Revision of the Employment Series of the
Bureau of Labor Statistics
Employment levels for series in this publication have been
adjusted to a first-quarter 1951 benchmark. Previously published
data had been projected froa 19h7 benchmark data.
In conjunction with the benchmark adjustments, the methods
for estimating employment, hours and earnings were improved by the
use of more detailed weighting of the estimates. The new weighting
processes were applied primarily in the manufacturing division.
The industrial classification system continues unchanged,
with firms classified into industries on the basis of principal pro
duct or activity determined from information on annual sales volume
for a recent year. Manufacturing establishments are classified
according to the 19U5 Standard Industrial Classification Manual,
Volume I U. S. Bureau of the Uidget, V/ashington, D. C .; and nomanu
facturing establishments according to the 19U2 Industrial Classifica
tion Code, U. 3. Social Security Board.
The basic source of benchmark information is the quarterly
tabulation of employment by State unemployment insurance agencies,
supplemented by data from the r
J . S. Bureau of Old Age and Survivors
Insurance on employment in firms not covered by State Unemployment
Insurance programs because of their small size. For the industries
not covered by tne social insurance programs, benchmarks are obtained
from special sources such as Interstate Comerce Commission (railroads),
Bureau of the Census (^tate and local government), and Civil Servioe
Commission (Federal Government).
Introduction of more detailed weights for manufacturing
employment estimates beginning with January 1951 will not affect
continuity of the estimates, because data for earlier years have also
been adjusted to the level of the 1951 benchmark.
Adjustments in industry employment levels resulting from
the benchmark revisions are reflected in the group, subdivision and
division levels of which the industry is a part. New summary sheets
which will be available shortly will contain historical data on the
revised basis0
As a result of the new procedures, hours and earnings
estimates and employment indexes for a number of additional manu
facturing industries have been prepared. Employment indexes for
these industries will appear in the May Employment and Payrolls
Monthly Statistical Report. Historical data beginning with
January 1951 will be available on request.
The new procedures will add to the accuracy of the estimates,
and in addition, a greater number of series will be available. For
those individuals desiring a more detailed discussion of the actual
1
steps in estimating, limitations of the series, definitions of terms
and the like, technical notes on both employment and hours and earn
ings are available upon request. These technical notes w ill also
appear in early issues of the Monthly Labor Review.
Revision of Government Series
Beginning with January 1952, the data for Federal Government
employment are not strictly comparable with those for prior years, pri
marily as a result of changes in definition. The following changes were
made starting with that months (1) data refer to the last day of the
month rather than the first of the monthj (2) employment of the Federal
Reserve Banks and of the mixed-ownership banks of the Farm Credit
Administration transferred from the Federal total and the Executive
Branch to the "Banks and Trust Companies" group of the "Finance,
Insurance and Real Estate* division; (3) fourth-class postmasters
formerly included only in the table showing Federal civilian employment,
now included in all tables showing government series except for States
and areas; (U) employment in the General Accounting Office and Govern
ment Printing Office excluded from the Executive Branch and included
in the Legislative Branch; (5) the "Defense agencies" category replaced
try one showing employment in the Department of Defense only.
Rebasing of Special Series
The U , S. Bureau of the Budget has recotranended 19^7-19^9=100
as the base for statistical indexes for Federal agencies, wherever
applicable. This will affect the table giving indexes of productionworker employment and weekly payroll in manufacturing industries, for
merly on a base of 1939*100. This rebasing does not affect the trend
from one period to another, despite the changed index numbers. The
employment indexes for individual manufacturing industries are of
necessity based on 19$1=100.
Historical ^ata
Historical data for employment series are generally available
as follows: all manufacturing from 1909; durable and nondurable goods
from 1939; total nonagri cultural employment and the eight industry divi
sions from 1919» major manufacturing groups from 1939; many manufacturing
industry groups from 19U7; and the remaining manufacturing industry groups
from 195l» Industry employment indexes begin with 1951*
Current Hata
The press releases for April 1953 showing March preliminary data
constitute the first public distribution of the revised data. This Re
port^ and the Hours and Earnings Industry Report for April 1953 contai n
the first published data for detailed industries revised to the new levels.
