These adjustments may also affect the hours and earnings series because employment levels are used as weights. All industry statistics after March 1959^ the present benchmark date, are therefore subject to revision. Beginning with November 1961 and subsequent issues of Employment and Earninps, data in tables B-l through B-I4, (T^l through C-7, and D-l through D-3 are based on the 1957 Standard Industrial Classification and a March 1959 benchmark. Therefore, issues of Employment and Earnings prior to November 1961 cannot be used in conjunction with national industry data now shown in sections B, C, and D. Comparable data for prior periods are published in Employment and Earnings Statistics for nited States, 190960, _ which may be purchased from the Supe uperintendent of Documents for 03. For an individual industry, earlier data may be obtained upon request to the Bureau. When industry data are again adjusted to new benchmarks, another edition of Employment and Earnings Statistics for the United States wTTT be issued containing the revised data extending from April 1959 forward to a current date, as well as the prior historical statistics. 11 12 19 20 State and Area Data B-5: Employees in nonagricultural establishments, by industry division and State B-6: Employees in nonagricultural establishments for selected areas, by industry division • 26 29 Seetion C-Industry Hours and Earnings National Data C-l: Gross hours and earnings of production workers in manufacturing, 1919 to date C-2: Gross hours and earnings of production workers in manufacturing, by major industry group C-3: Average hourly earnings excluding overtime of production workers in manufacturing, by major industry group C-k: Average weekly hours, seasonally adjusted, of production workers in selected industries C-5: Indexes of aggregate weekly man-hours and payrolls in industrial and construction activities C-6: Gross and spendable average weekly earnings in selected industries, in current and 1957-59 dollars C-7: Gross hours and earnings of production workers, by industry 35 36 36 37 38 38 39 State and Area Data C-8: Gross hours and earnings of production workers in manufacturing, by State and selected areas h'p Section D-Labor Turnover National Data D-l: Labor turnover rates in manufacturing, 1952 to date D-2: Labor turnover rates, by industry D-3: Labor turnover rates in manufacturing, by sex and major industry group l/.. 49 50 $k State and Area Data D-h: Labor turnover rates in manufacturing for selected States and areas Explanatory Notes BLS Regional Offices Cooperating State Agencies. 55 I-E IO-E inside back cover 1/ Quarterly data included in February, May, August, and November issues. Prepared under the supervision of Robert M. Shaw EMPLOYMENT AND UNEMPLOYMENT HIGHLIGHTS April 1962 THE MONTHLY REPORT ON THE LABOR FORCE; APRIL 1962 Note: Beginning with the figures for April 1962, information from the I960 Census of Population replaces that from the 1950 Census in the estimation procedures for the labor force survey. The monthly and annual change s in the labor force data quoted in this release are based on the old April figures, which are comparable with previously published data. The differences between the old and new data are small (see page xiv). Factory employment and hours of work showed continued strong improvement in April. With most manufacturing industries reporting better-than-seasonal developments during the month, jobs in this sector rose by 80, 000 instead of showing the small decline usual at this time of year. Construction employment expanded sharply during the month after the usual spring pickup had been delayed by bad weather in March. Trade employment continued to show better-thanseasonal improvement for the fourth consecutive month. Altogether, nonfarm payroll employment at 54. 7 million was up 675, 000 from March to April, or a quarter of a million more than seasonally. With the gains of the past few months, manufacturing employment has returned to within 200, 000 of the level in May I960, the prerecession peak in general business activity, while trade is now significantly above that level. The factory workweek continued to improve in April, and at 40. 4 hours was at a level which has not been exceeded for this month since 1953. Overtime hours in manufacturing edged up to 2. 7 hours, the highest level for April since data became available in 1956. As announced on May 9, unemployment declined seasonally by 400, 000 in April, and at 3. 9 million was 1. 0 million lower than a year earlier. The seasonally adjusted rate of unemployment of 5. 5 percent was virtually unchanged from the preceding 2 months but was well below the 6. 9 percent of a year earlier. State insured unemployment declined by 400, 000 in mid-April to 1. 9 million. Total employment moved seasonally higher by 700, 000 to 66. 8 million in April. Nonagricultural employment (including the self-employed, unpaid family workers, and domestics) rose by 450, 000 to a record for April of 61.9 million, an increase over the year of 1. 2 million. Agricultural employment increased by 250, 000 from March and was virtually the same as a year earlier in April at 5. 0 million. The number of workers on part time for economic reasons declined by 100, 000, somewhat more than seasonal, to 2. 2 million in April, some 800, 000 less than at the same time in 1961. The total labor force, including the Armed Forces, rose about seasonally again in April to 73. 7 million, and was 650, 000 higher than a year earlier. iii TRENDS IN EMPLOYMENT AND UNEMPLOYMENT July 1948 to date (Actual and seasonally adjusted) MILLIONS OF PERSONS 72 MILLIONS OF PERSONS 72 Total Civilian Employment 70 68 66 66 SEASONALLY - ADJUSTED 64 64 62 60 62 60 — 58 58 56 56 ot innnmf) n 8 Unemployment TOTAL , ACTUAL TOTAL SEASONALLY ADJUSTED ACTUAL Shaded area represents number receiving temporary extended unemployment benefits.

Beginning in January 1960. data include Alaska and Hawaii Nonfarm Payroll Employment Nonfarm payroll employment rose sharply by 675, 000 to an April record of 54. 7 million. The total was 1. 5 million higher than the depressed level of a year ago and 530, 000 higher (seasonally adjusted) than before the beginning of the business downturn in May I960. Better-than.-seasonal gains were widespread in manufacturing industries, while construction employment regained its previous month1 s loss. Smaller increases, which were also better than seasonal, occurred in trade, transportation and public utilities, and State and local government. Employment in manufacturing rose by 80, 000 to 16. 6 million; it usually declines in April. The gains were spread among virtually every manufacturing industry, in both consumer and producer goods. Employment in transportation equipment, which usually shows a seasonal decline in April, held its employment level as automobile sales reached their highest point since September 1955. The fabricated metals, electrical equipment, and machinery industries increased significantly on a seasonally adjusted basis, as did primary metals and the stone, clay, and glass industries. In the soft-goods manufacturing industries, the greatest strength was shown in apparel where jobs in April were cut substantially less than in the same month in previous years. The largest part of the April job increase was seasonal and occurred in other than manufacturing industries. The increase of 240,000 in construction brought seasonally adjusted employment up to the level of February 1962 and December 1961 after weather affected declines in January and March 1962. The job pickup in transportation and public utilities is the third consecutive monthly increase whereas there had been virtually no improvement during the last half of 1961 and a decline at the turn of the year. Trade has picked up 100, 000 workers (seasonally adjusted) since January, and has now risen significantly beyond its May I960 level for the first time. Half of the 1. 6 million jobs gained during the recovery period from February 1961 have been in manufacturing, concentrated in the five durable goods industries which accounted for the major part of the recession loss. These industries (primary metals, fabricated metals, electrical equipment, transportation equipment, and machinery) have increased an average of 10 percent over their recession lows, although machinery has shown much less of a gain than the others. In nondurable goods employment, the increases averaged only 2-1/2 percent during the upswing, but these industries suffered far less loss during the recession. Electrical equipment alone among the major manufacturing industries has risen substantially beyond prerecession levels after allowance for seasonal change. (See Table A.) The other half of the 1. 6 million job increase since February 1961 was in trade, service, government, and finance. Among these, only trade shows any decline during the recession, and this decline was small. On the other hand, employment in service and government continued steadily upward without interruption during the recession, as it had in these industries throughout the postwar period. In other nonmanufacturing industries, mining and construction are the only ones showing losses (totaling 75,000) since the latest recession low.

