SUMMARY EMPLOYMENT AND UNEMPLOYMENT DEVELOPMENTS, FEBRUARY 1968 Employment advanced in February while the unemployment rate rose to 3.7 percent. In January, employment gains were held down by bad weather, but total unemployment dropped more than seasonally because of a reduction in teenage unemployment. Although a substantial expansion in employment has occurred over the past year, the unemployment situation this winter is essentially unchanged from last winter. The pace of the employment increase has been just rapid enough to absorb the number of additional people entering the labor force and seeking employment, but not rapid enough to drop unemployment below the levels of a year ago. Both the labor force and employment rose by 1.5 million between last winter and this winter (December-February averages), with men and women sharing about equally in the rise. Unemployment averaged 3.0 million in each period and there were no major improvements for any of the major age-sex-color groups. Unemployment rates were also unchanged over this period. Employment Developments Employment rose substantially in February (550,000 seasonally adjusted) after a weak performance in January. All of the major age-sex groups had significant employment increases between January and February. The largest increases were r e corded by women and teenagers. Nonfarm payroll employment rose to 67O 7 million (seasonally adjusted). The gain was broadly based, with increases in both the g o o d s - p r o d u c i n g and service-producing industries. Nearly half of the increase in nonfarm payroll employment was centered in contract construction, where employment increased by 250,000 (seasonally adjusted), reaching a record high of 3.5 million. The February increase was, in part, the result of a return of workers to construction jobs after a period of bad weather in January. Except for January, employment in contract construction has picked up substantially since October, after showing little growth during most of 1967. In manufacturing, employment rose by 65,000 (seasonally adjusted) in February, despite a 35,000 increase in the number of workers off payrolls because of strikes. At 19.6 million (seasonally adjusted), manufacturing employment edged above the previous record high established in January 1967.

Since August, however, it has risen by 250,000. The manufacturing industries showing large gains in February were transportation equipment (19,000), electrical machinery industries (13,000), apparel (13,000), and textiles (10,000). The service-producing industries continued to register sizable job gains in February. The most significant increases (seasonally adjusted) were in trade (100,000), State and local government (55,000), and miscellaneous service industries (45,000). Hours and Earnings The workweek (seasonally adjusted) for factory production workers rose by 0.5 hour in February to 40.7 hours, after declining by the same amount a month earlier. The increase included 0.1 hour of additional overtime; overtime averaged 3.6 hours in February. Most of the increase in the factory workweek took place in the nondurables sector. Average hourly earnings for rank and file workers rose by 1 cent over the month to $2.76. Declines in hourly earnings in mining and contract construction were more than offset by increases in trade and finance. Compared with February 1967, hourly earnings were up 14 cents (or 5.3 percent). Weekly earnings averaged $104.33 in February--$1.20 more than in January and $5.03 more than a year ago (5.1 percent). Unemployment Unemployment in February totaled 3.3 million, the same as in December, after allowance for seasonal changes. The seasonally adjusted unemployment rate, after declining to 3.5 percent in January, moved up to 3.7 percent, the same as December 1967 and a year ago. The rise was primarily due to an increase in teenage jobseekers, with three-fourths of these additional teenagers looking for part-time jobs. Teenagers had also accounted for the bulk of the unemployment decline in January. At 12.6 percent (seasonally adjusted), the February teenage jobless rate was virtually the same as in December 1967 and a year ago. February unemployment rates for adult men (2.3 percent), adult women (4.0 percent), married men (1.7 percent), full-time workers (3.4 percent), nonwhite workers (7.2 percent), and blue-collar workers (4.3 percent) were nearly identical to the rates of February 1967. With the exception of a sharp but shortlived rise last fall, the national unemployment rate has exhibited stability since early 1966, averaging about 3O8 percent. Unemployment rates for adult men, married men, and full-time workers have been comparatively stable over the entire period, whereas the rates for women and teenagers have fluctuated in response to changing economic conditions and work preferences. State i n s u r e d unemployment declined more than seasonally in mid-February, the rate falling from 2.4 to 2O3 percent,. Chart 1.

As a result, manufacturing employment recorded its smallest gain since 1963. The 1967 economic slowdown had a relatively greater impact on manufacturing employees than on any other group of workers.jy Manufacturing jobs rose by only 150,000 in 1967, compared to 1.1 million in 1966 and an average annual increase of nearly 600,000 in the 1962-66 period. In contrast, 1967 job gains in the service producing industries exceeded their average increase over the last 4 years. Anatomy of a Job Gain Not only was the 1967 job gain in manufacturing smaller than that registered in previous years of the expansion, but it was also considerably different in nature. The impact of the economic pause on the individual industries was unequal, and,as outlined below, the nature of the job gain was vastly different from that in previous years. The inventory-sales imbalance which occurred in the first-half of the year struck hardest in the manufacturing sector as manufacturers cut both employment and hours in order to adjust their inventory positions. In addition, several major work stoppages, a leveling off in capital investment, weaker demand for automobiles, and a slower increase in defense spending combined to exert an additional drag on indus- (1) The increase in manufacturing jobs occurred among nonproductionworkers, unlike the 1962-66 period when job gains were registered for both production and nonproduction work- Table 1.

