Employment andUnemployment Developments,September 1980
Employment rose slightly in September, andunemployment edged down. The unemployment ratewas 7.5 percent in September, compared with 7.6 per-cent in August and 7.8 percent in July.
Total employment—as measured by the monthlysurvey of households—was up by 200,000 to 97.2million. Nonfarm payroll employment—as measured bythe monthly survey of establishments—also rose byabout 200,000 in September. The factory workweek in-creased for the second straight month.
UnemploymentThe Nation's unemployment rate was 7.5 percent in
September, down from the rates that prevailed over theMay-July period. From August to September,unemployment declined among adult women, whoserate dropped 0.4 percentage point to 6.1 percent, andteenagers, whose rate was down from 19.1 to 17.5 per-cent. The unemployment rate for adult men, in con-trast, was about unchanged at 6.7 percent. The joblessrate for white workers was down over the month to 6.5percent, while the rate for black and other workers, at14.2 percent, has fluctuated around 14 percent sinceMay. The unemployment rate for Hispanics continuedto edge up, reaching 11.3 percent. (See tables A-33 andA-35.)
The rate for white-collar workers was unchanged overthe month, while there were improvements among blue-collar, service, and farm workers. Among the major in-dustry divisions, unemployment rates for workers inconstruction (16.5 percent) and agriculture (10.9 per-cent) fell substantially following large increases in theprevious month. (See table A-36.)
The number of persons unemployed declined by near-ly 200,000 in September to 7.8 million. The number onlayoff increased but was still below the level registeredin the May-July period. The median duration ofjoblessness, at 8.2 weeks, increased for the fourthmonth in a row; there was a decrease in the number ofpersons unemployed less than 5 weeks and an increase inthe other duration categories. (See tables A-37 andA-39.)
Total employment and the labor forceTotal employment rose by 200,000 in September to
97.2 million. An increase in agriculture accounted forthe gain, as employment in this industry did not registerthe normal seasonal decline. (On a not seasonally-adjusted basis, agricultural employment was unchangedover the month.) Although total employment has in-creased by 670,000 since June, this gain was insufficientto offset the decline which took place during the firsthalf of 1980, leaving employment some 750,000 belowits February peak. Similarly, the employment-population ratio was up slightly from June but, at 58.3percent in September, was still a full point lower than inFebruary.
Contrasting over-the-month movements occurredamong the major demographic and occupationalgroups. Teenage employment, which has exhibited con-siderable volatility over the past several months,registered a substantial increase, rebounding to about itsJuly level. There was little August-September change intotal employment among adult men and women. White-collar employment fell, while there was an increaseamong blue-collar workers following eight consecutivemonthly declines; employment among farm workersalso advanced. (See tables A-33 and A-42.)
The civilian labor force was unchanged in Septemberat 105.0 million. Over the past year, the labor force in-creased by 1.3 million, a substantially slower pace thanin recent years. Adult women accounted for most of theyear-to-year growth.
Discouraged workersDiscouraged workers are persons who report that
they want to work but are not looking for jobs becausethey believe they cannot find any. Because they do notmeet the labor market test—that is, they are not engag-ed in active job search—they are classified as not in thelabor force rather than unemployed. Data for this groupare published quarterly. (See table A-53.)
The number of discouraged workers rose slightly inthe third quarter to 970,000. Although women andblacks account for a disproportionately large share ofthe discouraged, the over-the-quarter advance tookplace among men and whites. About 70 percent of thediscouraged cited job-market factors as the reason fortheir discouragement.

Industry payroll employmentThe number of employees on nonagricultural
payrolls rose by 185,000 in September, the second con-secutive monthly increase. The 2-month gain totaled430,000, as payroll jobs reached 90.3 million, still900,000 below the February peak. Growth waswidespread in both the goods- and service-producingsectors, with more than 60 percent of the 172 industriesin the BLS diffusion index of private nonfarm employ-ment registering over-the-month gains. (See tables B-4and B-7.)
Manufacturing employment also rose for the secondmonth in a row. The September increase of 55,000brought the factory employment total to 20 million, still1 million below its year-ago level. Unlike August, nearlyall of the September increase occurred in the durablegoods sector. Gains were especially marked in primaryand fabricated metals and transportation equipment.Only machinery posted a notable decline. Employmentgains in several of the nondurable industries, including apickup in rubber and plastic products, were offset by adecrease of 30,000 in food processing.
Elsewhere in the goods-producing sector, construc-tion employment rose by 45,000, while a slight increasein mining was due entirely to strikers returning to theirjobs.
Employment in the service-producing sector con-tinued the modest growth of recent months, as theSeptember total of 64.9 million exceeded its previouspeak reached in April. Growth was once again concen-trated in retail trade (45,000) and services (80,000).Federal government employment declined for the fifthmonth in a row, as the 1980 Decennial Census collectionoperation continued to be phased out.
Hours of workThe average workweek for production or nonsuper-
visory workers on private nonfarm payrolls edged up
0.1 hour to 35.2 hours in September, following an in-crease of 0.2 hour in August. The workweek had declin-ed fairly steadily from the beginning of the year throughJuly. The manufacturing workweek also rose 0.1 hourin September (on top of a 0.4 hour increase in August),while factory overtime was unchanged. (See table C-7.)
The index of aggregate weekly hours of production ornonsupervisory wQrkers on private nonfarm payrollsrose 0.6 percent in September to 123.7 (1967 = 100) as aresult of the rise in both employment and hours. The in-dex was still 2.7 percent below its January peak. Themanufacturing index was up 0.9 percent over themonth. (See table C-8.)
Hourly and weekly earningsAverage hourly earnings of production or nonsuper-
visory workers on private nonfarm payrolls rose 0.4 per-cent over the month and 7.7 percent over the year(seasonally adjusted). Average weekly earnings were up0.7 percent from August and 6.5 percent fromSeptember 1979.
Before adjustment for seasonality, average hourlyearnings rose 10 cents over the month to $6.77 and haverisen 47 cents over the year. Average weekly earningswere $238.98, up $2.19 over the month and $13.44 overthe year. (See tables C-l and C-9.)
The Hourly Earnings IndexThe Hourly Earnings Index—earnings adjusted for
overtime in manufacturing, seasonality, and the effectsof changes in the proportion of workers in high-wageand low-wage industries—was 254.5 (1967 = 100) inSeptember, 0.4 percent higher than in August. The In-dex was 8.6 percent above September a year ago. Indollar of constant purchasing power, the Index decreas-ed 3.1 percent during the 12-month period ended inAugust. (See table C-9.)

