The September 1971 issue marks the introduction of March 1970 benchmarks. Employment and Unemployment Developments, February 1972 Unemployment declined slightly in February, and employment was essentially unchanged. The overall jobless rate was 5.7 percent in February, down from 5.9 percent in January and 6.0 percent in December. Total employment was 80.6 million in February, seasonally adjusted, unchanged from January. Since last summer, however, the number of jobholders has risen substantially. Nonfarm payroll employment likewise was little changed in February but also has posted sizeable gains since last summer. The average workweek in manufacturing rebounded in February from a drop in the previous month, reaching its highest level in over 2 years. Unemployment The number of unemployed persons totaled 5.4 million in February, the same level as in the previous month and in February a year ago. After adjustment for the usual seasonal rise, however, unemployment was down 160,000 over the month. The decline was most marked among adult women, whose rate moved down from 5.5 to 5.0 percent. The unemployment rate for all adult men (20 years and over), at 4.0 percent in February, was slightly below its January level of 4.2 percent; the entire decline took place among those 20 to 24 years of age (whose rate dipped from 10.4 to 9.2 percent), as the rate for men 25 years and older held steady at 3.2 percent. The jobless rate for married men edged down for the third consecutive month, reaching 2.8 percent in February, its lowest level since the summer of 1970. In contrast to the favorable developments among adult workers, the jobless rate for teenagers rose over the month and at 18.8 percent equaled the previous postWorld War II highs. Unemployment rates for full-time workers (5.3 percent) and part-time workers (8.4 percent) were little changed in February. The jobless rate for workers covered by State unemployment insurance programs, which had dropped substantially in January (from 4.1 to 3.4 percent), was also about unchanged over the month, at 3.5 percent. The unemployment rate for white workers edged down in February (from 5.3 to 5.1 percent), while the rate for Negroes was about the same over the month (10.5 percent). This marked the first time since August 1969 that the Negro-white jobless rate ratio has been at or above 2.0 to 1 for two successive months. The widening of this ratio in recent months stems from a sharp rise in joblessness among Negro youth and a decline among white adults. The jobless rates for workers in most major industry groups in February moved down slightly from January. The largest movement took place in durable goods manufacturing, where the rate declined from 6.7 to 6.1 percent. Among the occupation groups, the rate for whitecollar workers declined from 3.6 to 3.3 percent. This was mainly a result of a reduction in joblessness among professional and technical workers, whose rate moved down from 3.1 to 2.5 percent, its lowest level in 8 months. The number of workers jobless less than 5 weeks was 2.1 million, seasonally adjusted, 220,000 below the January level. By contrast, the number unemployed for 27 weeks or more rose over the month. Partly as a result of these movements, the average (mean) duration of joblessness increased to 12.5 weeks in February, seasonally adjusted. During the past 10 months, the average duration has fluctuated between 11.4 and 12.6 weeks. Civilian labor force and total employment The civilian labor force, at 85.5 million, seasonally adjusted, was little changed in February, as was total employment, at 80.6 million. Since February 1971, however, the civilian labor force has expanded by 1.7 million and employment by 1.8 million (after eliminating the effects of the population control adjustment introduced in January 1972). Over the year, employment of adult men has risen by about 900,000, employment of adult women by 700,000, and employment of teenagers by 200,000. Since last summer, the gains have been concentrated among adult women. Vietnam Era veterans Industry payroll employment The employment situation for Vietnam Era veterans 20 to 29 years old improved in February, as employment continued to rise while unemployment did not show the usual seasonal increase. About 4.1 million veterans were in the labor force in February; 3.7 million held jobs and 400,000 were unemployed. After seasonal adjustment, the unemployment rate for veterans, at 7.4 percent, was substantially below the January level of 8.5 percent and the lowest in more than a year. (See table 1.) Young veterans 20 to 24 years old accounted for most of the over-the-month reduction in the veterans' unemployment rate. Their jobless rate in February was 9.7 percent, seasonally adjusted, down from 12.3 percent in January. The unemployment rate for young veterans 20 to 24 years old has generally been much higher than for nonveterans of the same age, but the improvement in February erased most of the difference. The rate for 25-29 year-old veterans, at 5.4 percent, was about the same as a month earlier. For all nonveterans 20 to 29 years old, the seasonally adjusted unemployment rate of 7.0 percent was essentially the same as in January and most of 1971. Contrary to its previous pattern, the nonveteran rate was not significantly below that for veterans. Nonfarm payroll employment stood at 71.7 million in February seasonally adjusted, little changed from the upward-revised January level. Over the last 6 months, however, payroll employment has risen by almost 1.2 million. In February, employment continued to gain in the service-producing industries, but this was partly offset by a decline in contract construction. In the service-producing industries, employment rose 150,000, seasonally adjusted, as large gains were posted in trade, services, and State and local government. Since August 1971, service-producing employment has increased by nearly 1 million jobs. The number of workers on contract construction payrolls dipped 80,000, seasonally adjusted, in February to 3.2 million, following a nearly equal increase between December and January. Employment in this industry has fluctuated around the narrow 3.2 to 3.3 million range over the past year and a half. In manufacturing, employment was essentially unchanged in February, at 18.6 million (seasonally adjusted). There were no significant changes in either the durable or nondurable goods sectors.

