Prepared under the supervision of Robert M. Shaw EMPLOYMENT AND UNEMPLOYMENT HIGHLIGHTS February 1962 THE MONTHLY REPORT ON THE LABOR FORCE: FEBRUARY 1962 Gains in manufacturing employment and the workweek were the outstanding features in the sharply improved job situation in February. Job increases in manufacturing, amounting to 55,000 (almost 100,000 on a seasonally adjusted basis), were concentrated in the metals and metal using industries. In addition, construction employment declined by less than the usual amount in February, after losses in January attributable largely to the unusually severe weather. As a result, the overall number of workers on nonfarm payrolls, which normally drops at this time of year, remained steady at 53. 7 million in February. This total was at a record for the month. The factory workweek, which had dropped sharply in January, rose by 0. 3 hour to 40. 0 hours in February, the highest level for this month since 1957. Both average weekly and hourly earnings remained substantially unchanged over the month. Weekly earnings, at about $95, were almost $6 higher than a year ago. As reported on March 7, unemployment, which normally shows little change at this time of year, declined by 120, 000 over the month to 4. 5 million in February, and the seasonally adjusted rate of unemployment dipped to 5. 6 percent from 5. 8 percent a month earlier. This was the lowest rate for any month since July 1960. State insured unemployment decreased by 100, 000 from mid-January to 2. 4 million in mid-February. Total employment rose sharply over the month (by 700, 000) to 65. 8 million in February, showing better than seasonal gains following the unusually bad weather of the January survey week. i Total nonagricultural employment, including the self-employed, unpaid family workers, and domestics, was up by 600, 000 over the month to 61. 2 million in February, although little change is normally expected in this period. Both this total, and the number of workers on nonfarm payrolls were about 1-1/4 million above their levels a year ago. The civilian labor force rose by 600,000 in February (much more than seasonally) but was no larger than its relatively high level a year ago. The total labor force, including the Armed Forces, was about 300,000 higher than in February 1961. iii TRENDS IN EMPLOYMENT AND UNEMPLOYMENT Actual and Seasonally Adjusted July 1948 to Date MILLIONS OF PERSONS 72 MILLIONS OF PERSONS 72 Total Civilian Employment 70 70 68 68 66 66 SEASONALLY - ADJUSTED 64 64 62 62 60 60 58 58 ^ACTUAL 56 56 ot iiiiiiiinfi 8 I I n I Unemployment TOTAL .ACTUAL TOTAL SEASONALLY ADJUSTED ' INSURED \j ACTUAL' 1948 1949 1950 1.

Beginning in January 1960. data include Alaska and Hawaii Nonfarm Payroll Employment The number of workers on nonfarm payrolls was steady at 53. 7 million between January and February, instead of showing a seasonal decline of about 250, 000 usual for this time of year. Manufacturing employment edged up by 55, 000 over the month to 16.4 million in February reflecting mainly increases where losses are normal in steel, electrical equipment, fabricated metals, machinery, and rubber. Gains on a seasonally adjusted basis in the transportation equipment industry resulted not only from improvement in aircraft and automobiles but also from the return of 6, 000 Studebaker workers who had been on strike in January. The seasonally adjusted gain in construction employment (where job levels were about unchanged over the month at 2. 3 million instead of declining seasonally) represented a partial recovery from the weather-connected losses in January. From the low point of the recession 12 months ago, nonfarm payroll employment has risen by 1. 2 million (seasonally adjusted), and is back to the level of May I960, when the general downturn commenced. However, of the major industries which experienced employment cutbacks during the recession, only trade has regained its May I960 level, while manufacturing employment is still about 450, 000 jobs shy of that point even after regaining about 600, 000 jobs during the recovery period. In construction, mining, and transportation, employment has continued to drop even during the general recovery period. The job total in this group of industries is 100, 000 lower than at the trough of the recession a year ago and 450, 000 lower than in May I960, despite the February rebound in construction employment. When manufacturing is included with these industries, the unrecovered job losses since the spring of 1960 total 900,000. By contrast, there has been a net gain of more than 1 million jobs in the service-producing sector, half of which has been in State and local government employment, and the remainder in the service and finance industries. Factory Hours and Earnings The factory workweek increased by 0. 3 hour to 40. 0 hours in February, instead of showing its usual seasonal decline. The gain this month followed 2 months of decline on a seasonally adjusted basis (with unusually bad weather a factor in January). The February workweek of 40 hours was 1 hour longer than a year ago and 0. 2 hour longer than 2 years ago. Overtime averaged 2. 5 hours this February, compared with 1.9 a year ago and 2. 6 in February I960. Average weekly earnings of factory production workers were approximately unchanged over the month at $95. 20 in February, and $5. 89 higher than a year ago. Hourly earnings, at $2. 38, were 9 cents, or 4 percent, higher than in February 1961.