New Household SurveyStatistics on Weekly Earnings
*Earl F. Mellor
Quarterly publication of data which relate workers'earnings to the families in which they live begins withthis issue of Employment and Earnings. The accompa-nying tables show the combined wage and salary earn-ings of all family members as well as the earnings of in-dividual workers. Regular collection of these data fromthe Current Population Survey (CPS) began in 1979.
New data seriesFamily earnings data are provided by type of family
(those in which there is a married couple, those main-tained by women, and those maintained by men), thenumber of earners, and the presence of unemployedfamily members (tables 1 and 2). Earnings of in-dividuals by sex, age, race, Hispanic origin, and familyrelationship are provided separately for full- and part-time workers (tables 3 and 4). Earnings by occupationand sex are shown for full-time workers only (table 5).All of these tables show percent changes in earnings ad-justed for changes in prices as measured by the Con-sumer Price Index for Urban Wage Earners and ClericalWorkers (CPI-W). The CPI-W for the most recentquarter is not available at the time Employment andEarnings is published; hence it is necessary to lag thepublication of these tables by 1 quarter.
The family focus of these series is in keeping with theheightened interest in such data as a result of increasesin families with more than one earner and in familiesmaintained by women. By relating information on earn-ings to the family circumstances in which people live,the impact of employment and unemployment oneconomic welfare can be better understood andanalyzed.
The new series is designed to respond to such ques-tions as: How do earnings in families with a singleearner compare with those in which both the husbandand wife work? What are the earnings of families inwhich either the husband or the wife is unemployed?How do the earnings of .women compare with those ofmen? And what are the earnings of black and Hispanicworkers compared with those of whites?
The tables provide some answers. For example, theyshow that in the second quarter of 1980, median wageand salary earnings were 72 percent higher in married-
couple families with multiple earners than in those withone earner. Median earnings of families withunemployed husbands were $171 as contrasted with$307 for families with unemployed wives. Among full-time workers, women earned 63 percent as much asmen. As for blacks and Hispanics, their median earn-ings were about 80 percent of those of whites. The dataalso show that, over the past year, gains in weekly earn-ings for wage and salary workers and their familiesgenerally were outpaced by rising prices. Median weeklyfamily earnings rose from $372 in the second quarter of1979 to $399 in the second quarter of 1980, an increaseof 7.4 percent, but the purchasing power of those earn-ings declined by 6.1 percent.
Comparability with related dataThe new quarterly data are similar to, but not strictly
comparable with, May data on individual earningsderived from the CPS over the 1967-78 period.1 Fordetailed information on the differences between the newand old series, see Technical Description of the Quarter-ly Data on Weekly Earnings from the Current Popula-tion Survey, Report 601 (Bureau of Labor Statistics,July 1980).
Earnings data derived from the CPS cannot be direct-ly compared with earnings data derived from the BLSmonthly survey of business establishments because ofdifferences in the universe and methodology. For exam-ple, the establishment survey is limited to productionworkers in mining and manufacturing, constructionworkers in the construction industry, and nonsuper-visory workers in other private nonagricultural in-
* Earl F. Mellor is an economist in the Division of Labor Force Studies, Officeof Current Employment Analysis, Bureau of Labor Statistics.
1 Data from the old series were published in news releases, articles in the Mon-thly Labor Review, and Special Labor Force Reports. The most recent publica-tion of these data was "Weekly and Hourly Earnings of U.S. Workers,1967-78," by Janice Neipert Hedges and Earl F. Mellor, Monthly Labor Review,August 1979, pp. 31-41. Information on the new earnings series has beenpublished in the following U.S. Department of Labor news releases: USDL80-188, "New Data Relate Workers' Earnings to the Families in Which TheyLive"(March 27, 1980); USDL 80-352, "Earnings of Workers and TheirFamilies: First Quarter 1980" (May 29, 1980); and USDL 80-540, "Earnings ofWorkers and Their Families: Second Quarter 1980" (August 29, 1980).

dustries. In contrast, the CPS covers all wage and salaryworkers. Another difference between the two surveys isthat CPS data are available as distributions and me-dians, while establishment survey data are availableonly in terms of industry means.
Sampling variabilityAs is the case with data from any sample survey, the
new earnings series are subject to both sampling and
nonsampling errors. These two topics are covered indetail in the Explanatory Notes of each issue of Employ-ment and Earnings. Standard errors for earnings-relateditems have different values than those shown foremployment and unemployment. Illustrative standarderrors for median earnings of persons and families areshown in table 6 and standard errors for estimates of thenumber of workers are shown in table J of the Ex-planatory Notes.

1 Data include Alaska and Hawaii beginning 1959. This inclusion has resulted in an in- .Tease of 212,000 (0.4 percent) in nonagricultural total for the March 1959 benchmarknonth.
NOTE: The January through July 1980 issues contained erroneous data for "totaljoods-producing" for 1969 and 1970, and "total service-producing" for 1920-71. Correc-ions have been made in this table.
p = preliminary.
NOTE: Data from April 1979 forward are subject to revision when more recent bench-mark data are introduced. See "Benchmark adjustments" in the Explanatory notes ofthis publication.

NOTE: The hours and earnings averages presented in this table have been computed using datacollected by the Office of Personnel Management from agencies with 2500 or more employees in theExecutive Branch of the Federal Government; the data cover both salaried workers and hourly paidwage-board employees.

visory and nonsupervisory, they are not comparable to similar data presented in table C-2 which relateonly to production or nonsupervisory workers. The total employment levels shown include allworkers in the Executive Branch regardless of the size of the agency.

1 For coverage of series, see footnote 1, lable B-2.2 The index excludes effects of two types of changes that are unrelated to underlying wage-rate
developments: Fluctuations in overtime premiums in manufacturing (the only sector for which overtimedata are available) and the effects of changes in the proportion of workers in high-wage and low-wageindustries.
3 The CPI-W is used to deflate these series to 1967 dollars.
See footnote 1, table B-5.See footnote 2, table C-5.

Explanatory Notes
Introduction
The statistics in this periodical are compiled from two majorsources: (1) Household interviews, and (2) reports from employers.
Data based on household interviews are obtained from a samplesurvey of the population 16 years of age and over. The survey is con-ducted each month by the Bureau of the Census for the Bureau ofLabor Statistics and provides comprehensive data on the labor force,the employed, and the unemployed, including such characteristics asage, sex, race, family relationship, marital status, occupation, and in-dustry attachment. The survey also provides data on thecharacteristics and past work experience of those not in the laborforce. The information is collected by trained interviewers from asample of about 65,000 households, representing 629 areas in 1,133counties and independent cities, with coverage in SO States and theDistrict of Columbia. The data collected are based on the activity orstatus reported for the calendar week including the 12th of the month.
