the reduction occurred
among those out of work 15 weeks or longer. Long-term unemployment, at 0. 6 percent of the labor force in June and July, was at its lowest level since January 1954.
Jobless rates were down from July 1965 for the major age-sex groups and for workers
in most nonfarm occupation and industry groups.
Insured Unemployment
State insured unemployment moved up more than seasonally between mid-June
and mid-July as it rose by 177, 000 to 963, 000. In addition to the usual temporary
upswing in claims from persons not eligible for pay while their plants are closed for
vacation periods, earlier-than-usual layoffs in automobile plants contributed to the
rise. Among the States, Michigan showed the largest rise (23,000), while New York,
Massachusetts, Pennsylvania, and Ohio reported increases of more than 10,000.

The insured jobless rate was 2. 4 percent in July after seasonal adjustment,
compared with 2. 1 percent in June; before adjustment, the rate was 2. 1 percent,
down from 2. 7 percent a year earlier. Among the States with the largest number of
automobile workers covered by State UI programs, only Michigan and New York had
July rates above the national average. On the other hand, the rates were lo 1 percent




or less in twelve States including such large States as Illinois, Indiana, and Texas.
Total Employment and Labor Force
At 76. 4 million, total employment was up 1. 6 million from July 1965 and at an
alltime high. Over the year there was a 2. 2 million pickup in nonagricultural employment, as farm employment continued its long-term downtrend. Teenage employment
was up 900, 000 from a year ago.
Included in the employment total were 2. 2 million nonagricultural workers on
part time for economic reasons o The number of these involuntary part-time workers
was down 150, 000 over the year and at its lowest July level since 1956O
The total labor force, at 82. 8 million in July, was up l0 6 million from a year
earlier. The Armed Forces have increased by about 400, 000 since July 1965, while
the civilian labor force expanded by 1. 2 million.




EMPLOYMENT SITUATION REFLECTS SLOWER RATE
O F ECONOMIC GROWTH IN SECOND QUARTER

1966

Employment growth slowed in the second quarter of 1966, following very rapid
gains in the preceding 6 months. At the same time, total unemployment, which had
fallen steadily from late 1963 to early 1966, rose slightly, edging the unemployment
rate up from 3. 8 to 3. 9 percent. This was the first quarterly increase in the
unemployment rate in 3-1/2 years.
Despite the slowdown in economic growth in the second quarter of 1966, all
major employment and unemployment indicators were sharply improved over the year.
Moreover, for the prime worker groups--adult men and married men—jobless rates
continued to edge down in the second quarter. The slight increase in the total unemployment rate in the second quarter was attributable entirely to women and teenagers.
As the second quarter of 1966 began, the outlook for continued employment expansion was open to serious doubt. The employment gain and the unemployment drop
during the preceding six months had been exceptionally large; it appeared that manpower
shortages might curtail further advances. Although employment growth did taper off in
the second quarter, gains were more in line with sustainable long-term growth rates.
The slower employment pickup in the second quarter was partly attributable to special
factors which held construction employment below the expected Spring level0
Employment Developments
Total employment rose by 1. 8 million to 74O 2 million between the second quarters
of 1965 and 1966O On a seasonally adjusted basis, there were strong gains (500, 000600,000 each) from the second quarter of 1965 to the first quarter of 1966O The increase
slowed to 100, 000 in the second quarter0 Uneven rates of growth, however, are not
unusual. For example, total employment (seasonally adjusted) rose very strongly in
the first half of 1964, remained unchanged in the third quarter, and resumed its uptrend
in the final quarter 0

opments are frequently uneven. Nevertheless, over the past year,

total employment and for all of the growth in the labor force.

Full- and Part-Time Workerso A significant aspect of employment growth in
1966, l as in 1964 and 1965, was its concentration among full-time workers o From
1965 to 1966 the number of workers on full-time schedules rose by 1. 6 million, while
the number on voluntary part time advanced by 400, 0000 The voluntary part-time
employment rise was in line with long-term trends 0 The growth in full-time employment, while consistent with the large annual increases recorded since 1963, was
substantially greater than that evident from 1956 to 1963O
The number of workers on part time for economic reasons (such as slack work
or inability to find a full-time job) was reduced by 200, 000 to 20 0 million as the
workweek was lengthened and more full-time jobs became available. All of the

Unless otherwise specified, all levels cited are actual averages for the second
quarter of selected years, while all changes between consecutive quarters and unemployment rates are seasonally adjusted quarterly averages0




reduction over the year occurred among adult workers.
Full-time workers accounted for the entire 500, 000 reduction in unemployment
from 1965 to 1966O The unemployment rate for full-time workers averaged 3. 6 percent in the second quarter, up from 3. 4 percent in the first quarter, but well below
the 4O 4 percent of a year earlier.
Part-time employment continued its long-term uptrend but rose only enough to
absorb the number of part-time workers added to the labor force, preventing their
unemployment level from rising0 The total number of persons seeking part-time jobs
averaged 625, 000 in 1966, the same as in 1965. Jobless persons looking for part-time
work represented nearly one-fifth of total unemployment in 1966, up from one-sixth in
1964 and 1965O Teenagers accounted for 400, 000 or nearly two-thirds of the persons
looking for part-time work in 1966. Another 150, 000 were adult women, and only
75, 000 were adult men,
Industrial Composition0 Nonfarm payroll employment (seasonally adjusted)
advanced by more than 600, 000 from the first to the second quarter of 1966, somewhat
less than the 800, 000-1, 000, 000 gain registered in each of the preceding two quarters.
The slower pace of the recent expansion is more evident in the monthly figures. From
September 1965 to March 1966, payroll employment showed a seasonally adjusted
increase of 20 2 million or 3 50, 000 per montho Since March the total rise has been
about 600, 000 or approximately 200, 000 per montho On an annual basis, the second
quarter increase amounts to 2. 6 million--larger than any annual average increase
since 1950-51. A pickup of 2-1/2 million in payroll employment for 1966 would be
sufficient to absorb the projected labor force increase plus the usual additions from
farm employment and still permit a substantial reduction in unemployment.
The slower growth in payroll employment in the second quarter was in large
part attributable to the contract construction industry, which was affected by a number
of special factors0 After a very sharp seasonally adjusted rise (22 5, 000) from the
third quarter of 1965 to the first quarter of 1966, construction employment declined
by 100, 000 in the second quarter. The usual construction pickup in April was held
down by strikes and bad weather; strike activity was also a factor in May0 In addition,
the tightness of mortgage money may be adversely affecting construction employment,
especially in the private residential sector,, Despite the decline in recent months,
construction employment averaged 3, 300, 000 in the second quarter, up 125, 000 or
4 percent from a year earlier.
Manufacturing employment, at 19. 0 million in the second quarter, continued
its strong pickup. Since the second quarter of 1965, the number of manufacturing
jobs has risen by 1. 1 million, accounting for more than one-third of the total nonfarm increase 0 The seasonally adjusted increase in the second quarter totaled
300, 000, slightly less than the 3 50, 000 rise recorded in the first quarter. Almost
all manufacturing industries have contributed to the recent advance, with especially
large gains taking place in electrical equipment, transportation equipment, machinery, and appareL
The workweek for manufacturing production workers, which was at a postWorld War II high of 41. 5 hours (seasonally adjusted) in the first quarter, dipped
to 41. 4 hours in the April-June period. The decline took place mainly in the durable
goods sector, especially transportation equipment where sales of automobiles have
fallen and an early model changeover is scheduledo The dip in manufacturing hours
was probably a temporary adjustment from the very .high levels of recent months.
On a seasonally adjusted basis, the workweek has been 41 hours or above since
December 1964; it averaged 410 5 hours in the first six months of 1966O
The service-producing industries continued to provide large numbers of new
employment opportunities in 1966. Government employment rose by about 225,000




