Labor force and unemployment by State and selected metropolitan areas 163 Employment and Unemployment Developments, September 1979 Employment rose in September and unemployment declined. The Nation's overall unemployment rate was 5.8 percent, down slightly from 6.0 percent in August but little different from the rates which have prevailed over the past year. Total employment—as measured by the monthly survey of households—advanced by 610,000 in September to 97.5 million. Over the past year, total employment grew by 2.5 million, with nearly three-fourths of the increase occurring in the 6 months from September to March. Nonfarm payroll employment—as measured by the monthly survey of establishments—rose by 135,000 in September to 89.9 million. Payroll employment has advanced by 2.8 million over the year; 2 million of that increase occurred prior to April. primarily among teenagers and adult women. Teenage employment returned to the July level, following a dip of comparable magnitude in August; employment of adult women rose in both months. Over the past year, employment has risen by 2.5 million. The bulk of this increase occurred during the first half of the 12-month period as employment has risen by 670,000 since March. Adult women accounted for most of the gains throughout the year. The civilian labor force was 103.5 million in September, up 450,000 from August and 2.5 million higher than September a year ago. The overall civilian labor force participation rate was 63.9 percent in September, the same as the all-time high attained in February and March. Unemployment Discouraged workers The September unemployment rate, 5.8 percent, and the number of unemployed persons, 6.0 million, edged down from the levels of the previous month. Since August 1978, the jobless rate has fluctuated within the range of 5.6 to 6.0 percent. Virtually all of the over-the-month reduction in unemployment took place among adult women and, more specifically, married women, reversing the increases of the prior month. The rate for adult women was 5.5 percent in September, compared with 5.9 percent in August. The unemployment rate for part-time workers also dropped slightly. Little or no change occurred in September for most other worker categories including adult men, teenagers, and full-time workers. (See tables A-33 and A-36.) The median duration of unemployment was up 1 week to 5.9 weeks in September, returning to about the July level, This movement reflected an over-the-month drop in short-term joblessness and an increase in those seeking jobs from 1 to 3 months. (See table A-37.) Total employment and the labor force Total employment rose by 610,000 in September, after registering a decline of about half that amount in August. The advance took place Discouraged workers are persons who report that they want work but are not looking for jobs because they believe they cannot find any. Because they do not meet the labor market t e s t that is, they are not engaged in active job search—they are classified as not in the labor force rather than unemployed. These data are published on a quarterly basis. The number of discouraged workers declined by 90,000 in the third quarter to 740,000, returning to the first quarter level. Close to threefourths of this number cited job-market factors as the reason for their discouragement. (See table A-53.) Industry payroll employment Nonfarm payroll employment rose 135,000 in September to 89.9 million, as job gains took place in 56 percent of the 172 industries comprising the BLS diffusion index. Payroll employment increased 2.8 million over the past year; 225,000 of these jobs were added during the third quarter of 1979 and 815,000 since March. (See tables B-4 and B-7.) Most of the September employment gain occurred in the service-producing industries. The service industry accounted for most of the increase, adding almost 100,000 jobs. While employment in wholesale and retail trade rose 50,000, transportation and public utilities and State and local government had reductions of 20,000 and 25,000, respectively. In the goods-producing sector, employment in mining continued its long-term advance, while construction edged down for the second straight month. Most of the specific industries in manufacturing showed little or no change. Hours The average workweek of production or nonsupervisory workers on private nonagricultural payrolls was 35.6 hours in September, unchanged from the levels of the previous 3 months. Manufacturing hours edged down a tenth of an hour to 40.0, while factory overtime was unchanged at 3.2 hours. In contrast, the construction workweek rose 0.4 hour for the second straight month to 37.6 hours. (See table C-7.) The index of aggregate weekly hours rose 0.3 percent in September as a result of the rise in payroll employment. The index was up 2.9 percent over the year, also due entirely to employment gains. (See table C-8.) Hourly and weekly earnings Average hourly earnings of production or nonsupervisory workers on private nonfarm payrolls rose 0.5 percent in September (seasonally adjusted) to a level 8.1 percent higher than that of September 1978. Average weekly earnings also rose half a percent over the month and were up 7.5 percent from September 1978. Before adjustment for seasonality, average hourly earnings rose 10 cents from August to $6.29, 47 cents higher than September 1978. Average weekly earnings were $222.50 in September, up $1.07 from August and $15.61 over the year (See tables C-1 and C-9.) The Hourly Earnings Index The Hourly Earnings Index—earnings adjusted for overtime in manufacturing, seasonality, and the effects of changes in the proportion of workers in high-wage and low-wage industries—was 233.7 (1967=100) in September, 0.7 percent higher than in August. The index was 7.9 percent above September a year ago. During the 12-month period ended in August, the Hourly Earnings Index in dollars of constant purchasing power decreased 3.5 percent. (See table C-9.) BLS Establishment Estimates Revised to March 1978 Benchmark Levels Maxine Both This issue of Employment and Earnings introduces revised estimates for employment in nonagricultural establishments, reflecting the most recent and complete employment counts, called benchmarks. The benchmark month for the current revision is March 1978, and most employment series have been revised beginning with April 1977. Hours, earnings, and labor turnover estimates, which are weighted by employment, are also subject to revision as a result of shifts in employment levels. Coincident with the benchmark adjustment, all seasonally adjusted series have also been revised. The benchmark review serves as a quality control process by providing both a more accurate measure of employment levels and a more accurate perspective on trends. Normally, new benchmarks are determined for March of each year at the most detailed industrial classification for which estimates are made. The difference between the benchmark for March and the corresponding estimate for March is assumed to have accumulated at a constant rate over the previous 12 months. Most series, therefore, are adjusted by applying a ratio to the estimates to wedge out the difference over the period from the new benchmark to the preceding one, 12 months earlier. The benchmark level is then projected forward to the current month based on the trend shown in monthly reports submitted by a sample of employers. The estimates adjusted to the new levels are then aggregated through successively larger groupings to total nonagricultural employment. were 1 percent or less except for mining, construction, and services. During the 1970's, the employment estimates for the total nonagricultural sector and for the major industry divisions generally have varied from benchmarks by about 0.1 percent. The magnitude of the current revision exceeds the average for reasons to be discussed later in this article. Table 2 indicates the magnitude of the differences arising from the current and previous revisions, by year and industry division. BLS monthly estimates of employment, hours, and earnings are published in considerable industry detail. Based upon the Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) system, estimates are prepared at the industry level (four-digit SIC) for manufacturing and at the industry group level (threedigit SIC) for most nonmanufacturing industries. Within the 3-digit industry groups (manufacturing and nonmanufacturing) for which employment estimates are published, 32 of the 255 groups were revised by 5 percent or more. The larger industries in terms of employment tended to have the smallest percentage revisions (table 3). The March 1978 estimates and benchmark levels for the major industry groups (two-digit SIC) in manufacturing appear in table 4. Of the 20 major groups in this division, 13 were revised by 1 percent or less. Revisions were somewhat larger for the basic three- and four-digit industries, but almost three-fifths of these differed by less than 3 percent and only about one-sixth differed by 5 percent or more. Why estimates differ from benchmarks 1978 employment percent estimates revised by 0.7 The March 1978 total nonagricultural employment benchmark of 84.5 million was 0.6 million above the corresponding sample-based estimate—a difference of 0.7 percent or 14 percent of the year-to-year change (table 1). Adjustments for each of the major industry divisions There are three basic reasons for the differences between benchmarks and estimates: (1) errors in adjustment for entry of new firms, (2) improvements in the quality of the benchmark data, and (3) errors in trend caused by nonrepre• Maxine Both it a labor economist in the Office of Employment Structure and Trends.

The BLS establishment survey uses the benchmark linkrelative estimating technique, which is a form of ratio estimation. The employment estimates for a month are projected from the levels estimated for the previous month based on the change in employment levels indicated by the firms responding to the survey. It is difficult to include in a timely manner newly formed businesses as reporters in the establishment survey. This type of omission .9 1.0 1.2 4 Table 3.

On the other hand, business deaths are reflected in the sample when businesses discontinue operations and cease to report. The BLS has developed bias adjustment factors which are applied to the employment estimates to correct for the undercount of business births. The bias adjustment factors, which vary by industry, are based on past experience and are reviewed and recalculated as part of the benchmarking process. Business formation rates change over time, especially during the business cycle, and thus correction for errors in estimates of business births contributes to the magnitude of the benchmark revision. Since the period March 1977 to March 1978 was characterized by an almost unprecedented employment expansion—65 percent larger than the expansions of either of the previous two years—the bias adjustment factors based on recent experience were insufficient. Research is still underway to improve the methods of calculating bias adjustment factors. Beginning with the March 1977 revision, the factors for the construction industry have been designed to vary with the business cycle as reflected by current independent sources of data.1 Work is underway to develop cyclically dependent bias factors for other industries. Revised bias adjustment factors are used beginning with April 1978 in the current revision. The effect of the new factors is noteworthy in several trade and service industries where the revised factors have a cumulative effect of adding more than 160,000 employees to the over-the-year (1978-79) change.Changes in adjustment factors also have an impact on selected industries in manufacturing and transportation and public utilities. The impact of these changes and the March 1978 correction in level is to add 938,000 workers to the June 1979 level of total nonagricultural pay- independent sources include data on building permits, housing starts, new business formations, and money supply. 9 roll employment, the last final estimate published on the previous benchmark. A second cause of differences arises from improvements in the quality of the benchmark source data. The expansion of unemployment insurance coverage to small firms in 1972, which eliminated the need to estimate the employment of many small establishments, was an example of this type of change. More recently, as of January 1978, Ul coverage was expanded to include the following previously uncovered groups of employees: Most domestic workers, agricultural workers employed by large farms, employees of State and local governments, and, except for religious workers, the employees of small nonprofit organizations and private elementary and secondary schools. Although domestic and agricultural workers are not included in the payroll survey, their inclusion as covered employees in 1978 may have improved the reporting of some of the other employee groups. Other evidence suggests that some public service employees paid from Federal funds but employed by private industry may have been excluded from previous universe counts. The third reason for differences between estimates and benchmarks is the presence of a certain amount of error in all sample-derived estimates. A complete monthly count of employment would reflect all changes, but complete coverage, involving 4 or 5 million reports each month, would be prohibitively expensive and time consuming. Derived from a sample of approximately 162,000 establishments, the BLS payroll series provide estimates at moderate cost within 3 weeks of the reference week. Annual benchmark revisions, which are an integral part of the BLS establishment survey program, remove the effect of these sampling errors from the estimates. Fourth, an establishment is classified by industry according to its major activity, which is determined by the principal product produced or handled, or service rendered. An establishment may engage in more than one activity. If its output of products or services changes so that what was once a secondary product or activity becomes a primary one, the establishment is reclassified to the industry of its new major activity. These changes are introduced into the employment estimates at the time of the benchmark adjustment, based on annual product and activity reports. Thus, differences between estimates and benchmarks for a particular industry may result because the estimates are linked forward from former benchmark levels which do not reflect intervening classification changes for individual establishments.2 10 Benchmark source material Ul records are the primary sources of benchmark data. With the expansion of Ul coverage in January 1978, approximately 98 percent of the total nonagricultural sector and 97 percent of the private nonagricultural sector are covered by various Ul programs. For the few remaining industries exempt from mandatory Ul coverage, the Bureau of Labor Statistics used other sources for benchmark information. Data on employees covered under Social Security laws, published by the Bureau of the Census in County Business Patterns, were used to augment Ul data for nonoffice insurance sales workers and workers in private educational services. Data for interstate railroads were obtained from the Interstate Commerce Commission; benchmarks for private elementary and secondary schools were derived from data obtained from the U.S. Office of Education and the National Catholic Welfare Association. Employment figures for religious organizations were obtained from data provided by the National Council of Churches and recent surveys of churches conducted by several State agencies. These sources have been used for benchmarking for a number of years. Employment estimates for the Federal Government are derived from official summaries of Federal employment prepared by the Office of Personnel Management (OPM). These summaries are complete counts of Federal workers and are not subject to benchmark revisions.3 The official OPM summaries do not provide breakouts of Federal employment by industry, such as hospitals, on a current monthly basis. These are projected by BLS from a sample of Federal establishments. In benchmarking the State and local government sector, the Bureau of Labor Statistics has for many years used the 5-year Censuses of Government and the Annual Surveys of Government conducted by the Bureau of the Census, because most States had not provided Ul coverage to workers in these industries. In January 1978, Ul coverage was extended to these workers. However, estimates of State and local government were not revised at this time because analysis of the first quarter 1978 Ul data indicated significant problems in their use as benchmarks. Some 2 The changes are wedged or tapered into the estimates over year in which the change in primary activity took place. 