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

and D. Comparable data for prior periods are published in Employment and Earnings Statistics for
the United States, 1909-65, BLS Bulletin 1312-3,
which may be purchased from the Superintendent
of Documents for $4.25. For an individual industry, earlier data may be obtained upon request to
the Bureau.
When industry data are again adjusted to new
benchmarks, another edition of Employment and
Earnings Statistics for the United States will be
issued containing the revised data extending from
April 1964 forward to a current date, as well as the
prior historical statistics.

SUMMARY EMPLOYMENT AND UNEMPLOYMENT
DEVELOPMENTS, JUNE

1966

The Nation1 s job situation in June was dominated by the influx of nearly 2. 8
million teenagers into the labor force. Employment of 14-19 year-olds rose by 2. 0
million (550, 000 more than seasonal) to a record high of 8. 3 million. The greaterthan-seasonal employment pickup reflected both the late survey week when most
teenagers were out of school and the effectiveness of the campaign to provide summer
jobs for youth. At the same time, a record number of teenagers entered the summer job market. As a result, teenage unemployment (about 1O9 million) was roughly
the same as in June of 1965O
While the number of unemployed teenagers showed the usual seasonal rise, the
substantial employment advance reduced the jobless rate from 13. 4 percent in May to
12. 3 percent in June.
On the other hand, the employment situation for adult workers showed no improvement over the month, following very rapid gains in the January-April 1966 periodo
Unemployment among adult men rose by about 100, 000 in June, although no change is
expected at this time of year; their unemployment rate moved up from 2. 4 percent in
April and May to 20 6 percent in June,
The unemployment rate for all civilian workers remained at 4,0 percent in June.
While this rate was slightly above the 3. 7-3.8 percent range recorded from February
to April, it was down sharply from 4. 7 percent in June 1965. The rate of State insured
unemployment, at 2O 1 percent, was also unchanged from May to June, remaining at the
lowest level since the start of the series in January 1949.
Total employment rose by 2. 0 million to a record high of 75O 7 million in June.
The nonagricultural industries accounted for lo 1 million of the over-the-month gain,
while farm employment rose by 900, 000. Both increases exceeded seasonal expectations.
The number of employees on nonfarm payrolls increased by about l o 0 million
to almost 64. 0 million in June0 After seasonal adjustment, the gain was approximately 325, 000 and was concentrated in manufacturing, construction, and State and
local government, Since June 1965, payroll employment has advanced by 3O 1 million.
Manufacturing employment, which topped the 19 million mark in June, has risen by
1. 1 million in the past yearo
Unemployment
The jobless total rose by 900, 000 to 30 9 million in June. The over-the-mo nth
increase, which took plaee mainly among teenagers, was about in line with seasonal
expectation So
After seasonal adjustment, unemployment averaged 3.0 million in the second
quarter of 1966, up slightly from 2. 9 million in the first quarter o The slight increase
in the April-June 1966 period followed nine consecutive quarters of decline--with
particularly sharp decreases evident since the summer of 1965O The unemployment
rate for all workers averaged 30 9 percent in the second quarter, compared with 3. 8
percent in the January-March period.
The slight increases in the rate and level of unemployment in the second quarter
were attributable entirely to women and teenagers. The teenage jobless rate edged up
from 11. 6 to 12. 5 percent between the first and second quarters. However, except for




early 1966, the teenage rate was at its lowest quarterly level since January-March
1959. For adult women the rate averaged 3.8 percent in the April-June period,
compared to 3. 7 percent in the first quarter.
In contrast, unemployment rates for the prime worker groups continued to
decline in the second quartero For men 25 years of age and over, the rate decreased
from 2. 4 to 2. 2 percent, reaching its lowest level in almost 13 years. The rate for
married men edged down from 1. 9 percent in January-March 1966 to 1. 8 percent in
the second quarter.
All of the May-to-June rise in unemployment took place among persons jobless
less than 5 weeks (mainly teenagers). In June, nearly 6 out of 10 unemployed persons
(seasonally adjusted) had been seeking work for less than 5 weeks. Long-term unemployment (15 weeks or more) dropped sharply in June. After seasonal adjustment,
both the level and rate of long-term unemployment (475, 000 and 0. 6 percent, respectively) were at their lowest points since January 1954.
Insured Unemployment
Insured unemployment under State programs, which does not include new entrants
to the labor force such as students, declined seasonally between mid-May and midJune to 786,000. This was the lowest level for any month since October 1953. All
but three States showed over-the-month decreases, with the largest occurring in
California (19,000)o
Alaska1 s unadjusted rate dropped from 9o 2 to 5. 1 percent over the month but
was still the highest in the Nation. Three other States had rates above 2O 5 percent-California (3. 5), Nevada (3.3), and New York (2.7). On the other hand, the rates
were 1.0 percent or below in 16 States including such large States as Illinois, Indiana,
Texas, and Ohio.

