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 after
March 1962, the present benchmark date,
are therefore subject to revision.
Beginning with September 1963 and
subsequent issues of Baployaent and
Earnings, data in tables B-l through
B-6, C-l through C-7, and D-l through
D-lt are based on March 1962 benchmarks.
Therefore,
issues of Employment and
Earnings prior to September 19b3 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
StatesT 1909-62, BIS Bulletin 1312-1,
which may be purchased from the Superintendent of Doowents for $3.50. For
an individual industry, earlier data
may
be obtained upon request to the
Bureau.

THE METHOD OF SEASONAL ADJUSTMENT FOR
UNEMPLOYMENT AND OTHER LABOR FORCE SERIES
In accordance with its regular practice at the beginning of each year, the
Bureau of Labor Statistics has recomputed and revised the seasonal adjustment
factors for unemployment and other labor force series. The revisions incorporate
data through December 1963 and are based on an improved method resulting from the
Bureau's research activities during 1963. Combinations of directly adjusted component series are used in the same way as in 1963. The revised seasonal adjustment
factors and seasonally adjusted data shown on pages v through xvii replace those
listed in the March 1963 Employment and Earnings, which were based on data
through December 1962.
Method of Adjustment
The seasonal adjustment method used for these series continues to be an
adaptation of the traditional ratio-to-moving-average method, with allowance for
changing seasonal patterns.
The original data are regarded as a product of a trend-cycle component times a
seasonal component times an irregular component. The trend-cycle represents the
"real" movement of the series, including cyclical movements. The seasonal component is the annually repetitive pattern which makes certain months consistently
higher or lower than others. The irregular component is a residual, including
sampling errors and short-term fluctuations which do not follow any consistent
pattern. After a satisfactory decomposition is achieved, the seasonally adjusted
series is computed by dividing each original value by the corresponding seasonal
factor.
A centered 12-month moving average of the original data is used as the first
estimate of the trend-cycle. This is divided into the original values to provide seasonal-irregulars. A weighted moving average of these seasonal-irregulars for the
same month of successive years provides estimates of the seasonal factors. The new
method uses seven (instead of the previous five) terms in this moving average. The
quotient of each seasonal-irregular divided by the corresponding seasonal is an estimate of the irregular component, which at this stage includes some residual trendcycle because of the insufficient flexibility of the 12-month moving average in representing the trend-cycle. These irregulars are then smoothed to provide a trend
improvement factor which is multiplied by the 12-month moving average to yield a
better trend-cycle. The new method uses nine (instead of the previous seven) terms
in the weighted moving average for improving the trend-cycle component. A new
decomposition based on the revised trend-cycle is computed in the same way as before.
This would end the process except for the problem of extreme values. Most
series contain some values which do not quite fit the general pattern. Instead of the
earlier procedure in which a borderline case may receive either drastic treatment
or no treatment at all, the new method uses a graduated approach, with small
differences in the data causing only small differences in the way they are treated.
The key idea in the graduated treatment of extreme values is the assignment
of a "credence factor" to each data value. These credence factors, which range
from zero to one, are used as secondary weights in the various moving averages.
A value so extreme
as to have zero credence has no effect on the trend-cycle or the
seasonal factor; a value with partial credence has some effect but less than it had
originally. The extremeness goes into the irregular component.
iii
Many of the labor force series are seasonally adjusted by aggregation rather
than directly. That i s , parts of the labor force are adjusted directly and their
seasonally adjusted values are then combined to provide seasonally adjusted values
for the aggregates. Some of the unemployment rates are a quotient of one such
aggregate divided by another. The twelve basic series are four age-sex groups (male
and female, under and over 20 years of age) of unemployment, of nonagricultural employment, and of agricultural employment.
Historical Comparability
The data are based on the definitions of employment and unemployment adopted
in January 1957.
Beginning in I960, the data include Alaska and Hawaii; this should be taken into
account in making comparisons with previous years. The inclusion of Alaska and
Hawaii resulted in an increase of 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.
Beginning in 1953, population data from the 1950 Census were introduced into the
estimating procedure, affecting the comparability of the labor force figures with
previous years. Labor force, total employment, and agricultural employment levels
were raised by about 350, 000, primarily affecting the figures for total and males.
Other categories were relatively unaffected. Population data from the I960 Census
were introduced in April 1962. This change primarily affected the labor force and
employment totals, which were reduced by about 200, 000. The unemployment totals
were virtually unchanged.
Data
Published
As a result of new techniques and the conversion to a high-speed computer, the
BL.S is now able to process and publish up to 20 years of seasonally adjusted data
compared with the previous limitation of 14 years on the former program. The
current program also provides for the publication of annual averages for the first
time, which are based on original data. Although civilian labor force and total
employment are seasonally adjusted by the component method, direct adjustment
factors are available upon request. Historical seasonal adjustment factors for other
labor force series may also be obtained on request.