Over 80 percent of the Vietnam Era veterans of all ages are 20 to 29 years old. Post-Korean-peacetime veterans 20 to 29 years old are not included in this table. 2 Not applicable. Hours of work The average workweek for all rank-and-file workers on private nonagricultural payrolls edged up in February. After seasonal adjustment, the average workweek rose 0.2 hour to 37.2 hours. This brought average hours back to the December level, the highest point since July 1970. The largest increase in the workweek occurred in manufacturing—0.4 hour, seasonally adjusted—as average hours rose to 40.4 hours, their highest level since December 1969. Within manufacturing, the workweek in durable goods rose 0.5 hour to 41.0 hours, seasonally adjusted, following a decline of nearly an equal amount between December and January. The average workweek for durable goods has risen 1.3 hours since September. In nondurable goods, the average workweek rose 0.3 hour in February. Overtime hours in manufacturing went up 0.2 hour in February to 3.1 hours, seasonally adjusted. This increase brought factory overtime back to its December level, which had been the highest level since March 1970. Hourly and weekly earnings Average hourly earnings of production and nonsupervisory workers on private nonagricultural payrolls in February were unchanged from January at $3.54, both before and after seasonal adjustment. Compared with a year ago, average hourly earnings were up 19 cents, or 5.7 percent. Due to the slight rise in the actual workweek, average weekly earnings in February rose 35 cents to $130.27. After adjusting for seasonality, average weekly earnings were up 71 cents over the month. Compared with February 1971, average weekly earnings have risen $7.66 or 6.2 percent. During the latest 12-month period for which the Consumer Price Index is available—January 1971 to January 1972—consumer prices rose 3.4 percent. Hourly earnings index In February, the Bureau's Hourly Earnings Index, seasonally adjusted, was 134.2 (1967=100), about the same as in January according to preliminary figures. The index was 5.9 percent higher than February a year ago. (See table 2.) Between February 1971 and February 1972, all industries posted increases, ranging from 4.3 percent in services to 8.9 percent in transportation and public utilities. Because erratic monthly fluctuations can occur in the index, changes over longer intervals than a month should be observed before reaching conclusions as to a trend. Table 2.

The index is designed to measure underlying wage movements for production or nonsupervisory workers in the private nonfarm economy. It is adjusted to exclude effects of two types of changes that are unrelated to underlying wage rate developments: Fluctuations in overtime premiums in manufacturing (the only sector for which overtime data are available) and the effects of shifts of workers between high-wage and low-wage industries. However, it is not a pure measure of wage rate change, since it is affected by such factors as fluctuations of earnings under incentive plans, changes in the proportion of low- and high-paid workers within establishments, and overtime variations outside of manufacturing.

The tables that follow present the adjusted job vacancy estimates beginning with April 1969 data. A job vacancy benchmark, or a complete count of job vacancies from all employers, is not available; the small revisions in the data are the result of changes in the employment weights only. Reported job vacancy data at the detailed industry levels are weighted using the employment estimates for each industry, and summed to yield estimates for the more inclusive industry and division categories. The following compares the March 1970 vacancy estimates based on the current benchmark with those for the same month based on the previous benchmark employment levels. As can be seen, the effects of the 1970 benchmark adjustment on the job vacancy estimates were slight. The estimated number of vacancies was changed by only 1,000, or 0.6 percent, and in only one instance was the estimated rate of total job vacancies changed.

