Preface

Statistics on the labor force status of the population,
classified by a variety of demographic, social, and eco­
nomic characteristics, are derived from the Current
Population Survey (cps ), which is conducted by the
Bureau of the Census for the Bureau of Labor Statistics.
These data, which are analyzed and published by
bls , appear in a number of publications, ranging from
news releases to compilations of statistical data and ana­
lytical reports. Moreover, basic statistical data in the
form of raw tabulations or machine-readable printouts
from the bls data bank are made available to inter­
ested data users.
This 2-volume bulletin is the first comprehensive
historical collection of national data derived from the cps.
The data contained in these volumes are supplemented on a
current basis by the monthly publications Employment and
Earnings and the Monthly Labor Review, available by
subscription from the Superintendent of Documents,
U.S. Government Printing Office, Washington, D.C.
20402.
Major studies of special aspects of labor force activ­
ity are usually published as Special Labor Force Reports,
after initially appearing as articles in the Monthly Labor
Review. Reprints are available as long as supplies last




from bls or any of its regional offices listed on the
inside back cover of this bulletin.

These volumes were prepared under the direction of
Gloria Peterson Green, a supervisory labor economist
in the Division of Employment and Unemployment
Analysis, John E. Bregger, Chief. Robert J. Mclntire,
Chief of the Data Services Group, directed the com­
puter operations.
Other contributors were: Martha L. Coleman, Stella
W. Cromartie, Lois D. Gatling, Francis W. Horvath,
John E. Howe, Jerome E. Jiles, Marion Hester Jones,
John A. Lawrence, Annice Tyler Mee, Earl Mellor,
Barbara H. Nussear, Loretta M. Profater, Ronald
Richardson, Rosanna P. Sockwell, John F. Stinson, Jr.,
and Bob Whitmore.
A special thanks is extended to the Vertex Corpora­
tion, which redesigned and implemented the Current
Employment and Unemployment Analysis (ceua )
data system and assisted in the compilation of these
volumes.

Introduction

This bulletin brings together in two volumes histori­
cal monthly, quarterly, and annual average data deri­
ved from the Current Population Survey. It was planned
and developed to a large extent in response to inquiries
by various data users, including private and government
officials and analysts, administrators of affirmative ac­
tion programs, academicians, counselors, students, and
planners.
The explanatory notes which follow the tables pro­
vide detailed information on collection, concepts, defi­
nitions, historical comparability, and sampling variabil­
ity. The tables themselves are divided into five major
sections, and data are presented either from the incep­
tion of the different series or from the date for which
the series are available on a historically comparable
basis.
The first section contains monthly data (unadjusted
for seasonality) and annual average data on the noninstitutional population, members of the Armed Forces,
the labor force, employment, and unemployment,
cross-classified by a number of demographic, social, and
economic characteristics.




The second section contains annual average data for
various labor force series, most of which have not pre­
viously been readily available in a historical format.
These include industry employment cross-classified by
occupation; the proportion of women and blacks em­
ployed in detailed occupations and industries; and du­
ration of unemployment by age, sex, and race.
The third section provides data derived from supple­
mentary questions asked once a year. These include
such subjects as school enrollment, educational attain­
ment, multiple jobholding, work experience, hours of
work and earnings, and the labor force status of work­
ing mothers with children.
The fourth and fifth sections contain, respectively,
monthly and quarterly seasonally adjusted data for over
3,000 labor force series. Many unadjusted labor force
series are not published in this volume due to space
limitations. Inquiries concerning these series, as well as
the seasonal adjustment methodology utilized, should
be addressed to Robert J. Mclntire, Chief, Data Serv­
ices Group, Bureau of Labor Statistics, Washington,
D.C. 20212.

1 Percent not shown where base is less than 35,000.
NOTE: Vietnam-era veterans are males who have served in the Armed Forces
between August 5,1964 and May 7,1975. Nonveterans are males who never served
in the Armed Forces. Although Public Law 96-466 (the Veterans Rehabilitation and
Education Amendments of 1980), which became effective October 17, 1980,




requires publication of labor market data for veterans who actually served in the
Vietnam theater of operations, these data are not presently collected. Because of
the widespread interest in statistics for all Vietnam-era veterans, the BLS is
continuing publication of annual data for this group since these data are currently
available.

differ from those shown in tables C-27 and C-28 because fewer workers report hours

number of days or hours usually worked.

Explanatory Notes

Collection and Coverage

Concepts and Definitions

Statistics on the labor force, employment, unemploy­
ment, and persons not in the labor force, classified by
a variety of demographic, social, and economic charactistics are derived from the Current Population Survey
(CPS), which is conducted by the Bureau of the Census
for the Bureau of Labor Statistics. A detailed descrip­
tion of the survey appears in Concepts and Methods Used
in Labor Force Statistics Derived From the Current Popu­
lation Survey, Bureau of Labor Statistics Report 463.
The Current Population Survey is conducted using
a scientifically selected sample of about 60,000 house­
holds designed to represent the civilian noninstitutional
population. Households are interviewed on a rotating
basis so that three-fourths of the sample is the same for
any 2 consecutive months, and one-half is the same from
year to year.
In addition to providing monthly statistics on the em­
ployment status of the population, the survey, through
special inquiries repeated annually in the same month,
provides detailed supplementary information for par­
ticular characteristics of the population. These inquiries
include the extent of work experience of the popula­
tion, the extent of overtime work at premium pay, work
schedules, and the prevalence of multiple jobholding.
They also include marital and family status of workers;
the annual earnings and income of individuals and fami­
lies; and the employment status of such groups as work­
ing mothers with children, high school graduates and
dropouts, and recent college graduates.
Respondents are interviewed to obtain infornjation
about the employment status of each member of the
household 16 years of age and over. (Separate statistics
are also collected and published for 14- and 15-yearolds.) The inquiry relates to activity or status during
the calendar week, Sunday through Saturday, which
includes the 12th day of the month. Actual field inter­
viewing is conducted in the following week.
Inmates of institutions and persons under 14 years of
age are not covered in the regular monthly enumera­
tions and are excluded from the population and labor
force statistics shown in this bulletin. Data on members
of the Armed Forces are obtained from the Department
of Defense.

