Employment and Unemployment
Developments, October 200 >
onfarm payroll employment was little changc c
(+56,000) in October, and the unemployment rate w ,i is
essentially unchanged at 5.0 percent. Average hour l y
earnings of production or nonsupervisory workers on private
nonfarm payrolls rose by 8 cents over the month.
N
because they believed no jobs were available for them. The
other 1.0 million marginally attached persons had not
searched for work for reasons such as school attendance or
family responsibilities. (See table A-38.)
Unemployment
Total nonfarm payroll employment was little changed
(+56,000) in October at 134.1 million. Employment growth
was flat in September (-8,000, as revised), due in part to the
effects ofHurricane Katrina. In the first 8 months of the year,
payroll employment had increased by an average of 196,000
per month. In October, construction, financial activities, and
health c ^ o ?:dded jobs, while employment in most other major
industries showed little movement. (See table B-3.)
Over the month, construction employment increased by
33,000, with much of the gain (20,000) occurring in residential
specialty trade contracting. Prior to October, construction
employment had been expanding by an average of21,000 per
month in 2005. October's gain may partly reflect rebuilding
and clean-up efforts following Hurricane Katrina. Mining
continued to trend upward, adding 5,000 jobs over the
month.
Manufacturing added 12,000jobs in October. Employment
in transportation equipment increased by 22,000, largely due
to the return of 18,000 striking workers in the aerospace
industry. This gain in transportation equipment employment
was partly offset by job losses in computer and peripheral
equipment (-2,000), electrical equipment and appliances
(-3,000), and miscellaneous manufacturing (-4,000) in October.
Employment in financial activities continued to grow in
October, rising by 22,000. Employment gains in credit
intermediation accounted for about half of the over-the-month
increase. Over the year, credit, intermediation has added
107,000 jobs. Employment in insurance edged up in
October.
Health care employment also continued to grow in October,
increasing by 17,000. Ambulatory health care services, which
includes doctors' offices and outpatient clinics, added 11,000
jobs. Hospitals also contributed to the employment gain
with an increase of6,000 jobs.
Employment in the leisure and hospitality industry edged
down in October, after declining by 63,000 in September.
Within the industry, food services—which includes
restaurants and drinking places—accounted for the weakness
over the month. Prior to September, food services had been
adding about 26,000jobs per month in 2005.
Industry payroll employment
Both the number of unemployed persons, 7.4 million, and Hie
unemployment rate, 5.0 percent, were little changed in
October. The unemployment rate has ranged from 4.9 to 5 1
percent since May. The unemployment rates for adult women
(4.6 percent), teenagers (15.9 percent), whites (4.4 percent I,
and blacks (9.1 percent) showed little or no change over fee
month. The jobless rates for adult men (4.3 percent) and
Hispanics or Latinos (5.8 percent) both declined from
September. In October, the unemployment rate for Asians
was 3.1 percent, not seasonally adjusted. (See tables A-3,
A-4, and A-13.)
After increasing by a similar magnitude in September,
the number of persons unemployed due to job loss fell by
201.000 in October to 3.5 million. Since December, the number
of unemployed job losers has decreased by 585,000. (See
table A-ll.)
Total employment and the labor force
Total employment, 142.6 million, and the civilian labor force,
150.1 million, were little changed in October. The employmentpopulation ratio (62.9 percent) and the labor force
participation rate (66.1 percent) also were little changed. (See
table A-3.)
In October, persons employed part time for economic
reasons—those who are available for and would prefer full
time work—decreased by 330,000 to 4.3 million. This number
had been trending up in recent months. (See table A-7.)
Persons not in the labor force
The number of persons marginally attached to the labor force
was 1A million in October, downfrom1.6 million a year earlier.
(Data are not seasonally adjusted.) These individuals wanted
and were available to work and had looked for a job sometime
in the prior 12 months. They were not counted as unemployed,
however, because they did not actively search for work in
the 4 weeks preceding the survey. There were 392,000
discouraged workers in October, little changed from a year
earlier. Discouraged workers, a subset of the marginally
attached, were not currently looking for work specifically
Retail trade employment was essentially unchanged in
October following a large decline in September. In October,
there were job losses in department stores (-18,000) and
automobile dealers (-9,000). Following large declines in
August and September, employment in food stores edged
up by 9,000 in October. Sporting goods, hobby, book, and
music stores also added 9,000 jobs over the month, largely
offsetting a decline in September.
Professional and business services employment was little
changed in October. Over the last 12 months, however, the
industry has added442,000jobs. Over the month, employment
in computer systems design and related services increased
by 8,000.
In October, employment in information decreased
by 15,000. Much of this decline was due to a job loss
of 11,000 in the motion picture and sound recording
industry. Despite the October decline, employment in
the information industry was about unchanged over the
year.
Weekly hours
The average workweek for production or nonsupervisory
workers on private nonfarm payrolls was unchanged at 33.8
hours in October, seasonally adjusted. The manufacturing
workweek increased by 0.4 hour to 41.0 hours, and factory
overtime was unchanged at 4.5 hours. (See table B-7.)
The index of aggregate weekly hours of production or
nonsupervisory workers on private nonfarm payrolls was
unchanged in October at 103.2 (2002=100). The
manufacturing index was up by 1.3 percent over the month
to 95.1, (See table B-8.)
Hourly and weekly earnings
Average hourly earnings of production or nonsupervisory
workers on private nonfarm payrolls rose by 8 cents in
October to $16.27, seasonally adjusted. Average weekly
earnings increased by 0.5 percent over the month to $549.93.
Over title year, both average hourly and weekly earnings
increased by 2.9 percent. (See table B-10.)
Hurricanes Katrina, Rita, and Wilma
In October, interviewing for the household survey resumed in Orleans and Jefferson parishes in Louisiana.
Interviews were not conducted in those areas in September because they were under mandatory evacuation
orders. Otherwise, normal data collection and estimation procedures were used in the household survey for both
months.
For the October establishment survey estimates, several modifications to the usual estimation procedures
were again used to better reflect employment in Katrina-affected areas. The changes included: (1) modification
of procedures to impute employment counts for survey nonrespondents in the most heavily impacted areas, (2)
adjustments to sample weights for sample units in the more broadly defined disaster area to compensate for lowexthan-average survey response rates, and (3) modification of the adjustment procedure for the business net birth/
death estimator to reflect likely changes in business birth/death patterns in the disaster areas.
Hurricane Rita made landfall on the Gulf Coast near the Louisiana and Texas border in late September. For
October, the number of responses to the establishment survey was only slightly below normal in the areas
affected by Rita. Therefore, no special estimation procedures were used for those areas.
Hurricane Wilma struck Florida after the October survey reference periods, but during the survey collection
periods. As with Hurricane Rita, the impact on data collection for the establishment survey was minimal, and no
special estimation procedures were used for the affected areas. Because the reference periods for both surveys
occurred before Hurricane Wilma struck, any impact of this storm would not be reflected in October's employment
and unemployment estimates.
For more information on household and establishment survey procedures and estimates for October 2005, see
http://www.bls.gov/katrina/cpscesquestions.htm on the BLS Web site or call (202) 691-6378 for information about
the household survey, and (202) 691-6555 for information about the establishment survey.

The population figures are not adjusted for seasonal variation.
NOTE: Estimates for the above race groups (white and black or African American) do not sum to totals because data are not presented for all races. In addition,
persons whose ethnicity is identified as Hispanic or Latino may be of any race and, therefore, are classified by ethnicity as well as by race. Beginning in January 2005,
data reflect revised population controls used in the household survey.

NOTE: Estimates for the above race groups (white, black or African American,
and Asian) do not sum to totals because data are not presented for all races. In
addition, persons whose ethnicity is identified as Hispanic or Latino may be of
any race and, therefore, are classified by ethnicity as well as by race. Beginning
in January 2005, data reflect revised population controls used in the household
survey. Dash indicates no data or data that do not meet publication criteria.

for ail races. In addition, persons whose ethnicity is identified as Hispanic or

Data not shown where base is less than 75,000.
NOTE: Estimates for the above race groups (white, black or African
American, and Asian) do not sum to totals because data are not presented for all
races. In addition, persons whose ethnicity is identified as Hispanic or Latino
may be of any race and, therefore, are classified by ethnicity as well as by race.
Beginning in January 2005, data reflect revised population controls used in the
household survey.

February 18, 2004,
and are available
at
http://www.bls.gov/1au/lausmsa.htm and in the May issue of Employment and Earnings.
Areas in the six New England states are Metropolitan New England City and Town Areas
(NECTAs), while areas in other states are county-based. Some metropolitan areas lie in
two or more states. They are listed under the state that appears first in their titles.
Davenport-Moline-Rock Island, Iowa-Ill., and Weirton-Steubenville, W. Va.-Ohio, are the
exceptions in that they are listed under Illinois and Ohio, respectively, for operational
reasons.

are subject to revision. Area definitions are based on Office of Management and Budget
Bulletin No. 04-03, dated February 18, 2004, and are available at
http://www.bls.gov/lau/lausmsa.htm and in the May issue of Employment and Earnings.
Areas in the six New England states are Metropolitan New England City and Town
Areas (NECTAs), while areas in other states are county-based. Some metropolitan
areas lie in two or more states. They are listed under the state that appears first in their
titles. Some divisions lie in more than one state, and some, like Camden, N.J., are
totally outside the states under which their metropolitan areas are listed.

Area boundaries do not reflect official OMB definitions.
P = preliminary.
NOTE: State and area data are currently projected from 2004 benchmark levels.
When more recent benchmark data are introduced with the release of January 2006
estimates, unadjusted data from April 2004 are subject to revision. Area definitions are
based on Office of Management Budget Bulletin No. 04-03, dated February 18,2004, and
are available at http://www.bls.gov/lau/lausmsa.htm and in the May issue of Employment
and Earnings. Areas in the six New England states are Metropolitan New England City
and Town Areas (NECTAs), while areas in other states are county-based. Some
metropolitan areas lie in two or more states. They are listed under the state that appears
first in their titles. Davenport-Moline-Rock Island, Iowa-Ill., and Weirton-Steubenville, W.
Va.-Ohio, are the exceptions in that they are listed under Illinois and Ohio, respectively,
for operational reasons.

Metropolitan New England City and Town Areas (NECTAs), while areas in other
states are county-based. Some metropolitan areas lie in two or more states. They
are listed under the state that appears first in their titles. Some divisions lie in more
than one state, and some, like Camden, N.J., are totally outside the states under
which their metropolitan areas are listed.

states are Metropolitan New England City and Town Areas (NECTAs), while areas
in other states are county-based. Some metropolitan areas lie in two or more
states. They are listed under the state that appears first in their titles.
Davenport-Moline-Rock island, Iowa-Ill., and Weirton-Steubenville, W.Va-Ohio, are
the exceptions in that they are listed under Illinois and Ohio, respectively, for
operational reasons. Estimates for the latest month are revised the following month,
and at least 3 years of estimates are subject to revision at the end of the year, to
incorporate updated inputs and reestimation.

Explanatory Notes and Estimates of Error
Introduction
The s t a t i s t i t r~ per'~dical ^re compiled from two
major sources: (I) household interviews, and (2) reports
from employers.
Data based on household interviews are obtained frc a
the Current Population Survey (CPS), a. sample survey >
the population 16 years of age and over. The survey is cc 1
ducted each month by the U.S. Census Bureau for the
Bureau of Labor Statistics and provides comprehensive da It
on the labor force, the employed, and the unemployed, cl«*i ssified by such characteristics as age, sex, race, family relationship, marital status, occupation, and industry attachmei it
The survey also provides data on the characteristics and pt,s
work experience of those not m the labor force The mf< r
mation is collected by trained interviewers from a sample
of about 60,000 households (beginning with July 2001 data
located ir 754 sample areap These areas are chose i to re r
resent all counties and independent cities in the Unitec
States, wita co eiagc m 50 States and the District
Columbia. Hie data collected are based on the activity or
status leported fu rhe calendar week including the 12th >
the month.
Data based on establishment records are compiled each
month through the use of fouuhtone data entry, ccmputc
assisted telephone interviewing, and electronic data inte rchange or by mail >r fax, or on magnetic tape oi compui i
diskette The Current i mploymeni Statistics (CES) <urv y
is designed tu pro ide industry i formanon on nonfai r
wage and salary employment ~ver*»ge weekly hours avc
agr hourly earning , and average weekly ear"mg« for ti t
Nation, States, and metropolitan areas. The employment,
hours, and earnings series are based on payroll reports from
a sample that mdKlts about 160 000 businesses and go
ernment agencies covering approximately 400.000 individual worksites. The sample is drawn from a sampling frame
of over 8 million unemployment insurance tax accounts.
The active CES sample includes approximately one-third
of all nonfarm payic 11 workers The daia relate tu all worJ
ers, full m part time vho rece-ve pay during the payi\ ll
period that includes the 12th ot the month.
tics, for example, are obtained only from the household survey, whereas detailed industrial classifications are much more
reliably derived from establishment reports.
Data from these two sources differ from each other
because of variations in definitions and coverage, source of
information, methods of collection, and estimating procedures. Sampling variability and response errors are additional reasons for discrepancies. The major factors that have
a differential effect on the levels and trends of the two data
series are as follows.
Employment
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 reference week in family-operated enterprises.
Employment in both agricultural and nonagricultural industries is included. The payroll survey covers only wage
and salary employees on the payrolls of nonfarm establishments.
Multiple jobholding. The household survey provides
information on the work status of the population without
duplication, because each person is classified as employed,
unemployed, or not in the labor force. Employed persons
holding more than one job are counted only once. In the
figures based on establishment reports, persons who worked
in more than one establishment during the reporting period
are counted each time their names appear on payrolls.
RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THE HOUSEHOLD
AND ESTABLISHMENT SERIES
Unpaid absences from jobs. The household survey includes
among the employed all civilians who had jobs but were
not at work during the reference week—that is, were not
working but had jobs from which they were temporarily
absent because of illness, vacation, bad weather, childcare
problems, or labor-management disputes, or because they
were taking time off for various other i sasons, even if they
were not paid by their employers for :he time off. In the
figures based on payroll reports, persons on leave paid for
by the company are included, but those on leave without
pay for the entire payroll period are no t.
The household and establishment data complement one
another, each providing "igoificae? t rpes of information that
the other cannot suitably supply. Population characteris-
Hours of work
The household survey measures hours worked for all workers, whereas the payroll survey measures hours for
private production or nonsupervisory workers paid for by
employers. In the household survey, all persons with a job
but not at work are excluded from the hours distributions
and the computations of average hours at work. In the payroll survey, production or nonsupervisory 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.
Earnings
The household survey measures the earnings of wage and
salary workers in all occupations and industries in both the
private and public sectors. Data refer to the usual earnings
received from the worker's sole or primary job. Data from
the establishment survey generally refer to average earnings of production and related workers in natural resources
and mining and manufacturing; construction workers in
construction; and nonsupervisory employees in private service-providing industries. For a comprehensive discussion
of the various earnings series available from the household
and establishment surveys, see BLS Measures of Compensation, Bulletin 2239 (Bureau of Labor Statistics, 1986).
COMPARABILITY OF HOUSEHOLD DATA
WITH OTHER SERIES
Unemployment insurance data. The unemployed total from
the household survey includes all persons who did not have
a job during the reference week, were currently available
for a job, and were looking for work or were waiting to be
called back to a job from which they had been laid off,
whether or not they were eligible for unemployment insurance. Figures on unemployment insurance claims, prepared
by the Employment and Training Administration of the U.S.
Department of Labor, exclude, in addition to otherwise ineligible persons who do not file claims for benefits, 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 (some workers in agriculture, domestic
services, and religious organizations, and self-employed and
unpaid family workers).
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 U.S. Department
of Agriculture. The principal differences in coverage are
the inclusion of persons under 16 in the National Agricultural Statistics Service series and the treatment of dual jobholders, who are counted more than once if they work on
more than one farm during the reporting period. There also
are wide differences in sampling techniques and data collecting and estimating methods, which cannot be readily
measured in terms of their impact on differences in the levels and trends of the two series.
COMPARABILITY OF PAYROLL EMPLOYMENT
DATA WITH OTHER SERIES
Statistics on manufacturers and business, U.S. Census
Bureau. BLS establishment statistics on employment differ
from employment counts derived by the U.S. Census Bureau
from its censuses or sample surveys of manufacturing and
business establishments. The major reasons for noncomparability are different treatment of business units
considered parts of an establishment, such as central
administrative offices and auxiliary units; the industrial
classification of establishments; and different reporting
patterns by multiunit companies. There also are differences
in the scope of the industries covered—for example, the
Census of Business excludes professional services, public
utilities, and financial establishments, whereas these are
included in the BLS statistics.
County Business Patterns, U.S. Census Bureau. Data in
County Business Patterns (CBP) differ from BLS establishment statistics in the treatment of central administrative offices and auxiliary units. Differences also may arise because
of industrial! classification and reporting practices. In addition, CBP excludes interstate railroads and most of government, and coverage is incomplete for some of the nonprofit
agencies.
Employment covered by State unemployment insurance programs. Most nonfarm wage and salary workers are covered
by the unemployment insurance programs. However, some
employees, such as those working in parochial schools and
churches, are not covered by unemployment insurance, whereas
they are included in the BLS establishment statistics.