Characteristics of the Unemployed Duration of Unemployment, Virtually all of the improvement in unemployment over the month occurred among those jobless less than 5 weeks. This total went down by nearly 500, 000 to 1. 5 million in February; normal seasonal expectations are for a drop of only 250, 000. Short-term unemployment was also half a million lower than a year ago, and almost down to the level of February I960. The short-term unemployed constituted about 40 percent of the total jobless last month (after allowance for seasonal variation), compared with 50 percent before the downturn in 1960. On the other hand, long-term unemployment (15 weeks or longer) has moved up to about 32 percent of total unemployment from only 25 percent prior to the recession. Over the month, long-term unemployment rose by 200,000 to 1.4 million in February, about the usual increase for this time of year. The number of long-term jobless was 200, 000 below its year-ago level, with all of that decline among those unemployed 15 to 26 weeks. The number of persons out of work for more than half a year (700, 000) was unchanged from February 1961. The trend in very long-term unemployment during 1961-62 has been similar to that recorded during the 1958-59 recovery. In both cycles, the number unemployed half a year or longer reached a peak of about 1 million some 4 months after the trough in economic activity. It declined by about 250, 000 over the next 8 months but in both years (1962 and 1959) remained substantially above prerecession levels even after a full 12 months of economic recovery. Age and Sex. The recovery in unemployment during the past year has been widespread throughout the labor force. Among men, the rate of unemployment h.3,s come down since February 1961 in every age group; among women, it has dropped in every group except those over 65. Adult men 20 years of age and over, who experienced sharp increases in unemployment on the way into the downswing, have shown a substantial recovery. There were 2. 5 million jobless adult men in February 1962, compared with 3. 4 million a year ago and 2. 3 million 2 years ago. On a seasonally adjusted basis, the unemployment rate for these workers has been coming down since last August, when it was still 6 percent, close to its recession high. In February 1962 their rate was 4. 5 percent, down from 4. 7 percent in January and 5. 9 percent a year ago. (See chart). Insured Unemployment State insured unemployment, which usually shows a small rise between January and February, moved down by 100, 000 over the period to 2, 380, 000. A seasonal pickup in apparel plants and scattered recalls in durable goods, including metals and machinery, exerted a downward influence on the figures. Preliminary data indicate that the number of persons exhausting their State benefit rights dropped from 180, 000 in January to an estimated 155, 000 in February. 633073 O - 6 2 - 2 ix RATES OF INSURED UNEMPLOYMENT^ FEBRUARY 1962 Not Seasonally Adjusted HAWAII 4.3 PUERTO RICO 5.8 9% 8 OVER 6-8.9% 4-5.9% | |UNDER 2% BASED ON AVERAGE COVERED EMPLOYMENT 12 MONTHS ENDING JUNE 1961 1 Insured jobless under State unemployment insurance programs, week ending Feb. 17, excludes workers who have exhausted their benefit rights, new workers, and person* from jobs not covered by State unemployment insurance programs.

This compared with 341, 000 in January. Insured joblessness was down in 34 States over the month. The recall of apparel workers for work on spring styles was primarily responsible for the largest decline--35, 000 in New York--and was an important factor in the decreases of 20,000 in'Pennsylvania and 14,000 in New Jersey. These three States, however, indicated somewhat larger numbers of unemployed construction workers. Cutbacks in the construction, food processing, trade, and automobile industries, contributed to the only sizable rise in insured joblessness—35, 000 in California, Temporary layoffs in automobile plants accounted for a rise of 10,000 in Michigan and a small increase in Indiana. The rate of insured unemployment (not seasonally adjusted) was 5. 9 percent in February, compared with 6. 2 percent in January and 8.4 percent a year ago. The rates in four States this January were 9 percent or above--Ala ska (17.4), North Dakota ( l l . 5), Montana (9.7), and Arkansas (9.0). Among the large industrial States, California and Pennsylvania had rates well above the national average (7.4 and 7.5 percent, respectively), while Illinois, Indiana, and Texas reported rates below 5 percent. Full- and Part-time Employment The number of nonfarm workers on full-time schedules, at 49. 7 million in February, was unchanged over the month. Full-time employment has risen by 1.4 million since the recession trough a year ago. In the 1958 recession, the cuts in full time were much deeper, but the recovery was also stronger; in both 1959 and 1962, after a full year of recovery, full-time employment was slightly above prerecession levels (seasonally adjusted). The number on part time for economic reasons, which had been declining since last August (seasonally adjusted), increased slightly over the month. However, at 2. 2 million, or 3 percent of the civilian labor force, this group was nearly a million below a year ago and down to prerecession levels. The most notable gain in full-time employment over the year occurred among semiskilled workers in durable goods manufacturing industries. These are the workers who experienced the heaviest cutbacks in hours and layoffs during the downswing in I960 and early 1961.