Long-term job vacancies are those vacancies that have remained unfilled for 30 days or more. The long-term job vacancy rate is computed by dividing the number of long-te ancies and multiplying that quotient by 100. Percentages are computed using unrounded rates. * Less than 0.05. mcies by the sum of employment plus job Technical Note Employment The statistics i.i this periodical are compiled from three major sources: (1) Household interviews, (2) reports from employers, and (3) administrative statistics of unemployment insurance systems. 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 47,000 households, representing 461 areas in 9 2 3 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. 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 in family-operated enterprises. Employment in both agricultural and nonagricultural industries is included. The payroll survey covers only wage and salary employees on the payrolls of nonagricultural establishments. 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. 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 f|ad jobs from wjiich 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 the figures based on payroll reports, persons on leave paid for by the company are included, but not those on leave without pay for the entire payroll period. Data based on establishment records are compiled each month from mail questionnaires by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, in cooperation with State agencies. The establishment surveys are designed to provide detailed industry information on nonagricultural wage and salary employment, average weekly hours, average hourly and weekly earnings, job vacancies, and labor turnover for the Nation, States, and metropolitan areas. The employment, hours, and earnings series are based on payroll reports from a sample of establishments employing about 30 million nonagriculture wage and salary workers. The data relate to all workers, full- or part-time, who received pay during the payroll period which includes the 12th of the month. Based on a somewhat smaller sample, labor turnover data relate to actions occurring during the month while job vacancies pertain to those outstanding at the end of the month. For a comprehensive discussion of the differences between household and establishment survey employment data, see Gloria P. Green's article "Comparing employment estimates from household and payroll surveys," Monthly Labor Review, December 1969. Reprints of this article are available upon request from the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Data based on administrative records of unemployment insurance systems furnish a complete count of insured unemployment among the two-thirds of the Nation's labor force covered by unemployment insurance programs. Weekly reports, by State, are issued on the number of initial claims, the volume, and rate of insured unemployment under State unemployment insurance programs, and the volume under programs of unemployment compensation for Federal employees, ex-servicemen, and railroad workers. These statistics are published by the Manpower Administration, U.S. Department of Labor, in "Unemployment Insurance Claims." 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. Relation between the household and establishment series The household and establishment 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 major factors which have a differential effect on levels and trends of the two series ar. as follows: 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 Manpower Administration of the Department of Labor, exclude persons who have exhausted their benefit 127 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. For an examination of the similarities and differences between State insured unemployment and total unemployment, see "Measuring Total and State Insured Unemployment" by Gloria P. Green in the June 1971 issue of the Monthly Labor Review. Reprints of this article may be obtained upon request. 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. 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 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 ail nonagricultural wage and salary workers are covered by the unemployment insurance programs. All workers in certain activities, such as interstate railroads, are excluded. In addition, small firms in covered industries are also excluded in about half the States. In general, these are establishments with less than four employees. Additional information concerning the preparation of the labor force, employment, hours, earnings, job vacancy, and labor turnover series—concepts and scope, survey methods, and limitations—is contained in technical notes for each of these series, available from the Bureau of Labor Statistics free of charge. 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 Labor Force Data Collection and coverage Statistics on the employment status of the population, the personal, occupational, and other characteristics of the employed, the unemployed, and persons not in the labor force, and related data are compiled for the BLS by the Bureau of the Census in its Current Population Survey (CPS). A detailed description of this survey appears in "Concepts and Methods Used in Manpower Statistics from the Current Population Survey" (BLS Report 313). 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 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, 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. Each month, 47,000 occupied units are designated for interview. About 1,700 of these households are visited but interviews are not obtained because the occupants are not found at home after repeated calls or are unavailable for other reasons. This represents a noninterview rate for the survey of about 4 percent. In addition to the 47,000 occupied units, there are about 7,500 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. 128 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 termporarily 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. Each employed person is counted onty once. Those who held more than one job are counted in the job at which they worked the greatest number of hours during the survey week. Included in the total are employed citizens of foreign countries, temporarily in the United States, who are not living on the premises of an Embassy. Excluded are persons whose only activity consisted of work around the house (such as own home housework, and painting or repairing own home) or volunteer work for religious, charitable, and similar organizations. 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. 