The concepts and definitions underlying labor force
data have been modified, but not substantially altered,
since the inception of the survey in 1940; those used
since 1967 are as follows:
Employed persons are (1) all civilians who, during the
survey week, did any work at all as paid employees, in
their own business, profession, or on their own farm,
or who worked 15 hours or more as unpaid workers in
an enterprise operated by a member of the family; and
(2) all those who were not working but who had jobs
or businesses from which they were temporarily absent
because of illness, bad weather, vacation, labor-man­
agement disputes, or personal reasons, whether they
were paid for the time off or were seeking other jobs.
Included in the total are employed citizens of foreign
countries who are temporarily in the United States but
not living on the premises of an embassy. Excluded are
persons whose only activity consisted of work around
the house (painting, repairing, or own home housework)
or volunteer work for religious, charitable, and similar
organizations.
Unemployed persons are all civilians who had no em­
ployment during the survey week, were available for
work, except for temporary illness, and (1) had made
specific efforts to find employment sometime during the
prior 4 weeks, or (2) were waiting to be recalled to a
job from which they had been laid off, or (3) were
waiting to report to a new job within 30 days.
The civilian labor force comprises all civilians classi­
fied as employed or unemployed in accordance with
the criteria described above. The “total labor force”
also includes members of the Armed Forces stationed
either in the United States or abroad.
The unemployment rate represents the number un­
employed as a percent of the civilian labor force. This
measure can also be computed for groups within the
labor force classified by sex, age, race, ethnic origin,
marital status, etc.
Duration of unemployment represents the length of
time (through the current survey week) during which
persons classified as unemployed had been continuously
looking for work. For persons on layoff, duration of
unemployment represents the number of full weeks since




781

the termination of their most recent employment. A pe­
riod of 2 weeks or more during which a person was
employed or ceased looking for work is considered to
break the continuity of the present period of seeking
work. Measurements of mean and median duration are
computed from a distribution of single weeks of
unemployment.
Unemployment is also categorized according to the
status of individuals at the time they began to look for
work. The reasons for unemployment are divided into
four major groups. (1) Job losers are persons whose em­
ployment ended involuntarily who immediately began
looking for work, and persons on layoff. (2) Job leavers
are persons who quit or otherwise terminated their em­
ployment voluntarily and immediately began looking
for work. (3) Reentrants are persons who previously
worked at a full-time job lasting 2 weeks or longer but
were out of the labor force prior to beginning to look
for work. (4) New entrants are persons who never
worked at a full-time job lasting 2 weeks or longer.
Each of these four categories of the unemployed may
be expressed as an unemployment rate or proportion of
the entire civilian labor force; the sum of the four rates
thus equals the overall unemployment rate.
Jobseekers are all unemployed persons who made spe­
cific efforts to find a job sometime during the 4-week
period preceding the survey week. Jobseekers do not
include those persons unemployed because they (1) were
waiting to be called back to a job from which they had
been laid off or (2) were waiting to report to a new job
within 30 days. Jobseekers are grouped by the methods
used to seek work, including going to a public or pri­
vate employment agency or to an employer directly,
seeking assistance from friends or relatives, placing or
answering ads, or utilizing some other method. Exam­
ples of the “other” category include being on a union
or professional register, obtaining assistance from a com­
munity organization, or waiting at a designated labor
pickup point.
Participation rates represent the proportion of the noninstitutional population that is in the labor force. Two
types of participation rates are published: The total la­
bor force participation rate, which is the ratio of the
total labor force to the total noninstitutional population,
and the civilian labor force participation rate, which is
the ratio of the civilian labor force to the civilian non­
institutional population. Participation rates are usually
published for sex-age groups, often cross-classified by
other demographic characteristics such as race and edu­
cational attainment.
Employment-population ratios represent the propor­
tion of the noninstitutional population that is employed.
Not in the labor force includes all persons who are
not classified as employed, unemployed, or in the Armed
Forces. These persons are further classified as engaged



782

in own-home housework, in school, unable to work be­
cause of long-term physical or mental illness, retired,
and other. The “other” group includes individuals re­
ported as too old or temporarily unable to work, the
voluntarily idle, seasonal workers for whom the survey
week fell in an off season and who were not reported
as looking for work, and persons who did not look for
work because they believed that no jobs were available
in the area or that no jobs were available for which
they could qualify—discouraged workers. Persons do­
ing only incidental, unpaid family work (less than 15
hours in the specified week) are also classified as not
in labor force.
For persons not in the labor force, detailed questions
are asked about previous work experience, intentions
to seek work, desire for a job at the time of interview,
and reasons for not looking for work. These questions
are asked only in those households that are leaving the
sample after their first or second 4-month interviewing
period. Prior to 1970, these questions were asked in
those households entering the sample for the first time
and those returning for the second 4 months of
interviewing.
Occupation, industry, and class of worker for the em­
ployed apply to the job held in the survey week. Per­
sons with two or more jobs are classified in the job at
which they worked the greatest number of hours dur­
ing the survey week. The unemployed are classified ac­
cording to their last full-time civilian job lasting 2 weeks
or more. The classifications of occupations and indus­
tries used in data derived from the CPS are defined as
in the 1970 Census of Population.
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 government unit. Self-employed
persons are those who work for profit or fees in their
own business, profession, or trade, or operate a farm.
Unpaid family workers are persons working without
pay for 15 hours a week or more on a farm or in a
business operated by a member of the household to
whom they are related by blood or marriage.
Hours-of-work statistics relate to the actual number of
hours worked during the survey week. For example,
persons who normally work 40 hours a week but were
off on the Columbus Day holiday would be reported
as working 32 hours even though they were 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; all the hours are credited to the
major job.
The distribution of employment by hours worked re­
lates to persons at work during the survey week. At-