COLLFCTION AND COVERAGE
Statistics on the employment status of the population an t

CONCEP r s AND DE FINITIONS
The concepts and definitions underlying labor force d«u
have been modified, but not substantially altered *mce t (
inception of the survey m 1940: those in use as of January
1994 are as follows:

16 years of age and older residing an the 50 States and the
District of Columbia wiio are not inmates of institutions (for
example penal and mental f cilitie~ homes for the agec)
and who are not on active duty in the Armed Forces.
Civilian
persons
All persons wl o, during the -eferen e
week, (a) did any work at all (at least 1 hour) as paid emplo yees worked in their jw i business, profession or on their ov r
farm or worked 15 horns or more is unpaid workers in n

leave, labir managcmeit dispute job training or othe~ fai
ily or personal ieaso is whethei oi - rt they we~e paid for tf c
time off or were seeking other jobs.
Employed
Each employed person is counted only once, even if he or
she holds more than one job. For purposes of occupation and
industry classification, multiple jobholders are counted in
the job at which they worked the greatest number of hours
during the reference week.
Included in the total are employed citizens of foreign countries who are temporarily in the United States but not living
on the premises of an embassy. Excluded are persons whose
only activity consisted of workaround their own house (painting, repairing, or own home housework) or volunteer work
for religious, charitable, and other organizations.
Unemployed persons. All persons who had no employment
during the reference week, were available for work, except
for temporary illness, and had made specific efforts to find
employment sometime during the 4-week period ending with
the reference week. Persons who were waiting to be recalled
to a job from which they had been laid off need not have
been looking for work to be classified as unemployed.
Duration of unemployment This represents the length of
time (through the current reference week) that persons classified as unemployed had been looking for work. For persons on layoff, duration of unemployment represents the
number of full weeks they had been on layoff. Mean duration is the arithmetic average computed from single weeks
of unemployment; median duration is the midpoint of a
distribution of weeks of unemployment.
Reason for unemployment Unemployment also is categorized according to the status of individuals at the time they
began to look for work. The reasons for unemployment are
divided into five major groups: (1) Job losers, comprising
(a) persons on temporary layoff, who have been given a date
to return to work oi who expc ct to return within 6 months
(persons on layoff need not be lookrg for work to qualify as
unemployed), and (b) permam nt job lo ers, whose employment ended mvoluntaiily and who begcin looking for work;
(2) Job leaver persons who quit or otherwise terminated
their errploymen* vol ntarily and imm< diately began looking foi work, (3) Person- who compl ted temporary jobs,
who began looking for work afte~ the jobs ended; (4) Reentrants, persons who previously worked but who were out of
the labor force prior to beginning their job search; and (5)
New entranr, persons who had never w Drked Each of these
five categone of the unemployed ca t be expressed as a
proportion of the entire civilian labor force: the sum of the
four laces thu~ equal the ircmploymer t rate for all civilian
workets (For tanstical presentation purposes 'job losers"
and "persons who completed temporary jobs' are combined
into a «ingle catego y rnt I ~easonal adjustments can be developed for the separate categories.)
Jobseekers. All unemployed persons who made specific
efforts to find a job sometime during the 4-week period preceding the survey week are classified as jobseekers. Jobseekers do not include persons classified as on temporary
layoff, who, although often looking for work, are not
required to do so to be classified as unemployed. Jobseekers
are grouped by the methods used to seek work. Only active
methods-—which have the potential to result in a job offer
without further action on the part of the jobseeker—qualify
as job search. Examples include going to an employer
directly or to a public or private employment agency, seeking assistance from friends or relatives, placing or answering
ads, or using some other active method. Examples of the
"other" category include being on a union or professional
register, obtaining assistance from a community
organization, or waiting at a designated labor pickup point.
Passive methods, which do not qualify as job search, include
reading (as opposed to answering or placing) "help wanted"
ads and taking a job training course.
Labor force. This group comprises all persons classified as
employed or unemployed in accordance with the criteria
described above.
Unemployment rate. The unemployment rate represents the
number unemployed as a percent of the labor force.
Participation rate. This represents the proportion of the population that is in the labor force.
EmptoymenUpopulation ratio. This represents the proportion of the population that is employed.
Not in the laborforce. Included in this group are all persons
in the civilian noninstitutional population who are neither
employed nor unemployed. Information is collected on their
desire for and availability to take a job at the time of the CPS
interview, job search activity in the prior year, and reason for
not looking in the 4-week period prior to the survey week.
This group includes discouraged workers, defined as persons not in the labor force who want and are available for a
job and who have looked for work sometime in the past 12
months (or since the end of their last job if they held one
within the past 12 months), but who are not currently looking because they believe there are no jobs available or there
are none for which they would qualify.
Persons classified as not in the labor force who are in
the sample for either their fourth or eighth month are
asked additional questions relating to job history and
workseeking intentions. These latter data are available on a
quarterly basis.
Occupation, industry, and class of worker. This information
for the employed applies to the job held in the reference
week. Persons with two or more jobs are classified in the job
at which they worked the greatest number of hours. The
unemployed are classified according to their last job.
Beginning in 2003, the occupational and industrial
classification of CPS data is based on the 2002 Census
Bureau occupational and industrial classification systems
which are derived from the 2000 Standard Occupational
Classification (SOC) and the 2002 North American Industry
Classification System (NAICS). (See the following section
on historical comparability for a discussion of previous
classification systems used in the CPS.)
The class-of-worker breakdown assigns workers to the
following categories: Private and government wage and
salary workers, self-employed workers, and unpaid family
workers. Wage and salary workers receive wages, salary,
commissions, tips, or pay in kind from a private employer or
from a government unit. Self-employed persons are those
who work for profit or fees in their own business, profession,
trade, or farm. Only the unincorporated self-employed are
included in the self-employed category in the classof-worker typology. Self-employed persons who respond
that their businesses are incorporated are included among
wage and salary workers because, technically, they are
paid employees of a corporation. 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 birth or
marriage.
Multiple jobholders. These are; employed persons who, during the reference week, either had two or more jobs as a wage
and salary worker, were self-employed and also held a wage
and salary job, or worked as an unpaid family worker and
also held a wage and salary job. Excluded are self-employed
persons with multiple businesses and persons with multiple
jobs as unpaid family workers.
Hours of work. These statistics relate to the actual number of
hours worked during the reference week. For example, persons who normally work 40 hours a week but were off on the
Columbus Day holiday would be reported as working 32
hours, even though they were paid for the holiday. For persons working in more than one job, the published figures
relate to the number of hours worked in all jobs during the
week; all the hours are credited to the major job. Unpublished data are available for the hours worked in each job
and for usual hours.
At work part time for economic reasons. Sometimes referred to as involuntary part time, this category refers to individuals who gave an economic reason for working 1 to 34
hours during the reference week. Economic reasons include
slack work or unfavorable business conditions, inability to
find full-time work, and seasonal declines in demand. Those
who usually work part time must also indicate that they want
and are available for full-time work to be classified as on part
time for economic reasons.
At work part time for noneconomic reasons. This group includes those persons who usually work part time and were at
work 1 to 34 hours during the reference week for a noneconomic reason. Noneconomic reasons include, for example:
Illness or other medical limitations, childcare problems or
other family or personal obligations, school or training, retirement or Social Security limits on earnings, and being in a
job where full-time work is less than 35 hours. The group
also includes those who gave an economic reason for
usually working 1 tu 34 hours brt said they do not ws.nl
to work full time or are unavailable tor such work,.
Usual full- or part-time status. Data on persons "at work'5'
exclude persons who were temporarily absent from a job and
therefore classified m the zero-hours-worked category, "with

Usual weekly earnings. Data represent earnings before taxes
and other deductions, and include any overtime pay, commissions, or tips usually received (at the main job, in the case
of multiple jobholders). Earnings reported on a basis other
than weekly (for example, annual, monthly, hourly) are converted to weekly. The term "usual" is as perceived by the
respondent. If the respondent asks for a definition of usual,
inte~ iewcrs are instructed to define the term as more than

HISTORICAL COMPARABILITY
Changes in concepts and methods
While current survey concepts and methods are very similar
to those introduced at the inception of the survey in 1940, a
number of changes have been made over the years to
improve the accuracy and usefulness of the data. Some of
the most important changes include:
• In 1945, the questionnaire was radically changed with
the introduction of four basic employment questions. Prior
to that time, the survey did not contain specific question
wording, but, rather, relied on a complicated scheme of
activity prioritization.
• In 1953, the current 4-8-4 rotation system was adopted,
whereby households are interviewed for 4 consecutive
months, leave the sample for 8 months, and then return to the
sample for the same 4 months of the following year. Before
this system was introduced, households were interviewed
for 6 consecutive months and then replaced. The new system
provided some year-to-year overlap in the sample, thereby
improving measurement over time.
• In 1955, the survey reference week was changed to the
calendar week including the 12th day of the month, for greater
consistency with the reference period used for other labor-related statistics. Previously, the calendar week containing the
8th day of the month had been used as the reference week.
• In 1957, the employment definition was modified slightly
as a result of a comprehensive interagency review of labor
force concepts and methods. Two relatively small groups of
persons classified as employed, under "with a job but not at
work," were assigned to different classifications. Persons on
layoff with definite instructions to return to work within 30
days of the layoff date, and persons volunteering that they
were waiting to start a new wage and salary job within 30 days
of interview, were, for the most part, reassigned to the unemployed classification. The only exception was the small subgroup in school during the reference week but waiting to start
new jobs, which was transferred to not in the labor force.
• In 1967, more substantive changes were made as a result of the recommendations of the President's Committee
to Appraise Employment and Unemployment Statistics (the
Gordon Committee). The principal improvements were as
follows:
a) A 4-week job search period and specific questions on
jobseeking activity were introduced. Previously, the questionnaire was ambiguous as to the period for jobseeking,
and there were no specific questions concerning job search
methods.
b) An availability test was introduced whereby a person
must be currently available for work in order to be classified
as unemployed. Previously, there was no such requirement.
This revision to the concept mainly affected students, who,
for example, may begin to look for summer jobs in the spring
although they will not be available until June or July. Such
persons, until 1967, had been classified as unemployed but
since have been assigned to the "not in the labor force"
category.
c) Persons "with ajob but not at work" because of strikes,
bad weather, etc., who volunteered that they were looking
for work were shifted from unemployed status to employed.
d) The lower age limit for official statistics on employment, unemployment, and other labor force concepts was
raised from 14 to 16 years. Historical data for most major
series have been revised to provide consistent information
based on the new minimum age limit.
e) New questions were added to obtain additional information on persons not in the labor force, including those
referred to as "discouraged workers," defined as persons who
indicate that they want a job but are not currently looking
because they believe there are no jobs available or none for
which they would qualify.
f) New "probing" questions were added to the questionnaire in order to increase the reliability of information on
hours of work, duration of unemployment, and self-employment.
• In 1994, major changes to the Current Population Survey (CPS) were introduced, which included a complete redesign of the questionnaire and the use of computer-assisted
interviewing for the entire survey. In addition, there were
revisions to some of the labor force concepts and definitions, including the implementation of some changes recommended in 1979 by the National Commission on Employment and Unemployment Statistics (NCEUS, also
known as the Levitan Commission). Some of the major
changes to the survey were:
a) The introduction of a redesigned and automated questionnaire. The CPS questionnaire was totally redesigned in
order to obtain more accurate, comprehensive, and relevant
information, and to take advantage of state-of-the-art computer interviewing techniques.
b) The addition of two, more objective, criteria to the
definition of discouraged workers. Prior to 1994, to be classified as a discouraged worker, a person must have wanted a
job and been reported as not currently looking because of a
belief that no jobs were available or that there were none for
which he or she would qualify. Beginning in 1994, persons
classified as discouraged must also have looked for a job
within the past year (or since their last job, if they worked
during the year), and must have been available for work
during the reference week (a direct question on availability
was added in 1994; prior to 1994, availability had been
inferred from responses to other questions). These changes
were made because the NCEUS and others felt that the previous definition of discouraged workers was too subjective,
relying mainly on an individual's stated desire for ajob and
not on prior testing of the labor market.
c) Similarly, the identification of persons employed part
time for economic reasons (working less than 35 hours in the
reference week because of poor business conditions or because of an inability to find full-time work) was tightened
by adding two new criteria for persons who usually work
part time: They must want and be available for full-time
work. Previously, such information was inferred. (Persons
who usually work ~uF tiire but worked part tine ror an e^
nomic reason during the reference week are assumed to meet
these criteria.)
d) Specific questions were adde 3 about the expectatior c r
h
recall for p rsons v ho indicate that they are on layoff
classified "on temporary layoff persons must expect 1c i
recalled to their jobs Previously, the questionnaire die! c L
include explicit questions about the expectation of ie all

NoncomparabHlity of labor force levels
In addition to the n funements m concepts, definitions a
methods made ovei tlie years other changes aiso have l
lected the comparability of the labor force data.
• Beginning m 1953. as a result ot introducing data from
the 1950 census into the estimating procedures, popu
tion levels were raised by about 600,000, labor fori
total employment, and agricultural employment were
increased by about 3 50 300, pranan) / affecting the fipures i »

unaffected.
• In March 1973, a subsequent population adjustment based
on the 1970 census was introduced. This adjustment, which
affected the white and black-and-other groups but had little
effect on totals, resulted in the reduction of nearly 300,000
m the white populat on and an r crease of the same magnitude
m the black and other population Civilian labor force and
total employment figures were affected to a lesser degree; the
white labor force was reduced by 150 000, and the blackand-other labor force rose by about 210,000. Unemployment
levels and rates were not significantly affected.
Beginning in January 1974, the method used to prepare mdepenciert estimates of the civilian noninstitutional
population was modified to an "inflation-deflation" approach This change in die derivation of the estimates had
its greatest impact on estimates of 20 to 24-year-old men—
particularly those in the black-and-other population—but
had little effect on estimates of the total population 16 years
and over Additional information on the adjustment procedure appears m ' CPS Population Controls Derived from Inflation Deflat on Method of Estimation,' m the February
1974 issue of this publication.
• Effective in July 1973, as a result of the large inflow of
Vietnamese refugee tu the United States the total and blackand other independent population controls for persons 16
years and over w re adjusted upward by 76,000—30,000
men and 46 000 WOL en The addition of the refugees increased the black-and-other population by less than 1 percent i ii any age sex /roup, w*th all of the changes being