Payroll Employment, Hours, and Earnings
The number of employees on nonfarm payrolls rose by 950, 000 (325, 000 more
than seasonal) between May and June, as all major industry divisions added employees.
At 64. 0 million, payroll employment was up 30 1 million from June 1965; this was the
largest year-to-year gain since 1950-51.
Manufacturing employment rose by 300, 000 to 190 1 million. The increase, which
was 110,000 more than seasonal, was concentrated in the durable goods industries,




particularly primary metals, machinery, and electrical equipment.
The over-the-year expansion in manufacturing employment amounted to 1.1
million, or more than one-third of the total nonfarm increase. The combined Juneto-June increase in 3 industries--machinery, electrical equipment, and transportation equipment--totaled 550,000.
The factory workweek and overtime, at 41O 5 and 4. 0 hours, were unchanged
from May to June. Hourly and weekly earnings, at $2.70 and $112.05, were also
unchanged from Mayo
Employment in contract construction rose by 250, 000 between May and June.
This was about 60, 000 more than seasonal, primarily because of the return of workers
following strikes.
Seasonally adjusted employment increases of about 50, 000 each took place in
trade and State and local government. Employment in each of the remaining major
industry divisions also increased slightly more than seasonally in June.
Total Employment and Labor Force
Despite the large June pickup, second quarter employment figures reflect the
recent slowdown in the rate of growth. Total employment (seasonally adjusted) rose
by lo 1 million from the third quarter of 1965 to the first quarter of 1966O However,
the gain from the first to the second quarter was only 100, 000.
Included in the employed total for June were 2. 2 million nonagricultural workers
on part time for economic reasons. The number of these involuntary part-time
workers showed a seasonally adjusted increase of 400, 000 over the month. All of the
greater-than-seasonal rise took place among teenagers. There was an especially
sharp increase in the number of 14-17 year-olds who usually work part time for economic reasons. In most cases, these young persons were unable to find full-time jobs.
The civilian labor force averaged 77. 4 million in the second quarter of 1966, an
increase of 1. 3 million from the comparable quarter a year ago. Teenagers, up
900, 000, accounted for the major part of the year-to-year rise.




THE

UNEMPLOYED:
WHY
THEY STARTED LOOKING FOR WORK

By Kathryn D. Hoyle*
The unemployment figures are designed to assist in measuring the utilization
of the Nation1 s most important re source--manpower 0 The figures therefore include,
all persons not working who are seeking work at a given time, regardless of their
financial needs or their reasons for trying £0 find jobs. The unemployed comprise
workers who left one job to look for another, and workers who entered the job market
either for the first time or after a period outside the labor force, as well as those
who were laid off or lost their jobs.
The reasons people begin to look for work were identified for the first time
in supplements to the regular Current Population Surveys taken in June and December
1964,
and the results were published in MThe Unemployed: Why They Started Looking
For Work11, the Monthly Labor Review, October 1965. Data are now available from
three additional surveys.
The new surveys were taken in June and November 1965 and January 1966.
No definite conclusions on trends in the reasons people begin to look for work can be
drawn, since the seasonal unemployment patterns of June, November, December,
and January are markedly different. The important finding, however, is that the
additional statistics support the conclusions of the original study0
Of particular interest was the discovery that less than half of the unemployed
had lost their previous job0 An average of the 5 survey months produces the following
approximate composite of the unemployed:
40 percent had lost their previous jobs;
15 percent had quit their last jobs;
25 percent were reentering the labor force after a
period of absence; and
20 percent were new entrants who had never held a
full-time job0
The percentage for each group varied upward or downward, depending on the
seasono For example, over one-fourth of the unemployed were new entrants in June
when school was out of session, but less than one-sixth were in this category during
the winter months0
Job Losers. The individual worker often has little control over job loss,
which may be the result of a business failure, a decreased work load, or mechanization. However, if job loss were the only cause of unemployment, the unemployment
rate would be substantially lower. The total unemployment rate ranged from approximately 4 to 6 percent in the 5 survey months, while the job-loser rate varied from
about 1-1/2 to 2-1/4 percent (table 2)o In June 1965, job losers accounted for only
one-third of all unemployed persons; the proportion rose to one-half of the unemployed
in December 1964 and January 1966 (table l) 0
The proportion of persons unemployed because of job loss increases steadily
with age (table 3)0 With increased age and work experience, frequent or casual job
shifting decreases 0 The more experienced worker has usually finished his period

