This bulletin on marital and family patterns of
workers in 1981 is part of the Special Labor Force
Reports series. It discusses over-the-year changes in
labor force activity of women and men and family earn
ings. This article was first published in the Monthly
Labor Review, May 1982, and is reprinted with addi
tional tabular material and explanatory notes.
The data were compiled from supplementary ques
tions to the March 1981 Current Population Survey
conducted and tabulated by the Bureau of the
Census for the Bureau of Labor Statistics. The data for
1980 were rerun from the March 1980 CPS using 1980
census population weights. Therefore, the 1980 data in
this report may differ from that previously published.
Material in this publication is in the public domain

A record 18.4 million women with children under
age 18 were in the labor force in March 1981, includ
ing nearly half of all mothers with preschool children.
The high level indicates the continuing impact that
women of the “baby boom” generation are having on
the job market. Now in their 20’s and early 30’s, many
of these women are returning to work while their chil
dren are still infants. This is also one reason why today
every other married-couple family is in the dual-earner
category.1

Over-the-year changes
Wives. Labor force changes during the 12 months end
ing with March 1981 were typical of those that have
been observed in recent years in connection with the en
try or re-entry into the job market of women born after
World War II. About 25.5 million wives, or 51 percent,
were working or looking for work in March, 560,000
above the previous year’s level. More than 2 of 3 of
these net additions were mothers, and most of them had
children under 6 years old. (See table 1 and 2.)
The rise in the number and proportion of working
mothers, especially those with preschool children, is
partly related to a small rebound in births among wom
en 20 to 34 years old.2During the 1970’s, women in this
age group tended to delay marriage and >postpone
childbearing, often acquiring lengthy job experience and
strong ties to the labor force. Now most afe married

and many are having children. But, unlike the preceding
generation of mothers whose early marriage and
childbearing was followed by prolonged withdrawal
from the labor force,3 women are now either remaining
in the work force or returning to it shortly after
childbirth.
Reflecting these events, the labor force participation
rate of wives with preschool children increased from
45 percent in March 1980 to nearly 48 percent a year
later. Even though there was no change in their partici-

Race and Hispanic origin. Although white wives are still
less likely to be in the labor force than black ones, their
participation rate has been rising faster in recent years,
narrowing the difference between the two groups. By
March 1981, more than 50 percent of white wives and
nearly 60 percent of black wives were in the work force.
Ten years earlier, the proportions were about 40 and 53
percent. In contrast, the participation rate, for white
husbands and black husbands were nearly identical;
both rates have declined by roughly 6 percentage points
since March 1971.
Hispanic men were more apt than whites or blacks to
be in the labor force regardless of their marital catego
ry. This is partly because Hispanic men are, on average,
younger; in March 1981, their median age (for those 16
years and over) was 32.1 years, compared with 34 years
for blacks and 38 years for whites. In contrast to the
men, Hispanic women traditionally have had lower par
ticipation rates than whites or blacks.4(See table 3.)

Children are defined as “ own” children. Included are never-married daughters or sons,
stepchildren, and adopted children. Excluded, are; other related children such as
grandchildren, nieces, nephews, and cousins, and unrelated children.

Earners, income, and poverty
During the past decade, the dramatic increase in the
proportion of working wives has led to substantial gains
in the number of married-couple families where both
spouses were earners during the same year. In 1980,
there were approximately 25.6 million such dual-earner
families, 25 percent more than in 1970.5 Over the same
period, the traditional-earner family (married-couple
families where the husband, but not the wife, was an
earner) declined in importance— falling from 44 percent
of all married couples in 1970 to less than 31 percent in
1980.6
However, despite the ongoing rise in the number of
pation rate, divorced mothers (regardless of their youn
gest child’s age) remained considerably more likely than
mothers in any other marital status category to be in
the labor force. About 78 percent of all divorced moth
ers were working or looking for work in March 1981,
compared with around 60 percent of widowed, separat
ed, or never-married mothers and 56 percent of married
mothers. Even when they were childless, divorced wom
en were more apt to be in the labor force than other
women with no children under age 18.
Single, divorced, and separated persons. Like wives, sin
gle persons also accounted for 25 percent of the labor
force growth over the year ending with March 1981.
The number of single men in the labor force reached
15.8 million while that of single women grew to 11.6
million. These increases were largely because of a rise in
the number of persons in their early 20’s and the con
tinuing tendency among them to delay marriage. The
labor force participation rates: of single men (71 percent)
and of women (62 percent) remained relatively stable.
As was the case for singles, the number of divorced
and separated persons in the labor force rose, primarily
because the divorce rate remained high. The labor force
participation rates of separated and divorced men were
about the same as for husbands (80 percent) while the
rates for divorced (75 percent) and separated (61 per
cent) women continued to be higher than for wives.
In contrast to the other marital groups, the number
of husbands who were working or looking for jobs re
mained steady over the year ending in March 1981. The
participation rate of husbands continued its long-term
downward drift.