Data based on establishment records are compiled each month frommail questionnaires by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, in cooperationwith State agencies. The establishment survey is designed to provideindustry information on nonagricultural wage and salary employ-ment, average weekly hours, average hourly and weekly earnings, andlabor turnover for the Nation, States, and metropolitan areas. Theemployment, hours, and earnings series are based on payroll reportsfrom a sample of establishments employing over 30 millionnonagricultural wage and salary workers. The data relate to allworkers, full- or part-time, who received pay during the payroll periodwhich includes the 12th day of the month. Based on a somewhatsmaller sample, labor turnover data relate to actions occurring duringthe entire month.
RELATION BETWEEN THE HOUSEHOLD AND ESTABLISH-MENT SERIES
The household and establishment data supplement one another,each providing significant types of information that the other cannotsuitably supply. Population characteristics, for example, are readilyobtained only from the household survey whereas detailed industrialclassifications can be reliably derived only from establishment reports.
Data from these two sources differ from each other because of dif-ferences in definition and coverage, sources of information, methodsof collection, and estimating procedures. Sampling variability andresponse errors are additional reasons for discrepancies. The majorfactors which have a differential effect on levels and trends of the twoseries are as follows.

The household survey definition of employment compriseswage and salary workers (including domestics and other privatehousehold workers), self-employed persons, and unpaid workers whoworked 15 hours or more during the survey week in family-operatedenterprises. Employment in both agricultural and nonagricultural in-
dustries is included. The payroll survey covers only wage and salaryemployees on the payrolls of nonagricultural establishments.
Multiple job holding. The household approach provides informationon the work status of the population without duplication, since eachperson is classified as employed, unemployed, or not in the laborforce. Employed persons holding more than one job are counted onlyonce and are classified according to the job at which they worked thegreatest number of hours during the survey week. In the figures basedon establishment reports, persons who worked in more than oneestablishment during the reporting period are counted each time theirnames appear on payrolls.
Unpaid absences from jobs. The household survey includes among theemployed all persons who had jobs but were not at work during thesurvey week—that is, were not working but had jobs from which theywere temporarily absent because of illness, bad weather, vacation,labor-management dispute, or because they were taking time off forvarious other reasons, even if they were not paid by their employersfor the time off. In the figures based on payroll reports, persons onleave paid for by the company are included, but not those on leavewithout pay for the entire payroll period.
For a comprehensive discussion of the differences betweenhousehold and establishment survey employment data, see Gloria P.Green's article "Comparing Employment Estimates from Householdand Payroll Surveys," Monthly Labor Review, December 1969.Reprints of this article are available upon request from the Bureau ofLabor Statistics.
Hours off work
The household survey measures hours actually worked whereas thepayroll survey measures hours paid for by employers. In thehousehold survey data, all persons with a job but not at work are ex-cluded from the hours distributions and the computations of averagehours. In the payroll survey, production or nonsupervisory employeeson paid vacation, paid holiday, or paid sick leave are included andassigned the rmmber of hours for which they were paid during thereporting period.
Earnings
The household survey measures median earnings of wage and salaryworkers in all occupations and industries in both the private andpublic sectors. Data refer to the usual earnings received from theworker's sole or primary job. Data from the establishment surveygenerally refer to mean earnings of production and related workers inmining and manufacturing, construction workers in construction, andnonsupervisory employees in private service-producing industries. Fora comprehensive discussion of the household survey earnings series,see "Technical Description of the Quarterly Data on Weekly Earningsfrom the Current Population Survey," BLS Report 601.

COMPARABILITY OF THE HOUSEHOLD DATA WITH OTHERSERIES
Unemployment insurance data. The unemployed total from thehousehold survey includes all persons who did not have a job at allduring the survey week and were looking for work or were waiting tobe called back to a job from which they had been laid off, whether ornot they were eligible for unemployment insurance. Figures onunemployment insurance claims, prepared by the Employment andTraining Administration of the Department of Labor, exclude personswho have exhausted their benefit rights, new workers who have notearned rights to unemployment insurance, and persons losing jobs notcovered by unemployment insurance systems (some workers inagriculture, domestic services and religious organizations, self-employed and unpaid family workers).Beginning in January 1978,coverage was extended to include domestic workers whose employerspaid $1,000 or more in wages in any calendar quarter, agriculturalemployees whose employers engaged 10 or more workers in 20 weeksor paid a total of $20,000 or more in wages in any calendar quarter,and almost all State and local government employees.
In addition, the qualifications for drawing unemployment compen-sation differ from the definition of unemployment used in thehousehold survey. For example, persons with a job but not at workand persons working only a few hours during the week are sometimeseligible for unemployment compensation but are classified asemployed rather than unemployed in the household survey.
For an examination of the similarities and differences between Stateinsured unemployment and total unemployment, see "MeasuringTotal and State Insured Unemployment" by Gloria P. Green in theJune 1971 issue of the Monthly Labor Review. Reprints of this articlemay be obtained upon request.
Agricultural employment estimates of the Department of Agriculture.The principal differences in coverage are the inclusion of personsunder 16 in the Statistical Research Service (SRS) series and the treat-ment of dual jobholders who are counted more than once if they workon more than one farm during the reporting period. There are alsowide differences in sampling techniques and collecting and estimatingmethods, which cannot be readily measured in terms of impact on dif-ferences in level and trend of the two series.
COMPARABILITY OF THE PAYROLL EMPLOYMENT DATAWITH OTHER SERIES
Statistics on manufactures and business, Bureau of the Census. BLSestablishment statistics on employment differ from employmentcounts derived by the Bureau of Census from its censuses or annualsample surveys of manufacturing establishments and the censuses ofbusiness establishments. The major reasons for some noncomparabili-ty are different treatment of business units considered parts of anestablishment, such as central administrative offices and auxiliaryunits, the industrial classification of establishments, and differentreporting patterns by multiunit companies. There are also differencesin the scope of the industries covered, e.g., the Census of Business ex-cludes professional services, public utilities, and financialestablishments, whereas these are included in the BLS statistics.
County Business Patterns. Data in County Business Patterns (CBP),published by the Bureau of the Census, U.S. Department of Com-merce, differ from BLS establishment statistics in the treatment ofcentral administrative offices and auxiliary units. Differences mayalso arise because of industrial classification and reporting practices.In addition, CBP excludes interstate railroads and government, andcoverage is incomplete for some of the nonprofit activities.
