Preface

This bulletin presents monthly and annual average data on employment,
hours, and earnings in States and metropolitan areas by industry for 1972-87.
This is the first issuance of monthly data in a historical format.
The data are obtained from the Current Employment Statistics survey, a
Federal-State cooperative endeavor in which State employment security
agencies prepare the data using concepts, definitions, and technical
procedures prescribed by the Bureau of Labor Statistics. The survey is based
on payroll records of a sample of nonagricultural establishments. In 1987,
the sample included over 300,000 establishments employing over 38 million
wage and salary workers.
Data in this compendium are supplemented on a current basis by the
monthly publication, Employment and Earnings, available by subscription from




the Superintendent of Documents, U.S. Government Printing Office,
Washington, DC 20402. Moreover, State and area news releases are available
upon request to the appropriate State agency listed on the inside back cover
of this bulletin. In addition, basic statistical data on magnetic tapes and personal
computer diskettes are available to interested data users on a cost-for-service
basis. Inquiries should be addressed to the Division of Monthly Industry
Employment Statistics, Bureau of Labor Statistics, Washington, DC 20212.
This bulletin was prepared in the Division of Monthly Industry Employment
Statistics in collaboration with the Division of Federal/State Monthly Surveys
and the Data Users and Publication Services Group.

Introduction

best reflect the significant economic activities in the State or area.
Appendix A describes the collection, concepts, estimating techniques, and
other major characteristics of the CES.
Each year, the industry employment series for States and areas are
adjusted to more recent benchmarks. These adjustments may also affect
the hours and earnings series since employment levels are used as weights.
Except as noted, all series in this volume have been adjusted to March 1987
benchmarks. Thus, data may not be comparable with series published
previously. Data after March 1987 are subject to revision at the time new
benchmarks are introduced. A supplement containing revised data for April
1987 forward is scheduled for publication in late 1989.
Data for metropolitan areas reflect the revised definitions and standards
established by the U.S. Office of Management and Budget effective June
30, 1983. As noted in the tables, these revisions also affect the historical
comparability of area data. The geographic definitions and boundaries of the
metropolitan areas for which data are published in this bulletin are presented
in appendix B.

This bulletin presents 1972-87 monthly and annual average data on
employment, hours, and earnings by industry for the 50 States, the District
of Columbia, Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands, and 262 metropolitan areas.
The annual data supplant those published for recent years in Employment,
Hours, and Earnings, States and Areas, 1939-82 (Bulletin 1370-17) and
Supplement to Employment, Hours, and Earnings, States and Areas, Data
for 1980-84 (Bulletin 1370-19). This is the initial publication of historical
monthly data.
The data are obtained from the Current Employment Statistics (CES) survey
and relate to the nonfarm sector of the economy. They exclude members
of the Armed Forces, agricultural workers, the self-employed, and private
household and unpaid family workers. Hours and earnings data relate to
production workers in mining and manufacturing; construction workers in
construction; and nonsupervisory workers in transportation and public utilities;
wholesale and retail trade; finance, insurance, and real estate; and services.
Data for industries are based on the 1972 Standard Industrial Classification
(sic) Manual. Industries selected for publication are generally those which
