Caution
Periodically, the Bureau adjusts the
industry employment series to a recent

These adjustments may also a f f e c t the
hours and earnings series because employment level8 are used as weights. All
industry statistics after March 1964, the
present benchmark date, are therefore
subject to revision.
Beginning with December 1965 and
subsequent issues of E m p l o y m e n t and
Earnings, data in tables B-l through B-6,
C-l through C-7, and D-l through D-4 are
b a s e d on March 1964 be n c h m a r k s •
Therefore, issues of Emp 1 oy•me nt and
Earnings prior to December 1965 cannot
be used in conjunction with national industry data now shown in sections B, C, and
D. Comparable data for prior periods
w i l l be published in E m p l o y m e n t and
Earnings Statistics for the United States,
1909-65, BLS Bulletin 1312-3.
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 prior historical statistics.

ESTABLISHMENT DATA REVISED
The national figures on employment in industry, shown in this issue of Employment and
Earnings, have been adjusted to March 1964 benchmarks (comprehensive counts of employment).
This benchmark revision, which is a standard feature of the current employment statistics program, affected industry payroll employment data from April 1963 forward. Because the employment figures are used as weights, the adjustment to new benchmark levels has caused revisions,
in some cases, in the hours, earnings, and labor turnover series. In addition, the 1957
Standard Industrial Classification ( S I C ) codes used in classifying establishments have been
amended slightly by the 1963 Supplement. The data in this report reflect the 1963 amendments.
The article, "BLS Establishment Employment Estimates Revised to March 1964 Benchmark
Levels," in this issue, summarizes the effects of these revisions.
NEW DATA
This issue introduces estimates for nearly 200 series which have not been published before
on a monthly basis.
The most noteworthy aspect of this expansion is the fact that average
earnings and hours figures are being published for the first time for two entire major industry
divisions, Trade, and Finance, Insurance, and Real Estate. This means that averages are
published for 5 of the 8 major divisions, the other 3 being Manufacturing, Mining, and Contract
Construction.
Summary tables of revised establishment data are presented, by month from January 1963
through August 1965, for the major industry series. Both actual and seasonally adjusted figures
are given. (See page 7fo)
As in the past, new seasonal adjustment factors for the establishment data have been developed coincidentally with the adjustment to new benchmark levels. These new factors for all
of the seasonally adjusted establishment data in Employment and Earnings are shown beginning
on page 78,
NEW REFERENCE VOLUMES
Employment and Earnings Statistics for the United States, 1909-65, BLS Bulletin 1312-3,
to be available in January 1966, replaces BLS Bulletin 1312-2 issued in 1964. All series
presented in this bulletin have been adjusted to March 1964 benchmarks and the classification
by industry is based on the 1963 Supplement of the 1957 Standard Industrial Classification
Manual. For each national series shown in the B, C, and D sections of Employment and
Earnings, detailed data are provided from the earliest date of availability through August 1965.
Employment and Earnings Statistics for States and Areas, 1939-64, BLS Bulletin 1370-2,
released last summer, replaces BLS Bulletin 1370-1. Data include annual averages for more
than 6,000 series on payroll employment, and over 3,000 series on hours and earnings for the
50 States, the District of Columbia, and 159 major metropolitan areas.
BLS Establishment Employment Estimates
Revised to March 1964 Benchmark Levels
John T. Tucker*
In this issue of Employment and Earnings, the
national employment estimates derived from the
monthly establishment survey have been adjusted
to actual employment levels for March 1964. This
has involved revising all figures back to March
1963. Such revisions to new benchmark levels, an
essential part of the employment and labor turnover statistics program, are made annually for most
sectors of the economy. Most published series
are affected by the revision, beginning at the finest
industrial classification level and extending through
successively inclusive series to total nonagricultural employment. Estimates of hours and earnings
and labor turnover, which are weighted by employment estimates, may also be revised as a result
of the changes in employment levels.
Other improvements have been incorporated
in this revision. (1) The 1963 amendments to the
1957 Standard Industrial Classification (SIC System) have been introduced. Although the amendments affected.only a few publi shed industry
series, they provide for new series on guided missiles and spacecraft and the two hosiery industries.
(2) Additional establishment-size and r e g i o n a l
stratification has been introduced into the preparation of estimates of employment, hours, and earnings. Based on experience since 1959 when stratification by size and/or region was first introduced,
the revised and expanded stratification patterns
provide more accurate current estimates, particularly with respect to hours and earnings. (3) Both
the current releases and the historical volume are
being expanded to provide monthly series for many
additional industries. Publication of these series
is made possible by the large increase in the number of monthly reports which have been added to
the sample during the past year or more. The full
effect of this expansion in publication detail is
discussed in a later section.
Why Benchmark Adjustments
The current estimates of employment in nonagricultural establishments are derived from reports submitted each month by a sample of the Nation's industrial, commercial, and go vernment
establishments. The monthly changes shown by
the sample are used to carry forward estimates of
the total in each industry. Since the monthly data
are estimates, periodic checks of their accuracy
are n e e d e d . The sample-derived data are thus
checked once each year against a benchmark, or
complete count, the most recent representing employment for March 1964.
*Qf the Division of Industry Employment Statistics, Bureau
of Labor Statistics.
Benchmark Sources
The most important source of benchmark data
is the compulsory unemployment insurance contributions (tax) report that the covered employer files
each quarter with his State employment security
agency. After the employers' reports are processed,
classified, and tabulated by industry, each State
forwards its data to the U.S. Department of Labor's
Bureau of Employment Security (BES), which has
Federal supervisory authority over the unemployment insurance systems of the States. The employment counts are then made available by BES to the
Bureau of Labor Statistics, for use in preparing
the national benchmarks.
These unemployment insurance figures are augmented by data from other s o u r c e s to bring the
benchmarks up to complete counts for all nonagricultural establishments. State unemployment insurance data constitute about three-fourths of the
universe, but employers of fewer than fourpersons
are excluded from coverage in some States and certain types of activities are, likewise, not covered.
Important sources of benchmark data for employment not covered by unemployment insurance include the Social Security Administration (small
firms and nonprofit organizations), Bureau of the
Census (State and local governments), the Civil
Service Commission (Federal civilian employment), and the Interstate Commerce Commission
(interstate railroads).
Estimates Near Benchmark Levels
A measure of the accuracy of the BLS national
employment estimates isprovided by a comparison
with the benchmark, which shows the amount of
error that has accumulated over 12 months through
use of the sample, and through changes in the industrial classification of individual plants. Table 1
presents this comparison, as of March 1964, for
total nonagricultural employment and broad industry
divisions. In most instances for recent revisions,
major industry divisions have varied from benchmarks by less than 1 percent. A comparison of
the size of the revisions made since 1959 is presented in table 2.
*For a detailed description of benchmark preparation and
sources, see "The 1959 Benchmarks for the BLS Payroll Employment Statistics," by Samuel Schechter, Monthly Labor
Review, December 1962, pp. 1385-1392.
About 30 percent of total nonagricultural employment is in manufacturing. For this division,
with 17.0 million employees, the difference between the benchmark and the estimate was only
0.2 percent. Because turns in the economy are frequently forecast by changes first occurring in this
sector, the accuracy of employment estimates for
manufacturing is particularly important.