Employment covered by State unemployment insurance programs.Most nonagricultural wage and salary workers are covered by theunemployment insurance programs. Beginning in January 1972,coverage was expanded to include employees of small firms andselected nonprofit activities who had not been covered previously.However, certain activities, such as interstate railroads, parochialschools, and churches are not covered by unemployment insurancewhereas these are included in the BLS establishment statistics. Begin-ning in January 1978, coverage was extended to include domesticworkers whose employers paid $1,000 or more in wages in any calen-dar quarter, agricultural employees whose employers engaged 10 ormore workers in 20 weeks or paid a total of $20,000 or more in wagesin any calendar quarter, and almost all State and local governmentemployees.
Household Data(A tables)
COLLECTION AND COVERAGE
Statistics on the employment status of the population, the personal,occupational, and other characteristics of the employed, theunemployed, and persons not in the labor force, and related data arecompiled for the BLS by the Bureau of the Census in its CurrentPopulation Survey (CPS). A detailed description of this survey ap-pears in Concepts and Methods Used in Labor Force Statistics Deriv-ed from the Current Population Survey, BLS Report 463. This reportis available from BLS upon request.
These monthly surveys of the population are conducted with ascientifically selected sample designed to represent the civiliannoninstitutional population. Respondents are interviewed to obtaininformation about the employment status of each member of thehousehold 16 years of age and over. Separate statistics are also col-lected and published for 14- and 15-year-olds. The inquiry relates toactivity or status during the calendar week, Sunday through Saturday,which includes the 12th of the month. This is known as the surveyweek. Actual field interviewing is conducted in the following week.
Inmates of institutions, members of the Armed Forces, and personsunder 14 years of age are not covered in the regular monthly enumera-tions and are excluded from the population and labor force statisticsshown in this report. Data on members of the Armed Forces, who areincluded as part of the categories "total noninstitutional population"and "total labor force," are, however, obtained from the Departmentof Defense.
Each month, 65,000 occupied units are eligible for interview. About2,800 of these households are visited but interviews are not obtainedbecause the occupants are not at home after repeated calls or areunavailable for other reasons. This represents a noninterview rate forthe survey of between 4 or 5 percent. In addition to the 65,000 oc-cupied units, there are 12,000 sample units in an average month whichare visited but found to be vacant or otherwise not to be enumerated.Part of the sample is changed each month. The rotation plan providesfor three-fourths of the sample to be common from 1 month to thenext and one-half to be common with the same month a year earlier.
Beginning in September 1975, the sample was enlarged by 9,000households in order to provide greater reliability for smaller States
158Digitized for FRASER http://fraser.stlouisfed.org/ Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis
and thus permit the publication of annual statistics for all 50 Statesand the District of Columbia. These supplementary households wereadded to the national 47,000 household sample in January 1978.
Over the period November 1978 to April 1979 the sample was againenlarged by 9,000 households. This was done to permit the publicationof reliable quarterly estimates for the 50 States and the District of Col-umbia. These supplementary households were added to the 56,000household sample in January 1980.
CONCEPTS
Employed persons comprise (a) all those who during the surveyweek did any work at all as paid employees, in their own business,profession, or farm, or who worked 15 hours or more as unpaidworkers in an enterprise operated by a member of the family, and (b)all those who were not working but who had jobs or businesses fromwhich they were temporarily absent because of illness, bad weather,vacation, labor-management dispute, or personal reasons, whether ornot they were paid by their employers for the time off, and whether ornot they were seeking other jobs.
Each employed person is counted only once. Those who held morethan one job are counted in the job at which they worked the greatestnumber of hours during the survey week.
Included in the total are employed citizens of foreign countries,temporarily in the United States, who are not living on the premises ofan embassy.
Excluded are persons whose only activity consisted of work aroundthe house (such as home housework, and painting or repairing ownhome) or volunteer work for religious, charitable, and similarorganizations.
Unemployed persons comprise all persons who did not work duringthe survey week, who made specific efforts to find a job within thepast 4 weeks, and who were available for work during the survey week(except for temporary illness). Also included as unemployed are thosewho did not work at all, were available for work, and (a) were waitingto 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.
Duration of unemployment represents the length of time (throughthe current survey week) during which persons classified asunemployed had been continuously looking for work. For persons onlayoff, duration of unemployment represents the number of fullweeks since the termination of their most recent employment. Aperiod of 2 weeks or more during which a person was employed orceased looking for work is considered to break the continuity of thepresent period of seeking work. Measurements of mean and medianduration are computed from a distribution of single weeks ofunemployment.
Unemployed persons by reasons for unemployment are divided intofour major groups. (1) Job losers are persons whose employment end-ed involuntarily who immediately began looking for work and personson layoff. (2) Job leavers are persons who quit or otherwise ter-minated their employment voluntarily and immediately began lookingfor 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 priorto beginning to look for work. (4) New entrants are persons who neverworked at a full-time job lasting 2 weeks or longer.
Jobseekers are all unemployed persons who made specific efforts tofind a job, sometime during the 4-week period preceding the surveyweek. Jobseekers do not include persons unemployed because they (a)were waiting to be called back to a job from which they had been laidoff or (b) were waiting to report to a new wage or salary job within 30days. Jobseekers are grouped by the methods used to seek work, in-cluding going to a public or private employment agency or to anemployer directly, seeking assistance from friends or relatives, placingor answering ads, or utilizing some "other" method. Examples of the"other" category include being on a union or professional register,obtaining assistance from a community organization, or waiting at adesignated pick-up point.
The civilian labor force comprises the total of all civilians classifiedas employed or unemployed in accordance with the criteria describedabove. The "total labor force" also includes members of the ArmedForces stationed either in the United States or abroad.
The unemployment rate represents the number unemployed as apercent of the civilian labor force. This measure can also be computedfor groups within the labor force classified by sex, age, marital status,race, occupation, industry, etc. The job-loser, job-leaver, reentrant,and new entrant rates are each calculated as a percent of the civilianlabor force; the sum of the rates for the four groups thus equals thetotal unemployment rate.
Participation rates represent the proportion of the noninstitutionalpopulation that is in the labor force. Two types of participation ratesare published. The total labor force participation rate, which is theratio of the total labor force and the total noninstitutional population;and the civilian labor force participation rate, which is the ratio of thecivilian labor force and the civilian noninstitutional population. Par-ticipation rates are usually published for sex-age groups, often cross-classified by other demographic characteristics such as race andeducational attainment.
