Editors' Note
This issue of Employment and Earnings introduces an entirely revised series of
charts, presenting labor force activity over time. The charts reflect a number of
improvements which the Bureau hopes will stimulate increased interest in our
graphic presentation. The charts are more comprehensive in scope, in that they
cover more aspects of the manpower field than heretofore, and include time
series previously not published in this volume. In addition, the charts should
prove to be more useful for economic analysis, both on a current and long-term
basis. The editors welcome all comments, including suggestions for further improvement and expansion of the chart series.

Employment and Unemployment Developments,
August 1970
The Nation's unemployment rate was essentially unchanged in August, while employment
declined on a seasonally adjusted basis.
The overall unemployment rate was 5.1 percent in August, compared with 5.0 percent in
July. After rising sharply between December
1969 and May 1970, the unemployment rate has
remained at about the same level. Jobless rates
for most major groups in the labor force showed
little or no change in August, although the rate
for teenagers moved up sharply over the month.
Nonagricultural payroll employment declined
by 90,000 in August, seasonally adjusted, the
fourth monthly reduction in the last 5 months. The
drop occurred almost entirely in manufacturing
and construction; employment in the two industries has fallen by 1.1 million over the past year.
Unemployment
The number of unemployed workers totaled
4.2 million in August, down 300,000 from July.
The reduction was about in line with the usual
July-August pattern, and thus after seasonal
adjustment unemployment was not significantly
changed from the July level.
Although unemployment rates for most major
labor force groups were little changed in August,
the jobless rate for teenagers increased significantly, from 13.9 to 15.9 percent; most of this
rise occurred among white girls. This brought
the teenage rate to its highest point since April
1965.
For adult women (20 years and over), the unemployment rate edged down in August, from
5.0 to 4.8 percent. The jobless rates for all
adult men (3.7 percent) and married men (2.8
percent) were essentially unchanged over the
month. However, both rates have moved up since
late 1969 and were at or near their highest levels
in 5 years.
The unemployment rate for all full-time workers, at 4.7 percent, was unchanged in August.
The rate for part-time workers edged up from
7.4 to 8.0 percent, the highest level since the
series began in 1963. The August rise in the
part-time rate reflected increased joblessness
among teenagers. Over the year, however, the
rate for full-time workers has increased much
more rapidly than for part-time workers.
Jobless rates for both white (4.8 percent) and
Negro workers (8.4 percent) were essentially
unchanged in August. As a result, the ratio of
Negro-to-white joblessness remained below the
2-to-l pattern that has prevailed for many years.
August marked the tenth month out of the last
12 in which this has occurred.
Among the occupational groups, there was a
substantial decline in the jobless rate for whitecollar workers. After reaching its highest level
in nearly 10 years in July, the rate dropped in
August from 3.1 to 2.7 percent. Within this broad
group, declines occurred among professional,
managerial, and clerical workers, while the rate
for sales workers was unchanged.
By way of contrast, jobless rates for bluecollar workers continued to rise in August, moving from 6.6 to 7.0 percent, due primarily to
increased joblessness among operatives, whose
rate rose to 7.9 percent. The rate for nonfarm
laborers, at 10.2 percent, remained at the 10percent level for the third straight month. Both
rates were at 5-year highs.
The jobless rate for workers who were last
employed in construction moved up to 12.2 percent in August, the fourth consecutive month in
which this rate has exceeded 10 percent. Unemployment rates were about unchanged over the
month in most other major industry divisions.
The unemployment rate for workers covered
by State unemployment insurance programs rose
to 3.7 percent, a return to the June level following a drop in July. The August 1970 rate compares
with a rate of 2.1 percent last August.
The number of persons unemployed 15 weeks
or more reached 735,000 in August, nearly double
the level of last August. However, the average
(mean) duration of unemployment fell from 9.3
to 8.8 weeks (seasonally adjusted) as a result
of the increased short-term joblessness among
teenagers. Since August 1969, the average duration has risen by 1 week.
Over the year, total unemployment has increased by 1.4 million—735,000 a d u l t men,
340,000 adult women, and 270,000 teenagers.
Nearly two-thirds of the increase was among
persons who lost their last jobs.
Employment in contract construction fell by
40,000 in August, seasonally adjusted. The decline would have been larger except for the net
return to work of about 20,000 strikers. Over
the year, employment in contract construction
was down by 160,000, or about the same rate
of decline as in manufacturing.
Payroll employment advanced in August in
services and government by 25,000 each (seasonally adjusted). These gains were partly offset by declines in other service-producing
industries—transportation and public utilities
(15,000), trade (10,000), and finance, insurance,
and real estate (10,000). Until April of this
year, employment increases in the service sector of the economy had been adequate to counter
the sharp losses in goods-producing industries.
Beginning in April, however, employment in the
service sector has shown little or no growth.
Industry Payroll Employment
Hours of Work
Nonagricultural payroll employment, which
usually rises between July and August, remained
virtually unchanged this August at 70.0 million.
As a result, after seasonal adjustment, payroll
employment was down 90,000 over the month, the
fourth decline in the last 5 months. Large employment drops in manufacturing and construction and small declines in several other industries more than offset moderate increases in
services and State and local government. The
August reduction brought nonfarm payroll employment down to about the same level as last
August.
The largest over-the-month decline occurred
in manufacturing, where employment fell by
75,000 (seasonally adjusted). Since last fall,
factory employment has moved steadily downward and by August was 945,000 (or 4.6 percent)
below last August. Over-the-month declines in
manufacturing occurred in both the durable and
nondurable goods industries. A 45,000 drop in
durables took place largely in transportation
equipment, electrical equipment, machinery, and
instruments. In nondurable goods manufacturing, the August drop mainly reflected employment reductions in apparel and leather.
The workweek for all rank-and-file workers
on private nonfarm payrolls held steady in August at 37.3 hours, seasonally adjusted, remaining 0.2 hour above the May 1970 low.
The average workweek for manufacturing
workers fell 0.2 hour in August to 39.9 hours
(seasonally adjusted), after rising sharply in
July (as revised). These fluctuations partly r e flected the effects of the automobile model
changeover. The factory workweek in August,
however, was only slightly higher than the 9year lows of May and June and was 0.7 hour
below year-ago levels.
In the durable goods industries, the average
workweek and overtime hours each edged down
0.1 hour in August. Weekly hours, however, were
still 0.3 hour above their 1970 low reached in
May; overtime hours remained in the 3.0-3.2
hours range of the last 7 months.
In nondurable goods, the average workweek
fell 0.2 hour over the month, a return to the June
level. Overtime also edged down 0.1 hour to its
lowest level since June 1964.
Average hourly earnings of production and
nonsupervisory workers on private payrolls
edged up 1 cent in August to $3.24. Compared
with a year ago, average hourly earnings were
up 18 cents, or 5.9 percent.
Average weekly earnings increased by 70
cents over the month to $122.15, as declines in
manufacturing and services were countered by
gains in the other major industry divisions. Compared with August 1969, weekly earnings increased by $5.56, or 4.8 percent.
Over the year ending in July 1970, average
weekly earnings also rose by 4.8 percent; after
adjustment for consumer price changes, however, earnings were down by 1.0 percent.
Civilian Labor Force and Employment
The civilian labor force declined in August to
84.1 million. The drop was in line with usual
July-August movements, however, and after seasonal adjustment the labor force was little
changed from July and was at about the same
level as in the spring of this year. Over the year,
the civilian labor force has risen by 1.6 million,
with nearly three-fifths of the rise occurring
among adult full-time workers, about evenly
divided among men and women. The labor force
growth among men reflected, in part, the entry
into the c i v i l i a n job market of returning
veterans.
Total employment, at 79.9 million, declined
slightly more than it usually does in August and
after adjustment for seasonal factors inched
down over the month by about 200,000. Compared with August 1969, total employment was up
by only 250,000, with the increase occurring
largely among part-time workers. Among fulltime workers, employment gains for adult
women were offset by declines among adult men
and teenagers.