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. Unemployed persons by reasons for unemployment are divided into four major groups. (1) Job losers are persons whose employment ended involuntarily who immediately began looking for work and persons on layoff. (2) Job leavers are persons who quit or otherwise terminated their employment voluntarily and immediately began looking for work. (3) Reentrants are persons who previously worked at a full-time job lasting 2 weeks or longer but who were out of the labor force prior to beginning to look for work. (4) New entrants are persons who never worked at a full-time job lasting 2 weeks or longer. The civilian labor force comprises the total of all civilians classified as employed or unemployed in accordance with the criteria described above. The "total labor force" also includes members of the Armed Forces stationed either in the United States or abroad. The unemployment rate represents the number unemployed as a percent of the civilian labor force. This measure can also be computed for groups within the labor force classified by sex, age, marital status, color, etc. The job-loser, job-leaver, reentrant, and new entrant rates are each calculated as a percent of the civilian labor force; the sum of the rates for the four groups thus equals the total unemployment rate. Participation rates represent the proportion of the noninstitutional population that is in the labor force. Two types of participation rates are published: The total labor force participation rate, which is the ratio of the total labor force and the total noninstitutional population, and the civilian labor force participation rate, which is the ratio of civilian labor force and civilian noninstitutional population. Participation rates are usually published for sex-age groups, often cross-classified by other demographic characteristics such as color and educational attainment. 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. 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. As of January 1970, the detailed questions for persons not in the labor force are asked only in those households that are in the fourth and eighth months of the sample, i.e., the "outgoing" groups, those which had been in the sample for 3 previous months and would not be in for the subsequent month. Between 1967 and 1969, the detailed not-inlabor force questions were asked of persons in the first and fifth months in the sample, i.e., the "incoming" groups. Occupation, industry, and class of worker for the employed apply to the job held in the survey week. Persons with two or more jobs are classified in the job at which they worked the greatest number of hours during the survey week. The unemployed are classified according to their latest full-time civilian job lasting 2 weeks or more. The occupation and industry groups used in data derived from the CPS household interviews are defined as in the 1970 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, "selfemployed 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. Selfemployed 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 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. The distribution of employment by hours worked relate to persons "at work" during the survey week. At-work data differ from data on total employment because the latter include persons in zero-hours worked category, "with a job but not at work." Included in this latter group are persons who were on vacation, ill, involved in a labor dispute, or otherwise absent from their jobs for voluntary, noneconomic reasons. Persons who worked 35 hours or more in the survey week are designated as working "full time;" persons who worked between 129 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 oeak season. Persons on fulltime schedules include, in addition to those working 35 hours or more, those who worked from 1-34 hours for noneconomic reasons and 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 work lost an average of 37.5 hours, (2) that those looking for part-time 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 actual number of hours they worked. White and Negro and other races are terms used to describe the color or race of workers. The Negro and other races category, which had formerly been identified as "Nonwhite," includes all persons who are observed in the enumeration process to be other than white. At the time of the 1960 Census of Population, approximately 92 percent of the Negro and other races population group were Negro; the remainder were American Indians, Eskimos, Orientials, and other nonwhites. Tables in this volume which contain these data utilize the word "color" to so indicate. Major activity: going to school and major activity: other are terms used to describe whether the activity of young persons during the reference week was primarily one of going to school or not. Statistics on major activities are published every month in table A-5 for 16-21 year-olds by employment status, color, sex, and, if unemployed, whether seeking full- or part-time work. 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 of the respondent for other reasons. This adjustment is made separately by combinations of sample areas and, within these, for six groups—two race categories (white, and Negro and other races) within three residence categories. For sample areas which are standard metropolitan statistical areas (SMSA's), these resi- 130 dence categories are the central cities, and the urban and the rural balance of the SMSA's. For other sample areas, the residence categories are 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. Ratio estimates. The distribution of the population selected for the sample may differ somewhat, by chance, from that of the Nation as a whole, in such characteristics as age, color, sex, and residence. Since these population characteristics are closely correlated with labor force participation and other principal measurements made from the sample, the latter estimates can be substantially improved when weighted appropriately by the known distribution of these population characteristics. This is accomplished through two stages of ratio estimates as follows: a. First-stage ratio estimate. This is a procedure in which the sample proportions are weighted by the known 1970 Census data on the color-residence distribution of the population. This step takes into account the differences existing at the time of the 1970 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 (1970) to take account of subsequent aging of the population, mortality, and migration between the United States and other countries. 3. Composite estimate procedure. In deriving statistics for a given month, a composite estimating procedure is used which takes account of net changes from the previous month for continuing parts of the sample (75 percent) as well as the sample results for the current month. This procedure reduces the sampling variability of month-to-month changes especially and of the levels for most items also. 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. 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. 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 f i n d 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. 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 f r o m the figure which would have been obtained f r o m a complete count of the number of persons working the given number of hours. Using the 133,000 as the standard error of the monthly level in table C, it may be seen that the standard error of the 500,000 increase is about 126,000. Table A.

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).

