Bulletin .1312-3, as did its three predecessor volumes, presents detailed industry statistics on the N ation's nonfarm work force. Included are monthly and annual averages on employment covering a ll em ployees, women, production workers in manufacturing and mining, construction workers in contract construction, and non supervisory workers in most o f the remaining nonmanu facturing industries. A lso shown are average w eekly and hourly earnings, average w eekly and overtime hours, and labor turnover rates. Seasonally adjusted data are presented for a number of these series as w ell as indexes o f aggregate w eekly hours and payrolls. T a b les on spendable average w eekly earnings and average hourly earnings, excluding overtime, are also featured. The current volume introduces historical data for nearly 200 series which had not been included on a monthly basis in previous editions. Beginning with January 1964, hours and earn ings of non supervisory workers for the trade division and its subdivision, retail trade, have been expanded to include data on eating and drinking places. Hours and earnings are also shown, for the first time, at the division le v e l, for finance, insurance, and real estate. A group o f summary and analytical items are featured in a special section preceding the detailed industry data. The major technical characteristics of the payroll employment statistics program, such as scope, concepts, survey methods, estimating techniques, and limitations highlighted in the next few paragraphs, are described fully in the technical note follow ing the main body o f sta tistica l tables. Benchmark Adjustments P eriod ica lly, the BLS adjusts its industry employment series to more recent benchmarks (comprehensive counts o f employment) in order to correct for sampling variability and for changes in industrial a ctivity of establishments. In this volume, data adjusted to March 1964 le v e ls are shown for the first time. Consequently, many series, commencing with A pril 1963, have been revised and supersede those previously published in Employment and Earnings, the Monthly Labor Review, and in BLS Bulletin 1312-2. In a few cases, data prior to March 1963 have been revised due to the recent a va ila b ility of improved benchmark information for earlier periods. A special article, " B L S Establishment Employment Estimates R evised to March 1964 Benchmark L e v e l s , " featured in the December 1965 issue o f Employment and Earnings, discusses in detail the e ffect o f the latest benchmark adjustments. Reprints of the article are available upon request (as long as the supply la sts) to the BLS in Washington or to any o f its regional o ffic e s , which are listed on the inside back cover of this bulletin. L e v e ls o f employment for March 1959, 1961, 1962, 1963, and 1964, for industry categories not regularly published in the monthly report Employment and Earnings, are shown in table 6. The data represent the actual count (benchmark) for these industries. For comparative purposes the published industry division totals are also provided in the same table. Collection of Data Each month a representative panel of industrial, commercial, and government establish ments, employing c o lle c tiv e ly about 25 million workers, voluntarily submits information from payroll records to the State agencies participating in the Current Employment Statistics Program. ill After extracting data necessary for the preparation o f State and area estim ates on employment, hours, and earnings, these agencies forward the reports to the BLS (Washington O ffic e ) for use in the development o f national estim ates. This program is conducted jointly by State employ ment security agencies, the Bureau of Labor Statistics, and the Bureau of Employment Security (B E S) in 44 States and the D istrict of Columbia; in the remaining States, the program is a coop erative endeavor by State Departments of Labor and the BLS. Labor turnover sta tistics, showing the rate of accessions and separations, by industry, are also based on data voluntarily supplied by employers. The State agencies in the Labor Turnover Statistics Program have the same respon sib ilities as in the Current Employment Statistics Program. In a ll States and the D istrict o f Columbia, the program is operated by the State employment security agencies in cooperation with BLS and BES. Standard Industrial Classification Each industry title in the bulletin is also identified by the appropriate SIC code. The industry conforms to the definition for that code which is described in the 1957 Standard Industrial Classification Manual as amended by the 1963 Supplement and published by the O ffice o f Statis tica l Standards o f the Bureau of the Budget. Related State and Area Statistics Although only national data are presented in this volume, a companion bulletin, Employment and Earnings Statistics for States and Areas, 1939-64 (B L S Bulletin 1370-2, issued in 1965), provides similar information for a ll States, the D istrict of Columbia, and 159 areas. That bulletin contains annual averages for total employment, and w eekly earnings, w eekly hours, and hourly earnings on the same basis as the National data from the beginning date of each series through 1964. Data for a ll the industry detail currently published by each cooperating State agency are presented in the bulletin. Publication of Current Data Current statistics continuous with the August 1965 figures shown in this book are provided each month in E m p lo ym en t and E a rn in g s, beginning with the December 1965 issue. (F o r details on ordering see the inside front cover o f this bulletin.) * * * * * This bulletin was prepared by the D ivision of Industry Employment Statistics, Robert O. Dorman, Chief, and the Data Systems Research and Development Staff, Rudolph C. Mendelssohn, Chief, under the general direction of Harold Goldstein, A ssistan t Commissioner for Manpower and Employment Statistics, and Dudley E. Young, Deputy A ssistan t Commissioner for Manpower and Employment Statistics. CAUTION P eriod ica lly, the Bureau adjusts the industry employment series to a recent benchmark to improve its accuracy. Th ese adjustments may also a ffect the hours and earnings and labor turnover series because employment le v e ls are used as weights. A ll the industry statistics in this book for periods after March 1964, the present benchmark date, are therefore subject to revision. Future editions o f the present volume are planned for issue when the series are adjusted to new benchmark le v e ls . IV C O NTENTS Page Introdu ction . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