wives in the labor force, there was no change in either
the number or proportion of dual-earner families from
1979 to 1980. Several factors interacted to produce this
result. One was the sluggish economic climate that pre
vailed during 1980 which led to greater levels of unem
ployment than in 1979. Another was the continuing
high level of divorces and the consequent breakup of
many married-couple families. Also, the number of mar
ried couples without earners continued its long-term
climb. From 1970 to 1980, the number of married per
sons 65 years and over rose by about a third, and the
number of families with no earners reached 5.9 million.
(See table 4.)
Table 5. Families in poverty in 1980 by family type and
number of earners, March 1981
Income. Overall, median income in 1980 was $23,300
for married-couple families, compared with $10,230 for
families maintained by women and $17,740 for those
maintained by men (no spouse present). A major reason
for the differences is that almost 60 percent of all mar
ried-couple families contained at least two earners, com
pared with 28 percent of the families maintained by
women and 42 percent of those maintained by men.
(This is not the entire explanation; even when there
were two earners or more, families maintained by men
or women had lower median annual incomes.)7Who the
earners are—husband, wife, children, and so forth—is
also an important determinant of family income. To il
lustrate, median income of married-couple families in
1980 was $20,500 where the husband was the only
earner, but only $13,600 where the wife was the sole
earner. For families with two earners or more, the medi

Poverty. The presence of earners does not guarantee a
family freedom from poverty. In 1980, about 6.4 million,
or 10.5 percent, of the Nation’s families had incomes be
low the poverty level.8These families were approximately
equally divided between married couples (47 percent)
and those maintained by women (49 percent), with rela
tively few maintained by men. (See table 5.)
The majority of married-couple families in poverty
had income from the earnings of one member or more
during 1980. In most of these families, the husband was
an earner, but for an unusually large proportion— 21
percent compared with 6 percent for families not in
poverty— the earner was the wife or some other mem
ber, such as a son or daughter, whose wages were typi
cally lower than those of the husband.
A third of all families maintained by women had
incomes below the poverty level in 1980, with children
in more than four-fifths of them. Less than half of these
families had earnings and only 8 percent contained
more than one earner.
As expected, large families face a greater likelihood of

ers. For instance, among one-earner families in 1980,
about 10 percent with only two members were in pover
ty, compared with 20 percent of five-member families.
The proportions in poverty were less for families with
more than one earner.

some recent data on the
marital-family characteristics of workers. However, the
situation may change under the pressure of demograph
ic and other trends that are already underway. For ex
ample, recent increases in the birth rate indicate that
the number of dual-earner families with young children
will continue to increase. Thus, the need for adequate
child care in the working parents’ absence will probably
expand rather than diminish. In addition, if marital
breakups—currently at record levels— rise, the demand
for child care will grow even further as the number of
one-parent families increases.

' Unless otherwise indicated, data are based on tabulations from the
March 1981 Current Population Survey (CPS), conducted for the Bu
reau of Labor Statistics by the Bureau of the Census. The data have
been inflated using population weights based on results from the 1980
Census of the Population. The March 1980 data discussed in this re
port also have been revised to bring them in line with the new popu
lation weights and to make them comparable with the March 1981
data. Previously published 1980 data (as they appear in Beverly L.
Johnson and Elizabeth Waldman, “Marital and family patterns,”
M o n th ly L a b o r R e v ie w , October 1981, pp. 36-38) reflected population
weights projected forward from the 1970 Census of the Population.
As shown in table 1, the number of married women in the labor
force in March 1980 was revised upward by 434,000. Despite this,
and similarly significant changes in other data for 1980, the various
relationships and percentages based on new estimates are nearly the
same as those based on previously published estimates.
For a more complete description of changes in labor force data
stemming from the use of 1980 census population weights in the CPS,

Estimates based on a sample, such as those shown in the tables,
may vary considerably from results obtained by a complete count in
those cases where the numbers are small. Therefore, differences based
on them may not be significant. For more detail on the interpretation