Increases in the number of nonproduction workers have contributed to the gains in manufacturing employment in recent months. The employment of these workers, who perform the clerical, administrative, sales, and professional work in manufacturing, tended to remain fairly steady at 4O 2 million during the period of recession (when hundreds of thousands of production workers were being laid off) and during the early period of recovery. Since the fall of 1961, however, there has been a resumption of growth in their employment; since September nonproduction workers have contributed about one-sixth of the gain in manufacturing employment on a seasonally adjusted basis.

Better-than-seasonal workweek developments were registered by every major industry except lumber, which reported no change after reaching a very high level in March. Notable gains in the durables sector were registered in fabricated metals, electrical equipment, transportation equipment, and furniture. In the soft-goods sector, apparel and textiles shows the most significant improvement. Overtime hours averaged 2. 7 in April compared to 2. 6 in March, and 2. 5 in February. A year ago, factory employees worked 2.1 hours overtime. At $96. 56, weekly earnings of manufacturing production workers increased 65 1960 1961 19d2 cents from March to April, regaining the all-time high level of December 1961. Compared to a year ago, weekly earnings are $5. 78 or 6-1/2 percent higher. Hourly earnings at $2. 39 are 1 cent higher than last month and 8 cents higher than April 1961. 01 38.0 Total Employment Total employment continued its regular spring expansion with a seasonal increase of 700, 000 to an April record of 66. 8 million. Total nonagricultural employment (including the self-employed, unpaid family workers and domestics) rose seasonally by 450, 000 between March andApril, and at 61. 9 million, was also at a record high for April. Agricultural employment rose by 250, 000 over the month to 5. 0 million. This increase was less than usual for April. Agricultural employment was at the same level as a year ago, but the number of farm workers in April 1961 was held down by adverse weather. 640858 O - 6 2 - 2 (X SELECTED MEASURES OF UNEMPLOYMENT AND PART-TIME EMPLOYMENT 1955 to date (Seasonally adjusted) Percent 10.0 Percent 10.0 Labor force time lost through unemployment and part-time work 9.0 9.0 A /I 8.0 7.0 8.0 7.0 6.0 6.0 5.0 5.0 4.0 4.0 .

Man-hours lost are computed by assuming the unemployed lost 37.5 hours a week, and that those on part time for economic reasons lost the difference between 37.5 and the time they actually worked. Man-hours potentially available (the base for the rate) are obtained by adding: Man—hours actually worked Man-hours that could have been worked by employed persons with a job but not at work, assuming a 37.5 hour workweek (3) Man-hours l o s t .

NOTE* For a more detailed discussion of the time-lost measure, see Technical Note on *Some -Alternative Indexes of Unemployment11 in the Monthly Labor Review, February 1962, pp*-i67 ff« Full- and Part-time Employment, The number of nonfarm workers on full-time schedules rose seasonally in April by 550,000 to 50. 8 million, with virtually all of the increase occurring among men. The 35. 2 million men with full-time jobs this April also accounted for nearly all the 1. 3 million increase in full-time work since April a year ago; however, relatively few women had been cut back from full- to part-time work during the recession. The number of nonfarm workers on part time for economic reasons dropped by 100, 000 after increasing in both February and March. At 2. 2 million in April, the number of such part-time workers was at about its January level and about 800,000 below its year-ago level. The over-the-year decline was almost evenly divided between persons who had been cut back from full-time to part-time work and persons usually working part time because full-time work was not available. (See Table B.) Characteristics of the Unemployed Age and Sex. Mainly because of the spring pickup in outdoor activities, the number of unemployed adult men fell seasonally in April by 350, 000, accounting for four-fifths of the decline in total unemployment. After seasonal adjustment, however, their unemployment rate remained virtually unchanged over the month at 4. 6 percent. Following a substantial decline between August 1961 and January 1962, the unemployment rate for adult men has shown no further improvement. Nevertheless, at 2. 1 million this April, the number of unemployed adult men was 650, 000 less than in April 1961 and their unemployment rate was well below the 6. 0 percent of a year ago. No significant changes have occurred recently in unemployment among women and teenagers. However, in both number and rate, unemployment among adult women was considerably below the high levels of a year ago. At 750, 000, the number of unemployed 14 to 19 year-olds accounted for less than one-fifth of total unemployment, but their rate of unemployment was two and one-half times greater than the overall rate. There was no change in the number of unemployed teenagers over the year. Duration of Unemployment. Virtually all of the reduction in unemployment was among persons who had been jobless for less than 15 weeks. Their number fell seasonally in April by 400, 000 to 2. 5 million with persons out of work for more than 4 weeks accounting for most of the decline. The number of persons unemployed for more than 15 weeks was unchanged at 1. 5 million, but no seasonal change was expected. Among those looking for work for 15 weeks or longer were 700,000 persons who had been looking for work for over 26 weeks, about the same number as in March. The number of very long-term unemployed was 200, 000 below its year-ago level. While there has been virtually no change in the number of very long-term unemployed since the beginning of the year, this group was increasing steadily throughout the first half of 1961, reaching a recession high of about 1 million in July, several months after the trough in economic activity. After 14 months of recovery the number of very long-term jobless is 300, 000 higher than its prerecession levels. Although this pattern of lagging recovery also followed the 1958 trough in business activity, very long-term unemployment is currently some 450, 000 higher than in the months prior to the 1957-58 recession. Xi Industry of Last Job. Unemployment rates in durable and nondurable goods manufacturing, mining, and construction were below their year-ago level this April, and in durable goods manufacturing they were also below the level in April I960 before the recession began. In transportation, trade, and finance and service, unemployment rates while down over the year, were above those of April I960. In every major industry group, unemployment rates were still well above those registered under the high employment conditions of April 19.57. New Workers. Among the unemployed in April were 450, 000 persons looking for their first jobs, about the same number as a year ago. Virtually all of these inexperienced unemployed were under 25 years of age and four-fifths of them were between 14 and 19 years of age. Over the past 4 years, the total number of 14-24 year-olds in the population has increased by 17 percent. Partly because of the tendency for young people to remain in school longer, the number of 14-24 year-olds in the labor force has increased by only 12 percent. In contrast, the number of unemployed young people seeking their first job has increased by 30 percent, two and one-half times greater than the rate of their labor force increase. All of this increase in the inexperienced unemployed has been among teenagers; there has even been a slight decline in the number of unemployed new workers 20 years of age and over. In April 1958, the trough of the 1958 recession, new workers accounted for 7 percent of the total unemployed. This April, they accounted for 12 percent. The increase in the number of unemployed new workers has been greatest at the two extremes in terms of duration of unemployment. Both the very short-term unemployed (l to 4 weeks) and the very long-term unemployed (27 weeks or more) have increased by 50 percent over the past 4 years. In April 1962, nearly half of the inexperienced unemployed had been looking for work for less than a month, but 1 out of every 6 had been searching for his first job for over half a year. Insured Unemployment The number of insured jobless under State programs dropped by nearly one-fifth (400, 000) to 1. 