(See tables B-2, C-1, C-2, and C-7.) 11 23 Ill 120 122 Employment and Unemployment Developments, May 1970 The unemployment rate increased for the fifth consecutive month in May, while employment declined. The overall unemployment rate rose from 4.8 percent in April to 5.0 percent in May, the highest since February 1965. The increase occurred entirely among adult workers, particularly those seeking full-time work. The unemployment rate for workers covered by State unemployment insurance programs rose sharply in May to 3.6 percent, up from 3.1 percent in April. Nonfarm p a y r o l l employment declined by 270,000 in May, after seasonal adjustment, although about 100,000 of the drop was due to increased strike activity. Nearly all of the decline occurred in manufacturing, where employment fell in both durable and nondurable goods. The factory workweek and overtime hours continued to edge down in May. Unemployment The number of unemployed persons was 3.4 million in May, down 170,000 from April. Unemployment usually falls more than this in May and, as a result, joblessness was up by 160,000 after seasonal adjustment. Since December, unemployment has risen by nearly 1.3 million—600,000 adult men, 425,000 adult women, and 225,000 teenagers. Of the increase, 60 percent were persons who had lost their last jobs, 20 percent were reentrants to the labor force, and 10 percent each were persons who had never worked before and job leavers. All of the April-to-May unemployment increase was among job losers. Thus far this year, the unemployment rate has risen from 3.5 percent in December to 5.0 percent in May, the sharpest increase for a 5-month span in more than a decade. Most of the current increase has been among full-time workers, although the part-time rate has also risen. The May increase occurred entirely among full-time workers, whose rate rose from 4.4 to 4.7 percent. The unemployment rate for adult men rose from 3.2 to 3.5 percent between April and May; this rate has risen continuously for the last 6 months. The jobless rate for married men, at 2.6 percent in May, was up from 2.4 percent in April and 1.5 percent a year ago. Rates for both groups of workers equaled levels of early 1965. After remaining virtually unchanged in April, the unemployment rate for adult women rose from 4.4 to 5*1 percent in May. Although increases in joblessness have not been as great for adult women as for men over this past year, the May rise also brought their rate to early1965 levels. The teenage unemployment rate in May moved down.from 15.7 to 14.3 percent, primarily among girls. The teenage rate had risen sharply in April, after changing very little in the first 3 months of this year. With the exception of April, the May teenage rate was the highest in more than 4 years. The jobless rate for workers covered by State unemployment insurance programs was 3.6percent in mid-May, up from 3.1 percent in midApril. The May rise of 0.5 percentage point was the sharpest over-the-month increase since November 1959 and followed an increase of 0.4 percentage point in April. At a seasonally adjusted level of 1.9 million in mid-May, the volume of insured unemployment was up 300,000 from mid-April and 900,000 from a year ago. All of the increase in unemployment in May occurred among white workers, whose jobless rate rose from 4.3 to 4.6 percent. The Negro jobless rate fell from 8.7 to 8.0 percent but was still above the 7.1 rate of March. The ratio of the Negro to white unemployment rates in May was less than 2 to 1, as it had been in 7 out of the last 8 months. The over-the-month increase for whites occurred among adult workers, while the only significant decline for Negroes was among teenagers. Unemployment rates for craftsmen and operatives rose over the month, as jobless rates in manufacturing and c o n s t r u c t i o n increased markedly. Rates in these two industries had been virtually unchanged for the past 3 months. At 5.2 percent, the manufacturing rate was 2 percentage points above its year-ago level, while the unemployment rate in construction—11.9 percent— was double the May 1969 rate. With unemployment increasing for the fifth consecutive month, the average jobless period lengthened in May. The number of persons who had been unemployed for 5 to 14 weeks rose by 140,000 (seasonally adjusted), and long-term unemployment of 15 weeks or longer edged up for the seventh consecutive month to 610,000. The average (mean) duration of unemployment, which had remained about steady from December to April, was 9.0 weeks in May, slightly above the level of the past 2 years but below the average of most of the preceding decade. The number of persons who were working part time for economic reasons—such as slack work, material shortages, could find only part-time work, or started or stopped a job within the survey week—fell by 110,000 in May to2.2 million; however, this followed a jump of 425,000 in April. The percent of labor force time lost by the unemployed and by persons involuntarily