work data differ from data on total employment be­
cause the latter include persons in the zerohours-worked category, with a job but not at work. In­
cluded in this latter group are persons who were on
vacation, ill, involved in a labor dispute, or otherwise
absent from their jobs for voluntary, noneconomic
reasons.
Persons who worked 35 hours or more in the survey
week are designated as working full time. Persons who
worked between 1 and 34 hours are designated as work­
ing part time. Part-time workers are classified by their
usual status at their present job (either full or part time)
and by their reason for working part time during the
survey week (economic or other reasons). Economic
reasons include: Slack work, material shortages, repairs
to plant or equipment, start or termination of a job dur­
ing the week, and inability to find full-time work. Other
reasons include: Labor dispute, bad weather, own ill­
ness, 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 in­
clude, in addition to those working 35 hours or more,
those who worked from 1 to 34 hours for noneconomic
reasons and usually work full time.
The full-time labor force consists of persons working
on full-time schedules, persons involuntarily working
part time (part time for economic reasons), and un­
employed persons seeking full-time jobs. The part-time
labor force consists of persons working part time vol­
untarily and unemployed persons seeking part-time
work. Persons with a job but not at work during the
survey week are classified according to whether they
usually work full or part time.
Labor force time lost is a measure of aggregate hours
lost to the economy through unemployment and invol­
untary part-time employment and is expressed as a per­
cent of potentially available aggregate hours. It is com­
puted by assuming that: (1) Unemployed persons look­
ing for full-time work lost an average of 37.5 hours, (2)
those looking for part-time work lost the average num­
ber of hours actually worked by voluntary part-time
workers during the survey week, and (3) persons on
part time for economic reasons lost the difference be­
tween 37.5 hours and the actual number of hours they
worked.
White and black and other are terms used to describe
the race of workers. The black-and-other category in­
cludes all persons who identified themselves in the enu­
meration process to be other than white. In the 1980
decennial census, 83 percent of the black-and-other ci­
vilian noninstitutional population, 16 years and over,
were black; the remainder were primarily American
Indians, Alaskan Natives, and Asians and Pacific Is­
landers. The term black is used in this volume when
the relevant data are provided exclusively for the black
population.



Hispanic origin refers to persons who identified them­
selves in the enumeration process as Mexican, Puerto
Rican living on the mainland, Cuban, Central or South
American, or of other Hispanic origin or descent.
Major activity: going to school and Major activity: other
are terms used to describe whether the activity of young
persons during the reference week is primarily one of
going to school or not. These statistics are published
for 16-to 21-year-olds.
Vietnam-era veterans are those who served in the
Armed Forces of the United States between August 5,
1964, and May 7, 1975. Data are limited to males in the
civilian noninstitutional population; i.e., veterans in in­
stitutions and females are excluded. Nonveterans are
males who never served in the Armed Forces.
The poverty areas classification consists of all census
geographical divisions in which 20 percent or more of
the residents were poor according to the 1970 decen­
nial census. Persons were classified as poor or nonpoor
by using income thresholds adopted by a Federal inter­
agency committee in 1969. These thresholds vary by
family size, composition, and residence (farm-nonfarm).
While poverty areas have a substantial concentration
of low-income residents, many poor persons live out­
side these areas, and, conversely, the areas include many
people who are not poor.
The metropolitan areas classification consists of the
total of all areas encompassed by Standard Metropoli­
tan Statistical Areas (SMSA’s). The metropolitan area
total is based on the number of SMSA’s as defined in
the 1970 decennial census and does not include any
subsequent additions or changes. Nonmetropolitan areas
refer to the total of all areas outside SMSA’s. The non­
metropolitan total is disaggregated into farm and non­
farm components.
In addition to the above concepts and definitions, the
criteria below underlie the special labor force data col­
lected annually in supplements to the monthly CPS.
Supplementary surveys are conducted in March to get
data on work experience of the population during the
preceding year, marital and family characteristics of
workers, working mothers with children, educational
attainment, and the annual earnings and income of in­
dividuals and families. Supplementary data were col­
lected in May on multiple jobholding, premium pay,
work schedules, shift work, long hours, and absences.
As a result of budget cutbacks, the sample size of the
May 1981 supplement was reduced by three-fourths,
and the supplement was discontinued altogether in May
1982. Weekly and hourly earnings information was col­
lected in May until 1979; for 1979 forward, quarterly
and annual averages are available. Data are collected
in October on school enrollment and the employment
status of high school graduates and dropouts.
Persons with work experience are all civilians who
worked at any time during the preceding calendar year
783

at full- or part-time jobs for pay or profit (including
paid vacation and sick leave) or worked without pay
on a farm or in a business that was family operated.
Extent of employment represents the proportion of the
population who worked and the total number of weeks
worked during the preceding calendar year.
Year-roundfull-time workers are civilians who worked
primarily at full-time jobs for 50 or more weeks during
the preceding calendar year. Part-year workers are ci­
vilians who worked either full or part time for 1 to 49
weeks. These workers are further classified on the basis
of their major activity during most of the weeks in
which they did not work. These activities include un­
employment or layoff, illness or disability (excluding
paid sick leave), taking care of home, going to school,
retirement, military service, etc.
Nonworkers are persons who did not work during the
year. These persons are also classified according to their
primary reason for not working, such as illness or dis­
ability, home responsibilities, school attendance, inabil­
ity to find work, retirement, serving in the Armed
Forces, and other reasons. They are also classified as
to whether or not they looked for work.
Longest job refers to the one held for the greatest
number of weeks during the year. For most wage and
salary workers, a job is defined as all the time worked
for the same employer. The only exception is work for
private families (domestic service, child care, odd jobs,
etc.) which is counted as a single job regardless of the
number of employers. Self-employment and unpaid
family work are also designated as jobs for purposes of
this survey.
A spell of unemployment represents a continuous pe­
riod of unemployment of at least 1 week’s duration. A
spell is terminated by employment or withdrawal from
the labor force.
Extent of unemployment represents the number and
proportion of the labor force that was unemployed at
some time during the year. The number of weeks un­
employed is the total number of weeks accumulated
during the entire year.
Single, never married; married, spousepresent; and other
marital status are terms used to define the marital status
of individuals at the time of interview. Married, spouse
present, applies to husband and wife if both were re­
ported as members of the same household even though
one may be temporarily absent on business, vacation,
on a visit, in a hospital, etc. Other marital status applies
to persons who are married, spouse absent; widowed;
or divorced. Married, spouse absent, includes persons
who are separated because of marital discord, as well
as persons who are living apart because either the hus­
band or the wife was employed and living away from
home, serving in the Armed Forces, or had a different
place of residence for any reason.