3 Employment of the Central Intelligence Agency and the tional Security Agency and employees of the Department of fense paid from nonappropriated funds are not included in OPM summaries or these estimates. the NaDethe newly covered State and local government employees were not reported, and Kentucky and New Hampshire were unable to enact legislation to make coverage mandatory in the first quarter of 1978. In addition, about 200,000 public service employees throughout the Nation were not included in the first quarter of 1978 Ul reports. The Bureau hopes to have improved data for succeeding quarters, at which time a revision of estimates of State and local government to new benchmarks will be carried out. The Bureau's reporting sample is also an important source of benchmark information. Since sample reports are current and are reviewed monthly, reporting errors, detected and corrected in the sample reports, can also be corrected in the corresponding benchmark reports. The industry classification of each sample establishment is reviewed annually on the basis of information supplied by the employer. Changes in industry classification of sample reports often precede such changes in other sources of information. Insofar as sample reports were known to differ from the corresponding employer's reports included in other benchmark source material, the data in the other sources were modified accordingly. Relation of employment benchmarks to other series Benchmarks are not available for the employment of women and production or nonsupervisory worker series. These series are produced by applying an estimated ratio of these workers to the estimated all-employee figures. The ratios are derived monthly from the BLS reporting sample. Benchmarks are not available for the hours and earnings and labor turnover series, and they too reflect only the reporting sample. For primary estimating cells, i.e. region and/or size strata within the most detailed industry classifications, the women-worker/all-employee ratio, the productionworker/all-employee ratio, average weekly hours, average hourly earnings, and labor turnover rates are computed directly from reported figures. Series for broader industry groupings, however, require a weighting mechanism to yield meaningful averages. The employment estimates for the primary cells are used as weights for the employment of women, labor turnover rates, and production or nonsupervisory worker employment estimates for broader industry groupings. The production or nonsupervisory worker employment estimates for the primary cells are used as weights for the hours and earnings estimates for the broader industry groupings. Adjustment of the all-employee estimates to new benchmarks may result in reallocation of weights, which, in turn, may change the labor turnover, employment of women, and the production or nonsupervisory worker employment, hours, and earnings estimates. For ttie employment estimates—women and production or nonsupervisory workers—the revisions at the estimating cell level are added to become the summary level revision. To influence the hours, earnings, and labor turnover averages of a broad group, employment changes have to be relatively large and must affect industries which have substantially higher or lower averages than the other industries in their group. Generally speaking, new benchmarks do not change hours and earnings and labor turnover series for broader groupings by more than 0.1 hour, 1 cent, or 0.1 per 100 employees, respectively. The changes in the hours, earnings, and labor turnover estimates are shown in table 5. Revision of seasonally adjusted data The seasonal adjustment programs used to adjust establishment-based series incorporate an adaptation of the standard ratio-to-movingaverage method. They provide for "moving" adjustment factors to take account of changing seasonal patterns. Each year of data added to a series will change the previous few years' factors slightly, even when the unadjusted figures for those years remain the same. The BLS Seasonal Factor Method, which is used presently to seasonally adjust the employment, hours, and earnings series, was designed for time series with steady or slowly changing seasonal patterns. Some series are not adequately adjusted by this method. For example, the retail trade employment series, which is affected by abrupt shifts in employment at the Christmas season, and which is also affected significantly by the shifting date of Easter, is subjected to special seasonal adjustment procedures. The BLS also takes into account, in seasonally adjusting the employment series for the transportation equipment industry, the shifting dates of automobile plant retooling during the summer months. The Federal Government series is adjusted to remove the effect of the temporary hiring of postal workers at Christmas time and of Decennial Census of Population enumerators. Special adjustments have been used for a number of years in seasonally adjusting these series. Seasonal factors in labor turnover reflect the variation in the number of times a day of the week (Monday, for example) falls in a particular month. To eliminate this calendar irregularity, the Bureau uses "trading day" factors. The Census X-11 Method with the "trading day" option is used in adjusting the labor turnover series; the BLS 11 IO Table 5.

Publication of revised historical data Revised historical data (both seasonally adjusted and unadjusted) for detailed industry categories of employment, hours and earnings, and labor turnover will be presented in a supplement to Employment and Earnings (to be issued in early November) for the periods January 1974 through June 1979 (seasonally adjusted data) and for April 1977 through June 1979 (unadjusted data). Data for earlier time periods can be found in Employment and Earnings, United States, 1909-78 (BLS Bulletin 1312-11), issued in 1979. Monthly employment estimates are published for most of the significant industries in the nonagricultural sector. Those industries for which monthly data are not published either are too small or are not represented by a sufficient sample. However, the March benchmark figures for a number of such industries are published in table 6. The expansion in Ul coverage makes it possible to obtain accurate employment counts for all months (and quarterly wages) for the other industries not published as a regular feature of the Current Employment Statistics Program. Seasonal adjustment factors are recalculated annually and updated factors are published in conjunction with the benchmark revisions. The seasonal factors that will be used for the period July 1979 through June 1980 for all establishment series are shown in tables 7 through 13. 13 Table 6.

These factors were derived using data through May 1979 The factors should be used with current estimates (adjusted to the March 1978 benchmarks) beginning July 1979. The seasonal movements are measured in order to adjust the data statistically for such recurring events as warm and cold weather, crop-growing cycles, holidays, vacations, regular industry model changeover periods, and the like. These movements are generally the largest single component of month-to-month change in employment, hours, earnings, and labor turnover. The seasonal factors which follow enable the analyst to remove these influences from the data in order to determine more basic trends. 7.

Introduction The statistics in this periodical are compiled from two major sources: (1) Household interviews, and (2) reports from employers. Data based on household interviews are obtained from a sample survey of the population 16 years of age and over. The survey is conducted each month by the Bureau of the Census for the Bureau of Labor Statistics and provides comprehensive data on the labor force, the employed and the unemployed, including such characteristics as age, sex, race, family relationship, marital status, occupation, and industry attachment. The survey also provides data on the characteristics and past work experience of those not in the labor force. The information is collected by trained interviewers from a sample of about 56,000 households, representing 614 areas in 1,113 counties and independent cities, with coverage in 50 States and the District of Columbia. The data collected are based on the activity or status reported for the calendar week including the 12th of the month. Data based on establishment records are compiled each month from mail questionnaires by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, in cooperation with State agencies. The establishment survey is designed to provide industry information on nonagricultural wage and salary employment, average weekly hours, average hourly and weekly earnings, and labor turnover for the Nation, States, and metropolitan areas. The employment, hours, and earnings series are based on payroll reports from a sample of establishments employing over 30 million nonagricultural wage and salary workers. The data relate to all workers, full- or part-time, who received pay during the payroll period which includes the 12th of the month. Based on a somewhat smaller sample, labor turnover data relate to actions occurring during the entire month. RELATION BETWEEN THE HOUSEHOLD AND ESTABLISHMENT SERIES The household and establishment data supplement one another, each providing significant types of information that the other cannot suitably supply. Population characteristics, for example, are readily obtained only from the household survey whereas detailed industrial classifications can be reliably derived only from establishment reports. Data from these two sources differ from each other because of differences in definition and coverage, sources of information, methods of collection, and estimating procedures. Sampling variability and response errors are additional reasons for discrepancies. The major factors which have a differential effect on levels and trends of the two series are as follows. 168 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 survey week in family-operated enterprises. Employment in both agricultural and nonagricultural industries is included. The payroll survey covers only wage and salary employees on the payrolls of nonagricultural establishments. Multiple jobholding. The household approach provides information on the work status of the population without duplication, since each person is classified as employed, unemployed or not in the labor force. Employed persons holding more than one job are counted only once and are classified according to the job at which they worked the greatest number of hours during the survey week. In the figures based on establishment records, persons who worked in more than one establishment during the reporting period are counted each time their names appear on payrolls. Unpaid absences from jobs. The household survey includes among the employed all persons who had jobs but were not at work during the survey week—that is, were not working but had jobs from which they were temporarily absent because of illness, bad weather, vacation, labor-management dispute, or because they were taking time off for various other reasons, even if they were not paid by their employers for the time off. In the figures based on payroll reports, persons on leave paid for by the company are included, but not those on leave without pay for the entire payroll period. For a comprehensive discussion of the differences between household and establishment survey employment data, see Gloria P. Green's article "Comparing Employment Estimates from Household and Payroll Surveys," Monthly Labor Review, December 1969. Reprints of this article are available upon request from the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Hours of work The household survey measures hours actually worked whereas the payroll survey measures hours paid for by employers. In the household survey data, all persons with a job but not at work are excluded from the hours distributions and the computations of average hours. In the payroll survey, employees on paid vacation, paid holiday, or paid sick leave are included and assigned the number of hours for which they were paid during the reporting period. COMPARABILITY OF THE HOUSEHOLD DATA WITH OTHER SERIES COMPARABILITY OF THE PAYROLL EMPLOYMENT DATA WITH OTHER SERIES Unemployment insurance data. The unemployed total from the household survey includes all persons who did not have a job at all during the survey week and were looking for work or were waiting to be called back to a job from which they had been laid off, regardless of whether or not they were eligible for unemployment insurance. Figures on unemployment insurance claims, prepared by the Employment and Training Administration of the Department of Labor, exclude persons who have exhausted their benefit rights, new workers who have not earned rights to unemployment insurance, and persons losing jobs not covered by unemployment insurance systems (agriculture, domestic service, self-employment, unpaid family work, and religious organizations). Beginning in January 1978, coverage was extended to include domestic workers whose employers paid $1,000 or more in wages in any calendar quarter, agricultural employees whose employers engaged 10 or more workers in 20 weeks or paid a total of $20,000 or more in wages in any calendar quarter, and almost all State and local government employees. In addition, the qualifications for drawing unemployment compensation differ from the definition of unemployment used in the household survey. For example, persons with a job but not at work and persons working only a few hours during the week are sometimes eligible for unemployment compensation but are classified as employed rather than unemployed in the household survey. For an examination of the similarities and differences between State insured unemployment and total unemployment, see "Measuring Total and State Insured Unemployment" by Gloria P. Green in the June 1971 issue of the Monthly Labor