working part time rose from 5.1 percent in April to 5.4 percent in May, its highest point since April 1965. (Labor force time lost is a measure of man-hours lost to the economy as a percent of potentially available labor force man-hours.) Civilian Labor Force and Total Employment The civilian labor force declined in May, falling by 320,000 to 85.8 million, after seasonal adjustment. All of the decline occurred among adult women, particularly those in the part-time labor force. The May labor force decline followed substantial rises in the December-March period. Although the labor forces for adult men and teenagers were still above December levels (by 650,000 and 310,000, respectively), that for adult women has fallen back to the December level. Total employment, instead of increasing substantially as it usually does from April to May, decreased and, after seasonal adjustment, was down 475,000 to 78.4 million. All of the decline occurred in nonagricultural employment. Industry Payroll Employment Nonagricultural p a y r o l l employment increased less than it usually does in May, and, after seasonal adjustment, was down by 270,000. Increased strike activity, mainly in contract construction and manufacturing, accounted for about 100,000 of this drop. (Workers on strike are not counted as employed in the payroll employment series, whereas they are classified as "employed—with a job but not at work" in the household series.) As in recent months, the April-to-May cutback in employment occurred largely among the manufacturing industries. Since September, employment in manufacturing has declined by 700,000. In contrast, employment in the serviceproducing industries has increased by 1.0 million during the same period. Beginning in March, however, e m p l o y m e n t gains posted in the service-producing industries have been very small and were due mostly to Federal government hiring of temporary Census workers. The May decline of 225,000 (seasonally adjusted) in manufacturing reflected widespread decreases among both durable and nondurable goods industries. Employment in durable goods fell by 130,000, while the nondurable goods industries posted their first sizeable over-themonth decline (90,000) since manufacturing employment began its current reductions. In durable goods, cutbacks of about20,000-25,000 occurred in the electrical equipment, primary metals, machinery, and fabricated metal products industries. Within nondurable goods, the largest decline occurred in the rubber products industry—35,000—due entirely to a strike. Contract construction payrolls declined by 80,000 in May, after seasonal adjustment, with three-fourths of the drop accounted for by increased strike activity. Employment in this industry was about unchanged from a year ago, after allowance for strikes. Payroll employment in trade fell slightly in May, the third consecutive small monthly decline. State and local government employment rose by 40,000, partially due to the return of strikers. There was little change in the other service-producing industries. Hours of Work The workweek for all rank-and-file workers on private nonfarm payrolls inched down to 37.2 hours, seasonally adjusted, in May. Since early fall, average weekly hours have gradually drifted downward, with the decline totaling 0.6 hour. In manufacturing, average weekly hours edged down by 0.1 hour, seasonally adjusted, between April and May. Since December, the average factory workweek has fallen by over threefourths of an hour. Over-the-month declines were concentrated in the nondurable goods industries, with the largest drops registered in textiles and rubber products and in machinery. Factory overtime continued its downward trend of recent months, falling by 0.1 hour in May to 2.9 hours (seasonally adjusted). The decline reflected reduced overtime hours in non- durable goods. Since May a year ago, factory overtime hours have dropped by 0.8 hour. The only industry to post a substantial gain in the workweek in May was transportation and public utilities. At 40.5 hours after seasonal adjustment, the average workweek increased by 0.3 hour between April and May. (Beginning with this issue of Employment and Earnings, separate data on the transportation and public utilities and service industries have been added to the series on hours and earnings. See tables C-l, C-2, and C-7.) Earnings Average hourly earnings for production and nonsupervisory workers on private payrolls rose by 2 cents inMay to $3.20. Compared with a year ago, hourly earnings were up by 19 cents, or 6.3 percent. Average weekly earnings increased $1.06 between April and May to $118.72. Compared with May 1969, weekly earnings have advanced by $5.24, or 4.6 percent. Among the major industries, gains were posted in all industries except finance, insurance, and real estate. Over the year ending in April 1970, average weekly earnings rose by 5.3 percent; after adjustment for consumer price changes, however, earnings were down by 0.7 percent. Chart 1.