784

Family refers to a group of two or more persons re­
siding together who are related by blood, marriage, or
adoption; all such persons are considered as members
of one family even though they may include a sub­
family, that is, a married couple or a parent-child group
related by blood or marriage to the householder and
sharing the living quarters. The count of families used
in this bulletin includes primary families only, that is,
all persons in the household who are related to the
householder. Excluded are secondary families which
include lodgers, guests, or resident employees living in
a household but not related to the householder. Fami­
lies are classified either as married-couple families or as
families maintained by women or men. A family main­
tained by a woman or a man is one in which the house­
holder is either single, widowed, divorced, or married,
spouse absent.
A household consists of all persons—related family
members and all unrelated persons—who occupy a
housing unit. A house, an apartment, a group of rooms,
or a single room is regarded as a housing unit when
occupied or intended for occupancy as separate living
quarters.
A householder is the person (or one of the persons)
in whose name the housing unit is owned or rented.
The term is never applied to either husbands or wives
in married-couple families but relates only to persons
in families maintained by either men or women with­
out a spouse.
Multiple jobholders are persons who, during the sur­
vey week, (1) had jobs as wage or salary workers with
two employers or more, (2) were self-employed and
also held wage or salary jobs, or (3) worked as unpaid
family workers but also had secondary wage or salary
jobs. A person employed only in private households
(cleaner, gardener, babysitter, etc.) who worked for two
or more employers during the survey week is not
counted as a multiple jobholder. Working for several
employers is considered an inherent characteristic of
private household work. Also excluded are self-em­
ployed persons with additional farms or businesses and
persons with any additional jobs as unpaid family
workers. The primary job is the one at which the great­
est number of hours were worked.
Earnings are all money income of $1 or more from
wages and salaries and net money income of $1 or more
from farm and nonfarm self-employment.
Income represents the total amount of money received
in the preceding calendar year from (1) money wages
and salaries; (2) net income from self-employment; (3)
social security; (4) dividends, interest (on savings and
bonds), net rental income, and income from estates and
trusts; (5) public assistance; (6) unemployment and
workers’ compensation, government employee pen­
sions, and veterans’ payments; and (7) private pensions,

annuities, alimony, regular contributions from persons
not living in the same household, net royalties, and
other periodic income. The amount received represents
income before deductions of personal taxes, social se­
curity, savings bonds, union dues, health insurance, and
the like. The total income of a family is the sum of the
amounts received by all persons in the family.
Median earnings indicate the value which divides the
earnings distribution into two equal parts, one part hav­
ing values above the median and the other having val­
ues below the median. The medians as shown in this
report are calculated from the corresponding distribu­
tions by linear interpolation within the interval in which
the median falls. Therefore, because of this interpola­
tion, the median value depends not only on the distri­
bution of income or earnings but also on the income or
earnings intervals used in calculating the median.
Hourly earnings refer to the wage rates or straight-time
earnings of wage and salary workers paid by the hour.
Data relate to earnings from the sole or primary job.
Usual weekly earnings data are provided from re­
sponses to the question “How much does ... USUALLY
earn per week at this job before deductions? Included
are any overtime pay, commissions, or tips usually re­
ceived.” The response is for the worker’s sole or prin­
cipal job. The term “usual” is as perceived by the re­
spondent. If the respondent asks for a definition of usual,
interviewers are instructed to define the term as more
than half the weeks worked during the past 4 or 5
months. Data refer to wage and salary workers and the
incorporated self-employed, who usually work full time
on their sole or primary job.
Shift-work data refer to the period of the day that
nonfarm wage and salary workers on full-time sched­
ules work during the survey week. The evening and
night shifts are defined as those of which at least half
the hours fall between 4 p.m. and midnight, and mid­
night and 8 a.m., respectively. All full-time schedules
of less than 6 or more than 12 hours per shift, however,
are defined as miscellaneous shifts, regardless of the day
they are scheduled. Data refer only to the shift of the
sole or primary job.
Days worked refer to the number of days usually
worked per week at the sole or primary job. Data re­
fer to nonfarm wage and salary workers (excluding pri­
vate household workers) who usually work full time.
Educational attainment applies to years of school com­
pleted in regular schools, which include graded public,
private, and parochial elementary and high schools, col­
leges, universities, and professional schools, whether
day schools or night schools. Thus, regular schooling
is that which could be expected to advance a person to
an elementary certificate; a high school diploma; or a
college, university, or professional school degree.
Median years of school completed indicate the value
which divides the population group into two equal parts,



785

one part having completed more schooling and one part
having completed less schooling than the median. For
purposes of computing these medians, the years of
school completed are numbered consecutively; for ex­
ample, the first year of high school is indicated by 9
and the first year of college by 13. The medians are
expressed in continuous part-years, although the re­
spondents’ answers to the survey questions are in terms
of complete, discrete years.
School enrollment statistics are based on replies to the
inquiry as to whether the person was enrolled in day
or night school in any type of public, parochial, or other
private school in the regular school system. Such
schools include elementary schools, junior or senior
high schools, and colleges or universities. Persons en­
rolled in special schools not in the regular school sys­
tem, such as trade schools or business colleges, are not
included in the enrollment figures. Persons enrolled in
classes which do not require physical presence in school,
such as correspondence courses or other courses of in­
dependent study, and training courses given directly on
the job, are not reported as enrolled in school.
Historical Comparability
Change in lower age limit