9 million between March and April. Preliminary data indicate that the number of persons exhausting their regular State benefits edged down from 170, 000 in March to an estimated 165, 000 in April. In addition to the insured unemployed under the regular State programs, some 234, 000 persons who had exhausted their State benefit rights were insured under the Temporary Extended Unemployment Compensation program (TEC) in April. In March the total was 310,000. The sharp over-the-mo nth decline was due to the "phase-out" provision of the TEC Act. Under this provision, eligibility for TEC benefits after March 31 is limited to qualified claimants who had been in compensable status under the TEC program on or before that date. All but three States reported a decline in insured unemployment under the regular State programs over the month. The reductions amounted to 25, 000 or more in five States--California (51, 000), New York (43, 000), Pennsylvania (34, 000), Michigan (26, 000), and Illinois (25, 000). A large part of these declines reflected continuing seasonal expansions in outdoor work, and a pre-Easter pickup in trade. California also noted recalls in food processing and in fabricated metals plants, while Michigan reported increased activity in the auto industry. xii The national rate of insured unemployment (not seasonally adjusted) was 4. 6 percent in April compared with 5. 6 percent in March and 7. 0 percent a year ago. Five States--Alaska, Arkansas, Maine, North Dakota, and West Virginia-had rates in excess of 7. 0 percent this April. However, the rates in all of these States except Maine were below those for March. In Maine, the start of a new benefit year on April 1 caused the rate to rise. Among the larger industrial States, the rates were between 5. 0 and 6. 0 percent in California, Massachusetts, Michigan, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania, and below 4. 0 percent in Illinois, Indiana, Texas, and Wisconsin. Labor Force The labor month by 300,000 to employment. About April 1961 and over force (including the Armed Forces) rose seasonally over the 73.7 million, despite the small increase in agricultural 650,000 workers have been added to the labor force since 1. 5 million workers since April I960.

The effects of the change are shown in the tables on the following pages presenting data on population and employment status on both the old and the new basis for April. Most of the differences between the old and the new labor force estimates are small and well within the normal range of sampling error. Population information from the decennial census is used in two stages of the estimation procedure for the sample survey in order to improve the reliability of the results. Since labor force activity is highly correlated with such characteristics as age, color, urban-rural residence, and sex, the sampling variability of the estimates can be reduced if the sample population is brought into line with the known distributions of the total population by these characteristics. (See U. S. Bureau of the Census, Current Population Reports, "Concepts and Methods Used in the Current Employment and Unemployment Statistics Prepared by the Bureau of the Census,11 Series P. 23, No. 5^for detailed explanation.) The first stage in the estimation process takes into account differences between the color and urban-rural residence distribution of the population in the sample counties and that of the total population in each of the four major regions of the country at the time of the census. These adjustment ratios remain constant until another census is taken or until changes are made in the counties in the sample. The second stage adjustment takes account of current differences between the distribution of the sample population by age, color, and sex and that of the Nation as a whole. Each month, the Census Bureau prepares current independent estimates of the noninstitutional population by age, color, and sex by carrying forward the most recent census data to take account of the subsequent aging of the population, mortality, and migration between the United States and other countries. These are used as controls for the sample results for the month. In effect, the sample returns determine the percentage of the population within each age-colorsex group which is employed, unemployed, etc. The absolute numbers are derived by applying these percentages to the independent population figures. The timing of the change-over to the I960 Census material was determined by the date of completion of the tabulations of the necessary Census information for all counties. These results became available in time for the processing of the April 1962 survey. In order to measure the effect of the change to 1960 Census data, the survey results were also tabulated using 1950 data. Since the new population figures show a somewhat different age distribution than the old, the age distribution of the labor force and the employed will differ slightly. However, there is no effect on percent distributions within age groups, or on labor force or unemployment rates by age. The effect on comparability with data prior to April 1962 is so minor that no revisions of earlier statistics will be made. Users who wish to make allowances can do so on the basis of the data shown in the following tables. xiv Civilian Noninstitutional Population and Labor Force, by Age and Sex, April 1962 On New and Old Basis (Thousands of persons 14 years of age and over) Civilian Labor Force Civilian No institutional Population Age and sex Net Net New1 Old* NewJ Old* difference difference 126,702 126,756 -54 70,769 70,979 -210 60,193 60,121 72 46,717 46,790 -73 6,260 14 to 17years 14 and 15 years, 3,552 16 and 17 years. 2,708 18 to 24years 7,201 18 and 19 years, 2,376 20 to 24 years... 4,825 25 to 34years 10,170 25 to 29 years, 4,866 30 to 34 years... 5,304 35 to 44years 11,388 35 to 39 years... 5,775 40 to 44 years... 5,613 45 to 54years 10,118 45 to 49 years... 5,313 50 to 54 years. 4,805 55 to 64years 7,587 55 to 59 years... 4,158 60 to 64. years... 3,429 65 years and over..... 7,468 65 to 69 years... 2,838 70 years and ovei 4,630 6,412 3,661 2,751 7,329 2,423 4,906 10,280 4,916 5,364 11,280 5,719 5,561 10,175 5,306 4,869 7,565 4,121 3,444 7,080 2,744 4,336 -152 -109 -43 -128 -47 -81 -110 -50 -60 108 56 52 -57 7 -64 22 37 -15 388 94 294 1,614 591 1,023 5,566 1,500 4,066 9,867 4,715 5,152 11,118 5,647 5,471 9,649 5,110 4,539 6,558 3,798 2,760 2,345 1,255 1,090 1,651 608 1,043 5,665 1,531 4,134 9,972 4,764 5,208 11,013 5,591 5,422 9,705 5,104 4,601 6,539 3,765 2,774 2,244 1,216 1,028 -37 -17 -20 -99 -31 -68 -105 -49 -56 105 56 49 -56 6 -62 19 33 -14 101 39 66,510 66,635 -125 24,052 24,189 62 14 to 17years.. 6,138 14 and 15 years., 3,448 16 and 17 years.. 2,690 8,617 18 to 24years 2,753 18 and 19 years., 5,864 20 to 24. years... 11,300 25 to 34years 5,458 25 to 29 years... 30 to 34 years... 5,842 35 to 44years 12,399 35 to 39 years... 6,317 40 to 44 years... 6,082 45 to 54years 10,648 45 to 49 years... 5,611 50 to 54 years... 5,037 8,201 55 to 64years....... 55 to 59 years... 4,408 60 to 64 years... 3,793 9,207 65 years and over...... 65 to 69 years... 3,315 5.892 70 years and over 6,221 3,512 2,709 8,o62 2,780 5,882 11,314 5,469 5,845 12,355 6,300 6,055 10,903 5,704 5,199 8,312 4,451 3,861 8,868 3,221 5.647 957 360 597 3,974 1,301 2,673 4,051 1,885 2,166 5,579 2,656 2,923 5,327 2,809 2,518 3,222 1,987 1,235 942 566 376 964364 600 3,999 1,312 2,687 4,054 1,892 2,162 5,551 2,646 2,905 5,455 2,855 2,600 3,260 2,004 1,256 907 547 360 -137 Total.