^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 pupulation 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.

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).
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.
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.
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 Agricultural Marketing Service (AMS) 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 differenc es 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 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 the Current Employment and Unemployment Statistics Prepared by the Bureau
of the Census, U.S. Bureau of the Census, Current Population Reports, Series P-23, No. 5. 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" and "total
labor force," are obtained from the Department ofDefense.
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 10 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 pwn 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,'1 "in school,*1 "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, .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.
3-E
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.
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 nonfarm, and rural farm). The proportion of sample
households not interviewed varies from 3 to 5 percent
depending on weather, vacations, etc.
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*
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
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 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.

and sex
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:

standard error of the monthly level in table C, it may be
seen that the standard error of the 500,000 increase is
about 135,000.
Table C. Standard error of estimates of
month-to-month change
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.

The reliability of an estimated percentage, computed 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

Establishment Data
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. Since many of the
published industry series represent combinations of SIC
industries, the BLS has prepared a Guide to Employment
Statistics of BLS, 1961 which specifies the SIC code or
codes covered by each industry title listed in Employment and Earnings. In addition, the Guide provides industry definitions and lists the beginning date of each
series. The Guide is available free upon request.
COLLECTION
Payroll reports provide current information on wage
and salary employment, hours, earnings, and labor turnover in nonfarm establishments, by industry and geographic
location.
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 geographic comparability of
estimates.
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.
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
Two types of data collection schedules are used:
Form BLS 790—Monthly Report on Employment, Payroll, and H o u r s ; 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.
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 include's 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.
CONCEPTS
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 an industry class supplement to the monthly 790 or 1219 report. In the case of
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.
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.
Industry Hours and Earnings
Hours and earnings data are derived from reports
of payrolls and man-hours for production and related
workers, construction workers, or nonsupervisory employees. These terms are defined below. When the pay
period reported is longer than 1 week, the figures are
reduced to a weekly basis.
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.
Construction workers relate to the following 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.
6-E
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.
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.
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.
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 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.
Man-hours cover man-hours worked or paid for,
during the pay period which includes thel2thof the month,
for production, construction, and nonsupervisory workers.
The man-hours include hours paid for holidays and vacations, and for sick leave when pay is received directly
from the firm.
Since overtime hours are premium hours by definition, gross weekly hours and overtime hours do not necessarily move in the same direction, from month-to-month;
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 industry-group
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.
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.
Railroad Hours and Earnings
Gross Average Hourly and Weekly Earnings
Average hourly earnings for manufacturing and nonmanufacturing industries 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 workers' earnings in individual establishments also affect the general earnings averages.
Averages for groups and divisions further reflect changes
in average h o u r l y earnings for individual industries.
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
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 or nonsupervisory-employee 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, 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.
Gross average weekly earnings are derived by multiplying average weekly hours by average hourly earnings.
Therefore, weekly earnings are affected not only by
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.
7-E
"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*
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.
Average Hourly Earnings Excluding Overtime
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.
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*
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.
Comparability With Employment Series
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*
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.
Labor Turnover
ESTIMATING METHODS
Labor turnover is the gross movement of wage and
salary workers into and out of employed s t a t u s with
The principal features of the estimating procedure
used to prepare estimates of employment for the industry statistics are (1) the use of the "link relative" technique, which is a form of ratio estimation, (2) periodic
adjustment of employment levels to new benchmarks, and
(3) the use of a modified cutoff type of sample.
Indexes of Aggregate Weekly Payrolls and Man-Hours
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.
Accessions are the total number of permanent and
temporary additions to the employment roll, including
both new and re hired employees*
The "Link Relative" Technique
From a sample of establishments, which report for
both the previous and current months, the ratio of current
month employment to that of the previous month is computed. 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 used for estimating industry employment, hours, earnings, and labor
turnover statistics are described in the table on page 12-E.
Further details are given in the technical notes on Meas*
urement of Employment, Hours, and Earnings in Nonagricultural Industries and on Measurement of Labor Turnover,
which are available upon request.
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.
Separations are terminations of employment during
the calendar month and are classified according to cause:
Quits, layoffs, and other separations, as defined as follows:
8-E
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 on page 12-E, may be a
whole industry or a size stratum, a region stratum, or a
size stratum of a region within an industry.
coverage is attained. In addition, to meet the needs of
preparing estimates of weekly hours and hourly earnings,
procedures were introduced to secure representation of
the smaller establishments in each industry. Because of
this procedure, and also because sampling takes place
primarily at the level of the metropolitan areas, which
vary greatly in size, the sample includes a considerable
number of small establishments, together with a very
substantial proportion of the larger establishments in
American industry.
Benchmark Adjustments
Employment estimates are periodically compared
with comprehensive counts of employment which provide
"benchmarks 11 for the various nonagricultural industries,
and appropriate adjustments are made as indicated. The
industry estimates are currently projected from March
1962 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 S o c i a l Security Administration, the Interstate
Commerce Commission, and a number of other agencies
in private industry or government.
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 specified*
tions 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 t e n d e n c y 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 "Estimating Methods."
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 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.
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.
Data for all months between the previous benchmark and the month in which the adjusted series is published 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 series is Employment and
Earnings Statistics for the United States, 1909*62, Bul-