Beginning in Ociobei 1978, the rcce of the individual
was determined by the ho sehold espondent for the
incoming rotation group households, rather than by the
mterv ewes a? before The ptrpose ot this change was to
provide more accurate estimates of characteristics by race.
Thus, in October 1978, one-eighth of the sample households
had race determined by the household respondent and seveneighths of the sample households had race determined by

• Beginning in January 1979, the first-stage ratio adjustment method was changed in the CPS estimation procedure.
Differences between the old and new procedures existed only
for metropolitan and nonmetropolitan area estimates, not
for the total United States. The reasoning behind the change
• Beginning m 1960, the inclusion of Alaska and Hawaii
resulted m inc~eases of about 500,000 i the populati
and about 300,000 m the labor force. Four-tifths of the
labor force mcreas was in nonagricultural employme
other labor lirce categories were not appreciably oJCieuted
and an indication of the differences appear in "Revisions in
the Current Population Survey in January 1979" in the February 1979 issue of this publication.
• Beginning in January 1982, the second-stage ratio adjustment method was changed. The rationale for the change
and an indication of its effect on national estimates of labor
force characteristics appear in "Revisions in the Current Population Survey Beginning in January 1982" in the February
1982 issue of this publication. In addition, current population estimates used in the second-stage estimation procedure were derived from information obtained from the 1980
census, rather than the 1970 census. This change caused
substantial increases in the total population and in the estimates of persons in all labor force categories. Rates for labor
force characteristics, however, remained virtually unchanged.
Some 30,000 labor force series were adjusted back to 1970
to avoid major breaks in series. The adjustment procedure
used also is described in the February 1982
article cited above. The revisions did not, however, smooth
out the breaks in series occurring between 1972 and 1979
(described above), and data users should consider them when
comparing estimates from different periods.
• Beginning in January 1983, the first-stage ratio adjustment method was updated to incorporate data from the 1980
census. The rationale for the change and an indication of its
effect on national estimates for labor force characteristics
appear in "Revisions in the Current Population Survey
Beginning in January 1983" in the February 1983 issue of
this publication. There were only slight differences between
the old and new procedures in estimates of levels for the
various labor force characteristics and virtually no differences in estimates of participation rates.
• Beginning in January 1985, most of the steps of the
CPS estimation procedure—the noninterview adjustment,
the first- and second-stage ratio adjustments, and the composite estimator—were revised. These procedures are described in the Estimating Methods section. A description of
the changes and an indication of their effect on national
estimates of labor force characteristics appear in "Changes
in the Estimation Procedure in the Current Population Survey Beginning in January 1985" in the February 1985 issue
of this publication. Overall, the revisions had only a slight
effect on most estimates. The greatest impact was on estimates of persons of Hispanic origin. Major estimates were
revised back to January 1980.
• Beginning in January 1986, the population controls used
in the second-stage ratio adjustment method were revised to
reflect an explicit estimate of the number of undocumented
immigrants (largely Hispanic) since 1980 and an improved
estimate of the number of emigrants among legal foreign-born
residents for the same period. As a result, the total civilian
population and labor force estimates were raised by nearly
400,000; civilian employment was increased by about
350,000. The Hispanic-origin population and labor force estimates were raised by about 425,000 and 305,000, respectively,
and Hispanic employment was increased by 270,000. Overall
and subgroup unemployment levels and rates were not significantly affected. Because of the magnitude of the adjustments
for Hispanics, data were revised back to January 1980 to the
extent possible. An explanation of the changes and an indication of their effect on estimates of labor force characteristics
appear in "Changes in the Estimation Procedure in the Current
Population Survey Beginning in January 1986" in the February 1986 issue of this publication.
• Beginning in August 1989, the second-stage ratio estimation procedures were changed slightly to decrease the
chance of very small cells occurring and to be more consistent with published age, sex;, race cells. This change had
virtually no effect on national estimates.
• Beginning in January 1994, 1990 census-based population controls, adjusted for the estimated undercount, were
introduced into the second-stage estimation procedure. This
change resulted in substantial increases in total population
and in all major labor force categories. Effective February
1996, these controls were introduced into the estimates for
1990-93. Under the new population controls, the civilian
noninstitutional population for 1990 increased by about 1.1
million, employment by about 880,000, and unemployment
by approximately 175,000. The overall unemployment rate
rose by about 0.1 percentage point. For further information,
see "Revisions in the Current Population Survey Effective
January 1994," and "Revisions in Household Survey Data
Effective February 1996" in the February 1994 and March
1996 issues, respectively, of this publication.
Additionally, for the period January through May 1994,
the composite estimation procedure was suspended for technical and logistical reasons.
• Beginning in January 11997, the population controls
used in the second-stage ratio adjustment method were revised to reflect updated information on the demographic characteristics of immigrants to, amd emigrants from, the United
States. As a result, the civilian noninstitutional population
16 years and over was raised by about 470,000. The labor
force and employment levels were increased by about
320,000 and 290,000, respectively. The Hispanic-origin
population and labor force estimates were raised by about
450,000 and 250,000, respectively, and Hispanic employment was increased by 325,000. Overall and subgroup unemployment rates and other percentages of labor market participation were not affected. An explanation of the changes
and an indication of their effect on national labor force estimates appear in "Revisions in the Current Population Survey Effective January 1997" in the February 1997 issue of
this publication.
• Beginning in January 1998, new composite estimation
procedures and minor revisions in the population controls
were introduced into the household survey. The new composite estimation procedures simplify processing of the
monthly labor force data at BLS, allow users of the survey
microdata to more easily replicate the official .estimate;:?
released by BLS, and increase the reliability of the employ ment and labor force estimates. The new procedures also pr oduce somewhat lower estimates of the civilian labor force
and employment and slightly higher estimates of unemployment. For example, based on 1997 annual average data, the,
differences resulting from the use of old and new composite
weights were as follows: Civilian labor force (-229.000), total
employed (-256,000) and total unemployed (+>7,00* )
Unemployment rate s were not significantly affected

• B< <nn~ing m January 20U3, sevc rat major changes wci
introduced into the CPC The~e change i" eluded
a) Population con ro s that reflected the results of G nsL

process These new population controls substantial!
increast d the size of he civilian numnstitutional populatio
and the civil*an labor tone Data fro i January 2000 througi
December 2002 were revised to reflect the higher population
estimates from Census 2000 and the higher rates of
population growth smte the vtmu
At the start of th
revision period (January 2000^, th" new controls raised th
civilian noninstitutional population and the civilian labor
force by 2.6 and 1.6 million, respectively. By December
2002, the civilian population and labor force were 3.8 and
2.5 million, respectively, higher than originally estimated.
In addition to these revisions, the U.S. Census Bureau
introduced another large upward adjustment to the
population controls as part of its annual update of population estimates for 2003. The entire amount of this adjustment was added to the labor force data in January 2003
resulting in increases of 941,000 to the civilian
noninstitutional population and 614,000 to the civilian
labor force. The unemployment rate and other ratios were
not substantially affected by either of these population
control adjustments.
b) The modification of the questions m race and Hispanic
origin to comply with new standard s for maintaining,
collecting, and presenting Federal data on race and ethnicity
for Federal statistical agencies. In accordance with the new
standards, the following changes were made to the CPS
questions: 1) Individuals were now asked whether they are
of Hispanic ethnicity before being asked about their race.
Prior to 2003, individuals were asked their ethnic origin
after they were asked about their race. 2) Individuals were
now asked directly if they are Spanish, Hispanic, or Latino.
Previously, individuals were identified as Hispanic based
on their, or their ancestors', country of origin. 3) With respect
to race, the response category of Asian and Pacific Islanders
was split into two categories: a) Asian and b) Native Hawaiian
or Other Pacific Islaiders 4) Individuals were allowed to
choose more than one race category Prior to 2003,
individuals who considered themselves to belong to more
than one race were required to select a single primary race.
5) The questions were reworded to indicate that individuals
ould select more than one r tee category and to convey
more clearly that individuals should report their own
jerception of what then race is These changes had no impact
jn the overall civilian noninstitutional population and
civilian tabor force but did reduce the population and labor
force levels of whites, blacks or African Americans, and
Asians beginning in January 2003. For whites and blacks,
the differences resulted from the exclusion of individuals
who reported more than one race from those groups. For
Asians, the difference resulted from the same restriction as
well as the split of the old Asian and Pacific Islander category
into two separate categories. Analysis of data from a special
CPS supplement conducted in May 2002 indicated that these
changes reduced the population and labor force levels for
whites by about 950,000 and 730,000, respectively, and for
blacks and African Americans by about 320,000 and 240,000,
respectively, while having little or no impact on their
unemployment rates. For Asians, the changes had the effect
of reducing the their population by about 1.1 million and
their labor force by about 720,000, but did not have a
statistically significant effect on their unemployment rate.
The changes did not affect the size of the Hispanic or Latino
I opulat on and had no significant imp act on the size of
their labor force but d d cau_e an nc~e se of about half a
percentage point in their unemployment rate.
c) Improvements were introduced to both the secondstage and composite weighting procedures. These changes
adapted the weighting procedures to the new race/ethnic
classification system and enhanced the stability over time
of national and State/substate labor force estimates for
demographic groups.
More detailed information on these changes and an
indication of their effect on national labor force estimates
appear in "Revisions to the Current Population Survey

• Beginning in January 2004, the population controls
used in the survey were updated to reflect revised estimates
of net international migration for 2000 through 2003. The
updated controls resulted in a decrease of 560,000 in the
estimated size of the civilian noninstitutional population
16 years of age and over for December 2003. The civilian
labor force and employment levels decreased by 437,000
and 409,000, respectively. The Hispanic or Latino population and labor force estimates declined by 583,000 and
446,000, respectively and Hispanic or Latino employment
was lowered by 421,000. The updated controls had little or
no effect on overall and subgroup unemployment rates and
measures of labor market participation. More detailed
information on the effect of the updated controls on
national labor force estimates appears in "Adjustments to
Household Survey Population Estimates in January 2004"
in the February 2004 issue of this publication available on
the Internet at http://www.bls.gov/cps/cps04adj.pdf.
• Beginning in January 2005, the population controls used
in the survey were adjusted to reflect revised estimates of
net international migration and updated vital statistics
information. The updated controls resulted in a decrease of
8,000 in the estimated size of the civilian noninstitutional
population 16 years of age and over for December 2004. The
civilian labor force and employment levels decreased by
49,000 and 45,000, respectively. The updated controls had
no effect on overall and subgroup unemployment rates and
measures of labor market participation such the labor force
participation rate and the employment-population ratio. More

national labor estimates appears in "Adjustments to

Changes in the occupational and industrial
classification systems
Beginning in 1971, the comparability of occupational
employment data was affected as a result of changes in the
occupational classification system for the 1970 census that
were introduced into the CPS. Comparability was further
affected in December 1971, when a question relating to
major activity or duties was added to the monthly CPS ques-
tionnaire in order to more precisely determine the occupational
classification of individuals. A s a result of these changes, meaningful comparisons of occupational employment levels could
not be made between 1971-72 and prior years nor between
those 2 years. Unemployment rates were not significantly
affected. For a further explanation of the changes in the occupational classification system, see"Revisions in Occupational
Classifications for 1971" and "Revisions in the Current Population Survey" in the February 1971 and February 1972 issues,
respectively, of this publication:
Beginning in January 1983, the occupational and industrial
classification systems used in the 1980 census were introduced
into the CPS. The 1980 census occupational classification
system evolved from the Standard Occupational Classification
(SOC) system and was so radically different in concepts and
nomenclature from the 1970 system that comparisons of
historical data are not possible without major adjustments. For
example, the 1980 major group "sales occupations" is
substantially larger than the 1970 category "sales workers."
Major additions include "cashiers" from "clerical workers" and
some self-employed proprietors in retail trade establishments
from "managers and administrators, except farm."
The industrial classification system used in the 1980 census was based on the 1972 Standard Industrial Classification
(SIC) system, as modified in 1977. The adoption of the new
system had much less of an adverse effect on historical comparability than did the new occupational system. The most
notable changes from the 1970 system were the transfer of
farm equipment stores from "retail" to "wholesale" trade and
of postal service from "public: administration" to "transportation," and some interchange between "professional and
related services" and "public administration." Additional information on the 1980 census occupational and industrial
classification systems appears in "Revisions in the Current
Population Survey Beginning in January 1983" in the February 1983 issue of this publication.
Beginning in January 1992, the occupational and industrial classification systems used in the 1990 census were introduced into the CPS. (These systems were based largely on the
1980 Standard Occupational Classification (SOC) and 1987
Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) systems, respectively.)
There were a few breaks in comparability between the 1980
and 1990 census-based systems, particularly within the "technical, sales, and administrative support" categories. The most
notable changes in industry classification were the shift of
several industries from "business services" to "professional
services" and the splitting of some industries into smaller,
more detailed categories. A number of industry titles were
changed as well, with no change in content.
Beginning in January 2003, the 2002 Census Bureau
occupational and industrial classification systems were
introduced into the CPS. These systems were derived from
the 2000 Standard Occupational Classification (SOC) and
the 2002 North American Industry Classification System
(NAICS). The composition of detailed occupational and
industrial classifications in the new classification systems
was substantially changed from the previous systems in u -,e
• as was the structure for aggregating them into broad groups,
Consequently, the use of the new classification systems
created breaks in existing data series at all levels of
aggregation. Additional information on the 2002 Cer^is