Appendix A„ Explanatory Note
C h ild ren . Data on children refer to “own” children of
the husband, wife, or person maintaining the family and
include sons and daughters, stepchildren, and adopted
children. Excluded are other related children, such as
grandchildren, nieces, nephews, and cousins, and
unrelated children.
Estimates in this bulletin are based on supplementary
questions in the March 1981 and 1980 Current Popula
tion Survey conducted and tabulated for the Bureau of
Labor Statistics by the Bureau of the Census. Basic
labor force concepts, sample design, estimating
methods, and reliability of the data are described briefly
in the following sections.1
The age classification is based on the age of the
person at his/her last birthday.
A ge.
Definitions and Concepts
In March 1980 and 1981, trained
interviewers collected information from a sample of
about 65,000 households in 629 areas in 1,133 counties
and independent cities with coverage in every State and
the District of Columbia. Estimates in this bulletin in
clude persons 16 years old and over in the civilian
noninstitutional population in the calendar week ended
March 14, 1981. Male members of the Armed Forces
living off post or with their families on post (817,000 in
March 1981) were also included, but all other members
of the Armed Forces were excluded.
P o p u la tio n coverage.
The population is divided into three groups on the
basis of race: White, black, and “ other races.” The last
category includes Indians, Japanese, Chinese, and any
other race except white and black.
R a ce .
Persons of Hispanic origin in this
report are those persons who indicated that their origin
was Mexican, Puerto Rican, Cuban, Central or South
American, or some other Hispanic origin. The latter
category includes persons from Spain as well as persons
with combinations of types of Spanish origins. Persons
who reported that they were of one of the specific
Hispanic-origin categories and a non-Hispanic category
were included in the specific category. Persons of
Hispanic origin may be of any race.
H isp a n ic origin.
Persons are classified into the following
categories according to their marital status at the time of
interview: Single; married, spouse present; and other
marital status. The classification “married, spouse pres
ent,” applies to husband and wife if both are reported
as members of the same household even though one
may be temporarily absent on business, vacation, on a
visit, in a hospital, and the like at the time of interview.
The term “other marital status” applies to persons who
are married, spouse absent, widowed, or divorced.
M a r ita l s ta tu s.
Employed persons are all those who during
the survey week (a) did any work at all as paid
employees or in their own business or profession, or on
their own farm, or worked 15 hours or more as unpaid
workers in an enterprise operated by a member of the
family; or (b) did not work but had jobs or businesses
from which they were temporarily absent because of
illness, bad weather, vacations, labor-management
dispute, or personal reasons, whether or not they were
paid by their employers for the time off, or were seek
ing other jobs.
E m p lo y e d .
A family is a group of two or more persons
residing together who are related by blood, marriage, or
adoption. The number of families as shown in this
report includes both primary families and unrelated
subfamilies. A primary family includes among its
members the married couple or person maintaining the
household and all other related individuals within the
household. An unrelated subfamily includes no
members related to the person or persons maintaining
the household and may include lodgers, guests, or resi
dent employees.
F a m ily .
U n e m p lo y e d . Unemployed persons are all those who
did not work during the survey week, made specific ef
forts to find a job within the preceding 4 weeks, and
were available for work during the survey week or
would have been available except for temporary illness.
Also included as unemployed are those who did not
work at all, were available for work, and (a) were
waiting to be called back to a job from which they had
been laid off, or (b) were waiting to report to a new
wage .or salary job within 30 days.