Review. Reprints of this article may be obtained upon request. Statistics on manufactures and business. Bureau of the Census. BLS establishment statistics on employment differ from employment counts derived by the Bureau of the Census from its censuses or annual sample surveys of manufacturing establishments and the censuses of business establishments. The major reasons for some noncomparability are different treatment of business units con- Agricultural employment estimates of the Department of Agriculture. The principal differences in coverage are the inclusion of pers6ns under 16 in the Statistical Research Service (SRS) 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 are also wide differences in sampling techniques and collecting and estimating methods, which cannot be readily measured in terms of impact on differences in level and trend of the two series. sidered parts of an establishment, such as central administrative offices and a u x i l i a r y units, the industrial classification of establishments, and different reporting patterns by multiunit companies. There are also differences in the scope of the industries covered, e.g., the Census of Business excludes professional services, public utilities, and financial establishments, whereas these are included in BLS statistics. County Business Patterns. Data in County Business Patterns (CBP), published by the Bureau of the Census, U.S. Department of Commerce, differ from BLS establishment statistics in the treatment of central administrative offices and auxiliary units. Differences may also arise because of industrial classification and reporting practices. In addition, CBP excludes interstate railroads and government, and coverage is incomplete for some of the nonprofit activities. Employment covered by State unemployment insurance programs. Most nonagricultural wage and salary workers are covered by the unemployment insurance programs. Beginning in January 1972, coverage was expanded to include employees of small firms and selected nonprofit activities who had not been covered previously. However, certain activities, such as interstate railroads, parochial schools, and churches are not covered by unemployment insurance whereas these are included in BLS establishment statistics. Beginning in January 1978, coverage was extended to include domestic workers whose employers paid $1,000 or more in wages in any calendar quarter, agricultural employees whose employers engaged 10 or more workers in 20 weeks or paid a total of $20,000 or more in wages in any calendar quarter, and almost all State and local government employees. Household data (A tables) COLLECTION AND COVERAGE Statistics on the employment status of the population, the personal, occupational, and other characteristics of the employed, the unemployed and persons not in the labor force, and related data are compiled for the BLS by the Bureau of the Census in its Current Population Survey (CPS). A detailed description of this survey appears in Concepts and Methods Used in Labor Force Statistics Derived from the Current Population Survey, BLS Report 463. This report is available from BLS upon request. These monthly surveys of the population are conducted with a scientifically selected sample designed to represent the civilian noninstitutional population. Respondents are interviewed to obtain information about the employment status of each member of the household 16 years of age and over. Separate statistics are also collected and published for 14 and 15 year olds. The inquiry relates to activity or status during the calendar week, Sunday through Saturday, which includes the 12th of the month. This is known as the survey week. Actual field interviewing is conducted in the following week. Inmates of institutions, members of the Armed Forces, and persons under 14 years of age are not covered in the regular monthly enumerations and are excluded from the population and labor force statistics shown in this report. Data on members of the Armed Forces, who are included as part of the categories "total noninstitutional population" and "total labor force," are obtained from the Department of Defense. Each month, 56,000 occupied units are eligible for interview. About 2,500 of these households are visited but interviews are not obtained because the occupants are not found at home after repeated calls or are unavailable for other reasons. This represents a noninterview rate for the. survey of about 4 percent. In addition to the 56,000 occupied units, there are 9,500 sample units in an average month which are visited but found to be vacant or otherwise not to be enumerated. Part of the sample is changed each month. The rotation plan provides for three-fourths of the sample to be common from 1 month to the next and one-half to be common with the same month a year earlier. Beginning in September 1975, the sampie was enlarged by 9,000 169 households in order to provide greater reliability for smaller States and thus permit the publication of annual statistics for all 50 States and the District of Columbia. These supplementary households were added to the national 47,000 household sample in January 1978. CONCEPTS Employed persons comprise (a) all those who during the survey week did any work at all as paid employees, in their own business, profession, or farm, or who worked 15 hours or more as unpaid workers in an enterprise operated by a member of the family, and (b) all those who were not working but who had jobs or businesses from which they were temporarily absent because of illness, bad weather, vacation, labor-management dispute, or personal reasons, whether or not they were paid by their employers for the time off, and whether or not they were seeking other jobs. Each employed person is counted only once. Those who held more than one job are counted in the job at which they worked the greatest number of hours during the survey week. Included in the total are employed citizens of foreign countries, temporarily in the United States, who are not living on the premises of an Embassy. Excluded are persons whose only activity consisted of work around the house (such as own home housework, and painting or repairing own home) or volunteer work for religious, charitable, and similar organizations. Unemployed persons comprise all persons who did not work during the survey week, who made specific efforts to find a job within the past 4 weeks, and who were available for work during the survey week (except for temporary illness). Also included as unemployed are those who did not work at all, were available for work, and were waiting to be called back to a job from which they had been laid off; or (b) were waiting to report to a new wage or salary job within 30 days. Duration of unemployment represents the length of time (through the current survey week) during which persons classified as unemployed had been continuously looking for work. For persons on layoff, duration of unemployment represents the number of full weeks since the termination of their most recent employment. A period of 2 weeks or more during which a person was employed or ceased looking for work is considered to break the continuity of the present period of seeking work. Measurements of mean and median duration are computed from a distribution of single weeks of unemployment. Unemployed persons by reasons for unemployment are divided into four major groups. (1) Job losers are persons whose employment ended involuntarily who immediately began looking for work and persons on layoff. (2) Job leavers are persons who quit or otherwise terminated their employment voluntarily and immediately began looking for work. (3) Reentrants are persons who previously worked at a full-time job lasting 2 weeks or longer but were out of the labor force prior to beginning to look for work, (4) New entrants are persons who never worked at a full-time job lasting 2 weeks or longer. Jobseekers are all unemployed persons who made specific efforts to find a job, sometime during the 4-week period preceding the survey week. Jobseekers do not include persons unemployed because they (a) were waiting to be called back to a job from which they had been laid off or (b) were waiting to report to a new wage or salary job within 30 days. Jobseekers are grouped by the methods used to seek work, including going to public or private employment agency or to an employer directly, seeking assistance from friends or relatives, placing or answering ads, or utilizing some "other" 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 pick-up point. The civilian labor force comprises the total of all civilians classified as employed or unemployed in accordance with the criteria 170 described above. The "total labor force" also includes members of the Armed Forces stationed either in the United States or abroad. 777e unemployment rate represents the number unemployed as a percent of the civilian labor force. This measure can also be computed for groups within the labor force classified by sex, age, marital status, race, etc. The job-loser, job-leaver, reentrant, and new entrant rates are each calculated as a percent of the civilian labor force; the sum of the rates for the four groups thus equals the total unemployment rate. Participation rates represent the proportion of the noninstitutional population that is in the labor force. Two types of participation rates are published. The total labor force participation rate, which is the ratio of the total labor force and the total noninstitutional population; and the civilian labor force participation rate, which is the ratio of the civilian labor force and the civilian noninstitutional population. Participation rates are usually published for sex-age groups, often cross-classified by other demographic characteristics such as race and educational attainment. Employment-population ratios represent the proportion of the total noninstitutional population that is employed. This measure can also be computed as a ratio of employment and the civilian noninstitutional population. Not in labor force includes all civilians 16 years and over who are not classified as employed or unemployed. These persons are further classified as "engaged in own home housework," "in school," "unable to work" because of long-term physical or mental illness, and "other." The "other" group includes for the most part retired persons, those reported as too old to work, the voluntarily idle, and seasonal workers for whom the survey week fell in an "off" season and who were not reported as unemployed. Persons doing only incidental unpaid family work (less than 15 hours) are also classified as not in the labor force. For persons not in the labor force, data on previous work experience, intentions to seek work again, desire for a job at the time of interview, and reasons for not looking for work are compiled on a quarterly basis. As of January 1970, the detailed questions for persons not in the labor force are asked only in those households that are in the fourth and eighth months of the sample, i.e., the "outgoing" groups, those which had been in the sample for 3 previous months and would not be in for the subsequent month. Between 1967 and 1969, the detailed not-in-labor force questions were asked of persons in the first and fifth months in the sample, i.e., the "incoming" groups. Occupation, industry, and class of worker for the employed apply to the job held in the survey week. Persons with two or more jobs are classified in the job at which they worked the greatest number of hours during the survey week. The unemployed are classified according to their last full-time civilian job lasting 2 weeks or more. The occupation and industry groups used in data derived from the CPS household interveiws are defined as in the 1970 Census of Population. Information on the detailed categories included in these groups is available upon request. The class-of-worker breakdown specifies "wage and salary workers," subdivided into private and government workers, "selfemployed workers," and "unpaid family workers." Wage and salary workers receive wages, salary, commission, tips, or pay in kind from a private employer or from a government unit. Selfemployed persons are those who work for profit or fees in their own business, profession, or trade, or operate a farm. Unpaid family workers are persons working without pay for 15 hours a week or more on a farm or in a business operated by a member of the household to whom they are related by blood or marriage. Hours of work statistics relate to the actual number of hours worked during the survey week. For example, a person who normally works 40 hours a week but who was off on the Columbus Day holiday would be reported as working 32 hours even though he was paid for the holiday. For persons working in more than one job, the figures relate to the number of hours worked in all jobs during the week. However, all the hours are credited to the major job. The distribution of employment by hours worked relate to persons "at work" during the survey week. At work data differ from data on totai employment because the latter include persons in zero-hour worked category, "with a job but not at work." Included in this latter group are persons who were on vacation, ill, involved in a labor dispute, or otherwise absent from their jobs for voluntary, noneconomic reasons. Persons who worked 35 hours or more in the survey week are designated as working "full time," persons who worked between 1 and 34 hours are designated as working "part time." Part-time workers are classified by their usual status at their present job (either full time or part time) and by their reason for working part time during the survey week (economic or other reasons). "Economic reasons" include: Slack work, material shortages, repairs to plant or equipment, start or termination of job during the week, and inability to find full-time work. "Other reasons" include: Labor dispute, bad weather, own illness, vacation, demands of home, housework, school, no desire for full-time work, and fulltime worker only during peak season. Persons on full-time schedules include, in addition to those working 35 hours or more, those who worked from 1-34 hours for noneconomic reasons and usually work full time. Full- and part-time labor force. The full-time labor force consists of persons working on full-time schedules, persons involuntarily working part time (part time for economic reasons), and unemployed persons seeking full-time jobs. The part-time labor force consists of persons working part time voluntarily and unemployed persons seeking part-time work. Persons with a job but not at work during the survey week are classified according to whether they usually work full or part time. Labor force time lost is a measure of aggregate hours lost to the economy through unemployment and involuntary part-time employment and is expressed as a percent of potentially available aggregate hours. It is computed by assuming: (1) That unemployed persons looking for full-time work lost an average of 37.5 hours, (2) that those looking for part-time work lost the average number of hours actually worked by voluntary part-time workers during the survey week, and (3) that persons on part time for economic reasons lost the difference between 37.5 hours and the actual number of hours they worked. Race. White and black and other are terms used to describe the race of workers. The black and other category, which until recently had been