Source: Manpower Administration 10 1968 i i 1969 i i i 1970 n BLS Establishment Employment Estimates Revised to March 1969 Benchmark Levels *by Carol Utter The employment estimates from the Bureau of Labor Statistics establishment payroll survey have been adjusted to reflect complete employment counts as of March 1969. These adjustments affect most of the published series and in general mean that the employment series have been r e vised back to March 1968 (the previous complete count) and forward to the current month's estimate. Estimates of hours and earnings and labor turnover, which are weighted by employment estimates, may also be revised as a result of the changes in employment levels. The March 1969 total benchmark count of 69 million workers on nonagricultural payrolls was 128,000 or 0.2 percent higher than the original estimate. The adjustments amounted to less than 1 percent for all major divisions except mining, which was revised by 1.5 percent. (See table 1.) Benchmarks are an integral part of the Bureau of Labor Statistics establishment survey program. They provide a precise measure of the employment level. The monthly reports submitted by a sample of e m p l o y e r s estimate month-to-month changes in that level. New benchmark levels are determined in March of each year for each of the most detailed industrial classifications for which estimates are available. The corresponding current estimates are adjusted to the new levels which then are aggregated through successively inclusive series to total nonagricultural employment. Monthly estimates of employment, hours, and earnings are prepared and published in considerable industrial detail—the three-digit SIC level of most nonmanufacturing industries and the four-digit SIC level for many manufacturing industries. Of the the 201 three-digit categories published, the employment estimates for only 17 *Of the Division of Industry Employment Statistics. were revised by 5 percent or more. The distribution of the 201 industry groups, by employment-size class and by percentage adjustment required, illustrates the tendency for the percent change to vary inversely with the size of employment. (See table 2.) ' About 30 percent of nonagricultural workers are employed in manufacturing industries. The importance of this division in size and influence requires that estimates be published in 4-digit SIC detail. The degree of accuracy that can be assigned to the estimates over time is of primary interest. The March 1969 estimates and benchmark levels for the major industry groups in manufacturing appear in table 3. Of the 21 major groups in this division, 19 were revised by less than 2 percent. Revisions were somewhat larger for some of the 4-digit component industries, but two-thirds of these differed by less than 3 percent, and only 12 percent differed by 5 percent or more. Why Estimates Differ From Benchmarks One reason for differences between estimates and benchmarks lies in the limitation of any sample in representing a universe; that is, a certain amount of error is to be expected from sample-derived estimates. A complete monthly count of employment would reflect all changes in the level from month to month, but complete coverage involving several million reports each month would be prohibitively expensive and time consuming. Derived from a sample of approximately 160,000 reports, the BLS establishment series provides estimates at moderate cost within a month following the reference week. A second reason for differences between estimates and benchmarks is the procedure used in keeping the industrial classification of establishments up to date. Establishments are Table 1. Comparison of BLS nonagricultural employment estimates with benchmarks by industry division, March 1969 Employment in thousands) Industry division Benchmark Estimate Differences Between Benchmark and Estimates Amount Percent 69f 022 -128 610 3,077 19,978 11,841 8,137 4,346 14,201 3,678 10,523 9 -30 -39 - 6 -33 18 1 28 -27 -. 3 3,489 11,012 12,268 2,737 9,531 Mining Contract construction Manufacturing Durable goods Nondurable goods Transportation and public utilities Wholesale and retail trade Wholesale trade Retail trade Finance, insurance, and real estate • — Services Government Federal State and local 68, 894 601 3,107 20,017 11,847 8,170 4,328 14,200 3,650 10, 550 Total 3,490 10,913 12,279 2,737 9,542 11 0 11 -.9 .1 0 .1 -0.2 5 0 2 1 4 4 1/ y 1/ Less than 0. 05 percent.

Many establishments engage in more than one activity. When the composition of their output or services changes so that what was once a secondary product or activity becomes a primary one, the classification of the establishment is changed to the industry of its new major activity. This change is not introduced into the employment estimates at the time it occurs but at the time of the annual benchmark adjustment based on product information reported annually. Thus, differences between estimates andbenchmarks for an industry may result because the estimates are tied to the former benchmark levels and do not reflect intervening classification changes for individual establishments. At the more detailed industry levels, particularly within manufacturing, changes in classification are the major cause of benchmark adjustment. A third reason for benchmark differences arises from the use of bias adjustment factors based on past experience. The benchmark linkrelative employment estimating technique, which is a form of ratio estimation, results in biased estimates, because this technique cannot measure the employment of new firms entering the economy during the current month. The size of the bias (the influence of the employment of new firms) is considered negligible for most purposes; however, in the BLS establishment survey, for which the previous month's estimate is used to compute the current month's estimate, such bias would cumulate if counteracting steps were not taken. Accordingly, small bias correction factors are applied to the employment estimates each month. Because the size of these factors must be determined by past experience, small errors may arise if the rate at which new firms enter an industry increases or decreases. Between 1968 and 1969, the rate of entry of new firms into manufacturing and service industries was slightly greater than anticipated. Table 3.

A fourth, g e n e r a l l y infrequent, cause of benchmark differences arises from improvements in the quality of the benchmark data. The most recent example of this type of revision was the more comprehensive data on religious and charitable institutions which the 1965benchmark revision introduced into the employment levels. In most instances of recent benchmark r e visions, the estimates for major industry divisions have varied from benchmarks by less than 1 percent. A comparison of the size of the revisions made since 1965 is presented in table 4. The difference between estimates and benchmarks is assumed to have accumulated in constant increments over the previous 12 months. Most series, therefore, are adjusted by wedging or tapering out the difference over the period from the new benchmark to the preceding one, 12 months earlier. Estimates subsequent to the new benchmark are revised by projecting the new level forward to the current month using the sample trend. The latter part of the r e vision is then subject to change when the March 1970 benchmarks are established. Table 4.

