ERRATUM
The employment by occupation data which appeared in the March 1967 issue of this publication (pp. 14-15 and pp. 39-41) were not correctly adjusted to exclude 14 and 15 yearolds. Similarly, the unemployment rates by occupation (appearing on pp. 28-31 of the same
issue) contain a few e r r o r s .
The seasonally adjusted data on employment "by occupation
and unemployment rates by occupation which appear in the February-June issues (Tables
A-29 and A-33) are also subject to revision.
The entire package of employment and
unemployment data by occupation is now being examined; correct historical series will
be published in the July 1967 issue.
NOTE
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. Data from April 1965 forward are subject to revision at the time of the
next benchmark adjustment.
Beginning with September 1966 and subsequent issues of Employment and
Earnings and Monthly Report on the Labor Force, national data in Sections B, C, and D are based on
March 1965 benchmarks. Comparable data for prior periods are published in Employment and Earnings
Statistics for the United States, 1909-66, BLS Bulletin 1312-4.
For further information regarding benchmark adjustments and other aspects of the program, the user
is referred to the technical note at the back of this volume.

SUMMARY EMPLOYMENT A N D UNEMPLOYMENT
DEVELOPMENTS, MAY
Employment advanced less than usual
between April and May, but the civilian
labor force also failed to show the normal
seasonal increase. As a result, the level of
unemployment (seasonally adjusted) was
virtually unchanged. The jobless rate, at 3.8
percent, remained within the range which
has prevailed since the beginning of 1966.
The slowness of the employment pickup
in May resulted from several causes. Since
inventories are still out of line with retail
sales, manufacturing employment was off
80,000 on a seasonally adjusted basis and
showed a small decline in actual terms.
Employment in retail trade has remained
virtually unchanged in the last 4 months, in
contrast with the rise throughout 1966. *
The persistence of wet and wintery weather
over much of the country held down the usual
increase in the number of agricultural and
construction jobs.
Average weekly hours advanced in most
industries during May, but here again the
increase was below seasonal expectations.
In recent months, the movement of workers into and out of the labor force has been
closely correlated with the slower pace of
labor demand. While the civilian labor force
has increased about 800,000 since January,
the normal seasonal expectation would have
been 900,000 higher. The seasonally adjusted decline since January has been concen-
A restudy of seasonal factors for retail
trade in the Spring has eliminated much of
the reported increase for April noted in last
month's release.
1967
trated among adult women, down 500,000,
while the labor force for adult men and teenagers each declined by about 200,000. These
figures probably represent the failure of
seasonal workers to enter the labor force
thus far in 1967, more than an actual withdrawal of year-round workers. Another
point to be noted is that in the case of adult
women, the labor force increase in the second half of 1966 was about 600,000 over the
long-term trend of growth. Some pause in
the expansion of the female labor force was
highly likely after this experience.
Industry Developments
The number of workers on manufacturing payrolls declined by 80,000 (seasonally
adjusted) in May, with most of the reduction
occurring in the nondurable goods industries. Except for a drop of 50,000 in the
rubber industry due to a strike, the employment declines were small and relatively
widespread among the manufacturing industries. Transportation equipment, led by
autos, was the only industry to register a
significant gain (15,000). Manufacturing employment in May was down 325,000 from the
January peak but was still up 150,000 over
the year.
Contract construction employment rose
100,000 in May, but this was only about half
of the seasonally expected increase. Bad
weather, plus increased strike activity,
contributed to the seasonally adjusted decline of 100,000 between April and May.
The service-producing sector of the
economy (except for trade) continued to
grow in May, but the increases only partially offset the manufacturing and construction declines. Government employment- - p r i m a r i l y at the State and local
level--rose by 60,000 after seasonal adjustment. The return of the trucking strikers
contributed to the 50,000 employment increase in transportation.
Jobs in the miscellaneous service industries continued to expand, rising by 25,000
over the month. Employment in trade was
steady from April to May; retail trade employment has been relatively unchanged
since February.
In May, the workweek for nonsupervisory employees on private nonagricultural
payrolls averaged 37.9 hours, down 0.7 hour
from the May 1966 level. Despite the drop
in hours, weekly earnings--at $100.06-were up $2.02 over the year.