identified as "Negro and other races" and prior to 1969 as "nonwhite," includes all persons who identified themselves in the enumeration process to be other than white. At the time of the 1970 Census of Population, 89 percent of the black and other population group were black; the remainder were American Indians, Alaskan Natives, Asian and Pacific Islanders, and all other "nonwhite" groups. The term "black" is used in this volume when the relevant data are provided exclusively for the black population. Hispanic origin refers to persons who identified themselves in the enumeration process as Mexican, Puerto Rican living on the mainland, Cuban, Central or South American or other Hispanic origin or descent. According to the 1970 Census, approximately 96 percent of their population is white. Major activity: going to school and major activity: other are terms used to describe whether the activity of young persons during the reference week are primarily one of going to school or not. Statistics on major activity are published every month in table A-7 for 16-21 year-olds by employment status, race, and sex, and, if unemployed, whether s'eeking full- or part-time work. Vietnam-era veterans are those who served in the Armed Forces of the United States between August 5, 1964, and May 7, 1975. Tables for veterans in this volume are limited to males in the civilian noninstitutional population; i.e., veterans in institutions and females are excluded. Nonveterans are males who never served in the Armed Forces. Poverty areas classification consists of all Census geographical divisions in which 20 percent or more of the residents were poor according to the 1970 Decennial Census. Persons were classified as poor or nonpoor by using income thresholds adopted by a Federal interagency committee in 1969. These thresholds vary by family size, composition, and residence (farm-nonfarm). While poverty areas have a substantial concentration of low-income residents, many poor persons live outside these areas and, conversely, the areas include many people who are not poor. The metropolitan areas classification consists of the total of all areas encompassed by Standard Metropolitan Statistical Areas (SMSA's). The metropolitan area total is based on the number of SMSA's as defined in the 1970 Decennial Census and does not include any subsequent additions or changes. Nonmetropolitan areas refer to the total of all areas outside SMSA's. The nonmetropolitan total is disaggregated info farm and nonfarm components. HISTORIC COMPARABILITY Raised lower age limit Beginning with data for 1967, the lower age limit for official statistics on persons in the labor force was raised from 14 to 16 years. At the same time, several definitions were sharpened to clear up ambiguities. The principal definitional changes were: (1) Counting as unemployed only persons who were currently available for work and who had engaged in some specific jobseeking activity within the past 4 weeks, an exception to the latter condition is made for persons waiting to start a new job in 30 days or waiting to be recalled from layoff; in the past, the current availability test was not applied and the time period for jobseeking was ambiguous; (2) counting as employed persons who were absent from their jobs in the survey week because of strikes, bad weather, etc. and were also looking for other jobs; previously, these persons had been classified as unemployed; (3) sharpening the questions on hours of work, duration of unemployment, and self-employment in order to increase their reliability. These changes did not affect the unemployment rate by more than one-fifth of a percentage point in either direction, although the distribution of unemployment by sex was affected. The number of employed was reduced about 1 million because of the exclusion of 14- and 15-year-olds. For persons 16 years and over, the only employment series appreciably affected were those relating to hours of work and class of worker. A detailed discussion of the changes and their effect on the various series is contained in "New Definitions for Employment and Unemployment" by Robert L. Stein in the February 1967 issue of Employment and Earnings and MonthlyReport on the Labor Force. Reprints may be obtained upon request. Noncomparability of labor force levels Before the changes introduced in 1967, the labor force data were not comparable for three earlier periods: (1) Beginning 1953, as a result of the introduction of data from the 1950 census into the estimation procedure, population levels were raised by about 600,000; labor force, total employment, and agricultural employment by about 350,000, primarily affecting the figures for totals and males; other categories were relatively unaffected; (2) beginning 1960, the inclusion of Alaska and Hawaii resulted in an increase of about 500,000 in the population and about 300,000 in the labor force, four-fifths of this in nonagricultural employment; other labor force categories were not appreciably affected; (3) beginning 1962, the introduction of figures from the 1960 census reduced the population by about 50,000, labor force and employment by about 200,000; unemployment totals were virtually unchanged. 171 In addition, beginning 1972, information from the 1970 census was introduced into the estimation procedures, producing an increase in the civilian noninstitutional population of about 800,000; labor force and employment totals were raised by a little more than 300,000, and unemployment levels and rates were essentially unchanged. A subsequent population adjustment based on the 1970 census was introduced in March 1973. This adjustment affected the white and black and other groups but had little effect on totals. The adjustment resulted in the reduction of nearly 300,000 in the white population and an increase of the same magnitude in 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 black and other labor force rose by about 210,000. Unemployment levels and rates were not significantly affected. Beginning in January 1974, the methodology used to prepare independent estimates of the civilian noninstitutional population was modified to an "inflation-deflation" approach. This change in the derivation of the population estimates had its greatest impact on estimates of 20-24 year-old males—particularly those of the black and other population—but had little effect on 16 and over totals. Additional information on the adjustment procedure appears in "CPS Population Controls Derived from Inflation-Deflation Method of Estimation" in the February 1974 issue of Employment and Earnings. Effective July 1975, as a result of the immigration of Vietnamese refugees into the United States, the total and black-and-other independent population controls for persons 16 years and over were adjusted upward by 7 6 , 0 0 0 - 3 0 , 0 0 0 males and 46,000 females. The addition of the refugees increased the black-and-other population by less than 1 percent in any age-sex group, and all of the changes were in the "other" population. Beginning in 1978, the introduction of an expansion of the sample and revisions in the estimation procedures resulted in an increase of roughly a quarter of a million in the overall civilian labor force and employment totals; unemployment levels and rates were essentially unchanged. An explanation of the procedural changes and an indication of the differences appear in "Revisions in the Current Population Survey in January 1978" in the February 1978 issue of Employment and Earnings. Beginning in October 1978, the race of the individual was determined by the household respondent for the incoming rotation group households, rather than determined by the interviewer as before. The purpose of this change is to provide more accurate estimates of characteristics by race. Thus, in October 1978, one-eighth of the sample households has race determined by the household respondent and seven-eighths of the sample households has race determined by interviewer observation. The corresponding numbers are 2/8 and 6/8 in November 1978, 3/8 and 5/8 in December 1978, 4/8 and 4/8 from January 1979 through September 1979, 5/8 and 3/8 in October 1979, and so on, until the entire sample has race determined by the household respondent in January 1980. Although the impact of this change is presently unknown, it is possible that it will cause a break in the time series given for some racial statistics. Beginning in 1979, the first stage ratio estimation method was changed in the CPS estimation procedure. The new procedure is described in the Estimating Methods section. The reasoning behind the change and an indication of the differences appear in "Revisions in the Current Population Survey in January 1979" in the February issue of Employment and Earnings. Differences between the old and new procedures exist only for metropolitan and nonmetropolitan estimates, not for the total U.S. 172 Changes in occupational classification system Beginning with 1 9 7 1 , the comparability of occupational employment data was affected as a result of changes in census occupational classifications introduced into the Current Population Survey (CPS). These changes stemmed from an exhaustive review of the classification system to be used for the 1970 Census of Population. This review, the most comprehensive since the 1940 census, was to reduce the size of large groups, to be more specific about general and "not elsewhere classified" groups, and to provide information on emerging significant occupations. Differences in March 1970 employment levels tabulated on both the 1960 and 1970 classification systems ranged from a drop of 650,000 in operatives to an increase of 570*000 in service workers, much.of which resulted from a shift between these two groups; the nonfarm laborers group increased by 420,000, and changes in other groups amounted to 220,000 or less. An additional major group was created by splitting the operatives category into two: operatives, except transport, and transport equipment operatives. Separate data for these two groups first became available in January 1972. At the same time, several changes in titles, as well as in order of presentation, were introduced; for example, the title of the managers, officials, and proprietors group was changed to "managers and administrators, except farm," since only proprietors performing managerial duties are included in the category. Apart from the effects of revisions in the occupation classification system beginning in 1 9 7 1 , comparability of occupational employment data was further affected in December 1 9 7 1 , when a question eliciting information on major activities or duties was added to the monthly CPS questionnaire in order to determine more precisely the occupational classification of individuals. This change resulted in several dramatic occupational shifts, particularly from managers and administrators to other groups. Thus, meaningful comparisons of occupational levels cannot always be made for 1972 and subsequent years with earlier periods. However, revisions in the occupational classification system as well as in the CPS questionnaire are believed to have had but a negligible impact on unemployment rates. Additional information on changes in the occupational classification system of the CPS appears in "Revisions in Occupational Classifications for 1 9 7 1 " and "Revisions in the Current Population Survey" in the February 1971 and February 1972 issues, respectively, of Employment and Earnings. Changes in sample design Since the inception of the survey, there have been various changes in the design of the CPS sample. Most of these changes were made in order to improve the efficiency of the sample design and/or to increase the reliability of the sample estimates. One major change made after every decennial census is to change the sample design to make use of the recently collected census materials. Also, occasionally the sample is expanded in terms of number of sample areas and number of sample persons. In 1953, a rotation plan was introduced in which a sample unit would be interviewed for 4 months, leave the sample for eight months, and then return to the sample for another 4 months. When Alaska and Hawaii achieved statehood, three more sample areas were added to the sample to account for the population in these States. After the 1960 census, selection of a major portion of the sample from census address lists was begun, though a portion of the sample is still collected using area sampling. Following the 1970 census, the ultimate sampling unit was changed from a non-contiguous cluster of six housing units to a usually contiguous cluster of four housing units. A recent change was introduced in January 1978, when a supplemental sample of housing units, selected in 24 States and the District of Columbia and designed to provide more reliable annual Households eligible Time period Aug. 1947 to Jan. 1954 Feb. 1954 to Apr. 1956. May 1956 to Dec. 1959 , Jan. 1960 to Feb. 1963 , Mar. 1963 to Dec. 1966, Jan. 1967 to July 1971 , Aug. 1971 to July 1972, Aug. 1972 to Dec, 1977, Jan. 1978 to present . . , Beginning in May 1956, these areas were chosen to provide coverage in each State and the District of Columbia. 2 These are households which were visited, but were found to average estimates for States, was incorporated with the existing design. A coverage improvement sample was included in computing the estimates beginning in October 1978 in order to provide coverage of mobile homes and new construction housing units that previously had no chance for selection in the CPS sample. This sample is composed of approximately 450 sample household units which represent 237,000 occupied mobile homes and 600,000 new construction housing units. These new construction units are composed of those units where building permits were issued prior to January 1970 and construction was not completed by the time of the 1970 Census (i.e., April 1970). The extent of other sources of housing undercoverage is unknown but believed to be small. The inclusion of this coverage improvement sample in the CPS does not have a significant effect on the estimates. The following table provides a description of some aspects of the CPS sample c'esign in use during the referenced data collection periods. For a more detailed account of the history of the CPS sample design, see The Current Population Survey: Design and Methodology, U.S. Department of Commerce, Bureau of the Census, Technical Paper No. 40, or Concepts and Methods used in Labor Force Statistics Derived from the Current Population Su(vey, BLS Report 463. 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 respondents. There are no subsequent adjustments to independent benchmark data on labor force, employment, or unemployment. Therefore, revisions of the historical data are not an inherent feature of this statistical program. The CPS estimation procedure involves weighting the data from each sample person. The basic weight, which is the inverse of the probability of the person being in the sample, is a rough measure of the number of actual persons that the sample person represents. In States supplemented in the 1978 expansion, almost all sample persons within the same sample area have the same basic weight, but the weight may differ across sample areas. The basic weight is the same for almost all sample persons in unsupplemented States. The basic weights are then adjusted for noninterview, and the ratio estimation procedure is applied.

