1962 Statistical Supplement
Preface
This publication—the third annual statistical supplement to the Monthly
Labor Review—includes data for 1962 from all of the major statistical programs
of the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Publications describing the methods used
in compiling the series, as well as current analyses of the data, are listed in
the bibliography. An appendix tells how to obtain current information on
these and other BLS statistics.
With the exceptions noted, the series here are compiled by the Bureau of
Labor Statistics and cover the United States without Alaska and Hawaii.
Most oi the figures are rounded, and the sums of individual items may not
equal totals for this reason.

1 Figures are not comparable with those published in the M o n t h l y L a b o r
R e v i e w prior to the October 1963 issue.
The industry series have been
adjusted to March 1962 benchmarks (comprehensive counts of employment).
For details see, “N ew Benchmark Levels for BLS Establishment Employ
m ent Estimates,” appearing in the September 1963 Annual Supplement
issue of j E m p l o y m e n t a n d E a r n i n g s . For comparable back data, see E m p l o y
m e n t a n d E a r n i n g s S t a ti s ti c s f o r th e U n it e d S ta te s , 1 9 0 9 -6 8 (BLS Bulletin
1312-1). Statistics from April 1962 forward are subject to further revision
when new benchmarks become available.
Establishments are classified, on the basis of their principal product or
activity as determined from information on annual sales volume, into
industries or industry groups as defined in the 1957 S ta n d a r d I n d u s t r i a l
C l a s s if ic a t io n M a n u a l .

These series are based upon establishment reports which cover all full- and
part-time employees in nonagricultural establishments who worked during,
or received pay for, any part of the pay period ending nearest the 15th of the
m onth. Therefore, persons who worked in more than 1 establishment during
the reporting period are counted more than once. Proprietors, self-employed
persons, unpaid family workers, and domestic servants are excluded.
2 Data relate to civilian employees who worked on or received pay for, the
last day of the month.
3 State and local government data exclude, as nominal employees, elected
officials of small local units and paid volunteer firemen.

Figures are not comparable with those published in the M o n t h l y L a b o r
prior to the October 1963 issue.
Month-to-month changes in total employment in manufacturing and non
manufacturing industries as indicated by labor turnover rates are not com
parable with the changes shown by the Bureau’s employment series for the
following reasons: (1) the labor turnover series measures changes during the
calendar month, while the employm ent series measures changes from m id
month to midmonth; and (2) the turnover series excludes personnel changes

Beginning with January 1959, transfers between establishments of the
same firm are included in total accessions and total separations; therefore,
rates for these items are not strictly comparable with prior data. Transfers
comprise part of other accessions and other separations, the rates for which
are not shown separately.

1 For comparability of data with those published in issues prior to October
1963 and coverage of these series, see footnote 1, table 1-7.
Spendable average weekly earnings are based on gross average weekly
earnings as published in table I II-l, less the estimated amount of the workers ’
Federal social security and income tax liability. Since the amount of tax
liability depends on the number of dependents supported by the worker as
https://fraser.stlouisfed.org
Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis
well as on the level of his gross income, spendable earnings have been com
puted for two types of income receivers: (1) a worker with no dependents,
and (2) a worker with 3 dependents.
The earnings expressed in 1957-59 dollars have been adjusted for changes
in purchasing power as measured by the Bureau’s Consumer Price Index.

1 Basic salary scales reflect only statutory changes in salaries.
Average salary rates show, in addition, the effect of merit or in-grade salary
increases.
Average salaries measure the effect not only of statutory changes in basic
pay scales and in-grade salary increases, but also the effect of changes in the
proportion of workers employed in the various pay grades.
2 Data for Classification Act and Crafts, Protective, and Custodial employ
ees have been incorporated into the General Schedule indexes. Since July
1, 1955, the General Schedule has covered all Classification Act employees.
At that time, about one-third of the approximately 100,000 employees formerely covered by the Crafts, Protective, and Custodial schedule were

transferred to the General Schedule; the remaining two-thirds were trans
ferred to wage-board classifications along with approximately 2,500 workers
formerly under the General Schedule. There were o n ly minor differences
among the indexes-in the years prior to 1955.
2 Estimated by assuming the same distribution of employees among grades
and steps within grades in 1945 as in 1939. Since there was little or no in
crease in average rates because of in-grade increases during this period, it
was assumed that the change in basic salary scales was virtually the same as
in average salary rates.

every month. For other items, except where noted, indexes are calculated
every 3 months, based on prices in 19 cities surveyed in March, June, Sep
tember, and December.

3 The total number of work injuries in agriculture is based on cross-section
surveys by the U.S. Department of Agriculture in 1947 and 1948, with ad
justments for changes in employment. These are considered to be minimum
figures; injuries experienced in performing chores are excluded, and there
are some indications of underreporting.
4 Based largely on data compiled by the Bureau of Mines, U.S. Depart
ment of the Interior.
3 Based on small sample surveys by the Bureau of Labor Statistics.

8 Based on surveys as indicated by footnotes 3 to 7 and on vital statistics
reports.
9 Includes approximately 1,300 to 1,500 permanent-total impairments
each year.
10 Includes data for industries not shown separately.
N o t e : Data for Alaska and Hawaii are included, beginning with 1959.
This adjustment added about 10,000 to the total number of disabling injuries.