Two groups averaging about one-quarter million workers which were formerly classified as employed (with a job but not at work)—those on temporary layoff and those waiting to start new wage and salary jobs within 30 days—were assigned to different classifications, mostly to the unemployed. Data by sex, shown in table A-2, were adjusted for the years 1948-56. 2Not available. 3 Beginning 1953, labor force and employment figures are not strictly comparable with previous years as a result of the introduction of material from the 1950 Census into the estimating procedure. Population levels were raised by about 600,000; labor force, total employment, and agricultural employment by about 350,000, primarily affecting the figures for total and males. Other categories were relatively unaffected. •Data include Alaska and Hawaii beginning 1960 and are therefore not strictly comparable with previous years. This inclusion has resulted in an increase of about half a million in the noninstitutional population 14 years of age and over, and about 300,000 in the labor for.ce, four-fifths of this in nonagricultural employment. The levels of other labor force categories were not appreciably changed.

Use order blank on page 9-E. INTRODUCTION 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. The statistics in this periodical are compiled from two major sources: (l) household interviews and (2) payroll reports from employers. Data based on household interviews are obtained from a sample survey of the population. The survey is conducted each month by the Bureau of the Census for the Bureau of Labor Statistics and provides a comprehensive measure of the labor force, i.e., the total number of persons 14 years of age and over who are employed or unemployed. It also provides data on their personal and economic characteristics such as age, sex, color, marital status, occupations, hours of work, and duration of unemployment. The information is collected by trained interviewers from a sample of about 35VOOO households in 333 areas throughout the country and is based on the activity or status reported for the calendar week ending nearest the 15th of the month. 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. Data based on establishment payroll records are compiled each month from mail questionnaires by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, in cooperation with State agencies. The payroll survey provides detailed industry information on nonagricultural wage and salary employment, average weekly hours, average hourly and weekly earnings, and labor turnover for the Nation, States, and metropolitan areas. Comparability of the household interview data with other series The figures are based on payroll reports from a sample of 180,000 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 ending nearest the 15th of the month. Relation between the household and payroll series The household and payroll data supplement one another, each providing significant types of information that the other cannot suitably supply. Population characteristics, for example, are readily obtained only from the household survey whereas detailed industrial classifications can be reliably derived only from establishment reports. Data from these two sources differ from each other because of differences in definition and coverage, sources of information, methods of collection, and estimating procedures. Sampling variability and response errors are additional reasons for discrepancies. The factors which have a differential effect on levels and trends of the two series are described below: Bnployment insurance data. The unemployed total from the household survey includes all persons who did not work atfl-iiduring 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 Bnployment Security of the Department of Labor, exclude persons who have exhausted their benefit rights, new workers who have not earned rights to unemployment insurance, and persons losing jobs not covered by unemployment insurance systems (agriculture, State and local government, domestic service, self-employed, unpaid family work, nonprofit organizations, and firms below a minimum size). In addition, the qualifications for drawing unemployment compensation differ from the definition of unemployment used in the household survey. For example, persons with a job but not at work and persons working only a few hours during the week are sometimes eligible for unemployment compensation, but are classified as employed rather than unemployed in the household survey. Agricultural employment estimates of the Department of Agriculture. The principal differences in coverage are the inclusion of persons under lk in the Agricultural Marketing Service (AMS) series and the treatment of dual jobholders who are counted more than once if they worked on more than one farm during the reporting period. There are also wide 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. Coverage. The household survey definition of employment comprises wage and salary workers (including domestics and other private household workers), self-employed persons, and unpaid workers who worked 15 hours or more during the survey week £n 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. .tiple jobholding. The household approach Multiple provides information on1 the 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 Unpaid absences from jobs. The household survey includes among the employed all persons who had jobs but were not at work during the survey week--that is, were not working or looking for work but had jobs from which they were temporarily absent because of illness, bad weather, vacation, labor-management dispute, or because they were taking time off for various other reasons, whether or not they were paid by their employers for the time off. In the figures based on payroll reports, persons on paid sick leave, paid vacation, or paid holiday are included, but not those on leave without pay for the entire payroll period. 