Employment-population ratios represent the proportion of the totalnoninstitutional population that is employed.
Not in> labor force includes all civilians 16 years and over who arenot classified as employed or unemployed. These persons are furtherclassified as "engaged in own home housework," "in school,""unable to work" because of long-term physical or mental illness, and"other." The "other" group includes for the most part retired per-sons, those reported as too old to work, the voluntarily idle, andseasonal workers for whom the survey week fell in an "off" seasonand who were not reported as unemployed. Persons doing only in-cidental unpaid family work (less than 15 hours) are also classified asnot in the labor force.
For persons not in the labor force, data on previous work ex-perience, intentions to seek work again, desire for a job at the time ofinterview, and reasons for not looking for work are compiled on aquarterly basis. As of January 1970, the detailed questions for personsnot in the labor force are asked only in those households that are inthe fourth and eighth months of the sample, i.e., the "outgoing"groups, those which had been in the sample for 3 previous months andwould not be in for the subsequent month. Between 1967 and 1969,the detailed not-in-labor force questions were asked of persons in thefirst and fifth months in the sample, i.e., the "incoming" groups.
Occupation, industry, and class of worker for the employed applyto the job held in the survey week. Persons with two or more jobs areclassified in the job at which they worked the greatest number ofhours during the survey week. The unemployed are classified accor-ding to their last full-time civilian job lasting 2 weeks or more. The oc-cupation and industry groups used in the CPS are defined as in the1970 Census of Population. Information on the detailed categories in-cluded in these groups is available upon request.
The class-of-worker breakdown specifies "wage and salaryworkers," subdivided into private and government workers, "self-employed workers," and "unpaid family workers." Wage and salaryworkers receive wages, salary, commission, tips, or pay in kind from aprivate employer or from a government unit. Self-employed personsare those who work for profit or fees in their own business, profes-sion, or trade, or operate a farm. Unpaid family workers are personsworking without pay for 15 hours a week or more on a farm or in abusiness operated by a member of the household to whom they arerelated by blood or marriage.
Hours of work statistics relate to the actual number of hours work-ed during the survey week. For example, a person who normallyworks 40 hours a week but who was off on the Columbus Day holidaywould be reported as working 32 hours even though he/she was paidfor the holiday.
For persons working in more than one job, the figures relate to thenumber of hours worked in all jobs during the week. However, all thehours are credited to the major job.
159Digitized for FRASER http://fraser.stlouisfed.org/ Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis
The distribution of employment by hours worked relates to persons"at work" during the survey week. At-work data differ from data ontotal employment because the latter include persons in the zero-hoursworked category, "with a job but not at work." Included in this lattergroup are persons who were on vacation, ill, involved in a labordispute, or otherwise absent from their jobs for voluntary,noneconomic reasons.
Persons who worked 35 hours or more in the survey week aredesignated as working "full time," correspondingly persons whoworked between 1 and 34 hours are designated as working "parttime." Part-time workers are classified by their usual status at theirpresent job (either full or part time) and by their reason for workingpart time during the survey week (economic or other reasons)."Economic reasons" include: Slack work, material shortages, repairsto plant or equipment, start or termination of a job during the week,and inability to find full-time work. "Other reasons" include: Labordispute, bad weather, own illness, vacation, demands of home,housework, school, no desire for full-time work, and full-time workeronly during the peak season. Persons on full-time schedules include,in addition to those working 35 hours or more, those who workedfrom 1 to 34 hours for noneconomic reasons and usually work fulltime.
Full- and part-time labor force. The full-time labor force consists ofpersons working on full-time schedules, persons involuntarily workingpart time (part time for economic reasons), and unemployed personsseeking full-time jobs. The part-time labor force consists of personsworking part time voluntarily and unemployed persons seeking part-time work. Persons with a job but not at work during the survey weekare classified according to whether they usually work full or part time.
Labor force time lost is a measure of aggregate hours lost to theeconomy through unemployment and involuntary part-time employ-ment and is expressed as a percent of potentially available aggregatehours. It is computed by assuming: (1) That unemployed personslooking for full-time work lost an average of 37.5 hours (2) that thoselooking for part-time work lost the average number of hours actuallyworked by voluntary part-time workers during the survey week, and(3) that persons on part time for economic reasons lost the differencebetween 37.5 hours and the actual number of hours they worked.
White and black and other are terms used to describe the race ofworkers. The "black-and-other category," includes all persons whoidentified themselves in the enumeration process to be other thanwhite. At the time of the 1970 Census of Population, 89 percent of theblack-and-other population group were black; the remainder wereprimarily American Indians, Alaskan Natives, and Asian and PacificIslanders. The term "black" is used in this volume when the relevantdata are provided exclusively for the black population.
Hispanic origin refers to persons who identified themselves in theenumeration process as Mexican, Puerto Rican living on themainland, Cuban, Central or South American, or of other Hispanicorigin or descent. According to the 1970 Census of population, ap-proximately 96 percent of their population is white.
Major activity: going to school and major activity: other are termsused to describe whether the activity of young persons during thereference week is primarily one of going to school or not. Statistics onmajor activity are published every month in table A-7 for 16 to21-year-olds by employment status, race, and sex, and, ifunemployed, whether seeking full- or part-time work.
Vietnam-era veterans are those who served in the Armed Forces ofthe United States between August 5, 1964, and May 7, 1975. Tablesfor veterans in this volume are limited to males in the civiliannoninstitutional population, i.e., veterans in institutions and femalesare 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 accor-ding to the 1970 Decennial Census. Persons were classified as poor ornonpoor by using income thresholds adopted by a Federal interagency
committee in 1969. These thresholds vary by family size, composition,and residence (farm-nonfarm). While poverty areas have a substantialconcentration of low-income residents, many poor persons live out-side these areas and, conversely, the areas include many people whoare not poor.
The metropolitan areas classification consists of the total of allareas encompassed by Standard Metropolitan Statistical Areas(SMSA's). The metropolitan area total is based on the number ofSMSA's as defined in the 1970 Decennial Census and does not includeany subsequent additions or changes. Nonmetropolitan areas refer tothe total of all areas outside SMSA's. The nonmetropolitan total isdisaggregated into farm and nonfarm components.
Usual weekly earnings data are provided from responses to thequestion "How much does. . .USUALLY earn per week at this jobbefore deductions?" Included are any overtime pay, commissions, ortips usually received. Data refer to the sole or primary job of wage andsalary workers. The term "usual" is as perceived by the respondent. Ifthe respondent asks for a definition of "usual," interviewers are in-structed to define the term as more than half the weeks worked duringthe past 4 or 5 months.