Statistics.

of job testing and has found a field suited to his skills and interests. Men age 25 and
over are normally the primary source of support for their families, and the importance
of a woman1 s earnings to her family1 s income also increases as she moves out of the
teenage and young adult years. Women also become freer of family responsibilities
as their children grow oldero All these factors strengthen the worker 1 s labor force
attachment and discourage job quitting and movement into and out of the labor force.
Only a small proportion of the unemployed 14 to 17 year-olds gave job loss as
the reason o Loss of a job becomes more prevalent among older teenagers, since
more 18 to 19 year-olds are out of school and participating full time in the labor force,
and this progression continues,, Job losers accounted for nearly three-fourths of the
unemployed men age 45-64 years and for more than half of the unemployed women in
this age group.

The discussion immediately preceding relates to job losers as a proportion of
the unemployed in a given age group. The job-loser rate, however, is based on the
percentage of the labor force at any age that is unemployed due to the loss of a job.
The age-sex differentials in job-loser rates are considerably smaller than the differentials in the total unemployment rates (table 4); for example, there is a wide gap
between teenage and adult overall unemployment rates, but most of the difference is
accounted for by the appreciably higher entrant rate of teenagers. It appears that
once a teenage boy or girl has a job, he is not much more likely than his adult counterpart to become unemployed because he loses it.
The typically higher unemployment rates for adult women compared with adult
men are also a function of their greater labor force mobility. In fact, in the winter
months the job-loser rate for adult women is lower than that for adult men0
A reduction in the job-loser rate between June 1964 and June 1965 was responsible for most of the drop in the total unemployment rate. The total jobless rate fell
from 601 to 50 5 percent in this period (table 2). Whereas the entrant rate and the
job-leaver rate showed little change, the job-loser rate dropped from 2. 2 to 1. 8
percent. It seems clear, therefore, that job losers account for most of the nonseasonal
movement in the total unemployment rate, although they represent less than half of the
unemployed,,
Job Leavers o Persons who left their jobs, for a variety of reasons, accounted
for 12 to 18 percent of the unemployed (table 1). Some of the reasons for quitting would
be obvious--differences with the boss, unpleasant working conditions, low wages, no
opportunity for advancement, and the likeo Others quit in anticipation of job loss.
This reason might account for the higher proportion of job quitters among the unemployed in November and January, as outdoor work and the Christmas season end.
The job-leaver rate is rather high among older teenagers and young adults who
change jobs frequently before deciding to settle in one (table 4). Other workers have
to leave their job because the family head moves to another community. Some persons
can look for another job while remaining on their present one; others have to quit to
devote themselves full time to finding a new jobo Unless these job leavers find work
immediately, they are counted in the unemployment statistics,, They compete with job
losers for the available jobs and increase the pressure on job placement facilities,,
In all the special survey months, only 0o 6-0o 7 percent of the labor force had
quit their previous job (table 2). Although most evidence (such as the labor turnover
series and various employer reports) indicates that job changing has increased since
mid-1964, the job-quitter rate did not reflect this. Undoubtedly, the easy availability
of jobs enabled many job quitters to move directly from one job to another with little
or no unemployment.
Labor Force Entrants. Most persons entering the labor force for the first
time are teenagers who are still in school. Although many of these youngsters are not
forced to work full time by economic necessity, some of them do need temporary or
part-time jobs to help pay school or family expenses,, Also, these young workers need
to accumulate work experience. Their very lack of experience, however, and their age
makes it especially difficult for them to find a job.
Over one-fourth of the unemployed were new entrants in June, when schools were
not in session (table 1). However, even in the winter months, nearly one-sixth had no
previous full-time work experience. As would be expected, the entrant rate causes
most of the seasonal variation in the total unemployment rate that occurs between June
and the winter monthso About 1. 7 percent of the labor force was inexperienced and
unemployed in June 1964 and 1965; the new entrant rate dipped to around 0. 7 percent in
the winter months.