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 1-E its censuses or annual sample surveys of manufacturing establishments and. the censuses of business establishments. The major reason for lack of comparability is different treatment of business units considered parts of an establishment, such as 'central administrative offices and auxiliary units, and in the industrial classification of establishments due to different reporting patterns by multiunit companies. There are also differences in the scope of the industries covered, e.g., the Census of Business excludes professional services, transportation companies, and financial establishments, while these are included in BLS statistics. Each employed person is counted only once. Those who held more than one job are counted in the job at which they worked the greatest number of hours during the survey week. Included in the total are employed citizens of foreign countries, temporarily in the United States, who are not living on the premises of an Embassy (e.g., Mexican migratory farm workers). Excluded are persons whose only activity consisted of work around the house (such as own home housework, and painting or repairing own home) or volunteer work for religious, charitable, and similar organizations. 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 units considered integral parts of an establishment and in industrial classification. In addition, CBP data exclude employment in nonprofit institutions, interstate railroads, and government. Employment covered by Unemployment Insurance programs. Not all nonfarm wage and salary workers are covered by the Unemployment Insurance programs. All workers in certain activities, such as nonprofit organizations and interstate railroads, are excluded. In addition, small firms in covered industries are also excluded in 32 States. In general, these are establishments with less than four employees. LABOR FORCE DATA COLLECTION AND COVERAGE Statistics on the employment status of the population, the personal, occupational, and other economic characteristics of employed and unemployed persons, and related labor force data are compiled for the BLS by the Bureau of the Census in its Current Population Survey (CPS). (A detailed description of this survey appears in Concepts and Methods Used in the Current Employment and Unemployment Statistics Prepared by the Bureau of the Census, U.S. Bureau of the Census, Current Population Reports, Series B-23, No. 5» This report is available from BLS on request.) These monthly surveys of the population are conducted with a scientifically selected sample designed to represent the civilian noninstitutional population 1^ years and over. Respondents are interviewed to obtain information about the employment status of each member of the household 1^ years of age and over. The inquiry relates to activity or status during the calendar week, Sunday through Saturday, ending nearest the 15th 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 Ik 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 sample for CPS is spread over 333 areas comprising 6^1 counties and independent cities, with coverage in 50 States and the District of Columbia. At present, completed interviews are obtained each month from about 35*000 households. There are about 1,500 additional sample households from which information should be collected but is not because the occupants are not found at home after repeated calls, are temporarily absent, or are unavailable for other reasons. This represents a noninterview rate for the survey of about k percent. Part of the sample is changed each month. The rotation plan provides for approximately three-fourths of the sample to be common from one month to the next, and one-half to be common with the same month a year ago. Rate represents the number unemployed The UnempL as a percent of the civilian labor force, i.e., the sum of the employed and unemployed. This measure can also be computed for groups within the labor force classified by sex, age, marital status, color, etc. When applied to industry and occupation groups, the labor force base for the unemployment rate also represents the sum of the employed and the unemployed, the latter classified according to industry and occupation of their latest full-time civilian job. Duration of Unemployment represents the length of time (through the current survey week) during which persons classified as unemployed had been continuously looking for work or would have been looking for work except for temporary illness, or belief that no work was available in their line of work or in the community. For persons on layoff, duration of unemployment represents the number of full weeks since the termination of their most recent employment. Average duration is an arithmetic mean computed from a distribution by single weeks of unemployment. The Civilian Labor Force comprises the total of all civilians classified as employed or unemployed in accordance with the criteria described above. The "total labor force" also includes members of the Armed Forces stationed either in the United States or abroad. Mot in Labor Force includes all civilians 1^ years and over who are not classified as employed or unemployed. These persons are further classified as "engaged in own home housework, " "in school," "unable to work" because of long-term physical or mental illness, and "other." The "other" group includes for the most part retired persons, those reported as too old to work, the voluntarily idle, and seasonal workers for whom the survey week fell in an "off" season and who were not reported as unemployed. Persons doing only incidental unpaid family work (less than 15 hours) are also classified as not in the labor force. Occupation, Industry^ and Class of Worker apply to the job held in the survey week. Persons with two or more jobs are classified in the job at which they worked the greatest number of hours during the survey week. The occupation and industry groups used in data derived from the CPS household interviews are defined as in the 1950 Census of Population. Information on the detailed categories included in these groups is available upon request. CONCEPTS Employed Persons comprise (a) all those who during the survey week did any work at all either as paid employees, or in their own business or profession, or on their own farm, or who worked 15 hours or more as unpaid workers on a farm or in a business