PSUs provides greater heterogeneity; a typical PSU includes
urban and rural residents of both high and low economic
levels and encompasses, to the extent feasible, diverse occupations and industries. Another important consideration
is that the PSU be sufficiently compact so that, with a small
sample spread throughout, it can be efficiently canvassed
without undue travel cost.
The 2,025 PSUs are grouped into strata within each State.
Then, one PSU is selected from each stratum with the probability of selection proportional to the population of the
PSU. Nationally, there are a total of 446 PSUs in strata by
themselves. These strata are self-representing and are generally the most populous PSUs in each State. The 328 remaining strata are formed by combining PSUs that are similar in
such characteristics as unemployment, proportion of housing units with three or more persons, number of persons
employed in various industries, and average monthly wages
for various industries. The single PSU randomly selected
from each of these strata is nonself-representing because it
represents not only itself but the entire stratum. Hie probability of selecting a particular PSU in a rionself-representing stratum is proportional to its 2000 population. For
example, within a stratum, the chance that a PSU with a
population of 50,000 would be selected for the sample is
twice that for a PSU having a population of 25,000.
Selection of sample households. Because the sample design is
State based, the sampling ratio differs by State and depends on
State population size as well as both national and State reliability requirements. The State sampling ratios range roughly
from 1 in every 100 households to 1 in every 3,000 house holds. The sampling ratio occasionally is modified slightly to
hold the size of the sample relatively constant given the overall growth of the population. The sampling ratio used within a
sample PSU depends on the probability of selection of the PSU
and the sampling ratio for the State. In a sample PSU with a
probability of selection of 1 in 10 and a State sampling ratio of
3,000, a within-PSU sampling ratio of 1 in 300 achieves the
desired ratio of 1 in 3,000 for the stratum.
The 2000 within-PSU sample design was developed using
block-level data from Census 2000. Normally, census blocks
are bounded by streets and other prominent physical features such as rivers or railroad tracks. County, minor civil
division, and census place limits also serve as block boundaries. In cities, blocks can be bounded by four streets and be
quite small in land area. In rural areas, blocks can be several
square miles in size.
For the purpose of sample selection, census blocks were
grouped into three strata: Unit, group quarters, and area.
(Occasionally, units within a block were split between the
unit and group-quarters strata.) The unit stratum contained
regular housing units with addresses that were easy to locate
(for example, most single-family homes, townhouses, condominiums, apartment units, and mobile homes). The groupquarters stratum contained housing units in which residents
shared common facilities or received formal or authorized
care or custody. Unit and group-quarters blocks exist prima-
rily in urban areas. The area stratum contains blocks with
addresses that are more difficult to locate. Area blocks exist
primarily in rural areas.
To reduce the variability of the survey estimates and to ensure that the within-PSU sample would reflect the demographic
and socioeconomic characteristics of the PSU, blocks within
the unit, group-quarters, and area strata were sorted using geographic and block-level data from the census. Examples of the
census variables used for sorting include proportion of minority renter-occupied housing units, proportion of housing units
with female householders, and proportion of owner-occupied
housing units. The specific sorting variables used differed by
type of PSU (urban or rural) and stratum.
Within each block, housing units were sorted geographically. A systematic sample of these units was then selected
independently from each stratum using the appropriate withinPSU sampling ratio. The geogra phic sorting of the sample units
reduces field representative travel costs. Prior to interviewing,
special listing procedures aire used to locate the particular
sample addresses in the group-quarters and area blocks.
Units in the three strata described above all existed at the
time of Census 2000. Through a series of additional procedures, a sample of building permits is included in the CPS to
represent housing units built after the decennial census.
Adding these newly built units keeps the sample up to date
and representative of the population. It also helps to keep
the sample size stable: Over the life of the sample, the addition of newly built housing units compensates for the loss of
"old" units that may be abandoned, demolished, or converted
to nonresidential use.
Rotation of sample. Part of the sample is changed each
month. Each monthly sample is divided into eight representative subsamples or rotation groups. A given rotation group
is interviewed for a total of 8 months, divided into two equal
periods. It is in the sample for 4 consecutive months, leaves
the sample during the following 8 months, and then returns
for another 4 consecutive months. In each monthly sample,
one of the eight rotation groups is in the first month of enumeration, another rotation group is in the second month, and
so on. Under this system, 75 percent of the sample is common from month to month, and 50 percent is common from
year to year for the same month. This procedure provides a
substantial amount of month-to-month and year-to-year overlap in the sample, thus providing better estimates of change
and reducing discontinuities in the data series without burdening any specific group of households with an unduly
long period of inquiry.

cal Area (MSA) status and size. Within each cluster, there is
a further breakdown by residence. Each MSA cluster is split
by "central city" and "balance of the MSA." Each non-MSA
cluster is split by "urban" and "rural" residence categories.
The proportion of sample households not interviewed varies
from 7 to 8 percent, depending on weather, vacation, etc.
ESTIMATING METHODS
Under the estimating 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 respon
dents. The estimation procedure involves weighting the data
from each sample person by the inver se of the probability of
the person being in the sample. This gives a rough measure
of the number of actual persons that the sample person repre
sents. Since 1985, most sample persons within the same Statehave had the same probability of sel< etion Some selection
probabilities may differ within a State due to the sample
design or for operat onal reason- Field ubsampling, for ex
ample, which is earned out when areas "elected for the sample
are found to contain many more hou >eholds than expected,
may cause probability s of selection to differ for some sample
areas within a State Through " series of estimation steps
(outlined below), the ,>ekction probabilities are adjusted for
noninterviews and survey undercoveiage; data from pievious months are incorporated into the estimates through the
composite estimation procedure.,
L Noninterview adjustment The weights for all interviewed
households are adjusted to account for occupied sample
households for which no information was obtained because
of absence, impassable roads, refusals, or unavailability of
the respondents for other reasons. This noninterview adjustment is made separately for clusters of similar sample areas
that are usually, but not necessarily, contained within a State.
Similarity of sample areas is based on Metropolitan Statisti-
2. Ratio estimates. The distribution of the population selected for the sample may differ somewhat, by chance, from
that of the population as a whole in such characteristics as
age, race, sex, and State of residence. Because these characteristics are closely correlated with labor force participation
and other principal measurements made from the sample, the
survey estimates can be substantially improved when
weighted appropriately by the known distribution of these
population characteristics. This is accomplished through
two stages of ratio adjustment, as follows:
a. First-stage ratio estimation. The purpose of the firststage ratio adjustment is to reduce the contribution to variance that results from selecting a sample of PSUs rather than
drawing sample households from every PSU in the Nation
This adjustment is made to the CPS weights in two race cells
Black and nonblack; it is applied only to PSUs that are not
self-representing and for those States that have a substantial
number of black households. The procedure- corrects for differences that existed in each State cell at the time of Census
2000 between 1) the race distribution of the population in
sample PSUs and 2) the race distribution of all PSUs. (Both 1
and 2 exclude self-representing PSUs.)
b. National coverage adjustment. The purpose of this
step is to improve the adjustment for subpopulations most
prone to undercoverage, It adjusts CPS ample weights to
independent population estimates ror 34 white non-
Hispanic, 26 black non-Hispanic, 18 Asian non-Hispanic,
18 residual race non-Hispanic, 26 white Hispanic, and 4
non-white Hispanic age-sex cells.
c. State coverage adjustment. This step adjusts CPS
sample weights to independent state population estimates.
The number of age-sex cells for each state varies, depending
on the black and nonblack population.
d. Second-stage ratio estimation. This procedure substantially reduces the variability of estimates and corrects, to
some extent, for CPS undercoverage. A national-coverage
step and a State-coverage step make preliminary corrections
for undercoverage. The CPS sample weights are then
adjusted to ensure that sample-based estimates of population match independent population controls. Three sets of
controls are used in different steps of the procedure:
1) State step: Civilian noninstitutional population
controls for 6 age-sex cells in the Los Angeles-Long Beach
metropolitan area, the balance of California, New York City,
the balance of New York State, each of the other 48 States,
and the District of Columbia.
2) Ethnicity step: National civilian noninstitutional
population controls for 26 Hispanic and 26 non-Hispanic
age-sex cells.
3) Race step: National civilian noninstitutional
population controls for 34 white, 26 black, and 26 Asianplus-residual-race age-sex cells.
The independent population controls are prepared by projecting forward the resident population as enumerated on
April 1, 2000. The projections are derived by updating
demographic census data with information from a variety of
other data sources that account for births, deaths, and net
migration. Estimated numbers of resident Armed Forces
personnel and institutionalized persons reduce the resident
population to the civilian noninstitutional population. Prior
to January 2003, the projections were based on earlier
censuses. See "Revisions to the Current Population Survey
Effective in January 2003," in the February 2003 issue of
this publication for a detailed discussion of changes to the
second-stage weighting and composite estimating procedures that were introduced in January 2003.
3. Composite estimation procedure. The last step in the
preparation of most CPS estimates makes use of a composite
estimation procedure. The composite estimate consists of a
weighted average of two factors: The two-stage ratio estimate based on the entire sample from the current month and
the composite estimate for the previous month, plus an estimate of the month-to-month change based on the six rotation groups common to both months. In addition, a bias
adjustment term is added to the weighted average to
account for relative bias associated with month-in-sample
estimates. This month-in-sample bias is exhibited by
unemployment estimates for persons in their first and fifth
months in the CPS being generally higher than estimates
obtained for the other months.
The composite estimate results in a reduction in the sampling error beyond that which is achieved after the two stages
of ratio adjustment. For some items, the reduction is substantial. The resultant gains in reliability are greatest in estimates
of month-to-month change, although gains usually are also
obtained for estimates of level in a given month, change from
year to year, and change over other intervals of time.
Rounding of estimates
The sums of individual items may not always equal the totals shown in the same tables because of independent rounding of totals and components to the nearest thousand. Similarly, sums of percent distributions may not always equal
100 percent because of rounding. Differences, however, are
insignificant.
Reliability of the estimates
An estimate based on a sample survey has two types of error
sampling error and nonsampling error. The estimated standard errors provided in this publication are approximations
of the true sampling errors. They incorporate the
effect of some nonsampling errors in response and enumeration, but do not account for any systematic biases in the
data.
Nonsampling error. The full extent of nonsampling error is
unknown, but special studies have been conducted to quantify some sources of nonsampling error in the CPS. The
effect of nonsampling error is small on estimates of relative
change, such as month-to-month change; estimates of
monthly levels tend to be affected to a greater degree.
Nonsampling errors in surveys can be attributed to many
sources, for example, the inability to obtain information about
all persons in the sample; differences in the interpretation of
questions; inability or unwillingness of respondents to provide correct information; inability of respondents to recall
information; errors made in collecting and processing the
data; errors made in estimating values for missing data; and
failure to represent all sample households and all persons
within sample households (undercoverage).
Nonsampling errors occurring in the interview phase of
the survey are studied by means of a reinterview program.
This program is used to estimate various sources of error, as
well as to evaluate and control the work of the interviewers.
A random sample of each interviewer's work is inspected
through reinterview at regular intervals. The results indicate, among other things, that the data published from the
CPS are subject to moderate systematic biases. A description of the CPS reinterview program may be found in Appendix G, "Reinterview: Design and Methodology," of
"The Current Population Survey: Design and Methodology,"
Technical Paper 63RV (Washington, U.S. Census Bureau and
Bureau of Labor Statistics, March 2002), available on the
Internet at www.bls.census.gov/cps/tp/tp63.htm.
The effects of some components of nonsampling error in
the CPS data can be ex amined as a result of the rotation plan
used for the sample, because the level of the estimates varies
by rotation group. A description appears in BarbaraA. Bailsai,
'The Effects of Rotation Group Bias on Estimates from Panel.
Surveys," Journal of the American Statistical Association,
March 1975, pp. 23-30.
Undercoverage in the CPS results from missed housing
units and missed persons within sample households. The
CPS covers about 92 percent of the decennial census population (adjusted for census undercount). It is known that the
CPS undercoverage varies with age sex, race, and Hispar x
origin. Generally, undercoverage is larger for men than f >
women and is larger for blacks, Hi ^panics and othei rac <
than for whites. Ratio adjustment to independent age se s
race-origin population controls, as described previous1! r
partially corrects for the biases due to survey undercoverag
However, biases exist in the estimates to the extent that miss? ^
persons in missed households or nus ed persons n mte
viewed households have characteristics different from tho
of interviewed persons in the same ag ^-sex race origin grouj

discussion of various sources of error* and describes aiiemp
to measure them in the CPS.
Sampling error. When a sample, rather than the entire population, is surveyed, estimates differfromthe true population val ues that they represent This difference, or sampling error,
occurs by chance, and its variability is measured by the standard error of the estimate. Sample estimates from a given sur
vey design are unbiased when an average of the estimates from
all possible samples would yield, hypothetically, the true popu
lation value. In this case, the sample estimate and its standard
error can be used to construct approximate confidence inter
vals, or ranges of values that include the true population value
with known probabilities . If the process of selecting a sample
from the population were repeated many times, an estimate
made from each sample, and a suitable estimate of its standard
error calculated for each sample, then:
1. Approximately 68 percent of the intervals from one
standard error below the estimate to one standard error above
the estimate would include the true population value.
2. Approximately 90 percent o1 the intervals from 1 64^
standard errors below the estimate to 1.645 standard errors
above the estimate would include the tiue population value
3. Approximately 95 percent of the mteivals from 1 9u
standard errors below the estimate tc L96 standard errors
above the estimate would include the true population value.
These confidence interval statements are approximately
true for the CPS. Although the estimating methods used in
the CPS do not produce unbiased estimates, biases for most
estimates are believed to be small. Methods for estimating
standard errors reflect not only sampling errors but also some
kinds of nonsampling error. Although both the estimates and
the estimated standard errors depart from the theoretical ideal,
the departures are minor and have little impact on the confidence interval statements. When clarity is needed, an estimated confidence interval is specified to be "approximate,"
as is the estimated standard error used in the computation.
Tables 1-B through 1-D are provided so that approximate
standard errors of estimates can be easily obtained. Tables
1-B and 1-C give approximate standard errors for estimated
monthly levels and rates for selected employment status
characteristics; the tables also provide approximate standard

errors for consecutive month-to-month changes in the
estimates. It is impractical to show approximate standard
errors for all CPS estimates in this publication, so table 1-D
provides parameters and factors that allow the user to
calculate approximate standard errors for a wide range of
estimated levels, rates, and percentages, and also changes
over time. The parameters and factors are used in formulas
that are commonly called generalized variance functions.
The approximate standard errors provided in this publication are based on the sample design and estimation procedures as of 1996, and reflect the population levels and sample
size as of that year. Standard errors for years prior to 1996
may be roughly approximated by applying these adjustments
to the standard errors presented here. (More accurate standard error estimates for historical CPS data may be found in
previous issues of this publication.)
1. For the years 1967 through 1995, multiply the standard
errors by 0.96.
2. For the years 1956 through 1966, multiply the standard
errors by 1.17.
3. For years prior to 1956, multiply the standard errors by
1.44.
Use of tables 1-B and 1-C. These tables provide a quick
reference for standard errors of major characteristics. Table
1-B gives approximate standard errors for estimates of
monthly levels and consecutive month-to-month changes
in levels for major employment status categories. Table 1-C
gives approximate standard errors for estimates of monthly
unemployment rates and consecutive month-to-month
changes in unemployment rates for some demographic,
occupational, and industrial categories. For characteristics
not given in tables 1-B and 1-C, refer to table 1-D.
Illustration. Suppose that, for a given month, the number
of women age 20 years and over in the civilian labor force is
estimated to be 65,000,000. For this characteristic, the approximate standard error of 207,000 is given in table
1-B in the row "Women, 20 years and over; Civilian labor
force." To calculate an approximate 90-percent confidence
interval, multiply the standard error of 207,000 by the fac-
tor 1.645 to obtain 341,000. This number is subtracted
from and then added to 65,000,000 to obtain an approximate 90-percent confidence interval: 64,659,000 to
65,341,000. Concluding that the true civilian labor force
level lies within an interval calculated in this way would be
correct for roughly 90 percent of all possible samples that
could have been selected for the CPS.
Use of table 1-D. This table gives a and b parameters that can
be used with formulas to calculate approximate monthly standard errors for a wide range of estimated levels, proportions,
and rates. Factors are provided to convert monthly measures
into approximate standard errors of estimates for other periods
(quarterly and yearly averages) and approximate standard errors for changes over time (consecutive monthly changes,
changes in consecutive quarterly and yearly averages, and
changes in monthly estimates 1 year apart).
The standard errors for estimated changes in level from
one month to the next, one year to the next, etc., depend
more on the monthly levels for characteristics than on the
size of the changes. Likewise, the standard errors for changes
in rates (or percentages) depend more on the monthly rates
(or percentages) than on the size of the changes. Accordingly, the factors presented In table 1-D are applied to the
monthly standard error approximations for levels, percentages, or rates; the magnitudes of the changes do not come
into play. Factors are not giiven for estimated changes between nonconsecutive months (except for changes of monthly
estimates 1 year apart); however, the standard errors may be
assumed to be higher than the standard errors for consecutive monthly changes.