(seasonally adjusted) in the second quarter, as both the Federal and State and local
levels added employeeso Special programs to provide summer jobs for youth
accounted for part of the large rise in government employment. After seasonal
adjustment, employment in trade and miscellaneous services each rose by nearly
100, 000 in the second quarter. While the gains in trade and services were less than
those registered from the fourth quarter of 1965 to the first quarter of 1966, they
were more in line with long-term growth rates for these sectors o
Unemployment Problems
Despite the continued gains in employment in the second quarter of 1966, the
increase was not enough to match the labor force growth and seasonally adjusted
unemployment rose about 7 5, 000 from the first quarter level. The unemployment
rate also moved up 0.1 percentage point to 3.9 percent--the first quarterly increase
in 3-1/2 years. The increase was concentrated among younger workers and adult
women, where the labor force expansion has taken place.
The total unemployment rate, however, was down sharply from 4. 7 percent a
year earlier. 1966 is the first year since 1953 that the unemployment rate has been
below 4. 0 percento
Duration. All of the seasonally adjusted increase in unemployment in the second
quarter of 196*5" took place among persons unemployed less than 5 weeks, while longterm joblessness continued to drop. In the second quarter, 58 out of every 100
unemployed persons had been seeking work for 1 month or less. This was the highest
proportion of short-term to total unemployment since the Korean period. After
seasonal adjustment, long-term unemployment (15 weeks or more) fell to 550,000
in April-June 1966--0. 7 percent of the labor force--and unemployment of 6 months
or more was down to 250, 000e
Reasons for Unemployment^ New data from special surveys on why people
seek work provide additional perspective on the recent drop in unemployment. (See
table below for June 1964, 1965, and 1966 findings. ) Total unemployment fell about
800, 000 between June 1964 and June 1966. Virtually all of this drop took place among
persons who had lost their latest job permanently (as opposed to those on layoff where
recall is possible). The unemployment reduction was greatest among job losers out
of work for 5 weeks or more--from nearly 900, 000 in 1964 to 300, 000 in 1966 (table 1).
The number of persons who lost their jobs permanently provides one measure of those
most seriously affected by unemployment, The unemployment of persons who quit

their jobs and labor force entrants is primarily frictional or transitional in nature.
Unemployment among labor force entrants, job leavers, and persons on layoff
has shown very little change in June of the last three years. It appears that these
types of joblessness are extremely hard to reduce even during a period of rapid
employment expansion. In contrast, the marked reduction in persons who lost their
latest job permanently indicates the responsiveness of this type of unemployment to
economic growth and active manpower policies. It should be noted, however, that
by June 1966 this category had reached a very low level, with only 300, 000 seeking
work more than 5 weeks. This indicates that there is little room left for further
improvement and that future reductions in the unemployment rate will probably have
to be accomplished by more efficient placement of labor force entrants.
Young Jobseekers. The 16-21 year-old civilian labor force expands very rapidly
between May and July because of the influx into the job market of young people who
previously had been attending school. The youth work force, which has grown very
rapidly in recent years, showed an especially sharp spurt in June 1966. Nearly 2 - 1 / 2
million 16-21 year-olds were added to the labor force between May and June--the
largest month-to-month increase on record (table 2), An additional 600,000 entered
in July, bringing the total number of 16-21 year-olds in the labor force to 12.3
million, 800, 000 above the July 1965 level and 1. 7 million greater than in July 1964.
Part of the labor force growth in this age group in the last 2 years is attributable to
substantial population expansion, especially among 18 and 19 year-olds.
In addition, campaigns to provide jobs for youth this summer were effective in
drawing more 16-21 year-olds into the labor force. In June of 1964 and 1965, youth
labor force participation rates were 60 and 59 percent, respectively. The June 1966
participation rate rose to 63 percent. Similarly, the July participation rate (66 percent) was higher than the July rate in the 2 preceding years.

The 1966 Youth Opportunity Campaign played an important part in the creation
of the 1. 7 million jobs for 16-21 year-olds between May and June, More than 800, 000
jobs for young people were pledged by employers by June. Nearly 770, 000 were pledged
by private employers, while the Federal Government and the Neighborhood Youth Corps
expanded their employment of youth by about 25, 000 each.
All of the additional expansion in the youth labor force this summer was absorbed in employment so the unemployment rate 2 in both June and July 1966 was below
the corresponding months in 1965 (table 2); however, the decline in the unemployment
rate for 16-21 year-olds took place entirely among white youth. Their rate fell from
17-1/2 percent in June 1965 to 15 percent in June 1966 and from 11 to 9 percent
between July 1965 and 1966. In contrast, the rate for Negro3 youth remained close to
25 percent in both June and July of the last 2 years,
Negro youth employment rose by about 300, 000 from May to July 1966 and
accounted for 11 percent of the total 16-21 year-old employment gain. The employment increase for Negro youth was equal to their proportion in the labor force but
was not enough to keep pace with Negro labor force growth, and their unemployment
rose. It will take employment gains and unemployment reductions that are much
more than proportional to bring the unemployment rate for Negro 16-21 year-olds
down by any significant degree.

Unemployment rates and levels in this section are not seasonally adjusted.
Statistics for all nonwhite persons have been used to depict the employment
situation for Negroes. Negroes represent about 92 percent of all nonwhites in the
United States.

*Data for 1947-56 adjusted to reflect changes in the definition of employment and unemployment adopted in January 1957. Two groups averaging about one-quarter million
workers which were formerly classified as employed (with a job but not at work)-those on temporary layoff and those waiting to start new wage and salary jobs within 30 d a y s were assigned to different classifications, mostly to the unemployed. Data by sex, shown in table A-2, were adjusted for the years 1948-56.
2Not available.
^Beginning 1953, labor force and employment figures are not strictly comparable with previous years as a result of the introduction of material from the 1950 Census into
the estimating procedure. Population levels were raised by about 6Q0t0Q0; labor force, total employment, and agricultural employment by about 350,000, primarily affecting the
figures for total and males. Other categories were relatively unaffected.
^Data include Alaska and Hawaii beginning i960 and are therefore not strictly comparable with previous years. This inclusion has resulted in an increase of about half a
million in the noninstitutional population 14 years of age and over, and about 300,000 in the labor force, four-fifths of this in nonagricultural employment. The levels of other
labor force categories were not appreciably changed.
5
Figures for periods prior to April 1962 are not strictly comparable with current data because of the introduction of I960 Census data into the estimation procedure. The
change primarily affected the labor force and employment totals, which were reduced by about 200,000. The unemployment totals were virtually unchanged.
NOTE:- Data for 1929—39 based on sources other than direct enumeration.

INTRODUCTION

Relation between the household and payroll series

The statistics in this periodical are compiled from
three major sources; (1) household interviews, (2) payroil reports from employers; and (3) administrative
statistics of unemployment insurance systems.