not living in the same household, net royalties, and
other periodic income. The amount received represents
income before deductions for personal taxes, social
security, savings bonds, union dues, health insurance,
and the like. The total income of a family is the
algebraic sum of the amount received by all persons in
the family.
Labor force. The labor force comprises all persons
classified as employed or unemployed according to the
above definitions.
N ot in the labor force. All persons not classified as
employed or unemployed are defined as “ not in the
labor force.” Persons doing only incidental, unpaid
family work (less than 15 hours) are also classified as
not in the civilian labor force.
Earnings. 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.
Full-time and part-time workers. Full-time workers are
persons who worked 35 hours or more during the survey
week, or who usually work full time but worked 1 to 34
hours during the survey week. Part-time workers are
those who usually work 1 to 34 hours and worked 1 to
34 hours during the survey week. Persons with a job but
not at work during the survey week are classified ac
cording to whether they usually work full or part time.
Median. The median is the value which divides the
distribution into two equal parts; one part having values
above the median, and the other having values below
the median.
The medians as shown in this bulletin are calculated
from the corresponding distributions by linear inter
polation within the interval in which the median falls.
Therefore, because of this interpolation, the median
value depends not only on the distribution of income
but also on the income intervals used in calculating the
median.
Work experience. Persons with work experience are
those who worked as civilians at any time during the
preceding calendar year at full-time or part-time jobs.
Weeks worked. Persons with work experience are
classified according to the number of weeks in which
they did any work during the preceding calendar year as
civilians for pay or profit (including paid vacations and
sick leave) or worked without pay on a family-operated
farm or business.
Sums o f distribution. Sums of individual items, whether
absolute numbers or percentages, may not equal totals
because of independent rounding of totals and com
ponents. Percentage totals, however, are always shown
as 100 percent.
Reliability of the estimates
Year-round full-tim e workers. Year-round full-time
workers are persons who worked primarily at full-time
jobs for 50 weeks or more during the preceding calendar
year.
Estimating procedure. The estimating procedure used
in this survey inflates weighted sample results to in
dependent estimates of the civilian noninstitutional
population by age, sex, and race. These independent
estimates are based on statistics from the 1980 Census of
Population and other data on births, deaths, immigra
tion, emigration, and strength of the Armed Forces. To
these figures were added the male members of the Arm
ed Forces living off post or with their families on post.
Part-year workers. Part-year workers are persons who
worked either full time or part time for 1 to 49 weeks
during the preceding calendar year.
Occupation, industry, and class o f worker. Data on oc
cupation, industry, and class of worker refer to the job
held in the survey week. Persons with two jobs or more
are classified in the job at which they worked the
greatest number of hours in the survey week. The oc
cupation and industry categories in this bulletin are the
major groups used in the 1970 Census of Population.
Variability. Since the estimates are based on a sample,
they may differ somewhat from the figures that would
have been obtained if a complete census had been taken
using the same schedules and procedures. As in any
survey, the results are also subject to errors of response
and reporting. These may be relatively large in the case
of persons with irregular attachment to the labor force.
Particular care should be exercised in the interpretation
of figures based on relatively small estimates as well as
small differences between estimates.
The standard error is primarily a measure of sampling
variability, that is, of the variations that might occur by
chance because a sample rather than the entire popula
tion is surveyed. As calculated for this bulletin, the
Income. Income is 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
6
standard error also partially measures the effect of
response and enumeration errors but does not measure
any systematic biases in the data. The chances are about
68 out of 100 that an estimate differs from a complete
census by less than the standard error. The chances are
about 95 out of 100 that the difference would be less
than twice the standard error.
tors must be applied to the standard errors in order to
adjust for the combined effect of sample design and
estimating procedure on the value of the characteristic.
The determination of the proper factor for a percentage
depends upon the subject matter of the numerator of
the percentage, not the denominator.
The following examples illustrate the use of the
standard error tables. An estimated 25,460,000 married
women, husband present, were in the labor force in
March 1981. Two steps, using both tables A-l and A-3
are required to derive an estimate of the standard error
for this figure. First, from table A -l, a preliminary
estimate of the error (278,000) is found by interpola
tion. Next, this estimate is multiplied by the factor 1.0
from tablg A-3. Thus, the chances are about 68 out of
100 that the difference between the sample estimate and
a complete census count would be less than 278,000.
The chances are about 95 out of 100 that the difference
would be less than 556,000. The 25,460,000 married
women represented 51.0 percent of all married women
in the population. The standard error for this percent is
found by multiplying the standard error (0.4) from table
A-2 by the appropriate factor from table A-3 (1.0): 0.4 x
1.0 = 0.4. Thus, the chances are 68 out of 100 that a
complete census count would have resulted in a figure
between 51.4 and 50.6 percent, and 95 out of 100 that
the figure would have been between 51.8 and 50.2.
Note when using small estimates. Nummary measures
(such as medians, means, and percent distributions) are
shown in this bulletin only when the base of the
measure is 75,000 or greater. Because of the large stand
ard errors involved, there is little chance that summary
measures would reveal useful information when com
puted on a smaller base. Estimated numbers are shown,
however, even though the relative standard errors of
these numbers are larger than those for corresponding
percentages. These smaller estimates are provided
primarily to permit such combinations of the categories
as serve each user’s needs.
Computation o f standard errors. Tptie figures presented
in tables A-l and A-2 provide approximations of the
standard errors of estimated numbers and percentages.
Standard errors for intermediate values may be found
by interpolation. Estimated standard errors for specific
characteristics cannot be obtained from tables A-l and
A-2 without the use of factors in table A-3. These fac

NOTE: The number in the labor force and the labor force participation rates and