All national, State, and area employment, hours, earnings, job vacancy, and labor turnover series are classified in accordance with the Standard industrial Classification Manual, Bureau of the Budget, 1967. Industry employment Federal-State cooperation Under cooperative arrangements with State agencies, the respondent fills out a single employment or job vacancy-labor turnover reporting form, which is then used for national, State, and area estimates. This eliminates duplicate reporting on the part of respondents and, together with the use of identical techniques at the national and State levels, insures maximum comparability of estimates. State agencies mail the forms to the establishments and examine the returns for consistency, accuracy, and completeness. The States use the information to prepare State and area series and then send the establishment data to the BLS for use in preparing the national series. 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 on Job Openings and Labor Turnover. 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 respondent can see the figures he has reported for previous months. 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 manhours of production and related workers or nonsupervisory workers for the pay period which includes the 12th of the month. Form DL 1219 provides for the collection of information on the total number of accessions and separations, by type, during the calendar month, and three job vacancy items as of the end of the month: Current job vacancies, (i.e., vacancies available for immediate filling), current vacancies which have remained unfilled for 30 days or more, and openings with future starting dates. CONCEPTS Industrial classification Establishments reporting on Form BLS 790 and Form DL 1219 are classified into industries on the basis of their principal product or activity determined from information on annual sales volume. This information is collected each year on a supplement to the monthly 790 or 1219 report. For an establishment making more than one product or engaging in more than one activity, the entire employment of the establishment is included under the industry indicated by the most important product or activity. 132 Employment data, except those for the Federal Government, refer to persons on establishment payrolls who received pay for any part of the pay period which includes the 12th of the month. For Federal Government establishments, employment figures represent the number of persons who occupied positions on the last day of the calendar month. Intermittent workers are counted if they performed any service during the month. The data exclude proprietors, the self-employed, unpaid volunteer or family workers, farm workers, and domestic workers in households. Salaried officers of corporations are included. Government employment covers only civilian employees; military personnel are excluded. Persons on establishment payrolls who are on paid sick leave (when pay is received directly from the firm), on paid holiday or paid vacation, or who work during a part of the pay period and are unemployed or on strike during the rest of the period, are counted as employed. Not counted as employed are persons who are laid off, on leave without pay, or on strike for the entire period or who are hired but have not reported to work during the period. 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 private nonagricultural components. For Federal Government, hours and earnings relate to all employees, both supervisory and nonsupervisory. Terms are defined below. When the pay period reported is longer than 1 week, figures are reduced to a weekly basis. Production and related workers include working foreman 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, journeymen, mechanic's apprentices, laborers, etc., whether working at the site of construction or in shops or yards, at jobs (such as precutting and preassembling) ordinarily performed by members of the construction trades. Nonsupervisory employees include employees (not above the working supervisory level) such as office and clerical workers, repairmen, salespersons, operators, drivers, physicians, lawyers, accountants, nurses, social workers, research aids, teachers, draftsmen, photographers, beauticians, musicians, restaurant workers, custodial workers, attendants, linemen, laborers. For example, persistent long-term increases in the proportion of part-time workers in retail trade and many of the service industries has reduced average workweeks in these industries and has affected the average weekly earnings series. janitors, watchmen, and similar occupational levels, and other employees whose services are closely associated with those of the employees listed. Payroll covers the payroll for full- and part-time production, construction, or nonsupervisory workers who received pay for any part of the pay period which includes the 12th of the month. The payroll is reported before deductions of any kind, e.g., for old-age and unemployment insurance, group insurance, withholding tax, bonds, or union dues; also included is pay for overtime, holidays, vacations, and sick leave paid directly by the firm. Bonuses (unless earned and paid regularly each pay period), other pay not earned in pay period reported (e.g., retroactive pay), tips, and the value of free rent, fuel, meals, or other payment in kind are excluded. "Fringe benefits" (such as health and other types of insurance, contributions to retirement, etc. paid by the employer) are also excluded. Man-hours cover man-hours paid for, during the pay period which includes the 12th of the month, for production, construction, or nonsupervisory workers. The 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. 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 unpaid 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 the 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-to-month; 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. Gross average hourly and weekly earnings Average hourly earnings are on a "gross" basis, reflecting not only changes in basic hourly and incentive wage rates but also such variable factors as premium pay for overtime and late-shift work and changes in output of workers paid on an incentive plan. Shifts in the volume of employment between relatively high-paid and low-paid work and changes in workers' earnings in individual establishments also affect the general earnings averages. Averages for groups and divisions further reflect changes in average hourly earnings for individual industries. 