Two groups averaging about one-quarter million workers which were formerly classified as employed (with a job but not at work)—those on temporary layoff and those waiting to start new wage and salary jobs within 30 days—were assigned to different classifications, mostly to the unemployed. Data by sex, shown in table A-2, were adjusted for the years 1948-56. 2Not available. beginning 1953, labor force and employment figures are not strictly comparable with previous years as a result of the introduction of material from the 1950 Census into the estimating procedure. Population levels were raised by about 600,000; labor force, total employment, and agricultural employment by about 350,000, primarily affecting the figures for total and males. Other categories were relatively unaffected. *Data include Alaska and Hawaii beginning 1960 and are therefore not strictly comparable with previous years. This inclusion has resulted in an increase of about half a million in the noninstitutional population 14 years of age and over, and about 300,000 in the labor for.ce, four-fifths of this in nonagricultural employment. The levels of other labor force categories were not appreciably changed. 5April 1962 figures are not strictly comparable with those for previous periods because of the introduction of I960 Census data into the estimation procedure. The change primarily affected the labor force and employment totals, which were reduced by about 200,000. The unemployment totals were virtually unchanged.

Use order blank on page 9-E. INTRODUCTION hours during the survey week. In the figures based on establishment records, persons who worked in more than one establishment during the reporting period are counted each time their names appear on payrolls. The statistics in this periodical are compiled from two major sources: (l) household interviews and (2) payroll reports from employers. Data based on household interviews are obtained from a sample survey of the population. The survey is conducted each month by the Bureau of the Census for the Bureau of Labor Statistics and provides a comprehensive measure of the labor force, i.e., the total number of persons I** years of age and over who are employed or unemployed. It also provides data on their personal and economic characteristics such as age, sex, color, marital status, occupations, hours of work, and duration of unemployment. The information is collected by trained interviewers from a sample of about 35yOOO households in 333 areas throughout the country and is based on the activity or status reported for the calendar week ending nearest the 15th of the month. Hours of Work The household survey measures hours actually worked whereas the payroll survey measures hours paid for by employers. In the household survey data, all persons with a job but not at work are excluded from the hours distributions and the computations of average hours. In the payroll survey, employees on paid vacation, paid holiday, or paid sick leave are included and assigned the number of hours for which they were paid during the reporting period. Data based on establishment payroll records are compiled each month from mail questionnaires by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, in cooperation with State agencies. The payroll survey provides detailed industry information on nonagricultural wage and salary employment, average weekly hours, average hourly and weekly earnings, and labor turnover for the Nation, States, and metropolitan areas. Comparability of the household interview data with other series The figures are based on payroll reports from a sample of 180,000 establishments employing about 25 million nonfarm wage and salary workers. The data relate to all workers, full- or part-time, who received pay during the payroll period ending nearest the 15th of the month. Relation between the household and payroll series The household and payroll data supplement one another, each providing significant types of information that the other cannot suitably supply. Ibpulation characteristics, for example, are readily obtained only from the household survey whereas detailed industrial classifications can be reliably derived only from establishment reports. Data from these two sources differ from each other because of differences in definition and coverage, sources of information, methods of collection, and estimating procedures. Sampling variability and response errors are additional reasons for discrepancies. The factors which have a differential effect on levels and trends of the two series are described below: Employment •oyment insurance data. The unemployed total from the household survey includes all persons who did not work at all during the survey week and were looking for work or were waiting to be called back to a job from which they had been laid off, regardless of whether or not they were eligible for unemployment insurance. Figures on unemployment insurance claims, prepared by the Bureau of Qnployment Security of the Department of Labor, exclude persons who have exhausted their benefit rights, new workers who have not earned rights to unemployment insurance, and persons losing jobs not covered by unemployment insurance systems (agriculture, State and local government, domestic service, self-employed, unpaid family work, nonprofit organizations, and firms below a TnininpiTn size). In addition, the qualifications for drawing unemployment compensation differ from the definition of unemployment used in the household survey. For example, persons with a job but not at work and persons working only a few hours during the week are sometimes eligible for unemployment compensation, but are classified as employed rather than unemployed in the household survey. Agricultural employment estimates of the Department of Agriculture. The principal differences in coverage are the inclusion of persons under Ik in the Agricultural Marketing Service (AMS) series and the treatment of dual jobholders who are counted more than once if they worked on more than one farm during the reporting period. There are also wide differences in sampling techniques and collecting and estimating methods, which cannot be readily measured in terms of impact on differences in level and trend of the two series. Coverage. The household survey definition of employment comprises wage and salary workers (including domestics and other private household workers), self-employed persons, and unpaid workers who worked 15 hours or more during the survey week ;Ln family-operated enterprises. Qnployment in both farm and nonfarm industries is included. The payroll survey covers only wage and salary employees on the payrolls of nonfarm establishments. Multiple tiple jobholding. The household approach provides information onL the the work ' status of the population without duplication since each person is classified as employed, unemployed, or not in the labor force. Employed persons holding more than one job are counted only once, and are classified according to the job at which they worked the greatest number of Unpaid absences from jobs. The household survey includes among the employed all persons who had jobs but were not at work during the survey week—that is, were not working or looking for work but had jobs from which they were temporarily absent because of illness, bad weather, vacation, labor-management dispute, or because they were taking time off for various other reasons, whether or not they were paid by their employers for the time off. In the figures based on payroll reports, persons on paid sick leave, paid vacation, or paid holiday are included, but not those on leave without pay for the entire payroll period. Comparability of the payroll employment data with other series Statistics on manufactures and business, Bureau of the Census. BLS establishment statistics on employment differ from employment counts derived by the Bureau of the Census from 1-E its censuses or annual sample surveys of manufacturing establishments and the censuses of business establishments. The major reason for lack of comparability is different treatment of business units considered parts of an establishment, such as 'central administrative offices and auxiliary units, and in the industrial classification of establishments due to different reporting patterns by multiunit companies. <Ehere are also differences in the scope of the industries covered, e.g., the Census of Business excludes professional services, transportation companies, and financial establishments, while these are included in BLS statistics. County Business Patterns. Data in County Business Bitterns, published jointly by the U. S. Departments of Commerce and Health, Education, and Welfare, differ from BIS establishment statistics in the units considered integral parts of an establishment and in industrial classification. In addition, CBP data exclude employment in nonprofit institutions, interstate railroads, and government. Employment covered by Unemployment Insurance programs. Wot all nonfarm wage and salary workers are covered by the Unemployment Insurance programs. All workers in certain activities, such as nonprofit organizations and interstate railroads, are excluded. In addition, small firms in covered industries are also excluded in 32 States. In general, these are establishments with less than four employees. LABOR FORCE DATA COLLECTION AND COVERAGE Statistics on the employment status of the population, the personal, occupational, and other economic characteristics of employed and unemployed persons, and related labor force data are compiled for the BLS by the Bureau of the Census in its Current Population Survey (CPS). (A detailed description of this survey appears in Concepts and Methods Used in the Current Employment and Unemployment Statistics Prepared by the Bureau of the Census, U.S. Bureau of the Census, Current Population Reports, Series P-23, Kb. 