The manufacturing workweek averaged
40.3 hours in May, up slightly from April
but less than seasonally expected. Over the
year, the factory workweek has fallen by 1.2
hours. Since May 1966, the workweek has
fallen more than an hour and a half in furniture, primary metals, electrical equipment,
transportation equipment, and textiles.
At $112.84 in May, weekly earnings for
manufacturing production workers were up
only 80 cents from a year earlier, despite
an increase of 10 cents in average hourly
earnings. The relatively small over-theyear increase in weekly earnings resulted
from the drop in hours.
Unemployment
The 200,000 decline in unemployment
between April and May was about in line
with seasonal expectations, and the total
unemployment rate was 3.8 p e r c e n t - virtually unchanged from April and from a
year ago. The recent decrease in demand
for labor in several sectors of the economy
has resulted in a slowdown in labor force
growth rather than an increase in over-all
unemployment. The unemployment rate for
full-time workers has, however, moved up
from 3.1 percent (seasonally adjusted) in the
first quarter of 1967 to 3.5 percent in May.
Similarly, the rates in construction and
manufacturing have risen during this period.
The seasonally adjusted employment decline in May was also reflected in higher
unemployment rates for several disadvantaged groups. The rates for teenagers (13.1
percent), nonwhites (7.8 percent), and un r
skilled laborers (8.4 percent) all increased
between April and May. On the other hand,
jobless rates for adult men (2.4 percent),
adult women (3.9 percent), and all white
workers (3.3 p e r c e n t ) continued at low
levels.
Insured Unemployment
State insured unemployment moved down
by 217,000 between mid-April and mid-May
to a volume of 1,169,000. The over-themonth reduction was just about the seasonal
expectation, and the seasonally adjusted
volume remained unchanged at 1.3 million.
The adjusted rate was also unchanged at 2.7
percent. In mid-April of 1966, the rate of
insured joblessness was 2.2 percent.
Compared with a year ago, all but two
States showed increased insured joblessness. California had the l a r g e s t r i s e - 41,500, Michigan was up by 29,700, Illinois
by 23,600, Ohio by 23,000, and Pennsylvania
by 22,400.
Total Employment and Labor Force
The employment of persons 16 years of
age and over averaged 72.9 million in the
first 5 months of 1967, an increase of 1.5
million over the same period in 1966. Employment of adult men was up 450,000, while
adult •women and teenagers showed gains of
850,000 and 200,000, respectively. Nonagricultural employment in the first 5 months of
1967 was up by 1.7 million over the comparable 1966 period, while agriculture continued its long-term, decline.
The civilian labor force has averaged
75.7 million thus far in 1967, 1,4 million
higher than in 1966. Despite the decline in the
civilian labor force since January, the yearto-year average increase in the total labor
force, 1.9 million, remained well above the
projected long-term growth rate.

The Outlook for Youth Employment: Summer 1967
Between May and July of this year, an
estimated 3.4 million young people will enter the labor force--approximately the same
summertime i n c r e a s e as recorded last
year. There will be about 1.5 million graduates starting their full-time work careers,
as well as the normal influx of summer job seekers. Competition for jobs between these
two groups will be sharp with so many jobseekers entering the labor force in June and
July. Moreover, the slower pace of employment growth in recent months suggests that
young people entering the work force this
summer may have more difficulty finding
jobs than last year.
Population and Labor Force Growth
By July of this year, approximately 12.7
million young persons 16 to 21 years of age
are expected to be in the civilian labor force
(table 1). This represents an increase of
3.4 million workers from the May 1967 labor
force level, about the same as the summertime increase recorded last year. About
600,000 of this year's May-to-July rise will
be in the 20 and 21 year-old age group and
2.8 million will be 16 to 19 years of age.
These 2.8 million persons will expand the
teenage work force by nearly 50 percent.
If the expected summertime increase
takes place, the July 1967 labor force of
12.7 million 16 to 21 year-olds will be about
400,000 larger than in July 1966. The increase over last July is expected to be entirely among those 20 and 21 years of age,
reflecting the increase this year in their
population. The large number of youngsters
The actual increase between May and
July 1966 was about 300,000 smaller than
projected for 1967. However, if jobseekers
who were not currently available for work
had been included in May 1967 (as they were
in 1966), the increases would be about the
same.
born shortly after World War II have passed
through their teens and are now in their
early twenties.