These tabulations provide monthly employment counts of establishments covered under State unemployment insurance laws. Each calendar quarter, covered employers file a report with their respective State employment security agencies. This report includes total employment for the week including the 12th for each month of the quarter. State tabulations of these data, summarized according to industry, are provided to the Bureau of Labor Statistics for benchmark purposes. Unemployment insurance (UI) data account for approximately three-fourths of the total nonagricultural employment benchmark. A number of industries, such as railroads, private schools, hospitals, and nonprofit organizations, are exempt from mandatory UI coverage. In addition, the UI laws in 28 States (as of January 1969) provide that employers of fewer than a specified number (usually 4) of workers be exempt from coverage. Benchmark data for the latter as well as for certain nonprofit institutions are obtained from the tabulations of employment and taxable wages of employees covered under social security laws as published in County Business Patterns by the Bureau of the Census. For the remaining industries, benchmark data are obtained from several public and private agencies including the Interstate Commerce Commission (interstate railroads), the American Hospital Association (private nonprofit hospitals), the U.S. Office of Education and the National Catholic Welfare Conference (private schools, colleges, and universities), the U.S. Civil Service Commission (Federal Government), and the Governments Division of the Bureau of the Census (State and local Government). The Bureau's reporting sample is also an important source of benchmark information. Since sample reports are current and are r e - viewed monthly, reporting errors are disclosed that otherwise may remain undetected. The industry classification of each sample establishment is reviewed annually on the basis of information supplied by the employer. Changes in industry classification of sample reports often precede such changes in other sources of information. Insofar as sample reports are known to differ from the corresponding employer's reports included in other benchmark source material, the data in the other source are modified accordingly. Relation of Benchmarks to Other Series Benchmarks are not available for the hours and earnings and labor turnover series. The levels shown are derived from the BLS r e porting sample only. For primary estimating cells, i.e., region and/or size strata within the most detailed industry classifications, the series are computed directly from reported figures. Series for more inclusive categories, however, require a weighting mechanism to yield meaningful averages. The employment benchmarks are used as weights in computing the hours and earnings averages and labor turnover rates for broader industry groupings. Adjustment of the estimates to new benchmarks may result in reallocation of weights, which, in turn, may change the averages. To influence the average of a broad group, changes in employment have to be relatively large and must affect industries which have substantially higher or lower averages than the other i n d u s t r i e s in their group. Generally speaking, the introduction of new benchmarks does not change hours and earnings and labor turnover series for broader groupings by more than 0.1 hour, 1 cent, or 0.1 per 100 rate, respectively. The changes caused by the 1969 benchmark revision are summarized in table 5. Revision of Seasonally Adjusted Data The BLS uses an adaption of the standard ratio-to-moving average method for seasonally adjusting the employment and weekly hours series. This method has aprovisionfor "moving" adjustment factors to take account of changing seasonal patterns. After another year of data is added to a series, a number of the factors for the last few previous years will change slightly, even when the unadjusted figures for previous years remain the same. Thus, at the time of the annual benchmark revision, the seasonally adjusted data are revised back for a period of 10 years (in the present instance, from January 1960 forward), whereas the unadjusted series are unchanged prior to April 1968. The changes in the seasonally adjusted levels for the earlier years, however, may be attributed largely to differences due to rounding. The BLS seasonal factor method was designed for time series with steady or slowly changing seasonal patterns and therefore does not reflect adequately abrupt shifts in seasonally such as those experienced by the transportation equipment industry. The major seasonal movement in this industry is caused by the model changeover activities in the automobile industry which, based on administrative decisions, may shift the closing of plants backward and forward each year by a few weeks or months. Consequently, the seasonally adjusted employment series for transportation equipment has not always r e flected the proper cyclical trends. In order to provide more reasonable current seasonally adjusted estimates, the Bureau is introducing an improvement in its method of seasonally adjusting the employment and production worker series for this industry during the months generally affected by model changeover (July, August, and/or September), which will remove the effect of the plant closings for retooling. The historical data have been revised back to 1954 using a comparable method. Similar special adjustments have been used for many years in seasonally adjusting the employee series for retail trade (to compensate for the shifting date of Easter) and for Federal Government (to remove the effect of the Christmas post office temporaries, whose number is determined by administrative decision each year). The revised seasonally adjusted series r e flect experience through February 1970. Seasonal factors for use in current adjustment are presented on page . A detailed description of the BLS seasonal factor method is given in the booklet entitled The BLS Seasonal Factor Method 1966, which may be obtained from the Bureau on request. New Series Published This issue of Employment and Earnings introduces nonsupervisory worker, hours, and earnings series for the transportation and public utilities and services divisions. This means that hours and earnings estimates will be available for all divisions in the private nonagricultural economy. The new series appear in tables B-2 (production workers), C-l, C-2, and C-7 (hours and earnings). Employment for Some Industries Not Published Monthly Monthly employment estimates are published for most of the significant industries in the nonagricultural economy. Those industries for which monthly data are not published either are too small or do not meet established publication standards, e.g., inadequate samples. Employment benchmarks for these industries are presented in table 6. Table 5.