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 earnings series does not measure the level of total labor costs on the part of the employer since the following are excluded: Irregular bonuses, retroactive items, payments of various welfare benefits, payroll taxes paid by employers, and earnings for those employees not covered under the production-worker, construction-worker, or nonsupervisory-employee 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. Monthly variations in such factors as proportion of part-time workers, stoppages for varying causes, labor turnover during the survey period, and absenteeism for which employees are not paid may cause the average workweek to fluctuate. Hours and earnings for total private nonagricultural industries This series covers all nonagricultural industry divisions except government. The principal source of payroll data is Form BLS 790. Secondary source material such as Employment and Wages (Manpower Administration), County Business Patterns (Bureau of the Census), and additional supporting information such as The Hospital Guide, Part II, of the American Hospital Association and special studies by the National Council of Churches supplement data for certain industry groups within the service division. For a technical description of this series, see the article, "Hours and Earnings for Workers in Private Nonagricultural Industries," published in the May 1967 issue of Employment and Earnings and Monthly Report on the Labor Force. Railroad hours and earnings The figures for class I railroads (excluding switching and terminal companies) are based on monthly data summarized in the M-300 report of the Interstate Commerce Commission and relate to all employees except executives, officials, and staff assistants (ICC group I) who received pay during the month. Gross average hourly earnings are computed by dividing total compensation by total hours paid for. Average weekly hours are obtained by Long-term trends of gross average weekly earnings can be affected by structural changes in the makeup of the work force. 133 worker or nonsupervisory worker employment, and the payroll aggregates are the product of man-hour aggregates and average hourly earnings. At all higher levels of aggregation, man-hour and payroll aggregates are the sum of the component aggregates. 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 Labor turnover Spendable average weekly earnings in current dollars are obtained by deducting estimated Federal social security and income taxes from average weekly earnings. The amount of income tax liability depends on the number of dependents supported by the worker and his marital status, as well as on the level of his gross income. To reflect these variables, spendable earnings are computed for a worker with no dependents and a married worker with three dependents. The computations are based on gross average weekly earnings for all production or honsupervisory workers in the industry division excluding other income and income earned by other family members. The series reflects the spendable earnings of only those workers, with either none or three dependents, whose gross weekly pay approximates the average earnings indicated for all production and nonsupervisory workers. It does not reflect, for example, the average earnings of all workers with three dependents; such workers, in fact have higher gross average earnings than workers with no dependents. Since part-time as well as full-time workers are included, and since the proportion of part-time workers has been rising, the series understates the increase in earnings for full-time workers. As noted, "fringe benefits" are not included in the earnings. For a more complete discussion of the uses and limitations of these series, see the article by Paul M. Schwab, "Two Measures of Purchasing Power Contrasted," in the Monthly Labor Review for April 1.971. Reprints of this article are available from the Bureau of Labor Statistics. "Real" earnings are computed by dividing the current Consumer Price Index into the earnings averages for the current month. This is done for gross average weekly earnings and for spendable average weekly earnings. The level of earnings is thus adjusted for changes in purchasing power since the base period (1967). Labor turnover is the gross movement of wage and salary workers into and out of employed status with respect to individual establishments. This movement, which relates to a calendar month, is divided into two broad types: Accessions (new hires and rehires) and separations (terminations of employment initiated by either employer or employee). Each type of action is cumulated for a calendar month and expressed as a rate per 100 employees. The data relate to all employees, whether full- or part-time, permanent or temporary, including executive, office, sales, other salaried personnel, and production workers. Transfers to another establishment of the company are included, beginning with January 1959. Accessions are the total number of permanent and temporary additions to the employment roll, including both new and rehired employees. 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 other establishments of the company and employees recalled from layoff. 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. Average hourly earnings excluding overtime Average hourly earnings excluding overtime premium 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. 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 V/i times the straight-time rates. No adjustment is made for other premium payment provisions, such as holiday work, late-shiftwork and overtime rates other than time and one-half. Relationship of labor turnover to employment series Month-to-month changes in total employment in manufacturing industries reflected by labor turnover rates are not comparable with the changes shown in the 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. indexes of aggregate weekly payrolls and man-hours The indexes of aggregate weekly payrolls and man-hours are prepared by dividing the current month's aggregate by the monthly average for the 1967 period. The man-hour aggregates are the product of average weekly hours and production- 134 Job vacancies Job vacancies are the stock of unfilled job openings as of the close of the last business day of the reference month. Openings for all kinds of positions, classifications and employment, full time, part time, permanent, temporary, and seasonal are included. Excluded are jobs to be filled by recall from layoff, transfer, promotion, demotion or return from paid or unpaid leave; jobs unoccupied because of labor-management disputes; job openings for which "new" workers were already hired and scheduled to start work later; and openings with future starting dates, which are requested as a separate item. Job vacancies are defined as vacant jobs which are immediately available for filling, and for which the firm is actively trying to find or recruit workers from outside the firm. "Actively trying to find or recruit" means that the establishment is engaged in current efforts to fill the job vacancies by means of orders listed with public or private employment agencies and school placement offices; notification to labor unions and professional organizations; "help wanted" advertising (newspaper, posted notice, etc.) recruitment programs; and interview and selection of applicants. Long-term job vacancies are those current vacancies which have continued unfilled for 30 days or more. The reporting establishment is also asked to indicate the number of openings with future starting dates for which the firm is actively trying to recruit workers from outside the firm. Job openings with future starting dates may exist for such reasons as: Job unavailable until expected separation of present incumbent occurs; work will not start until some future date; new branch to be opened in the future; or anticipated increase in business. The job vacancy rate is computed by dividing the number of current job vacancies by the sum of employment plus vacancies, and multiplying that quotient by 100. Occupational classifications are made in accordance with those established in the Dictionary of Occupational Titles, Third Edition, U.S. Department of Labor, 1965. ESTIMATING METHODS The principal features of the procedure used to estimate employment for the industry statistics are (1) the use of the "link relative" technique, which is a form of ratio estimation, (2) periodic adjustment of employment levels to new benchmarks, and (3) the use of size and regional stratification. 