(1/) 1 .0 APRIL 1959 The employment situation showed substantial im provement in April 1959 as the number of nonfarm jobs rose by almost 500,000 over the month to 51.3 million. Significantly better-than-seasonal job gains continued to be reported in durable goods industries and in construction. mainly seasonal except for apparel, where the job drop was less than the usual amount, and rubber, where strikes affected the employment level. Sizable job gains continued to be reported both in building and in highway construction. Increases in other industries were mainly seasonal. Both the factory workweek and earnings increased over the month. The workweek in manufacturing— ^0.3 hours in April--was 2 hours longer than a year ago and at the high levels of April 1955 and 1956. Average weekly earnings rose by 63 cents over the month to $89.87 a week, an alltime high. Factory Hours and Earnings Continue Rise The workweek in manufacturing again increased slightly over the month, reaching ^0.3 hours in April. In durable goods industries a rise of two-tenths hours marked the continuation of improvement which has added an hour to weekly worktime (allowing for seasonal vari ation) since the beginning of the year. Employment Up in Metals and Machinery Industries Employment in manufacturing rose by 30>000 to 16 million in April instead of showing the usual seasonal decline for this time of year. The recovery in factory employment has accelerated during the past few months, and in April the number of tfactory jobs was 900,000 above the recession level of a year ago. Employment in manufacturing, however, was still 800,000 less than in April 1957. Factory workers averaged about 2-1/2 hours of overtime in April. Mortf than half of the 2-hour rise in the factory workweek since last April was due to in creased overtime. Hourly earnings continued to rise, moving up by 1 cent over the month to $2.23. The increase from a year ago amounted to 12 cents per hour, and was attributable both to wage rate increases and to more overtime work at premium pay. Employment in durable goods industries showed a substantially better-than-seasonal rise in April. The number of jobs in this sector increased by 75,000 over the month, with significant gains in primary and fabri cated metals and in the machinery industries. An in crease of 25,000 in the primary metals industry contin ued the recent pattern of sharp employment recovery in ftteel. Job changes in nondurable goods industries were Higher hourly earnings and the longer workweek brought weekly earnings in manufacturing to a new record of $89.87 in April, up 63 cents over the month. Weekly earnings were more than $9 above a year ago, mainly due to increased hours and overtime pay. iv 1 Historical Employment Data Table A -l: Employees in nonagricultural establishments, by industry division (In thousands) Year TOTAL and m o n t h Annual average: 191 9 . 192 0 . 1921 ........... , 1922........... , 1923........... . 192k ........... . 192 5 192 6 . 192 7 192 8 192 193 193 193 193 193 193 193 193 193 26,829 27,088 24 ,125 25,569 28,128 27,770 28,505 29,539 29,691 29,710 *0,037 41,287 * 3,*62 845 916 1,150 1,294 1,790 2,170 1,567 1,094 1,132 10,078 10,780 12,97* 15,051 17,381 17,111 15,302 2,918 3,013 3,248 3,433 3,619 3,798 3,872 4,023 4,188 4,l4l 6,612 947 983 917 883 826 852 943 3,949 3,977 4,166 *,185 *,881 *,009 4,068 *,l6l *,151 3,903 9,513 9,645 1,145 1,112 1,661 1,982 l*,46l 15,290 15,321 2,169 *3,315 **,738 *7,3*7 48,303 49,681 48,431 918 889 916 885 2,165 2,333 2,603 2.634 14,178 14,967 2,622 17,238 50,5*3 April ....