Beginning with the October issue, results of
the Department of Labor's job vacancy survey
will be published monthly in Employment and
Earnings. Current job vacancy information has
long been sought by government officials, Congressional committees, economists, and others.
In response to this interest, the Department of
Labor conducted a series of experimental surveys during the period from 1964 to 1968. These
surveys were designed to determine the feasibility of collecting job vacancy data, establish the
methods of collection, and test the reliability of
the data.
The job vacancy survey in its present form
began early in 1969. Along with data collection
the survey methods have been developed further
and tested over the past year, and the survey now
will yield monthly job vacancy statistics.
This program is a cooperative Federal-State
venture under which State employment security
agencies collect data from a representative sample of employers for use in the preparation of
both national and local summaries. The Department of Labor provides guidance and support to
the State agencies through the Bureau of Labor
Statistics and the Manpower Administration.
The information developed through the job
vacancy program is intended to provide the
basis for estimating manpower demand: the
total number of jobs employers are trying to fill,
the industries in which the demand exists, the
occupations currently in demand, and the location of the vacant jobs. With this information and
related data on unemployment, analysts should
be better able to evaluate the extent to which job
market problems may be due to the inability of
the market to absorb all those who want jobs and
the extent to which problems arise from occupational and geographic imbalances between available jobs and workers. Job vacancies can be
expected to exist even in areas with high unemployment because of such occupational, skill
level, and geographic obstacles to matching jobs
and workers. For the purposes of this program,
a current job vacancy is defined as a job that is
immediately available for filling, and for which
the firm is actively trying to find or recruit a
worker from outside the firm.
Presently, national data and local data for 25
selected metropolitan areas are available for the
manufacturing sector, which accounts for more
than a quarter of all nonfarm jobs. Statistical
tables to be published monthly in Employment
and Earnings now include national data by industry for both total and long-term vacancies
(those unfilled for 30 days or more). Summary
data will be published for the areas involved
in the survey. State and area data will also include estimates for industries other than manufacturing as they become available, and estimates of vacancies by occupation, which are
collected quarterly. In addition, State agencies
will issue periodic releases on job vacancies in
the areas covered by the program. 1/
Future releases will provide job vacancy data
for manufacturing establishments in 50 metropolitan areas and for the total nonagricultural
sector in 26 of the largest areas. For 17 of
these areas, quarterly occupational information
will also be available. Eventually the survey will
be extended to a broader national coverage and
to additional areas.
The job vacancy data are not seasonally adjusted. In order to seasonally adjust a series,
at least 3 years of data are n e c e s s a r y .
Therefore, seasonally adjusted job vacancy data
will not be available until early 1972.
*Of the Office of Manpower and Employment
Statistics, Bureau of Labor Statistics.
1/ Manufacturing job vacancy data for more
detailed industry lines and data for earlier time
periods for the areas involved in the survey are
available on request from the cooperating State
employment security agencies listed on the inside back cover of this publication.
Many State employment service agencies have
already found job vacancy information to be useful in their programs, particularly when the information is available by occupation. In most of
these agencies, the job vacancy data have been
used primarily to review existing manpower
training programs and to determine what new
training programs were needed. Many of these
State agencies also use the vacancy data in their
job market information programs. In several instances, they have found that job vacancy data
are a valuable supplement to data already being
provided to State advisory boards concerning the
State's manpower needs. As the job vacancy program expands and as the data become available
to employers, manpower agencies, schools,
labor organizations, and other interested groups,
additional uses of the information for helping
both job seekers and employers undoubtedly will
be made.
Some economists believe that by analyzing
job vacancy data a better understanding of the
relationship between low levels of unemployment and high rates of increases in wages is
possible. Low levels of unemployment maybe
associated with a high rate of increase in wages;
this relationship, in part, would reflect a high
demand for labor. Analysis of job vacancy data
possibly could reveal ways to modify the process
and to achieve low levels of unemployment without excessive inflationary pressures. Job vacancy data will also provide additional evidence
of trends and may prove to be a sensitive indicator of economic developments.
Major Findings
The first job vacancy report, which covers
data from April 1969 through June 1970, shows
that:
* There were 123,000 job vacancies at the
end of June 1970 in the Nation's manufacturing
industries.
* More than 1 out of 3 jobs had remained
vacant for 30 days or more (long-term vacancies).
* The job vacancy rate for manufacturing r e mained at a level close to 1.4 percent from April
1969 through September 1969, declined to 0.8
percent in February 1970, remained at that level
through May, and declined again in June to 0.6
percent. (The vacancy rate is the number of
vacancies as a percent of the number of jobs
available—employment plus vacancies.)
* The job vacancy rate in 25 metropolitan
areas averaged 0.6 percent in June, and ranged
from 0.2 percent in Detroit, St. Louis, and Jersey
City to 1.5 percent in Greensboro-WinstonSalem-High Point.
* An occupational breakdown for 12 metropolitan areas shows that in May 1970, the most
recent quarterly data available, about 30 percent
of the vacancies were for "white-collar" jobs
and 70 percent were for "blue-collar" and
service jobs—roughly similar to the occupational
composition of manufacturing employment nationally.
Additonal Findings
The decline in manufacturing vacancies in
recent months was considerably sharper in
the durable goods industries—steel, automobiles, heavy machinery, etc.—than in the nondurable goods industries, probably because of
the effect of defense cutbacks and the economic
slowdown on the former. In 1969, job vacancies
and job vacancy rates remained relatively stable
until September, then declined quite sharply.
Long-term job vacancies in manufacturing,
those vacant for 30 days or more, followed about
the same over-the-year pattern as total job
vacancies. Long-term vacancies have ranged
from about 40 to 50 percent of all vacancies.
Job vacancy data by occupation for manufacturing establishments in 12 metropolitan areas
are available for May 1970. In these 12 areas,
which encompassed 15 percent of the Nation's
manufacturing employment and manufacturing
vacancies in May, almost 25 percent of the available vacancies were for benchwork occupations
which include assemblers, inspectors, and r e pairmen. Occupations in the machine trades and
structural work occupations (welders, transportation equipment assemblers, electricians, etc.)
together made up an additional 30 percent of the
vacancies. Professional, technical, managerial,
clerical, and sales jobs were about 30 percent.
These percentages are similar to the rates of
employment in the manufacturing industries
nationwide.
Relation to other Labor
Market Information
The limited amount of data now available on
job vacancies is beginning to show some relationships with other job market information. The
decline in vacancies in the latter part of 1969
and early 1970 occurred as unemployment rose.
This inverse relationship is generally to be expected since demand should be lower and vacant
jobs easier to fill when employment is declining
and unemployment is rising. Over longer periods, persistently large differences between vacancies and unemployment may reflect structural
problems in matching the occupations and locations of available jobs and workers.
Comparisions of unemployment and job vacancies are subject to numerous qualifications.
The unemployment figure is more inclusive;
laid-off workers, for example, are included in
the unemployment count, but job openings to be
filled by the recall of previously laid-off work-
e r s are excluded. (However, the inverse relationship observed between job vacancies and unemployment is still observed, but at a somewhat
lower level, when laid-off workers are excluded
from the count of the unemployed.) A qualification to comparison of totals by industry is that
the available jobs may require different skills
than those possessed by unemployed workers and
may be in different areas from those with large
numbers of unemployed workers. Job vacancy
data are collected at the end of the month while
unemployment is a mid-month figure.
Available labor turnover data also provide
several measures that would be expected to relate
to the vacancy data. The need to replace workers
who quit, for example, creates job vacancies,
and quits have been found to be positively related
to job vacancies. On the other hand, an employer
would not be expected to lay off large numbers
of employees and simultaneously seek to hire
many new workers (although he may be laying
off workers in some occupations while trying to
hire workers in others). Job vacancies at the
end of each month should be postively related
to new hires in the following month—i.e., the
employment of workers who were not called back
from layoff or previously employed by the firm.
The job vacancy data tend to conform to this
expectation.
CAUTIONARY NOTE
Job vacancy data are compiled from a sample of reporting establishments and may differ
from the figures that would have been obtained if it were possible to take a complete
census using the same questionnaries and procedures. Small differences in job vacancy
rates between metropolitan areas, industries and occupations, therefore, may not be
significant.
Caution should be exercised in using these data to form conclusions in the absence of
other supporting facts. As with any new statistical program, there is not yet enough experience as to the relationships between job vacancy data and employment, unemployment, labor turnover, and other economic data under varying economic conditions to
warrant firm conclusions.
The job vacancy data derived from the job vacancy survey differ from the unfilled
job openings information compiled by the State Employment Security Agencies from
their administrative records. The latter series reflect only the job openings listed with
the Public Employment Service, and include all nonagricultural sectors as well as jobs not
immediately available for filling.
Technical Description
The statistics for the first release of the job
vacancy survey were compiled from monthly
questionnaries submitted by a sample of establishments to cooperating State employment security agencies. These questionnaries, Form DL
1219—Monthly Report on Job Openings and Labor
Turnover, are of the "shuttle" type, with space
for each month of the calendar year. The collecting State agency returns the questionnaire to the
respondent each month so that the next month's
data can be entered.
with public or private employment agencies and
school placement offices; notification to labor
unions and professional organizations; "help
wanted" advertising (newspaper, posted notices,
etc.); recruitment programs; and interview and
selection of applicants.
Long-Term Job Vacancies
The reporting establishment is asked to indicate the number of current job vacancies which
have continued unfilled for 30 days or more.
Concepts
Job Vacancy Rate
Current Job Vacancies
The reporting establishments submit job vacancy information as of the close of the last
business day (or nearest possible day) of the
reference month. A current job vacancy is defined as a job that is immediately available for
filling, and for which the firm is actively trying
to find or recruit a worker from outside the
firm.
Included are openings for all kinds of positions, classifications and employment, full-time,
part-time, permanent, temporary, and seasonal.
Excluded are jobs to be filled by recall from
layoff, transfer, promotion, demotion, or return
from paid or unpaid leave; job unoccupied because of labor-management disputes; job openings for which "new" workers were already hired
and scheduled to start work later; and openings
with future starting dates, which are requested
as a separate item.
"Actively trying to find or recruit" means
that the establishment is engaged in efforts to
fill the job vacancies by means of orders listed
The job vacancy rate is computed by dividing
the number of job vacancies by the sum of employment plus vacancies, and multiplying that
quotient by 100.
E mployment
Employment data reported on Form DL 1219
refer to persons on establishment payrolls who
received pay for any part of the pay period
which included the 12th of the month. The employment figures are used as weighting factors
in estimating job vacancies.
Industrial, Occupational and
Area Classification
The classification of establishments by industry and by Standard Metropolitan Statistical Area
are the same as the labor turnover and payroll
employment statistics published regularly in
Employment and Earnings. The classifications
of vacancies by occupation are made in accordance with those established in the Dictionary of
Occupational Titles, Third Edition, U.S. Department of Labor, 1965.