These factors will be revised at the time the industry < , , _ and more current data are available. The seasonal movements are measured in order to adjust the data statistically for such recurring events as warm and cold weather, crop-growing cycles, holidays, vacations, regular industry model changeover periods, and the like. These movements are generally the largest single component of month-to-month changes in employment, hours, and labor turnover. The seasonal factors which follow enable the analyst to remove these influences from the data in order to determine more basic trends. These factors are to be used with data adjusted to the March 1969 benchmark. 1: Seasonal adjustment factors for employees on nonagricultural payrolls, by industry division and groups Mar. Apr.

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 50,000 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 agricultural and nonagricultural industries is included. The payroll survey covers only wage and salary employees on the payrolls of nonagricultural establishments. Databasedonestablishmentpay'rollrecords 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 30 million nonagriculture 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 Nation1 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 Manpower Administration, 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 122 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. 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 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 theManpower A d m i n i s t r a t i o n 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 Statistics on manufactures and business, Bureau of the Census. BLS establishment statistics on employment differ from employment counts derived by the Bureau of the Census from its censuses or annual sample surveys of manufacturing establishments and the censuses of business establishments. The major reasons for some noncomparability are different treatment of business units considered parts of an establishment, such as central administrative offices and auxiliary units, the industrial classification of establishments, and different reporting patterns by multiunit companies. There are also differences in the scope of the industries covered, e.g., the Census of Business excludes contract construction, professional services, public utilities, and financial establishments, whereas these are included in BLS statistics. County Business Patterns. Data in County Business Patterns, published jointly by the U.S. Departments of Commerce and Health, Education, and Welfare, differ from BLS establishment statistics in the treatment of central administrative offices and auxiliary units. Differences may also arise because of industrial classification and reporting practices. In addition, CBP excludes interstate railroads and government, and coverage is incomplete for some of the nonprofit activities. Employment covered by State unemployment insurance programs. Not all nonagricultural 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 28 States (as of January 1, 1970). In general, these are establishments with less than four employees. Labor Force Data port 313). This report is a v a i l a b l e from BLS on request. COLLECTION AND COVERAGE 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- 123 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. Unemployed persons by reasons for unemployment are divided into four major groups. (1) Job losers are persons whose employment ended involuntarily who immediately began looking for work and persons on layoff. (2) Job leavers are persons who quit or otherwise terminated their employment voluntarily and immediately began looking for work. (3) Reentrants are persons who previously worked at a full-time job lasting 2 weeks or longer but who were out of the labor force prior to beginning to look for work. (4) New entrants are persons who never worked at a full-time job lasting 2 weeks or longer. Each month, 50,000 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 50,000 occupied units,there are 8,500 sample units in an average mo nth 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. 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 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. 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. The job-loser, job-leaver, reentrant, and new entrant rates are each calculated as a percent of the civilian labor force; the sum of the rates for the four groups thus equals the total unemployment rate. 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. Each employed person is counted only once. Those who held more than one job are counted in the job at which they worked the greatest number of hours during the survey week. Included in the total are employed citizens of foreign countries, temporarily in the United States, who are not living on the premises of an Embassy. 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. 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 months1 absence. 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. Occupation, industry, and class of worker for the employed apply to the job held in the survey week. Per124 sons 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. cording to whether they usually work full or part time. 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. The class-of-worker breakdown specifies "wage and salary workers," subdivided into private and government workers, "self-employed workers," and "unpaid family workers." Wage and salary workers receive wages, salary, commission, tips, or pay in kind from a private employer or from a governmental unit. Self-employed persons are those who work for profit or fees in their own business, profession, or trade, or operate a farm. Unpaid family workers are persons working without pay for 15 hours a week or more on a farm or in a business operated by a member of the household to whom they are related by blood or marriage. ESTIMATING METHODS 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. 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 ac- 125 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. First-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. 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 migra- Table A. Average standard error of major employment status categories tion between the United S t a t e s and other countries. 3. Composite estimate'procedure.In deriving statistics for a given month, a composite estimating procedure is used which takes account of net changes from the previous month for continuing parts of the sample (75 percent) as well as the sample results for the current month. This procedure reduces the sampling variability of month-to-month changes especially and of the levels for most items also. (In thousands) Average standard error of— Rounding of Estimates The sums of individual items may not always equal the totals shown in the same tables because of independent rounding of totals and components to the nearest thousand. Differences, however, are insignificant. 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.