The lower age limit for official statistics on the labor
force, employment, and unemployment was raised from
14 to 16 years of age in January 1967. Insofar as pos­
sible, historical series have been revised to provide con­
sistent information based on the population 16 years
and over. For a detailed discussion of this and other
definitional changes introduced at that time, including
estimates of their effect on the various series, see “New
Definitions for Employment and Unemployment,” Em­
ployment and Earnings and Monthly Report on the La­
bor Force, February 1967.
Noncomparability of labor force levels

In addition to the changes introduced in 1967, there
are several other periods of noncomparability in the la­
bor force data: (1) Beginning in 1953, as a result of in­
troducing data from the 1950 census into the estimat­
ing procedure, population levels were raised by about
600,000; labor force, total employment, and agricultural
employment were increased by about 350,000, primarily
affecting the figures for totals and males; other catego­
ries were relatively unaffected. (2) Beginning in 1960,
the inclusion of Alaska and Hawaii resulted in an in­
crease of about 500,000 in the population and about
300,000 in the labor force—four-fifths of this increase
was in nonagricultural employment; other labor force
categories were not appreciably affected. (3) Beginning
in 1962, the introduction of data from the 1960 census
reduced the population by about 50,000 and labor force
and employment by about 200,000; unemployment to-

tals were virtually unchanged. (4) Beginning in 1972,
information from the 1970 census was introduced into
the estimation procedures, increasing the population by
about 800,000; labor force and employment totals were
raised by a little more than 300,000; and unemployment
levels and rates were essentially unchanged. (5) A sub­
sequent population adjustment based on the 1970 census
was introduced in March 1973. This adjustment, which
affected the white and black-and-other groups but had
little effect on totals, resulted in the reduction of nearly
300,000 in the white population and an increase of the
same magnitude in the black-and-other population. Ci­
vilian labor force and total employment figures were
affected to a lesser degree; the white labor force was
reduced by 150,000, and the black-and-other labor force
rose by about 210,000. Unemployment levels and rates
were not significantly affected.
In addition, beginning in January 1974, the method­
ology used to prepare independent estimates of the ci­
vilian noninstitutional population was modified to an
inflation-deflation approach. This change in the deriva­
tion of the estimates had its greatest impact on estimates
of 20- to 24-year-old males—particularly those of the
black-and-other population—but had little effect on es­
timates of the total population 16 years and over.
Effective in July 1975, as a result of the immigration
of Vietnamese refugees into the United States, the to­
tal and black-and-other independent population controls
for persons 16 years and over were adjusted upward
by 76,000—30,000 males and 46,000 females. The addi­
tion of the refugees increased the black-and-other popu­
lation by less than 1 percent in any age-sex group, and
all of the changes were in the other population.
Beginning in January 1978, the introduction of an ex­
pansion in the sample and revisions in the estimation
procedures resulted in an increase of about a quarter of
a million in the overall civilian labor force and employ­
ment totals; unemployment levels and rates were essen­
tially unchanged.
Beginning in 1979, the first-stage ratio estimation
method was changed in the CPS estimation procedure.
The new procedure is described in the Estimating
Methods section. Differences between the old and new
procedures exist only for metropolitan and nonmetro­
politan estimates, not for the total United States.
Beginning in January 1982, the second-stage ratio ad­
justment methodology was changed in the CPS estima­
tion procedure. The new procedure is described in the
Estimating Methods section. The purpose of the change
and an indication of its effect on national estimates of
labor force characteristics appear in “Revisions in the
Current Population Survey in January 1982” in the Feb­
ruary 1982 issue of Employment and Earnings. In addi­
tion, current population estimates used in the sec­
ond-stage estimation procedure are derived from infor­
mation obtained from the 1980 census, rather than the



1970 census. This change caused substantial increases
in total population and estimates of persons in all labor
force catagories. Rates on labor force characteristics,
however, remained virtually unchanged. Some 30,000
labor force series were adjusted back to 1970 to avoid
major breaks in series. The adjustment procedure used
is also described in the February 1982 article cited
above. The revisions did not, however, smooth out the
breaks in series occurring between 1972 and 1979 that
are described above, and data users should make allow­
ances for them in making certain data comparisons. Due
to the absence of 1980 census population estimates, data
contained in tables C-17, C-18, and C-27 through C-41
have not been adjusted.
Changes in the occupational classification
system

Beginning in 1971, the comparability of occupational
employment data was affected as a result of changes in
the occupational classification system for the 1970
census that were introduced into the CPS. These
changes, which reflected recognition of new categories
and a refinement of existing ones, resulted in a break in
series for many major occupational groups. Compara­
bility was further affected in December 1971, when a
question relating to major activity or duties was added
to the monthly CPS questionnaire in order to determine
more precisely the occupational classification of indi­
viduals. This change resulted in several dramatic occu­
pational shifts. As a result of this double break in series
in 1971, meaningful comparisons of occupational em­
ployment levels cannot be made between 1971-72 and
prior years nor between these 2 years. The revisions in
the occupational classification system as well as in the
CPS questionnaire are believed to have had a negligi­
ble effect on unemployment rates. For a further expla­
nation of the changes in the occupational classification
system, see “Revisions in Occupational Classifications
for 1971” and “Revisions in the Current Population
Survey” in the February 1971 and February 1972 is­
sues, respectively, of Employment and Earnings.

Changes in the sample design

Since the inception of the survey, there have been
various changes in the design of the CPS sample. Most
of these changes were made in order to improve the
efficiency of the sample design and/or to increase the
reliability of the sample estimates.
One major change made after every decennial census
is to change the sample design to make use of the re­
cently collected census materials. Also, the number of
sample areas and the number of sample persons are in­
creased occasionally. In 1953, the current rotation plan
was introduced in which a sample unit is interviewed
for 4 months, leaves the sample for 8 months, and then
returns to the sample for another 4 months. When Alaska