EXPLANATORY NOTES INTRODUCTION The statistics for nonfarm industries presented in this monthly report are part of the broad program of the Bureau of Labor Statistics to provide timely, com prehensive, accurate, and detailed information for the use of businessmen, government officials, legislators, labor unions, research workers, and the general public. The statistics are an integral part of the Federal sta tistical system, and are considered basic indicators of the state of the Nation*s economy. They are widely used in following and interpreting business develop ments and in making decisions in such fields as labormanagement negotiations, marketing, personnel, plant location, and government policy. In addition, Govern ment agencies use the data in this report to compile official indexes of production, labor productivity, and national income. ESTABLISHMENT REPORTS: a. Collection The employment statistics program, which is based on establishment payroll reports, provides current data for both full- and part-time workers on payrolls of nonagricultural establishments (see glossary for defi nition, p. 7-E) during a specified period each month. The BLS uses two "shuttle" schedules for this program, the BLS Form 790 (for employment, payroll, and manhours data) and the Form 1219 (for labor turnover data). The shuttle schedule, used by BLS since 1930, is de signed to assist firms to report consistently, accu rately, and with a minimum of cost. The questionnaire provides space for the establishment to report for each month of the current calendar year; in this way, the employer uses the same schedule for the entire year. Under a cooperative arrangement with the BLS, State agencies mail the forms to the establishments and exam ine the returns for consistency, accuracy, and com pleteness. The States use the information to prepare State and area series and then send the data to the BLS Division of Manpower and Employment Statistics for use in preparing the national series. b. Industrial Classification Establishments are classified into industries on the basis of their principal product or activity determined from information on annual sales volume. This informa tion is collected each year on a product supplement to the monthly 790 or 1219 report. The supplement provides for reporting the percentage of total sales or receipts represented by each product or activity. In the case of an establishment making more than one product or engag ing in more than one activity, the entire employment of the unit is included under the industry indicated by the most important product or activity. Prior to publication of State and area data for January 1959, all national, State, and area employment, hours, earnings, and labor turnover series were classi fied in accordance with the following documents: (1 ) For manufacturing, Standard Industrial Classification Manual, Volume I, Bureau of the Budget, November 19*5; (2) for nonmanufacturing industries, Industrial Classi fication Code, Federal Security Agency, Social Security Board, 1942. Beginning with January 1959, State and area series are classified in accordance with the revised Standard Industrial Classification Manual published by the Bu reau of the Budget in 1957* The national industry sta tistics will be converted to the 1957 SIC in late i960. c. Coverage Monthly reports on employment and, for most indus tries, payroll and man-hours are obtained from approx imately 180,000 establishments. The table below shows the approximate proportion of total employment in each industry division covered by the group of establish ments furnishing monthly employment data.

Therefore, hours and earnings estimates may be based on a slightly smaller sample than employment estimates. 2/ 2,300 reports covering 1 ,*30,000 employees, col lected through the BLS-State cooperating program, are used in preparing State and area estimates. Labor turnover reports are received from approxi mately 10,500 cooperating establishments in the 1-E manufacturing, mining, and communication industries (see table below). The definition of manufacturing used in the turnover series is not as extensive as in the BLS series on employment and hours and earnings because of the exclusion of the following major industries from the labor turnover sample: Printing, publishing, and allied industries (since April 19*3); canning and preserving fruits, vegetables, and sea foods; women's and misses' outerwear; and fertilizer.

DEFINITIONS AND ESTIMATING METHODS: A-Employment Definition Employment data for all except Federal Government establishments refer to persons who worked during, or received pay for, any part of the pay period ending nearest the 15th of the month. For Federal Government establishments current data generally refer to persons who worked on, or received pay for, the last day of the month. defined as nonagricultural, and appropriate adjustments made as indicated by the total counts or benchmarks. The comparison made for the first 3 months of 1957 re sulted in changes amounting to 0.5 percent of all nonagricultural employment, identical with the extent of the adjustment to the first quarter 1956 benchmark. The changes were less than 0.5 percent for 3 of the 8 major industry divisions; under 2 percent for 2 other divisions; and 3 .2 , 3 .3 , and 6 .