Of the 3.4 million additional labor force
participants 16 to 21 years of age, approximately 2.5 million will be students who will
enter the labor force for summer jobs; the
other 900,000 will be high school and college
graduates permanently entering the labor
force. Altogether about 1.5 million graduates will be starting on their work careers,
but approximately 550,000 of this total were
already in the labor force while still in
school. Although these 550,000 youths donot
represent a net addition to the labor force,
many may be seeking to shift from a parttime job with little or no career potential to
full-time work, often of a different nature.
Employment Outlook
The two groups (permanent entrants and
summer workers) will be seeking somewhat
different kinds of jobs. The permanent entrants are likely to want jobs that offer advancement, would be willing to spend time
on training, and probably have more skills
to offer. On the other hand, summer workers probably will be less concerned about
future prospects and wouldaccept jobs simply for the money and the work experience.
In any case, the competition will be sharp
with so large a number converging on the
job market within a short period of time.
The employment changes that took place
in the summer of 1966 indicate where these
young workers find jobs. Between May and
July of last year, the employment of 16 to
21 year-olds rose by 2.9 million. In the private nonagricultural sector, the employment
increase totaled 2.2 million from May to
July (table 2). Of these, 650,000 were added
in manufacturing and a p p r o x i m a t e l y
600,000 found jobs in service and finance.
The other two nonagricultural industries
where a substantial number of 16 to 21 yearolds were added last summer were trade and
construction, with employment increases
of 550,000 and 250,000, respectively. In
agriculture, 325,000 more youngsters were
employed in July than in May. Finally, government a c e ount e d for 375,000 more employed young workers.
These industries are likely to be the
major ones to employ this summer's influx
of youth into the labor force. If they are un-
able to employ the young persons entering
the labor force because of slack business
conditions, the normally high summer unemployment rate for 16 to 21 year-olds will
be even higher this year. Last July, 10.7
percent of the 16 to 21 year-olds in the civilian labor force were unable to find jobs.
If the same rate prevails this year, approximately 1.4 million youngsters will be unemployed in July 1967.

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

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.
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 16 years of age and
over. 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 survey also
provides data on the characteristics and past work experience of those not in the labor force. The information
is collected by trained interviewers from a sample of
about 52,500 households, representing 449 areas in 863
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
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.
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 estab*lishment 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, ex-servicemen,
and railroad workers. These statistics are published by
the Bureau of Employment Security, U.S. Department of
Labor, in "Unemployment Insurance Claims."
Unpaid absences from jobs. The household survey includes among the employed all persons who had jobs but
were not at work during the survey week—that is, were
not working 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 for the time off. In
99
the figures based on payroll reports, persons on leave
paid for by the company are i n c l u d e d , but not
those on leave w i t h o u t pay for the entire payroll
period.
Hours of Work
The household survey measures hours actually worked
whereas the payroll survey measures hours paid for by
employers. In the household survey data, all persons
with a job but not at work are excluded from the hours
distributions and the computations of average hours.
In the payroll survey, employees on paid vacation, paid
holiday, or paid sick leave are included and assigned the
number of hours for which they were paid during the
reporting period.
Comparability of the household interview data
with other series
Unemployment insurance data. The unemployed total
from the household survey includes all persons who did
not have a job 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 employment, unpaid family work, nonprofit organizations, and firms below a minimum size).
In addition, the qualifications for drawing unemployment compensation differ from the definition of unemployment used in the household survey. For example,
persons with a job but not at work and persons working
only a few hours during the week are sometimes eligible
for unemployment compensation but are classified as
employed rather than unemployed in the household
survey.
Agricultural employment estimates of the Department
of Agriculture. The principal differences in coverage
are the inclusion of persons under 16 in the Statistical
Research Service (SRS) series and the treatment of dual
jobholders who are counted more than once if they worked
on more than one farm during the reporting period.
There are also wide differences in sampling techniques
and collecting and estimating methods, which cannot be
readily measured in terms of impact on differences in
level and trend of the two series.