5* This report is available from BLS on request.) These monthly surveys of the population are conducted with a scientifically selected sample designed to represent the civilian noninstitutional population Ik years and over. Respondents are interviewed to obtain information about the employment status of each member of the household Ik years of age and over. The inquiry relates to activity or status during the calendar week, Sunday through Saturday, ending nearest the 15th of the month. This is known as the survey week. Actual field interviewing is conducted in the following week. Inmates of institutions and persons under 14 years of age are not covered in the regular monthly enumerations and are excluded from the population and labor force statistics shown in this report. Data on members of the Armed Forces, who are included as part of the categories "total noninstitutional population" and "total labor force," are obtained from the Department of Defense. The sample for CPS is spread over 333 areas comprising #+1 counties and independent cities, with coverage in 50 States and the District of Columbia. At present, completed interviews are obtained each month from about 35>OOO households. There are about 1,500 additional sample households from which information should be collected but is not because the occupants are not found at home after repeated calls, are temporarily absent, or are unavailable for other reasons. This represents a noninterview rate for the survey of about h percent. Bart of the sample is changed each month. The rotation plan provides for approximately three-fourths of the sample to be common from one month to the next, and one-half to be common with the same month a year ago. Included in the total are employed citizens of foreign countries, temporarily in the United States, who are not living on the premises of an Embassy (e.g., Mexican migratory farm workers). Excluded are persons whose only activity consisted of work around the house (such as own home housework, and painting or repairing own home) or volunteer work for religious, charitable, and similar organizations. Unemployed Parsons comprise all persons who did not work at all during the survey week and were looking for work, regardless of whether or not they were eligible for unemployment insurance. Also included as unemployed are those who did not work at all and (a) were waiting to be called back to a job from which they had been laid off; or (b) were waiting to report to a new wage or salary job within 30 days (and were not in school during the survey week); or (c) would have been looking for work except that they were temporarily ill or believed no work was available in their line of work or in the community. Persons in this latter category will usually be residents of a community in which there are only a few dominant industries which were shut down during the survey week. Not included in this category are persons who say they were not looking for work because they were too old, too young, or handicapped in any way. The Unemployment Rate represents the number unemployed as a percent of the civilian labor force, i.e., the sum of the employed and unemployed. This measure can also be computed for groups within the labor force classified by sex, age, marital status, color, etc. When applied to industry and occupation groups, the labor force base for the unemployment rate also represents the sum of the employed and the unemployed, the latter classified according to industry and occupation of their latest full-time civilian job. Duration of Unemployment represents the length of time (through the current survey week) during which persons classified as unemployed had been continuously looking for work or would have been looking for work except for temporary illness, or belief that no work was available in their line of work or in the community. For persons on layoff, duration of unemployment represents the number of full weeks since the termination of their most recent employment. Average duration is an arithmetic mean computed from a distribution by single weeks of unemployment. The Civilian Labor Force comprises the total of all civilians classified as employed or unemployed in accordance with the criteria described above. The "total labor force" also includes members of the Armed Forces stationed either in the United States or abroad. Not in Labor Force includes all civilians ik years and over who are not classified as employed or unemployed. These persons are further classified as "engaged in own home housework, " "in school," "unable to work" because of long-term physical or mental illness, and "other." The "other" group includes for the most part retired persons, those reported as too old to work, the voluntarily idle, and seasonal workers for whom the survey week fell in an "off" season and who were not reported as unemployed. Persons doing only incidental unpaid family work (less than 15 hours) are also classified as not in the labor force. Occupation, Industry, and Class of Worker apply to the job held in the survey week. Persons with two or more jobs are classified in the job at which they worked the greatest number of hours during the survey week. The occupation and industry groups used in data derived from the CES household interviews are defined as in the 1950 Census of Population. Information on the detailed categories included in these groups is available upon request. CONCEPTS Qnployed Parsons comprise (a) all those who during the survey week did any work at all either as paid employees, or in their own business or profession, or on their own farm, or who worked 15 hours or more as unpaid workers on a farm or in a business operated by a member of the family, and (b) all those who were not working or looking for work but who had jobs or businesses from which they were temporarily absent because of illness, bad weather, vacation, or labor-management dispute, or because they were taking time off for various other reasons, whether or not they were paid by their employers for the time off. Each employed person is counted only once. Those who held more than one job are counted in the job at which they worked the greatest number of hours during the survey week. The industrial classification system used in the Census of Population and the Current Population Survey differs somewhat from that used by the BLS in its reports on employment, by industry. Employment levels by industry from the household survey, although useful for many analytical purposes, are not published in order to avoid public misunderstanding since they differ from the payroll series because of differences in classification, sampling variability, and other reasons. The industry figures from the household survey are used as a base for published distributions on hours of work, unemployment rates, and other 2-E characteristics of industry groups such as age, sex, and occupation. mortality, and migration between the United States and other countries. The class-of-worker breakdown specifies "wage and salary workers," subdivided into private and government workers, "self-employed workers," and "unpaid family workers." Wage and salary workers receive wages, salary, commission, tips, or pay in kind from a private employer or from a governmental unit. Self-employed persons are those who work for profit or fees in their own business, profession, or trade, or operate a farm. Unpaid family workers are persons working without pay for 15 hours a week or more on a farm or in a business operated by a member of the household to whom they are related by blood or marriage. 3. Composite estimate procedure. In deriving statistics for a given month, a composite estimating procedure is used which takes account of net changes from the previous month for continuing parts of the sample (75 percent) as well as the sample results for the current month. This procedure reduces the sampling variability especially of month-to-month changes but also of the levels for most items. 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. Reliability of the Estimates Since the estimates are based on a sample, they may differ from the figures that would have been obtained if it were possible to take a complete census using the same schedules and procedures. The standard error is a measure of sampling variability, that is, the variations that might occur by chance because only a sample of the population is surveyed. The chances are about two out of three that an estimate from the sample would differ from a complete census by less than the standard error. The chances are about 19 out of 20 that the difference would be less than twice the standard error. For persons working in more than one job, the figures relate to the number of hours worked in all jobs during the week. However, all the hours are credited to the major job. Parsons who worked 35 hours or more in the survey week are designated as working "full time"; persons who worked between 1 and 3^ hours are designated as working "part time." Bart-time workers are classified by their usual status at their present job (either full time or part time) and by their reason for working part time during the survey week (economic or other reasons). "Economic reasons" include: Slack work, material shortages, repairs to plant or equipment, start or termination of job during the week, and inability to find full-time work. "Other reasons" include: labor dispute, bad weather, own illness, vacation, demands of home housework, school, no desire for full-time work and full-time worker only during peak season. Table A shows the average standard error for the major employment status categories, by sex, computed from data for 12 recent months. Estimates of change derived from the survey are also subject to sampling variability. The standard error of change for consecutive months is also shown in table A. The standard errors of level shown in table A are acceptable approximations of the standard errors of year-to-year change. Table A. Average standard error of major employment status categories (in thousands) ESTIMATING METHODS Average standard error o f — The estimating procedure is essentially one of using sample results to obtain percentages of the population in a given category. The published estimates are then obtained by multiplying these percentage distributions by independent estimates of the population. The principal steps involved are shown below. Under the estimation methods used in the CPS, all of the results for a given month become available simultaneously and are based on returns from the entire panel of respondents. There are no subsequent adjustments to independent benchmark data on labor force, employment, or unemployment. Therefore, revisions of the historical data are not an inherent feature of this statistical program. Employment status and sex Monthly level Month-tomonth change (consecutive months only) BOTH SEXES Labor force and total employment. 