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 a r e acceptable approximations of the standard errors of year-to-year change. Table B. Standard error of level of monthly estimates (In thousands) Both sexes Size of estimate 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. 10 50 100 250 500 1,000 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 mo nth-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 Monthto-month change (consecutive months only) BOTH SEXES 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.

Where the numerator is a subclass of the denominator, estimated percentages are relatively more reliable than the corresponding absolute estimates of the numerator of the percentage, particularly if the percentage is large (50 percent or greater). Table D shows the standard errors for percentages derived from the survey. Linear interpolation may be used for percentages and base figures not shown in table D. 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. 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 error of the monthly level in table C, it may be seen that the standard error of the 500,000 increase is about 126,000. Table D.

Payroll reports provide current information on wage and salary employment, hours, earnings, and labor turnover in nonagricultural establishments, by industry and geographic location. Shuttle Schedules Two types of data collection schedules arje used: Form BLS 790-Monthly Report on Employment, Payroll, and Hours; and Form DL 1219-Monthly Report on Job Openings and Labor Turnover. These schedules are of the " s h u t t l e " type, with space for each month of the calendar year. The c o l l e c t i n g agency returns the schedule to the respondent each month 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. Federal-State Cooperation Under cooperative arrangements with State agencies, the respondent fills out a single employment or labor turnover reporting form, 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 Form BLS 790 provides for entry of data on the number of full- and part-time workers on the payrolls of non127 Government, hours and earnings relate to all employees, both supervisory and nonsupervisory. Terms are defined below. When the pay period reported is longer than 1 week, figures are reduced to a weekly basis. agricultural 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. Form DL 1219 provides for the collection of information on the total number of accessions and separations, by type, during the calendar month, and was revised in January 1969 to provide for the collection of job openings data as well. 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. CONCEPTS Industrial Classification Establishments reporting on Form BLS 790 and Form DL 1219 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, 1967. 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. N on supervisory employees include employees (not above the working supervisory level) such as office and clerical workers, repairmen, salespersons, operators, drivers, physicians, lawyers, accountants, nurses, social workers, research aids, teachers, draftsmen, photographers, beauticians, musicians, restaurant workers, custodial workers, attendants, linemen, laborers, janitors, watchmen, and similar occupational levels, and other employees whose services are closely associated with those of the employees listed. Industry Employment Employment data, except those 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. 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), tips, and the value of free rent, fuel, meals, or other payment in kind are excluded. "Fringe benefits" (such as health and other types of insurance, contributions to retirement, etc. paid by the employer) are also excluded. The data exclude proprietors, the self-employed, unpaid volunteer, or family workers, farm workers, and domestic workers in households. Salaried officers of corporations are included. Government employment covers only civilian employees; military personnel are excluded. Persons on establishment payrolls 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 have not reported to work during the period. Man-hours cover man-hours paid for, during the pay period which includes the 12th of the month, for production, construction, or nonsupervisory workers. The manhours include hours paid for holidays and vacations, and for sick leave when pay is received directly from the firm. Industry Hours and Earnings Overtime hours]cover hours worked by production or related workers for which overtime premiums were paid because the hours were in excess of the number of hours of either the straight-time workday or the workweek during the pay period which includes the 12th of the month. Weekend and holiday hours are included only if overtime 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 nonagricultural components. For Federal 128 premiums 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 workers1 earnings in individual establishments also affect the general earnings averages. Averages for groups and divisions further reflect changes in average hourly earnings for individual industries. Averages of hourly earnings differ from wage rates. Earnings are the actual return to the worker for a stated period of time; rates are the amounts stipulated for a given unit of work or time. The e a r n i n g s series 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 overtime premiums were paid. 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, overtime premiums may be paid for hours in excess of the straight-time workday although less than a full week is worked. Diverse trends at the industry-group level also may 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. Hours and Earnings For Total Private Nonagricultural Industries This series covers all nonagricultural industry divisions except government. The principal source of payroll data is Form BLS 790. Secondary source material such as Employment and Wages (Manpower Administration), County Business Patterns (Bureau of the Census), and additional supporting information such as The Hospital Guide, Part II, of the American Hospital Association and special studies by the National Council of Churches supplement data for certain industry groups within the service division. For a technical description of this series, see the article, "Hours and Earnings for Workers in Private Nonagricultural Industries," published in the May 1967 issue of Employment and Earnings and Monthly Report on the Labor Force. 