The household and payroll data supplement one
another, each providing significant types of information
that the other cannot suitably supply. Population characteristics, for example, are readily obtained only from
the household survey whereas detailed industrial classifications can be reliably derived only from establishment reports.

Data based on household interviews are obtained from
a sample survey of the population. The survey is conducted each month by the Bureau of the Census for the
Bureau of Labor Statistics and provides comprehensive
data on the labor force, the employed and the unemployed, including such characteristics as age, sex, color,
marital status, occupations, hours of work, and duration
of unemployment. The information is collected by trained
interviewers from a sample of about 35,000 households,
representing 357 areas in 701 counties and independent
cities, with coverage in 50 States and the District of
Columbia. The data collected are based on the activity
or status reported for the calendar week including the
12th of the month.

Data from these two sources differ from each other
because of differences in definition and coverage, sources
of information, methods of collection, and estimating
procedures. Sampling variability and response errors
are additional reasons for discrepancies. The major
factors which have a differential effect on levels and
trends of the two series are as follows:
Employment
Coverage. The household survey definition of employment comprises wage and salary workers (including
domestics and other private household workers), selfemployed persons, and unpaid workers who worked 15
hours or more during the survey week in family-operated
enterprises. Employment in both farm and nonfarm industries is included. The payroll survey covers only wage
and salary employees on the payrolls of nonfarm establishments.

Data basedon establishment payroll records are compiled each month from mail questionnaires by the Bureau
of Labor Statistics, in cooperation with State agencies.
The payroll survey provides detailed industry information
oh nonagricultural wage and salary employment, average weekly hours, average hourly and weekly earnings,
and labor turnover for the Nation, States, and metropolitan areas. The figures are based on payroll reports
from a sample of establishments employing about 25
million nonfarm wage and salary workers. The data
relate to all workers, full- or part-time, who received
pay during the payroll period which includes the 12th
of the month.

Multiple jobholding. The household approach provides information on the work status of the population
without duplication since each person is classified as
employed, unemployed, or not in the labor force9 Employed persons holding more than one job are counted
only once, and are classified according to the job at
which they worked the greatest number of hours during
the survey week. In the figures based on establishment
records, persons who worked in more than one establishment during the reporting period are counted each
time their names appear on payrolls.

Data based on administrative records of unemployment

insurance systems furnish a complete count of insured
unemployment among the two-thirds of the Nation's
labor force covered by unemployment insurance programs. Weekly reports, by State, are issued on the
number of initial claims, the volume and rate of insured
unemployment under State unemployment insurance programs, and the volume under programs of unemployment
compensation for Federal employees, exservicemen,
and for railroad workers. These statistics are published by the Bureau of Employment Security, U.S.
D e p a r t m e n t of Labor in "Unemployment Insurance
Claims."




Unpaid absences from jobs. The household survey includes among the employed all persons who had jobs but
were not at work during the survey week—that is, were
not working or looking for work but had jobs from which
they were temporarily absent because of illness, bad
weather, vacation, labor-management dispute, or because they were taking time off for various other
reasons, even if they were not paid by their employers
94

for the time off. In the figures based on payroll reports,
persons on leave paid for by the company are included,
but not those on leave without pay for the entire payroll
period.
Hours of Work

The household survey measures hours actually worked
whereas the payroll survey measures hours paid for by
employers. In the household survey data, all persons
with a job but not at work are excluded from the hours
distributions and the computations of average hours.
In the payroll survey, employees on paid vacation, paid
holiday, or paid sick leave are included and assigned the
number of hours for which they were paid during the
reporting period.
Comparability of the household interview data
with other series

Unemployment insurance data. The unemployed total
from the household survey includes all persons who did
not work at all during the survey week and were looking
for work or were waiting to be called back to a job from
which they had been laid off, regardless of whether or
not they were eligible' for unemployment insurance. Figures on unemployment insurance claims, prepared by the
Bureau of Employment Security of the Department of
Labor, exclude persons who have exhausted their benefit
rights, new workers who have not earned rights to unemployment insurance, and persons losing jobs not
covered by unemployment insurance systems (agriculture, State and local government, domestic service,
self-employed, unpaid family work, nonprofit organizations, and firms below a minimum size).
In addition, the qualifications for drawing unemployment compensation differ from the definition of unemployment used in the household survey. For example,
persons with a job but not at work and persons working
only a few hours during the week are sometimes eligible
for unemployment compensation, but are classified as
employed rather than unemployed in the household
survey.
Agricultural employment estimates of the Department
of Agriculture. The principal differences in coverage

are the inclusion of persons under 14 in the Statistical
Research Service (SRS) series and the treatment of dual
jobholders who are counted more than once if they worked
on more than one farm during the reporting period.
There are also wide differences in sampling techniques
and collecting and estimating methods, which cannot be
readily measured in terms of impact on differences in
level and trend of the two series.
Comparability of the payroll employment data
with other series

Statistics on manufactures and business, Bureau of the
Census. BLS establishment statistics on employment
differ from employment counts derived by the Bureau
of the Census from its censuses or annual sample surveys of manufacturing establishments and the censuses
of business establishments. The major reasons for some
noncomparability are different treatment of business
units considered parts of an establishment, such as
central administrative offices and auxiliary units, the
industrial classification of establishments, and different
reporting patterns by multiunit companies. There are
also differences in the scope of the industries covered,
e.g., the Census of Business excludes contract construction, professional services, public utilities, and financial
establishments, whereas these are included in BLS
statistics.
County Business Patterns. Data in County Business
Patterns, published jointly by the U.S. Departments of
Commerce and Health, Education, and Welfare, differ
from BLS establishment statistics in the treatment of
central administrative offices and auxiliary units. Differences may also arise because of industrial classification and reporting practices. In addition, CBP excludes
interstate railroads and government, and coverage is
incomplete for some of the nonprofit activities.
Employment covered by State unemployment insurance
programs. Not all nonfarm wage and salary workers are
covered by the unemployment insurance programs. All
workers in certain activities, such as interstate railroads, are excluded. In addition, small firms in covered
industries are also excluded in 32 States. In general,
these are establishments with less than four employees.

Labor Force Data
COLLECTION AND COVERAGE

Statistics on the employment status of the population,
the personal, occupational, and other economic characteristics of employed and unemployed persons, and
related labor force data are compiled for the BLS by
the Bureau of the Census in its Current Population
Survey (CPS). A detailed description of this survey
appears in "Concepts and Methods Used in Household
Statistics on Employment and Unemployment from the




Current Population Survey" (BLS Report 279). This report is available from BLS on request.
These monthly surveys of the population are conducted with a scientifically selected sample designed to
represent the civilian noninstitutional population 14 years
and over. Respondents are interviewed to obtain information about the employment status of each member of
the household 14 years of age and over. The inquiry
relates to activity or status during the calendar week,

during the survey week); or (c) would have been looking
for work except that they were temporarily ill or
believed no work was available in their line of work or
in the community.

Sunday through Saturday, which includes the 12th of the
month. This is known as the survey week. Actual field
interviewing is conducted in the following week.
Inmates of institutions and persons under 14 years
of age are not covered in the regular monthly enumerations and are excluded from the population and labor
force statistics shown in this report. Data on members
of the Armed Forces, who are included as part of the
categories "total noninstitutional population" and "total
labor force," are obtained from the Department of Defense.