* percent for the re maining 3 divisions. The manufacturing total was changed by only 0.1 percent for the second successive year. Within manufacturing, the benchmark and estimate differed by 1.0 percent or less in 39 of the 132 indi vidual industries, *1 industries were adjusted by 1.1 to 2.5 percent, and an additional 27 industries dif fered by 2.6-5 .O percent. One significant cause of differences between the benchmark and estimate is the change in industrial classification of individual firms, which is usually not reflected in BLS estimates until they are adjusted to new benchmarks. Other causes are sampling and response errors. The basic sources of benchmark information are the quarterly tabulations of tirployment data, by industry, compiled by State agencies from reports of establish ments covered under State unemployment insurance laws. Supplementary tabulations prepared by the U. S. Bureau of Old Age, Survivors, and Disability Insurance are used for the group of establishments exempt from State unemployment insurance laws because of their small size. Benchmarks for industries wholly or partly ex cluded from the unemployment insurance laws are de rived from a variety of other sources. The BLS estimates relating to the benchmark quarter are compared with the new benchmark levels, in dustry by industry. Where revisions are necessary, the monthly estimates are adjusted between the new bench mark and the preceding one. Following revision for these intermediate periods, the industry data from the most recent benchmark are projected to the current month by use of the sample trends. Under this proced ure, the benchmark is used to establish the level of employment while the sample is used to measure the month-to-month changes in the level. Estimating Method Persons on an establishment payroll who are on paid sick leave (when pay is received directly from the firm), paid holiday, or paid vacation, or who work during a part of the specified pay period and are unemployed or on strike during the other part of the period are counted as employed. Persons are not considerered employed who are laid off or are on leave without pay, who are on strike for the entire period, or who are hired but do not report to work during the period. Proprietors, the self-employed, unpaid family workers, farm workers, and domestic workers in households are also excluded. Government employment covers only civilian employees; Federal military person nel are shown separately, but their number is excluded from total nonagricultural employment. With respect to employment in educational institu tions (private and governmental), BLS considers regular full-time teachers to be employed during the summer vacation period whether or not they are specifically paid in those months. Benchmark Data Employment estimates are periodically compared with complete counts of employment in the various industries 2-E The estimating procedure for industries for which data on both all employees and production or nonsupervisory workers are published is outlined below; the first step under this method is also used for indus tries for which only figures on all employees are published. The first step is to compute total employment (all employees) in the industry for the month following the benchmark period. The all-employee total for the last benchmark month (e.g., March) is multiplied by the per cent change of total employment over the month for the group of establishments reporting for both March and April. Thus, if firms in the BLS sample for an indus try report 30,000 employees in March and 31,200 in April, April employment is 10* percent (31,200 divided by 30,000) of March employment. If the all-employee benchmark in March is *0,000, the all-employee total in April would be 10* percent of *0,000 or *1,600. The second step is to compute the production- or nonsupervisory-worker total for the industry. The all employee total for the month is multiplied by the ratio of production or nonsupervisory workers to all employees. This ratio is computed from establishment reports in the monthly sample. Thus, if the firms in the previous example report 24,960 production workers and a total of 31,200 employees in April, the ratio of production workers to all employees would be .80 (24,960 divided by 31,200). The production-worker total in April would be 33,280 (41,600 multiplied by .80 ). Figures for subsequent months are computed by carry ing forward the totals for the previous month according to the method described above. The number of women employees in manufacturing, pub lished quarterly, is computed by multiplying the all employee estimate for the i. ustry by the ratio of women to all employees as reported in the industry sample. Employme Adjusted for Seasonal Variation Employment series for many industries reflect a reg ularly recurring seasonal movement which can be measured on the basis of past experience. By eliminating that part of the change in employment which can be ascribed to usual seasonal variation, it is possible to clarify the cyclical and other nonseasonal movements in the series. Adjusted employment aggregates are shown and also indexes (19*7-49 * 100) derived from these aggre gates. The indexes have the additional advantage of comparing the current seasonally adjusted employment level with average employment in the base period. B-Labor Turnover Definition "Labor turnover,”as used in the BLS program, re fers to the gross movement of wage and salary workers into and out of employment status with respect to in dividual establishments during a calendar month. This movement 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 em ployees. All employees, including executive, office, sales, other salaried personnel, and production workers, are covered by both the turnover movements and the employment base used in computing labor turn over rates. All groups of employees--full- and. parttime, permanent, and temporary— are included. Method of Computation To compute turnover rates