Comparability of the payroll employment data
with other series
Statistics on manufactures and business. Bureau of the
Census. BLS establishment statistics on employment
differ from employment counts derived by the Bureau
of the Census from its censuses or annual sample surveys of manufacturing establishments and the censuses
of business establishments. The major reasons for some
noncomparability are different treatment of business
units considered parts of an establishment, such as
central administrative offices and auxiliary units, the
industrial classification of establishments, and different
reporting patterns by multiunit companies. There are
also differences in the scope of the industries covered,
e.g., the Census of Business excludes contract construction, professional services, public utilities, and financial
establishments, whereas these are included in BLS
statistics.
County Business Patterns. Data ia County Business
Patterns, published jointly by the U.S. Departments of
Commerce and Health, Education, and Welfare, differ
from BLS establishment statistics in the treatment of
central administrative offices and auxiliary units. Differences may also arise because of industrial classification and reporting practices. In addition, CBP excludes
interstate railroads and government, and coverage is
incomplete for some of the nonprofit activities.
Employment covered by State unemployment insurance
programs. Not all nonfarm wage and salary workers are
covered by the unemployment insurance programs. All
workers in certain \activities, such as interstate railroads, are excluded. In addition, small firms in covered
industries are also excluded in 32 States. In general,
these are establishments with less than four employees.
Labor Force Data
COLLECTION AND COVERAGE
port 313). This report is a v a i l a b l e from BLS on request.
Statistics on the employment status of the population,
the personal, occupational, and other characteristics of
the employed, the unemployed, and persons not in the
labor force, and related 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 Manpower
Statistics from the Current Population Survey" (BLS Re-
1 00
These monthly surveys of the population are conducted with a scientifically selected sample designed to
represent the civilian noninstitutional population 16 years
and over. Respondents are interviewed to obtain information about the employment status of each member of
the household 16 years of age and over. The inquiry
relates to activity or status during the calendar week,
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. 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.
Sunday through Saturday, which includes the 12th of the
month. This is known as the survey week. Actual field
interviewing is conducted in the following week.
Inmates of institutions and persons under 16 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.
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.
Each month, 52,500 occupied units are designated for
interview. About 2,250 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 4.5 percent. In addition to the 52,500 occupied units, there are 8,500 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 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.
Not in labor force includes all civilians 16 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.
CONCEPTS
Employed persons comprise (a) all those who during
the survey week did any work at all as paid employees, in
the^r own business, profession, or 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 but who had jobs or businesses
from which they were temporarily absent because of
illness,
bad weather, vacation, labor- management
dispute, or personal reasons, whether or not they were
paid by their employers for the time off, and whether or
not they were seeking other jobs.
For persons not in the labor force, data on previous
work experience, intentions to seek work again, desire for
a job at the time of interview, and reasons for not looking
for work are compiled on a quarterly basis. The detailed
questions for persons not in the labor force are asked
only in those households that are new entrants to the
sample and in .those that are reentering the sample after
8 months' absence.
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
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 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 during the survey week, who made specific efforts to find a job within the past 4 weeks, and who were
available for work during the survey week (except for
temporary illness). Also included as unemployed are
those who did not work at all, were available for work,
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.
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.
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
101
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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. Fjrst-stage ratio estimate. This is a procedure in which the sample proportions are weighted by
the known 1960 Census data on the color-residence
distribution of the population. This step takes into account the differences existing at the time of the 1960
Census between the color-residence distribution for the
Nation and for the sample areas.
Full- and 'part-time labor force. The full-time labor
force consists of persons working on full-time schedules,
persons involuntarily working part time (because fulltime work is not available), and unemployed persons
seeking full-time jobs. The part-time labor force consists
of persons working part time voluntarily and unemployed
persons seeking part-time work. Persons with a job but
not at work during the survey week are classified according to whether they usually work full or part
time.
b. Second-stage ratio estimate. In this step, the
sample proportions are weighted by independent current
estimates of the population by age, sex, and color.
These estimates are prepared by carrying forward the
most recent census data (1960) to take account of subsequent aging of the population, mortality, and migration between the U n i t e d S t a t e s and other countries.
Labor force time lost is a measure of man-hours
lost to the economy through unemployment and involuntary part-time employment and is expressed
as a percent of potentially available man-hours.
It is computed by assuming: (1) that unemployed
persons looking for full-time work lost an average of 37.5 hours, (2) that those looking for parttime work lost the average number of hours actually
worked by voluntary part-time workers during the
survey week, and (3) that persons on part time for
economic reasons lost the difference between 37.5
hours and the a c t u a l n u m b e r of hours they
worked.