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 nonagricultural industries, and appropriate adjustments are made as indicated. The industry estimates are currently projected from March 1970 levels. Normally, benchmark adjustments are made annually. The primary sources of benchmark information are employment data, by industry, compiled quarterly by State agencies from reports of establishments covered under State unemployment insurance laws. These tabulations, covering three-fourths of the total nonagricultural employment in the United States, are prepared under the direction of the Manpower Administration. Benchmark data for the residual are obtained from the records of the Social Security Administration, the Interstate Commerce Commission, and a number of other agencies in private industry or government. The estimates relating to the benchmark month are compared with new benchmark levels, industry by industry. If revisions are necessary, the monthly series of estimates are adjusted between the new benchmark and the preceding one, and the new benchmark for each industry is then carried forward progressively to the current month by use of the sample trends. Thus, under this procedure, the benchmark is used to establish the level of employment; the sample is used to measure the month-to-month changes in the level. A comparison of the actual amounts of revisions made in the last 3 benchmark years is shown in table E. Table E. Nonagricultural payroll employment estimates, by industry divisions, as a percentage of the benchmark for 1968-1970 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." In addition, small bias correction factors are applied to selected employment estimates each month. The size of the bias correction factors is determined from past experience. Other features of the general procedures are described later in table L, Summary of methods for computing industry statistics on employment, hours, earnings, job vacancies, and labor turnover. Further details are given in the technical notes—Chapter 2, Employment, Hours and Earnings, and Chapter 3, Labor Turnover, reprinted from the Handbook of Methods for Surveys and Studies, BLS Bulletin 1458—which are available upon request. 135 Industry division 1968 1969 1970 Total Mining Contract construction. .

Table F 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 SAMPLE Table F. Approximate size and coverage of BLS employment and payrolls sample, March 1 9 7 0 l Design The sampling plan used in the current employment statistics program is known as "sampling proportionate to average size of establishment." This design is an optimum allocation design among strata since the sampling variance is proportional to the average size of establishments. The universe of establishments is stratified first by industry and then within each industry by size of establishment in terms of employment. For each industry, the number of sample units is distributed among the size class cells on the basis of average employment per establishment in each cell. In practice, this is equivalent to distributing the predetermined total number of establishments required in the sample among the cells on the basis of the ratio of employment in each cell to total employment in the industry. Within each noncertainty stratum the sample members are selected at random. Under this type of design, large establishments fall into the sample with certainty. The size of the sample 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 large 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 small ones. Many industries in the trade and services 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 job vacancylabor turnover statistics programs, with their emphasis on producing timely data at minimum cost, a sample must be obtained which will provide coverage of a sufficiently large segment of the universe to provide reasonably reliable estimates that can be published promptly and regularly. The present sample meets these specification 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.

Coverage The BLS sample of establishment employment and payrolls is the largest monthly sampling operation in the field of Industry division Employees Number of establishments in sample 136 and earnings estimated, however, are subject to sampling errors which may be expressed as relative errors of the estimates. (A relative error is a standard error expressed as a percent of the estimate.) Relative errors for major industries are presented in table H and for individual industries with the specified number of employees in table I. The chances are about 2 out of 3 that the hours and earnings estimates from the sample would differ by a smaller percentage than the relative error from the averages that would have been obtained from a complete census. One measure of the reliability of the employment estimates for individual industries is the root-mean-square error (RMSE). The measure is the standard deviation adjusted for the bias in estimates Reliability of the employment estimates Although the relatively large size of the BLS establishment sample assures a high degree of accuracy, the estimates derived from it may differ from the figures that would be obtained if it were possible to take a complete census using the same schedules and procedures. As discussed under the previous section, a link relative technique is used to estimate employment. This requires the use of the previous month's estimate as the base in computing the current month's estimate. Thus, 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 taking account of sampling and response errors, the benchmark revision adjusts the estimates for changes in the industrial classification of individual estabblishments (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. Table H presents the average percent revisions of the six most recent benchmarks for major industry divisions. Detailed descriptions of individual benchmark revisions are available from the Bureau upon request. (RMSE=%/<Standard Deviation) 2 + (Bias) 2 ) . If the bias is small, the chances are about 2 out of 3 that an estimate from the sample would differ from its benchmark by less than the root-mean-square error. The chances are about 19 out of 20 that the difference would be less than twice the root-meansquare error. Table I.