NOTE: Averages presented in this table have been computed using data collected by the U.S. Civil Service Commission from all agencies of the executive branch cf the Federal Government;
the data cover both salaried workers and hourly paid wage-board employees. Since these averages relate to hours and earnings of all workers, both supervisory and nonsupervisory, they are not
comparable to similar data presented in table C-2 which relate only to production or nonsupervisory workers.

Technical Note
Additional information concerning the preparation
of the labor force, employment, hours and earnings,
and labor turnover series—concepts and scope,
survey methods, and limitations—is contained in
technical notes for each of these s e r i e s , available
f r o m the Bureau of Labor Statistics f r e e of charge.
INTRODUCTION
Relation between the household and payroll series
The statistics in this periodical a r e compiled from
three major sources: (1) household interviews, (2) payroll reports f r o m employers, and (3) administrative
statistics of unemployment insurance systems.
The household and payroll data supplement one
another, each providing significant types of information
that the other cannot suitably supply. Population characteristics, for example, a r e readily obtained only f r o m
the household survey whereas detailed industrial c l a s s i fications can be reliably derived only f r o m establishment reports.
Data based on household interviews a r e obtained from
a sample survey of the population 16 years of age and
over. The survey is conducted each month by the Bureau
of the Census for the Bureau of Labor Statistics and provides comprehensive data on the labor force, the employed and the unemployed, including such characteristics
as age, sex, color, marital status, occupations, hours of
work, and duration of unemployment. The survey also
provides data on the characteristics and past work experience of those not in the labor force. The information
is collected by trained interviewers from a sample of
about 50,000 households, representing 449 a r e a s in 863
counties and independent cities, with coverage in 50 States
and the District of Columbia. The data collected a r e based
on the activity or status reported for the calendar week
including the 12th of the month.
Data based on establishment pay roll re cords are compiled each month from mail questionnaires by the Bureau
of Labor Statistics, in cooperation with State agencies.
The payroll survey provides detailed industry information
on nonagricultural wage and salary employment, average weekly hours, average hourly and weekly earnings,
and labor turnover for the Nation, States, and metropolitan areas. The figures a r e based on payroll reports
from a sample of establishments employing about 30
million nonagriculture wage and salary workers. The
data relate to all workers, full- or part-time, who r e ceived pay during the payroll period which includes the
12th of the month.
Data based on administrative records of unemployment
insurance systems furnish a complete count of insured
unemployment among the two-thirds of the N a t i o n s
labor force covered by unemployment insurance programs. Weekly reports, by State, a r e issued on the
number of initial claims, the volume and rate of insured
unemployment under State unemployment insurance programs, and the volume under programs of unemployment
compensation for Federal employees, ex-servicemen,
and railroad workers. These statistics a r e published by
the Manpower Administration, U.S. Department of Labor,
in "Unemployment Insurance Claims."
Data from these two sources differ f r o m each other
because of differences in definition and coverage, sources
of information, methods of collection, and estimating
procedures. Sampling variability and response e r r o r s
are additional reasons for discrepancies. The major
factors which have a differential effect on levels and
trends of the two series a r e as follows:
Employment
Coverage. The household survey definition of employment comprises wage and salary workers (including
domestics and other private household workers), selfemployed 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 a r e counted
only once and a r e 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 a r e 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 a r e i n c l u d e d , but not
those on leave w i t h o u t pay for the entire payroll
period.
Hours of Work
The household survey measures hours actually worked
whereas the payroll survey measures hours paid for by
employers. In the household survey darta, all persons
with a job but not at work a r e 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 a r e included and assigned the
number of hours for which they were paid during the
reporting period.
Comparability of the household interview data
with other series
Unemployment insurance data. The unemployed total
f r o m 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 M a n p o w e r A d m i n i s t r a t i o n of the Department of
Labor, exclude persons who have exhausted their benefit
rights, new workers who have not earned rights to unemployment insurance, and persons losing jobs not
covered by unemployment insurance systems (agriculture, State and local government, domestic service,
self employment, unpaid family work, nonprofit organizations, and f i r m s below a minimum size).
In addition, the qualifications for drawing unemployment compensation differ from the definition of unemployment used in the household survey. For example,
persons with a job but not at work and persons working
only a few hours during the week a r e sometimes eligible
for unemployment compensation but a r e classified as
employed rather than unemployed in the household
survey.
Agricultural
of Agriculture.
employment estimates of the Department
The principal differences in coverage
a r e the inclusion of persons under 16 in the Statistical
Research Service (SRS) s e r i e s and the treatment of dual
jobholders who a r e counted more than once if they worked
on more than one farm during the reporting period.
There a r e also wide differences in sampling techniques
and collecting and estimating methods, which cannot be
readily measured in t e r m s of impact on differences in
level and trend of the two s e r i e s .
Comparability of the payroll employment data
with other series
Statistics on manufactures and business, Bureau of the
Census. BLS establishment statistics on employment
differ from employment counts derived by the Bureau
of the Census from its censuses or annual sample s u r veys of manufacturing establishments and the censuses
of business establishments. The major reasons for some
noncomparability a r e different treatment of business
units considered parts of an establishment, such as
central administrative offices and auxiliary units, the
industrial classification of establishments, and different
reporting patterns by multiunit companies. There a r e
also differences in the scope of the industries covered,
e.g., the Census of Business excludes contract construction, professional services, public utilities, and financial
establishments, whereas these a r e included in BLS
statistics.
County Business Patterns.
Data in County Business
Patterns, published jointly by the U.S. Departments of
Commerce and Health, Education, and Welfare, differ
from BLS establishment statistics in the treatment of
central administrative offices and auxiliary units. Differences may also a r i s e because of industrial classification and reporting practices. In addition, C BP excludes
interstate railroads and government, and coverage is
incomplete for some of the nonprofit activities.
Employment covered by State unemployment
insurance
programs. Not all nonagricultural wage and salary worke r s a r e covered by the unemployment insurance programs. All workers in certain activities, such as
interstate railroads, a r e excluded. In addition, small
f i r m s in covered industries a r e also excluded in 28
States (as of January 1, 1970). In general, these a r e
establishments with less than four employees.
Labor Force Data
C O L L E C T I O N 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 a r e compiled for the BLS by
the Bureau of the Census in its Current Population
Survey (CPS). A detailed description of this survey
appears in "Concepts and Methods Used in Manpower
Statistics from the Current Population Survey'* (BLS Re-
port 313). This report is a v a i l a b l e f r o m BLS on r e quest.
These monthly surveys of the population a r e conducted with a scientifically selected sample designed to
represent the civilian noninstitutional population 16 years
and over. Respondents a r e interviewed to obtain information about the employment status of each member of
the household 16 years of age and over. The inquiry
relates to activity or status during the calendar week,
Sunday through Saturday, which includes the 12th of the
month. This is known as the survey week. Actual field
interviewing is conducted in the following week.
Inmates of institutions and persons under 16 years
of age a r e not covered in the regular monthly enumerations and a r e excluded f r o m the population and labor
force statistics shown in this r e p o r t . Data on members
of the Armed F o r c e s , who a r e included as part of the
categories "total noninstitutional population" and "total
labor f o r c e , " a r e obtained f r o m the Department of Defense.