Duration of unemployment represents the length of
time (through the current survey week) during which
persons classified as unemployed had been continuously
looking for work or would have been looking for work
except for temporary illness, or belief that no work was
available in thefr line of work or in the community. For
persons on layoff, duration of unemployment represent;
the number of full weeks since the termination of their
most recent employment. A period of 2 weeks or more
during which a person was employed or ceased looking
for work is considered to break the continuity of the
present period of seeking work. Average duration is an
arithmetic mean computed from a distribution by single
weeks of unemployment.

Each month, 35,000 occupied units are designated for
interview. About 1,500 of these households are visited
but interviews are not obtained because the occupants
are not found at home after repeated calls or are unavailable for other reasons. This represents a noninterview rate for the survey of about 4 percent. In addition
to the 35,000 occupied units there are 5,000sample units
in an average month which are visited but found to be
vacant or otherwise not to be enumerated. Part of the
sample is changed each month. The rotation plan provides
for three-fourths of the sample to be common from one
month to the next, and one-half to be common with the
same month a year ago.

The civilian labor force comprises the total of all
civilians classified as employed or unemployed in accordance with the criteria described above. The "total
labor force" also includes members of the Armed Forces
stationed either in the United States or abroad.
The unemployment rate represents the number unemployed as a percent of the civilian labor force. This
measure can also be computed for groups within the labor
force classified by sex, age, marital status, color, etc.

CONCEPTS

Employed persons comprise (a) all those who during
the survey week did any work at all as paid employees, in
their own business profession, or on farm, or who worked
15 hours or more as unpaid workers in an enterprise
operated by a member of the family, and (b) all those
who were not working or looking for work but who had
jobs or businesses from which they were temporarily
absent because of illness, bad weather, vacation, labormanagement dispute, or personal reasons, whether or
not they were paid by their employers for the time off.

Not in labor force includes all civilians 14 years
and over who are not classified as employed or unemployed. These persons are further classified as
"engaged in own home housework," "in school," "unable
to work" because of long-term physical or mental illness,
and "other." The "other" group includes for the most
part retired persons, those reported as too old to work,
the voluntarily idle, and seasonal workers for whom the
survey week fell in an "off" season and who were not
reported as unemployed. Persons doing only incidental
unpaid family work (less than 15 hours) are also classified as not in the labor force.

Each employed person is counted only once. Those
who held more than one job are counted in the job at
which they worked the greatest number of hours during
the survey week.

Occupation, industry, and class of worker f o r t h e
employed apply to the job held in the survey week. Persons with two or more jobs are classified in the job at
which they worked the greatest number of hours during
the survey week. The unemployed are classified according to their latest full-time civilian job lasting 2 weeks
or more. The occupation and industry groups used in
data derived from the CPS household interviews are
defined as in the 1960 Census of Population. Information
on the detailed categories included in these groups is
available upon request.

Included in the total are employed citizens of foreign countries, temporarily in the United States, who are
not living on the premises of an Embassy.
Excluded are persons whose only activity consisted
of work around the house {such as own home houaework,
and painting or repairing own home) or volunteer work
for religious, charitable, and similar organizations.
Unemployed persons comprise a|l persons who did
not work at all during the survey week and were looking
for work, regardless of whether or not they were eligible
for unemployment insurance. Also included as unemployed are those who did not work at all and (a) were
waiting to be called back to a job from which they had
been laid off; or (b) were waiting to report to a new
wage or salary job within 30 days (and were not in school




The class-of-worker breakdown specifies "wage and
salary workers," subdivided into private and government
workers, "self-employed workers," and "unpaid family
workers." Wage and salary workers receive wages,
salary, commission, tips, or pay in kind from a private
employer or from a governmental unit. Self-employed
persons are those who work for profit or fees in their

96

own business, profession, or trade, or operate a farm.
Unpaid family workers are persons working without pay
for 15 hours a week or more on a farm or in a business
operated by a member of the household to whom they are
related by blood or marriage.

ESTIMATING METHODS

Under the estimation methods used in the CPS, all of
the results for a given month become available simultaneously and are based on returns from the entire
panel of respondents. There are no subsequent adjustments to independent benchmark data on labor force,
employment, or unemployment. Therefore, revisions of
the historical data are not an inherent feature of this
statistical program.

Hours of work statistics relate to the actual number
of hours worked during the survey week. For example,
a person who normally works 40 hours a week but who
was off on the Veterans Day holiday would be reported
as working 32 hours even though he was paid for the
holiday.

1. Noninterview adjustment. The weights for all interviewed households are adjusted to the extent needed
to account for occupied sample households for which no
information was obtained because of absence, impassable
roads, refusals, or unavailability for other reasons. This
adjustment is made separately by groups of sample areas
and, within these, for six groups—color (white and nonwhite) within the three residence categories (urban,
rural nonfarm, and rural farm). The proportion of sample
households not interviewed varies from 4 to 6 percent
depending on weather, vacations, etc.

For persons working in more than one job, the figures
relate to the number of hours worked in all jobs during
the week. However, all the hours are credited to the
major job.
Persons who worked 35 hours or more in the survey
week are designated as working "full time"; persons who
worked between 1 and 34 hours are designated as working
"part time." Part-time workers are classified by their
usual status at their present job (either full time or part
time) and by their reason for working part time during
the survey week (economic or other reasons). "Economic
reasons" include: Slack work, material shortages, repairs to plant or equipment, start or termination of job
during the week, and inability to find full-time work.
"Other reasons" include: Labor dispute, bad weather,
own illness, vacation, demands of home housework,
school, no desire for full-time work and full-time
worker only during peak season. Persons on full-time
schedules include, in addition to those working 35 hours
or more, those who worked from 1-34 hours for noneconomic reasons but usually work full time.

2. Ratio estimates. The distribution of the population selected for the sample may differ somewhat, by
chance, from that of the Nation as a whole, in such
characteristics as age, color, sex, and residence. Since
these population characteristics are closely correlated
with labor force participation and other principal measurements made from the sample, the latter estimates
can be substantially improved when weighted appropriately by the known distribution of these population
characteristics. This is accomplished through two stages
of ratio estimates as follows:
a. First-stage ratio estimate. This is the procedure in which the sample proportions are weighted by
the known 1960 Census data on the color-residence
distribution of the population. This step takes into account the differences existing at the time of the 1960
Census between the color-residence distribution for the
Nation and for the sample areas.

Full- and part-time labor force. The full-time labor
force consists of persons working on full-time schedules,
persons involuntarily working part time (because fulltime work is not available) and unemployed persons
seeking full-time jobs. The part-time labor force consists
of persons working part time voluntarily and unemployed
persons seeking part-time work. Persons with a job but
not at work during the survey week are distributed proportionately between the full-time and voluntary parttime employment categories.

b. Second-stage ratio estimate. In this step, the
sample proportions are weighted by independent current
estimates of the population by age, sex, and color.
These estimates are prepared by carrying forward the
most recent census data (1960) to take account of subsequent aging of the population, mortality, and migration between the U n i t e d S t a t e s and other countries.