Standard errors of estimated levels using table 1-D. The
approximate standard error se(x) of x, an estimated monthly

Illustration. Assume that, in a given a month, there are an
estimated 4 million unemployed men. Obtain the appropriate a and b parameters from table 1-D (Total or white; Men;

Procedure for using table 1-D factors for levels. Table 1-D
gives factors that can be used to compute approximate standard errors of levels for other periods or for changes over
time. For each characteristic, factors/are given for:
Consecutive month-to-month changes
Changes in monthly estimates 1 year apart
Quarterly averages
Changes in consecutive quarterly averages
Yearly averages
Changes in consecutive yearly averages
For a given characteristic, the table 1-D factor is used i
the following formula, which also uses the a and b para i
eters from the same line of the table. A three-step pi oredi i <
for using the formula is given. The/in the formula is f
quently called an adjustment factor, because it appears to
adjust a monthly standard error se(x). However, the x in the
formula is not a monthly level, but an average of several
monthly levels (see examples listed under Step 1, below),
se(x, / ) = /* se(x) = f* ^ax2
+ bx)
where x is an average of monthly levels over a designated
period.
Step 1. Average monthly levels appropriately in order no
obtain x. Levels for 3 months are averaged for quarterly
averages, and those for 12 months are averaged for year I /
averages. For changes in consecutive averages, avei ago ov r
the 2 months, 2 quarters, or 2 years involved. For changes i
monthly estimates 1 year apart, average the 2 months in
volved.
Step 2. Calculate an approximate standard error se(x),
treating the average x from step 1 as if it were an estimate of
level for a single month. Obtain parameters a and b from
table 1-D. (Note that, for some characteristics, an approxi mate standard error of level could instead be obtained from
table 1-B and used in place of se(x) in the formula.)
Step 3. Determine the standard error se (x,f) on the average level or on the change in level. Multiply the result from
step 2 by the appropriate factor / . The a and b parameters
used in step 2 and the factor/used in this step come from the
same line in table 1-D.
Illustration of a standard error computation for consecu
tive month change in level Continuing the previous ex
ample, suppose that in the next month the estimated number
of unemployed men increases by 150,000, from 4,000,000
to 4,150,000.
For an approximate 90-percent confidence interval, compute 1.645 * 120,000 « 197,000. Subtract the number from
and add the number to 150,000 to obtain an interval
of -47,000 to 347,000. This is an approximate 90-percent
confidence interval for the true change, and since this interval includes zero, one cannot assert at this level of confidence that any real change has occurred in the unemployment level. The result also can be expressed by saying that
the apparent change of 150,000 is not significant at a 90percent confidence level.
Illustration of a standard error computation for quarterly
average level Suppose that an approximate standard error
is desired for a quarterly average of the black or African
American employment level. Suppose that the estimated
employment levels for the 3 months making up the quarter
are 14,900,000, 15,000,000, and 15,100,000.
Step 1. The average of the three monthly levels is x =
15,000,000.
Step 2. Apply the a and b parameters from table 1-D (Black;
Total; Civilian labor force, employed, and not in labor force)
to the average x, treating it like an estimate for a single month.

se(\ 50,000) = 7*^(4,075,000) = 1.11*108,000 «120,000
Step 3. Obtain / = .82 from the same row of table 1-D in
the column "Change in consecutive quarterly averages," and
multiply the factor by the result from step 2.
^(400,000) = .82 * se(l 5,200,000) = .82*132,000 «108,000
For an approximate 95-percent confidence interval, compute 1.96 * 108,000 » 212,000. Subtract the number from
and add the number to 400,000 to obtain an interval of
188,000 to 612,000. The interval excludes zero. Another
way of stating this is to observe that the estimated change of
400,000 clearly exceeds 1.96 standard errors, or 212,000.
One can conclude from these data that the change in quarterly averages is significant at a 95-percent confidence level.
Step 1. Appropriately average estimates of monthly rates
or percentages to obtain p, and also average estimates of
monthly levels to obtain y. Rates for 3 months are averaged
for quarterly averages, and those for 12 months are averaged
for yearly averages. For chzinges in consecutive averages,
average over the 2 months, 2 quarters, or 2 years
involved. For changes in monthly estimates 1 year apart,
average the 2 months involved.
Standard errors of estimated rates and percentages using
table 1-D. As shown in the formula below, the approximate
standard error se(p,y) of an estimated rate or percentage
p depends, in part, upon the number of persons y in its
base or denominator. Generally, rates and percentages
are not published unless the monthly base is greater
than 75,000 persons, the quarterly average base is greater
than 60,000 persons, or the yearly average base is greater
than 35,000 persons. The b parameter is obtained from
table 1-D. When the base y and the numerator of p are
from different categories within the table, use the b parameter from table 1-D relevant to the numerator of the rate or
percentage.
Step 2. Calculate an approximate standard error
se (p, y), treating the averages p and y from step 1 as if they
were estimates for a single month. Obtain the b parameter
from the table 1-D row that describes the numerator of the
rate or percentage. (Note that, for some characteristics, an
approximate standard error could instead be obtained from
table 1-C and used in place of se (p9 y) in the formula.)
se(p,y) =
^p(100-p)
Note that se(p,y) is in percent.
Illustration, For a given month, suppose y = 6,200,000
women 20 to 24 years of age are estimated to be employed.
Of this total, 2,000,000, or p = 32 percent, are classified as
part-time workers. Obtain the parameter b = 3095.55 from
the table 1-D row (Employment; Part-time workers) that is
relevant to the numerator of the percentage. Apply the formula to obtain:
se(p,y)7 J = J
3095 55
-
((32)(100-32)«l.Opercent
A
F
V 6,200,000 V
'
For an approximate 95-percent confidence interval, compute 1.96 * 1.0 percent, and round the result to 2 percent.
Subtract this from and add this to the estimate ofp = 32
percent to obtain an interval of 30 percent to 34 percent.
Procedure for using table 1-Dfactors for rates andpercentages. Table 1-D factors can be used to compute approximate
standard errors on rates and percentages for other
periods or for changes over time. As for levels, there are three
steps in the procedure for using the formula.
se(p, y,f) = f* seip, y) = f*
J~p(100-p)
where p and y are averages of monthly estimates over a designated period. Note that se (p, y,f) is in percent.
Step 3. Determine the standard error se (p, y,f) on the
average level or on the chainge in level. Multiply the result
from step 2 by the appropriate factor/. The b parameter used
in step 2 and the factor/used in this step come from the same
line in table 1-D.
Illustration of a standard error computation for consecutive month change in percentage. Continuing the previous
example, suppose that, in the next month, 6,300,000 women
20 to 24 years of age are reported employed, and that
2,150,000, or 34 percent, are part-time workers.
Step 1. The month-to-month change is 2 percent = 34
percent - 32 percent. The average of the two monthly percentages of 32 percent and 34 percent is needed (p = 33
percent), as is the average of the two bases of6,200,000 and
6,300,000 (y = 6,250,000)..
Step 2. Apply the b = 3095.55 parameter from table 1-D
(Employment; Part-time workers) to the averaged p and y,
treating the averages like estimates for a single month.
se{p,y) = j ^ ^ ( ( 3 3 ) ( l Q 0 - 3 3 )
percent
Step 3. Obtain/=1.24 from the same row of table 1-D in
the colum n "Consecutive month-to-month change," and multiply the factor by the result from step 2.
se (2 percent) = 1.24 * 1.0 percent = 1.24 percent
For an approximate 95-percent confidence interval,
compute 1.96 * 1.24 percent, and round the result to 2.4
percent. Subtract this from and add this to the 2-percent
estimate of change to obtain an interval of -0.4 percent to
4.4 percent. Because this interval includes zero, it can be
concluded at a 95-percent confidence level that the change
is not significant.

Government employment covers only civilian employees;
military personnel are excluded. Employees of the Central
Intelligence Agency, the Defense Intelligence Agency, the
National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency, and the National

Persons on establishment payrolls who are on paid sick
leave (for cases in which pay is received directly from
the firm), on paid holiday, or on paid vacation, or who work
during a part of the pay period even though they are
unemployed or on strike during the rest of the period are
counted as employed. Not counted as employed are persons
who are on layoff, on leave without pay, or on strike for the
entire period, or who were hired but have not yet reported
during the period.
Industry hours and earnings
Average hours and earnings data are derived from reports of
payrolls and hours for production and related workers in
natural resources and mining and manufacturing,
construction workers in construction, and nonsupervisory
employees in private service-providing industries.
Production and related workers. This category includes
working supervisors and all nonsupervisory workers
(including group leaders and trainees) engaged in fabricating,
processing, assembling, inspecting, receiving, storing,
handling, packing, warehousing, shipping, trucking, hauling,
maintenance, repair, janitorial, guard services, product
development, auxiliary production for plant's own use
(for example, power plant), recordkeeping, and other
services closely associated with the above production
operations.
Construction workers. This group includes the following
employees in the construction division: Working
supervisors, qualified craft workers, mechanics, apprentices,
helpers, laborers, and so forth, engaged in new work,
alterations, demolition, repair, maintenance, and the like,
whether working at the site of construction or in shops or
yards at jobs (such as precutting and preassembling)
ordinarily performed by members of the construction
trades.
Nonsupervisory employees. These are employees (not above
the working-supervisor level) such as office and clerical
workers, repairers, salespersons, operators, drivers,
physicians, lawyers, accountants, nurses, social workers,
research aides, teachers, drafters, photographers, beauticians,
musicians, restaurant workers, custodial workers, attendants,
line installers and repairers, laborers, janitors, guards,
and other employees at similar occupational levels whose
services are closely associated with those of the employees
listed.
Payroll This refers to the payroll for full- and part-time
production, construction, or nonsupervisory workers
who received pay for any part of the pay period that
includes the 12th day of the month. The payroll is reported
before deductions of any kind., such as those for old-age and
unemployment insurance, group insurance, withholding tax,
bonds, or union dues; also included is pay for overtime,
holidays, and vacation, and for sick leave paid directly by
the firm. Bonuses (unless earned and paid regularly each
pay period); other pay not earned in the pay period reported
(such as retroactive pay); tips; and the value of free rent,
fuel, meals, or other payment in kind are excluded. Employee
benefits (such as health and other types of insurance,
contributions to retirement, and so forth, paid by the
employer) also are excluded.
Hours. These are the hours paid for during the pay period
that includes the 12th of the month for production,
construction, or nonsupervisory workers. Included are hours
paid for holidays and vacations, and for sick leave when
pay is received directly from the firm.
Overtime hours. These are hours worked by production or
related workers for which overtime premiums were paid because
the hours were in excess of the number of hours of either the
straight-time workday or the workweek during the pay period
that included the 12th of the month. Weekend and holiday
hours are included only if overtime premiums were paid. Hours
for which only shift differential, hazard, incentive, or other
similar types of premiums were paid are excluded.
Average weekly hours. The workweek information relates
to the average hours for which pay was received and is
different from standard or scheduled hours. Such factors as
unpaid absenteeism, labor turnover, part-time work, and
stoppages cause average weekly hours to be lower than
scheduled hours of work for an establishment. Group
averages further reflect changes in the workweek of
component industries.
Indexes of aggregate weekly hours and payrolls. The
indexes of aggregate weekly hours are calculated by dividing the current month's aggregate by the average of the
12 monthly figures for 2002. For basic industries, the
hours aggregates are the product of average weekly hours
and production worker or nonsupervisory worker
employment. At all higher levels of industry aggregation, hours aggregates are the sum of the component
aggregates.
The indexes of aggregate weekly payrolls are calculated
by dividing the current month's aggregate by the average of
the 12 monthly figures for 2002. For basic industries, the
payroll aggregates are the product of average hourly earnings
and aggregate weekly hours. At all higher levels of industry
aggregation, payroll aggregates are the sum of the component
aggregates.
Average overtime hours. Overtime hours represent that
portion of average weekly hours that exceeded regular hours
and for which overtime premiums were paid. If an employee:
were to work on a paid holiday at regular rates, receiving as
total compensation their holiday pay plus straight-time pay
for hours worked that day, no overtime hours would be:
reported.
Because overtime hours are premium hours by definitio n
weekly hours and overtime hours do not necessarily move
in the same direction from month to month. Such factors as
work stoppages, absenteeism, and labor turnover may not
have the same influence on overtime hours as on average
hours. Diverse trends at the industry group level also may
be caused by a marked change in hours for a component
industry in which little or no overtime was worked in both
the previous and current months.
Average hourly earnings. Average hourly earnings are on a
"gross" basis. They reflect 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. They also
reflect shifts in the number of employees between relatively
high-paid and low-paid work and changes in workers5
earnings in individual establishments. Averages for groups
and divisions further reflect changes in average hourly
earnings for individual industries.
Averages of hourly earnings differ from wage rates.
Earnings are the actual return 10 the woxker for a stated
period; rates are the amount s tipulated for a given unit of
work or time. The earnings series do not measure the level
of total labor costs on the part of the employer because ft
following are excluded Benefits, irregular bonuse
retroactive items, payroll raxes paid by employers, an l
earnings for those employees not covered under productio
worker, construction worker, or nonsupervisory employe
definitions.
Average hourly earnings, excluding overtime. Average
hourly earnings, excluding overtime-premium pay, are
computed by dividing the total production worker payrol l
for the industry group by the sum of t otal production worker
hours and one-half of total overtime hours. No adjustments;
are made for other premium payment provisions, such as
holiday pay, late-shift premiums, and overtime rates other
than time and one-half.
Average weekly earnings. These estimates are derived by
multiplying average weekly hou s estimates by averagehourly earnings estimates. Therefore, weekly earnings are
affected not only by changes m av< rage hourly earnings
but also by changes in the length of the workweek. Monthly
variations in such factors as the proportion of part-time
workers, stoppages for varying reasons, labor turnover
during the survey period, and ab enteeism for which
employees are not paid may cause the average workweek to
fluctuate.
Long-term trends of average weekly earnings can be
affected by structural changes in the makeup of the
workforce. For example, persistent long-term increases in
the proportion of part-time workers in retail trade and many
of the services industries have reduced average workweeks
in these industries and have affected the average weekly
earnings series.
Real earnings. These earnings are in constant dollars and
are calculated from the earnings averages for the current
month using a deflator derived from the Consumer Price
Index for Urban Wage Earners and Clerical Workers (CPIW). The reference year for these series is 1982.
Indexes ofdiffusion of employment change. These indexes
measure the dispersion of change in employment among
industries over the specified timespan. The overall indexes
are calculated from 278 seasonally adjusted employment
series (4-digit NAICS industries) covering all nonfarm
payroll employment in the private sector. The manufacturing diffusion indexes are based on 84 4-digit NAICS
industries.
To derive the indexes, each component industry is
assigned a value of 0, 50, or 100 percent, depending on
whether its employment showed a decrease, no change, or
an increase, respectively, over the timespan. The average
value (mean) is then calculated, and this percent is the
diffusion index number.
The reference point for diffusion analysis is 50 percent,
the value indicating that the same number of component
industries had increased as had decreased. Index numbers
above 50 show that more industries had increasing
employment and values below 50 indicate that more had
iecreasmg employment The margin between the percent
rhat mcreased and the percent tliat decreased is equal to the
lifference between the index and its complement—that is,
100 minus the inaex. For example, an index of 65 percent
means that 30 percent more industries had increasing
employment than had decreasing employment (65-(100-65)
= 30). However, for dispersion analysis, the distance of the
index number from the 50-percent reference point is the most
significant observation.
Although diffusion indexes commonly are interpreted as
showing the percent of components that increased over the
timespan, the index reflects half of the unchanged
components as well. (This is the effect of assigning a value
of 50 percent to the unchanged components when computing
the index.)
ESTIMATING METHODS
The Current Employment Statistics (CES) or establishment
survey estimates of employment are generated through an
annual benchmark and monthly sample link procedure. Annual
universe counts or benchmark levels are generated primarily
from administrative records on employees covered by
unemployment insurance (UI) tax laws. These annual
benchmarks, established for March of each year, are projected
forward for each subsequent month based on the trend of
the sample employment, using an estimation procedure
called the link relative. Benchmarks and sample link
relatives are computed for each basic estimating cell and
summed to create aggregate-level employment estimates.
Benchmarks
For the establishment survey, annual benchmarks are
constructed in order to realign the sample-based employment
totals for March of each year with the Ul-based population
counts for March. These population counts are much less
timely than sample-based estimates and are used to provide
an annual point-in-time census for employment. For national
series, only the March sample-based estimates are replaced
with UI counts. For State and metropolitan area series, all
available months ofUI data are used to replace sample-based
estimates. State and area series are based on smaller samples
and are therefore more vulnerable to both sampling and
nonsampling errors than national estimates.
Population counts are derived from the administrative
file of employees covered by UI. All employers covered by UI
laws are required to report employment and wage information
to the appropriate State workforce agency four times a year.
Approximately 97 percent of private employment within the
scope of the establishment survey is covered by UI. A
benchmark for the remaining 3 percent is constructed from
alternate sources, primarily records from the Railroad
Retirement Board and County Business Patterns. The full
benchmark developed for March replaces the March samplebased estimate for each basic cell. The monthly sample-based
estimates for the year preceding and the year following the
benchmark also are than subject to revision.
Monthly estimates for the year preceding the March
benchmark are readjusted using a "wedge-back" procedure.
The difference between the final benchmark level and the
previously published March sample estimate is calculated
and spread back across the previous 11 months. The wedge
is linear; eleven-twelfths of the March difference is added
to the February estimate, ten-twelfths to the January estimate,
and so on, back to the previous April estimate, which
receives one-twelfth of the March difference. This assumes
that the total estimation error since the last benchmark:
accumulated at a steady rate throughout the current;
benchmark year.
Estimates for the 7 months following the March benchmark also are recalculated each year. These post-benchmark:
estimates reflect the application of sample-based monthly
changes to new benchmark levels for March and the
recomputation of net birth/death model factors for each
month.
Following the revision of basic employment estimates, all
other derivative series (such as the number of production
workers and average hourly earnings) also are recalculated,
New seasonal adjustment factors are calculated and all data
series for the previous 5 years are re-seasonally adjusted before
full publication of all revised data in February of each year.
Changing data ratios for educational services and religious
organizations. Due to definitional exclusions in the
collection of data for educational services, NAICS 611, and
a small sample in religious organizations, NAICS 8131,
certain ratios for these series are recalculated with each
benchmark: to allow for the creation of aggregate totals.
Production worker and women worker ratios, average hourly
earnings, and average weekly hours are calculated based on
the weighted average of the previous year's professional and
technical services, education and health services, leisure and
hospitality, and other services supersectors annual averages.
The March 2004 values wer e set based on the 2003 annual
averages.
The educational services series uses the nonsupervisory
worker ratio, average hourly earnings, and average weekly
hours calculated from the weighted average. The religious
organizations series uses the production worker and women
worker ratios, average hourly earnings, and average weekly
hours calculated from the weighted average. In both cases,
the ratios, average hourly earnings, and average weekly
hours are held constant through the next benchmark.
Monthly estimation
CES uses a matched sample concept and weighted link
relative estimator to produce employment, hours, and
earnings estimates. These methods are described in table 2A. A matched sample is defined to be all sample members
that have reported data for the reference month and the
previous month. Excluded from the matched sample is any
sample unit that reports that it is out of business. This aspect
of the estimation methodology is more fully described in
the section on estimation of business births and deaths below.
Stratification. The sample is stratified into 688 estimation
cells for purposes of computing national employment, hours,
and earnings estimates. Cells are defined primarily by
detailed industry. In the construction supersector, geographic
stratification also is used. The estimation cells can be defined
at the 3-, 4-, 5-, and 6-digit NAICS levels.
In addition to the estimation cells mentioned above, there
are 40 independently estimated cells which do not aggregate
to the summary cell levels.
Weighted link-relative technique. The estimator for the
all-employ ee series uses the sample trend in the cell to move
the previous level to the current-month estimated level. A
model-based component is applied to account for the net
employment resulting from business births and deaths not
captured by the sample.