operated by a member of the family, and (b) all those who were not working or looking for work but who had jobs or businesses from which they were temporarily absent because of illness, bad weather, vacation, or labor-management dispute, or because they were taking time off for various other reasons, whether or not they were paid by their employers for the time off. Unemployed Persons comprise all persons who did not work at all during the survey week and were looking for work, regardless of whether or not they were eligible for unemployment insurance. Also included as unemployed are those who did not work at all and (a) were waiting to be called back to a job from which they had been laid off; or (b) were waiting to report to a new wage or salary job within 30 days (and were not in school during the survey week); or (c) would have been looking for work except that they were temporarily ill or believed no work was available in their line of work or in the community. Persons in this latter category will usually be residents of a community in which there are only a few dominant industries which were shut down during the survey week. Mot included in this category are persons who say they were not looking for work because they were too old, too young, or handicapped in any way. The industrial classification system used in the Census of Population and the Current Population Survey differs somewhat from that used by the BLS in its reports on employment, by industry. Employment levels by industry from the household survey, although useful for many analytical purposes, are not published in order to avoid public misunderstanding since they differ from the payroll series because of differences in classification, sampling variability, and other reasons. The industry figures from the household survey are used as a base for published distributions on hours of work, unemployment rates, and other 2-E characteristics of industry groups such as age, sex, occupation. and mortality, and migration between the United States and other countries• 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 payin 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. Hours of Work statistics relate to the actual number of hours worked during the survey week. For example, a person who normally works kO hours a week but who was off on the Veterans Day holiday would be reported as working 32 hours even •r though he was paid for the holiday. 3. Composite estimate procedure. In deriving statistics for a given month, a composite estimating procedure is used which takes account of net changes from the previous month for continuing parts of the sample (75 percent) as well as the sample results for the current month. This procedure reduces the sampling variability especially of month-to-month changes but also of the levels for most items. Reliability of the Estimates Since the estimates are based on a sample, they may differ from the figures that would have been obtained if it were possible to take a complete census using the same schedules and procedures. The standard error is a measure of sampling variability, that is, the variations that might occur by chance because only a sample of the population is surveyed. The chances are about two out of three 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. 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. Bsrsons who worked 35 hours or more in the survey week are designated as working "full time"; persons who worked between 1 and 3^ hours are designated as working "part time." Ikrt-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. Table A shows the average standard error for the major employment status categories, by sex, computed from data for 12 recent 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. Table A. Average standard error of major employment status categories (in thousands) ESTIMATING METHODS Average standard error o f — The estimating procedure is essentially one of using sample results to obtain percentages of the population in a given category. The published estimates are then obtained by multiplying these percentage distributions by independent estimates of the population. Hie principal steps involved are shown below. Under the estimation methods used in the CPS, all of the results for a given month become available simultaneously and are based on returns from the entire panel of respondents. There are no subsequent adjustments to Independent benchmark data on labor force, employment, or unemployment. Therefore, revisions of the historical data are not an inherent feature of this statistical program. Employment status and sex Monthly level Month-tomonth change (consecutive months only) BOTH SEXES Labor force and total employment. Agriculture Nonagricultural employment....

The weights for all interviewed households are adjusted to the extent needed to account for occupied sample households for which no information was obtained because of absence, impassable roads, refusals, or unavailability for other reasons. This adjustment is made separately by groups of sample areas and, within these, for six groups—color (white and nonwhite) within the three residence categories (urban, rural nonfarm, and rural farm). The proportion of sample households not interviewed varies from 3 to 5 percent depending on weather, vacations, etc. 2. Batio 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: FEMALE Labor force and total employment Agriculture Nonagricultural employment Unemployment , 75 55 180 120 65 65 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. a. First-stage ratio estimate. This is the procedure in which the sample proportions are weighted by the known 1950 Census data on the color-residence distribution of the population. This step takes into account the differences existing at the time of the 1950 Census between the colorresidence 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 (1950) to take account of subsequent aging of the population, Labor force and total employment. Agriculture Nbnagricultural employment Unemployment 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 last year, the standard errors of level shown in table B are acceptable approximations. 3-E Table B.