Production jobs in manufacturing actually declined by 50,000 in 1967. (2) The durable goods industries accounted for all of the decline in production jobs in 1967. Between 1962 and 1966 they accounted for the majority of new jobs in the manufacturing sector. (3) Unlike previous years of the present expansion, the proportion as well as the number of workers obtaining fulltime jobs in manufacturing was small. Furthermore, after 5 years of dec line, the number of those working less than 35 hours a week rose considerably over the year. 2/ clay-recorded job losses totaling nearly 40,000o - - The ordnance and instruments industries had a combined job increase of roughly 60,000. Nondurable s -- The chemical and printing industries accounted for most of the job growth (75,000) in the nondurable sector,, - - Small job gains in the food, paper, petroleum, and rubber industries were mostly offset by job losses in the textile, apparel, and leather industries. (4) Total blue-collar employment, which paralleled the sharp rise in production worker employment in manufacturing up to 1966, showed little growth in 1967. The growth that did occur was confined to the skilled occupations, and occurred mainly in the nonmanufacturing industries. In the durable goods industries, industrial production, employment, and hours fell during the first half of the year, primarily as a result of the inventory-sales imbalance in the metal-working and metal-using industries and the slowdown in the construction industry. Durable goods production was further affected adversely in the second half of the year by the industrial disputes in the automobile industry. By December, output in the durable goods sector was only 0.2 percent greater than in December 1966. (5) Women accounted for most of the employment gain in 1967, although men had been the main contributor in recent years. This reflects the continued rise in nonproduction jobs (clerical and other office-type jobs) in manufacturing. Durable and Nondurable Goods Industries. Manufacturing jobs increased by 150,000 in 1967 and totaled 19.3 million. Unlike previous years of the expansion, most of the new jobs were created in the nondurable industries (80,000) rather than in the durable industries (70,000). The pattern of the 1967 job changes in these sectors of manufacturing can be summarized as follows: In the nondurable goods industries, on the other hand, industrial output edged down gradually during the first half of the year but rose smoothly during the second half. The inventory-sales imbalance had a less severe effect upon nondurable goods industries compared to the durable goods industries. Likewise, the auto strikes in the second half had a greater effect on industries in the durable goods sector than in nondurable s. Industrial production in the nondurables rose 2.7 percent between December 1966 and 1967. Durables - - Employment in the metal-working and metal-using i n d u s t r i e s rose only 50,000, compared with a 700,000-gain in 1966. - - The construction-oriented industriesfurniture, lumber and stone, glass, and Production vs. Nonproduction Jobs. Although the total number of jobs in manufacturing advanced by 150,000 in 1967,production jobs declined by 50,000 over the year and nonproduction jobs rose by 200,000. The decline in production jobs took place entirely within the durable goods industries as the primary metals, electrical equipment, lumber, and stone, glass and clay industries recorded the heaviest losses. The nondurable goods industries registered a small Zj Some of this increase may have been the result of improvements in the methods of measuring employment, hours worked, and unemployment adopted in January 1967. 12 in the number of manufacturing workers confined to part-time work due to economic reasons (slack work, inability to find fulltime jobs, etc.). From Table 2 it can be seen that workers employed 35 hours or less due to economic reasons rose by 150,000 to slightly more than half a million, the highest level in manufacturing since the start of the present expansion. gain in production jobs in 1967. The increase in nonproduction jobs also was concentrated in the durable goods industries, specifically machinery, electrical equipment, transportation equipment, and instruments industries. The printing and chemical industries in the nondurable sector accountedfor a combined pickup of 40,000 jobs. During the course of the year, production worker employment in the durable goods and nondurable goods industries exhibited different reaction patterns. Employment of production workers in nondurable goods declined more than 60,000 in the first half of the year> but in the second half these losses were recovered. In the durable goods industries, on the other hand, the production worker job loss totaled nearly one-quarter of a million in the first half, and in the second half only about one-third of these jobs were recovered. On the whole,the economic pause in 1967 temporarily curtailed employment growth among production workers. However, employers continued to require additional workers for their clerical, administrative, and supervisory needs. Another indicator of the weaker manufacturing employment picture was the rise Occupations. The less favorable employment situation for production workers in 1967 was reflected in two other ways; first, the available jobs in manufacturing were generally for those workers having the most skills, and second, blue-collar employment in manufacturing increased by its smallest amount since the 1962-63 period. Typically, not all occupations are affected to the same degree when economic activity s l a c k e n s . In 1967, the most s k i l l e d workers--professional, managerial, clerical, s k i l l e d blue-collar workers--accounted for most of the employment gain. The demand for these workers continued strong, although not as strong as in the past few years. Employment growth among semiskilled blue-collar workers was negligible in 1967, compared with gains of nearly half a million in 1965 and 1966. Unskilled workers also found few job opportunities in manufacturing. Full-Time vs. Part-Time Employment. In recent years nearly all of the jobs created in manufacturing were full-time jobs. In 1967, however, only 70 percent of the new jobs were for full-time workers. Furthermore, it is quite possible that the relatively small number of full-time jobs created went to nonproduction workers. Table 2. Confinement to economic part-time work in 1967 was a problem unique to manufacturing workers, because nearly all of the increase in the number of economic parttime workers in 1967 was recorded in this sector.

As a result of the generally weaker demand for production workers having few skills, the resurgence in total blue-collar employment, which had paralleled the sustained expansion in manufacturing production during the past several years was halted in 1967. Joblessness. The weaker market for manufacturing wage and salary workers in 1967 resulted in a 125,000 increase in their unemployment level. The 780,000unemployed in 1967 was the highest level since 1961. Roughly 80 percent of the increase in unemployment occurred a m o n g full-time workers. Manufacturing workers accounted for most of the 100,000 increase in the level of national unemployment in 1967 (table 4). Female vs. Male Employment. Because the entire increase in manufacturing employment occurred among nonproduction workers, the relatively small manufacturing employment gain in 1967 was concentrated among women, Of the 150,000 increase in total manufacturing employment, threefourths occurred among women. In previous years of the expansion, when employers were augmenting their production work force, men accounted for most of the new Economic losses of Manufacturing Workers The unemployment rate for workers whose last job was in manufacturing averaged 3.7 percent in 1967, up from 3.2 percent in 1966. During the course of the current expansion, the jobless rate in manufacturing had fallen dramatically and by November 1966 it had reached its lowest point in nearly 15 years (2.8 percent, seasonally adjusted). By January 1967, however, unemployment in manufacturing had moved up to 3.3 percent and thereafter continued to rise, reaching 4.0 percent in the the third quarter. In the fourth quarter as manufacturing activity picked up, the jobless rate declined, averaging 3.7 percent. In addition to the small employment gain in 1967 due to the economic pause, the existing manufacturing workers on the job were The major thrust of the rise in manufacturing unemployment was concentrated in the durable goods industries, the jobless workers in manufacturing,, As they did in 1966, women entered the labor force in large numbers in 1967 (close to a million in each year). In 1966, many apparently found jobs in manufacturing, but a year later, only a small number did so. It is probable that many of these women found jobs in 1967 performing the clerical and administrative tasks accompanying the operation of the Nation's plants and factories. Table 3.