The Monthly Labor Review for May 1953* which will contain detailed industry
data for the same months as the April Monthly Reports and also selected
earlier periods, will be the first issue of that publication to show re
vised employment, hours, and earnings figures.

Employment Trends
NONFARM EMPLOYMENT UP BY A
QUARTER MILLION IN MARCH
Nonfarm industries added more
than a quarter million workers be
tween mid-February and mid-March,
bringing the total number of employ
ees to 48*7 million, according to
preliminary estimates. This increase
reflected seasonal factors, mainly
the pre-Easter expansion of retail
trade and the early spring upturn in
outdoor activities. However, the
rise in factory employment was some
what larger than usually reported at
this time of year as the output of a
wide range of consumer and industrial
goods continued to increase.
Retail stores added more than
100,000 workers over the month, and
manufacturing employment rose by
85,000. Durable goods industries
continued their expansion, with the
largest gains reported in the lumber,
machinery, and transportation equip
ment groups. Nondurable goods em
ployment, which usually declines
slightly between February and March,
was unchanged this year*
There ware 1-1/2 million more
workers on nonfarm payrolls this
March than in March 1952, with twothirds of the increase occurring in
manufacturing industries. Durable
goods industries— particularly met
als and metal products— hired the
great majority of the 1 million ad
ditional factory workers.
All major nonfarm sectors of the
economy have expanded their work
force since March 1952, with the ex
ception of mining and contract construction. Mining employment con
tinued its long-term downtrend, de
clining by 4.0,000— or almost 5 per
cent— over the year.
Contract construction employ
ment— at 2 .3 million this March—-was
about the same as a year earlier, and
only slightly below the record March
level reached in 1951.
Wholesale and retail stores re
ported an employment increase of over
350,000 during the past year, bring
ing the total to 10.3 million in
March. Part of the gain was due to
the somewhat earlier occurrence of
Easter this year.
Total Government employment this
March— at about 6.7 million— was
slightly higher than a year earlier.
All of the increase occurred in State
and local Governments; Federal em
ployment was down by 19,000.
HOURLY EARNINGS AT RECORD LEVEL
Average hourly earnings of fac
tory production workers in mid-February were at a record level of #1.74,
including overtime and other premium
pay. This was not significantly above the average for mid-January,
when wage stabilization controls were
s till in effect. However, hourly
earnings this Februaxy were 10 cents,
or 6 percent, higher than a year
earlier.
3
At 40.9 hours in February, the
workweek continued at a post-World
War II high for the season. Over
the month, a pre-Easter increase in
average weekly hours in the apparel
industry was slightly outweighed by
seasonal reductions in food, tobacco,
and textiles.
Over the year, the factory work
week was up ty two-tenths of an hour.
Gains of more than a half hour were
reported in the leather, apparel, pa
per, fabricated metals, rubber pro
ducts, and jewelry, toys, and mis
cellaneous manufacturing industry
groups. At this time last year, em
ployment and hours in consumer goods
manufacturing generally had been cur
tailed because of slackened sales and
high inventories.
Reductions of a half hour or
more over the year were reported in
the defense-related ordnance and ma
chinery groups. The rate of. employ
ment expansion in defense-related in
dustries has been slowing down and
the workweek has been declining as
staffing for the present defense pro
gram neared completion. However, av
erage weekly hours in February were
above 40 in these and other defenseconnected industries, indicating that
extensive overtime still was being
scheduled in many plants working on
defense contracts.
Average weekly earnings of fac
tory production workers rose over the
month, to $71.17 in February. Over
the year, factory earnings increased
by $4 .4 2 , or 6-1/2 percent, and the
differential between durable goods
and nondurable goods manufacturing
was widened. Durable goods earnings
rose by $5 .4 3 over the year, to $77.15,
In nondurables, a gain of $2.99
brought the average to $6 2 .3 8.
U
"REAL" EARNINGS HP 4-1/2 PERCENT
SINGE KOREA
Since the outbreak of hostili
ties in Korea in June 1950, factory
workers' average weekly earnings
have risen by about 21 percent as a
result of wage rate gains, longer
workweek, and the increasing pro
portion of workers in the higherpaid defense-related industries.