panel of respondents. The CPS estimation procedure
involves weighting the data from each sample person.
The basic weight, which is the inverse of the probabil­
ity of the person being in the sample, is a rough meas­
ure of the number of actual persons that the sample
person represents. In States supplemented in the 1978
and 1980 expansions, almost all sample persons within
the same sample area have the same basic weight, but
the weight may differ across sample areas. The basic
weight is the same for almost all sample persons in
unsupplemented States. The basic weights are then ad­
justed for noninterview, and the ratio estimation pro­
cedure is applied.
1. Noninterview adjustment. The weights for all inter­
viewed households are adjusted to the extent needed
to account for occupied sample households for which
no information was obtained because of absence, im­
passable roads, refusals, or unavailability of the respond­
ents for other reasons. This adjustment is made sepa­
rately by combinations of sample areas within each State
and the District of Columbia, and within these, for six
groups—two race categories (white, and black and
other) within three residential categories. For sample
areas which are SMSA’S, these residence categories are
the central cities, the urban, and the rural balance of
the SMSA’S. For other sample areas, the residence
categories are urban, rural nonfarm, and rural farm. The
proportion of sample households not interviewed varies
from 4 to 5 percent, depending on weather, vacations,
etc.
2. Ratio estimates. The distribution of the population
selected for the sample may differ somewhat, by chance,
from that of the population as a whole, in such char­
acteristics as age, race, sex, and residence. Since these
characteristics are closely correlated with labor force
participation and other principal measurements made
from the sample, the survey estimates can be substan­

multaneously and are based on returns from the entire mates as follows:
and Hawaii achieved statehood, three more sample areas
were added to account for the population in these States.
After the 1960 census, selection of a major portion of
the sample from census address lists was begun, though
a portion of the sample is still collected using area sam­
pling. Following the 1970 census, the ultimate sampling
unit was changed from a noncontiguous cluster of six
housing units to a usually contiguous cluster of four
housing units. In January 1978, a supplemental sample
of 9,000 housing units, selected in 24 States and the
District of Columbia and designed to provide more re­
liable annual average estimates for States, was incorpo­
rated into the design. A coverage improvement sample,
composed of approximately 450 sample household units
which represent 237,000 occupied mobile homes and
600,000 new construction housing units, was included
in computing the estimates beginning in October 1978
in order to provide coverage of mobile homes and new
construction units that previously had no chance for
selection in the CPS sample. In January 1980, another
supplemental sample of 9,000 households selected in 32
States and the District of Columbia was added to the
existing sample. A sample reduction of about 6,000 units
was implemented in May 1981. Beginning in January
1982, the sample was expanded by 100 households to
provide additional coverage in counties added to
SMSA’S, which were redefined in 1973.
Table A provides a description of some aspects of
the CPS sample design in use during the different data
collection periods. A more detailed account of the his­
tory of the CPS sample design appears in The Current
Population Survey: Design and Methodology, Technical
Paper No. 40, Bureau of the Census, or Concepts and
Methods Used in Labor Force Statistics Derived From the

little or no effect on the household data published,
except that the estimated totals of population and
labor force characteristics for “whites” in selected
age categories and for “black and other” are more
variable from month to month than previously.
This is because the new procedure does not
specifically control for “whites” or for “other non­
whites.” These changes were made to avoid dif­
ferences between the CPS and the 1980 census in the
classification of persons as white, black, and other.
Tabulations show a much higher proportion of
persons who classified themselves as “other” in the
1980 census than in the CPS.

First-stage ratio estimate. Ip the CPS, a portion
of the 629 sample areas is chosen to represent other
areas not in the sample; the remainder of the sample
areas represent only themselves. The first-stage
ratio estimation procedure was dedigned to reduce
the portion of the variance resulting from requiring
sample areas to represent nonsample areas.
Therefore, this procedure is not applied to sample
areas which represent only themselves. The pro­
cedure is performed at two geographic levels: First,
by the four census regions (Northeast, North Cen­
tral, South, and West), and second, for each of the
46 States which contains nonsample areas. The pro­
cedure corrects for the differences that existed at
the time of the 1970 census between the distribution
by race and residence of the population in the sam­
ple areas and the known race-residence distribution
in the portions of the census region or State
represented by these areas. The regional adjustment
is performed by metropolitan-nonmetropolitan
residence and race, while the State adjustment is
done by urban-rural status and race.

The controls by State for the civilian noninstitutional
population 16 years and over are an arithmetic extrapo­
lation of the trend in the growth of this segment of the
population from the April 1, 1980, census through the
latest available July 1 estimate, adjusted as a last step
to a current estimate of the U.S. population of this
group.
Beginning with the January 1982 estimates, the inde­
pendent national controls used for the age-sex-race
groups in the final step of the second-stage ratio adjust­
ment are prepared by carrying forward the April 1,
1980, total population by age, race, and sex, taking ac­
count of the subsequent aging of the population, fertil­
ity, mortality, and net immigration, and then subtrac­
ting the estimate for the institutional population and
Armed Forces. (The April 1, 1980, total population was
computed by adding together the resident population,
consistent with that published for the 1980 census in
Advance Reports, Series PHC80-V, and the Armed
Forces overseas, as compiled from Department of De­
fense reports.)
Data on births and deaths between April 1, 1980, and
the estimate date are based on tabulations of vital sta­
tistics for the resident population made by the National
Center for Health Statistics and data on deaths of mili­
tary personnel overseas from the Department of De­
fense. Estimates of net civilian immigration are based
on data provided by the Immigration and Naturaliza­
tion Service, the Department of Defense, the Office of
Personnel Management, and the Puerto Rico Planning
Board. The civilian noninstitutional population is deri­
ved by subtracting the Armed Forces and the institu­
tional population for the estimate date from the total
including Armed Forces overseas. The institutional
population is computed by applying institutional pro­
portions derived from the 1980 census to the total popu­
lation, including Armed Forces overseas for the esti­
mate date. All computations described above are per­
formed in cells defined by single year of age, race, and
sex. The independent national control totals are then
obtained by collapsing these cells into broader age
groups for the population 16 years and older for use in