Women and teenagers account for a majority of the reentrants into the labor
force, A great many of them, regardless of age or sex, come back into the work
force because of economic necessity.
«. • *• M a n y ° f t h e t e e n a 8 e r s h a v e worked before at summer jobs and are looking for
their first permanent full-time jobs. Among adults of both sexes, seasonal work is the
primary reason for reentry. Some persons drop out of the labor force temporarily
because of sickness and later return to look for work. Others leave the labor force to
supplement educational and vocational skills and return when the new skills have been
21C C [ l l l 3T © Cl«

Divorce and separation force many women to reenter the labor market to support themselves and their children. Others leave the labor force when their husbands
relocate geographically but return to look for work when the new household is set up
Still others, who want to work and whose families need the money, can reenter the
labor force only after their children have reached school age.
While seasonal work is the primary reason for reentry among adult men, other
reasons are discharge from the Armed Forces and, to a much lesser extent, release
from various types of institutions (e.g., hospitals, prisons).
During the period June 1964-January 1966, one-fifth to one-fourth of the
unemployed were persons with previous work experience who had been out of the labor
force for various reasons. The rate for reentrants reached a seasonal high of 1 5
percent in June. In the other months, unemployed reentrants accounted for approximately 1 percent of the labor force (table 2).
Seasonal Adjustment. The lack of an historical series on the reasons persons
start to look tor work precludes seasonal adjustment of the various rates. For one
group, however, a tentative adjustment may be made.
Job loss accounts for most of the variation in the total unemployment rate for
men age 25 and over. In all 5 special survey months, both the entrant and leaver
rates for men remained in the narrow range of 0. 3 to 0. 6 percent. The job loss rate
however, fluctuated from 1. 5 to 2. 3 percent.
,. . J h e * o t a l unemployment rate for men 25 years of age and over, seasonally
adjusted, fell from 3. 4 percent in June 1964 to 2. 5 percent in January 1966. Since most
of the variation was due to job loss, the seasonal factors for total unemployment in this
t & ^ ^ 8f1°UP c a n t b e , aPPlied to job losers for an approximate adjustment. This yields
a seasonally adjusted decline in the job-loser rate from 2. 3 percent in June 1964 to 1. 7
was a t ? J j T a r y 1 9 6 6 * Approximately 70 percent of the total reduction, therefore,
^>h « t J ? a ? e C "v 8 , e 1 U t h e J ° ^ l o s e r r a t e - T h e "Bt was attributable to the improved
job situation for job leavers and entrants.

*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 609,000; labor force, total employment, and agricultural employment by about 350,000, primarily affecting the
figures for total and males. Other categories were relatively unaffected.
^Data include Alaska and Hawaii beginning I960 and are therefore not strictly comparable with previous years. This inclusion has resulted in an increase of about half a
million in the noninstitutional population 14 years of age and over, and about 300,000 in the labor force, four-fifths of this in nonagricultural employment. The levels of other
labor force categories were not appreciably changed.
^Figures for periods prior to April 1962 are not strictly comparable with current data because of the introduction of I960 Census data into the estimation procedure. The
change primarily affected the labor force and employment totals, which were reduced by about 200,000. The unemployment totals were virtually unchanged.
NOTE: Data for 1929-39 based on sources other than direct enumeration.

Technical Note

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.
Order blank follows Technical Note.