The area statistics relate to metropolitan areas. Definitions for all areas are published each year in the issue of Employment and Earnings that contains State and area annual averages (usually the May issue). Changes in defintions 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 fig- 8 5 9 Expressed as a percent of the estimate. ures 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 unemployment insurance program. It includes some persons who are working part time who would be counted as employed in the payroll and household surveys. Excluded are persons who have exhausted their benefit rights and workers who have not earned rights to unemployment insurance. In general, excluded from coverage are those persons who worked in firms whose size excluded them from the unemployment insurance laws, as well as many persons engaged in agriculture, domestic service, unpaid family work, selected nonprofit organizations, State and local government and self-employment. Also excluded from the insured unemployment count, but included as employed in the household survey, are those persons who earned no wages during the payroll period because they were temporarily absent from their jobs due to taking time off, illness and industrial dispute as well as 138 unpaid vacations. The rate of insured unemployment is the number of insured unemployed expressed as a percent of average covered employment in a 12-month period ending 6 to 8 months prior to the week of reference. Initial claims are notices filed by those losing jobs covered by an unemployment insurance program 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 meaure, differences among the individual States. Persons wishing to receive a detailed description of the nature, sources, inclusions and exclusions, and limitations of unemployment insurance data should address their inquiries to Manpower Administration, Washington, D.C. 20210. Seasonal Adjustments SEASONAL ADJUSTMENTS Many economic statistics reflect a regularly recurring seasonal movement which can be estimated on the basis of past experience. By eliminating that part of the change which can be ascribed to usual seasonal variation, it is possible to observe the cyclical and other nonseasonal movements in the series. However, in evaluating deviations from the seasonal pattern—that is, changes in a seasonally adjusted series— it is important to note that seasonal adjustment is merely an approximation based on past experience. Seasonally adjusted estimates have a broader margin of possible error than the original data on which they are based, since they are subject not only to sampling and other errors but, in addition, are affected by the uncertainties of the seasonal adjustment process itself. Seasonally adjusted series for selected labor force and establishment data are published regularly in Employment and Earnings. The seasonal adjustment method used for these series is an adaptation of the standard ratio-to-moving average method, with a provision for "moving" adjustment factors to take account of changing seasonal patterns. A detailed description of the method is given in the booklet, The BLS Seasonal Factor Method (1966), which may be obtained from the Bureau on request. For establishment data, the seasonally adjusted series on hours, hourly earnings, 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, are obtained by multiplying average weekly hours, seasonally adjusted, by production or nonsupervisory workers, seasonally adjusted, and dividing by the 1967 base. For total private, total goods producing, total private service producing, trade, 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 1967 base. The seasonally adjusted establishment data for Federal Government are based on a series which excludes the Christmas temporary help employed by the Postal Service 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 Postal Service. Hence, it was considered desirable to exclude this group from the data upon which the seasonally adjusted series is based. The revised seasonally adjusted series for the establishment data reflect experience through May 1971. Seasonal factors to be used for current adjustment are shown in the September 1971 Employment and Earnings, and revisions will be made coincidental with the adjustment of series to new benchmark levels. For each of the three major labor force components—agricultural and nonagricultural employment and unemployment— data for four age-sex groups (male and female workers under age 20 and age 20 and over) are separately adjusted for seasonal variation and are then added to give seasonally adjusted total figures. In order to produce seasonally adjusted total employment and civilian labor force data, the appropriate series are aggregated. The seasonally adjusted rate of unemployment is derived by dividing the seasonally adjusted figure for total unemployment (the sum of four seasonally adjusted age-sex components) by the figure for the 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 1971 are published in the February 1972 Employment and Earnings. Revisions will be made annually as each additional year's data become available. The seasonal adjustment method used by BLS requires the use of at least 8 years of data, although there are special adjustment programs for as few as 3 years. Since collection of job vacancy information was begun in January 1969, the data necessary to seasonally adjust this series are not yet available. All job vacancy information published in Employment and Earnings is, therefore, on an unadjusted basis. 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, earnings, job vacancy, and labor turnover series because employment levels are used as weights. Industry data for all national series shown in this report have been adjusted to March 1970 benchmarks. Data from April 1970 forward are subject to revision at the time of the next benchmark. Beginning with the September 1971 and subsequent issues of Employment and Earnings, the national data in Sections, B, C, and D supersede those published in previous issues, as well as those appearing in the Handbook of Labor Statistics, 1971. Comparable data will be published in Employment and Earnings, Un,ted States, 1909-71, BLS Bulletin 1312-8. Beginning with the February 1972 issue of Employment and Earnings the national job vacancy data prior to the final estimate for July 1971 have been revised to reflect current benchmark levels and supercede the data published earlier in tables E-1, E-2, and E-3. 139 Table L.