The weights for all interviewed households are adjusted to the extent needed to account for occupied sample households for which no information was obtained because of absence, impassable roads, refusals, or unavailability of the respondent for other reasons. This adjustment is made separately by combinations of sample areas within each State and the District of Columbia, and within these, for six groups—two race categories (white, and black and other) within three residence categories. For sample areas which are Standard Metropolitan Statistical Areas (SMSA's), these residence categories are the central cities, and the urban and the rural balance of the SMSA's. For other sample areas, the residence categories are urban, rural nonfarm, and rural farm. The proportion of sample households not interviewed varies from 3 to 5 percent depending on weather, vacations, etc. 2. Ratio estimates. The distribution of the population selected for the sample may differ somewhat, by chance, from that of the population as a whole, in such characteristics as age, race, sex, and residence. Since these characteristics are closely correlated with labor force participation and other principal measurements made from the sample, the latter estimates can be substantially improved when weighted appropriately by the known distribution of these population characteristics. This is accomplished through two stages of ratio estimates as follows: a. First-stage ratio estimate. In the CPS, a portion of the 614 sample areas are chosen to represent other areas not in the sample; the remainder of the sample areas represent only themselves. The first-stage ratio estimation procedure was designed to reduce the portion of the variance resulting from requiring sample areas to represent nonsample areas. Therefore, this procedure is not applied to sample areas which represent only themselves. The procedure is performed at two geographic levels: First, by the four census regions (Northeast, North Central, South and West), and secondly, for each of the 46 States which contains nonsample areas. The procedure corrects for the differences that existed at the time of the 1970 census between the distribution by race and residence of the population in the sample areas and the known race-residence distribution in the portions of the census region or State represented by these areas. The regional adjustment is performed by 173 metropolitan-non metropolitan residence and race, while the State adjustment is done by urban-rural status and race. and components to the nearest thousand. Differences, however, are insignificant. Reliability of the estimates b. Second-stage ratio estimate. In this stage, the sample proportion in the categories described below are adjusted to the distribution of independent current estimates of the population in the same categories. The second-stage ratio estimate is done in order to increase the reliability of the estimates and is done in three steps. In the first step, the sample estimates are adjusted within each State and the District of Columbia to an independent control for the population 16 years and over for the State. The second step involves "nonwhite" persons only, and is an adjustment to independent estimates of 40-age-sex-race categories across the whole Nation. (The race categories used are black and other minority races.) The third adjustment is applied to all sample persons and is a weighting to nationwide independent population estimates within 68 age-sex-race groups. The entire second-stage ratio estimation procedure is iterated six times, each time beginning at the weights developed the previous time. This iteration ensures that the sample estimates both of State population and of national age-sex-race categories, will be virtually equal to the independent population estimates. The independent controls by State for the civilian noninstitutional population 16 years and over are an arithmetic extrapolation of the trend in the growth of this segment of the population from the April 1, 1970 census through the latest available July 1 estimate, adjusted as a last step to a current estimate of the U.S. population of this group. State estimates by age for July 1 are published annually in Current Population Reports, Series P-25. For a description of the methodology used in developing the State total, see Report 640 of that series. Descriptions of the age estimates methodology are available on request from the Chief of the Population Division, U.S. Bureau of the Census, Washington, D.C 20233. Prior to January 1974, the independent national controls used for the age-sex-race groups in both the second and third steps of the second-stage ratio estimation procedure were prepared by carrying forward the most recent census data (1970) after taking account of subsequent aging of the population, births, deaths, and migration between the United States and other countries. Beginning in 1974, the "inflation-deflation" method of deriving independent population controls was introduced into the CPS estimation procedures. These independent controls are prepared by inflating the most recent census counts to include the estimated net census undercount by age, sex, and race, aging this population forward to each subsequent month and later age by adding births and net migration, and subtracting deaths. These post-censal population estimates are then "deflated" to census level to reflect the pattern of net undercount in the most recent census by age, sex, and race. The actual percent change over time in the population in any age group is preserved. 3. Composite estimate procedure. In deriving statistics for a given month, a composite estimating procedure is used which takes account of net changes from the previous month for continuing parts of the sample (75 percent) as well as the sample results for the current month. Almost all estimates of month-to-month change are improved by this procedure, and most estimates of levels are also improved, but to a lesser extent. 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 174 There are two types of errors possible in an estimate based on a sample survey—sampling and nonsampling. The standard errors provided primarily indicate the magnitude of the sampling error. They also partially measure the effect of some nonsampling errors in response and enumeration but do not measure any systematic biases in the data. Nonsampling errors. The full extent of nonsampling error is unknown, but special studies have been conducted to qualify some sources of nonsampling error in the CPS as discussed below. The effect of nonsampling error should be small on estimates of relative change, such as month-to-month change. Estimates of monthly levels would be more severely affected by the nonsampling error. Nonsampling errors in surveys can be attributed to many sources, e.g., inability to obtain information about all cases in the sample, definitional difficulties, differences in the interpretation of questions, inability or unwillingness of respondents to provide correct information, inability to recall information, errors made in collection such as in recording or coding the data, errors made in 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 have been 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 and some of the other results may be found in the Current Population Survey Reeinterview Program, January 1961 through December 1966, Technical Paper No. 19. U.S. Department of Commerce, Bureau of the Census. The effects of some components of nonsampling error in the CPS data can be examined as a result of the rotation plan used for the sample, since the level of the estimates vary by rotation group, A description of these effects appears in the article "The Effects of Rotation Group Bias on Estimates from Panel Surveys," by Barbara A. Bailer, Journal of the American Statistical Association, Volume 70, No. 349, March 1975. Undercoverage in the CPS results from missed housing units and missed persons within sample households. Overall undercoverage, as compared to the level of the decennial census, is about 5 percent. It is known that the CPS undercoverage varies with age, sex, and race. Generally, undercoverage is larger for males than for females and larger for black and other races than for whites. Ratio estimation to independent age-sex-race population controls, as described previously, partially corrects for the biases due to survey undercoverage. However, biases exist in the estimates to the extent that missed persons in missed households or missed persons in interviewed households have different characteristics than interviewed persons in the same age-sex-race group. Further, the independent population controls used have not been adjusted for undercoverage in the 1970 census, which was estimated at 2.5 percent of the population, with differentials by age, sex, and race similar to those observed in the CPS. Additional information on nonsampiing error in the CPS appear in An Error Profile: Employment as Measured by the Current Population Survey, by Camilla Brooks and Barbara Bailar, Statistical Policy Working Paper 3, U.S. Department of Commerce, Office of Federal Statistical Policy and Standards; in the paper "The Current Population Survey: An Overview/' by Marvin Thompson and Gary Shapiro, Annals of Economic and Social Measurement, Vol. 2, No. 2, April 1973; and in The Current Population Survey, Design and Methodology, Technical Paper No. 40, U.S. Department of Commerce, Bureau of the Census. This last document includes a comprehensive and up-to-date discussion of various sources of errors, and describes attempts to measure them in the CPS. Sampling error. The standard error is primarily a measure of sampling variability, that is, of the variation that occurs by chance because a sample rather than the entire population is surveyed. The sample estimate and its estimated standard error enables one to construct confidence intervals, ranges that would include the average of all possible samples with a known probability. For example, if all possible samples were selected, each of these surveyed under essentially the same general conditions and using the same sample design, and an estimate and its estimated error were calculated from each sample, then: 1. Approximately 68 percent of the intervals from the one standard error or below the estimate to one standard error above the estimate would include the average result of all possible sample. error for estimated changes from one month to the next is more closely related to the monthly level for the characteristic than to the size of the specific month-to-month change itself. Thus, in order to use the generalized standard errors for month-to-month change as given in the tables of standard errors, it is necessary to obtain the monthly estimate for the characteristic. It should be noted that the tables of standard errors for month-to-month change apply only to estimates of change between two consecutive months. Estimates of change for nonconsecutive months are subject to higher standard errors. Table I contains factors for use with tables C, E, G and H to compute approximate standard errors, as described below, for levels, labor force participation rates and percentages as pertaining to year-to-year change of monthly estimates, quarterly averages, changes in quarterly averages, yearly averages, and changes in yearly averages. Note, that standard errors for changes in quarterly and yearly estimates apply only to consecutive quarters and years. For years prior to 1967, the standard errors must be adjusted due to the differences in the sample size. For years prior to 1956, the standard errors should be multiplied by 1.50 and for the 1956-1966 period they should be multiplied by 1.22. Table A. Standard errors of major employment status categories (In thousands) Standard error of— Employment status, sex, age, and race 2. Approximately 90 percent of the intervals from 1.6 standard errors below the estimate to 1.6 standard errors above the estimate would include the average of all possible samples. 3. Approximately 95 percent of the intervals from 2 standard errors below the estimate to 2 standard errors above the estimate would include the average result of all possible samples. In order to derive standard errors that would be applicable to a large number of estimates and could be prepared at a moderate cost, a number of approximations were required. First, the standard errors in this report reflect the sample design and estimation procedure in effect prior to the expansion for annual average State estimates. Thus, these standard errors mav slightly overstate the standard errors applicable to the present design. Secondly, instead of computing an individual standard error for each estimate, generalized sets of standard errors were computed for various types of characteristics. This generalization yields more stable estimates of the standard errors. Consequently, the sets of standard errors provided give an indication of the order of magnitude of the standard error of an estimate rather than the precise standard error. Tables A and B show approximate standard errors for major employment status characteristics for both monthly estimates and for changes for consecutive months. These standard errors are applicable to the level of the estimates in recent months. Tables C through G provide generalized standard errors for monthly level and month-to-month change for estimated totals, unemployment rates, and percentages. Table H contains factors for use with table G for computing standard errors, as described below, for monthly level and month-to-month change for percentages. Standard errors for intermediate values not shown in the tables may be approximated by linear interpolation. The standard Total, 16 years and over: Civilian labor force Employed Unemployed Males, 20 years and over: Civilian labor force Employed Unemployed Females, 20 years and over: Civilian labor force Employed Unemployed Both sexes, 16-19 years: Civilian labor force Employed Unemployed Black and other, 16 years and over: Civilian labor force Employed Unemployed Males, 20 years and over: Civilian labor force Employed Unemployed Females, 20 years and over: Civilian labor force Employed Unemployed Both sexes, 16-19 years: Civilian labor force Employed Unemployed Monthly level Month-tomonth change (consecutive months only) 223 236 107 171 180 111 124 135 68 107 118 71 168 167 64 129 131 67 80 84 56 85 94 69 78 85 54 60 65 57 44 49 33 38 43 35 62 62 34 48 49 36 33 30 29 37 35 32 175 Standard errors for estimated totals. Tables C and D provide generalized standard errors for monthly totals and for month-tomonth change. The figures given in these tables are to be used for the characteristics as indicated,, Illustration. Assume that the tables showed that the number of persons working a specific number of hours was 12,000,000, an increase of 400,000 over the previous month. Linear interpolation in the second column of table C shows that the standard error on an estimate of 12,000,000 is about 150,000. The 68 percent confidence interval as shown by these data is from 11,850,000 to 12,150,000. Therefore, a conclusion that the average estimate derived from all possible samples lies within a range computed in this way would be correct for roughly 58 percent of all possible samples. Recall that the standard error of a month-to-month change is primarily dependent on the size of the monthly estimate. Thus, using linear interpolation in column one of table D the standard error on a month-to-month change of 400,000 when the monthly level is approximately 12,000,000 is about 111,000. Standard errors for rates and percentages. The reliability of an estimated unemployment rate or an estimated percentage, computed using sample data for both numerator and denominator, depends on both the size of the rate or percentage and the total upon which the rate or percentage is based. Estimated rates and percentages are relatively more reliable than the corresponding estimates of the numerator of the rates or percentages; this is particularly true for percentages of 50 percent or more. As a general rule, percentages are not published when the monthly base is less than 75,000 or the annual average base is less than 35,000. Tables E and F shows generalized standard errors for monthly level and month-to-month change for unemployment rates. Generalized standard errors for estimated monthly percentages and estimated month-to-month change in percentages can be obtained through the use of the standard errors in table G and the factors in table H. First obtain the standard error from table G for the specific percentage and base. The generalized standard error is then calculated by multiplying the standard error from table G by the appropriate factor from table H. When the numerator and denominator of the percentage are in different categories, use the factor indicated by the numerator of the percentage. 176 Illustration. For example, assume that the tables show that 3.6 percent of a total of 90,771,000 employed persons are employed in agriculture. First the standard error on an estimate of 3.6 percent with a base of 90,771,000 is obtained from table G (0.09 percent). The appropriate factor from table H for the numerator of the percentage, agriculture employment, is 1.26. The generalized standard error on the estimated 3.6 percent is then approximately 0.09 x 1.26 = 0.1 percent. Standard errors for year-to-year change of monthly estimates, quarterly averages, changes in quarterly averages, yearly averages and changes in yearly averages. The approximate standard errors of levels, rates and percentage involving year-to-year change of monthly estimates, quarterly averages, changes in quarterly averages, yearly averages and changes in yearly averages may be obtained by using table 1 in conjunction with the other tables. Standard errors for estimates of change are more closely related to the level of the estimate than to the size of the specific change. Thus to obtain the standard error of an estimate of an average level, rate or percentage, or an estimate of a change in level, rate or percentage it is first necessary to find the appropriate estimate of level. For an estimate of an average level, rate or percentage, find the standard error of this estimate. For an estimate of change in level, rate or percentage, find the standard error of the average of the two estimates affecting the change. Then, after computing the standard error by treating these estimates as monthly estimates and using the procedures above, multiply this result by a suitable factor from table I to obtain the approximate standard error for the average or change. Illustration. For an example, suppose that one is interested in the year-to-year change of a monthly unemployment rate. Let us assume that the tables show that for a certain month the unemployment rate is 6.9 percent based on a total of 95,676,000 in the civilian labor force, and that a year prior to this the unemployment rate was 6.1 percent based on a total of 94,254,000 in the civilian labor force for the month. First, the standard error on the average of the two estimates, 6.5 percent with a base of 94,965,000, is obtained from table E (0.11 percent). The appropriate factor then from table I is 1.40. The approximate standard error on the change of 0.8 percent is then given by 0.11x1.40= 0.15 percent. Table B.