Nonwhite 5 Federal-State Cooperation 10 Ik 21 30 ko 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, ensures maximum geographic comparability of estimates. 50 State agencies mail the forms to the establishments and examine the returns for consistency, accuracy, and completeness. The States use the information to prepare State and area series and then send the data to the BLS for use in preparing the national series. The BLS and the Bureau of Employment Security Jointly finance the current employment statistics program in 44 States, the turnover program in 42 States. Illustration: Assume that the tables showed the total number of persons working a specific number of hours, as 15,000,000, an increase of 500,000 over the previous month. Linear interpolation in the first column of table B shows that the standard error of 15,000,000 is about 160,000. Consequently, the chances are about 68 out of 100 that the figure which would have been obtained from a complete count of the number of persons working the given number of hours would have differed by less than 160,000 from the sample estimate. Using the 160,000 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 135,000. Table C. Shuttle Schedules The Form BLS 790 is used to collect employment, payroll, and man-hours data, and Form DL 1219 or BLS 1219 for labor turnover data. 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. Standard error of estimates of month-to-month change (In thousands) Standard error of monthly level 10.. 2550.. 100. 150. 200. 250. 300. 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 manhours of production and related workers or nonsupervisory workers for the pay period ending nearest the 15th of each 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.

This information is collected each year on an industry class supplement to the monthly 790 or 1219 report. In the case of an establishment making more than one product or engaging in more than one activity, the entire employment of the establishment is included under the industry indicated by the most important product or activity. The reliability of an estimated percentage, computed by using sample data for both numerator and denominator depends upon both the size of the percentage and the size of the total upon which the percentage is based. Where the numerator is a subclass of the denominator, estimated percentages are relatively more reliable than the corresponding absolute estimates of the numerator of the percentage, particularly if the percentage is large (50 percent or greater). Table D shows the standard errors for percentages derived from the survey. Linear interpolation may be used for percentages and base figures not shown in table D.

Since many of the published industry series represent combinations of SIC industries, the BLS has prepared a Guide to Employment Statistics of BLS, 1961 which specifies the SIC code or codes covered by each industry title listed in Employment and Earnings. In addition, the Guide provides industry definitions and lists the beginning date of each series.

State and area series were converted to the 1957 SIC beginning in January 1959 (with an overlap for 1958) and national industry statistics were converted in the latter part of 1961 (with an overlap from 1958 to the month of conversion). Consequently, back issues of Employment and Earnings will not provide earlier data on a comparable basis. However, for many industries, both BLS and the cooperating State agencies have constructed series for years prior to 1958 which are comparable with data starting with 1958 and based on the 1957 SIC. National data for earlier periods comparable with those currently published are available in Employment and Earnings Statistics for the .2 U-E COVERAGE 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. Nbt 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. Employment^ Hours, and Earnings Benchmark Adjustments Reports on employment and, for most industries, payroll and man-hours are collected monthly from sample establishments in nonagricultural industries. The table below 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. Employment estimates are periodically compared with complete counts of employment in the various industries defined as nonagricultural, and appropriate adjustments made as indicated by the total counts or- "benchmarks." The industry employment estimates are currently projected from March 1959 benchmarks. After allowing for the effect of shifts in products or activities resulting from conversion to the 1957 Standard Industrial Classification, and the changes in level resulting from improved benchmark sources for employment not covered by the social insurance systems, meaningful quantitative comparisons can be made between estimates for March 1959 projected from the last previous benchmarks (1957) and the actual March 1959 benchmark levels. This comparison reveals a difference of 0.6 percent for total nonagricultural employment, practically identical with the extent of the adjustment in March 1957, the last benchmark adjustment prior to the shift in classification systems. The differences were less than 1.0 percent for four of the eight major industry divisions; under 2 percent for two other divisions; and 3.8 and k.9 percent for the remaining two divisions.