The major metal-using and metal-producing industries accounted for roughly 60 percent of the increase in manufacturing unemployment. The increase in joblessness in the nondurable goods industries was not as serious as in the durable goods industries. Their unemployment rate moved up from 3.8 percent to 4.1 percent between 1966 and 1967. industries. These developments suggestthat the task of finding a job during this period of economic adjustment was not a protracted ordeal and that there was turnover in the ranks of the unemployed. Manufacturers were more inclined to lay off women when adjusting employment to production schedules. Female workers constituted 65 percent of the total increase in manufacturing unemployment over the year. Women represented slightly more than half of the increase in the durable goods industries and all of the increase innondurables. Unemployment rates in most of the detailed durable and nondurable goods industries showed greater increases for females than males. Shorter Workweeks. Throughout the expansion of the 1960's, the factory workweek had been moving up and by 1966 had reached its highest level since World War II. In 1967 manufacturers thus were able to adjust production schedules to faltering demand by reducing hours rather than reverting to mass layoffs of production workers who were in short supply only a year previous. As a result, average weekly hours fell from 41.3 in 1966 to 40.6 in 1967, including one-half less of premium overtime hours. Although this represented the largest drop in factory hours in nearly 15 years, in 1967 the level continued to be at one of its highest points in the post-World War II period. The proportion of manufacturing workers unemployed for short terms (less than 5 weeks) and intermediate terms (5 to 14 weeks) rose over the year from 80.7 to 82.8 percent. Long-term unemployment (15 weeks and over)) on the other hand, was little changed from 1966. Most of the increase in short-term and intermediate-term unemployment occurred in the durable goods The factory workweek first began to decline in the latter part of 1966. Hours averaged 41.4 (seasonally adjusted) in September 1966 and, by the beginning of 1967, they had fallen to 41.0. By mid-year, the factory workweek was down to 40.3 hours. All of the durable and most of the nondurable goods industries had lower hours in June than in January. The primary metals, fabricated Table 5.

In the second half of the year, the factory workweek expanded moderately, risingfrom 40.4 hours in July to 40.7 in December (seasonally adjusted) with two-thirds of the increase occurring in overtime hours. Although the workweek in 1 7 of the 21 durable and nondurable goods industries increased between July and December, only a few recovered the hours lost in the first-half of 1967. Small Gains in Earnings. The cutback in hours had a considerable impact on the earnings of manufacturing production workers. Between 1962 and 1966 weekly earnings of production workers in manufacturing had increased 3.9 percent annually. Between 1966 and 1967 their earnings rose by only 2.3 percent--the smallest gain for workers in any industry group. Among the manufacturing production workers the earnings of those in the durable goods industries showed the smallest increase. In addition to the smaller than average rise, the increase infactory workers'weekly earnings in 1967 was not as large as the rise in consumer prices. As a result, the purchasing power of the average factory workers' earnings actually diminished. Inc r e a s e s in nonmanufacturing workers' earnings, on the other hand, were substantial enough to offset the continued rise in consumer prices. Most of the slowdown in the growth of manufacturing average weekly earnings oc- 31 curred during the first half of the year (average earnings actually declined in many manufacturing industries), when shorter workweeks and small gains in average hourly earnings in the durable goods industries were the major impediments to higher earnings. Earnings in the nondurable goods industries, however, rose 1.4 percent in the first half of 1967. Developments in gr os s weekly earnings in the second half of 1967 were in sharp contrast to those of the first half. Earnings for all manufacturing production workers rose 4.2 percent between June 1967 and December 1967. Whereas the durable goods industries caused the major drag on earnings in the first half of 1967, they were responsible for most of the growth in the second half. Although the workweek in the durable goods sector moved up gradually in the second half, hourly earnings advanced much more strongly (11-cent increase in the «=econd half vs. 3 cents in the first half). Durable goods manufacturers lengthened h o u r s worked rather than rehiring production workers to any great extent, thereby increasing average hourly earnings. Early 1968 At the beginning of 1968, the job situation in manufacturing in many ways resembled that of late 1966 and early 1967. Total employment was at approximately the same level as early 1967, and the rate of unemployment in the industry was about the same as a year earlier. Manufacturers were hiring and laying off workers in similar Table 6.