Due to the importance of manufacturing, estimates are published in substantial industry detail.
Of the 21 major manufacturing groups, 17 groups,
with 90 percent of manufacturing employment, differed from the benchmark by 1 percent or less
(table 3). Shifts in the industrial classification of
several large plants caused most of the difference
in ordnance and petroleum. The effect of the
changes in industry classification is discussed in
detail in the next section.
The major manufacturing industry groups are
further subdivided, into the 3- and 4-digit (SIC)
industries for which employment estimates are
presented in this publication each month. Of the
120 3-digit i n d u s t r i e s , 91, or more than threefourths, varied from their benchmarks by less than
3 percent (table 4).
Less than .05 percent.

State and local benchmark derived from October 1962 Census of Governments. Last previous revision of estimates was
made to benchmarks based on April 1957 Census of Govern*
ments.
Reasons Estimates Differ from Benchmarks
Benchmarks and estimates differ mainly because the change that is actually occurring in employment is not precisely reflected by the experience of establishments included in the sample.
As the number of employees included in the sample
establishments approaches the complete count,
the sampling error, or the gap between the results
obtained from a sample and those that would have
been secured if a complete count had been taken,
diminishes. However, important constraints operate to limit the size of the sample. Cost and
p r o m p t n e s s in publishing the estimates each
month are prime considerations. To mail, review,
and prepare estimates from several million reports,
even with the use of modern high-speed equipment,
would be excessively expensive and time-consuming
compared with the cost of publishing estimates
derived from the approximately 140,000 reports
which constitute the BLS sample.
Compared with the benchmark count of 56.8
million workers on establishment payrolls for March
1964, the total nonagricultural figure based on the
sample was higher by 6,000. Of the eight broad
industry divisions, six, accounting for about 80
percent of nonfarm employment at that time, differed by less than 1 percent~mining, manufacturing, transportation-public utilities, trade, financeinsurance-real estate, and service. Of the two remaining divisions, contract construction estimates
were 1.5 percent higher than the benchmark and
government e s t i m a t e s were 1.0 percent lower,
caused by a revision of the State and local government series.