3. Composite estimate procedure. In deriving statistics for a given month, a composite estimating procedure is used which takes account of net changes from
the previous month for continuing parts of the sample
(75 percent) as well as the sample results for the current month. This procedure reduces the sampling variability of month-to-month changes especially and of the
levels for most items also.
1 02
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 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.
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.
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
133,000. Consequently, the chances are about 68 out of
100 that the sample estimate differs by less than 133,000
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 133,000 as the standard

Establishment Data
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 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.
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
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.
CONCEPTS
Industrial Classification
Shuttle Schedules
Two types of data collection schedules are used:
Form BLS 790—-Monthly Report on Employment, Payroll, and Hours; and Form DL 1219—Monthly Report
1 04
Establishments are classified into industries on the
basis of their principal product or activity determined
from information on annual sales volume. This information is collected each year on a supplement to the
monthly 790 or 1219 report. For an establishment making
more than one product or engaging in more than one
activity, the entire employment of the establishment is
included under the industry indicated by the most important product or activity.
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 except that for 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.
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.
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 in manufacturing and mining, construction workers in
contract construction, and nonsupervisory employees in
the remaining nonfarm components. For Federal Government, hours and earnings relate to all employees who
worked or received pay during the pay period which includes the 12th of the month. Terms are defined below.
When the pay period reported is longer than 1 week, figures are reduced to a weekly basis.
Production and related workers include working
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 plants own use (e.g., power
plant), and recordkeeping and other services closely
associated with the above production operations.
1 05
Construction workers include 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.
Nonsupervisory employees include employees (not
above the working supervisory level) such as office and
clerical workers, repairmen, salespersons, operators,
drivers, attendants, service employees, linemen, laborers, janitors, watchmen, and similar occupational levels,
and other employees whose services are closely associated with those of the employees listed.
Payroll covers the payroll for full- and part-time
production, construction, or nonsupervisory workers who
received pay for any part of the pay period which includes the 12th of the month. The payroll is reported
before deductions of any kind, e.g., for old-age and
unemployment insurance, group insurance, "withholding
tax, bonds, or union dues; also included is pay for overtime, holidays, vacations, and sick leave paid directly
by the firm. Bonuses (unless earned and paid regularly
each pay period), other pay not earned in pay period
reported (e.g., retroactive pay), and the value of free
rent, fuel, meals, or other payment in kind are excluded.
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.
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.
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 workers7 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.
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, construction worker, or nonsupervisoryemployee definitions.
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.
Average Weekly Hours
The workweek information relates to the average
hours for which pay was received, and is different from
standard or scheduled hours. Such factors as absenteeism, labor turnover, part—time work, and stoppages cause
average weekly hours to be lower than scheduled hours
of work for an establishment. Group averages further
reflect changes in the workweek of component industries.
Average Overtime Hours
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.
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.
"Real" earnings are computed by dividing the current
Consumer Price Index into the earnings averages for
the current month. The level of earnings is thus adjusted for changes in purchasing power since the base
period (1957-59).
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 pai'd 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.
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
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)o 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.
1 06
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.
Accessions are the total number of permanent and
temporary additions to the employment roll, including
both new and rehired employees.
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
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:
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 andon Measuremnt of Labor Turnover, which are available upon request.
Size and Regional Stratification
Quits are terminations of employment initiated by
employees, failure to report after being hired, and unauthorized absences, if on the last day of the month the
person has been absent more than 7 consecutive calendar
days.
Layoffs are suspensions without pay lasting or expected to last more than 7 consecutive calendar days,
initiated by the employer without prejudice to the worker.
0 the r sep aration s, which are not published separately
but are included in total separations, are terminations
of employment because of discharge, permanent disability, death, retirement, transfers to another establishment of the company, and entrance into the Armed Forces
for a period expected to last more than 30 consecutive
calendar days.
Comparability With Employment Series
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 folio wing 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.
ESTIMATING METHODS
The principal features of the procedure used to estimate employment for the industry statistics are (1) the
use of the "link relative" technique, which is a form of
107
A number of industries are stratified by size of establishment and or by region, and the stratified production- or nonsupervisory-worker data are used to weight
the hours and earnings into broader industry groupings.