Each month, 50,000 occupied units a r e designated for
interview. About 2,250 of these households a r e visited
but interviews a r e not obtained because the occupants
a r e not found at home after repeated calls or a r e unavailable for other reasons. This r e p r e s e n t s a noninterview r a t e for the survey of about 4.5 percent. In addition to the 50,000 occupied units* there a r e 8,500 sample
units in an a verage mo nth which a r e visited but found to be
vacant or otherwise not to be enumerated. P a r t of the
sample is changed each month. The rotation plan provides
for three-fourths of the sample to be common f r o m one
month to the next, and one-half to be common with the
same month a year ago.
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 f a r m , o r who worked
15 hours or more as unpaid workers in an e n t e r p r i s e
operated by a member of the family, and (b) all those
who were not working but who had jobs or businesses
f r o m 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 a r e counted in the job at which they
worked the greatest number of hours during the survey
week.
Included in the total a r e employed citizens of f o r eign countries, temporarily in the United States, who a r e
not living on the p r e m i s e s of an Embassy.
Excluded a r e 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 s i m i l a r 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 a r e
those who did not work at all, were available for work,
and (a) were waiting to be called back to a job f r o m 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 r e p r e s e n t s the length of
time (through the current survey week) during which p e r sons classified as unemployed had been continuously looking for work. For persons on layoff, duration of unemployment r e p r e s e n t s the number of full weeks since the
termination of their most recent employment. A period of
2 weeks or more during which a person was employed or
ceased looking for work is considered to break the continuity of the present period of seeking work. Average
duration is an arithmetic mean computed f r o m a d i s t r i bution by single weeks of unemployment.
Unemployed persons by reasons for unemployment
a r e divided into four m a j o r groups. (1) Job l o s e r s a r e
persons whose employment ended involuntarily who i m mediately began looking for work and persons on layoff.
(2) Job leavers a r e persons who quit or otherwise t e r m i nated their employment voluntarily and immediately
began looking for work. (3) Reentrants a r e p e r s o n s who
previously worked at a full-time job lasting 2 weeks or
longer but who were out of the labor force p r i o r to beginning to look for work. (4) New entrants a r e persons
who never worked at a full-time job lasting 2 weeks or
longer.
The civilian labor force comprises the total of all
civilians classified as employed or unemployed in a c cordance with the c r i t e r i a described above. The "total
labor f o r c e " also includes m e m b e r s of the Armed F o r c e s
stationed either in the United States or abroad.
The unemployment
rate r e p r e s e n t s the number unemployed as a percent of the civilian labor f o r c e . This
m e a s u r e can also be computed for groups within the labor
f o r c e classified by sex, age, marital status, color, etc.
The job-loser, job-leaver, reentrant, and new entrant
r a t e s a r e each calculated as a percent of the civilian
labor force; the sum of the r a t e s f o r the four groups
thus equals the total unemployment r a t e .
Not in labor force includes all civilians 16 y e a r s
and over who a r e not . classified as employed or unemployed. These persons a r e f u r t h e r 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 r e t i r e d 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. P e r s o n s doing only incidental
unpaid family work (less than 15 hours) a r e also c l a s s i fied as not in the labor force.
For persons not in the labor force, data on previous
work experience, intentions to seek work again, d e s i r e for
a job at the time of interview, and reasons for not looking
for work a r e compiled on a quarterly basis. The detailed
questions for persons not in the labor force a r e asked
only in those households that a r e new entrants to the
sample and in those that a r e reentering the sample a f t e r
8 months' absence.
Occupation, industry, and class of worker f o r t h e
employed apply to the job held in the survey week. P e r -
sons with two or more jobs a r e classified in the job at
which they worked the greatest number of hours during
the survey week. The unemployed are classified according to their latest full-time civilian job lasting 2 weeks
or more. The occupation and industry groups used in
data derived from the CPS household interviews a r e
defined as in the 1960 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, "self-employed workers," and "unpaid family
workers." Wage and salary workers receive wages,
salary, commission, tips, or pay in kind from a private
employer or from a governmental unit. Self-employed
persons a r e those who work for profit or fees in their
own business, profession, or trade, or operate a farm.
Unpaid family workers a r e 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 a r e
related by blood or marriage.
Hours of work statistics relate to the actual number
of hours worked during the survey week. For example,
a person who normally works 40 hours a week but who
was off on the Veterans Day holiday would be reported
as working 32 hours even though he was paid for the
holiday.
For persons working in more than one job, the figures
relate to the number of hours worked in all jobs during
the week. However, all the hours a r e credited to the
major job.
Persons who worked 35 hours or more in the survey
week a r e designated as working "full time"; persons who
worked between 1 and 34 hours a r e designated as working
"part time." P a r t - t i m e workers a r e 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, r e pairs to plant or equipment, start or termination of job
during the week, and inability to find full-time work.
"Other reasons" include: Labor dispute, bad weather,
own illness, vacation, demands of home housework,
school, no desire for full-time work, and full-time
worker only during peak season. 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 but usually work full time.
Full-
and part-time
labor force.
The
full-time
labor
force consists of persons working on full-time schedules,
persons involuntarily working part time (because fulltime work is not available), and unemployed persons
seeking full-time jobs. The part-time labor force consists
of persons working part time voluntarily and unemployed
persons seeking part-time work. Persons with a job but
not at work during the survey week are classified ac-
cording to whether
time.
they
usually
work full or part
Labor force time lost is a measure of man-hours
lost to the economy through unemployment and involuntary part-time employment and is expressed
as a percent of potentially available man-hours.
It is computed by assuming: (1) that unemployed
persons looking for full-time w o r k lost an- average of 37.5 hours, (2) that those looking for p a r t 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 a c t u a l n u m b e r of hours they
worked.
ESTIMATING METHODS
Under the estimation methods used in the CPS, all of
the results for a given month become available simultaneously and a r e based on returns from the entire
panel of respondents. There a r e no subsequent adjustments to independent benchmark data on labor force,
employment, or unemployment. Therefore, revisions of
the historical data a r e not an inherent feature of this
statistical program.
1. Noninterview adjustment. The weights for all interviewed households a r e adjusted to the extent needed
to account for occupied sample households for which no
information was obtained because of absence, impassable
roads, refusals, or unavailability for other reasons. This
adjustment is made separately by groups of sample a r e a s
and, within these, for six groups—color (white and nonwhite) within the three residence categories (urban,
r u r a l nonfarm, and r u r a l farm). The proportion of sample
households not interviewed v a r i e s f r o m 4 to 6 percent
depending on weather, vacations, etc.
2. Ratio estimates. The distribution of the population selected for the sample may differ somewhat, by
chance, from that of the Nation as a whole, in such
characteristics as age, color, sex, and residence. Since
these population characteristics a r e closely correlated
with labor force participation and other principal m e a s urements 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.
T h i s is a procedure in which the sample proportions a r e weighted by
the known 1960 Census data on the color-residence
distribution of the population. This step takes into account the differences existing at the time of the 1960
Census between the color-residence distribution for the
Nation and for the sample a r e a s .
b. Second-stage ratio estimate.
In this step, the
sample proportions a r e weighted by independent current
estimates of the population by age, sex, and color.
These estimates a r e prepared by carrying forward the
most recent census data (1960) to take account of subsequent aging of the population, mortality, and migra-
tion between
tries.