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 except executives, officials, and staff assistants (ICC group I) who received pay during the month. 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. 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 gross average weekly earnings for all production or nonsupervisory workers in the industry division excluding other income and income earned by other family members. "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). 129 Quits are terminations of employment initiated by employees, failure to report after being hired, and unauthorized absences, if on the last day of the month the person has been absent more than 7 consecutive calendar days. Average Hourly Earnings Excluding Overtime Average hourly earnings excluding overtime premium 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 li 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. 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 arations, which are not published separately but are included in total separations, are terminations of employment because of discharge, permanent disability, death, retirement, transfers to another establishment of the company, and entrance into the Armed Forces for a period expected to last more than 30 consecutive calendar days. Indexes of Aggregate Weekly Payrolls and Man-Hours The indexes of aggregate weekly payrolls and manhours are prepared by dividing the current month's aggregate by the monthly average for the 1957-59 period. The man-hour aggregates are the product of average weekly hours and production-worker employment, and the payroll aggregates are the product of gross average weekly earnings and production-worker employment. Relationship to 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 BureauTs employment series for the following reasons: (1) Accessions and separations are computed for the entire calendar month; the employment reports refer to the pay period which includes the 12th of the month; and (2) employees on strike are not counted as turnover actions although such, employees are excluded from the employment estimates if the work stoppage extends through the report period. Labor Turnover Labor turnover is the gross movement of wage and salary workers into and out of employed status with respect to individual establishments. This movement, which relates to a calendar month, is divided into two broad types: Accessions (new hires and rehires) and separations (terminations of employment initiated by either employer or employee). Each type of action is cumulated for a calendar month and expressed as a rate per 100 employees. The data relate to all employees, whether full- or part-time, permanent or temporary, including executive, office, sales, other salaried personnel, and production workers. Transfers to another establishment of the company are included, beginning with January 1959, ESTIMATING METHODS The principal features of the procedure used to estimate employment for the industry statistics are (1) the use of the "link relative" technique, which is a form of ratio estimation, (2) periodic adjustment of employment levels to new benchmarks, and (3) the use of size and regional stratification. 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 mont^h are obtained by multiplying the estimates for the previous month by these "link relatives. In addition, small bias correction factors are applied to selected employment estimates each month. The size of the bias correction factors is determined from past experience. 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—Chapter 2, Employment, Hours, and Earnings, and Chapter 3, Labor Turnover, reprinted from the Handbook of Methods for Surveys and Studies, BLS Bulletin 1458—which are available upon request. Accessions are the total number of permanent >and temporary additions to the employment roll, including both new and rehired employees. New hires are temporary or permanent additions to the employment roll of persons who have never before been employed in the establishment (except employees transferring from another establishment of the same company) or of former employees not recalled by the employer. Other accessions, which are not published separately but are included in total accessions, are all additions to the employment roll which are not classified as new hires, including transfers from another establishment of the company. Separations are terminations of employment during the calendar month and are classified according to cause: Quits, layoffs, and other separations, 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 produc130 Data for all months since the last benchmark to which the series has been adjusted are 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. tion- 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 THE SAMPLE Employment estimates are compared periodically 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 1969 levels. Normally, benchmark adjustments are made annually. Design The sampling plan used in the current employment statistics program is known as "sampling proportionate to average size of establishment." This design is an optimum allocation design among strata since the sampling variance is proportional to the average size of establishments. 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 number of sample units 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 noncertainty stratum the sample members are selected at random. The primary sources of benchmark information are 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 nonagricultural employment in the United States, are prepared under the direction of the Manpower Administration. 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; the sample is used to measure the month-to-month changes in the level. A comparison of the actual amounts of revisions made in the last 3 benchmark years follows*.

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 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. 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- 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 table below shows the approximate coverage, in terms of employment, of the labor turnover sample. Coverage Metal mining 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.