3-digit industries classified according to the 1957 Standard Industrial Classification Manual and published by BLS.
Within the confines of the financial and personnel resources available, the objective is to design a sample which will minimize the error in the
resulting estimates. Here a knowledge of employment fluctuations in the various i n d u s t r i e s is
brought into play. A relatively small sample may
suffice for industries in which employment is either
relatively stable or fluctuates in regular seasonal
patterns. However, in industries where employment movements are highly sensitive to economic
conditions and cyclical changes, a larger sample
coverage is needed. Manufacturing industries, particularly durable-goods producing industries, illustrate this condition. Fortunately, hard-goods manufacturing industries are frequently characterized
by large units so that a sample consisting of relatively few reports might represent a substantial
part of total employment.
In addition to sampling and reporting errors,
the other major reason that estimates differ from
the benchmark levels is the change in industrial
classification of establishments since the last
previous benchmark adjustment. Establishments
are classified by industry according to their major
product. Many plants make more than one product.
When the composition of their output changes so
that what was once a secondary product becomes
a primary one, the classification of the establishment is changed to the industry of its new major
product. This change is not introduced into the employment estimates at the time it occurs, but only
at the time of the annual benchmark adjustment,
on the basis of product information reported annually. Thus, differences between estimates and
benchmarks for an industry may result because the
estimates are tied to the former benchmark levels
and do not reflect intervening c l a s s i f i c a t i o n
changes.
Vlll
The BLS computes series on average hourly
earnings, average weekly hours, and labor turnover
rates for a large number of industries. For the primary estimating group—the most detailed industries
—the hours, earnings, and labor turnover series are
computed directly from reported figures. Series for
more i n c l u s i v e industries, however, require a
weighting mechanism to yield meaningful averages.
To compute this average for the broader industry
groupings, the average in each industry is weighted
by the number of workers in that industry. The
benchmarks provide a means of maintaining the
accuracy of these weights.
Differences between the benchmarks and the
estimates may result in a reallocation of weights.
However, to influence the a v e r a g e for a broad
group, the changes have to be large and must affect industries which have substantially higher or
lower averages than do other industries in their
group. The changes caused by using employment
figures revised to the latest benchmark (March
1964), as weights for hours, earnings, and labor
turnover, were small. *
Expansion of Published Detail
The revision afforded an opportunity to expand
the number of industries for which data are made
available. Thus, in this issue of Employment and
Earnings, table B-2is expanded to include employment data for 36 additional industries, and table
C-2 provides hours and earnings series for 35 industries not previously published.
The expansion in employment data is concentrated in nonmanufacturing industries, particularly
in the service and trade divisions. Monthly employment estimates are introduced for 11 of the important and rapidly expanding service industries which
collectively employ 5.5 million employees. In trade,
information is provided for 9 additional industries
with 5.0 million employees.
Publication of hours and earnings series is

*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 dayswere assigned to different classifications, mostly to the unemployed. Data by sex, shown in table A-2, were adjusted for the years 1948-56.
^Not 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 600,000; labor force, total employment, and agricultural employment by about 350,000, primarily affecting the
figures for total and males. Other categories were relatively unaffected.
TData 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.
'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 dian direct enumeration.

Beginning with January 1939, transfer* between establishments of the same firm are included in total accessions and total separations, therefore rates for these items are
not strictly comparable with prior date. Transfers comprise part of other accessions and other separations, the rates for which are not shown separately.
NOTE: Data include Alaska and Hawaii beginning 1959. This inclusion has not significantly affected the labor turnover series.
Data for the current month are preliminary.

SEASONAL FACTORS
The following tables present seasonal adjustment factors for all series in the establishment section of this periodical,
which have been revised, as in the past, coincidental with the adjustment of the industry employment series to new benchmarks. These factors will be revised at the time the industry employment statistics are again adjusted to later benchmarks
and more current data are available. The seasonal movements are measured in order to adjust the data statistically for
such recurring events as warm and cold weather, crop-growing cycles, holidays, vacations, regular industry model changeover periods, and the like. These movements are generally the largest single component of month-to-month changes in
employment, hours, and labor turnover. The seasonal factors which follow enable the analyst to remove these influences
from the data in order to determine more basic trends.