3. Composite estimate procedure. In deriving s t a t i s tics for a given month, a composite estimating p r o c e dure is used which takes account of net changes f r o m
the previous month for continuing p a r t s of the sample
(75 percent) as well as the sample r e s u l t s f o r the c u r rent month. This procedure reduces the sampling v a r i a bility of mo nth-to-mo nth changes especially and of the
levels for most items also.

Rounding of Estimates
The sums of individual items may not always equal the

Reliability of the Estimates
Since the estimates a r e based on a sample, they may
differ f r o m the figures that would have been obtained if
it were possible to take a complete census using the
s a m e schedules and procedures.
The standard e r r o r is a m e a s u r e of sampling v a r i a bility, that is, the variations that might occur by chance
because only a sample of the population is surveyed.
The chances a r e about 2 out of 3 that an estimate f r o m
the sample would differ f r o m a complete census by l e s s
than the standard e r r o r . The chances a r e about 19 out of
20 that the difference would be l e s s than twice the

Table A shows the average standard e r r o r f o r the
m a j o r employment status categories, by sex, computed
f r o m data for past months. Estimates of change derived
f r o m the survey a r e also subject to sampling variability.
The standard e r r o r of change for consecutive months is
also shown in table A. The standard e r r o r s of level shown
in table A a r e acceptable approximations of the standard
e r r o r s of y e a r - t o - y e a r change.
The figures presented in table B a r e to be used for
other c h a r a c t e r i s t i c s and a r e approximations of the
standard e r r o r s of all such c h a r a c t e r i s t i c s . They should
be interpreted as providing an indication of the o r d e r of
magnitude of the standard e r r o r s r a t h e r than as the
p r e c i s e standard e r r o r for any specific item.
The standard e r r o r of the change in an item f r o m
one month to the next month is m o r e closely related to
the standard e r r o r of the monthly level for that item than
to the size of the specific mo nth-to-month change itself.
Thus, in o r d e r to use the approximations to the standard
e r r o r s of mo nth-to-month changes as presented in table

the monthly level of the item in table B, and then find the
standard e r r o r of the month-to-month change in table C
corresponding to this standard e r r o r of level. It should

be noted that table C applies to estimates of change between 2 consecutive months. For changes between the
current month and the same month last year, the standard e r r o r s of level shown in table B a r e acceptable
approximations.
Illustration:
Assume that the tables showed the total
number of persons working a specific number of hours
as 15,000,000, an increase of 500,000 over the previous
month. Linear interpolation in the f i r s t column of table B
shows that the standard e r r o r of 15,000,000 is about
133,000. Consequently, the chances a r e about 68 out of
100 that the sample estimate differs by less than 133,000
from the figure which would have been obtained from a
complete count of the number of persons working the
given number of hours. Using the 133,000 as the standard
e r r o r of the monthly level in table C, it may be seen
that the standard e r r o r of the 500,000 increase is about
126,000.

The reliability of an estimated percentage, computed
by using sample data for both numerator and denominator, depends upon both the size of the percentage and
the size of the total upon which the percentage is based.
Where the numerator is a subclass of the denominator,
estimated percentages are relatively more reliable than
the corresponding absolute estimates of the numerator
of the percentage, particularly if the percentage is large
(50 percent or greater). Table D shows the standard
e r r o r s for percentages derived from the survey. Linear
interpolation may be used for percentages and base figures not shown in table D.