Investment in new plants and equipment was expected to rise (after leveling off in 1967), increasing above the high capital investment level of 1966. Consumer demand was expected to intensify in 1968 after an unusually restrained level in 1967. Together, these developments point to a more favorable employment situation for manufacturing workers in 1968. BLS EARNINGS STATISTICS FOR USE IN ESCALATION AGREEMENTS By Darrell R. Nelson* The uncertainties of future input costs are causing an increasing number of businessmen to consider the inclusion of escalation clauses in their long- and even intermediate- term procurement contracts. in compiling the data. This article explains the derivation of earnings data by the Bureau of Labor Statistics0 \J The total input costs of a product includes charges for capital, material, and labor, Capital costs are known or can be predicted fairly accurately. However, materials and labor prices are subject to considerable variation over the life of a long-term contract and are difficult to predict, accurately because the amount and rate of increase are largely beyond the control of either the buyer or the producing employer. The Bureau of Labor Statistics publishes monthly data on the average earnings of production and related workers in over 350 industries and industry groups. Coverage ranges from a single industry employing fewer than 10,000 production workers to the total of 45,000,000 rank and file workers employed in the private sector of the economy. These data are estimated from reports on employment, hours, and payrolls submitted each month by over 150,000 cooperating employers. The data are collected from individual establishments; each participating establishment is classified by industry as defined in the 1957 Standard Industrial Classification Manual (usually referred to as "SIC") as amended in 1963O The basis for the classification is the major activity of the establishment during the previous year, as determined from an annual statement of products or activity. Contracts which cover deliveries that stretch over several years mayuse current wage and price data provided by the Bureau of Labor Statistics as their escalation reference. Typically, price data are used to escalate material costs and earning data are used to escalate labor costs. The inclusion of an escalator clause can be advantageous to both parties to a contract. The seller can quote a lower more competitive base price and retain protection against an increase in his costs. The buyer, by agreeing to accept some of the risk of an increase in the seller's costs, can obtain a more favorable price than he would be able to get if the seller were forced to include all of the risk of increased costs in his price. The actual reduction in the price agreedupon will be a compromise between the dollar values placed on the escalator provision by the contracting parties. BLS DATA AVAILABLE Current statistics on hours and earnings relate only to production workers in mining and manufacturing; construction workers in contract construction; and nonsupervisory workers in trade, transportation and public utilities, finance, insurance and real estate, and services. In manufacturing and mining industries, the term production and related workers generally includes those employees who are engaged directly in processing the product of the establishment. In contract construction, the term construction workers Appropriate use of data in an escalation agreement requires that users have an understanding of the source and methods used 1_/ Price data and their use are described * Formerly of the Division of Industry Employment Statistics, Bureau of Labor Statistics. in "The Use of Price Indexes in Escalator Contracts',** Monthly Labor Review. August' 1963. Reprints are available on request. covers workers through the level of working foremen who are engaged directly in construction at the site, or working in shops or yards at jobs ordinarily performed by members of construction trades. In the remaining nonagricultural industries, the term, nonsupervisory workers includes most employees, except those in executive and managerial positions. The payroll for such workers is reported before deductions of any kind, e.g., old-age and unemployment insurance, group insurance, withholding taxes, bonds, and union dueso The payroll figure also includes pay for overtime, shift premiums, holidays, vacations, and sick leave paid directly by the firm. Total man-hours cover man-hours worked and hours paid for, holidays, vacations, and sick leave when pay is received directly from the firm. 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. sufficient data to enable the user to make his own estimates of straight-time hourly earnings by dividing the average weekly earnings figure for a specified industry by the sum of average weekly hours and one-half of overtime hours. The average hourly earnings series p r e pared by the BLS have both advantages and limitations of which the negotiator of an escalation clause should be aware. The principal advantages are (1) that the data are available promptly--preliminary data for broad industrial groups are released less than a month after the reference period (the calendar week including the 12th of the month) and final data in complete detail are available within 3 months--therefore, price adjustments may be made on a reasonably current basis (final data for the month should be used); (2) that the effects of overtime can be eliminated from the data; and (3) that the data represent the major portion of hourly (but not unit) labor costs. The Bureau also publishes estimates of average hourly earnings excluding overtime for 20 major industries and three inclusive groups» The derivation of this series is based on the as sumption that overtime hours are paid for at the rate of timeand-one-half. 2 / For nearly 150othermanufacturing industries the Bureau publishes Limitations include the following: (1) The data are subject to periodic ad. justment. Because the data from which the earnings estimates are calculated come from a sample, periodic adjustments for divergences between estimates and actual (or benchmark) levels are necessary. The adjustments are made annually, and usually require small r e v i s i o n s of the monthly employment estimates for the previous 2 years. These adjustments are made for total employment only, but since employment weights are used to combine the earnings estimates for small industries into more inclusive groupings, a change in relative levels of employment may produce a small change in the level of e a r n i n g s for the larger industry category. 2 / Estimates are not prepared for the printing and publishing industry, since the premium pay practices differ significantly from 1-1/2 times the usual rate of pay. (2) For narrowly defined industries, factors such as seasonal movements can affect short-term trends. For example, in a highly seasonal industry, temporary help may be added to the The series on gross average hourly earnings are derived by dividing gross payroll for the survey week by the corresponding man-hours. Average weekly hours are derived by dividing the weekly man-hour figure by the number of production workers covered. Average weekly earnings are the product of average hourly earnings and average weekly hours. payroll at average wage rates below the level of the year-round workforce who hold the more skilled, higher paying jobs and who also benefit from the higher earnings which go with accrued seniority. Thus, the composition of the work force can affect the level of earnings. A similar event can take place at the broadly defined industry group. Relatively greater employment growth in higher-paying industries can raise the average earnings for broad groups, and of course greater growth in low-paying industries would have the opposite effect, even though there has been no change in the wage rate structure of the component industries. THE AGREEMENT - A GENERAL GUIDE One of the major purposes of including an escalator clause in a contract is to reduce the risk to a producer resulting from a rise in basic material and labor costs. The user must exercise care in selecting a reference series and in determining the procedures for adjusting the contract price. The escalator should reflect the specified situation or movement accurately and should be beyond the control or influence of either party. All details pertaining to the agreement, of course, would be set down in writing, using examples for clarification if necessary. When providing for the administration of the contract, many factors must be agreed upon in addition to the reference series and a suitable base period. Among these considerations are (1) the percent of total cost represented by labor and by materials; (2) the frequency of price adjustment; and (3) the method used for calculating the adjustment. The series which is to be used must be identified clearly as to the SIC code and title of the industry. The publication in which the series appears should be specified. Provision should be made to take into account any special characteristics of the data, such as the effect of benchmark revisions. The series selected may be broad, r e flecting changes in a larger sector of the economy, or narrowly defined, reflecting more accurately the wages paid by the employer. The more inclusive the series selected, the less subject it will be to random and seasonal fluctuations. The narrowly defined series is better for transferring the risk of price increases-but, at the same time, tends to reduce the producer's incentive to hold down costs. Some provisions should be included in the agreement to cover the event of a change in the definition of the series being used. All industries for which the BL.S currently publishes earnings data are defined by the 1957 SIC as amended. The definitions in the SIC Manual sometimes need modification to reflect changes in the structure of the American economy, and, when this happens, changes in earnings series may (though not necessarily) take place in the smaller, narrowly defined industries. These changes, should they occur, also can affect more inclusive groups as previously described. Whenever changes of this type do occur, the BLS tries to reconstruct the affected series to provide a continuous, comparable series. If this is not feasible, there is usually an overlap period during which the data are available on both the old and the new definition. Fortunately, changes in industrial definition are infrequent and, when they do become necessary, are known for several years in advance of the change. Nevertheless, contract provisions providing for this contingency should be made. ASSISTANCE AND PUBLICATIONS AVAILABLE Technical notes describing the concepts, definitions, collection, and estimation methods used in constructing earnings series are available from the BLS without charge. The selection of the series and the details of its incorporation into the contract are left to the discretion of the contracting parties. The Bureau's earnings data are first released in summary form in the monthly press document "The Employment Situa- tion." Complete industry detail is published shortly thereafter in Employment and Earnings and Monthly Report on the Labor Force. Many of the series also are published in the Monthly Labor Review,, Complete historical detail for all employment, hours, and earnings series is pub- lished by the Bureau in two annual reference volumes.