250 200 300 100 180 120 180 100 120 180 200 75 90 90 120 90 180 150 MALE 1. Hbninterview adjustment. The weights for all interviewed households are adjusted to the extent needed to account for occupied sample households for which no information was obtained because of absence, impassable roads, refusals, or unavailability for other reasons. This adjustment is made separately by groups of sample areas and, within these, for six groups—color (white and nonwhite) within the three residence categories (urban, rural nonfarm, and rural farm). The proportion of sample households not interviewed varies from 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 axe closely correlated with labor force participation and other principal measurements made from the sample, the latter estimates can be substantially improved when weighted appropriately by the known distribution of these population characteristics. This is accomplished through two stages of ratio estimates as follows: FEMALE Labor force and total employment. 75 55 180 120 65 65 The figures presented in table B are to be used for other characteristics and are approximations of the standard errors of all such characteristics. They should be interpreted as providing an indication of the order of magnitude of the standard errors rather than as the precise standard error for any specific item. a. First-stage, ratio estimate. This is the procedure in which the sample proportions are weighted by the known 1950 Census data on the color-residence distribution of the population. This step takes into account the differences existing at the time of the 1950 Census between the colorresidence distribution for the Nation and for the sample areas. b. Second-stage ratio estimate. In this step, the sample proportions are weighted by independent current estimates of the population by age, sex, and color. These estimates are prepared by carrying forward the most recent census data (1950) to take account of subsequent aging of the population, Labor force and total employment. Agriculture The standard error of the change in an item from one month to the next month is more closely related to the standard error of the monthly level for that item than to the size of the specific month-to-month change itself. Thus, in order to use the approximations to the standard errors of month-to-month changes as presented in table C, it is first necessary to obtain the standard error of the monthly level of the item in table B, and then find the standard error of the month-to-month change in table C corresponding to this standard error of level. It should be noted that table C applies to estimates of change between 2 consecutive months. For changes between the current month and the same last year, the standard errors of level shown in table B are acceptable approximations. 3-E Table B.

Linear interpolation in the first column of table B shows that the standard error of 15,000,000 is about 160,000. Consequently, the chances are about 68 out of 100 that the sample estimate differs by less than 160,000 from the figure which would have been obtained from a complete count of the number of persons working the given number of hours. Using the 160,000 as the standard error of the monthly level in table C, it may be seen that the standard error of the 500,000 increase is about 135,000. Table C. Standard error of estimates of month-to-month change Federal-State Cooperation Under cooperative arrangements with State agencies, the respondent fills out only one employment or labor turnover schedule, which is then used for national, State, and area estimates. This eliminates duplicate reporting on the part of respondents and, together with the use of identical techniques at the national and State levels, ensures maximum geographic comparability of estimates. State agencies mail the forms to the establishments and examine the returns for consistency, accuracy, and completeness. The States use the information to prepare State and area series and then send the data to the BLS for use in preparing the national series. The BLS and the Bureau of Employment Security jointly finance the current employment statistics program in hh States, the turnover program in k2 States. Shuttle Schedules The Form BLS 790 is used to collect employment, payroll, and man-hours data, and Form DL 1219 or BLS 1219 for labor turnover data. These schedules are of the "shuttle" type, with space for each month of the calendar year. The schedule is returned to the respondent each month by the collecting agency so that the next month's data can be entered. This procedure assures maximum comparability and accuracy of reporting, since the respondent can see the figures he has reported for previous months.

The labor turnover schedule provides for the collection of information on the total number of accessions and separations, by type, during the calendar month. INDUSTRIAL CLASSIFICATION Establishments 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 an industry class supplement to the monthly 790 or 1219 report. In the case of an establishment making more than one product or engaging in more than one activity, the entire employment of the establishment is included under the industry indicated b y the most important product or activity. All national, State, and area employment, hours, earnings, and labor turnover series are classified in accordance with the Standard Industrial Classification Manual, Bureau of the Budget, 1957 • Since many of the published industry series represent combinations of SIC industries, the BLS has prepared a Guide to Employment Statistics of BLS, 1961 which specifies the SIC code or codes covered by each industry title listed in Employment and Earnings. In addition, the Guide provides industry definitions and lists the beginning date of each series. The Guide is available free upon request. Prior to January 1959, all national, State, and area series were classified in accordance with the following documents: (l) For manufacturing, Standard Industrial Classification 50 Manual, Volume I, Bureau of the Budget, 19^5, and (2) for nonmanufacturing, Industrial Classification Code, Social Security k.9 Board, I9I+2. State and area series were converted to the 1957 3.9 SIC beginning in January 1959 (with an overlap for 1958) and 2.8 national industry statistics were converted in the latter part of 1.9 1961 (with an overlap from 1958 to the month of conversion). l.k Consequently, back issues of Employment and Earnings will not 1.1 provide earlier data on a comparable basis. However, for many industries, both BLS and the cooperating State agencies have con.9 structed series for years prior to 1958 which are comparable with .6 data starting with 1958 and based on the 1957 SIC. National data .k for earlier periods comparable with those currently published are .3 available in Employment and Earnings Statistics for the .2 li-E COVERAGE paid holiday or paid vacation, or who work during a part of the pay period and are unemployed or on strike during the rest of the period, are counted as employed. Not counted as employed are persons who are laid off, on leave without pay, or on strike for the entire period, or who are hired but do not report to work during the period. Bnployment, Hours, and Earnings Benchmark Adjustments Reports on employment and, for most industries, payroll and man-hours are collected monthly from sample establishments in nonagricultural industries. The table below shows the approximate proportion of total employment in each industry division covered by the group of establishments furnishing monthly employment data. The coverage for individual industries within the division may vary from the proportions shown. Employment estimates are periodically compared with complete counts of employment in the various industries defined as nonagri cultural, and appropriate adjustments made as indicated by the total counts or- "benchmarks." The industry employment estimates are currently projected from March 1959 benchmarks. After allowing for the effect of shifts in products or activities resulting from conversion to the 1957 Standard Industrial Classification, and the changes in level resulting from improved benchmark sources for employment not covered by the social insurance systems, meaningful quantitative comparisons can be made between estimates for March 1959 projected from the last previous benchmarks (1957) and the actual March 1959 benchmark levels. This comparison reveals a difference of 0.6 percent for total nonagricultural employment, practically identical with the extent of the adjustment in March 1957, the last benchmark adjustment prior to the shift in classification systems. The differences were less than 1.0 percent for four of the eight major industry divisions; under 2 percent for two other divisions; and 3*8 and 4.9 percent for the remaining two divisions.