Establishment Data
COLLECTION
Payroll reports provide current information on wage
and salary employment, hours, earnings, and labor turnover in nonagricultural establishments, by industry and
geographic location.
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 a r e a estimates. This eliminates duplicate r e porting 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 s e r i e s and then send the establishment
data to the BLS for use in preparing the national s e r i e s .
Shuttle Schedules
Two types of data collection schedules are used:
Form BLS 790-Monthly Report on Employment, Payroll,
and Hours; and Form DL 1219--Monthly Report on Job
Openings and Labor Turnover. These schedules are of
the " s h u t t l e " type, with space for each month of the
calendar year. The c o l l e c t i n g agency returns the
schedule to the respondent each month so that the next
month's data can be entered. This procedure assures
maximum comparability and accuracy of reporting, since
the respondent can see the figures he has reported for
previous months.
Form BLS 790 provides for entry of data on the number of full- and part-time workers on the payrolls of non-
agricultural establishments and, f o r most industries,
payroll and man-hours of production and related workers
o r nonsupervisory workers f o r the pay period which
includes the 12th of the month. Form DL 1219 provides
for the collection of information on the total number of
accessions and separations, by type, during the calendar
month, and was revised in January 1969 to provide for
the collection of job openings data as well.
CONCEPTS
Industrial Classification
Establishments reporting on F o r m BLS 790 and
F o r m DL 1219 are classified into industries on the
basis of their principal product or activity determined
from information on annual sales volume. This information is collected each year on a supplement to the
monthly 790 or 1219 report. For an establishment making
more than one product or engaging in more than one
activity, the entire employment of the establishment is
included under the industry indicated by the most important product or activity.
All national, State, and a r e a employment, hours,
earnings, and labor turnover s e r i e s a r e classified in
accordance with the Standard Industrial
Classification
Manual, Bureau of the Budget, 1967.
Industry Employment
Employment data, except those for the Federal Government, r e f e r 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 a r e counted if they
performed any service during the month.
The data exclude proprietors, the self-employed,
unpaid volunteer, or family workers, f a r m workers, and
domestic workers in households. Salaried officers of
corporations are included. Government employment cove r s only civilian employees; military personnel are
excluded.
Persons on establishment payrolls who a r e on paid
sick leave (when pay is received directly from the firm),
on paid holiday or paid vacation, or who work during a
part of the pay period and a r e unemployed or on strike
during the r e s t of the period, a r e counted as employed.
Not counted as employed a r e persons who a r e laid off,
on leave without pay, or on strike for the entire period,
or who a r e hired but have not reported to work during
the period.
Industry Hours and Earnings
Hours and earnings data are derived from reports of
payrolls and man-hours for production and related workers in manufacturing and mining, construction workers in
contract construction, and nonsupervisory employees in
the remaining nonagricultural components. For Federal
Government, hours and earnings relate to all employees,
both supervisory and nonsupervisory. T e r m s a r e defined
below. When the pay period reported is longer than 1
week, figures a r e reduced to a weekly basis.
Production and related workers i n c l u d e w o r k i n g
foremen and all nonsupervisory workers (including leadmen and trainees) engaged in fabricating, processing,
assembling, inspection, receiving, storage, handling,
packing, warehousing, shipping, maintenance, r e p a i r ,
janitorial and watchman services, product development,
auxiliary production for plant's own use (e.g., power
plant), and recordkeeping and other services closely
associated with the above production operations.
Construction workers include the following employees
in the contract construction division; working foremen,
journeymen, 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, repairmen, salespersons, operators,
d r i v e r s , physicians, lawyers, accountants, nurses, social
workers, r e s e a r c h aids, teachers, draftsmen, photogr a p h e r s , beauticians, musicians, restaurant workers,
custodial workers, attendants, linemen, laborers, janitors, watchmen, and similar occupational levels, and
other employees whose services a r e closely associated
with those of the employees listed.
Payroll covers the payroll for full- and p a r t - t i m e
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 f i r m . Bonuses (unless earned and paid regularly
each pay period), other pay not earned in pay period
reported (e.g., retroactive pay), tips, and the value of
f r e e rent, fuel, meals, or other payment in kind a r e
excluded. "Fringe benefits" (such as health and other
types of insurance, contributions to retirement, etc. paid
by the employer) are also excluded.
Man-hours cover man-hours paid for, during the pay
period which includes the 12th of the month, for production, construction, or nonsupervisory workers. The manhours include hours paid for holidays and vacations, and
for sick leave when pay is received directly from the
firm.
Overtime Aatzrs'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 d u r ing the pay period which includes the 12th of the month.
Weekend and holiday hours a r e 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,
reflecting not only changes in basic hourly and incentive
wage rates but also such variable factors as premium
pay for overtime and late-shift work and changes in
output of workers paid on an incentive plan. Shifts in the
volume of employment between relatively high-paid and
low-paid work and changes in workers' earnings in individual establishments also affect the general earnings
averages. Averages for groups and divisions further r e flect changes in average hourly earnings for individual
industries.
Averages of hourly earnings differ from wage rates.
Earnings are the actual return to the worker for a stated
period of time; rates are the amounts stipulated for a
given unit of work or time. The e a r n i n g s series
does not measure the level of total labor costs on
the part of the employer since the following a r e 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 nonsupervisoryemployee 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, part-time work,
stoppages for varying causes, labor turnover, and
absenteeism.
Average Weekly Hours
The worVweek information relates to the average
hours for which pay was received and is different from
standard or scheduled hours. Such factors as absenteeism, labor turnover, part—time work, and stoppages cause
average weekly hours to be lower than scheduled hours
of work for an establishment. Group averages further
reflect changes in the workweek of component industries.
Average Overtime Hours
The overtime hours represent that portion of the
gross average weekly hours which were in excess of
regular hours and for which overtime premiums were
paid. If an employee worked on a paid holiday at regular
rates, receiving as total' compensation his holiday pay
plus straight-time pay for hours worked that day, no
overtime hours would be reported.
Since overtime hours are premium hours by definition, gross weekly hours and overtime hours do not
necessarily move in the same direction from month-tomonth; for example, overtime premiums may be paid for
hours in excess of the straight-time workday although less
than a full week is worked. Diverse trends at the industry-group level also may be caused by a marked change
in gross hours for a component industry where little or no
overtime was worked in both the previous and current
months. In addition, such factors as stoppages, absenteeism, $nd labor turnover may not have the same influence on overtime hours as on gross hours.