Design
The sample design used in the BLS establishment
employment and labor turnover statistics programs is
that of a modified cutoff sample. In a cutoff design, all
establishments in a category are listed in sequence by
number of employees. A cutoff point is selected in terms
of the number of employees in an establishment, and only
establishments above the cutoff point are included in the
design. At present, sample selection is made by the cooperating State agencies at the area level with supplementation for establishments in sections of the State
lying outside of the defined areas. The national sample
therefore is then the sum of all the State samples.
In cutoff sampling, the general objective is to
obtain a sample comprising a large enough proportion
of universe employment so that satisfactory estimates
can be prepared. Since employer participation in the
BLS programs is voluntary, some establishments above
the cutoff may decline to report. To replace these in the
design, reports are solicited from the next largest establishments below the cutoff until the desired employment

Communication:
R e l i a b i l i t y o f 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 instead of
the standard error of the estimates, since it is not possible to compute a mathematically precise statement of
error unless the estimates are based on a probability
sample. An approximation of the accuracy of the BLS
employment estimates is shown by the following 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
cause of benchmark adjustments; however, it becomes
of less importance 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.
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.

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.
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, as defined in the Annual
Supplement Issue of Employment and Earnings. 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.
Users of State and area employment, hours, and
earnings statistics may be interested in Employment
and Earnings Statistics for States and Areas, 1939-62,
BLS Bulletin 1370. 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 date of availability of
each series through 1962.
10-E
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.
The seasonal adjustment method used for these
series is an adaptation of the standard ratio-ro-rnovins
average method, with a provision for "moving" adjustment factors to take account of changing seasonal patterns. A detailed description and illustration of the
basic method was published in the August I960 Monthly
Labor Review, and a revised version is described in the
1962 Report of the President's Committee to Appraise
Employment and Unemployment Statistics, Measuring
Employment and Unemployment, Appendix G, MThe
Bureau of Labor Statistics Seasonal Factor Method."
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.
Seasonally
adjusted aggregate weekly man-hours for mining, contract construction, and the major industries in manufacturing are obtained by multiplying average weekly
hours, seasonally adjusted, by production workers,
seasonally adjusted.
For total, manufacturing, and
durable and nondurable goods, aggregate weekly manhours, seasonally adjusted, are obtained by summing
the aggregate weekly man-hours, seasonally adjusted,
for the appropriate component industries.
The seasonally adjusted establishment data for
Federal Government ard 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 September 1963
Employment and Earnings, and revisions will be made
coincidental with the adjustment of series to new
benchmark levels.
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 order
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 1963 are published in the
February 1964 Employment and Earnings. Revisions will
be made annually as each additional year's data become
available.