A household consists of all persons—related family members andall unrelated persons—who occupy a housing unit. A house, an apart-ment, or other group of rooms, or a single room is regarded as a hous-ing unit when it is occupied or intended for occupancy as separate liv-ing quarters.
A householder is the person (or one of the persons) in whose namethe housing unit is owned or rented. The term is never applied to eitherhusbands or wives in married-couple-families, but only to persons infamilies maintained by either men or women without a spouse.
Family refers to a group of two or more persons residing togetherwho are related by blood, marriage, or adoption; all such persons areconsidered as members of one family even though they may include a"subfamily," that is, a married couple or a parent-child group relatedby blood or marriage to the householder and sharing the livingquarters. The counts of families used in this volume refer to primaryfamilies only, that is, all persons in the household who are related tothe householder. Families are classified either as married-couplefamilies or as those maintained by women or men without spouses.Data on the earnings of families exclude all those in which there is nowage or salary earner or in which the husband, wife, or other personsmaintaining the family is either self-employed or in the Armed Forces.
HISTORIC COMPARABILITY
Raised lower age limit
Beginning with data for 1967, the lower age limit for officialstatistics on persons in the labor force was raised from 14 to 16 years.A detailed discussion of this and other definitional changes introducedat that time, incuding estimates of their effect on the various series iscontained in "New Definitions for Employment and Unemployment"by Robert L. Stein in the February 1967 issue of Employment andEarnings and Monthly Report on the Labor Force. Reprints may beobtained upon request.
Noncomparabllity of labor force levels
Before the changes introduced in 1967, the labor force data werenot comparable for three earlier periods: (1) Beginning in 1953, as aresult of the introduction of data from the 1950 census into the estima-tion procedure, population levels were raised by about 600,000; laborforce, total employment, and agricultural employment by about350,000, primarily affecting the figures for totals and males; othercategories were relatively unaffected; (2) beginning in 1960, the inclu-sion of Alaska and Hawaii resulted in an increase of about 500,000 inthe population and about 300,000 in the labor force, four-fifths of this
160Digitized for FRASER http://fraser.stlouisfed.org/ Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis
in nonagricultural employment; other labor force categories were notappreciably affected; (3) beginning in 1962, the introduction of figuresfrom the 1960 census reduced the population by about 50,000, laborforce and employment by about 200,000; unemployment totals werevirtually unchanged. In addition, beginning in 1972, informationfrom the 1970 census was introduced into the estimation procedures,producing an increase in the civilian noninstitutional population ofabout 800,000; labor force and employment totals were raised by a lit-tle more than 300,000, and unemployment levels and rates were essen-tially unchanged. A subsequent population adjustment based on the1970 census was introduced in March 1973. This adjustment affectedthe white and black and other groups but had little effect on totals.The adjustment resulted in the reduction of nearly 300,000 in thewhite population and an increase of the same magnitude in the blackand other population. Civilian labor force and total employmentfigures were affected to a lesser degree; the white labor force wasreduced by 150,000, and the black and other labor force rose by about210,000. Unemployment levels and rates were not significantlyaffected.
Beginning in January 1974, the methodology used to prepare in-dependent estimates of the civilian noninstitutional population wasmodified to an "inflation-deflation" approach. This change in thederivation of the population estimates had its greatest impact onestimates of 20 to 24-year-old males—particularly those of the black-and-other population—but had little effect on 16 and over totals. Ad-ditional information on the adjustment procedure appears in "CPSPopulation Controls Derived from Inflation-Deflation Method ofEstimation" in the February 1974 issue of Employment and Earnings.
Effective July 1975, as a result of the immigration of Vietnameserefugees into the United States, the total and black-and-other indepen-dent population controls for persons 16 years and over were adjustedupward by 76,000—30,000 males and 46,000 females. The addition ofthe refugees increased the black-and-other population by less than 1percent in any age-sex group, and all of the changes were in the"other" population.
Beginning in 1978, the introduction of an expansion of the sampleand revisions in the estimation procedures resulted in an increase ofroughly a quarter of a million in the overall civilian labor force andemployment totals; unemployment levels and rates were essentiallyunchanged. An explanation of the procedural changes and an indica-tion of the differences appear in "Revisions in the Current PopulationSurvey in January 1978" in the February 1978 issue of Employmentand Earnings.
Beginning in October 1978, the race of the individual was determin-ed by the household respondent for the incoming rotation grouphouseholds, rather than determined by the interviewer as before. Thepurpose of this change was to provide more accurate estimates ofcharacteristics by race. Thus, in October 1978, one-eighth of the sam-ple households had race determined by the household respondent andseven-eighths of the sample households had race determined by inter-viewer observation. It was not until January 1980 that the entire sam-ple had race determined by the household respondent. The new pro-cedure had no significant effect on the estimates.
Beginning in 1979, the first-stage ratio estimation method waschanged in the CPS estimation procedure. The new procedure isdescribed in the Estimating Methods section. The reasoning behindthe change and an indication of the differences appear in "Change inthe Estimation Procedure for the Current Population Survey beginn-ing in January 1979" in the February 1979 issue of Employment andEarnings. Differences between the old and new procedures exist onlyfor metropolitan and nonmetropolitan estimates, not for the totalU.S.
Changes In the occupational classification system
Beginning with 1971, the comparability of occupational employ-ment data was affected as a result of changes in census occupational
classifications introduced into the Current Population Survey (CPS).These changes stemmed from an exhaustive review of the classifica-tion system to be used for the 1970 Census of Population. This review,the most comprehensive since the 1940 census, was to reduce the sizeof large groups, to be more specific about general and "not elsewhereclassified" groups, and to provide information on emerging signifi-cant occupations. Differences in March 1970 employment levelstabulated on both the 1960 and 1970 classification systems rangedfrom a drop of 650,000 in operatives to an increase of 570,000 in ser-vice workers, much of which resulted from a shift between these twogroups; the nonfarm laborers group increased by 420,000, andchanges in other groups amounted to 220,000 or less.
An additional major group was created by splitting the operativescategory into two: Operatives, except transport, and transport equip-ment operatives. Separate data for these two groups first becameavailable in January 1972. At the same time, several changes in titles,as well as in order of presentation, were introduced; for example, thetitle of the managers, officials, and proprietors group was changed to"managers and administrators, except farm," since only proprietorsperforming managerial duties are included in the category.