data is Form BLS 790. Secondary source material such

service division.
For a technical description of this series, see the
article, "Hours and Earnings for Workers in Private
Nonagricultural Industries," published in the May 1967
issue of Employment and Earnings and Monthly Report
on the Labor Force.
Railroad Hours and Earnings
The figures for class I railroads (excluding switching and terminal companies) are based on monthly data
summarized in the M-300 report of the Interstate Commerce Commission and relate to all employees except
executives, officials, and staff assistants (ICC group I)
who received pay during the month. Gross average hourly
earnings are computed by dividing total compensation
by total hours paid for. Average weekly hours are obtained by dividing the total number of hours paid for, r e duced to a weekly basis, by the number of employees, as
defined above. Gross average weekly earnings a r e 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 gross weekly earnings.
The amount of income tax liability depends on the number
of dependents supported by the worker and his marital
status, as well as on the level of his gross income. To
reflect these variables, spendable earnings are computed
for a worker with no dependents and a married worker
with three dependents. The computations are based on
gross average weekly earnings for all production or nonsupervisory workers in the industry division excluding
other income and income earned by other family members.
"Real" earnings are computed by dividing the current
Consumer Price Index into the earnings averages for
the current month. The level of earnings is thus adjusted for changes in purchasing power since the base
period (1957-59).
Average Hourly Earnings Excluding Overtime
Average hourly earnings excluding overtime premium
pay are computed by dividing the total productionworker payroll for the industry group by the sum of total
production-worker man-hours and one-half of total overtime man-hours. P r i o r 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
l i times the straight-time r a t e s . 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 Man-Hours
The indexes of aggregate weekly payrolls and manhours a r e prepared by dividing the current month's
aggregate by the monthly average for the 1957-59 period.
The man-hour aggregates a r e the product of average
weekly hours and production-worker employment, and the
payroll aggregates a r e the product of gross average
weekly earnings and production-worker employment.
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 data relate to all employees,
whether full- or part-time, permanent or temporary,
including executive, office, sales, other salaried p e r sonnel, and production workers. Transfers to another
establishment of the company a r e included, beginning
with January 1959.
Accessions
a r e the total number of permanent and
temporary additions to the employment roll, including
both new and rehired employees.
New hires a r e temporary or permanent additions to
the employment roll of persons who have never before
been employed in the establishment (except employees
transferring from another establishment of the same
company) or of former employees not recalled by the
employer.
Other accessions,
which a r e not published separately
but a r e included in total accessions, are all additions to
the employment roll which a r e not classified as new
hires, including t r a n s f e r s from another establishment
of the company.
Separations a r e terminations of employment during
the calendar month and a r e classified according to cause:
Quits, layoffs, and other separations, are defined as
follows:
Quits a r e terminations of employment initiated by
employees, failure to report a f t e r being hired, and unauthorized absences, if on the last day of the month the
person has been absent more than 7 consecutive calendar
days.
Layoffs a r e suspensions without pay lasting or expected to last more than 7 consecutive calendar days,
initiated by the employer without prejudice to the worker.
0 ther separations, which a r e not published separately
but a r e included in total separations, a r e terminations
of employment because of discharge, permanent disability, death, retirement, t r a n s f e r s 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 to Employment Series
Month-to-month changes in total employment in manufacturing industries reflected by labor turnover rates
a r e not comparable with the changes shown in the Bureau f s
employment series for the following reasons: (1) Accessions and separations a r e computed for the entire calendar month; the employment reports r e f e r to the pay
period which includes the 12th of the month; and (2) e m ployees on strike a r e not counted as turnover actions
although such employees a r e excluded from the employment estimates if the work stoppage extends through the
report period.
E S T I M A T I N G METHODS
The principal features of the procedure used to estimate employment for the industry statistics a r e (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 " L i n k R e l a t i v e " 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 mont£
are obtained by multiplying the estimates for the p r e vious month by these "link relatives. In addition, small
bias correction factors a r e applied to selected employment estimates each month. The size of the bias correction factors is determined from past experience.
Other features of the general procedures are described
later in the table, Summary of Methods for Computing
Industry Statistics on Employment, Hours, Earnings, and
Labor Turnover. Further details are given in the technical notes—Chapter 2, Employment, Hours, and Earnings, and Chapter 3, Labor Turnover, reprinted f r o m
the Handbook of Methods for Surveys and Studies, BLS
Bulletin 1458—which are available upon request.
Size and Regional Stratification
A number of industries a r e stratified by size of e s tablishment and/or by region, and the stratified produc-
tion- or nonsupervisory-worker data a r e used to weight
the hours and earnings into broader industry groupings.
Accordingly, the basic estimating cell for an employment,
hours, or earnings s e r i e s , 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
THE SAMPLE
Employment estimates a r e compared periodically
with comprehensive counts of employment which provide
"benchmarks" for the various nonagricultural industries,
and appropriate adjustments a r e made as indicated. The
industry estimates a r e currently projected from March
1969 levels. Normally, benchmark adjustments a r e made
annually.
The primary sources of benchmark information a r e
employment data, by industry, compiled quarterly by
State agencies f r o m reports of establishments covered
under State unemployment insurance laws. These tabulations, covering three-fourths of the total nonagricultural
employment in the United States, a r e prepared under the
direction of the Manpower Administration. Benchmark
data for the residual are obtained from the records of the
Social Security Administration, the Interstate Commerce
Commission, and a number of other agencies in private
industry or government.
The estimates relating to the benchmark month a r e
compared with new benchmark levels, industry by industry. If revisions a r e necessary, the monthly s e r i e s
of estimates a r e adjusted between the new benchmark
and the preceding one, and the new benchmark for each
industry is then carried forward progressively to the
current month by use of the sample trends. Thus, under
this procedure, the benchmark is used to establish the
level of employment; the sample is used to measure the
month-to-month changes in the level. A comparison of
the actual amounts of revisions made in the last 3
benchmark years follows:

Data for all months since the last benchmark to which
the s e r i e s has been adjusted a r e subject to revision. To
provide u s e r s 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.
Design
The sampling plan used in the current employment
statistics program is known as "sampling proportionate
to average size of establishment." This design is an
optimum allocation design among strata since the sampling variance is proportional to the average size of
establishments. The universe of establishments is s t r a t i fied f i r s t by industry and then within each industry by
size of establishment in t e r m s of employment. For each
industry, the number of sample units is distributed
among the size class cells on the basis of average employment per establishment in each cell. In practice, this
is equivalent to distributing the predetermined total number of establishments required in the sample among the
cells on the basis of the ratio of employment in each cell
to total employment in the industry. Within each noncertainty stratum the sample members a r e selected at
random.
Under this type of design, large establishments fall
into the sample with certainty. The size of the samples
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 larger establishments with only a few
chosen from among the s m a l l e r 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 smaller ones. Many industries in the trade and
service divisions fall into this category. To keep the
sample to a size which can be handled by available
resources, it is necessary to accept samples in these
divisions with a smaller proportion of universe employment than is the case for most manufacturing industries.
Since individual establishments in these no m a n u f a c turing divisions generally show IQSS fluctuation f r o m
regular cyclical or seasonal patterns than establishments
in manufacturing industries, these smaller samples
(in t e r m s of employment) generally produce reliable
estimates.
In the context of the BLS employment and labor
turnover statistics programs, with their emphasis on p r o -
ducing 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 r e p o r t s a r e mailed by respondents, and at a
somewhat later date, statistics in considerably g r e a t e r
industrial detail.
Coverage
The BLS sample of establishment employment and
payrolls is the largest monthly sampling operation in the
field of social statistics. The table that follows 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 f r o m
the proportions shown.