Second-stage ratio estimate, (n this stage, the
sample proportions of persons in specific categories
are adjusted to the distribution of independent cur­
rent estimates of the civilian noninstitutional
population in the same categories. The second-stage
ratio adjustment is performed to further reduce
variability of the estimates and to correct to some
extent for CPS undercoverage relative to the decen­
nial census. Prior to January 1982, the second-stage
procedure was performed in three steps. In the first
step, estimates were adjusted within each State and
the District of Columbia to an independent control
for the population 16 years and over for the State.
The second step, often referred to as the “in­
termediate second-stage adjustment,” involved
“nonwhite” persons only and was an adjustment to
independent estimates of 48 “nonwhite” age-sexrace categories across the whole Nation. Two race
categories were used—black and “other” minority
races. The final step, applied to all sample persons,
was an adjustment to nationwide independent
population estimates within 34 age-sex-groups each
for white and “nonwhite” persons. The entire
second-stage adjustment procedure was iterated six
times to ensure that the sample estimates of the
population for both State and national age-sex-race
categories were virtually equal to the independent
population control totals. Beginning with January
1982 data, the intermediate step of the second-stage
adjustment has been discontinued, and the race
categories of the final step have been changed from
white/nonwhite to black/nonblack. These changes
in the second-stage adjustment are expected to have

these tables are to be used for the characteristics as
indicated.
Illustration. Assume that in a given month the num­
ber of persons working a specific number of hours was
12.000. 000, an increase of 400,000 over the previous
month. Linear interpolation in the second column of
table B shows that the standard error on an estimate of
12.000. 000 is about 150,000. The 68-percent confidence
interval as shown by these data is from 11,850,000 to
12.150.000. Therefore, a conclusion that the average es­
timate derived from all possible samples lies within a
range computed in this way would be correct for
roughly 68 percent of all possible samples. Recall that
the standard error of a month-to-month change is pri­
marily dependent on the size of the monthly estimate.
Thus, using linear interpolation in the first column of
table C, the standard error on a month-to-month change
of 400,000, when the monthly level is approximately
12.000. 000, is about 111,000.
Standard errors for rates and percentages. The reliabil­
ity of an estimated unemployment rate or an estimated
percentage computed using sample data for both nu­
merator and denominator depends on both the size of
the rate or percentage and the total upon which the
rate or percentage is based. Estimated rates and per­
centages are relatively more reliable than the corre­
sponding estimates of the numerator of the rates or per­
centages; this is particularly true for percentages of 50
percent or more. As a general rule, percentages are not
published when the monthly base is less than 75,000,
the quarterly average base is less than 60,000, or the
annual average base is less than 35,000.
Tables D and E show generalized standard errors for
monthly level and month-to-month change for un­
employment rates. Generalized standard errors for es­
timated monthly percentages and estimated month-tomonth change in percentages can be obtained through
the use of the standard errors in table F and the factors
in table G. First obtain the standard error from table F
for the specific percentage and base. The generalized
standard error is then calculated by multiplying the
standard error from table F by the appropriate factor
from table G. When the numerator and denominator of
the percentage are in different categories, use the fac­
tor indicated by the numerator of the percentage.
Illustration. Assume that in a given month 3.6 percent
of a total of 90,771,000 employed persons are employed
in agriculture. The standard error on an estimate of 3.6
percent with a base of 90,771,000 is obtained from ta­
ble F (0.09 percent). The appropriate factor from table
G for the numerator of the percentage, agricultural em­
ployment, is 1.26. The generalized standard error on
the estimated 3.6 percent is then approximately 0.09 x



793

1.26 = 0.1 percentage point.
Standard errors for year-to-year change of monthly esti­
mates, quarterly averages, changes in quarterly averages,
yearly averages, and changes in yearly averages. The ap­
proximate standard errors of levels, rates, and percent­
ages involving year-to-year change of monthly esti­
mates, quarterly averages, changesJn quarterly aver­
ages, yearly averages, and changes in yearly averages
may be obtained by using table H in conjunction with
the other tables. Standard errors for estimates of change
are more closely related to the level of the estimate
than to the size of the specific change. Thus, to obtain
the standard error of an estimate of an average level,
rate, or percentage, or an estimate of a change in level,
rate, or percentage, it is first necessary to find the ap­
propriate estimate of level. For an estimate of an aver­
age level, rate, or percentage, find the standard error
of this estimate. For an estimate of change in level, rate,
or percentage, find the standard error of the average
of the two estimates affecting the change. Then, after
computing the standard error by treating these estimates
as monthly estimates and using the procedures above,
multiply this result by a suitable factor from table H to
obtain the approximate standard error for the average
or change.
Illustration. Suppose that one is interested in the yearto-year change of a monthly unemployment rate. As­
sume that for a certain month the unemployment rate
is 6.9 percent, based on a total of 95,676,000 in the ci­
vilian labor force, and that a year prior to this the un­
employment rate was 6.1 percent, based on a total of
94,254,000 in the civilian labor force. The standard er­
ror on the average of the two estimates, 6.5 percent
with a base of 94,965,000, is obtained from table D (0.11
percent). The appropriate factor then from table H is
1.40. The appioximate standard error on the change of
0.8 percent is then given by 0.11 x 1.40 = 0.15 percent­
age point.
Seasonal Adjustment

Over the course of a year, the size of the Nation’s
labor force, the levels of employment and unemploy­
ment, and other measures of labor market activity
undergo sharp fluctuations due to such seasonal events
as changes in weather, reduced or expanded produc­
tion, harvests, major holidays, and the opening and clos­
ing of schools. Because these seasonal events follow a
more or less regular pattern each year, their influence
on statistical trends can be eliminated by adjusting the
statistics from month to month. These adjustments make
it easier to observe the cyclical and other nonseasonal
movements in the series. In evaluating changes in a sea­
sonally adjusted series, it is important to note that sea­