Labor force time lost is a measure of man-hours
lost to the economy through unemployment and involuntary part-time employment and is expressed
as a percent of potentially available man-hours.
It is computed by assuming: (1) that unemployed
persons looking for full-time work lost an average of 37.5 hours, (2) that those looking for parttime work lost the average number of hours actually
worked by voluntary part-time workers during the
survey week, and (3) that persons on part time for
economic reasons lost the difference between 37.5
hours and the a c t u a l n u m b e r of hours they
worked.

3. Composite estimate procedure. In deriving statistics for a given month, a composite estimating procedure is used which takes account of net changes from
the previous month for continuing parts of the sample
(75 percent) as well as the sample results for the current month. This procedure reduces the sampling variability especially of month-to-month changes but also of
the levels for most items.

97

228-316 O - 66




The figures presented in table B are to be used for
other characteristics and are approximations of the
standard errors of all such characteristics. They should
be interpreted as providing an indication of the order of
magnitude of the standard errors rather than as the
precise standard error for any specific item.

Reliability of the Estimates

Since the estimates are based on a sample, they may
differ from the figures that would have been obtained if
it were possible to take a complete census using the
same schedules and procedures.

The standard error of the change in an item from
one month to the next month is more closely related to
the standard error of the monthly level for that item than
to the size of the specific month-to-month change itself.
Thus, in order to use the approximations to the standard
errors of month-to-month changes as presented in table
C, it is first necessary to obtain the standard error of
the monthly level of the item in table B, and then find the
standard error of the month-to-mo nth change in table C
corresponding to this standard error of level. It should
be noted that table C applies to estimates of change between 2 consecutive months. For changes between the
current month and the same month last year, the standard errors of level shown in table B are acceptable
approximations.

The standard error is a measure of sampling variability, that is, the variations that might occur by chance
because only a sample of the population is surveyed.
The chances are about 2 out of 3 that an estimate from
the sample would differ from a complete census by less
than the standard error. The chances are about 19 out of
20 that the difference would be less than twice the
standard error.
Table A shows the average standard error for the
major employment status categories, by sex, computed
from data for past months. Estimates of change derived
from the survey are also subject to sampling variability.
The standard error of change for consecutive months is
also shown in table A. The standard errors of level shown
in table A are acceptable approximations of the standard
errors of year to year change.

Illustration: Assume that the tables showed the total
number of persons working a specific number of hours
as 15,000,000, an increase of 500,000 over the previous
month. Linear interpolation in the first column of table B
shows that the standard error of 15,000,000 is about
160,000. Consequently, the chances are about 68 out of
100 that the sample estimate differs by less than 160,000
from the figure which would have been obtained from a
complete count of the number of persons working the
given number of hours. Using the 160,000 as the standard

Where the numerator is a subclass of the denominator,
estimated percentages are relatively more reliable than
the corresponding absolute estimates of the numerator
of the percentage, particularly if the percentage is large
(50 percent or greater). Table D shows the standard

interpolation may be used for percentages and base figures not shown in table D.

COLLECTION

on Labor Turnover. These schedules are of the "shuttle"
type, with space for each month of the calendar year.
The schedule is returned to the respondent each month
by the collecting agency so that the next month's data
can be entered. This procedure assures maximum comparability and accuracy of reporting, since the respondent
can see the figures he has reported for previous months.

Payroll reports provide current information on wage
and salary employment, hours, earnings, and labor turnover in nonfarm establishments, by industry and geographic location.

The BLS 790 provides for entry of data on the number of full- and part-time workers on the payrolls of nonagricultural establishments and, for most industries,
payroll and man-hours of production and related workers
or nonsupervisory workers for the pay period which most
nearly coincides with the standard survey reference week
(the calendar week, Sunday through Saturday, which includes the 12th of the month). The labor turnover
schedule provides for the collection of information on
the total number of accessions and separations, by type,
during the calendar month.

Federal-State Cooperation

Under cooperative arrangements with State agencies,
the respondent fills out only one employment or labor
turnover schedule, which is then used for national, State,
and area estimates. This eliminates duplicate reporting
on the part of respondents and, together with the use of
identical techniques at the national and State levels,
insures maximum comparability of estimates.
State agencies mail the forms to the establishments
and examine the returns for consistency, accuracy, and
completeness. The States use the information to prepare
State and area series and then send the data to the BLS
for use in preparing the national series.

CONCEPTS
Industrial Classification

Shuttle Schedules

Establishments are classified into industries on the
basis of their principal product or activity determined
from information on annual sales volume. This information is collected each year on a supplement to the

Two types of data collection schedules are used:
Form BLS 790—Monthly Report on Employment, Payroll, and Hours; and Form DL 1219—Monthly Report




99

monthly 790 or 1219 report. For an establishment making
more than * one product or engaging in more than one
activity, the entire employment of the establishment is
included under the industry indicated by the most important product or activity.
All national, State, and area employment, hours,
earnings, and labor turnover series are classified in
accordance with the Standard Industrial Classification
Manual Bureau of the Budget, 1957, as amended by the
1963 Supplement.
Industry Employment

Employment data for all except the Federal Government refer to persons on establishment payrolls who received pay for any part of the pay period which includes
the 12th of the month. For Federal Government establishments, employment figures represent the number of
persons who occupied positions on the last day of the
calendar month. Intermittent workers are counted if they
performed any service during the month.

Nonsupervisory employees include employees (not
above the working supervisory level) such as office and
clerical workers, repairmen, salespersons, operators,
drivers, attendants, service employees, linemen, laborers, janitors, watchmen, and similar occupational levels,
and other employees whose services are closely associated with those of the employees listed.
Payroll covers the payroll for full- and part-time
production, construction, or nonsupervisory workers who
received pay for any part of the pay period which includes the 12th of the month. The payroll is reported
before deductions of any kind, e.g., for old-age and
unemployment insurance, group insurance, withholding
tax, bonds, or union dues; also included is pay for overtime, holidays, vacations, and sick leave paid directly
by the firm. Bonuses (unless earned and paid regularly
each pay period), other pay not earned in pay period
reported (e.g., retroactive pay); and the value of free
rent, fuel, meals, or other payment in kind are excluded.

The data exclude proprietors, the self-employed,
unpaid family workers, farm workers, and domestic
workers in households. Salaried officers of corporations
are included. Government employment covers only civilian employees; Federal military personnel are excluded
from total nonagricultural employment.

Man-hours cover man-hours worked or paid for,
during the pay period which includes the 12th of the month,
for production, construction, or nonsupervisory workers.
The man-hours include hours paid for holidays and vacations, and for sick leave when pay is received directly
from the firm.

Persons on an establishment payroll who are on paid
sick leave (when pay is received directly from the firm),
on paid holiday or paid vacation, or who work during a
part of the pay period and are unemployed or on strike
during the rest of the period, are counted as employed.
Not counted as employed are persons who are laid off,
on leave without pay, or on strike for the entire period,
or who are hired but do not report to work during the
period.

Overtime hours cover premium overtime hours of
production and related workers during the pay period
which includes the 12th of the month. Overtime hours
are those for which premiums were paid because the
hours were in excess of the number of hours of either
the straight-time workday or workweek. Weekend and
holiday hours are included only if premium wage rates
were paid. Hours for which only shift differential, hazard,
incentive, or other similar types of premiums were paid
are excluded.