for individual indus tries, the total number of each type of action (acces sions, quits, etc.) reported for a calendar month by the sample establishments in each industry is first divided by the total number of employees reported by these establishments, who worked during, or received pay for, any part of the pay period ending nearest the 15th of that month. The result is multiplied by 100 to obtain the turnover rate. Comparability with Other Employment Estimates Employment data published by other government and private agencies may differ from BLS employment statis tics because of differences in definition, sources of information, methods of collection, classification, and estimation. BLS monthly figures are not directly com parable, for example, with the estimates of the Census Monthly Report on the Labor Force (MRLF). Census data are obtained by personal interviews with individual mem bers of a small sample of households and are designed to provide information on the work status of the whole pop ulation, classified by their demographic characteris tics. The BLS, on the other hand, obtains data by mail questionnaire which are based on the payroll records of business units, and prepares detailed statistics on the industrial and geographic distribution of employment and on hours of work and earnings. Since BLS employment figures are derived from estab lishment payroll records, persons who worked in more than one establishment during the reporting period will be counted more than once in the BLS series. By defini tion, proprietors, self-employed persons, domestic ser vants, and unpaid family workers are excluded from the BLS but not the MRLF series. Employment estimates compiled by the Bureau of the Census from its censuses and/or annual sample surveys of manufacturing establishments also differ from BLS em ployment statistics. Among the important reasons for lack of comparability are differences in industries cov ered, in the business units considered parts of an establishment, and in the industrial classification of establishments. Similar differences exist between the BLS data and those in County Business Patterns published jointly by the U. S. Department of Commerce and the U. S. Department of Health, Education, and Welfare. For example, in an industry sample, the total num ber of employees who worked during, or received pay for, the week of January 12-18 was reported as 25,498. During the period January 1-31 a total of 284 employees in all reporting firms quit. The quit rate for the industry is: 284 x 100 * 1.1 25,498 To compute turnover rates for broader industrial categories, the rates for the component industries are weighted by the estimated employment. Separate turnover rates for men and women are pub lished quarterly for 1 month in each quarter. Only accessions, quits, and total separations are published. These rates are computed in the same manner as the all-employee rates; for example, the quit rate for women is obtained from an industry sample by dividing the number of women who quit during the month by the number of women employees reported. Average monthly turnover rates for the year for all employees are computed by dividing the sum of the monthly rates by 12 . Comparability with Earlier Data Labor turnover rates are available on a comparable basis from January 1930 for manufacturing as a whole and from 1943 for two coal mining and two communica tion industries. Rates for many individual industries and industry groups for the period prior to January 1950 are not comparable with those for the subsequent period because of a revision which involved (1 ) the adoption of the Standard Industrial Classification 3-E (19*5 ) code structure for manufacturing industries, and (2 ) the introduction of weighting in the computation of industry-group rates. Comparability with Employment Series Month-to-month changes in total employment in manu facturing 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, for the most part, refer to a 1 week pay period ending nearest the 15th of the month. (2) The turnover sample excludes certain indus tries (see under coverage, p. 2-E). (3) Plant8 on strike are not included in the turnover computations beginning with the month the strike starts through the month the workers return; the influence of such stoppages is reflected, however, in the employment figures. C-Hours and Earnings Definitions of production workers, nonsupervisory employees, payrolls, and man-hours from which hours and earnings data are derived are included in the glossary, page 7-E. Methods used to compute hours and earnings averages are described in summary of methods for comput ing national statistics, page 6-E. Gross Average Hourly and Weekly Earnings Average hourly earnings for manufacturing and non manufacturing industries are on a "gross" basis, i.e., they reflect not only changes in basic hourly and incen tive wage rate8, but also such variable factors as pre mium pay for overtime and late-shift work, and changes in output of workers paid on an incentive basis. Employment shifts between relatively high-paid and lowpaid 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 refer to 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. However, the average earnings series does not measure the level of total labor costs on the part of the employer, since the fol lowing are excluded: Irregular bonuses, retroactive items, payments of various welfare benefits, payroll taxes paid by employers, and earnings for those employees not covered under the production-worker or nonsupervisory-employee definitions. Gross average 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 