Apart from the effects of revisions in the occupational classificationsystem beginning in 1971, comparability of occupational employmentdata was further affected in December 1971, when a question elicitinginformation on major activities or duties was added to the monthlyCPS questionnaire in order to determine more precisely the occupa-tional classification of individuals. This change resulted in severaldramatic occupational shifts, particularly from managers and ad-ministrators to other groups. Thus, meaningful comparisons of oc-cupational levels cannot always be made for 1972 and subsequentyears with earlier periods. However, revisions in the occupationalclassification system as well as in the CPS questionnaire are believedto have had but a negligible impact on unemployment rates.
Additional information on changes in the occupational classifica-tion system of the CPS appears in "Revisions in OccupationalClassifications for 1971" and "Revisions in the Current PopulationSurvey" in the February 1971 and February 1972 issues, respectively,of Employment and Earnings.
Changes In sample design
Since the inception of the survey, there have been various changes inthe design of the CPS sample. Most of these changes were made inorder to improve the efficiency of the sample design and/or to in-crease the reliability of the sample estimates.
One major change made after every decennial census is to changethe sample design to make use of the recently collected censusmaterials. Also, occasionally the sample is expanded in terms ofnumber of sample areas and number of sample persons. In 1953, arotation plan was introduced in which a sample unit would be inter-viewed for 4 months, leave the sample for 8 months, and then returnto the sample for another 4 months. When Alaska and Hawaii achiev-ed statehood, three more sample areas were added to the sample to ac-count for the population in these States. After the 1960 census, selec-tion of a major portion of the sample from census address lists wasbegun, though a portion of the sample is still collected using areasampling. Following the 1970 census, the ultimate sampling unit waschanged from a non-contiguous cluster of six housing units to a usual-ly contiguous cluster of four housing units. In January 1978, a sup-plemental sample of 9,000 housing units, selected in 24 States and theDistrict of Columbia and designed to provide more reliable annualaverage estimates for States, was incorporated with the existingdesign. A coverage improvement sample composed of approximately450 sample household units which represent 237,000 occupied mobilehomes and 600,000 new construction housing units, was included incomputing the estimates beginning in October 1978 in order to providecoverage of mobile homes and new construction housing units thatpreviously had no chance for selection in the CPS sample. A recentchange was introduced in January 1980, when another supplemental
161Digitized for FRASER http://fraser.stlouisfed.org/ Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis
sample of 9,000 households selected in 32 States and the District ofColumbia to provide more reliable quarterly average estimates forStates, was added to the existing sample.
The following table provides a description of some aspects of theCPS sample design in use during the different data collection periods.For a more detailed account of the history of the CPS sample design,see The Current Population Survey: Design and Methodology,Technical Paper No. 40, Bureau of the Census, U.S. Department ofCommerce, or Concepts and Methods used in Labor Force StatisticsDerived from the Current Population Survey, BLS Report 463.
ESTIMATING METHODS
Under the estimating methods used in the CPS, all of the results fora given month become available simultaneously and are based onreturns from the entire panel of respondents. There are no subsequentadjustments to independent benchmark data on labor force, employ-ment, or unemployment. Therefore, revisions of the historical dataare not an inherent feature of this statistical program.
The CPS estimation procedure involves weighting the data fromeach sample person. The basic weight, which is the inverse of the pro-bability of the person being in the sample, is a rough measure of thenumber of actual persons that the sample person represents. In Statessupplemented in the 1978 and 1980 expansions, almost all sample per-sons within the same sample area have the same basic weight, but theweight may differ across sample areas. The basic weight is the samefor almost all sample persons in unsupplemented States. The basicweights are then adjusted for noninterview, and the ratio estimationprocedure is applied.
1. Noninterview adjustment. The weights for all interviewedhouseholds are adjusted to the extent needed to account for occupiedsample households for which no information was obtained because ofabsence, impassable roads, refusals, or unavailability of the respon-dent for other reasons. This adjustment is made separately by com-binations of sample areas within each State and the District of Colum-bia, and within these, for six groups—two race categories (white, andblack and other) within three residence categories. For sample areaswhich are Standard Metropolitan Statistical Areas (SMSA's), theseresidence categories are the central cities, and the urban and the ruralbalance of the SMSA's. For other sample areas, the residencecategories are urban, rural nonfarm, and rural farm. The proportionof sample households not interviewed varies from 4 to 5 percentdepending on weather, vacations, etc.
2. Ratio estimates. The distribution of the population selected for thesample may differ somewhat, by chance, from that of the populationas a whole, in such characteristics as age, race, sex, and residence.Since these characteristics are closely correlated with labor force par-ticipation and other principal measurements made from the sample,the latter estimates can be substantially improved when weighted ap-propriately by the known distribution of these populationcharacteristics. This is accomplished through two stages of ratioestimates as follows:
a. First-stage ratio estimate. In the CPS, a portion of the 629 sampleareas is chosen to represent other areas not in the sample; the re-mainder of the sample areas represent only themselves. The first-stageratio estimation procedure was designed to reduce the portion of thevariance resulting from requiring sample areas to represent nonsampleareas. Therefore, this procedure is not applied to sample areas whichrepresent only themselves. The procedure is performed at twogeographic levels: First, by the four census regions (Northeast, NorthCentral, South, and West), and second, for each of the 46 Stateswhich contains nonsample areas. The procedure corrects for the dif-ferences that existed at the time of the 1970 census between thedistribution by race and residence of the population in the sampleareas and the known race-residence distribution in the portions of thecensus region or State represented by these areas. The regional adjust-ment is performed by metropolitan-nonmetropolitan residence andrace, while the State adjustment is done by urban-rural status andrace.
b. Second-stage ratio estimate. In this stage, the sample proportionsin the categories described below are adjusted to the distribution of in-dependent current estimates of the population in the same categories.The second-stage ratio estimate is done in order to increase thereliability of the estimates and is done in three steps. In the first step,the sample estimates are adjusted within each State and the District ofColumbia to an independent control for the population 16 years andover for the State. The second step involves "nonwhite" persons only,and is an adjustment to independent estimates of 40 age-sex-racecategories across the whole Nation. (The race categories used areblack and other minority races.) The third adjustment is applied to allsample persons and is a weighting to nationwide independent popula-tion estimates within 68 age-sex-race groups. The entire second-stageratio estimation procedure is iterated six times, each time beginning atthe weights developed the previous time. This iteration ensures thatthe sample estimates both of State population and of national age-sex-race categories, will be virtually equal to the independent populationestimates.