INTRODUCTION

Relation between the household and payroll series

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

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

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

Data from these two sources differ from each other
because of differences in definition and coverage, sources
of information, methods of collection, and estimating
procedures. Sampling variability and response errors
are additional reasons for discrepancies. The major
factors which have a differential effect on levels and
trends of the two series are as follows:
Employment

Coverage. The household survey definition of employment comprises wage and salary workers (including
domestics and other private household workers), selfemployed persons, and unpaid workers who worked 15
hours or more during the survey week in family-operated
enterprises. Employment in both farm and nonfarm industries is included. The payroll survey covers only wage
and salary employees on the payrolls of nonfarm establishments.

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

Multiple jobholding. The household approach provides information on the work status of the population
without duplication since each person is classified as
employed, unemployed, or not in the labor 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.

Data based on administrative records of unemployment
insurance systems furnish a complete count of insured
unemployment among the two-thirds of the Nation's
labor force covered by unemployment insurance programs. Weekly reports, by State, are issued on the
number of initial claims, the volume and rate of insured
unemployment under State unemployment insurance programs, and the volume under programs of unemployment
compensation for Federal employees, exservicemen,
and for railroad workers. These statistics are published by the Bureau of Employment Security, U.S.

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

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

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

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

Comparability of the 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.

Comparability of the household interview data
with other series

Unemployment insurance data. The unemployed total
from the household survey includes all persons who did
not work at all during the survey week and were looking
for work or were waiting to be called back to a job from
which they had been laid off, regardless of whether or
not they were eligible for unemployment insurance. Figures on unemployment insurance claims, prepared by the
Bureau of Employment Security of the Department of
Labor, exclude persons who have exhausted their benefit
rights, new workers who have not earned rights to unemployment insurance, and persons losing jobs not
covered by unemployment insurance systems (agriculture, State and local government, domestic service,
self-employed, unpaid family work, nonprofit organizations, and firms below a minimum size).

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.

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.

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.

Agricultural employment estimates of the Department
of Agriculture. The principal differences in coverage

Current Population Survey" (BLS Report 279). This report is available from BLS on request.

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




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,
107

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.

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.

Inmates of institutions and persons under 14 years
of age are not covered in the regular monthly enumerations and are excluded from the population and labor
force statistics shown in this report. Data on members
of the Armed Forces, who are included as part of the
categories "total noninstitutional population" and "total
labor force," are obtained from the Department of Defense.

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

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

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

CONCEPTS

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

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

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

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

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




The class-of-worker breakdown specifies "wage and
salary workers," subdivided into private and government
workers, "self-employed workers," and "unpaid family
workers." Wage and salary workers receive wages,
salary, commission, tips, or pay in kind from a private
employer or from a governmental unit. Self-employed
persons are those who work for profit or fees in their
108

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

ESTIMATING METHODS

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

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

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

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

2. Ratio estimates. The distribution of the population selected for the sample may differ somewhat, by
chance, from that of the Nation as a whole, in such
characteristics as age, color, sex, and residence. Since
these population characteristics are closely correlated
with labor force participation and other principal measurements made from the sample, the latter estimates
can be substantially improved when weighted appropriately by the known distribution of these population
characteristics. This is accomplished through two stages
of ratio estimates as follows*
a. First-stage ratio estimate. This is the procedure in which the sample proportions are weighted by
the known 1960 Census data on the color-residence
distribution of the population. This step takes into account the differences existing at the time of the i960
Census between the color-residence distribution for the
Nation and for the sample areas*

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

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

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




3e 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.
109

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

Reliability of the Estimates

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

The standard error of the change in an item from
one month to the next month is more closely related to
the standard error of the monthly level for that item than
to the size of the specific month-to-month change itself.
Thus, in order to use the approximations to the standard
errors of month-to-month changes as presented in table
C, it is first necessary to obtain the standard error of
the monthly level of the item in table B, and then find the
standard error of the month-to-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 standard error is a measure of sampling variability, that is, the variations that might occur by chance
because only a sample of the population is surveyed.
The chances are about 2 out of 3 that an estimate from
the sample would differ from a complete census by less
than the standard error. The chances are about 19 out of
20 that the difference would be less than twice the
standard error.
Table A shows the average standard error for the
major employment status categories, by sex, computed
from data for past months. Estimates of change derived
from the survey are also subject to sampling variability.
The standard error of change for consecutive months is
also shown in table A. The standard errors of level shown
in table A are acceptable approximations of the standard
errors of year to year change.