Industry Hours and Earnings

Hours and earnings data are derived fr&m reports of
payrolls and man-hours for production and related
workers in manufacturing and mining, construction
workers in contract construction, and nonsupervisory
employees in the remaining nonfarm components.
Terms are defined below. When the pay period reported is longer than 1 week, figures are reduced to a
weekly basis.

Gross Average Hourly and Weekly Earnings

Average hourly earnings are on a "gross" basis,
reflecting not only changes in basic hourly and incentive
wage rates, but also such variable factors as premium
pay for overtime and late-shift work, and changes in
output of workers paid on an incentive plan. Shifts in the
volume of employment between relatively high-paid and
low-paid work and changes in workers1 earnings in individual establishments also affect the general earnings
averages. Averages for groups and divisions further reflect changes in average hourly earnings for individual
industries.

Production and related workers include working
foremen and all nonsupervisory workers (including leadmen and trainees) engaged in fabricating, processing,
assembling, inspection, receiving, storage, handling,
packing, warehousing, shipping, maintenance, repair,
janitorial and watchman services, product development,
auxiliary production for plant's own use (e.g., power
plant), and recordkeeping and other services closely
associated with the above production operations.

Averages of hourly earnings differ from wage rates.
Earnings are the actual return to the worker for a stated
period of time, while rates are the amounts stipulated for
a given unit of work or time. The earnings series, hewever, does not measure the level of total labor costs on

Construction workers include thevfollowing employees
in the contract construction division: Working foremen,




journeymen, mechanics, apprentices, laborers, etc.,
whether working at the site of construction or in shops
or yards, at jobs (such as precutting and preassembling)
ordinarily performed by members of the construction
trades.

the part of the employer since the following are excluded:
Irregular bonuses, retroactive items, payments of various
welfare benefits, payroll taxes paid by employers, and
earnings for those employees not covered under the production-worker, construction worker, or nonsupervisoryemployee definitions.

Spendable Average Weekly Earnings

Spendable average weekly earnings in current dollars
are obtained by deducting estimated Federal social
security and income taxes from gross weekly earnings.
The amount of income tax liability depends on the number
of dependents supported by the worker and his marital
status, as well as on the level of his gross income.
To reflect these variables, spendable earnings are
computed for a worker with no dependents, and a married worker with three dependents. The computations
are based on the gross average weekly earnings for
all production or nonsupervisory workers in the industry
division without regard to, total family income.

Gross average weekly earnings are derived by multiplying average weekly hours by average hourly earnings.
Therefore, weekly earnings are affected not only by
changes in gross average hourly earnings, but also by
changes in the length of the workweek, part-time work,
stoppages for varying causes, labor turnover, and
absenteeism.

"Real" earnings are computed by dividing the current
Consumer Price Index into the earnings averages for
the current month. The resulting level of earnings expressed in 1957-59 dollars is thus adjusted for changes
in purchasing power since the base period.

Average Weekly Hours

The workweek information relates to the average
hours for which pay was received, and is different from
standard or scheduled hours. Such factors as absenteeism, labor turnover, part—time work, and stoppages cause
average weekly hours to be lower than scheduled hours
of work for an establishment. Group averages further
reflect changes in the workweek of component industries.

Average Hourly Earnings Excluding Overtime

Average hourly earnings excluding premium overtime pay are computed by dividing the total productionworker payroll for the industry group by the sum of total
production-worker man-hours and one-half of total overtime man-hours. Prior to January 1956, these data were
based on the application of adjustment factors to gross
average hourly earnings (as described in the Monthly
Labor Review, May 1950, pp. 537-540). Both methods
eliminate only the earnings due to overtime paid for at
1| times the straight-time rates. No adjustment is made
for other premium payment provisions, such as holiday
work, late-shift work, and overtime rates other than time
and one-half.

Average Overtime Hours

The overtime hours represent that portion of the
gross average weekly hours which were in excess of
regular hours and for which premium payments were
made. If an employee worked on a paid holiday at regular
rates, receiving as total compensation his holiday pay
plus straight-time pay for hours worked that day, no
overtime hours would be reported.
Since overtime hours are premium hours by definition, gross weekly hours and overtime hours do not
necessarily move in the same direction, from month-tomonth; for example, premiums may be paid for hours in
excess of the straight-time workday although less than
a full week is worked. Diverse trends at the industrygroup level may also be caused by a marked change in
gross hours for a component industry where little or no
overtime was worked in both the previous and current
months. In addition, such factors as stoppages, absenteeism, and labor turnover may not have the same influence on overtime hours as on gross hours.

Indexes of Aggregate Weekly Payrolls and Man-Hours

The indexes of aggregate weekly payrolls and manhours are prepared by dividing the current month's
aggregate by the monthly average for the 1957-59 period.
The man-hour aggregates are the product of average
weekly hours and production-worker employment, and the
payroll aggregates are the product of gross average
weekly earnings and production-worker employment .
Labor Turnover

Railroad Hours and Earnings

Labor turnover is the gross movement of wage and
salary workers into and out of employed status with
respect to individual establishments. This movement,
which relates to a calendar month, is divided into two
broad types: Accessions (new hires and rehires) and
separations (terminations of employment initiated by
either employer or employee). Each type of action is
cumulated for a calendar month and expressed as a rate
per 100 employees. The data relate to all employees,
whether full- or part-time, permanent or temporary,
including executive, office, sales, other salaried personnel, and production workers. Transfers to another
establishment of the company are included, beginning
with January 1959.

The figures for class I railroads (excluding switching and terminal companies) are based on monthly data
summarized in the M-300 report of the Interstate Commerce Commission and relate to all employees who received pay during the month, except executives, officials,
and staff assistants (ICC group I). Gross average hourly
earnings are computed by dividing total compensation
by total hours paid for. Average weekly hours are obtained by dividing the total number of hours paid for reduced to a weekly basis, by the number of employees, as
defined above. Gross average weekly earnings are derived by multiplying average weekly hours by average
hourly earnings.

ratio estimation, and (2) periodic adjustment of employment levels to new benchmarks, and (3) the use of size
and regional stratification.

New hires are temporary or permanent additions to
the employment roll of persons who have never before
been employed in the establishment (except employees
transferring from another establishment of the same
company) or of former employees not recalled by the
employer.

The "Link Relative" Technique

From a sample composed of establishments reporting
for both the previous and current months, the ratio of
current month employment to that of the previous month
is computed. This is called a link relative. The estimates
of employment (all employees, including production and
nonproduction workers together) for the current month
are obtained by multiplying the estimates for the previous month by these "link relatives." Other features of
the general procedures are described later in the table,
Summary of Methods for Computing Industry Statistics
on Employment, Hours, Earnings, and Labor Turnover.
Further details are given in the technical notes on

Other accessions, which are not published separately
but are included in total accessions, are all additions to
the employment roll which are not classified as new
hires, including transfers from another establishment
of the company.

Separations are terminations of employment during
the calendar month and are classified according to cause:
Quits, layoffs, and other separations, are defined as

over, which are available upon request.
Size and Regional Stratification

A number of industries are stratified by size of establishment and/or by region, and the stratified production- or nonsupervisory-worker data are used to weight
the hours and earnings into broader industry groupings.
Accordingly, the basic estimating cell for an employment,
hours, or earnings series, as the term is used in the
summary of computational methods may be a whole
industry or a size stratum, a region stratum, or a size
stratum of a region within an industry.