Other causes are sampling and response errors. The basic sources of benchmark information are the quarterly tabulations of employment data, by industry, compiled by State agencies from reports of establishments covered under State unemployment insurance laws. These tabulations are prepared under Bureau of Qnployment Security direction. Supplementary tabulations prepared by the Bureau of Old-Age and Survivors Insurance are used for the group of establishments exempt from State unemployment insurance laws because of their small size. Benchmarks for industries wholly or partly excluded from the unemployment insurance laws are derived from a variety of other sources. Among improvements introduced in 196l, when the industry statistics were converted to the 1957 Standard Industrial Classification Manual, was the development of new and better sources of benchmark data for employment either outside the social insurance system or covered by it only on a voluntary basis. The BLS estimates relating to the benchmark month are compared with the new benchmark levels, industry by industry. Where revisions are necessary, the monthly series of estimates are adjusted between the new benchmark and the preceding one. The new benchmark for each industry is then carried forward progressively to the current month by use of the sample trends. Thus, under this procedure, the benchmark is used to establish the level of employment while the sample is used to measure the month-to-month changes in the level. Industry Hours and Earnings Communi cat i on: Telegraph CONCEPTS Industry Employment Employment data for all except the Federal Government refer to persons on establishment payrolls who received pay for any part of the pay period endinp nearest the l£th 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 durinp the month. The data exclude proprietor?, the self-employed, unpaid family workers, farm worker?, and domestic workers in households. Salaried officers of corporations are included. Government employment covers only civilian employees; Federal military personnel are excluded from total nonagri cultural employment. Hours and earnings data are derived from reports of payrolls and man-hours for production and related workers or nonsupervisory employees. These terms are defined below. When the pay period reported is longer than 1 week, the figures are reduced to a weekly basis. Production and Related Workers include working foremen and all nonsupervisory workers (including leadmen and trainees) engaged in fabricating, processing, assembling, inspection, receiving, storage, handling, packing, warehousing, shipping, maintenance, repair, janitorial and watchman services, product development, auxiliary production for plant's own use (e.g., power plant), and recordkeeping and other services closely associated with the above production operations. Nbnsupervispry Employees include employees (not above the working supervisory level) such as office and clerical workers, repairmen, salespersons, operators, drivers, attendants, service employees, linemen, laborers, janitors, watchmen, and similar occupational levels, and other employees whose services are closely associated with those of the employees listed. Persons on an establishment payroll who are on paid sick leave (when pay is received directly from the firm), on f&yroll covers the payroll for full- and part-time 5-E Railroad Hours and Earnings production, construction, or nonsupervisory workers who received pay for any part of the pay period ending nearest the 15th of the month. The payroll is reported before deductions of any kind, e.g., for old-age and unemployment insurance, group insurance, withholding tax, bonds, or union dues; also included is pay for overtime, holidays, vacations, and sick leave paid directly by the firm. Bonuses (unless earned and paid regularly each pay period), other pay not earned in pay period reported (e.g., retroactive pay), and the value of free rent, fuel, meals, or other payment in kind are excluded. 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 who received pay during the month, except executives, officials, and staff assistants (ICC group I). Gross average hourly earnings are computed by dividing total compensation by total hours paid for. Average weekly hours are obtained by dividing the total number of hours paid for, reduced to a weekly basis, by the number of employees, as defined above. Gross average weekly earnings are derived by multiplying average weekly hours by average hourly earnings. Man-Hours cover man-hours worked or paid for, during the pay period ending nearest the 15th of the month, for production, construction, and .nonsupervisory workers. The man-hours include hours paid for holidays and vacations, and for sick leave when pay is received directly from the firm. Spendable Average Weekly Earnings Spendable average weekly earnings in current dollars are obtained by deducting estimated Federal social security and Income taxes from gross weekly earnings. The amount of income tax liability depends on the number of dependents supported by the worker, as well as on the level of his gross income. To reflect these variables, spendable earnings are computed for a worker with no dependents, and a worker with three dependents* The computations are based on the gross average weekly earnings for all production or nonsupervisory workers in the industry division without regard to marital status, family composition, or total family income. Overtime Hours cover premium overtime hours of production and related workers during the pay period ending nearest the 15th of the month. Overtime hours are those for which premiums were paid because the hours were in excess of the number of hours of either the straight-time workday or workweek. Weekend and holiday hours are included only if premium wage rates were paid. Hours for which only shift differential, hazard, incentive, or other similar types of premiums were paid are excluded. Gross Average Hourly and Weekly Earnings "Real" earnings are computed by dividing the current Consumer Price Index into the earnings averages for the current month. The resulting level of earnings expressed in 1957-59 dollars is thus adjusted for changes in purchasing power since the base period. Average hourly earnings for manufacturing and nonmanufacturing industries are on a "gross" basis, reflecting 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. Employment shifts between relatively high-paid and low-paid work and changes in workers1 earnings in individual establishments also affect the general earnings averages. Averages for groups and divisions further reflect changes in average hourly earnings for individual industries. Average Hourly Earnings Excluding Overtime Average hourly earnings excluding premium overtime pay are computed by dividing the total production-worker payroll for the industry group by the sum of total production-worker manhours and one-half of total overtime man-hours. 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. 537-5^0). Both methods eliminate only the earnings due to overtime paid for at one and one-half times the straight-time rates. No adjustment is made for other premium payment provisions, such as holiday work, late-shift work, and overtime rates other than time and one-half. Averages of hourly earnings differ from wage rates. Earnings are the actual return to the worker for a stated period of time, while rates are the amounts stipulated for a given unit of work or time. The earnings series, however, does not measure the level of total labor costs on the part of the employer since the following are excluded: Irregular bonuses, retroactive items, payments of various welfare benefits, payroll taxes paid by employers, and earnings for those employees not covered under the production-worker or nonsupervisory-employee definitions. Indexes of Aggregate Weekly Bayrolls and Man-Hours Gross average weekly earnings are derived by multiplying average weekly hours by average hourly earnings. Therefore, weekly earnings are affected not only by changes in gross average hourly earnings, but also by changes in the length of the workweek, part-time work, stoppages for varying causes, labor turnover, and absenteeism. The indexes of aggregate weekly payrolls and man-hours are prepared by dividing the current month's aggregate by the monthly average for the 1957-59 period. The man-hour aggregates are the product of average weekly hours and production-worker employment, and the payroll aggregates are the 'product of gross average weekly earnings and production-worker employment. Average Weekly Hours Labor Turnover The workweek information relates to the average hours for which pay was received, and is different from standard or scheduled hours. Such factors as absenteeism, labor turnover, part-time work, and stoppages cause average weekly hours to be lower than scheduled hours of work for an establishment. Group averages further reflect changes in the workweek of component industries. labor turnover is the gross movement of wage and salary workers into and out of employment status with respect to individual establishments. This movement, which relates to a calendar month, is divided into two broad types: Accessions (new hires and rehires) and separations (terminations of employment initiated by either employer or employee). Each type of action is cumulated for a calendar month and expressed as a rate per 100 employees. The data relate to all employees, whether full- or part-time, permanent or temporary, including executive, office, sales, other salaried personnel, and production workers. Transfers to another establishment of the company are included, beginning with January 1959. Average Overtime Hours The overtime hours represent that portion of the gross average weekly hours which were in excess of regular hours and for which premium payments were made. If an employee worked on a paid , holiday at regular rates, receiving as total compensation his holiday pay plus straight-time pay for hours worked that day, no overtime hours would be reported. Since overtime hours are premium hours by definition, gross weekly hours and overtime hours do not necessarily move in the same direction, from month-to-raonth; for example, premiums may be paid for hours in excess of the straight-time workday although less than a full week is worked. Diverse trends at the industrygroup level may also be caused by a marked change in gross hours for a component industry where little or no overtime was worked in both the previous and current months. In addition, such factors as stoppages, absenteeism, and labor turnover may not have the same influence on overtime hours as on gross hours. 