Technical Note
Additional information concerning the preparation of the
labor force, employment, hours and earnings, and labor
turnover series—concepts and scope, survey methods,
and limitations—is contained in technical notes for each
of these series, available from the Bureau of Labor Statistics free of charge. Use order blank on page 13-E.
Employment
INTRODUCTION
The statistics in this periodical are compiled from
two major sources: (1) household interviews and (2) payroll reports from employers.
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 a comprehensive measure of the labor force, i.e., the total number
of persons 14 years of age and over who are employed or
unemployed. It also provides data on their personal and
economic characteristics such 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
throughout the country and is based on the activity or
status reported for the calendar week including the 12th
of the month.
Data based on 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 on 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.
Relation between the household and payroll series
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 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 factors which
have a differential effect on levels and trends of the two
series are described as follows:
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.
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 force. 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.
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,
whether or not they were paid by their employers for the
time off. In the figures based on payroll reports, persons
on paid sick leave, paid vacation, or paid holiday are
included, but not those on leave without pay for the
entire payroll period.
Hours of Work
The household s u r v e y 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
1-E
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.
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.
Agricultural employment estimates of the Department of Agriculture. The principal differences in coverage are the inclusion of persons under 14 in the Statistical Research S e r v i c e (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.
Employment covered by State unemployment insur~
ance 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*1, Bureau of Labor Statistics Report No.
279. This report is available from BLS on request.)
tions 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*1 and "total
labor force,'* are obtained from the Department of Defense.
Until August 1962, the sample for CPS was spread
over 333 areas. Between August 1962 and March 1963,
the number of sample areas was increased to 357,
comprising 701 counties and independent cities, with coverage in 50 States and the District of Columbia. This
revision takes account of the changes in population distribution and characteristics shown by the I960 Census.
The number of households remains unchanged at 35,000.
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,
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.
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 5,000 sample 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 approximately 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.
Inmates of institutions and persons under 14 years
of age are not covered in the regular monthly enumera-
2-E
CONCEPTS
Employed Persons comprise (a) all those who during the survey week did any work at all either as paid
employees, or in their own business or profession, or on
their own farm, or who worked 15 hours or more as unpaid
workers on a farm or in a business 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, or labor-management dispute, or
because they were taking time off for various other reasons, whether or not they were paid by their employers
for the time off.
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.
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 (e.g., Mexican
migratory farm workers).
Excluded are persons whose only activity consisted
of work around the house (such as own home housework,
and painting or repairing own home) or volunteer work for
religious , charitable, and similar organizations.
Unemployed Persons comprise all persons who did
not work at all during the survey week and were looking
for work, regardless of whe.ther 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 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. Persons in this latter category will usually be
residents of a community in which there are only a few
dominant industries which were shut down during the
survey week. Not included in this category are persons
who say they were not looking for work because they were
too old, too young, or handicapped in any way.
their most recent employment. Average duration is an
arithmetic mean computed from a distribution by single
weeks of unemployment.
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.
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.
Occupation, Industry, and Class of Worker 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
occupation and industry groups used in data derived from
the CPS household interviews are defined as in the I960
Census of Population. Information on the detailed categories included in these groups is available upon request.
The industrial classification system used in the
Census of Population and the current Population Survey
differs somewhat from that used by the BLS in its reports
on employment, by industry. Employment levels by industry from the household survey, although useful for
many analytical purposes, are not published in order to
avoid public misunderstanding since they differ from the
payroll series because of differences in classification,
sampling variability, and other reasons. The industry
figures from the household survey are used as a base for
published distributions on hours of work, v unemployment
rates, and other characteristics of industry groups such
as age, sex, and occupation.
The Unemployment Rate represents the number
unemployed as a percent of the civilian labor force, i.e.,
the sum of the employed and unemployed. This measure
can also be computed for groups within the labor force
classified by sex, age, marital status, color, etc. When
applied to industry and occupation groups, the labor
force base for the unemployment rate also represents the
sum of the employed and the unemployed, the latter classified according to industry and occupation of their latest
full-time civilian job.
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 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.
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 their line of work or in the community. For
persons on layoff, duration of unemployment represents
the number of full weeks since the t e r m i n a t i o n of
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.

current estimates of the population by age, sex, and
color. These estimates are prepared by carrying forward
the most recent census data (I960) to take account of
subsequent aging of the population, mortality, and migration between the United States and other countries.
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 fulltime work. "Other reasons" include: Labor dispute,
bad weather, own illness, vacation, demands of home
housework, school, no desire for full-time work and fulltime worker only during peak season.
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.
Reliability of the Estimates
ESTIMATING METHODS
The estimating procedure is essentially one of
using sample results to obtain percentages of the population in a given category. The published estimates are
then obtained by multiplying these percentage distributions by independent estimates of the population. The
principal steps involved are shown below. 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.
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 n on farm, and rural farm). The proportion of sample
households not interviewed varies from 3 to 5 percent
depending on weather, vacations, etc.
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 is a measure of sampling variability, that i s , 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.
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:

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.
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-month 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.

seen that the standard error of the 500,000 increase is
about 135,000.