average hours worked or paid for, and is somewhat different from *-E standard or scheduled hours. Normally, such factors as absenteeism, labor turnover, part-time work, and stop pages 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 reg ular hours and for which premium payments were made. If an employee works on a paid holiday at regular rates, receiving as total compensation his holiday pay plus straight-time pay for hours worked that day, no over time hours would be reported. Since overtime hours are premium hours by defini tion, the gross weekly hours and overtime hours do not necessarily move in the same direction from month to month; for example, premiums may be paid for hours in excess of the straight-time workday although less than a full week is worked. Diverse trends on the industrygroup level may also be caused by a marked change in gross hours for a component industry where little or no overtime was worked in both the previous and current months. In addition, such factors as stoppages, ab senteeism, and labor turnover may not have the same in fluence on overtime hours as on gross hours. Spendable Average Weekly Earnings Spendable average weekly earnings in current dollars are obtained by deducting Federal social secu rity and income taxes from gross weekly earnings. The amount of income tax liability depends on the number of dependents supported by the worker, as well as on the level of his gross income. To reflect these variables, spendable earnings have been computed for two types of income receivers: (1) A worker with no dependents; and (2 ) a worker with three dependents. The computations of spendable earnings for both the production or construction worker with no dependents and the worker with thr*e dependents are based on the gross average weekly earnings for all such workers in manufacturing, mining, or contract construction indus tries without regard to marital status, family compo sition, and total family income. Gross and spendable weekly earnings in 19*7-*9 dol lars represent an approximate measure of changes in "real" earnings. "Real" earnings are computed by di viding the current Consumer Price Index into the earn ings average for the current month. The resulting level of earnings expressed in 19*7-*9 dollars is thus adjusted for changes in purchasing power since that base period. Average Hourly Earnings, Excluding Overtime, of Production Workers in Manufacturing Average hourly earnings, excluding premium overtime pay, are computed by dividing the total productionworker payroll for the industry group by the sum of total production-worker man-hours and one-half of total overtime man-hours. Prior to January 1956, data were based on the application of adjustment factors to gross average hourly earnings (as described in the Monthly Labor Review, May 1950, PP* 537-5*0). Both methods eliminate only the earnings due to overtime paid for at one and one-half times the straight-time rates. No ad justment is made for other premium payment provisions, data for manufacturing and other nonmanufacturing in dustries are based upon reports to the ELS which gener ally represent 1 weekly pay period ending nearest the 15th of the month, the data for railroad employees are not strictly comparable with other industry information shown in this publication. for example— 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 1947-49 period. The man-hour aggregates represent 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. Manhours and payrolls are defined in the glossary, page 7-E. STATISTICS FOR STATES AND AREAS State and area data are collected and prepared by State agencies in cooperation with the BLS. These sta tistics are based on the same establishment reports used by the BLS for preparing national estimates. State em ployment series are adjusted to benchmark data from State unemployment insurance agencies and the Bureau of Old Age, Survivors, and Disability Insurance. The sum of the State figures may differ slightly from the offi cial U. S. totals prepared by the BLS because of differ ences in the timing of benchmark adjustments and slightly varying methods of computation. Railroad Hours and Earnings The figures for Class I railroads (excluding switch ing and terminal companies) are based upon monthly data summarized in the M-300 report of the Interstate Commerce Commission and relate to all employees who re ceived pay during the month, except executives, offi cials, and staff assistants (ICC Group I). Gross aver age hourly earnings are computed by dividing total com pensation 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 em ployees, as defined above. Gross average weekly earn ings are derived by multiplying average weekly hours by average hourly earnings. Because hours and earnings NOTE: of the series— Beginning with data for January 1959, State and area series are classified in accordance with the revised Standard Industrial Classification Manual published by the Bureau of the Budget in 1957. Previously, the clas sification used was the same as that for the national series (see Industrial Classification, page 1-E). Addi tional industry detail may be obtained from the coopera ting State agencies listed on the inside back cover. Additional information concerning the preparation employment, hours, earnings, and labor turnover concepts and scope, survey methods, and reliability and limitations---is contained in technical notes for each of these series, available from BLS free of charge. of this information as well as similar material For all for other BLS statistics, see Techniques of Preparing Major BLS Statis tical Series, BLS Bull. 1168, December 1954.