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 o 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 farm and nonfarm industries is included. The payroll survey covers only wage and salary employees on the payrolls of nonfarm establishments. Databasedon establishment fay roll records are compiled each month from mail questionnaires by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, in cooperation with State agencies. The payroll survey provides detailed industry information on nonagricultural wage and salary employment, average weekly hours, average hourly and weekly earnings, and labor turnover for the Nation, States, and metropolitan areas. The figures are based on payroll reports from a sample of establishments employing about 25 million nonfarm wage and salary workers. The data relate to all workers, full- or part-time, who received pay during the payroll period which includes the 12th of the month. Multiple jobholding. The household approach provides information on the work status of the population without duplication since each person is classified as employed, unemployed, or not in the labor force. Employed persons holding more than one job are counted only once and are classified according to the job at which they worked the greatest number of hours during the survey week. In the figures based on establishment records, persons who worked in more than one 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 NationTs labor force covered by unemployment insurance programs. Weekly reports, by State, are issued on the number of initial claims, the volume and rate of insured unemployment under State unemployment insurance programs, and the volume under programs of unemployment compensation for Federal employees, ex-servicemen, and railroad workers. These statistics are published by the Bureau of Employment Security, U.S. Department of Labor, in "Unemployment Insurance Claims." Unpaid absences from jobs. The household survey includes among the employed all persons who had jobs but were not at work during the survey week—that is, were not working but had jobs from which they were temporarily absent because of illness, bad weather, vacation, labor-management dispute, or because they were taking time off for various other reasons, even if they were not paid by their employers for the time off. In 1 26 the figures based on payroll reports, persons on leave paid for by the company are i n c l u d e d , but not those on leave w i t h o u t pay for the entire payroll period. Hours of Work The household survey measures hours actually worked whereas the payroll survey measures hours paid for by employers. In the household survey data, all persons with a job but not at work are excluded from the hours distributions and the computations of average hours. In the payroll survey, employees on paid vacation, paid holiday, or paid sick leave are included and assigned the number of hours for which they were paid during the reporting period. Comparability of the household interview data with other series Unemployment insurance data. The unemployed total from the household survey includes all persons who did not have a job at all during the survey week and were looking for work or were waiting to be called back to a job from which they had been laid off, regardless of whether or not they were eligible for unemployment insurance. Figures on unemployment insurance claims, prepared by the Bureau of Employment Security of the Department of Labor, exclude persons who have exhausted their benefit rights, new workers who have not earned rights to unemployment insurance, and persons losing jobs not covered by unemployment insurance systems (agriculture, State and local government, domestic service, self employment, unpaid family work, nonprofit organizations, and firms below a minimum size). In addition, the qualifications for drawing unemployment compensation differ from the definition of unemployment used in the household survey. For example, persons with a job but not at work and persons working only a few hours during the week are sometimes eligible for unemployment compensation but are classified as employed rather than unemployed in the household survey. Agricultural employment estimates of the Department of Agriculture. The principal differences in coverage are the inclusion of persons under 16 in the Statistical Research Service (SRS) series and the treatment of dual jobholders who are counted more than once if they worked on more than one farm during the reporting period. There are also wide differences in sampling techniques and collecting and estimating methods, which cannot be readily measured in terms of impact on differences in level and trend of the two series. Comparability of the payroll employment data with other series Statistics on manufactures and business, Bureau of the Census. BLS establishment statistics on employment differ from employment counts derived by the Bureau of the Census from its censuses or annual sample surveys of manufacturing establishments and the censuses of business establishments. The major reasons for some noncomparability are different treatment of business units considered parts of an establishment, such as central administrative offices and auxiliary units, the industrial classification of establishments, and different reporting patterns by multiunit companies. There are also differences in the scope of the industries covered, e.g., the Census of Business excludes contract construction, professional services, public utilities, and financial establishments, whereas these are included in BLS statistics. County Business Patterns. Data 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 nonfarm wage and salary workers are covered by the unemployment insurance programs. All workers in certain activities, such as interstate railroads, are excluded. In addition, small firms in covered industries are also excluded in 31 States. In general, these are establishments with less than four employees. Labor Force Data COLLECTION AND COVERAGE port 313). This report is a v a i l a b l e from BLS on request. Statistics on the employment status of the population, the personal, occupational, and other characteristics of the employed, the unemployed, and persons not in the labor force, and related data are compiled for the BLS by the Bureau of the Census in its Current Population Survey (CPS). A detailed description of this survey appears in ''Concepts and Methods Used in Manpower Statistics from the Current Population Survey" (BLS Re- 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, 1 27 Duration of unemployment represents the length of time (through the current survey week) during which persons classified as unemployed had been continuously looking for work. For persons on layoff, duration of unemployment represents the number of full weeks since the termination of their most recent employment. A period of 2 weeks or more during which a person was employed or ceased looking for work is considered to break the continuity of the present period of seeking work. Average duration is an arithmetic mean computed from a distribution by single weeks of unemployment. Sunday through Saturday, which includes the 12th of the month. This is known as the survey week. Actual field interviewing is conducted in the following week. Inmates of institutions and persons under 16 years of age