For Federal Government establishments, current data generally refer to persons who received pay for the last day of 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 • Bsrsons on an establishment payroll who are on paid sick leave (when pay is received directly from the firm), on One significant cause of differences between benchmark and estimate is the change in industrial classification of individual establishments, which is usually not reflected in BLS estimates until the data are adjusted to new benchmarks. Other causes are sampling and response errors. The basic sources of benchmark information are the quarterly tabulations of employment data, by industry, compiled by State agencies from reports of establishments covered under State unemployment insurance laws. These tabulations are prepared under Bureau of Employment Security direction. Supplementary tabulations prepared by the Bureau of Old-Age and Survivors Insurance are used for the group of establishments exempt from State unemployment insurance laws because of their small size. Benchmarks for industries wholly or partly excluded from the unemployment insurance laws are derived from a variety of other sources. Among improvements introduced in 1961, when the industry statistics were converted to the 1957 Standard Industrial Classification Manual, was the development of new and better sources of benchmark data for employment either outside the social insurance system or covered by it only on a voluntary basis. The BLS estimates relating to the benchmark month are compared with the new benchmark levels, industry by industry. Where revisions are necessary, the monthly series of estimates are adjusted between the new benchmark and the preceding one. 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. Industry Hours and Earnings Hours and earnings data are derived from reports of payrolls and man-hours for production and related workers or nonsupervisory employees. These terms are defined below. When the pay period reported is longer than 1 week, the figures are reduced to a weekly basis. Production and Related Workers include working foremen and all nonsupervisory workers (including leadmen and trainees) engaged in fabricating, processing, assembling, inspection, receiving, storage, handling, packing, warehousing, shipping, maintenance, repair, janitorial and watchman services, product development, auxiliary production for plant's own use (e.g., power plant), and recordkeeping and other services closely associated with the above production operations. Nbnsuperviaory 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 ending nearest the 15th 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. 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 Conmission and relate to ftTT employees who received pay during the month, except executives, officials, and staff assistants (ICC group I). Gross average hourly earnings are computed by dividing total compensation by total hours paid for. Average weekly hours are obtained by dividing the total number of hours paid for, reduced to a weekly basis, by the number of employees, as defined above. Gross average weekly earnings are derived by multiplying average weekly hours by average hourly earnings. Man-Hours cover man-hours worked or paid for, during the pay period ending nearest the 15th of the month, for production, construction, and nonsupervisory workers. The man-hours include hours paid for holidays and vacations, and for sick leave when pay is received directly from the firm. Spendable Average Weekly Earnings Spendable average weekly earnings in current dollars are obtained by deducting estimated Federal social security and income taxes from gross weekly earnings. The amount of income tax liability depends on the number of dependents supported by the worker, as well as on the level of his gross income. To reflect these variables, spendable earnings are computed for a worker with no dependents, and a worker with three dependents. The computations are based on the gross average weekly earnings for all production or nonsupervisory workers in the industry division without regard to marital status, family composition, or total family income. Overtime Hours cover premium overtime hours of production and related workers during the pay period ending nearest the 15th 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 ' "Real" earnings are computed by dividing the current Consumer Price Index into the earnings averages for the current month. The resulting level of earnings expressed in 1957-59 dollars is thus adjusted for changes in purchasing power since the base period. Average hourly earnings for manufacturing and nonmanufacturing industries are on a "gross" basis, reflecting dot 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. Employment shifts between relatively high-paid and low-paid work and changes in workers' earnings in individual establishments also affect the general earnings averages. Averages for groups and divisions further reflect changes in average hourly earnings for individual industries. Average Hourly Earnings Excluding Overtime Average hourly earnings excluding premium overtime pay are computed by dividing the total production-worker payroll for the industry group by the sum of total production-worker manhours and one-half of total overtime man-hours. Irior 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. 537-5to). Both methods eliminate only the earnings due to overtime paid for at one and one-half 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. Averages of hourly earnings differ from wage rates. Earnings are the actual return to the worker for a stated period of time, while rates are the amounts stipulated for a given unit of work or time. The earnings series, however, does not measure the level of total labor costs on the part of the employer since the following are excluded: Irregular bonuses, retroactive items, payments of various welfare benefits, payroll taxes paid by employers, and earnings for those employees not covered under the production-worker or nonsupervisory-employee definitions. Indexes of Aggregate Weekly Bayrolls and Man-Hours 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. The indexes of aggregate weekly payrolls and man-hours 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. Average Weekly Hours Labor Turnover 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. Labor -jiuraover is the gross movement of wage and salary workers into and out of employment 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. 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-to-month; for example, premiums may be paid for hours in excess of the straight-time workday although less than a full week is worked. Diverse trends at the 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. 