(See chart.) Higher consumer prices
and income taxes, however, leave
"real11 earnings only slightly above
the pre-Korea level. Net spendable
weekly earnings after income taxes
(for a worker with three dependents^
adjusted by the change in the Con
sumers' Price Index, have gone up by
4-1/2 percent.
Between June 1950 and January
1951— when wage and price controls
first went into effect-gross weekly
earnings rose 7-1/2 percent, while
"real" earnings showed a slight de
cline. During the stabilization
period, from January 1951 to Januaiy
1953, the gain in gross earnings was
12 percent, and the increase in "real"
earnings was 4-1/2 percent. Most of
this rise in "real" earnings came in
1952, when consumer prices were be
ginning to level off after the ini
tial post-Korea upsurge. The slight
reduction in consumer prices and the
increase in weekly hours between
January and February 1953 brought a
further small gain in net spendable
weekly earnings.
FACT CRY LAYOFFS CONTINUE LOW
Layoffs in the Nation's facto
ries in February continued at one of
the lowest rates recorded for the
season since World War I I . The Feb»
ruary 1953 rate of 8 per 1,000 em
ployees, according to preliminary
estimates, was more than a third low
er than in February last year, main
ly because of -sharply reduced layoffs
in consumer goods industries. Be
tween January and February of this
year, layoffs declined slightly, re
flecting fewer working days in the
latter month.
Factory hiring, at £2 per 1,000
employees in February, was only
slightly below the January level. Ihe
decline of 2 per 1,000 in the hiring
rate was less than the reduction usu
ally reported at this time of year,
mainly because of stepped-up hiring
in the apparel and transportation
equipment industry groups. Strong
pre-Easter demand for clothing and
near-record production of automobiles
have been reflected in continued ex
pansion of the work force in these
industries.
Hiring in most other industry
groups also continued at relatively
high levels. As a result, factory
hiring in February 1953 was above the
rate of a year earlier, when many con
sumer goods industries were operat
ing on reduced production schedules.
However, fewer workers were added
than in February 1951, when defenserelated industries were rapidly build
ing up their work force.
Factory workers were quitting
their jobs this February at the rate
of 22 per 1,000 employees— the high
est for the month since 1943. In
February 1952, the rate was 19 per
1,000. The higher quit rate reflects
a more favorable labor market, which
provides increased opportunities for
workers to change their jobs.

State Employment Estimates 1939-1952
Tables S-8 through S-16 present annual averages of nonagricultural employment for each State, by major industry division,
for the period 1939-1952.
These estimates were prepared in order
to meet an expressed need for consistent employment data by State
for the immediate prewar years, the war years, and the post-war
period including the mobilization engendered by the Korean action*
Data for recent years are, to the extent available, the
estimates prepared by State agencies cooperating with the Bureau*
Estimates for the earlier years (generally the period 1939-19U6)
originally prepared by the Bureau's staff have been adjusted to
make them comparable with the State agencies' estimates for later
years.
A Bureau bulletin presenting the monthly employment
estimates for the period 1939-1951 is now being prepared, and may
be available later in the year.

APPENDIX
Section A - EMPLOYMENT
Purpose and Scope of the BLS Employment Statistics Progran
Bnployment statistics for nonfarm industries presented in this
monthly Report are part of the broad program of the Bureau of Labor
Statistics to provide timely, comprehensive, accurate, and detailed infor
mation for the use of businessmen, government officials, legislators, labor
unions, research workers, and the general public. Current e m p l o y m e n t statis
tics furnish a basic indicator of changes in economic activity in various
sectors of the economy and are widely used in following business develop
ments and in making decisions in fields of marketing, personnel, plant
location, and government policy. The BLS employment statistics program,
providing data used in making official indexes of production, productivity
and national income, forms an important part of the Federal statistical
system.
The BLS publishes monthly the national total of employees in
nonagricultural establishments, giving totals by eight major industry
divisions: manufacturing; mining; contract construction; transportation
and public utilities; wholesale and retail trade; finance, insurance, and
real estate; service and miscellaneous; and government. Series on "a ll
employees” and "production and related workers" are presented for the
durable goods and nondurable goods subdivisions of manufacturing, 21 major
industry groups in manufacturing, 131 manufacturing sub-groups and also for
selected mining industries. "All employees" only are published for over 1+0
industry groups among the normanuf actur ing divisions. Statistics on the
number and proportion of women employees in manufacturing industries are
published quarterly. In addition, the Bureau of Labor Statistics publishes
monthly employment data by industry division for State and local areas,
compiled by cooperating State agencies.