sonal adjustment is merely an approximation based on
past experience. Seasonally adjusted estimates have a
broader margin of possible error than the original data
on which they are based, since they are subject not
only to sampling and other errors but are also affected
by the uncertainties of the seasonal adjustment process
itself. Seasonally adjusted series for selected labor force
data are published regularly in Employment and
Earnings.
The seasonal adjustment program used for labor force
series is an adaptation of the standard ratio-to-moving
average method. It provides for moving adjustment fac­
tors to take account of changing seasonal patterns. For
a number of years, BLS has used the X-ll procedure
which was originally developed at the Bureau of the
Census to seasonally adjust labor force data. A detailed
description of the method is given in The X-ll Variant
of the Census Method II Seasonal Adjustment Program,
Technical Paper No. 15, Bureau of the Census (1967).
Beginning in January 1980, BLS introduced two ma­
jor modifications in the seasonal adjustment methodol­
ogy. First, the data are being seasonally adjusted with
a new procedure called X-ll ARIMA, which was de­
veloped at Statistics Canada as an extension of the ex­
isting standard X-ll method. A detailed description of
the procedure appears in The X-ll ARIMA Seasonal
Adjustment Method, by Estela Bee Dagum (Statistics
Canada, February 1980). Tests have shown that use of
the X-ll ARIMA procedure, which places more em­
phasis on recent data, provides better seasonal adjust­
ments than does the X-ll method alone.
The second change is that seasonal factors are now
being calculated for use during the first 6 months of
the year rather than for the entire year. In July of each
year, BLS calculates and publishes in Employment and
Earnings a new set of seasonal factors for use in the
second half, based on the experience through June. Re­
visions of historical data for the most recent 5 years are
made at the beginning of each calendar year. However,
as a result of the revisions to the estimates for 1970-81
based on 1980 census population counts, revisions to
seasonally adjusted series in early 1982 were carried
back to 1970.
Revised data for the 1970-81 period for a broad range
of labor force series were initially published in the Feb­
ruary 1982 issue of Employment and Earnings. These
and many additional series from the time of their in­
ception appear on a monthly and quarterly basis in the
D and E sections, respectively, of this bulletin.
All civilian labor force and unemployment rate sta­
tistics, as well as the major employment and unemploy­
ment estimates, are computed by aggregating independ­
ently adjusted series. For example, for each of the three
major labor force components—agricultural employ­
ment, nonagricultural employment, and unemploy­
ment—data for four sex-age groups (males and females



794

under and over 20 years of age) are separately adjusted
for seasonal variation and are then added to derive sea­
sonally adjusted total figures. In order to provide sea­
sonally adjusted total employment and civilian labor
force estimates, the appropriate series are aggregated.
The official unemployment rate for all civilian workers
is derived by dividing the estimate for total unemploy­
ment (the sum of 4 seasonally adjusted sex-age compo­
nents) by the civilian labor force (the sum of 12 sea­
sonally adjusted sex-age components). Because of the
independent seasonal adjustment of various series, com­
ponents will not necessarily add to totals. The current
seasonal adjustment methodology is described in greater
detail in “Revision of Seasonally Adjusted Labor Force
Series,” in the February 1982 issue of Employment and
Earnings.
Comparability of the CPS with
Related Data
Establishment survey employment statistics

Employment data from the CPS differ in several ba­
sic respects from the related series derived from pay­
roll reports from business establishments. The house­
hold survey provides information on the labor force
activity of the entire civilian noninstitutional population
16 years of age and over, without duplication, since
each individual is classified as either employed, un­
employed, or not in the labor force. The estimate of
employed persons in nonagricultural industries includes,
in addition to wage and salary workers, a number of
groups who would not appear on establishment pay­
rolls: The self-employed, private household workers,
and unpaid workers who worked 15 hours or more
during the survey week in family-operated enterprises.
Also included are persons with a job but not at work
during the survey week because of illness, bad weather,
vacation, labor-management disputes, or various per­
sonal reasons, whether or not paid for the time absent.
The establishment survey estimates of nonagricultural
employment relate to the number of paid wage and
salary employees, regardless of age, on employer pay­
rolls. Employees who appear on more than one payroll
during the survey period are counted separately for
each appearance. In the CPS, dual jobholders are
counted only once and are classified according to the
job at which they worked the greatest number of hours
during the survey week. For a comprehensive discus­
sion of the conceptual and definitional differences be­
tween the two surveys, see “Comparing Employment
Estimates From Household and Payroll Surveys” in the
December 1969 issue of the Monthly Labor Review.
Agricultural employment estimates from the U.S.
Department of Agriculture

The Department of Agriculture estimates, unlike the

CPS, include persons under 16 years of age and count
persons more than once if they work on more than one
farm during the reporting period.

Establishment survey estimates of hours and
earnings

Unemployment insurance data

The household survey measures hours actually
worked during the survey week. For persons working
more than one job, the figures relate to the number of
hours worked in all jobs. However, all the hours are
credited to the primary job. Persons with a job but not
at work are excluded from the hours distributions and
the computations of average hours. The payroll survey
measures paid hours of production or nonsupervisory
workers in the private nonagricultural economy. Em­
ployees on paid vacation, paid holiday, or paid sick
leave are included and assigned the number of hours
for which they were paid during the reporting period.
With respect to weekly and hourly earnings, data from
the establishment survey cover only production and
nonsupervisory workers in private nonagricultural es­
tablishments. The CPS weekly earnings data generally
cover wage and salary workers who usually work full
time, including supervisory and managerial workers in
all industries. The CPS hourly earnings data are re­
stricted to workers paid hourly rates, but coverage in­
cludes both full- and part-time workers. A fuller dis­
cussion of differences between the CPS and establish­
ment survey data on earnings appears in Weekly and




795

The CPS unemployment data include all persons who
did not have a job 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, whether or
not they were eligible for unemployment insurance.
Figures on unemployment insurance claims exclude per­
sons who have exhausted their benefit rights, new
workers who have not earned rights to unemployment
insurance, and persons losing jobs not covered by un­
employment insurance systems (self-employed and un­
paid family workers, and some workers in agriculture,
domestic services, and religious organizations). In ad­
dition, the qualifications for drawing unemployment
compensation differ from the definition of unemploy­
ment used in the household survey. For example, per­
sons with a job but not at work and persons working
only a few hours during the week are sometimes eligi­
ble for unemployment compensation but are classified
as employed rather than as unemployed in the house­
hold survey. For an examination of the similarities and
differences between State insured unemployment and
total unemployment, see “Measuring Total and State
Insured Unemployment” in the June 1971 issue of the
Monthly Labor Review.