6-E Accessions are the total number of permanent and temporary additions to the employment roll, including both new and rehired employees. New hires are temporary or permanent additions to the employment roll of persons who have never before been employed in the establishment (except employees transferring from another establishment of the same company) or of former employees not recalled by the employer. Other accessions, which are not published separately but are included in total accessions, are all additions to the employment roll which are not classified as new hires including transfers from another establishment of the company. STATISTICS FOR STATES A N D AREAS State and area employment, hours, earnings, and labor turnover data are collected and prepared by State agencies in cooperation with BLS. The area statistics relate to metropolitan areas, as '-defined in the Annual Supplement Issue of Employment and Earnings. Additional industry detail may be obtained from the State agencies listed on the inside back cover of each issue. These statistics are based on the same establishment reports used by BIS for preparing national estimates. For employment, the sum of the State figures may differ slightly from the equivalent official U.S. totals on a national basis, because some States have more recent benchmarks than others and because of the effects of differing industrial and geographic stratification. Separations are terminations of employment during the calendar month and are classified according to cause: Quits, layoffs, and other separations, as defined below. Quits are terminations of employment initiated by employees, failure to report after being hired, and unauthorized absences, if on the last day of the month the person has been absent more than 7 consecutive calendar days. Layoffs are suspensions without pay lasting or expected to last more than 7 consecutive calendar days, initiated by the employer without prejudice to the worker. Other separations, which are not published separately but are included in total separations, are terminations of employment because of discharge, permanent disability, death, retirement, transfers to another establishment of the company, and entrance into the Armed Forces expected to last more than 30 consecutive calendar days. Comparability With Employment Series Month-to-month changes in total employment in manufacturing industries reflected by labor turnover rates are not comparable with the changes shown in the Bureau's employment series for the, following reasons: (l) Accessions and separations are computed for the entire calendar month; the employment reports refer to the pay period ending nearest the 15th of the month; and (2)§ employees on strike are not counted as turnover actions although such employees are excluded from the employment estimates if the work stoppage extends through the report period. ESTIMATING METHODS Several major technical improvements were achieved in 1961, when the industry statistics were converted to the 1957 Standard Industrial Classification Manual. The benchmark tabulations obtained from State unemployment insurance agencies (see section on benchmark adjustments), which formerly gave employment totals by industry, were tabulated to give separate totals by size of establishment within industries for the first quarter of each year beginning with 1959. Intensive analysis revealed that significant improvements could be made for many of the hours and earnings series if the employment estimates for certain industries were stratified by size of establishment and/or by region, and the stratified production- or nonsupervisoryworker data were used in weighting the hours and earnings into broader industry groupings. Accordingly, the basic estimating cell for an employment, hours, or earnings series, as the term is used in the summary of computational methods on page 8-E, may be an industry size and/or regional stratum or it may be an entire industry or combination of industries. Further analysis will be made, as resources permit, to determine whether stratification will improve the estimates of labor turnover rates. More advanced automatic electronic data-processing equipment has also contributed to improving the program. The advanced equipment, with its greater capacity, has made feasible the increased number of computations required by the introduction of size cells, and facilitates closer quality control of data input and output. SEASONAL ADJUSTMENT Many economic statistics reflect a regularly recurring seasonal movement which can be measured on the basis of past experience. By eliminating that part of the change which can be ascribed to usual seasonal variation, it is possible to observe the cyclical and other nonseasonal movements in the series. Seasonally adjusted series for selected labor force and establishment data are published regularly in Employment and Earnings. The seasonal adjustment method used for these series is a new adaptation of the standard ratio-to-moving average method, with a provision for "moving" adjustment factors to take account of changing seasonal patterns. A detailed description and illustration of the basic method was published in the August i960 Monthly Labor Review. The seasonally adjusted series on weekly hours and labor turnover rates for industry groupings are computed by applying factors directly to the corresponding unadjusted series, but seasonally adjusted employment totals for all employees and production workers by industry divisions are obtained by summing the seasonally adjusted data which are published for component industries. The factors currently in use are available upon request. In the case of unemployment, data for four age-sex groups (male and female unemployed workers under age 20, and age 20 and over) are separately adjusted for seasonal variation and are then added to give a seasonally adjusted total unemployment figure. The seasonally adjusted rate of unemployment is derived by dividing the seasonally adjusted figure for total unemployment (the sum of the four seasonally adjusted age-sex components) by the figure for the seasonally adjusted civilian labor force. Seasonal adjustment factors for major components of the labor force to be applied to data for 1961 and later are provided in the table below, since seasonally adjusted labor force series, except for the unemployment rates, are not published regularly in Employment and Earnings. The seasonal adjustment factors applying to current data are based on a pattern shown by past experience. These factors are revised in the light of the pattern•revealed by subsequent data. Data through December 1961 were used in deriving the current factors applicable to 1961-62. Revisions will be made annually as each additional year's data become available. Seasonal adjustment factors for the labor force and major components, to be used for the period 1961-62 The general procedures used for estimating industry employment, hours, earnings, and labor turnover statistics are described in the table on page 8-E. Details are given in the technical notes on Measurement of Employment, Hours, and Earnings in Nonagricultural Industries and Measurement of Labor Turnover, which are available upon request. Reliability of Preliminary Estimates For the most recent months, national estimates of employment, hours, and earnings are preliminary, and so footnoted in the tables. These particular figures are based on less than the full sample and consequently subject to revision when all of the reports in the sample have been received. Studies of these revisions in past data indicate that they have been relatively small for employment and even smaller for hours and earnings. Because of the change in the industrial classification system and in the estimating methods described above, it will not be possible to determine the magnitude of the error in preliminary estimates published for 1961 and subsequent periods, until sufficient experience has been accumulated.