Quits are terminations of employment initiated by
employees, failure to report after being hired, and unauthorized absences, if on the last day of the month the
person has been absent more than 7 consecutive calendar
days.
Layoffs are suspensions without pay lasting or expected to last more than 7 consecutive calendar days,
initiated by the employer without prejudice to the worker.
0 the r sep aration s, which are not published separately
but are included in total separations, are terminations
of employment because of discharge, permanent disability, death, retirement, transfers to another establishment of the company, and entrance into the Armed Forces
for a period expected to last more than 30 consecutive
calendar days.
Comparability With Employment Series

Employment estimates are periodically compared
with comprehensive counts of employment which provide
"benchmarks" for the various nonagriculturalindustries,
and appropriate adjustments are made as indicated. The
industry estimates are currently projected from March
1964 levels. Normally, benchmark adjustments are made
annually.
The primary source of benchmark information is the
employment data, by industry, compiled quarterly by
State agencies from reports of establishments covered
under State unemployment insurance laws. These tabulations, covering three-fourths of the total nonfarm employment in the United States, are prepared under the
direction of the Bureau of Employment Security. Benchmark data for the residual are obtained from the records
of the Social Security Administration, the Interstate
Commerce Commission, and a number of other agencies
in private industry or government.

Month-to-month changes in total employment in manufacturing industries reflected by labor turnover rates
are not comparable with the changes shown in the Bureau's
employment series for the following reasons: (1) Accessions and separations are computed for the entire calendar month; the employment reports refer to the pay
period which includes the 12th of the month; and (2) employees on strike are not counted as turnover actions
although such employees are excluded from the employment estimates if the work stoppage extends through the
report period.

The estimates relating to the benchmark month are
compared with new benchmark levels, industry by industry. If revisions are necessary, the monthly series
of estimates are adjusted between the new benchmark
and the preceding one, and the new benchmark for each
industry is then carried forward progressively to the
current month by use of the sample trends. Thus, under

ESTIMATING METHODS

The principal features of the procedure used to estimate employment for the industry statistics are (1) the
use of the "link relative" technique, which is a form of




Benchmark Adjustments

102

this procedure, the benchmark is used to establish the
level of employment, while the sample is used to measure
the month-to-month changes in the level.
Data for all months since the last benchmark to which
the series has been adjusted are therefore subject to
revision. To provide users of the data with a convenient
reference source for the revised data, the BLS publishes
as soon as possible after each benchmark revision a
summary volume of employment, hours, earnings, and
labor turnover statistics. The current volume in this

s e r i e s is Employment and Earnings Statistics for the
United States, 1909-65, Bulletin 1312-3 (Dec. 1965), and
contains monthly statistics from the earliest date of
availability through August 1965.

In the context of the BLS employment and labor
turnover statistics program, with their emphasis on producing timely data at minimum cost, a sample must be
obtained which will provide coverage of a sufficiently
large segment of the universe to provide reasonably
reliable estimates that can be published promptly and
regularly. The present sample meets these specifications for most industries. With its use, the BLS is able
to produce preliminary estimates each month for many
industries and for many geographic levels within a few
weeks after reports are mailed by respondents, and at a
somewhat later data, statistics in considerably greater
industrial detail. The tendency of such a sample to
produce biased .estimates of the level of earnings for
certain industries is counteracted by the stratified estimating procedure described under "EstimatingMethods."

THE SAMPLE
Design

Coverage

The sampling plan used in the current employment
statistics program is an optimum allocation design known
as "sampling proportionate to average size of establishment.11 The universe of establishments is stratified first
by industry and then within each industry by size of
establishment in terms of employment. For each industry
the total size of samp e is distributed among the size
class cells on the basis of average employment per
establishment in each cell. In practice, this is equivalent
to distributing the predetermined total number of establishments required in the sample among the cells on the
basis of the ratio of employment in each cell to total
employment in the industry. Within each stratum the
sample members are selected at random.

The BLS sample of establishment employment and
payrolls is the largest monthly sampling operation in the
field of social statistics. The table that follows shows
the approximate proportion of total employment in each
industry division covered by the group of establishments
furnishing monthly employment data. The coverage for
individual industries within the division may vary from
the proportions shown.
Approximate size and coverage of BLS employment
and payrolls sample, March 1964 1
Employees
Industry division

Under this type of design, large establishments fall
into the sample with certainty. The size of the samples
for the various industries is determined empirically
on the basis of experience and of cost considerations.
In a manufacturing industry in which a high proportion of
total employment is concentrated in a relatively few
establishments, a large percentage of total employment
is included in the sample. Consequently, the sample
design for such industries provides for a complete
census of the larger establishments with only a few
chosen from among the smaller establishments or none
at all if the concentration o* employment is great
enough. On the other hand, in an industry in which a
large proportion of total employment is in small establishments, the sample design calls for inclusion of all
large establishments, and also far a substantial number
of the smaller ones. Many industries in the trade and
service divisions fall into this category. In order to keep
the sample to a size which can be handled by available
resources, it is necessary to accept samples in these
divisions with a smaller proportion of universe employment than is the case for most manufacturing industries.
Since individual establishments in these nonmanufacturing divisions generally show less fluctuation from
regular cyclical or seasonal patterns than establishments
in manufacturing industries, these smaller samples
(in terms of employment) generally produce reliable
estimates.

individual establishments (resulting from changes in
their product), which are not reflected in the levels of
estimates until the data are adjusted to new benchmarks.
At more detailed industry levels, particularly within
manufacturing, changes in classification are the major
cause of benchmark adjustments; however, they become
less important at broader aggregations of industries.
Another cause of differences, generally minor, between
the estimates and the benchmark arises from improvements in the quality of benchmark data. A detailed description of the latest adjustment, "BLS Establishment
Estimates Revised to March 1964 Benchmark Levels"
was published in the December 1965 issue of Employment
and Earnings. Reprints of this article are available

For the most recent months, national estimates of
employment, hours, and earnings are preliminary, and
are so footnoted in the tables. These particular figures
are based on less than the full sample and consequently
are subject to revisions when all the reports in the
sample have been received. Studies of these revisions
of preliminary estimates in the past indicate that they
have been relatively small (and most frequently upward)
for employment, and even smaller for hours and earnings.

Reliability of the Employment Estimate

One measure of the reliability of an employment
estimate projected from a benchmark is the amount by
which it differs from the new benchmark at the next
adjustment period. The BLS uses this criterion rather
than the standard error of the estimates. An approximation of the accuracy of the BLS employment estimates
is shown by the following table:

STATISTICS FOR STATES AND AREAS

State and area employment, hours, earnings, and
labor turnover data are collected and prepared by State
agencies in cooperation with BLS. The area statistics
relate to metropolitan areas. Definitions for all areas
are published each year in the issue of Employment and
Earning sand Monthly Report on the Labor Force that contains State and area annual averages. Changes in
definitions are noted as they occur. Additional industry
detail may be obtained from the State agencies listed
on the inside back cover of each issue. These statistics
are based on the same establishment reports used by
BLS for preparing national estimates. For employment, the sum of the State figures may differ slightly
from the equivalent official U.S. totals on a national
basis, because some States have more recent benchmarks than others and because of the effects of differing
industrial and geographic stratification.