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 6-E employment roll which are not classified as new hires including transfers from another establishment of the company. STATISTICS FOR STATES A N D 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, as defined in the Annual Supplement Issue of Employment and Earnings. Additional industry detail may be obtained from the State agencies listed on the inside back cover of each issue. These statistics are based on the same establishment reports used by BLS for preparing national estimates. For employment, the sum of the State figures may differ slightly from the equivalent official U.S. totals on a national basis, because some States have more recent benchmarks than others and because of the effects of differing industrial and geographic stratification. Separations are terminations of employment during the calendar month and are classified according to cause: Quits, layoffs, and other separations, as defined below. Quits are terminations of employment initiated by employees, failure to report after being hired, and unauthorized absences, if on the last day of the month the person has been absent more than 7 consecutive calendar days. Layoffs are suspensions without pay lasting or expected to last more than 7 consecutive calendar days, initiated by the employer without prejudice to the worker. Other separations, which are not published separately but are included in total separations, are terminations of employment because of discharge, permanent disability, death, retirement, transfers to another establishment of the company, and entrance into the Armed Forces 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 following reasons: (l) Accessions and separations are computed for the entire calendar month; the employment reports refer to the pay period ending nearest the 15th 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 Several major technical improvements were achieved in 196l, when the industry statistics were converted to the 1957 Standard Industrial Classification Manual. The benchmark tabulations obtained from State unemployment insurance agencies (see section on benchmark adjustments), which formerly gave employment totals by industry, were tabulated to give separate totals by size of establishment within industries for the first quarter of each year beginning with 1959* Intensive analysis revealed that significant improvements could be made for many of the hours and earnings series if the employment estimates for certain industries were stratified by size of establishment and/or "by region, and the stratified production- or nonsupervisoryworker data were used in weighting the hours and earnings into broader industry groupings. Accordingly, the basic estimating cell for an employment, hours, or earnings series, as the term is used in the summary of computational methods on page 8-E, may be an industry size and/or regional stratum or it may be an entire industry or combination of industries. Further analysis will be made, as resources permit, to determine whether stratification will improve the estimates of labor turnover rates. More advanced automatic electronic data-processing equipment has also contributed to improving the program. The advanced equipment, with its greater capacity, has made feasible the increased number of computations required by the introduction of size cells, and facilitates closer quality control of data input and output. SEASONAL ADJUSTMENT Many economic statistics reflect a regularly recurring seasonal movement which pan be measured 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. 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 a new 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 and illustration of the basic method was published in the August i960 Monthly Labor Review. The seasonally adjusted series on weekly hours and labor turnover rates for industry groupings are computed by applying factors directly to the corresponding unadjusted series, but seasonally adjusted employment totals for all employees and production workers by industry divisions are obtained by summing the seasonally adjusted data which are published for component industries. The factors currently in use are available upon request. In the case of unemployment, data for four age-sex groups (male and female unemployed workers under age 20, and age 20 and over) are separately adjusted for seasonal variation and are then added to give a seasonally adjusted total unemployment figure. The seasonally adjusted rate of unemployment is derived by dividing the seasonally adjusted figure for total unemployment (the sum of the four seasonally adjusted age-sex components) by the figure for the seasonally adjusted civilian labor force. Seasonal adjustment factors for major components of the labor force to be applied to data for 1961 and later are provided in the table below, since seasonally adjusted labor force series, except for the unemployment rates, are not published regularly in Employmentnand Earnings. 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. Data through December 1961 were used in deriving the current factors applicable to 1961-62. Revisions will be made annually as each additional year's data become available. Seasonal adjustment factors for the labor force and major components, to be used for the period 1961-62 The general procedures used for estimating industry employment, hours, earnings, and labor turnover statistics are described in the table on page 8-E. Details are given in the technical notes on Measurement of Employment, Hours, and Earnings in Nonagricultural Industries and Measurement of Labor Turnover, which are available upon request. Reliability of Preliminary Estimates For the most recent months, national estimates of employment, hours, and earnings are preliminary, and so footnoted in the tables. These particular figures are based on less than the full sample and consequently subject to revision when all of the reports in the sample have beer, received. Studies of these revisions in past data indicate that they have been relatively small for employment and even smaller for hours and earnings. Because of the change in the industrial classification system and in the estimating methods described above, it will not be possible to determine the magnitude of the error in preliminary estimates published for I96I and subsequent periods, until sufficient experience has been accumulated. ian labor force Total culture Nonagricultural indus- Age to tries Jan.... 97.6 Feb 97-9 Mar 98.5 Apr.... 99.0 May.... 100.1 June... 103.2 96.7 81.0 96.9 81.7 97-6 86.0 99.0 94.4 100.4 104. 1 102.7 121. 2 98.3 98.4 98.8 99.4 100.0 100.8 July...