are not covered in the regular monthly enumerations and are excluded from the population and labor force statistics shown in this report. Data on members of the Armed Forces, who are included as part of the categories "total noninstitutional population" and "total labor force," are obtained from the Department of Defense. The civilian labor force comprises the total of all civilians classified as employed or unemployed in accordance with the criteria described above. The "total labor force" also includes members of the Armed Forces stationed either in the United States or abroad. Each month, 50,000 occupied units are designated for interview. About 2,500 of these households are visited but interviews are not obtained because the occupants are not found at home after repeated calls or are unavailable for other reasons. This represents a noninterview rate for the survey of about 5.0 percent. In addition to the 50,000 occupied units, there are 8,500 sample units in an average month which are visited but found to be vacant or otherwise not to be enumerated. Part of the sample is changed each month. The rotation plan provides for three-fourths of the sample to be common from one month to the next, and one-half to be common with the same month a year ago. The unemployment rate represents the number unemployed as a percent of the civilian labor force. This measure can also be computed for groups within the labor force classified by sex, age, marital status, color, etc. Not in labor force includes all civilians 16 years and over who are not classified as employed or unemployed. These persons are further classified as "engaged in own home housework," "in school," "unable to work" because of long-term physical or mental illness, and "other." The "other" group includes for the most part retired persons, those reported as too old to work, the voluntarily idle, and seasonal workers for whom the survey week fell in an "off" season and who were not reported as unemployed. Persons doing only incidental unpaid family work (less than 15 hours) are also classified as not in the labor force. CONCEPTS Employed persons comprise (a) all those who during the survey week did any work at all as paid employees, in 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. For persons not in the labor force, data on previous work experience, intentions to seek work again, desire for a job at the time of interview, and reasons for not looking for work are compiled on a quarterly basis. The detailed questions for persons not in the labor force are asked only in those households that are new entrants to the sample and in those that are reentering the sample after 8 months' absence. Each employed person is counted only once. Those who held more than one job are counted in the job at which they worked the greatest number of hours during the survey week. Occupation, Included in the total are employed citizens of foreign countries, temporarily in the United States, who are not living on the premises of an Embassy. Excluded are persons whose only activity consisted of work around the house (such as own home housework, and painting or repairing own home) or volunteer work for religious, charitable, and similar organizations. Unemployed persons comprise all persons who did not work during the survey week, who made specific efforts to find a job within the past 4 weeks, and who were available for work during the survey week (except for temporary illness). Also included as unemployed are those who did not work at all, were available for work, and (a) were waiting to be called back to a job from which they had been laid off; or (b) were waiting to report to a new wage or salary job within 30 days. industry, and class of worker* f o r the employed apply to the job held in the survey week. Persons with two or more jobs are classified in the job at which they worked the greatest number of hours during the survey week. The unemployed are classified according to their latest full-time civilian job lasting 2 weeks or more. The occupation and industry groups used in data derived from the CPS household interviews are defined as in the 1960 Census of Population. Information on the detailed categories included in these groups is available upon request. The class-of-worker breakdown specifies "wage and salary workers," subdivided into private and government workers, "self-employed workers," and "unpaid family workers." Wage and salary workers receive wages, salary, commission, tips, or pay in kind from a private employer or from a governmental unit. Self-employed persons are those who work for profit or fees in their 1 28 own business, profession, or trade, or operate a farm. Unpaid family workers are persons working without pay for 15 hours a week or more on a farm or in a business operated by a member of the household to whom they are related by blood or marriage. ESTIMATING METHODS Under the estimation methods used in the CPS, all of the results for a given month become available simultaneously and are based on returns from the entire panel of respondents. There are no subsequent adjustments to independent benchmark data on labor force, employment, or unemployment. Therefore, revisions of the historical data are not an inherent feature of this statistical program. 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. T h i s 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 migration between the U n i t e d 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 mo nth-to- month changes especially and of the levels for most items also. 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 full~ time work is not available), and unemployed persons seeking full-time jobs. The 'part-time labor force consists of persons working part time voluntarily and unemployed persons seeking part-time work. Persons with a job but not at work during the survey week are classified according to whether they usually work full or part time. 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 w o r k 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. 293-986 O - 68 - 9 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. 1 29 Reliability of the Estimates Since the estimates are based on a sample, they may differ from the figures that would have been obtained if it were possible to take a complete census using the same schedules and procedures. The standard error is a measure of sampling variability, that is, the variations that might occur by chance because only a sample of the population is surveyed. The chances are about 2 out of 3 that an estimate from the sample would differ from a complete census by less than the standard error. The chances are about 19 out of 20 that the difference would be less than twice the standard error. Table A shows the average standard error for the major employment status categories, by sex, computed from data for past months. Estimates of change derived from the survey are also subject to sampling variability. The standard error of change for consecutive months is also shown in table A. The standard errors of level shown in table A are acceptable approximations of the standard errors of year-to-year change. 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. 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 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.

Nonwhite 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.