Current national, State, and area statistics are published
monthly in the Employment and Payrolls Report. Employment data for 13
months are presented in the Current Statistics Section of each issue of the
Monthly Labor Review. All series, from the earliest available period to
date, may be obtained by writing to the BLS Division of Manpower and Employ
ment Statistics. Similar information is available for States and areas.
A detailed explanation of the technique of preparing employment statistics
will be sent upon request.
89
Definition of Employment
BLS employment statistics represent the number of persons employed
in establishments in nonagricultural industries in the continental United
States during a specified payroll period. Employment data for nongovern
mental establishments refer to persons who worked during, or received pay
for, any part of the pay period ending nearest the 15th of the month.
Current data for Federal Government establishments generally refer to per
sons who worked on, or received pay for, the last day of the month; far
State and local government, persons who received pay for any part of the pay
period ending on, or immediately prior to, the last day of the month.
Bnployed persons include those who are working full- or part-time,
on a temporary or permanent basis. Persons on an establishment payroll who
are on paid sick-leave, paid holiday or paid vacation, or who work during a
part of a specified pay period and are unemployed or on strike during the
other part of the period are considered employed. Persons on the payroll of
more than one establishment during the pay period are counted each time
reported. On the other hand, persons who are laid off or are on leave with
out pay, who are on strike for the entire pay period, or who are hired but
do not report to work during the pay period are not considered employed.
Since proprietors, self-employed persons, and unpaid family workers do not
have the status of "employee," they are not covered by BLS reports. Persons
working as farm workers or as domestic workers in households are not within
the scope of data for nonagricultural establishments. Government employment
statistics refer to civilian employees only and hence exclude members of the
Armed Forces.
Beginning with January 1952, the data for Federal employment are
not strictly comparable with those for prior years, primarily as a result
of changes in definition. The following changes were made starting with
that month: ( 1 ) data refer to the last day of the month rather than the
first of the month; (2) employment of the Federal Reserve Banks and of the
mixed ownership banks of the Farm Credit Administration transferred from the
Federal total and the Executive Branch to the "Banks and Trust Companies’1
group of the "Finance, Insurance, and Real Estate" division; (3) fourth-class
postmasters formerly included only in the table showing Federal civilian
employment, now included in all tables showing government series except for
States and areas; (U) employment in the General Accounting Office and
Government Printing Office excluded from the Executive Branch and included
in the Legislative Bra^rth; (5) the "Defense agencies" category replaced by
one showing employment in the Department of Defense only.
Collection of Establishment Reports
The BLS, with the cooperation of State agencies, collects current
employment information for most industries by means of "shuttle" schedules
(BLS 790 Forms) mailed monthly to individual establishments. State agencies
mail most of the forme and when returned, examine them for consistency,
accuracy, and completeness. States use the information to prepare State and
area series and send the schedules to the BLS Division of Manpower and
90
Employment Statistics for use in preparing the national series* Each
questionnaire provides a line for the State agency to enter data for
December of the previous year, as well as lines for the cooperating
establishment to report for each month of the current calendar year,
the December data, copied from the completed previous year's foim, give
the reporter a means for comparison when reporting for January as an aid
to collection of consistent data. The same form is returned each month
to the reporting establishment to be completed. Definitions of terms are
described in detail in the instructions on each form. This "shuttle"
schedule, which has been used by BLS for more than 20 years, is designed to
assist fiims to report consistently, accurately, and with a minimum of cost.
An establishment is defined as a single physical location, such as
a factory, mine, or store where business is conducted. In the case of a
company with several plants or establishments, the BLS endeavors to obtain
separate l*eports from each business unit which maintains separate payroll
records, since each may be classified in a different industry.
Coverage of Establishment Reports
The Bureau of Labor Statistics obtains monthly reports fran
approximately 155,000 establishments, distributed by industry as shown by
the following table. The table also shows the approximate proportion of
total employment in each industry division covered by the group of establish
ments furnishing monthly employment data. The coverage for individual
industries within the divisions may vary from the proportions shown.