other nonrespondents As a r suit, e*tens~
follow up
with monthly nonrespondents to determine whether a
company is out ofbusmess or simply die not cspond is not
required.
Employment associated with business births will not
exactly equal that associated with business deaths. The
amount by which it differs varies by month and by
industry. As a result, the residual component of the birth/
death offset must be accounted for by using a model-based
approach.
With any model-based approach, it is desirable to have 5
or more years of history to use in developing the models.
Due to the absence of reliable counts of monthly business
births and deaths, development of an appropriate birth/death
residual series assumed the following form:
Birth-death residual = Population - Sample-based estimate
+ Error
During the net birth/death modeling process, simulated
monthly probability estimates over a 5-year period are
created and compared with population employment levels.
Moving from a simulated benchmark, the differences
between the series across time represent a cumulative birth/
death component. Those residuals are converted to monthto-month differences and used as input series to the modeling
process.
Models are fit using X-12 ARIMA (Auto-Regressive
Integrated Moving Average). Outliers, level shifts,
and temporary ramps are automatically identified. Seven
models are tested, and the model exhibiting the lowest
average forecast error is selected for each series. Table 2-B
shows the net birth/death model figures for the postbenchmark period of April 2004 to October 2004 by
supersector.
Residential and nonresidential specialty trade contractors
estimates. Residential and nonresidential specialty trade
contractors estimates are produced as sub-breakouts in
specialty trade contractors (NAICS 238) under the standard
NAICS coding structure. Benchmarks for these series are
developed from the QCEW data and independent estimates
for these series are made on a monthly basis and raked to
the estimates produced under the standard structure to ensure
that the sum of the residential specialty trade contractors
and nonresidential specialty trade contractors series is
consistent with the published total for specialty trade
contractors at the 3-digit NAICS level.
The raking adjustment follows the following
methodology: Estimates are derived independently for the
residential and nonresidential groups at the 4-digit NAICS
level for each region. The regional estimates are rounded
and summed to the 4-digit NAICS level for both the
residential and nonresidential groups. Within each 4-digit
NAICS series, ratios of residential-to-total employment and
nonresidential-to-total employment are calculated.
At the 4-digit NAICS level, the sum of the residential/
nonresidential series is subtracted from the official industryregion cell structure total to determine the amount that must
be raked. The total amount that must be raked then is
multiplied by the ratios to determine what percentage of the
raked amount should be applied to the residential group and
what percentage should be applied to the nonresidential
group.
Once the residential and nonresidential groups receive
their proportional amount of raked employment, the two
groups are aggregated again to the 4-digit NAICS level. At
this point, they are equal to the 4-digit NAICS total derived
from the official industry-region cell structure. This raking
process also forces additivity at the 3-digit NAICS level.
No estimates of hours and earnings are made for the
residential and nonresidential series.
THE SAMPLE
Design
The CES sample is a stratified, simple random sample of
worksites, clustered by UI account number. The UI account
number is a major identifier on the BLS longitudinal database
of employer records, which serves as both the sampling frame
and the benchmark source for the CES employment
estimates. The sample strata, or subpopulations, are defined
by State, industry, and employment size, yielding a Statebased design. The sampling rates for each stratum are
determined through a method known as optimum allocation,

which distributes a fixed number of sample units across a
set of strata to minimize the overall variance, or sampling
error, on the primary estimate of interest. The total nonfarm
employment level is the primary estimate, of interest, and
the CES sample design gives top priority to measuring it: as
precisely, as possible3 or, in other words, minimizing the
statistical error around the statewide total nonfarm
employment estimates;.
Frame and sample selection. The longitudinal data ba.se
(LDB) is the universe from which. BLS draws the CES
sample. The LDB contains data on the approximately 8
million U.S. business establishments covered by 1)1
representing nearly all elements of the U.S. economy. Tie
Quarterly Census of Employment and Wages (QCEW), o r
ES-202, program collects these data from employers, on a
quarterly basis, in cooperation with State workforce agencies,
The LDB contains employment and wage information from,
employers, as well as name, address, and location
information. It also contains identification information such
as unemployment insurance (UI) account number, and
reporting unit or worksite number.
The LDB contains records of all employers. covered,
under the unemployment insurance tax system. The system
covers 97 percent of all employers in the 50 States, the
District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, and the Virgin Islands
There are a few sections of the economy that are not covered,
including the self-employed, unpaid family workers,
railroads, religious organizations, small agricultural
employers, and elected officials. Data for employers
generally are reported ait the worksite level. Employers who
have multiple establishments within a State usually report
data for each individual establishment. The LDB tracks
establishments over time and links them from quarter to
quarter.
Permanent random numbers (PRNs) have been assigne d
to all UI accounts on the sampling frame. As new units
appear on the frame, random numbers are assigned to those
units as well. As records are linked across time, the PRN is
carried forward in the linkage.
The CES sample is stratified by State, industry, and size.
Stratification groups population members together for the
purpose of sample allocation and selection. The strata, or
groups, are composed of homogeneous units. With 13
industries and 8 size classes, there are 104 total allocation
cells per State. The sampling rate for each stratum is
determined through a method known as optimum allocation.
Optimum allocation minimizes variance at a fixed cost o r
minimizes cost for a fixed variance. Under the CES
probability design, a fixed number of sample units for each
State is distributed across the allocation strata in such a way
as to minimize the overall variance, or sampling error, of
the total State employment level. The number of sample
units in the CES probability sample was fixed according to
available program resources. The optimum allocation
formula places more sample in cells for which data cost less;
to collect, cells that have more units, and cells that have a
larger variance.
During the first quarter of each year, a new sample is
drawn from the LDB. Annual sample selection helps keep
the CES survey current with respect to employment from
business births and business deaths. In addition, the updated
universe files provide the most recent information on
industry, size, and metropolitan area designation.
After all out-of-scope records are removed, the sampling
frame is sorted into allocation cells. Within each allocation
cell, units are sorted by metropolitan statistical area (MSA)
and by the size of the MSA, defined as the number of UI
accounts in that MSA. As the sampling rate is uniform across
the entire allocation cell, implicit stratification by MSA
ensures that a proportional number of units are sampled from
each MSA. Some MSAs may have too few UI accounts in
the allocation cell; these MSAs are collapsed and treated as
a single MSA. Within each selection cell, the units are sorted
by PRN, and units are selected according to the specified
sample selection rate. The number ofunits selected randomly
from each selection cell is equal to the product of the sample
selection rate and the number of eligible .units in the cell,
plus any carryover from the prior selection cell. The result
is rounded to the nearest whole number. Carryover is defined
as the amount that is rounded up or down to the nearest
whole number.
As a result of the cost and workload associated with
enrolling new sample units, all units remain in the sample
for a minimum of 2 years. To insure that all units meet this
minimum requirement, BLS has established a "swapping in"
procedure. The procedure allows units to be swapped into
the sample that were newly selected during the previous
sample year and not reselected as part of the current
probability sample. The procedure removes a unit within
the same selection cell and places the newly selected unit
from the previous year back into the sample.
Selection weights. Once the sample is drawn, sample
selection weights are calculated based on the number ofUI
accounts actually selected within each allocation cell. The
sample selection weight is approximately equal to the inverse
of the probability of selection, or the inverse of the sampling
. rate. It is computed as:
Sample selection weight = Nh / r^
where:
Nh = the number of noncertainty UI accounts within
the allocation cell that are eligible for sample
selection; and
nh = the number of noncertainty UI accounts
selected within the allocation cell
Sample Rotation. Sample rotation eases the burden on respondents who have been participating in the survey for an
extended time period. A 25-percent rotation is utilized in

f o u n t s reflect active sample reports. Because not all
establishments report payroll and hours information, hours and
earnings estimates are based on a smaller sample than are the
employment estimates.
Average employment of reported values for 2004.
The Surface Transportation Board provides a complete count of
employment for Class I railroads plus Amtrak. A small sample is
used to estimate hours and earnings data.
selection cells with weights greater than 2.00. Units that
rotate out of the sample will not be reselected as part of the
sample for 3 years. In an effort to keep units from moving
back into the sample after a single year, a "swap out" procedure has been established. The "swap out" procedure
removes units from the current sample that had been rotated
out of the sample within the last 3 years and replaces
them with other units within the selection cell eligible for
sample selection. As a result of sample rotation, approximately 68 percent of the Current Employment Statistics
sample for the private industries overlaps from one year to
the next.
- the company cannot report for all worksites from a
central location;
Frame maintenance and sample updates. Due to the
dynamic economy, there is a constant cycle of business births
and deaths. A semiannual update is performed during the
third quarter of each year. This update selects units from the
population of births and other units not previously eligible
for selection, and includes them as part of the sample.
Updated location, contact, and administrative information
is provided for all establishments that were selected in the
annual sample selection.
Suhsampling.
The primary enrollment of new
establishments takes place in BLS regional office data
collection centers (DCCs). After the sample has been sent
to the DCCs, interviewers enroll the selected establishments.
While die UI account is the sample unit, interviewers attempt
to collect the data for all individual establishments within a
UI account.
For multiple-worksite UI accounts, it is sometimes
necessary to subsample employers. This occurs when:
3
- the company cannot provide an aggregate report for
the entire UI account;
- there are too many individual worksites to make it
practical to contact ea ch of them.
With subsampling of a smaller number of worksites, both
interviewer workload and respondent burden are reduced
without significantly reducing the accuracy of the estimates,
but this technique will result in a small increase in variance.
In the event that a UI account is subsampled, weight
adjustments are made to reflect each of the worksites'
probability of selection.
Coverage
Table 2-C shows the latest benchmark employment levels
and the approximate proportion of total universe employment
coverage at the total nonfarm and major industry supersector
levels. The coverage for individual industries within the
supersectors may vary from the proportions shown.
Reliability
The establishment survey, like other sample surveys, is
subject to two types of error, sampling and nonsampling error.
The magnitude of sampling error, or variance, is directly
related to the size of the sample and the percentage of
universe coverage achieved by the sample. The establishment
survey sample covers over one-third of total universe
employment; this yields a veiy small variance for the total
nonfarm estimates. Measurements of error associated with
sample estimates are provided in tables 2-D through 2-F.