Reliability of the Employment Estimates
The estimates derived from the establishment survey
may differ from the figures that would have been obtained
if it were possible to take a complete census using the
same schedules and procedures. The relatively large s i z e
of the BLS establishment sample assures a high degree
of accuracy. However, since the link relative technique
requires the use of the previous month's estimate as the
base in computing the current month's estimate, small
sampling and response errors may cumulate over several
months. To remove this accumulated error, the estimates
are adjusted annually to new benchmarks. In addition to
the sampling and response errors, the benchmark revision
adjusts the estimates for changes in the industrial c l a s s i fication 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, generally minor,
arises from improvements in the quality of the benchmark
data. (A detailed description of the March 1969 benchmark is available from the Bureau upon request.)
One measure of the reliability of ratio estimates is
the root mean square error (RMSE). This measure is the
standard deviation adjusted for the bias in ratio estimates
(RMSE =Y(Standard Deviation) 2 + (Bias) 2 ). If the b i a s
is small, the chances are about 2 out of 3 that an estimate
from the sample would differ from its benchmark by l e s s
than the root mean square error. The chances are about
19 out of 20 that the difference would be l e s s than twice
the root mean square error.
Approximations of the root mean square errors (based
on the experience of the last several years) of differences
between final estimates and benchmarks are presented in
the following table.

revision that may be expected between the preliminary
and final levels of employment and preliminary and final
mo ith-to-month changes. Revisions of preliminary hours
and earnings estimates are normally not greater than .1
of an hour for weekly hours or 1 cent for hourly earnings.
S T A T I S T I C S FOR S T A T E S A N D A R E A S
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 all areas
are published each year in the issue of Employment and
Earnings that contains State and area annual averages
(usually the May issue). Changes in definitions are
noted as they occur. Additional industry detail may be
obtained from the State agencies listed on the inside
back cover of each issue. These statistics are based
on the same establishment reports used by BLS for preparing national estimates. For employment, the sum of
the State 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.
For the States and the areas shown in the B and C
sections of this periodical, all the annual average data
for the detailed industry statistics currently published
by each cooperating State agency are presented (from
the earliest date of availability of each series) in a
summary volume published annually by the BLS.
UNEMPLOYMENT INSURANCE DATA
Insured unemployment represents the number of persons reporting a week of unemployment under an unemployment insurance program. It includes some persons
who are working part time who would be counted as employed in the payroll and household surveys. Excluded
a r e persons who have exhausted their benefit rights
and workers who have not earned rights to unemployment
insurance. In general, excluded from coverage are those
persons who worked in firms whose size excluded them
from the unemployment insurance laws, as well as many
persons engaged in agriculture, domestic service, unpaid
family work, selected nonprofit organizations, State and
local government and self-employment. Also excluded
from the insured unemployment count, but included as
employed in the household survey, are those persons who
earned no wages during the payroll period because they
were temporarily absent from their jobs due to taking
time off, illness and industrial disputes as well as unpaid
vacations. The rate of insured unemployment is the
number of insured unemployed expressed as a percent
of average covered employment in a 12-month period
ending 6 to 8 months prior to the week of reference. Initial
claims are notices filed by those losing jobs covered by
an unemployment insurance program that-they are starting
a period of unemployment. A claimant who continues to
be unemployed a full week is then counted in the insured
unemployment figure.
Because of differences in State laws and procedures
under which unemployment insurance programs are operated, State unemployment rates generally indicate, but
do not precisely measure, differences among the individual States. Persons wishing to receive a detailed
description of the nature, sources, inclusions and exclusions, and limitations of unemployment insurance data
should address their inquiries to Manpower Administration, Wasnington, D.C. 20210.
Many economic statistics reflect a regularly r e c u r r i n g
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 s e r i e s . However, in evaluating deviations f r o m the seasonal pattern—that i s , changes in a
seasonally adjusted s e r i e s — i t is important to note that
seasonal adjustment is merely an approximation based
on past experience. Seasonally adjusted e s t i m a t e s have
a broader margin of possible e r r o r than the original
data on which they a r e based, since they a r e subject not
only to sampling and other e r r o r s but, in addition, a r e
affected by the uncertainties of the seasonal adjustment
p r o c e s s itself. Seasonally adjusted s e r i e s for selected
labor f o r c e and establishment data a r e published regularly
in Employment and Earnings.
The seasonal adjustment method used f o r these s e r i e s
i s an adaptation of the standard ratio-to-moving average
method, with a provision f o r "moving" adjustment f a c t o r s
to take account of changing seasonal p a t t e r n s . A detailed
description of the method is given in the booklet, The BLS
Seasonal Factor Method (1966), which may be. obtained
f r o m the Bureau on request.
For establishment data, the seasonally adjusted
s e r i e s on weekly hours and labor turnover r a t e s for
industry grouDings a r e computed by applying f a c t o r s
directly to the corresponding unadjusted s e r i e s . Howe v e r , seasonally adjusted employment totals f o r all
employees and production w o r k e r s by industry division
a r e obtained by summing seasonally adjusted data f o r
the component industries. Indexes of aggregate weekly
m a n - h o u r s , seasonally adjusted, f o r mining, contract
construction, and the m a j o r industries in manufacturing
a r e obtained by multiplying average weekly hours, s e a sonally adjusted, by production w o r k e r s , seasonally
adjusted, and dividing by the 1957-59 base. F o r total,
manufacturing, and durable and nondurable goods, the
indexes of aggregate weekly m a n - h o u r s , seasonally
adjusted, a r e obtained by summing the aggregate weekly
m a n - h o u r s , seasonally adjusted, f o r the appropriate
component industries and dividing by the 1957-59 base.
The seasonally adjusted establishment data for F e d e r a l Government a r e based on a s e r i e s which excludes
the C h r i s t m a s t e m p o r a r y help employed by the Post
Office Department in December. The employment of these
w o r k e r s constitutes the only significant seasonal change
in F e d e r a l Government employment during the winter
months. F u r t h e r m o r e , the volume of such employment
may change substantially f r o m year to year because of
administrative decisions by the Post Office Department.
Hence, it was considered desirable to exclude this group
f r o m the data upon which the seasonally adjusted s e r i e s
is based.
The revised seasonally adjusted s e r i e s for the establishment data reflect experience through February 1970.
Seasonal f a c t o r s to be used for current adjustment a r e
shown in the June 1970 Employment and Earnings, and
revisions will be made coincidental with the adjustment
of s e r i e s to new benchmark levels.
F o r each of the t h r e e m a j o r labor f o r c e components—
a g r i c u l t u r a l and nonagricultural employment and unemployment—data for four a g e - s e x groups (male and
f e m a l e w o r k e r s under age 20 and age 20 and over) a r e
separately adjusted for seasonal variation and a r e then
added to give seasonally adjusted total f i g u r e s . In o r d e r
to produce seasonally adjusted total employment and
civilian labor f o r c e data, the appropriate s e r i e s a r e
aggregated. The seasonally adjusted r a t e of unemployment is derived by dividing the seasonally adjusted
figure f o r total unemployment (the sum of four s e a s o n ally adjusted age-sex components) by the figure for the
seasonally adjusted civilian labor f o r c e (the sum of
twelve seasonally adjusted age-sex components).
The seasonal adjustment f a c t o r s applying to current
data a r e based on a pattern shown by past experience.
These f a c t o r s a r e revised in the light of the pattern
revealed by subsequent data. Revised seasonally adjusted
s e r i e s f o r m a j o r components of the labor f o r c e based on
data through December 1969 a r e published in the February
1970 Employment and Earnings.
Revisions will be made
annually as each additional y e a r ' s data become available.
ATTENTION
As discussed in the Technical Note, the Bureau periodically a d j u s t s the industry employment series to a recent
benchmark to improve their accuracy. These adjustments may also affect the hours and earnings series because employment levels are used as weights. Industry data for all national series shown in this report have been adjusted to March
1969 benchmarks. Data from A p r i l 1969 forward are subject to revision at the time of the next benchmark.
Beginning with the June 1970 and subsequent i s s u e s of Employment and Earnings, the national data in sections B,
C, and D supersede those published in previous i s s u e s , as well as those appearing in the Handbook of Labor Statistics,
1970. Comparable data will be published in Employment and Earnings, United States, 1909-70, BLS Bulletin 1312-7.