Classification of Establishment Reports
To present meaningful tabulations of employment data, establish
ments are classified into industries on the basis of the principal product
or activity determined from information on annual sales volune for a recent
year. In the case of an establishment making more than one product, the
entire employment of the plant is included under the industry indicated by
the most important product. The titles and descriptions of industries
presented in the 19U5 Standard Industrial Classification Manual. Vol. I
(U. S. Bureau of the Budget, Washington, D. C .) are used for classifying
reports from manufacturing establishments; the 19U2 Industrial Classifica
tion Code. (U* S. Social Security Board) for reports fran nonmanufacturing
establishments*
Benchmark Data
Basic soirees of benchmark information are periodic tabulations
of employment data, by industry, compiled by State agencies from reports of
establishments covered under State unemployment insurance laws. Supple
mentary tabulations prepared ty the U. S . Bureau of Old Age and Survivors
Insurance are used for the group of establishments exempt from State
unemployment insurance laws because of their small size. For industries
not covered by either of the two programs, benchmarks are compiled from
special establishment censuses: for example, for interstate railroads, from
establishment data reported to the ICC; for State and local government,
from data reported to the Bureau of the Census; for the Federal government,
from agency data compiled by the Civil Service Commission. Establishments
are classified into the same industrial groupings for benchmaric purposes as
they are for monthly reporting.
Estimating Method
The estimating procedure for industries for which data on both
"all employees” and •production and related workers" are published (i .e .
manufacturing and selected mining industries) is outlined below; the first
step of this method ?s also used for industries for which only figures on
"all employees* are published.
The first step is to compute total employment (all employees) in
the industry for the month following the benchmark period. The all-employee
total for the benchmark period (March) is multiplied by the percent change
over the month of total employment in a group of establishments reporting
for both March and April* Thus, if firms in the BLS sample report 30,000
employees in March and 31>200 in April, the percentage increase would be
U percent (1,200 divided by 30,000). I f the all-employee benchmark in
March is U0,000, the all-employee total in April would be 10U percent of
i*0,000 or i|l,600.
The second step is to compute the production-worker total for t-he
industry in the month following the benchmaric period. The all-employee
total for the month is multiplied by the ratio of production workers to all
employees. This ratio is computed from those establishment reports which
92
show data for both items. Thus, if these firms in April report 2lt,U00
production workers and a total of 30,!?00 employees, the ratio of production
workers to all employees would be .80 (2U,U00 divided by 3 0 ,5>00). The
production-worker total in *.pril would be 33*280 (iil,600 multiplied by .3 0 ).
Figures for subsequent months are computed by carrying forward the
totals for the previous month according to the method described above. VJhen
annual benchmark data become available, the BLS employment figures for the
benchmark period are compared with the total count. I f differences are
found the ELS series are adjusted to agree with the benchmark count.
Comparability With Other Employment Estimates
Data published by other government and private agencies differ from
BLS employment statistics because of differences in definition, sources of
information, and methods of collection, classification, and estimation. BLS
monthly figures are not comparable, for example, with the estimates of the
Bureau of the Census Monthly Report on the Labor Force. Census data are
obtained by personal interviews with individual members of a sample of house
holds and are designed to provide information on the work status of the whole
population, classified into broad social and economic groups. The BLS, on
the other hand, obtains by mail questionnaire data on employees, based on
payroll records of business units, and prepares detailed statistics on the
industrial and geographic distribution of employment and on hours of work and
earnings.
Since BLS employment figures are based on establishment payroll
records, persons who worked in more than one establishment during the reporting
period-will be counted more than once in the BLS series. By definition,
proprietors, self-employed persons, domestic servants, and unpaid family
workers are excluded from the BLS but not the MRLF series. The two series
also differ in date of reference, BLS collecting data for the pay period
ending nearest the 15th of the month (except for government), while the MRLF
relates to the calendar week containing the 8th day of the month.
Employment estimates derived by the Bureau of the Census from its
quinquennial census and annual sample surveys of manufacturing establishments
also differ from BLS employment statistics. Among the important reasons for
disagreemerit are differences in industries covered, in the business units
considered parts of an establishment, and in the industrial classification
of establishments.