These schedules are of the "shuttle" type, with space for each month of the calendar year. The collecting 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 r e spondent can see the figures he has reported for previous months. COLLECTION Payroll reports provide current information on wage and salary employment, hours, earnings, and labor turnover in nonfarm establishments, by industry and geographic location. Federal-State Cooperation Form BLS 790 provides for entry of data on the number of full- and part-time workers on the payrolls of nonagricultural establishments and, for most industries, payroll and man-hours of production and related workers or nonsupervisory workers for the pay period which includes the 12th of the month. The labor turnover schedule provides for the collection of information on the total number of accessions and separations, by type, during the calendar month. Under cooperative arrangements with State agencies, the respondent fills out only one employment or labor turnover schedule, which is then used for national, State, and area estimates. This eliminates duplicate reporting on the part of respondents and, together with the use of identical techniques at the national and State levels, insures maximum comparability of estimates. State agencies mail the forms to the establishments and examine the returns for consistency, accuracy, and completeness. The States use the information to prepare State and area series and then send the data to the BLS for use in preparing the national series. CONCEPTS Industrial Classification Shuttle Schedules Two types of data collection schedules are used; Form BLS 790—Monthly Report on Employment, Payroll, and Hours; and Form DL 1219—Monthly Report 131 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. 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. All national, State, and area employment, hours, earnings, and labor turnover series are classified in accordance with the Standard Industrial Classification Manual, Bureau of the Budget, 1957, as amended by the 1963 Supplement. Nonsupervisory 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 that for the Federal Government refer to persons on establishment payrolls who r e ceived pay for any part of the pay period which includes the 12th of the month. For Federal Government establishments, employment figures represent the number of persons who occupied positions on the last day of the calendar month. Intermittent workers are counted if they performed any service during the month. The data exclude proprietors, the self-employed, unpaid 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 an establishment payroll who are on paid sick leave (when pay is received directly from the firm), on paid holiday or paid vacation, or who work during a part of the pay period and are unemployed or on strike during the rest of the period, are counted as employed. Not counted as employed are persons who are laid off, on leave without pay, or on strike for the entire period, or who are hired but do not report to work during the period. Industry Hours and Earnings Hours and earnings data are derived from reports of payrolls and man-hours for production and related workers in manufacturing and mining, construction workers in contract construction, and nonsupervisory employees in the remaining nonfarm components. For Federal Government, hours and earnings relate to all employees who worked or received pay during the pay period which includes the 12th of the month. Terms are defined below. When the pay period reported is longer than 1 week, figures are reduced to a weekly basis. Production and related workers include working foremen and all nonsupervisory workers (including leadmen and trainees) engaged in fabricating, processing, assembling, inspection, receiving, storage, handling, packing, warehousing, shipping, maintenance, repair, janitorial and watchman services, product development, auxiliary production for plant's own use (e.g., power plant), and recordkeeping and other services closely associated with the above production operations. Construction workers include the following employees in the contract construction division: Working foremen, 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. Man-hours cover man-hours worked or paid for, during the pay period which includes the 12th of the month, for production, construction, or nonsupervisory workers. The man-hours include hours paid for holidays and vacations, and for sick leave when pay is received directly from the firm. Overtime hours cover 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 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 workers 1 earnings in individual establishments also affect the general earnings averages. Averages for groups and divisions further r e flect 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 132 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 (Bureau of Employment Security), 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 the gross average weekly earnings for all production or nonsupervisory workers in the industry division without regard to total family income. "Real" earnings are computed by dividing the current Consumer Price Index into the earnings averages for the current month. The level of earnings is thus adjusted for changes in purchasing power since the base period (1957-59). Average Hourly Earnings Excluding Overtime Average hourly earnings excluding 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 l i times the straight-time rates. No adjustment is made for other premium payment provisions, such as holiday work, late-shift work, and overtime rates other than time and one-half. Indexes of Aggregate Weekly Payrolls and Man-Hours The indexes of aggregate weekly payrolls and manhours are prepared by dividing the current month's aggregate by the monthly average for the 1957-59 period. The man-hour aggregates are the product of average weekly hours and production-worker employment, and the payroll aggregates are the product of gross average weekly earnings and production-worker employment. 1 33 Labor Turnover ESTIMATING METHODS Labor turnover is the gross movement of wage and salary workers into and out of employed status with respect to individual establishments. This movement, which relates to a calendar month, is divided into two broad types: Accessions (new hires and rehires) and separations (terminations of employment initiated by either employer or employee). Each type of action is cumulated for a calendar month and expressed as a rate per 100 employees. The data relate to all employees, whether full- or part-time, permanent or temporary, including executive, office, sales, other salaried personnel, and production workers. Transfers to another establishment of the company are included, beginning with January 1959. The 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. 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: 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 for a period expected to last more than 30 consecutive calendar days. Comparability With Employment Series Month-to-month changes in total employment in manufacturing industries reflected by labor turnover rates are not comparable with the changes shown in the Bureau's employment series for the 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. 1 34 The "Link Relative" Technique From a sample composed of establishments reporting for both the previous and current months, the ratio of current month employment to that of the previous month is computed. This is called a link relative. The estimates of employment (all employees, including production and nonproduction workers together) for the current month are obtained by multiplying the estimates for the previous month by these "link relatives." Other features of the general procedures are described later in the table, Summary of Methods for Computing Industry Statistics on Employment, Hours, Earnings, and Labor Turnover. Further details are given in the technical notes on Measurement of Employment> Hours, and Earnings in Nonagricultural Industries andon MeasurementoiLabor Turnover, which are available upon request. Size and Regional Stratification A number of industries are stratified by size of establishment and/or by region, and the stratified production- or nonsupervisory-worker data are used to weight the hours and earnings into broader industry groupings. Accordingly, the basic estimating cell for an employment, hours, or earnings series, as the term is used in the summary of computational methods may be a whole industry or a size stratum, a region stratum, or a size stratum of a region within an industry. Benchmark Adjustments 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 1966 levels. Normally, benchmark adjustments are made annually. The primary source of benchmark information is the employment data, by industry, compiled quarterly by State agencies from reports of establishments covered under State unemployment insurance laws. These tabulations, covering three-fourths of the total nonfarm employment in the United States, are prepared under the direction of the Bureau of Employment Security. Benchmark data for the residual are obtained from the records of the Social Security Administration, the Interstate Commerce Commission, and a number of other agencies in private industry or government. The estimates relating to the benchmark month are compared with new benchmark levels, industry by industry. If revisions are necessary, the monthly series of estimates are adjusted between the new benchmark and the preceding one, and the new benchmark for each industry then is 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. Data for all months since the last benchmark to which the series has been adjusted are subject therefore to revision. To provide users of the data with a convenient reference source for the revised data, the BLS publishes as soon as possible after each benchmark revision a summary volume of employment, hours, earnings, and labor turnover statistics. THE SAMPLE ducing timely data at minimum cost, a sample must be obtained which will provide coverage of a sufficiently large segment of the universe to provide reasonably reliable estimates that can be published promptly and regularly. The present sample meets these specifications for most industries. With its use, the BLS is able to produce preliminary estimates each month for many industries and for many geographic levels within a few weeks after reports are mailed by respondents, and at a somewhat later date, statistics in considerably greater industrial detail. The tendency of such a sample to produce biased estimates of the level of earnings for certain industries is counteracted by the stratified estimating procedure d e s c r i b e d under "Estimating Methods." Design The sampling plan used in the current employment statistics program is an optimum allocation design known as "sampling proportionate to average size of establishment." The universe of establishments is stratified first by industry and then within each industry by size of establishment in terms of employment. For each industry the total size of the sample is distributed among the size class cells on the basis of average employment per establishment in each cell. In practice, this is equivalent to distributing the predetermined total number of establishments required in the sample among the cells on the basis of the ratio of employment in each cell to total employment in the industry. Within each stratum the sample members are selected at random. Under this type of design, large establishments fall into the sample with certainty. The size of the samples for the various industries is determined empirically on the basis of experience and of cost considerations. In a manufacturing industry in which a high proportion of total employment is concentrated in 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- 135 Coverage The BLS sample of establishment employment and payrolls is the largest monthly sampling operation in the field of social statistics. The table that follows shows the approximate proportion of total employment in each industry division covered by the group of establishments furnishing monthly employment data. The coverage for individual industries within the division may vary from the proportions shown.