Federal-State cooperation Under cooperative arrangements with State agencies, the respondent fills out a single employment or labor turnover reporting form, which is then used for national, State, and area estimates. This eliminates duplicate reporting on the part of respondents, and together with the use of identical techniques at the national and State levels, insures maximum comparability of estimates. State agencies mail the forms to the establishments and examine the returns for consistency, accuracy, and completeness. The States use the information to prepare State and area series and then send the establishment data to the BLS (Washington Office) for use in preparing the national series. Shuttle schedules Two types of data collection schedules are used: Form BLS 790—Report on Employment, Payroll, and Hours; and Form 1219—Monthly Report on Labor Turnover. The collection agency returns the schedule to the respondent each month so that the next month's data can be entered on the space allotted for that month. This "shuttle" procedure assures maximum comparability and accuracy of reporting, since the respondent can see the figures that have been reported for previous months. Form BLS 790 provides for entry of data on the number of fulland part-time workers on the payrolls of nonagricultural establishments and, for most industries, payroll and hours of production and related workers or nonsupervisory workers for the pay period which includes the 12th of the month. Form DL 1219 provides for the collection of information on the total number of accessions and separations, by type, during the calendar month. CONCEPTS Industrial classification Establishments reporting on Form BLS 790 and Form DL 1219 are classified into industries on the basis of their principal product or activity determined from information on annual sales volume. This information is collected each year on a supplement to the monthly 790 or 1219 report. For an establishment making more than one product or engaging in more than one activity, the entire employment of the establishment is included under the industry indicated by the principal product or activity. All data on employment, hours, earnings, and labor turnover for the Nation and for most States and areas are classified in accordance with the 1972 Standard Industrial Classification Manual (SICM), Office of Management and Budget. Industry employment Employment data, except those for the Federal Government, refer to persons on establishment payrolls who received pay for any part of the pay period which includes the 12th of the month. For Federal Government establishments, employment figures represent the number of persons who occupied positions on the last day of the calendar month. Intermittent workers are counted if they performed any service during the month. The data exclude proprietors, the self-employed, unpaid volunteer or family workers, farm workers, and domestic workers in households. Salaried officers of corporations are included. Government employment covers only civilian employees, military personnel are excluded. Employees of the Central Intelligence and National Security Agencies are also excluded. Persons on establishment payrolls who are on paid sick leave (when pay is received directly from the firm), on paid holiday or paid vacation, or who-work during a part of the pay period 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 laid off, on leave without pay, or on strike for the entire period or who are hired but have not been paid 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 manufacturing and mining, construction workers in construction, and nonsupervisory employees in the remaining private nonagricultural components. For Federal Government, hours and earnings relate to all employees, both supervisory and nonsupervisory. Terms are defined below. When the pay period reported is longer than 1 week, figures are reduced to a weekly basis. Production and related workers include working supervisors and all nonsupervisory workers (including group leaders and trainees) engaged in fabricating, processing, assembling, inspection, receiving, storage, handling, packing, warehousing, shipping, maintenance, repair, janitorial and guard services, product development, auxiliary production for plants own use (e.g., power plant), and recordkeeping and other services closely associated with the above production operations. Construction workers include the following employees in the construction division: Working supervisors, qualified craft workers, mechanics, apprentices, laborers, etc., whether working at the site of construction or in shops or yards, at jobs (such as precutting and preassembling) ordinarily performed by members of the construction trades. Nonsupervisory employees include employees (not above the working supervisory 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 covers the payroll for full- and part-time production, construction, or nonsupervisory workers who received pay for any part of the pay period which includes the 12th of the month. The payroll is reported before deductions of any kind, e.g., for old-age and unemployment insurance, group insurance, withholding tax, bonds or union dues; also included is pay for overtime, holidays, vacations, and sick leave paid directly by the firm. Bonuses (unless earned and paid regularly each pay period), other pay not earned in the pay period reported (e.g., retroactive pay), tips, and the value of free rent, fuel, meals, or other payment in kind are excluded. "Fringe benefits" (such as health and other types of insurance, contributions to retirement, etc. paid by the employer) are also excluded. Hours cover the hours paid for, during the pay period which 181 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 cover hours worked by production or related workers for which overtime premiums were paid because the hours were in excess of the number of hours of either the straight-time workday or the workweek during the pay period which includes the 12th of the month. Weekend and holiday hours are included only if overtime premiums were paid. Hours for which only shift differential, hazard, incentive, or other similar types of premiums were paid are excluded. Gross average hourly and weekly earnings. Average hourly earnings are on a "gross" basis. 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 workers' 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 to the worker for a stated period of time; rates are the amount stipulated for a given unit of work or time. The earnings series does not measure the level of total labor costs on the part of the employer since the following are excluded: Irregular bonuses, retroactive items, payments of various welfare benefits, payroll taxes paid by employers, and earnings for those employees not covered under the production worker, construction worker, or nonsupervisory employee definitions. Gross average weekly earnings are derived by multiplying average weekly hours by average hourly earnings. Therefore, weekly earnings are affected not only by changes in gross average hourly earnings but also by changes in the length of the workweek. Monthly variations in such factors as proportion of part-time workers, stoppages for varying reasons, labor turnover during the survey period, and absenteeism for which employees are not paid may cause the average workweek to fluctuate. Long-term trends of gross average weekly earnings can be affected by structural changes in the makeup of the work force. 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. Average weekly hours. The workweek information relates to the average hours for which pay was received and is different from standard or scheduled hours. Such factors as unpaid absenteeism, labor turnover, part-time work, and stoppages cause average weekly hours to be lower than scheduled hours of work for an establishment. Group averages further reflect changes in the workweek of component industries. Average overtime hours. The overtime hours represent that portion of the gross average weekly hours which 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 his holiday pay plus straight-time pay for hours worked that day, no overtime hours would be reported. Since overtime hours are premium hours by definition, gross weekly hours and overtime hours do not necessarily move in the same direction from month-to-month; for example, overtime premiums may be paid for hours in excess of the straight-time workday although less than a full week is worked. Diverse trends at the 182 industry-group level also may be caused by a marked change in hours for a component industry where little or no overtime was worked in both the previous and current months. In addition, such factors as stoppages, absenteeism, and labor turnover may not have the same influence on overtime hours as on gross hours. Hours and earnings for total private nonagricultural industries. The series covers all nonagricultural industry divisions except government. The principal source of payroll data is Form BLS 790. Secondary source material such as the Bureau's Employment and Wages, County Business Patterns of the Bureau of the Census, and additional supporting information such as The Hospital Guide, Part I I , of the American Hospital Association and special studies by the National Council of Churches supplement data for certain industry groups within the services division. For a technical description of this series, see the article, "Hours and Earnings for Workers in Private Nonagricultural Industries/' published in the May 1967 issue of Employment and Earnings and Monthly Report on the Labor Force. Reprints are available upon request. Railroads hours and earnings. The figures for class I railroads (excluding switching and terminal companies) are based on monthly data summarized in the M-300 report of the Interstate Commerce Commission and relate to all employees except executives, officials, and staff assistants (ICC group I) who received pay during the month. Gross average hourly earnings are computed by dividing total compensation by total hours paid for. Average weekly hours are obtained by dividing the total number of hours paid for, reduced to a weekly basis, by the number of employees, as defined above. Gross average weekly earnings are derived by multiplying average weekly hours by average hourly earnings. Spendable average weekly earnings. Spendable average weekly earnings in current dollars are obtained by deducting estimated Federal social security and income taxes from average weekly earnings. The amount of income tax liability depends on the number of dependents supported by the worker, the worker's marital status, and level of gross income. To reflect these variables, the Bureau calculates two sets of spendable earnings series based on the assumptions that the worker earned the gross average weekly earnings and was taxed at the rates applicable to either (1) a worker with no dependents, or (2) a married worker with three dependents who files a joint return. The computations are based on gross average weekly earnings for all production or nonsupervisory workers in the industry division excluding other income and income earned by other family members. The series reflects the spendable earnings of only those workers, with no dependents or three dependents, whose gross weekly pay approximates the average earnings indicated for all production and nonsupervisory workers. It does not reflect, for example, the average earnings of all married workers with three dependents; such workers, in fact have higher gross average earnings than workers with no dependents. Since part-time as well as full-time workers are included, and since the proportion of part-time workers has been rising, the series understates the increase in earnings for full-time workers. As noted, "fringe benefits" are not included in the earnings. For a more complete discussion of the uses and limitations of these series, see the article by Paul M. Schwab, "Two Measures of Purchasing Power Contrasted," in the Monthly Labor Review for April 1971. Reprints of this article are available upon request from the Bureau of Labor Statistics. "Real" earnings or earnings in constant dollars, are computed by dividing the earnings averages for the current month by the Consumer Price Index for Urban Wage Earners and Clerical Workers (CPI-W), and then multiplying by 100. "Real" earnings for months prior to January 1978 are deflated by the unrevised CPI-W, whereas those for January 1978 forward are deflated by the revised CPI-W. This is done for gross average weekly earnings and for spendable average weekly earnings. The level of earnings is thus adjusted for changes in the purchasing power of the dollar since the base period (1967). Average hourly earnings excluding overtime. Average hourly earnings excluding overtime premium pay are computed by dividing the total production-worker payroll for the industry group by the sum of total production-worker hours and one-half of total overtime hours. Prior to January 1956, these data were based on the application of adjustment factors to gross average hourly earnings (as described in the Monthly Labor Review, May 1950, pp. 537-540). Both methods eliminate only the earnings due to overtime paid for at 1 V2 times the straight-time rates. No adjustment is made for other premium payment provisions, such as holiday work, late-shift work, and overtime rates other than time and one-half. Indexes of aggregate weekly payrolls and hours. The indexes of aggregate weekly payrolls and hours are prepared by dividing the current month's aggregate by the monthly average for the 1967 period. The hour aggregates are the product of average weekly hours and production-worker or nonsupervisory-worker employment, and the payroll aggregates are the product of hour aggregates and average hourly earnings. At all higher levels of aggregation, hour and payroll aggregates are the sum of the component aggregates. Indexes of diffusion of changes in number of employees on nonagricultural payrolls. These indexes measure the percent of industries which posted increases in employment over