The root-mean-square error Is the square root of the mean square d
error.The mean squared error is the square of the difference betwe en
the final and preliminary estimates averaged across a series of
monthly observations.
NOTE: Errors are based on differences from January 2000throng i
October 2004.
Benchmark revision as a measure of survey error. The
sum of sampling and nonsampling error can be considered
total survey error. Unlike most sample surveys which publish
sampling error as their only measure of error, the CES ca.
derive an annual approximation of total error, on a lagged
basis, because of the availability of tide independently derived
universe data. While the benchmark error is used as
measure of total error for the CES survey estimate, it actual!]
represents the difference between two independent estimates
derived from separate s urvey processes (specifically, the CES
sample process and the UI administrative process) and thim
reflects the errors present in each program. Historically, the
benchmark revision h«s been very small for total nonfarm
employment. Over ilr pa~t decade, percentage benchmark
error has averaged 0.2 percent, with an absolute range from
less than 0.05 percent to 0.5 percent.
Revisions between preliminary and final data. First
preliminary estimates of employment, hours, and earnings,
based on less than the total sample, are published
immediately following the reference month. Final revised
sample-based estimates are published 2 months later when
nearly all the reports in the sample have been received. Tabl e
2-D presents the root-mean-square error, the mean percent,
and the mean absolute percent revision that may be expected
between the preliminary and final employment estimates.
Revisions of preliminary hours and earnings estimate s
are normally not greater than 0.1 hour for weekly hours and
1 cent for hourly earnings, at the total private nonfarm level,
Variance estimation. The estimation of sample variance for
the CES survey is accomplished through use of the method
of balanced half samples (BHS). This replication technique
uses half samples of the original sample and calculates
estimates using those subsamples. The sample variance is
calculated by measuring the variability of the subsample
estimates. The weighted link estimator is used to calculate both estimates and variances. The sample units in each
cell—where a cell is based on State, industry, and size
classification—are divided into two random groups. The
basic BHS method is applied to both groups. The subdivision
of the cells is done systematically, in the same order as the
initial sample selection. Weights for units in the half sample
are multiplied by a factor of 1 + y where weights for units
not in the half sample are multiplied by a factor of 1 - y.
Estimates from these subgroups are calculated using the
estimation formula described previously.
The formula used to calculate CES variances is as follows:

Q = original full-sample estimates.
Appropriate uses of sampling variances. Variance statistics
are useful for comparison purposes, but they do have some
limitations. Variances reflect the error component of the
estimates that is due to surveying only a subset of the
population, rather than conducting a complete count of the
entire population. However, they do not reflect nonsampling
error, such as response errors, and bias due to nonresponse.
The overall performance of the CES employment estimates
is best measured in terms of the benchmark revisions. The
variances of the over-the-month change estimates are very
useful in determining when changes are significant at some
level of confidence. Variance statistics for first-closing
estimates are provided in Table 2-F. In addition, variances
for second- and third-closing estimates are available upon
request.
Sampling errors. The sampling errors shown for total
nonfarm and for total private industries have been calculated
for estimates that follow the benchmark employment revision
by a period of 16 to 20 months. The errors are presented as
median values of the observed error estimates. These
estimates have been estimated using the method ofbalanced
half samples with the probability sample data and sample
weights assigned at the time of sample selection.
Illustration of the use of table 2-E. Table 2-E provides a
reference for relative standard errors of three major series
developed from the CES—estimates of the number of all
employees (AE), of average weekly hours (AWH), and of
average hourly earnings (AHE) within the same industry.
The standard errors of differences between estimates in
two non-overlapping industries are calculated as:
S difference = ^ s | + s |
since the two estimates are independent
The errors are presented as relative standard errors
(standard error divided by the estimate and expressed as a
percent). Multiplying the relative standard error by its
estimated value gives the estimate of the standard error.
Suppose that the level of all employees for financial
activities in a given month is estimated at 7,819,000. The
approximate relative standard error of this estimate (0.4
percent) is provided in table 2-E. A 90-percent confidence
interval would then be the interval:
7,819,000 +/- (1.645*004*7,819,000)
= 7,819,000 +/- 51,449
= 7,767,551 to 7,870,449
Illustration of the use of table 2-F. Table 2-F provides a
reference for the standard errors of 1-, 3-, and 12-month
changes in AE, AWH, and AHE. The errors are presented as
standard errors of the changes.
Suppose that the over-the-month change in AHE from
January to February in coal mining is $0.11. The standard
error for a 1-month change for coal mining from the table is
$0.22. The interval estimate of the over-the-month change
in AHE that will include the true over-the-month change
with 90-percent confidence is calculated as:
$0.11+/-(1.645* $0.22)
= $0.11+/-$0.36
= -$0.25 to $0.47
same establishment reports used by BLS. However, BLS
uses the full CES sample to produce monthly national
employment estimates, while each State agency uses its
portion of the sample to independently develop a State
employment estimate.
The CES area statistics relate to metropolitan areas and
divisions. Definitions for all areas are published each year
in the issue of Employment and Earnings that contains State
and area annual averages (usually the May issue). Changes
in definitions are noted as they occur.
Estimates for States and areas are produced using two
methods. The majority of Staite and area estimates are
produced using direct sample-based estimation. However,
published area and industry combinations (domains) that do
not have a large enough sample to support estimation using
only sample responses are estimated by using a small-domain
model.
Small-domain model. The small-domain model consists of
a weighted sum of three different relative over-the-month
change estimates, Li, l 2 > and Z 3 . These three relative
over-the-month change estimates are then weighted based
on the variance of each of the three estimates. The larger the
variance of each Lk estimate relative to the other Lk
variances, the smaller the weight. The resulting estimate of
current-month employment Yiat is defined as:
hat
=
tyiat^iat,!
+ W
iat,2^iat,2
+
W
iaOhat,zfia,t-\
where:
Yiat
= current-month t employment estimate for domain
ia defined by the intersection of industry i and
airea a;
Liat i = current-month relative over-the-month change
estimate based on available sample responses
for domain ia;
Wiat i = current-month weight assigned to Liatji based
on the variances of L
, Liat 2, and Liat 3
(The weights W iati2 and Wiat 3 are defined
similarly.);
i a t j l
The true value of the over-the-month change is in the
interval -$0.25 to $0.47. Because this interval includes $0.00
(no change), the change of $0.11 shown is not significant at
the 90-percent confidence level. Alternatively, the estimated
change of $0.11 does not exceed $0.36 (1.645 * $0.22);
therefore, one could conclude from these data that the change
is not significant at the 90-percent confidence level.
Liat 2 = current-month relative over-the-month change
estimate based on time series forecasts using
historical universe employment counts for
domain ia. (These historical universe
employment counts are available from January
1990 to 12 months prior to the current month
t);
STATISTICS FOR STATES, AREAS, AND
DIVISIONS
Liat,3 = current-month relative over-the-month change
estimate based on a synthetic estimate of the
relative change that uses all sample responses
in the State that includes area a, for industry i;
and
Yia t_i - previous-month employment estimate for
domain ia from the small-domain model.
(Tables B-6, B-12, B-13, B-17, and B-18)
As explained earlier, State agencies in cooperation with BLS
collect and prepare State, area, and division employment,
hours, and earnings data. These statistics are based on the
It Is possible that for a given industry i and area a, on ~
even two of the inputs Liatjk to the model a~e assig i 1
weights of 0. The reasons for assigning a weight of 0 m a
model input are due to concerns regarding the stability 1
the inputs. For example, if Liat i or Liat<$has five or fe v r
responses, then it is assigned a weight of 0. If Liat > exhilnis
an unstable variance or has an extremely poor model f ,
then it may also be assigned a weight of 0. In these ca e ,
the small-domain model estimate may be based on unly i
or two of the three described inputs.
Sampling errors are not applicable to the estimates m ic
using the small-domain models. The measure available judge the reliability of these modeled estimates is tl L
performance over past time periods compared ^vith 1 *
universe values for those time periods. These measures u
useful; however, it is not certain that the past performa i
of the modeled estimates accurately reflects their curr i t
performance.
It should also be noted that extremely small estimates c f
2,000 employees or less are potentially subject to lai g
percentage revisions that are caused by occurrences such a
the relocation of one or two businesses or a change in ilii
activities of one or two businesses. These are noneconoiu
classification changes that relate to the activity or location
ofbusinesses and will be present for sample-based estimates
as well as the model-based estimates.
Error measures for State and area estimates are available
on the BLS Web site at http://www.bls.gov/sae/
790stderr.htm.
Caution in aggregating State data. The national estimation
procedures used by BLS are designed to produce accurate
national data by detailed industry; correspondingly, the State
estimation procedures are designed to produce accurate data
for each individual State. State estimates are not forced to
sum to national totals nor vice versa. Because each State series is subject to larger sampling and nonsampling errors than
the national series, summing them cumulates individual State
level errors and can cause distortion at an aggregate level.
This has been a particular problem at turning points in the
U.S. economy, when the majority of the individual State errors tend to be in the same direction. Due to these statistical
limitations, the Bureau does not compile or publish a
"sum-of-States" employment series* Additionally, BLS
cautions users that such a series is subject to a relatively large
and volatile error structure, particularly at turning points.