Bnployment Statistics for States and Areas
State and area employment statistics are collected and prepared
by State agencies in cooperation with the Bureau of Labor Statistics. The
names and addresses of these agencies are listed on the last page of the
Report. State agencies use the same basic schedule as the Bureau of Labor
Statistics in collecting employment statistics. State series are adjusted
93
to benchmark data from State unemployment insurance agencies and the Bureau
of Old Age and Survivors Insurance. Because some States ha^e more recent
benchmarks than others and use slightly varying methods of computation, the
sum of the State figures differs from the official U. S. totals prepared by
the Bureau of Labor Statistics. State and area data in greater industry
detail and for earlier periods may be secured directly upon request to the
appropriate State agency or to the Bureau of Labor Statistics.

Section B - LABOR TURN OVER
Definition of Labor Turnover
"Labor turnover," as used in this series, refers to the gross
movement of wage and salary workers into and out of employment status vith
respect to individual firms. This movement is subdivided into two broad
types: accessions (new hires and rehires) and separations (terminations of
employment initiated by either the employer or the employee). Each type of
action is cumulated for a calendar month and expressed as a rate per 100 em
ployees. Bates of accession and separation are shown separately.
Both the types of movement and the employment used as the base for
computing labor turnover rates relate to all employees, including executive,
office, sales, said other salaried personnel as well as production workers.
All groups of employees - full- and part-time, permanent and temporary - are
included. Transfers from one establishment to another within a company are
not considered to be turnover items.
A relatively large percent of all personnel turnover is often
confined to particular groups of employees, such as new workers, trainees,
extra, part-time, and temporary workers. Turnover rates (especially for
periods longer than a month) should not be interpreted as the exact propor
tion of the total number of persons employed at any point in time who change
jobs during a subsequent time interval. For example, a quit rate of 25 per
100 for an annual period (computed by adding the 12 monthly rates) does not
mean that 25 percent of all the persons employed at the beginning of a year
left their jobs by the end of the year.
The terms used in labor turnover statistics are defined below:
Separations are terminations of employment during the calendar
month and are classified according to cause: quits, discharges, layoffs,
and miscellaneous separations (including m ilitary), as defined below.
Quits are terminations of employment during the calendar month
initiated by employees for such reasons as: acceptance of a job in another
company, dissatisfaction, return to school, marriage, maternity, ill health,
or voluntary retirement where no company pension is provided. Failure to re
port after being hired and unauthorized absences of more than seven
consecutive calendar days are also classified as quits. Prior to 19^ 0, mis
cellaneous separations were also included in this category.
Discharges are terminations of employment during the calendar month
initiated by the employer for such reasons as employees' incompetence, viola
tion of rules, dishonesty, Insubordination, laziness, habitual absenteeism,
or inability to meet physical standards.
Layoffs are terminations of employment during the calendar month
lasting or expected to last more than seven consecutive calendar days without
pay, initiated by the employer without prejudice to the worker, for such
95
reasons as lack of orders or materials, release of temporary help,
conversion of plant, introduction of labor-saving machinery or processes, or
suspensions of operations without pay during inventory periods.
Miscellaneous separations ( including military) are terminations of
employment during the calendar month because of permanent disability, death,
retirement on company pension, and entrance into the Armed Forces expected
to last more than thirty consecutive calendar days. Prior to 19^0, miscel
laneous separations were included with quits. Beginning September 19l*0,
military separations were included here.
Persons on leave of absence (paid or unpaid) with the approval of
the employer are not counted as separations until such time as it is defi
nitely determined that such persons will not return to vork. At that time,
a separation is reported as one of the above types, depending on the circum
stances.
Accessions are the total number of permanent and temporary
additions to the employment roll during the calendar month, Including both
nev and rehired employees, Persons returning to work after a layoff, m ili
tary separation, or other absences who have been counted as separations are
considered accessions.