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. (A detailed description of the March 1966 benchmark is available from the Bureau upon request.) The entire difference between the estimate and benchmarks is assumed to have accumulated at a regular rate. Accordingly, the all employee series are adjusted by tapering out the differences for months between the current and the previous benchmark. The series for months subsequent to the benchmark month are revised by projecting the level of the new benchmark by the trend of the unadjusted series. For the most recent months, national, State, and area estimates are preliminary and are so footnoted in the tables. These figures are based on less than the total sample and are revised when all the reports in the sample design have been received. Approximations of the standard deviations (based on the experience of the last several years) of revisions between (1) final estimates and benchmarks, and (2) preliminary and final estimates, are presented in the following table. The chances are about 2 out of 3 that the revisions will be less than the amount indicated for each size of estimate. The chances are about 19 out of 20 that the revisions will be less than twice the amount indicated. 136 Standard deviations of revisions 50,000 100,000 200,000 500,000 1,000,000 Final 1 Preliminary 2,000 2,500 4,000 7,200 11,600 1,000 1 500 3,000 3,600 500 1 Assuming 12-month intervals between benchmark revisions.

The area statistics relate to • metropolitan areas. Definitions for all areas are published each year in the issue of Employment ana framings and Monthly Report on the Labor Force that contains State and area annual averages. Changes in definitions are noted as they occur. Additional industry detail may be obtained from the State agencies listed on the inside back cover of each issue. These statistics are based on the same establishment reports used by BLS for preparing national estimates. For employment, the sum of the State figures may differ slightly from the equivalent official U.S. totals on a national basis, because some States have more recent benchmarks than others and because of the effects of differing industrial and geographic stratification. 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. UNEMPLOYMENT INSURANCE DATA Insured unemployment represents the number of persons reporting a week of unemployment under an unern* ployment insurance program. It includes some persons who are working part time who would be counted as employed in the payroll and household surveys. Excluded are persons who have exhausted their benefit rights, new workers who have not earned rights to unemployment insurance, and persons losing jobs not covered by unemployment insurance systems (agriculture, State and local government, domestic service, self-employment, unpaid family work, nonprofit organizations, and firms below a minimum size). The rate of insured unemployment is the number of insured unemployed expressed as a percent of average covered employment in a 12-month period ending 6 to 8 months prior to the week of reference. Initial claims are notices filed by those losing jobs covered by an unemployment insurance program that they are starting a period of unemployment. A claimant who continues to be unemployed a full week is then counted in the insured unemployment figure. Because of differences in State laws and procedures under which unemployment insurance programs are operated, State unemployment rates generally indicate, but do not precisely measure, differences among the individual States. Persons wishing to receive a detailed description of the nature, sources, inclusions and exclusions, and limitations of unemployment insurance data should address their inquiries to Bureau of Employment Security, Washington, D.C. SEASONAL ADJUSTMENT Many economic statistics reflect a regularly recurring seasonal movement which can be estimated on the basis of past experience. By eliminating that part of the change which can be ascribed to usual seasonal variation, it is possible to observe the cyclical and other nonseasonal movements in the series. However, in evaluating deviations from the seasonal pattern—that is, changes in a seasonally adjusted series—it is important to note that seasonal adjustment is merely an approximation based on past experience. Seasonally adjusted estimates have a broader margin of possible error than the original data on which they are based, since they are subject not only to sampling and other errors but, in addition, are affected by the uncertainties of the seasonal adjustment process itself. Seasonally adjusted series for selected labor force and establishment data are published regularly in Employment and Earnings and Monthly Report on the Labor Force. The seasonal adjustment method used for these series is an adaptation of the standard ratio-to-moving average method, with a provision for "moving" adjustment factors to take account of changing seasonal patterns. A detailed description of the method is given in the booklet, The BLS Seasonal Factor Method (1966), which may be obtained from the Bureau on request. For establishment data, the seasonally adjusted series on weekly hours and labor turnover rates for industry groupings are computed by applying factors directly to the corresponding unadjusted series. 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 seasonally adjusted establishment data for Federal Government are based on a series which excludes the Christmas temporary help employed by the Post Office Department in December. The employment of these workers constitutes the only significant seasonal change in Federal Government employment during the winter months. Furthermore, the volume of such employment may change substantially from year to year because of administrative decisions by the Post Office Department. Hence, it was considered desirable to exclude this group from the data upon which the seasonally adjusted series is based. Factors currently in use for the establishment data are shown in the September 1967 Employment and Earnings and Monthly Report on the Labor Force, and revisions Will be made coincidental with the adjustment of series to new benchmark levels. 137 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). 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 1967 are published in the February 1968 Employment and Earnings and Monthly Report on the Labor Force. 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 1966 benchmarks. Data from April 1966 forward are subject to revision at the time of the next benchmark. Beginning with the September 1967 and subsequent issues of Employment and Earnings and Monthly Report on the Labor Force, 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, 1967. Comparable data are published in Employment and Earnings Statistics for the United States, 1909-67, BLS Bulletin 1312-5.