the specified time span. The indexes are calculated from 172 unpublished seasonally adjusted employment series (two-digit nonmanufacturing industries and three-digit manufacturing industries) covering all nonagricultural payroll employment in the private sector. A more detailed discussion of these indexes appears in "Introduction of Diffusion Indexes," in the December 1974 issue of Employment and Earnings. Labor turnover Labor turnover is the gross movement of wage and salary workers into and out of employed status with respect to individual establishments. This movement, which relates to a calendar month, is divided into two broad types: Accessions (new hires and rehires) and separations (terminations of employment initiated by either employer or employee). Each type of action is cumulated for a calendar month and expressed as a rate per 100 employees. The date relate to all employees, whether full- or part-time, permanent or temporary, including executive, office, sales, other salaried personnel, and production workers. Transfers to another establishment of the company are included, beginning with January 1959. Accessions are the total number of permanent and temporary additions to the employment roll, including both new and rehired employees. New hires are temporary or permanent additions to the employment roll of persons who have never before been employed in the establishment (except employees transferring from another establishment of the same company) or of former employees not recalled by the employer. Recalls are permanent or temporary additions to the employment roll of persons specifically recalled to a job in the same establishment of the company following a period of layoff lasting more than 7 consecutive days. (The collection of recalls, as a separate item, began January 1976.) Other accessions are all additions to the employment roll which are not classified as new hires or recalls. These include transfers from other establishments of the company and former employees returning from military leave or other absences without pay who have been counted as separations. Data on other accessions are not published separately but are included in total accessions. Separations are terminations of employment during the calendar month and are classified according to cause: Quits, layoffs, and other separations are defined as follows: Quits are terminations of employment initiated by employees, failure to report after being hired (if counted as new hires previously), and unauthorized absences, if on the last day of the month the person has been absent more than 7 consecutive calendar days. Layoffs are suspensions without pay lasting or expected to last more than 7 consecutive calendar days, initiated by the employer without prejudice to the worker. Other separations, which are not published separately but are included in total separations, are terminations of employment because of discharge, permanent disability, death, retirement, transfers to another establishment of the company, and entrance into the Armed Forces for a period expected to last more than 30 consecutive calendar days. Relationship of labor turnover to employment series Month-to-month changes in total employment in manufacturing industries reflected by labor turnover rates are not comparable with the changes shown in the Bureau's employment series for the following reasons: (1) Accessions and separations are computed for the entire calendar month; the employment reports refer to the pay period which includes the 12th of the month; and (2) employees on strike are not counted as turnover actions although such employees are excluded from the employment estimates if the work stoppage extends through the report period. ESTIMATING METHODS The principal features of the procedure used to estimate employment for the industry statistics are (1) the use of the "link relative" technique, which is a form of ratio estimation, (2) periodic adjustment of employment levels to new benchmarks, and (3) the use of size and regional stratification. The "link relative" technique From a sample composed of establishments reporting for both the previous and current months, the ratio of current month employment to that of the previous month is computed. This is called a "link relative." The estimates of employment (all employees, including production and nonproduction workers together) for the current month are obtained by multiplying the estimates for the previous month by these "link relatives." In addition, small bias correction factors are applied to selected employment estimates each month. The size of the bias correction factors is determined from past experience. Other features of the general procedures are described in table J. Summary of methods for 183 Table J.

Table K. Comparison of nonagricultural employment benchmarks based on 1972 SIC and estimates based on 1967 SIC for 1977 Size and regional stratification A number of industries are stratified by size of establishment and/or by region, and the stratified production- or nonsupervisory worker-data are used to weight the hours and earnings into broader industry groupings,, Accordingly, the basic estimating cell for an employment, hours, or earnings series, as the term is used in the summary of computational methods, may be a whole industry or a size stratum, a region stratum, or a size stratum of a region within an industry. Benchmark adjustments Employment estimates are compared periodically with comprehensive counts of employment which provide "benchmarks" for the various nonagricultural industries, and appropriate adjustments are made as indicated. The industry estimates are currently projected from March 1977 levels. Normally, benchmark adjustments are made annually. The primary sources of benchmark information are employment data, by industry, compiled quarterly by State agencies from reports of establishments covered under State unemployment insurance laws. These tabulations cover nearly nine-tenths of the total nonagricultural employment in the United States. Benchmark data for the residual are obtained from the records of the Social Security Administration, the Interstate Commerce Commission, and a number of other agencies in private industry or government. The estimates for the benchmark month are compared with new benchmark levels, industry by industry. If revisions are necessary, the monthly series of estimates between benchmark periods are adjusted at levels between the new benchmark and the preceding one, and the new benchmark for each industry is then carried forward progressively to the current month by use of the sample trends. Thus, under this procedure, the benchmark is used to establish the level of employment; the sample is used to measure the month-tomonth changes in the level. A comparison of the actual amounts of revisions made at the time of the March 1977 benchmark adjustment is shown in table K.

To provide users of the data with a convenient reference source for the revised data, the BLS publishes, as soon as possible after each benchmark revision, a summary volume of employment, hours, earnings, and labor turnover statistics, entitled Employment and Earnings, United States. THE SAMPLE Design The sampling plan used in the current employment statistics program is known as "sampling proportionate to average size of 185 establishment." This design is an optimum allocation design among strata since the sampling variance is proportional to the average size of establishments. Under this type of design, large establishments fall into the sample with certainty. The size of the sample for the various industries is determined empirically on the basis of experience and of cost considerations. In a manufacturing industry in which a high proportion of total employment is concentrated in relatively few establishments, a large percentage of total employment is included in the sample. Consequently, the sample design for such industries provides for a complete census of the large establishments with only a few chosen from among the smaller establishments or none at all if the concentration of employment is great enough. On the other hand, in an industry in which a large proportion of total employment is in small establishments, the sample design calls for inclusion of all large establishments and also for a substantial number of the small ones. Many industries in the trade and services divisions fall into this category. To keep the sample to a size which can be handled by available resources, it is necessary to design samples for these industries with a smaller proportion of universe employment than is the case for most manufacturing industries. Since individual establishmentsUn these nonmanufacturing divisions generally show less fluctuations from regular cyclical or seasonal patterns than do establishments in manufacturing industries, these smaller samples (in terms of employment) generally produce reliable estimates. In the context of the BLS employment and labor turnover statistics programs, with their emphasis on producing timely data at minimum cost, a sample must be obtained which will provide coverage of a sufficiently large segment of the universe to provide reasonably reliable estimates that can be published promptly and regularly. The present sample meets these specifications for most industries. With its use, the BLS is able to produce preliminary estimates each month for many industries and for many geographic levels within a few weeks after reports are mailed by respondents, and at a somewhat later date, statistics in considerably greater industrial detail. Coverage The BLS sample of establishment employment and payrolls is the largest monthly sampling operation in the field of social statistics. Table L shows the approximate proportion of total employment in each industry division covered by the group of establishments furnishing monthly employment data. The coverage for individual industries within the division may vary from the proportions shown. Table M shows the approximate coverage, in terms of employment, of the labor turnover sample. Table L.

Wholesale and retail trade Finance, insurance, and real estate Services Government: Federal (Civil Service Commission) State and local Since a few establishments do not report payroll and hour information, hours and earnings estimates may be based on a slightly smaller sample than employment estimates. National estimates of Federal employment are provided to the BLS by the Civil Service Commission. State and area estimates are based on a sample of 3,700 reports covering about 55 percent of employment in Federal establishments. Table M. Approximate size and coverage of BLS labor turnover sample, March 1977 Employees Industry Number reported Percent of total Reliability of the employment estimates Although the relatively large size of the BLS establishment sample assures a high degree of accuracy, the estimates derived from it may differ from the figures that would be obtained if it were possible to take a complete census using the same schedules and procedures. As discussed under the previous section, a "link relative" technique is used to estimate employment. This requires the use of the previous month's estimate as the base in computing the current month's estimate. Thus, small sampling and response errors may cumulate over several months. To remove this accumulated error, the estimates are usually adjusted annually to new benchmarks. In addition to taking account of sampling and response errors, the benchmark revision adjusts the estimates for changes in the industrial classification of individual establishments (resulting from changes in their product which are not reflected in the levels of estimates until the data are adjusted to new benchmarks). In fact, at the more detailed industry levels, particularly within manufacturing, changes in classification are the major cause of benchmark adjustments. Another cause of differences arises from improvements in the quality of the benchmark data.

Detailed descriptions of individual benchmark revisions are available from the Bureau upon request. The hours and earnings estimates for cells are not subject to benchmark revisions, although the broader groupings may be affected slightly by changes in employment weights. The hours and earnings estimates, however, are subject to sampling errors which may be expressed as relative errors of the estimates. (A relative error is a standard error expressed as a percent of the estimate.) Relative errors (based on the 1967 SIC) for major industries are presented in table N and for individual industries with the specified number of employees in table O. The chances are about 2 out of 3 that the hours and earnings estimates from the sample would differ by a smaller percentage than the relative error from the averages that would have been obtained from a complete census. One measure of the reliability of the employment estimates for individual industries is the root-mean-square error (RMSE). The measure is the standard deviation adjusted for the bias in estimates V (Standard Deviation)2 + (Bias)2 RMSE- If the bias is small, the chances are about 2 out of 3 that an estimate from the sample would differ from its benchmark by less than the root-mean-square error. The chances are about 19 out of 20 that the difference would be less than twice the root-mean-square error. Approximations of the root-mean-square errors (based on the experience of the last 6 years and the 1967 SIC) of differences between final estimates and benchmarks are presented in table O. For the two most recent months, estimates of employment, hours, and earnings are preliminary and are so footnoted in the tables. These figures are based on less than the total sample and are revised when all the reports in the sample have been received. Table P presents root-mean-square errors of the amounts of revisions that may be expected between the preliminary and final levels of employment and preliminary and final month-to-month changes. Revisions of preliminary hours and earnings estimates are normally not greater than .1 of an hour for weekly hours and 1 cent for hourly earnings. Table O.