The reliability of an estimated percentage, com*
puted by using sample data for both numerator and denominator, depends upon both the size of the percentage
and the size of the total upon which the percentage is
based. 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
errors for percentages derived from the survey. Linear
interpolation may be used for percentages and base figures not shown in table D.

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

Establishment Data
AH 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.
COLLECTION
Payroll reports provide current Information on wage
and salary employment, hours, earnings, and labor turnover in nonfarm establishments, by industry and geographic location.
Industry Employment
Federal-State Cooperation
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.
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.
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.
Shuttle Schedules
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.
Two types of data collection schedules are used:
Form BLS 790—Monthly Report on Employment, Payroll, and Hours; and Form DL 1219—Monthly Report
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.
Industry Hours and Earnings
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.
Hours and earnings data are derived from 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. For
Federal Government, hours and earnings relate to all
employees who worked or received pay during the pay
period which includes the 12th of the month. Terms are
defined below. When the pay period reported is longer
than 1 week, figures are reduced to a weekly basis.
Production and related workers include working
CONCEPTS
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.
Industrial Classification
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
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.
Construction workers include the following employees
in the contract construction division: Working foremen,
journeymen, mechanics, apprentices, laborers, etc.,
6-E
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.
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.
N on supervisory 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.
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.
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.
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 Overtime Hours
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
Railroad Hours and Earnings
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.
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, however, does not measure the level of total labor costs on
7-E
Accessions are the total number of permanent and
temporary additions to the employment roll, including
both new and rehired employees.
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, 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 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 marital status,
family composition, or total family income.
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.
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.
"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.
Separations are terminations of employment during
the calendar month and are classified according to cause:
Quits, layoffs, and other separations, are defined as
follows:
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
\\ 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.
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.
Other separations, 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.
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 employement.
Comparability With Employment Series
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 no*t counted as turnover actions
although such employees are excluded from the employment estimates if the work stoppage extends through the
report period.
Labor Turnover
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.
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
8-E
ratio estimation, and (2) periodic adjustment of employment levels to new benchmarks, and (3) the use of size
and regional stratification.
this procedure, the benchmark is used to establish the
level of employment, while the sample is used to measure
the mo nth-to-mo nth 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
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
Measurement of Employment, Hours, and Earnings in Nonagricultural Industries and on Measuremnt of Labor Turnover, which are available upon request.
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.
THE SAMPLE
Design
The sampling plan used in the current employment
statistics program is an optimum allocation design known
as "sampling proportionate to average size of establishment." 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 sample 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.
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.
Benchmark Adjustments
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 of 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 for 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.
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.
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
9-E
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 date, 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 table below shows the approximate coverage, in
terms of employment, of the labor turnover sample.

Coverage
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.
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:

For some detailed industries, the relative size of
the correction to benchmarks is somewhat greater than
is indicated for the major industry divisions in the
preceding table.
Differences between the benchmarks and the estimates, as well as the sampling and response errors,
result from changes in the industrial classification of
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
Since a few establishments do not report payroll and
man-hour information, hours and earnings estimates may
be based on a slightly smaller sample than employment
estimates.

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

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
Earnings 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.
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.
Users of State and area employment, hours, and
earnings statistics may be interested in Employment and
Earnings Statistics for States and Areas, 1939-64, BLS
Bulletin 1370-2. For the States and the areas shown in
the B and C sections of this periodical, all the annual
average data for the detailed industry statistics currently
published by each cooperating State agency are presented
from the earliest data of availability of each series
through 1964.
STATISTICS FOR STATES AND AREAS
State and area employment, hours, earnings, and
labor turnover data are collected and prepared by State
Seasonal Adjustment
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 aggregate weekly man-hours, seasonally adjusted, for the
appropriate component industries and dividing by the
1957-59 base.
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.
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 Presidents Committee to Appraise Employment and
Unemployment Statistics, Measuring Employment and
Unemployment.
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.
11-E
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.
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).
For each of the three ma jor 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 order
to produce seasonally adjusted total employment and
civilian labor force data, the appropriate series are
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 1964 are published in the February
1965 Employment and Earnings, Revisions will be made
annually as each additional year's data become available.