Source of Data and Sample Coverage
Labor turnover data are obtained each month from a sample of
establishments by means of a mail questionnaire. Schedules are received
from approximately 7 ,100 cooperating establishments in the manufacturing,
mining, and communication Industries (see below). The definition of manu
facturing used in the turnover series is more restricted than in the BLS
series on employment, hours, and earnings because of thg exclusion of cer
tain manufacturing industries from the labor turnover sample. The major
Industries excluded sure: printing, publishing, and allied industries (since
-pril 191*3 ); canning and preserving fruits, vegetables, and sea foods;
'^omen's and misses' outerwear; and fertilizer.

Method of Computation
To compute turnover rates for individual industries, the total
number of each type of action (accessions, quits, etc.) reported for a calen
dar month by the sample establishments in each industry is divided by the
total number of employees (both wage and salary workers) reported by these
establishments who worked during, or received pay for, any part of the pay
period ending nearest the 15th of that month. To obtain the rate, the result
is multiplied by 100.
For example, in an industry sample, the total number of employees
who worked during, or received pay for, the week of January 12-18 was re
ported as 25,^98. During the period January 1-31 a total of 28^ employees in
all reporting firms quit. The quit rate for the industry is:
x
100 - 1 .1
25^98
To compute turnover rates for industry groups, the rates for the
component industries are weighted by the estimated employment. Bates for the
durable and nondurable goods subdivisions and manufacturing division are com
puted by weighting the rates of major industry groups by the estimated
employment.
Industry Classification
Beginning with final data for December 19^9 > manufacturing
establishments reporting labor turnover are classified in accordance with
the Standard Industrial Classification (19^5) code structure. Definitions of
nonmanufacturing industries are based on the Social Security Board
Classification Code (19^2).
The durable goods subdivision of manufacturing Includes the
following major groups: ordnance and accessories; lumber and wood products
(except furniture); furniture and fixtures; stone, clay, and glass products;
primary metal Industries; fabricated metal products (except ordnance, ma
chinery, and transportation equipment); machinery (except electrical);
electrical machinery; transportation equipment; instruments and related prod
ucts; and miscellaneous manufacturing industries. The nondurable goods
subdivision includes the following major groups: food and kindred products;
tobacco manufactures; textlle-mill products; apparel and other finished tex
tile products; paper and allied products; chemicals and allied products;
products of petroleum and coal; rubber products; and leather and leather
products.
Comparability With Earlier Data
Labor turnover rates are available on a comparable basis from
January 1930 for manufacturing as a whole and from I 9H3 for two coal mining
and two communication industries. Because of a major revision, labor turn
over rates for many individual industries and industry groups for the period
prior to December 19^9 are not comparable with the rates for the subsequent
period.
97
The revision of the turnover series involved (l ) the adoption of
the Stand&rd Industrial Classification (19^5) code structure for the manu
facturing industries, providing nev industry definitions and groupings (the
industry definitions of the Social Security Board Classification Code (19^2)
vere used in the series beginning in 19^3 and of the Census of Manufactures
in series prior to 19^ 3 )> and (2 ) the introduction of weighting (according
to employment in the component industries) in the computation of industrygroup rates. In the Bureau's previous series, industry-group rates vere
computed directly from the sample of reporting establishments vithout regard
to the relative veight of the component industries.
Comparability With Employment Series
Month-to-month changes in total employment in manufacturing
industries reflected by labor turnover rates are not comparable vith the
changes shown in the Bureau's employment series for the following reasons:
(1 ) Accessions and separations are computed for the entire
calendar-month; the employment reports, for the most part, refer to a 1-week
pay period ending nearest the 15th of the month.
(2) The turnover sample is not as large as the employment sample
and includes proportionately fewer small plants; certain industries are not
covered (see paragraph on source of data and sample coverage).
(3 ) Plants are not included in the turnover computations in
months vhen work stoppages are in progress; the influence of such stoppages
is reflected, however, in the employment figures.
Publications
Additional information on concepts, methodology, special studies,
etc ., is given in a "Technical Note on Labor Turnover," which is available
upon request. This note was summarized in the October 19^9 Monthly Labor
Review (pp. fcl7-H2l) and in Bulletin No. 993. "Techniques of Preparing
Major BLS Statistical Series." The revised sections on quit, layoff, mis
cellaneous separations (including military), and accessions, contained in
these notes, replace those in the above mentioned publications. Summary