This measure is the standard deviation adjusted for the bias in ratio estimates (RMSE =Y(Standard Deviation)2 + (Bias) 2 ). If the bias is small, the chances are about 2 out of 3 that an estimate from the sample would differ from its benchmark by less than the root mean square error. The chances are about 19 out of 20 that the difference would be less than twice the root mean square error. 2,737,000 100 5,065,000 | 53 Since a few establishments do not report payroll and man-hour information, hours and earnings estimates may be based on a slightly smaller sample than employment estimates. 2 State and area estimates of Federal employment are based on reports from a sample of Federal establishments, collected through the BLS-State cooperative program. 10,448,400 64,400 59,000 The estimates derive3 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 high degree of accuracy. However, since 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 errors may cumulate over several months. To remove this accumulated error, the estimates are adjusted annually to new benchmarks. In addition to the sampling and response errors, 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.

Monthly level Month-to-month 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 Earnings that contains State and area annual averages (usually the May issue). 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. change 700 900 1,800 3,000 5,000 9,700 31,400 For the States and the areas shown in the B and C sections of this periodical, all the annual average data for the detailed industry statistics currently published by each cooperating State agency are presented (from the earliest date of availability of each series) in a summary volume published annually by the BLS. 600 800 1,700 2,900 5,000 9,400 30,600 80,000 88,000 UNEMPLOYMENT INSURANCE DATA vacations. 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 thatthey 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 Manpower Administration, Washington, D.C. 20210. 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 and workers who have not earned rights to unemployment insurance. In general, excluded from coverage are those persons who worked in firms whose size excluded them from the unemployment insurance laws, as well as many persons engaged in agriculture, domestic service, unpaid family work, selected nonprofit organizations, State and local government and self-employment. Also excluded from the insured unemployment count, but included as employed in the household survey, are those persons who earned no wages during the payroll period because they were temporarily absent from their jobs due to taking time off, illness and industrial disputes as well as unpaid 133 SEASONAL ADJUSTMENT 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. The revised seasonally adjusted series for the establishment data reflect experience through February 1970. Seasonal factors to be used for current adjustment are shown in the June 1970 Employment and Earnings, and revisions will be made coincidental with the adjustment of series to new benchmark levels. Many economic statistics reflect a regularly recurring seasonal movement which can be estimated on the basis of past experience. By eliminating that part of the change which can be ascribed to usual seasonal variation, it is possible to observe the cyclical and other nonseasonal movements in the series. However, in evaluating deviations from the seasonal pattern—that is, changes in a seasonally adjusted series—it is important to note that seasonal adjustment is merely an approximation based on past experience. Seasonally adjusted estimates have a broader margin of possible error than the original data on which they are based, since they are subject not only to sampling and other errors but, in addition, are affected by the uncertainties of the seasonal adjustment process itself. Seasonally adjusted series for selected labor force and establishment data are published regularly in Employment and Earnings. The seasonal adjustment method used for these series is an adaptation of the standard ratio-to-moving average method, with a provision for "moving" adjustment factors to take account of changing seasonal patterns. A detailed description of the method is given in the booklet, The BLS Seasonal Factor Method (1966), which may be. obtained from the Bureau on request. For each of the three ma jor labor force components— agricultural and nonagricultural employment and unemployment—data for four age-sex groups (male and female workers under age 20 and age 20 and over) are separately adjusted for seasonal variation and are then added to give seasonally adjusted total figures. In order to produce seasonally adjusted total employment and civilian labor force data, the appropriate series are aggregated. The seasonally adjusted rate of unemployment is derived by dividing the seasonally adjusted figure for total unemployment (the sum of four seasonally adjusted age-sex components) by the figure for the seasonally adjusted civilian labor force (the sum of twelve seasonally adjusted age-sex components). For establishment data, the seasonally adjusted series on weekly hours and labor turnover rates for industry groupings are computed by aDplying factors directly to the corresponding unadjusted series. However, seasonally adjusted employment totals for all employees and production workers by industry division are obtained by summing seasonally adjusted data for the 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 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 1969 are published in the February 1970 Employment and Earnings. Revisions will be made annually as each additional year's data become available. ATTENTION As discussed in the Technical Note, the Bureau periodically 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. Industry data for all national series shown in this report have been adjusted to March 1969 benchmarks. Data from April 196^forward are subject to revision at the time of the next benchmark. Beginning with the June 1970 and subsequent issues of Employment and Earnings, the national data in sections B, C, and D supersede those published in previous issues, as well as those appearing in the Handbook of Labor Statistics, 1970. Comparable data will be published in Employment and Earnings, United States, 1909-70, BLS Bulletin 1312-7. 134 Summary of Methods for Computing Industry Statistics on Employment, Hours, Earnings, and Lnhor Turnover Item Basic estimating cells (industry, region, size, or region/size ceil) Aggregate industry levels (divisions, groups and, where stratified, individual cells) Monthly Data All employees . .