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

Establishment Data
COLLECTION

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

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

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

Federal-State Cooperation

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

CONCEPTS
Industrial Classification

Shuttle Schedules

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

Two types of data collection schedules are used*

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

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

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.
Payroll covers the payroll for full- and part-time
production, construction, or nonsupervisory workers who
received pay for any part of the pay period which includes the 12th of the month. The payroll is reported
before deductions of any kind, e.g., for old-age and
unemployment insurance, group insurance, withholding
tax, bonds, or union dues; also included is pay for overtime, holidays, vacations, and sick leave paid directly
by the firm. Bonuses (unless earned and paid regularly
each pay period), other pay not earned in pay period
reported (e.g., retroactive pay), and the value of free
rent, fuel, meals, or other payment in kind are excluded.

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

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

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

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

Industry Hours and Earnings

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

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 workers* earnings in individual establishments also affect the general earnings
averages. Averages for groups and divisions further reflect changes in average hourly earnings for individual
industries.

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

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

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




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

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

Spendable Average Weekly Earnings

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

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

"Rear1 earnings are computed by dividing the current
Consumer Price Index into the earnings averages for
the current month. The resulting level of earnings expressed in 1957-59 dollars is thus adjusted for changes
in purchasing power since the base period.

Average Weekly Hours

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

Average Hourly Earnings Excluding Overtime

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

Average Overtime Hours

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

Indexes of Aggregate Weekly Payrolls and Man-Hours

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

Railroad Hours and Earnings

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

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

temporary additions to the employment uoll, including

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

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

The "Link Relative" Technique

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

Other accessions, which are not published separately
but are included in total accessions, are all additions to
the employment roll which are not classified as new
hires, including transfers from another establishment
of the company.
Separations are terminations of employment during
the calendar month and are classified according to cause:
Quits, layoffs, and other separations, are defined as
follows:

Size and Regional Stratification

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

Quits are terminations of employment initiated by
employees, failure to report after being hired, and unauthorized absences, if on the last day of the month the
person has been absent more than 7 consecutive calendar
days.
Layoffs are suspensions without pay lasting or expected to last more than 7 consecutive calendar days,
initiated by the employer without prejudice to the worker.

Benchmark Adjustments

0 ther seporations, 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.

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.

Comparability With Employment Series

The primary source of benchmark information is the
employment data, by industry, compiled quarterly by
State agencies from reports of establishments covered
under State unemployment insurance laws. These tabulations, covering three-fourths of the total nonfarm employment in the United States, are prepared under the
direction of the Bureau of Employment Security. Benchmark data for the residual are obtained from the records
of the Social Security Administration, the Interstate)
Commerce Commission, and a number of other agencies
in private industry or government.

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

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

ESTIMATING METHODS

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




114

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

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

In the context of the BLS employment and labor
turnover statistics program, with their emphasis on producing timely data at minimum cost, a sample must be
obtained which will provide coverage of a sufficiently
large segment of the universe to provide reasonably
reliable estimates that can be published promptly and
regularly. The present sample meets these specifications for most industries. With its use, the BLS is able
to produce preliminary estimates each month for many
industries and for many geographic levels within a few
weeks after reports are mailed by respondents, and at a
somewhat later 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 SAMPLE
Coverage

Design

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.

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.

and payrolls sample, March 1964 1
Employees
Industry division

Under this type of design, large establishments fall
into the sample with certainty. The size of the samples
for the various industries is determined empirically
on the basis of experience and of cost considerations.
In a manufacturing industry in which a high proportion of
total employment is concentrated in a relatively few
establishments, a large percentage of total employment
is included in the sample. Consequently, the sample
design for such industries provides for a complete
census of the larger establishments with only a few
chosen from among the smaller establishments or none
at all if the concentration o* employment is great
enough. On the other hand, in an industry in which a
large proportion of total employment is in small establishments, the sample design calls for inclusion of all
large establishments, and also 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.

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

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

Reliability of the Employment Estimate

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

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

Users oi 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.

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

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

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

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

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

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




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