STATISTICS FOR STATES A N D AREAS State and area employment, hours, earnings, and labor turnover data are collected and prepared by State agencies in cooperation with BLS, The area statistics relate to metropolitan areas. Definitions for ail 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. Additional industry detail may be obtained from the State agencies listed on the inside back cover of each issue. These statistics are based on the same establishment reports used by BLS for preparing national estimates. For employment, the sum ot the State figures may differ slightly from the equivalent official U.S. totals on a national basis, because some States have more recent benchmarks than others and because of the effects of differing industrial and geographic stratification. 187 For the States and the areas shown in the B and C sections of this periodical, all the annual average data for the detailed industry statistics currently published by each cooperating State agency are presented (from the earliest date of availability of each series) in a summary volume published annually by the BLS. PRODUCTIVITY DATA Tables C-10, C-11, and C-12 are compiled by the Bureau of Labor Statistics from establishment data and from estimates of compensation and Gross National Product supplied by the U.S. Department of Commerce and the Federal Reserve Board. Definition Hours of wage and salary workers in nonagricultural establishments refer to hours paid for all employees—production workers, nonsupervisory workers, and salaried workers. Output is the constant dollar market value of final goods and services produced in a given period. Indexes of output per hour of labor input, or labor productivity, measure changes in the volume of goods and services produced per unit of labor. Compensation per hour includes wages and salaries of employees plus employers' contributions for social insurance and private bene- fit plans. The data also include an estimate of wages, salaries, and supplementary payment for the self-employed, except for nonfinancial corporations, in which there are no self-employed. Real compensation per hour is compensation per hour adjusted to eliminate the effect of changes in the Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers (CPI-U). Unit labor costs measure the labor compensation cost required to produce one unit of output and are derived by dividing compensation per hour by output per hour. Unit nonlabor payments include profits, depreciation, interest, and indirect taxes per unit of output. They are computed by subtracting compensation of all persons from the current dollar gross national product and dividing by output, in these tables, unit nonlabor costs contain all the components of unit nonlabor payments except unit profits. Unit profits include corporate profits and inventory valuation adjustments per unit of output. The implicit price deflator is derived by dividing the current dollar estimate of gross product by the constant dollar estimate, making the deflator, in effect, a price index for gross product of the sector reported. Notes on the data For the private business sector and the nonfarm business sector, these indexes relate to the Gross Domestic Product less households and institutions, owner-occupied housing, and statistical discrepancy. For the nonfinancial corporate sector, the indexes refer to the Gross Domestic Product of nonfinancial corporate business. Manufacturing data have been revised to reflect revisions in the Federal Reserve Board Index of Industrial Production. Output data are supplied by the Bureau of Economic Analysis, U.S. Department of Commerce, and the Federal Reserve Board. Quarterly measures have been adjusted by the Bureau of Labor Statistics to annual estimates of output (gross product originating) from the Bureau of Economic Analysis. Compensation and hour data are from the Bureau of Economic Analysis and the Bureau of Labor Statistics. State and area unemployment data (E table) FEDERAL-STATE COOPERATIVE PROGRAM Labor force and unemployment estimates for States, labor market areas (LMA's), and other areas covered under Federal assistance programs are developed by State employment security agencies under a Federal-State cooperative program. The local unemployment estimates which are derived from standardized procedures developed by BLS are the basis for determining eligibility of an area for benefits under Federal programs such as the Comprehensive Employment and Training Act, the Public Work Employment Act and the Public Works and Economic Development Act. ESTIMATING METHODS Labor force and unemployment in 10 large States: New York, California, Illinois, Ohio, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Michigan, Texas, Massachusetts, and Florida; and two areas: Los AngelesLong Beach metropolitan area and New York City, are sufficiently 188 reliable to be used directly from the CPS. For a description of the CPS concepts see "Explanatory note A, Household Data," above. Monthly employment and unemployment estimates in the remaining 40 States and 205 labor market areas are prepared in several stagesc 1. Preliminary estimate—Employment: The total employment estimate is based primarily on data from the survey of establishments which produces an estimate of payroll employment. This place-ofwork estimate must be adjusted to refer to place of residence as used in the CPS« Factors for adjusting from place of work to place of residence have been developed for the major categories of employment by class of worker and industry on the basis of employment relationships which existed at the time of the 1970 Decennial Census. These factors are applied to the payroll employment estimates for the current period to obtain adjusted employment estimates. 2. Preliminary estimate-Unemployment: In the current month, the estimate of unemployment is an aggregate of the estimates for each of three building block categories: (1) Persons who were previously employed in industries covered by State Ul laws; (2) those previously employed in industries not covered by these laws; and (3) those who were either entering the labor force of the first time or reentering after a period of separation. This is referred to below, as the Ul-based estimate. An estimate for those previously employed in covered industries is derived from a count of current unemployment insurance claimants, plus estimates of claimants whose benefits have been exhausted, those persons disqualified from receiving benefits for nonmonetary reasons (because they quit, were discharged for cause, etc., but would otherwise have been eligible), and persons who either filed claims late, or not at all. The estimate of those previously employed in industries not covered by Ul is derived by applying to the employment estimate for each non-covered industry or class of worker subgroup in the State, the ratio of covered unemployment to covered employment, weighted by factors reflecting national historical relationships. For the third category, new entrants and reentrants into the labor force, a composite estimate is developed from equations that relate the total entrants into the labor force to the experienced unemployed and the experienced labor force. For each month, the estimate of entrants into the labor force is a function of: (a) the month of the year; (b) the level of the experienced unemployed; (c) the level of the experienced labor force; and (d) proportion of the working age population that is considered "youth." The composite estimate of total entrants is defined as: U=A(X+E) + BX, Where U=total entrant unemployment E=total employment X=total experienced unemployment A,B=synthetic factors incorporating seasonal variation and an assumed relationship between the proportion of youths in the working population and the historical relationship of entrants to the experienced unemployed (B factor) or the experienced labor force (A factor). 3. Correction factors for employment and unemployment are then applied at the State level to the Ul-based estimates obtained above for each of the 40 States and the District of Columbia. These correction factors are based on the ratio of the CPS to the Ul-based estimates for the six month period ending in the current month (e.g. a 6-month moving average). 4. Substate adjustment for additivity. Independent estimates of employment and unemployment are prepared both for the State (obtained directly from the CPS in the 10 large States or by the Ul-based method in the remaining States), and labor market areas (LMA's) within the State. The total labor force included in the LMA's exhaust the geographic boundaries of the State. A proportional adjustment is applied to all substate LMA estimates to ensure that the substate estimates of employment and unemployment add to the independent State totals. In California and New York, which also have substate areas taken directly from the CPS, the additivity adjustment for the remaining areas is applied to the State total minus the direct CPS area. 5. Benchmark correction procedures. Once each year monthly estimates prepared by State employment security agencies using Ul-based estimating procedures are adjusted, or benchmarked, by BLS to the annual average CPS estimates for the 40 States for which monthly CPS estimates are not available. This adjustment is necessary because the State-prepared estimates are not as reliable as the CPS annual averages due to differences in State Ul laws, the structural limitations of the Ul-based estimating method, and errors in the Ul data. The benchmarked estimates are produced in three stages. First, the monthly Ul-based estimates are adjusted by the ratio of the CPS to the Ul-based annual averages. Second, the difference between the ratio of annual averages for two consecutive years is wedged into the monthly estimates in order to minimize the disturbance to the original series. Finally, the second-stage estimates are forced into agreement with CPS annual averages. In the 10 States which use CPS estimates monthly, no benchmark correction is required, as the average of the 12 monthly State CPS estimates will equal the CPS annual averages. Seasonal adjustment Many economic statistics reflect a regularly recurring seasonal movement which can be estimated on the basis of past experience. By eliminating that part of the change which can be ascribed to usual seasonal variation, it is possible to observe the cyclical and other nonseasonal movements in the series. However, in evaluating deviations from the seasonal pattern-that is, changes in a seasonally adjusted series—it is important to note that seasonal adjustment is merely an approximation based on past experience. Seasonally adjusted estimates have a broader margin of possible error than the original data on which they are based, since they are subject not only to sampling and other errors, but in addition, are affected by the uncertainties of the seasonal adjustment process itself. Seasonally adjusted series for selected labor force and establishment data are published regularly in Employment and Earnings. The seasonal adjustment programs used for these series are an adaptation of the standard ratio-to-moving average method. They provide for "moving" adjustment factors to take account of changing seasonal patterns. A detailed description of the methods is given in the two publications, BLS Seasonal Factor Method (1966) and X-11 Variant of the Census Method II Seasonal Adjustment Program, Technical Paper No. 15, Bureau of the Census (1967). Data for the household series are seasonally adjusted utilizing the Census Bureau's X-11 Method. Each January, seasonal adjustment factors for unemployment and other labor force series are revised to take into account data from the previous year. In January 1976, in addition to the routine annual revisions, the Bureau introduced a modification in the procedure for seasonally 189 adjusting teenage unemployment and those few other unemployment series (e.g., unemployed new entrants) of which teenagers are the exclusive or major part. In January 1978, modifications were introduced in the procedure for seasonally adjusting teenage nonagricultural employment, a number of other teenage employment series, and adult male unemployment. All civilian 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 three major labor force componentsagricultural e m p l o y m e n t , nonagricultural e m p l o y m e n t and unemployment—data for four sex-age groups (males and females under and over 20 years of age) are separately adjusted for seasonal variation and are then added to derive seasonally adjusted total figures. In order to provide seasonally adjusted total employment and civilian labor force estimates, the appropriate series are aggregated. The unemployment rate for all civilian workers is derived by dividing the estimate for total unemployment (the sum of 4 seasonally adjusted sex-age components) by the civilian labor force (the sum of 12 seasonally adjusted sex-age components). Revised seasonally adjusted series for major components of the labor force based on data through December 1978, new seasonal factors for the 12 major components of the civilian labor force, and a description of the seasonal adjustment methodology are published in the February 1979 Employment and Earnings. Many additional series, which are either components or aggregates of the series presented, are available from the BLS upon request. For establishment data, seasonally adjusted series for all employees, women employees, production workers, hours, and earnings, are computed using the BLS Seasonal Factor Method. Seasonal adjustment factors are directly applied to the component levels. Seasonally adjusted totals for most of these series are then obtained by taking a weighted average of the seasonally adjusted d|ata for the component series. Seasonally adjusted average weekly earnings are the product of seasonally adjusted average hourly earnings and seasonally adjusted weekly hours. Average weekly earnings in constant dollars, seasonally adjusted, are obtained by dividing average weekly earnings, seasonally adjusted, by the seasonally adjusted revised Consumer Price Index for Urban Wage Earners and Clerical Workers (revised CPI-W), and multiplying by 100. Indexes of aggregate weekly hours, seasonally adjusted, are obtained by multiplying average weekly hours, seasonally adjusted, by production or nonsupervisory workers, seasonally adjusted, and dividing by the 1967 base. For total private, total goods-producing, total private service-producing, trade, manufacturing, and durable and nondurable goods industries, the indexes of aggregate weekly hours, seasonally adjusted, are obtained by summing the aggregate weekly hours, seasonally adjusted, for the appropriate component industries and dividing by the 1967 base. The seasonally adjusted establishment data for Federal Government are based on a series which excludes the Christmas temporary help employed by the Postal Service in December. The employment of these workers constitutes the only significant seasonal change in Federal Government employment during the winter months. Furthermore, the volume of such employment may change substantially from year to year because of administrative decisions by the Postal Service. Hence, it was considered desirable to exclude this group from the data upon which the seasonlly adjusted series is based. For labor turnover rates, seasonal adjustment factors are applied directly to the component series. These series are then aggregated to obtain total levels (total accessions and total separations). These factors are derived by the Census X-11 Method using the trading day option. As a result, these series are adjusted for the number of times each day of the week occurs in a given month, as well as for the month of the year. The revised seasonally adjusted series for the establishment data reflect experience through May 1978. Seasonal factors to be used for current adjustment appear in the October 1978 issue of Employment and Earnings.