FEDERAL-STATE COOPERATIVE PROGRAM
Labor force and unemployment estimates for States,
labor market areas (LMAs), and other areas covered under
Federal assistance programs are developed by State Workforce
Agencies under a Federal-State cooperative program. The
local unemployment estimates, which derive from standardized procedures developed by BLS, are the basis for determining eligibility of an area for benefits under Federal programs such as the Workforce Investment Act.
Annual average data for the States and 375 areas shown in
table C-3 are published in Employment and Earnings (usually the May issue). For regions, States, selected metropolitan areas, and central cities, annual average data classified by
selected demographic, social, and economic characteristics
are published in the BLS bulletin, Geographic Profile of
Employment and Unemployment.
Labor force estimates for counties, cities, and other small
areas have been prepared for administration of various Federal economic assistance programs and are available on the
Internet at http://www.bls.gov/lau or by subscription by calling202-691-6392.
ESTIMATING METHODS
Monthly labor force, employment, and unemployment esti mates are prepared for the 50 States, the District of
Columbia, Puerto Rico, and over 7,000 areas, including nearly
2,400 LMAs, all counties, and cities with a population of25,000
or more. Regional aggregations are derived by summing the
division estimates. The estimation methods are described
below for States (and the District of Columbia) and for substate areas. At the sub-LMA (county and city) level,
estimates are prepared using disaggregation techniques
based on decennial and annual population estimates and
current unemployment insurance data. A more detailed
description of the estimation procedure is contained in
the BLS document, Manual for Developing Local Area
Unemployment Statistics.
Estimates for States
For all States and the District of Columbia, the Los AngelesLong Beach-Glendale metropolitan division, New York City,
and the respective balances of State, models based on a
"signal-plus-noise" approach are used to develop
employment and unemployment estimates. The model of the
signal is a time series model of the true labor force which
consists of three components: A variable coefficient
regression, aflexibletrend, and aflexibleseasonal component.
The regression techniques are based on historical and
current relationships found within each State's economy as
reflected in the different sources of data that are available for
each State—the Current Population Survey (CPS), the Current
Employment Statistics (CES) survey, and the UI system. The
noise component of the models explicitly accounts for
autocorrelation in the CPS sampling error and changes in the
average magnitude of the error. In addition, the models can
identify and remove the effects of outliers in the historical
CPS series. While all the State models have important
components in common, they differ somewhat from one
another to better reflect individual State labor force
characteristics.
Seasonal adjustment occurs within the model structure
through the removal of the seasonal component. The models
also produce reliability measures on the adjusted and
unadjusted series, and on over-the-month change.
The Redesign bivariate models incorporate a major
change in the approach to benchmarking and the
benchmarking process. Rather than continue with an annual
average State benchmark applied retrospectively that
reintroduces sampling error to the historical monthly
estimates, the Redesign approach uses a reliable real-time
monthly national benchmark for controlling current State
model estimates of employment and unemployment. In this
process, benchmarking is part of the monthly State model
estimation process.
Under real-time benchmarking, a tiered approach to
estimation is used. Model-based estimates are developed
for the 9 Census divisions that geographically exhaust the
Nation using univariate signal-plus-noise models. The
division models are similar to the State models, but do not
use unemployment insurance claims or nonfarm payroll
employment as variables. The division estimates are
benchmarked to the national levels of employment and
unemployment on a monthly basis. The benchmarked division
model estimate is then used as the benchmark for the States
within the division. The distribution ofthe monthly benchmark
adjustment to the States is based on each State's monthly
model estimate. In this manner, the monthly State employment
and unemployment estimates will add to the national levels.
Estimates for substate labor market areas
As noted, monthly labor force estimates for two large
substate areas—New York City and the Los Angeles-Long
Beach-Glendale, CA metropolitan division and the respective
balances of New York and California—are developed using
bivariate signal-plus-noise models. Signal-plus-noise models
also have been developed for six additional substate areas
and their State balances. The areas are: the ChicagoNaperville-Joliet, IL metropolitan division; the Cleveland-
Elyria-Mentor, OH metropolitan area; the Detroit-Wan enLivonia, Ml metropolitan area; the Miami-Miami Beac hKendall, FL metropolitan division; the New Orleans-MetairieKenner, LA metropolitan area; and the Seattle-Belles ue~
Everett, WAmetropolitan division. As with the Redesign Stale
and division models, these area models are based on the
classical decomposition of a time series into trend, seasonal,
and irregular components. A component to identify arid
remove the CPS sampling error also is included. Area models,
like the division models, are univariate in design in that only
the historical relationship of the iaputs is considered— UI
claims and CES inputs are not used each month in the
estimation process. Area and balance of State models are
controlled directly to the State totals, which are themselves
controlled to the national CPS via the Census division model s .
Estimates for the nearly 2,400 remaining LMAs are prepared
through indirect estimation techniques, described below
The LAUS Handbook method is an effort to estimate
unemployment for an area, using available information
without the expense of expanding a labor force survey like
the CPS. The Handbook presents a series of estimating
"building blocks," in which categories of unemployed
workers are classified by their previous status. Two broad
categories of unemployed persons are: (1) Those who wens
last employed in industries covered by State UI laws, and (2)
those who either entered the labor force for the first time or
reentered after a period of separation. Handbook inputs wer e:
updated using the Census 2000 results and other
improvements to Handbook estimation were implemented w itli
January 2005 estimates.
Employment The total employment estimate is based o \
data from several sources. The primary source for m K
metropolitan areas (MAs) is the Federal-State CES surv* 3
The CES is designed to produce estimates of the total number
of employees on payrolls in nonfarm industries for the
particular area. In small labor market: areas and the remainder
of the MAs, the establishment employment data come from
the Quarterly Census of Employment and Wages (ES-202
Report).
These "place-of-work" employment estimates must be
adjusted to a place-of-residence basis, as in the CPS ,
Estimated adjustment factors have been developed using
employment relationships which existed at the time of the
. most recent decennial census. The adjustment approach
implemented in January 2005 is more dynamic than, the
previous one and incorporates commuting to nearby labor
market areas. These factors are applied to the place-of-work
employment estimates for the current period to obtain
adjusted employment estimates, to which are added
synthetically developed estimates for employment not
represented in the establishment series—agricultural workers,
nonfarm self-employed and unpaid family workers, and private
household workers.
Unemployment. The estimate of unemployment is an
aggregate of the estimates for each of the two building-block
categories. The "covered" category further consists of two
unemployed worker groups: (1) Those who are currently
receiving UI benefits and (2) those who have exhausted their
benefits. Only the number of those currently collecting
benefits is obtained directly from an actual count of UI
claimants for the reference week. The estimate of persons
who have exhausted their benefits is based upon the number
actually exhausting benefits in previous periods "survived"
using a conditional probability approach based on CPS data.
The second category, "new entrants and reentrants into
the labor force," cannot be estimated directly from UI
statistics, because unemployment for these persons is not
immediately preceded by the period of employment required
to receive UI benefits. In addition, there is no uniform source
of new entrants and reentrants data for States available at
the LMA level; the only existing source available is from the
CPS at the State level. Separate estimates for new entrants
and for reentrants are derived from econometric models based
on current and historical State entrants data from the CPS.
These model estimates are then allocated to all LMAs based
on the age distribution of the population of each LMA. For
new entrants, the area's proportion of the 16-19 year-old
population group to the State 16-19 year-old population total
is used, and for reentrants, the Handbook area's proportion
of the 20 years and older population to the State total 20
years and older population is used.
Substate adjustment for consistency and additivity. Each
month, Handbook estimates are prepared for labor market
areas that exhaust the entire State area. To obtain a labor
force estimate for a given area, a "Handbook share" is
computed for that area which is defined as the ratio of that
area's Handbook estimates of employment and
unemployment to the sum of the Handbook estimates of
employment and unemployment for all LMAs in the State.
These ratios are then multiplied by the current statewide
estimate for employment and unemployment to produce the
final adjusted LMA estimates.
Estimates for parts of LMAs
Current labor force estimates at the sub-LMA level are
required by several Federal programs. Disaggregation
techniques are used to obtain current estimates of
employment and unemployment for counties within multicounty LMAs and cities, towns, and townships within
counties. Two alternative methods are used to disaggregate
the LMA estimates.
The population-claims method is the preferred technique.
If residence-based UI claims data are available for the subareas
within the labor market area, the ratio of claims in the subarea
to the total number of claims within the LMA is used to
disaggregate the estimate of experienced unemployed to the
subarea level. To ensure the quality of the claims data used
in this technique, claimant records are processed through a
residency assignment system that verifies and/or corrects
residence addresses and assigns the associated residency
codes. This provides a more accurate count of claims by city.
The estimates of unemployed entrants are allocated based
on the latest available census distribution of the adult and
teenage population groups. Employment is disaggregated
using decennial census employment-population ratios
updated by current population estimates. Estimates for all
disaggregated counties and New England cities and towns
are developed using this method.
If the necessary UI claims data are not available, the
census-share method is used. This method uses each
subarea's decennial census share of total LMA employment
and unemployment, respectively, in order to disaggregate
employment and unemployment. Very few States will be using
this method for data after 2004.
Annual activities
Once each year, labor force estimates are revised to reflect
updated input data and new U.S. Census Bureau population
controls. As part of this procedure, all of the State and
substate models are reviewed, revised as necessary, and then
reestimated; this reestimation is called "smoothing."
When new population controls are available from the
Bureau of the Census, typically in January, CPS estimates for
all States, the District of Columbia, New York City; the
Chicago-Naperville-Joliet, IL metropolitan division;
Cleveland-Elyria-Mentor, OH metropolitan area; DetroitWarren-Livonia, MI metropolitan area; Los Angeles-Long
Beach-Glendale, CA metropolitan division; Miami-Miami
Beach-Kendall, FL metropolitan division; New OrleansMetairie-Kenner, LA metropolitan area; and, the SeattleBellevue-Everett, WA metropolitan division are adjusted to
these controls. Additionally* the time series regression
models for the States and model-based areas are reestimated
based on the latest input data.
Other substate estimates for previous years are also
revised on an annual basis. The updates incorporate any
changes in the inputs, such as revisions to establishmentbased employment estimates or claims data and updated
historical relationships. The revised estimates are then
readjusted to the latest statewide estimates of employment
and unemployment.
Seasonal Adjustment
Over the course of a year, the size of the Nation's labor force,
the levels of employment and unemployment, and other me asures of labor market activity undergo sharp fluctuations due
to such seasonal events as changes in weather, reduced or
expanded production, harvests, major holidays, and the op ening and closing of schools. Became these seasonal events
follow a more or less regular pattern each year, their influence
on statistical trends can be eliminated by adjusting the statistics from month to month. These adjustments make it easier
to observe the cyclical and other nonseasonal movements in
the series. Seasonally adjusted series for selected labor force
and establishment-based data are published monthly in
Employment and Earnings.
Household data
Beginning in January 2003, BLS started using the X-12
ARIMA (Auto-Regressive Integrated Moving Average)
seasonal adjustment program to seasonally adjust national
labor force data from the Current Population Survey (CPS),
or household survey. This program replaced the X-ll ARIMA
program which had been used since January 1980. For a
detailed description of the X-12-ARIMA program and ills
features, see D.F. Findley, B.C. Monsdl, W.R. Bell, M.C. Otto:
and B.C. Chen, "New Capabilities and Methods ofthe X-12ARIMA SeasonalAdjustment Program," Journal of Business
and Economic Statistics, April 1998, Vol. 16, No. 2, pp. 127152. See "Revision of Seasonally Adjusted Labor Force Series
in 2003," in the February 2003 issue of this publication for a
discussion of the introduction of the use ofX-12 ARIMA for
seasonal adjustment of the labor force data and the effects
that it had on the data.
Beginning in January 2004, BLS converted to the use of
concurrent seasonal adjustment to produce seasonally
adjusted labor force estimates from the household survey.
Concurrent seasonal adjustment uses all available monthly
estimates, including those for the current month, in
developing seasonal factors. Previously, seasonal factors
for the CPS data had been projected twice a year. As a result
of this change in methodology, BLS no longer publishes
seasonal factors for the labor force data. For more information
on the adoption of concurrent seasonal adjustment for the
labor force data, see "Revision of Seasonally Adjusted Labor
Force Series in 2004," in the January 2004 issue of this
publication available on the Internet at http://www.bis.gov/
cps/cpsrs2004.pdf.
Revisions of historical data, usually for the most recent 5
years, are made only at the beginning of each calendar year.
However, as a result ofthe revisions to the estimates for 197081 based on 1980 census population counts, revisions to
seasonally adjusted series in early 1982 were carried back to
1970. In 1994, data were revised only for that year because of
the major survey redesign and the introduction of 1990
census-based population controls, adjusted for the estimated
undercount, into the Current Population Survey. In 1996,199093 data also were revised to incorporate these 1990 censusbased population controls and seasonally adjusted series
were revised back to 1990. Subsequent revisions were carried
back only to 1994 through 1998, when the standard 5-year
revision period was reinstated.
All labor force and unemployment rate statistics, as well
as the major employment and unemployment estimates, are
computed by aggregating independently adjusted series. For
example, for each of the major labor force components— employment, and unemployment—data for four sex-age groups
(men and women under and over 20 years of age) are separately adjusted for seasonal variation and are then added to
derive seasonally adjusted total figures. The seasonally adjusted figure for the labor force is a sum of four seasonally
adjusted civilian employment components and four seasonally adjusted unemployment components. The total for
unemployment is the sum of the four unemployment components, and the unemployment rate is derived by dividing the
resulting estimate of total unemployment by the estimate of
the labor force. Because of the independent seasonal adjustment of various series, components will not necessarily add
to totals.
Each January issue (March issue in 1996 and February
issue in 2003) of Employment and Earnings contains revised
seasonally adjusted data for selected labor force series based
on the experience through December and a description of the
current seasonal adjustment procedure.
National establishment data
BLS also uses the X-12-ARIMA seasonal adjustment program
to seasonally adjust national establishment-based
employment, hours, and earnings series derived from the
Current Employment Statistics (CES) program. (Use ofX-12
ARIMA. to seasonally adjust the CES data began in June
1996, with the release ofthe March 1995 benchmark revisions.)
Individual series are seasonally adjusted using either a
multiplicative or an additive model. For employment, seasonal
adjustment factors are directly applied to the component
levels. Individual 3-digit NAICS levels are seasonally adjusted,
and higher-level aggregates are formed by the summation of
these components. Seasonally adjusted totals for hours and
earnings are obtained by taking weighted averages of the
seasonally adjusted data for the component series.
Revised seasonally adjusted national establishmentbased series based on the experience through January 2005
and a detailed description ofthe current seasonal adjustment
procedure appear in the February 2005 issue of Employment
and Earnings.
Concurrent seasonal adjustment Beginning in June 2003
with the May 2003 first preliminary estimates, BLS began
computing seasonal factors concurrently with the monthly
estimate production. Previously, the factors were forecasted
twice a year. Concurrent seasonal adjustment is expected to
provide a more accurate seasonal adjustment, and smaller
revisions from the first preliminary estimates to the final
benchmarked estimates, than the semiannual updates. As a
result of the adoption of concurrent seasonal adjustment,
the CES program has discontinued the publication of
projected seasonal factors.
Additive and multiplicative models. Prior to the March 2002
benchmark release in June 2003, all CES series were adjusted
using multiplicative seasonal adjustment models. Although
the X-12-ARIMA seasonal adjustment program provides for
either an additive or a multiplicative adjustment depending
on which model best fits the individual series, the previous
CES processing system was unable to utilize additive
seasonal adjustments. A new processing system, introduced
simultaneously with the conversion to NAICS in June 2003,
is able to utilize both additive and multiplicative adjustments.
The article, "BLS National Establishment Estimates Revised
to Incorporate March 2004 Benchmarks" published in the
February 2005 issue of this publication contains a list of
which series are adjusted with additive seasonal adjustment
models and which series are adjusted with multiplicative
models. The article also lists which series are subject to the
calendar-effects modeling described below.
Variable survey intervals. Beginning with the release of the
1995 benchmark, BLS refined the seasonal adjustment
procedures to control for survey interval variations,
sometimes referred to as the 4- versus 5-week effect.
Although the CES survey is referenced to a consistent
concept—the pay period including the 12th of each month—
inconsistencies arise because there are sometimes 4 and
sometimes 5 weeks between the week including the 12th
in a given pair of months. In highly seasonal industries,
these variations can be an important determinant of the
magnitude of seasonal hires or layoffs that have occurred at
the time the survey is taken, thereby complicating seasonal
adjustment.
Standard seasonal adjustment methodology relies heavily
on the experience of the most recent 3 years to detennine the
expected seasonal change in employment for each month of
the current year. Prior to the implementation of the adjustment,
the procedure did not distinguish between 4- and 5-week
survey intervals and the accuracy of the seasonal expectation
depended in large measure on how well the current year's
survey interval corresponded with those from the previous
3 years. All else being the same, the greatest potential for
distortion occurred when the current month being estimated
had a 5-week interval but the 3 years preceding it were all
4-week intervals, or conversely, when the current month
had a 4-week interval but the 3 years preceding it were all
5-week intervals.
BLS uses REGARIMA (regression with autocorrelated
errors) modeling to identify the estimated size and
significance of the calendar effect for each published series.
REGARIMA combines standard regression analysis, which
measures correlation among; two or more variables, with
ARIMA modeling, which describes and predicts the behavior
of data series based on its own past history. For many
economic time series, including nonfarm payroll employment,
observations are autocorrelated over time. That is, each
month's value is significantly dependent on the observations
that precede it; these series, thus, usually can be successfully
fit using ARIMA models. If autocorrelated time series are
modeled through regression analysis alone, the measured
relationships among other variables of interest may be
distorted due to the influence of the autocorrelation. Thus,
the REGARIMA technique is appropriate to measuring relationships among variables of interest in series
that exhibit autocorrelation, such as nonfarm payroll
employment.
In this application, the correlations of interest are those
between employment levels in individual calendar months
and the lengths of the survey intervals for those months.
The REGARIMA models evaluate the variation in
employment levels attributable to 11 separate survey interval
variables, one specified for each month, except March. March
is excluded because there is almost always 4 weeks between
the February and March surveys. Models for individual
basic series are fitted with the most recent 10 years of data
available, the standard time span used for CES seasonal
adjustment.
The REGARIMA procedure yields regression coefficients
for each of the 11 months specified in the model. These
coefficients provide estimates of the strength of the
relationship between employment levels and the number of
weeks between surveys for the 11 modeled months. The
X-12-ARIMA software also produces diagnostic statistics
that permit the assessment of the statistical significance of
the regression coefficients., and all series are reviewed for
model adequacy.
Because the 11 coefficients derived from the REGARIMA
models provide an estimate of the magnitude of variation in
employment levels associated with the length of the survey
interval, these coefficients are used to adjust the CES data to
remove the calendar effect. These "filtered" series then are
seasonally adjusted using the standard X-12-ARIMA
software previously used.
For a few series, REGARIMA models did not fit well; these
series are seasonally adjusted with the X-12 software but
without the interval-effect adjustment. There are several
additional special effects modeled through the REGARIMA
process which are described below.
Construction series. BLS continues its special treatment, in
seasonally adjusting the construction industry series, which
began with the 1996 benchmark revision. In the application
of the interval-effect modeling process to the construction
series, there initially was difficulty in accurately identifying
and measuring the effect because-of the strong influence of
variable weather patterns on employment movements in the
industry. Further research allowed BLS to incorporate
interval-effect modeling for the construction industry by
disaggregating the construction series into its finer industry
and geographic estimating cells and tightening outlier
designation parameters. This process allowed a more precise
identification of weather-related outliers that had masked the
interval effect and clouded the seasonal adjustment pattern s
in general. With these outliers removed, interval-effect
modeling became feasible. The result is a seasonally adjusted
series for construction that is improved because it is
controlled for two potential distortions, unusual weather
events and the 4- versus 5-week effect
for such employees. This gap in information causes artificial
peaks in the hours series in shorter months that are reversed
in longer months.
The processing error occurs when respondents with
salaried workers report hours correctly (vary them according
to the length of the month), which than dictates that different
conversion factors be applied to payroll and hours. The CES
processing system uses the hours conversion factor for both
fields, resulting in peaks in the hourly earnings series in short
months and reversals in long months.
The series to which the length-of-pay-period adjustment
is applied are not subject to the 4- versus 5-week adjustment,
because the modeling cannot support the number of variables
that would be required in the regression equation to make
both adjustments.
Local government series. A special adjustment also is made:
in the local government, excluding education series in
November each year to account for variations in employment
due to the presence or absence of poll workers.
State establishment data
Seasonally adjusted nonfarm payroll employment data by
selected industry supersectors for all States and the District
of Columbia are presented in table B-7 of this publication.
As with the national establishment data, the State
establishment data are seasonally adjusted with the X-12ARIMA seasonal adjustment program. Seasonal adjustment
factors are applied directly to the employment estimates at
the supersector level and then aggregated to the State totals
for most States. For a few States that do not have many
publishable seasonally adjusted supersectors, however, total
nonfarm data are seasonally adjusted directly at the
aggregate level. The recomputation of seasonal factors and
historical revisions are made coincident with the annual
benchmark adjustments.
Refinements in hours and earnings seasonal adjustment
With the release of the 1997 benchmark, BLS implemented,
refinements to the seasonal adjustment process for the hou rs
and earnings series to correct for distortions related to the
method of accounting for the vaiying length of payroll
periods across months. There is a significant correlation
between over-the-month changes in both the average weekh
hours and the average hourly earnings series and the numb i
oi weekdays m a month, esuiting in nuneconom c
fluctuations m these two series. Both series show more
growth in "s tiorf' mc nths (20 or 21 v eekdays) than m "lonj ?
months (12 or 23 weekdays) The effect is stronger for the
hours than for the earnings series
The calendar effect is traceable to response and
processing errors associated with converting payroll and
hours information from >ample respondents with semimonthly
or monthly pay period* o a weekly e quivalent. The respons e
ernr come* from c ample respondents reporting a fixed
number of total hours tor workers ] egardless of the length
of the reference month, while the CES conversion
process assumes that the hours reporting will be variable.
Most likely, a constant level of hours is reported whe n
employees are salaried rather than paid by the hour, because
employers are less likely to keep actual detailed hours records
Region and State labor force data
Beginning in 1992, BLS introduced publication of seasonally
adjusted labor force data for the census regions and
divisions, the 50 States, the District of Columbia, and Puerto
Rico (tables C-l and C-2). Beginning in 2005, labor force
estimates for census regions are derived by summing the
component division estimates of employment and
unemployment and then calculating the unemployment rate.
Since 2005, a unified model-based approach has been used
at the census division and State level to simultaneously
remove the effects of sampling error and seasonality to
provide seasonally adjusted estimates for employment and
unemployment levels directly from the model, along with
associated error measures. Labor force levels and
unemployment rates are calculated from these two estimates.
Prior to 2005, a two-step approach was used. In the first
step, time-series models estimated and removed the effects
of sampling error from the series. In the second step, the
error-corrected series were seasonally adjusted using the
latest available version of X-ll, initially X-ll ARIMA, and
later the X-12-ARIMA seasonal adjustment program.
Usually, historical data for the most recent 5 years are
revised near the beginning of each calendar year, coincident
with the release of January estimates.
Floating holidays. BLS also makes special adjustments for
average weekly hours atnd average weekly overtime series to
account for the presence or absence of religious holidays iri
the April sui-veyreferen.ee period and the occurrence of Labor
Day in the September reference period.