UNEMPLOYMENT INSURANCE DATA
Insured unemployment represents the number of persons reporting a week of unemployment under an unemployment Insurance program. It includes some persons
who are working part time who would be counted as employed in the payroll and household surveys. Excluded
are persons who have exhausted their benefit rights, new
workers who have not earned rights to unemployment
insurance, and persons losing jobs not covered by unemployment insurance systems (agriculture, State and local
government, domestic service, self-employment, unpaid
family work, nonprofit organizations, and firms below a
minimum size). The rate of insured unemployment is the
number of insured unemployed expressed as a percent of
average covered employment in a 12-month period ending
6 to 8 months prior to the week of reference. Initial

claims are notices filed by those losing jobs covered by.
an unemployment insurance program that they are starting a period of unemployment. A claimant who continues
to be unemployed a full week is then counted in the
insured, unemployment figure.
Because of differences in State laws and procedures
under which unemployment insurance programs are operated, State unemployment rates generally indicate, but
do not precisely measure, differences among the individual States. Persons wishing to receive a detailed
description of the nature, sources, inclusions and exclusions, and limitations of unemployment insurance data
should address their inquiries to Bureau of Employment
Security, Washington, D.C.

SEASONAL ADJUSTMENT
Many economic statistics reflect a regularly recurring
seasonal movement which can be estimated on the basis
of past experience. By eliminating that part of the change
which can be ascribed to usual seasonal variation, it is
possible to observe the cyclical and other nonseasonal
movements in the series. However, in evaluating deviations from the seasonal pattern—that is, changes in a
seasonally adjusted series—it is important to note that
seasonal adjustment is merely an approximation based
on past experience. Seasonally adjusted estimates have
a broader margin of possible error than the original
data on which they are based, since they are subject not
only to sampling and other errors but, in addition, are
affected by the uncertainties of the seasonal adjustment
process itself. Seasonally adjusted series for selected
labor force and establishment data are published regularly
in Employment and Earnings and Monthly Report on the
Labor Force,

gate weekly man-hours, seasonally adjusted, for the
appropriate component industries and dividing by the
1957-59 base.
The seasonally adjusted establishment data for Federal Government are based on a series which excludes
the Christmas temporary help employed by the Post
Office Department in December. The employment of these
workers constitutes the only significant seasonal change
in Federal Government employment during the winter
months. Furthermore, the volume of such employment
may change substantially from year to year because of
administrative decisions by the Post Office Department.
Hence, it was considered desirable to exclude this group
from the data upon which the seasonally adjusted series
is based. Factors currently in use for the establishment
data are shown in the December 1965 Employment and
Earnings, and revisions will be made coincidental with
the adjustment of series to new benchmark levels.

The seasonal adjustment method used for these series
is an adaptation of the standard ratio-to-moving average
method, with a provision for "moving" adjustment factors
to take account of changing seasonal patterns. A detailed
description of the method is given in the booklet, The BLS
Seasonal Factor Method (1964), which may be obtained
from the Bureau on request. An earlier version of the
method is described in Appendix G of the 1962 Report of
the President's Committee to Appraise Employment and
Unemployment Statistics, Measuring Employment and
Unemployment,
For establishment data, the seasonally adjusted
series on weekly hours and labor turnover rates for
industry groupings are computed by applying factors
directly to the corresponding unadjusted series, but
seasonally adjusted employment totals for all employees
and production workers by industry divisions are obtained by summing the seasonally adjusted data which
are published for component industries. Indexes of
aggregate weekly man-hours seasonally adjusted, for
mining, contract construction, and the major industries
in manufacturing are obtained by multiplying average
weekly hours, seasonally adjusted, by production workers,
seasonally adjusted and dividing by the 1957-59 base.
For total, manufacturing, and durable and nondurable
goods, the indexes of aggregate weekly man-hours,
seasonally adjusted, are obtained by summing the aggre-




For each of the three major labor force components—
agricultural and nonagricultural employment, and unemployment—data for four age-sex groups (male and
female workers under age 20, and age 20 and over) are
separately adjusted for seasonal variation and are then
added to give seasonally adjusted total figures. In ordei
to produce seasonally adjusted total employment and
civilian labor force data, the appropriate series are
aggregated. The seasonally adjusted rate of unemployment is derived by dividing the seasonally adjusted
figure for total unemployment (the sum of four seasonally adjusted age-sex components) by the figure for the
seasonally adjusted civilian labor force (the sum of
twelve seasonally adjusted age-sex components).
The seasonal adjustment factors applying to current
data are based on a pattern shown by past experience.
These factors are revised in the light of the pattern
revealed by subsequent data. Revised seasonally adjusted
series for major components of the labor force based on
data through December 1965 are published in the February
1966 Employment and Earnings and Monthly Report on
the Labor Force, Revisions will be made annually as each
additional year's data become available.

Summary of Methods for Computing Industry Statistics
on Employment, Hours, Earnings, and Labor Turnover

Basic estimating cells (industry, region,
size, or region/size cell)

Aggregate industry levels (divisions, groups and,
where stratified, individual cells')

Monthly Data

All employees . .

All-employee estimate for previous month multiplied by ratio of all employees in current
month to all employees in previous month, for
sample establishments which reported for both
months.

Sum of all-employee estimates for component
cells.

Production or nonsupervisory workers;
women employees .

All-employee estimate for current month multi plied by (1) ratio of production or nonsupervisory workers to all employees in sample
establishments for current month, (2) ratio of
women to all employees.

Sum of production- or nonsupervisory-worker
estimates, or estimates of women employees,
for component cells.

Gross average weekly hours

Production- or nonsupervisory-worker man-hours
divided by number of production or nonsupervisory workers.

Average, weighted by production- or nonsupervisory-worker employment, of the average weekly
hours for component cells.

Average weekly overtime hours .

Production-worker overtime man-hours divided
by number of production workers.

Average, weighted by production-worker employment, of the average weekly overtime hours for
component cells.

Gross average hourly earnings .

Total production- or nonsupervisory-worker payroll divided by total production- or nonsupervisory-worker man-hours.

Average, weighted by aggregate man-hours, of the
average hourly earnings for component cells.

Gross average weekly earnings . .

Product of gross average weekly hours and
average hourly earnings.

Product of gross average weekly hours and average
hourly earnings.

Labor turnover rates (total, men, and
women).

The number of particular actions (e.g., quits)
in reporting firms divided by total employment
in those firms. The result is multiplied by
100. For men (or women), the number of men
(women) who quit is divided by the total number
of men (women) employed.

Average, weighted by employment, of the rates for
component cells.

Annual Average Data

All employees and production or non-

Sum of monthly estimates divided by 12.

by average weekly hours) divided by annual sum
of employment.

Annual total of aggregate man-hours for production
or nonsupervisory workers divided by annual sum
of employment for these workers.

Average weekly overcime hours . .

Annual total of aggregate overtime man-hours
(production-worker employment multiplied by
average weekly overtime hours) divided by
annual sum of employment.

Annual total of aggregate overtime man-hours for
production workers divided by annual sum of
employment for these workers.

Gross average hourly earnings

Annual total of aggregate payrolls (productionor nonsupervisory-worker employment multiplied
by weekly earnings) divided by annual aggregate
man-hours.

Annual total of aggregate payrolls divided by annual
aggregate man-hours.

Gross average weekly earnings .