Accordingly, the basic estimating cell for an employment,
hours, or earnings series, as the term is used in the
summary of computational methods may be a whole
industry or a size stratum, a region stratum, or a size
stratum of a region within an industry.
Benchmark Adjustments
Employment estimates are periodically compared
with comprehensive counts of employment which provide
"benchmarks" for the various nonagricultural industries,
and appropriate adjustments are made as Indicated. The
industry estimates are currently projected from March
1965 levels. Normally, benchmark adjustments are made
annually.
The primary source of benchmark information is the
employment data, by industry, compiled quarterly by
State agencies from reports of establishments covered
under State unemployment insurance laws. These tabulations, covering three-fourths of the total nonfarm employment in the United States, are prepared under the
direction of the Bureau of Employment Security. Benchmark data for the residual are obtained from the records
of the Social Security Administration, the Interstate
Commerce Commission, and a number of other agencies
in private industry or government.
The estimates relating to the benchmark month are
compared with new benchmark levels, industry by industry. If revisions are necessary, the monthly series
of estimates are adjusted between the new benchmark
and the preceding one, and the new benchmark for each
industry is then carried forward progressively to the
current month by use of the sample trends. Thus, under
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 SAMPLE
ducing 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 d e s c r i b e d under "Estimating
Methods."
Design
The sampling plan used in the current employment
statistics program is an optimum allocation design known
as "sampling proportionate to average size of establishment." The universe of establishments is stratified first
by industry and then within each industry by size of
establishment in terms of employment. For each industry
the total size of sample is distributed among the size
class cells on the basis of average employment per
establishment in each cell. In practice, this is equivalent
to distributing the predetermined total number of establishments required in the sample among the cells on the
basis of the ratio of employment in each cell to total
employment in the industry. Within each stratum the
sample members are selected at random.
Under this type of design, large establishments fall
into the sample with certainty. The size of the samples
for the various industries is determined empirically
on the basis of experience and of cost considerations.
In a manufacturing industry in which a high proportion of
total employment is concentrated in a relatively few
establishments, a large percentage of total employment
is included in the sample. Consequently, the sample
design for such industries provides for a complete
census of the larger establishments with only a few
chosen from among the smaller establishments or none
at all if the concentration of employment is great
enough. On the other hand, in an industry in which a
large proportion of total employment is in small establishments, the sample design calls for inclusion of all
large establishments, and also for a substantial number
of the smaller ones. Many industries in the trade and
service divisions fall into this category. In order to keep
the sample to a size which can be handled by available
resources, it is necessary to accept samples in these
divisions with a smaller proportion of universe employment than is the case for most manufacturing industries.
Since individual establishments in these nonmanufacturing divisions generally show less fluctuation from
regular cyclical or seasonal patterns than establishments
in manufacturing industries, these smaller samples
(in terms of employment) generally produce reliable
estimates.
In the context of the BLS employment and labor
turnover statistics programs, with their emphasis on pro-

Reliability of the Employment Estimates
The estimates derived from the establishment survey
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 relatively
large size of the BLS establishment sample assures a
very high degree of accuracy. Therefore, sampling
variability as expressed in standard errors of the
estimate is of little consequence, particularly with
respect to month-to-month changes. However, since the
use of the link relative technique requires the use of the
previous month's estimate as the base in computing the
current month's estimate, small sampling and response
e r r o r s may cumulate over several months. To remove
this accumulated error, the estimates are adjusted to
new benchmarks annually. In addition to the sampling
and response e r r o r s , the benchmark revision adjusts
the estimates for 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.)
In fact, at the more detailed industry levels, particularly
within manufacturing, changes in classification are the
major cause of benchmark adjustments. Another cause
of differences, generally minor, arises from improvements in the quality of the benchmark data. (A detailed
description of the March 1965 benchmark is available
from the Bureau upon request.)

The entire difference between the estimate and
benchmarks is assumed to have accumulated at a regular rate. Accordingly, the all employee series, for
months between the current and the last preceding
benchmark, are adjusted by tapering out the difference
back from the current benchmark to the last previous
benchmark. The series for months subsequent to the
benchmark month are revised by projecting the level
of the new benchmark by the trend of the unadjusted
series.

STATISTICS FOR STATES AND AREAS
State and area employment, hours; earnings, and
labor turnover data are collected and prepared by State
agencies in cooperation with BLS. The area statistics
relate to • metropolitan areas. Definitions for all areas
are published each year in the issue of Employment and
Earning sand Monthly Report on the Labor Force that contains State and area annual averages. Changes in
definitions are noted as they occur. Additional industry
detail may be obtained from the State agencies listed
on the inside back cover of each issue. These statistics
are based on the same establishment reports used by
For the most recent months, national, State, and area
estimates are preliminary and are so footnoted in the
tables. These figures are based on less than the total
sample and are revised when all the reports in the
sample design have been received.

Labor Statistics.
BLS for preparing national estimates. For employment, the sum of the State figures may differ slightly
from the equivalent official U.S. totals on a national basis, because some States have more recent
benchmarks than others and because of the effects of differing industrial and geographic stratification.
UNEMPLOYMENT INSURANCE DATA
Insured unemployment represents the number of persons reporting a week of unemployment under an unemployment insurance program. It includes some persons
who are working part time who would be counted as employed in the payroll and household surveys. Excluded
are persons who have exhausted their benefit rights, new
workers who have not earned rights to unemployment
insurance, and persons losing jobs not covered by unemployment insurance systems (agriculture, State and local
government, domestic service, self-employment, unpaid
family work, nonprofit organizations, and firms below a
minimum size). The rate of insured unemployment is the
number of insured unemployed expressed as a percent of
average covered employment in a 12-month period ending
6 to 8 months prior to the week of reference. Initial
claims are notices filed by those losing jobs covered by
an unemployment insurance program that they are starting a period of unemployment. A claimant who continues
to be unemployed a full week is then counted in the
insured, unemployment figure.
Because of differences in State laws and procedures
under which unemployment insurance programs are operated, State unemployment rates generally indicate, but
do not precisely measure, differences among the individual States. Persons wishing to receive a detailed
description of the nature, sources, inclusions and exclusions, and limitations of unemployment insurance data
should address their inquiries to Bureau of Employment
Security, Washington, D.C.
SEASONAL ADJUSTMENT
Many economic statistics reflect a regularly recurring
seasonal movement which can be estimated on the basis
of past experience. By eliminating that part of the change
which can be ascribed to usual seasonal variation, it is
possible to observe the cyclical and other nonseasonal
movements in the series. However, in evaluating deviations from the seasonal pattern—that is, changes in a
seasonally adjusted series—it is important to note that
seasonal adjustment is merely an approximation based
on past experience. Seasonally adjusted estimates have
a broader margin of possible error than the original
data on which they are based, since they are subject not
only to sampling and other errors but, in addition, are
affected by the uncertainties of the seasonal adjustment
process itself. Seasonally adjusted series for selected
labor force and establishment data are published regularly
in Employment and Earnings and Monthly Report on the
Labor Force.
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 (1966), which may be obtained
from the Bureau on request. An earlier version of the
method is described in Appendix G of the 1962 Report of
the Presidents Committee to Appraise Employment and
Unemployment Statistics, Measuring Employment and
Unemployment.
For establishment data, the seasonally adjusted
series on weekly hours and labor turnover rates for
industry groupings are computed by applying factors
1 10
directly to the corresponding unadjusted series, but
seasonally adjusted employment totals for all employees
and production workers by industry divisions are obtained by summing the seasonally adjusted data which
are published for component industries. Indexes of
aggregate weekly man-hours seasonally adjusted, for
mining, contract construction, and the major industries
in manufacturing are obtained by multiplying average
weekly hours, seasonally adjusted, by production workers,
seasonally adjusted and dividing by the 1957-59 base.
For total, manufacturing, and durable and nondurable
goods, the indexes of aggregate weekly man-hours,
seasonally adjusted, are obtained by summing the aggregate weekly man-hours, seasonally adjusted, for the
appropriate component industries and dividing by the
1957-59 base.
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 September 1966 Employment and
Earnings and Monthly Report on the Labor Force, 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
111
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 1966 are published in the February
1967 Employment and Earnings and Monthly Report on
the Labor Force. Revisions will be made annually as each
additional year's data become available.