The independent controls by State for the civilian noninstitutionalpopulation 16 years and over are an arithmetic extrapolation of thetrend in the growth of this segment of the population from the April 1,1970 census through the latest available July 1 estimate, adjusted as alast step to a current estimate of the U.S. population of this group.State estimates by age for July 1 are published annually in CurrentPopulation Reports, Series P-25. For a description of themethodology used in developing the State total, see Report 640 of thatseries. Descriptions of the age estimates methodology are available onrequest from the Chief of the Population Division, U.S. Bureau of theCensus, Washington, D.C. 20233.
Prior to January 1974, the independent national controls used forthe age-sex-race groups in both the second and third steps of thesecond-stage ratio estimation procedure were prepared by carryingforward the most recent census data (1970) after taking account ofsubsequent aging of the population, births, deaths, and migration bet-ween the United States and other countries. Beginning in 1974, the"inflation-deflation" method of deriving independent populationcontrols was introduced into the CPS estimation procedures. These in-dependent controls are prepared by inflating the most recent censuscounts to include the estimated net census undercount by age, sex, andrace, aging this population forward to each subsequent month andlater age by adding births and net migration, and subtracting deaths.These post-censal population estimates are then "deflated" to censuslevel to reflect the pattern of net undercount in the most recent censusby age, sex, and race. The actual percent change over time in thepopulation in any age group is preserved.3. Composite estimate procedure. In deriving statistics for a givenmonth, a composite estimating procedure is used which takes accountof net changes from the previous month for continuing parts of thesample (75 percent) as well as the sample results for the currentmonth. Almost all estimates of month-to-month change are improvedby this procedure, and most estimates of levels are also improved, butto a lesser extent.
Rounding of estimates
The sums of individual items may not always equal the totals shownin the same tables because of independent rounding of totals and com-ponents to the nearest thousand. Differences, however, are insignifi-cant.
Reliability of the estimates
There are two types of errors possible in an estimate based on asample survey—sampling and nonsampling. The standard errors pro-vided primarily indicate the magnitude of the sampling error. Theyalso partially measure the effect of some nonsampling errors inresponse and enumeration but do not measure any systematic biases inthe data.
Nonsampling errors. The full extent of nonsampling error isunknown, but special studies have been conducted to quantify somesources of nonsampling error in the CPS as discussed below. The ef-fect of nonsampling error should be small on estimates of relativechange, such as month-to-month change. Estimates of monthly levelswould be more severely affected by the nonsampling error.
Nonsampling errors in surveys can be attributed to many sources,e.g., inability to obtain information about all cases in the sample,definitional difficulties, differences in the interpretation of questions,inability or unwillingness of respondents to provide correct informa-tion, inability to recall information, errors made in collection such asin recording or coding the data, errors made in processing the data, er-rors made in estimating values for missing data, and failure to repre-sent all sample households and all persons within sample households(undercoverage).
Nonsampling errors occurring in the interview phase of the surveyhave been studied by means of a reinterview program. This program isused to estimate various sources of error as well as to evaluate andcontrol the work of the interviewers. A random sample of each inter-viewer's work is inspected through reinterview at regular intervals.The results indicate, among other things, that the data published fromthe CPS are subject to moderate systematic biases. A description ofthe CPS reinterview program and some of the other results may befound in the Current Population Survey Reinterview Program,January 1961 through December 1966, Technical Paper No. 19,Bureau of the Census. U.S. Department of Commerce.
The effects of some components of nonsampling error in the CPSdata can be examined as a result of the rotation plan used for the sam-ple, since the level of the estimates varies by rotation group. A descrip-tion of these effects appears in the article "The Effects of RotationGroup Bias on Estimates from Panel Sureys," by Barbara A. Bailar,Journal of the American Statistical Association, Volume 70, No. 349,March 1975.
Undercoverage in the CPS results from missed housing units andmissed persons within sample households. Overall undercoverage ascompared to the level of the decennial census, is about 5 percent. It isknown that the CPS undercoverage varies with age, sex, and race.Generally, undercoverage is larger for males than for females andlarger for black and other races than for whites. Ratio estimation toindependent age-sex-race population controls, as described previous-ly, partially corrects for the biases due to survey undercoverage.However, biases exist in the estimates to the extent that missed personsin missed households or missed persons in interviewed householdshave different characteristics than interviewed persons in the sameage-sex-race group. Further, the independent population controls us-ed have not been adjusted for undercoverage in the 1970 census, whichwas estimated at 2.5 percent of the population, with differentials byage, sex, and race similar to those observed in the CPS.
Additional information on nonsampling error in the CPS appears inthe paper, "An Error Profile: Employment as Measured by the Cur-rent Population Survey," by Camilla Brooks and Barbara Bailar,Statistical Policy Working Paper 3, U.S. Department of Commerce,Office of Federal Statistical Policy and Standards; in the paper "TheCurrent Population Survey: An Overview," by Marvin Thompsonand Gary Shapiro, Annals of Economic and Social Measurement,Vol. 2, April 1973; and in The Current Population Survey, Design andMethodology, Technical Paper No. 40, Bureau of the Census, U.S.Department of Commerce. This last document includes a comprehen-sive and up-to-date discussion of various sources of error, anddescribes attempts to measure them in the CPS.
Sampling error. The standard error is primarily a measure of sampl-ing variability, that is, of the variation that occurs by chance because asample rather than the entire population is surveyed. The sampleestimate and its estimated standard error enable one to construct con-fidence intervals, ranges that would include the average of all possiblesamples with a known probability. For example, if all possiblesamples were selected, each of these surveyed under essentially thesame general conditions and using the sample sample design, and anestimate and its estimated error were calculated from each sample,then:
1. Approximately 68 percent of the intervals from one standard er-ror below the estimate to one standard error above the estimate wouldinclude the average result of all possible samples.
2. Approximately 90 percent of the intervals from 1.6 standard er-rors below the estmate to 1.6 standard errors above the estimate wouldinclude the average of all possile samples.
3. Approximately 95 percent of the intervals from 2 standard errorsbelow the estimate to 2 standard errors above the estimate would in-clude the average result of all possible samples.
In order to derive standard errors that would be applicable to alarge number of estimates and could be prepared at a moderate cost, anumber of approximations were required. First, the standard errors in
163Digitized for FRASER http://fraser.stlouisfed.org/ Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis
this report reflect the sample design and estimation procedures in ef-fect prior to the expansions for State estimates. Thus, these standarderrors may slightly overstate the standard errors applicable to the pre-sent design. Second, instead of computing an individual standard er-ror for each estimate, generalized sets of standard errors were com-puted for various types of characteristics. This generalization yieldsmore stable estimates of the standard errors. Consequently, the sets ofstandard errors provided give an indication of the order of magnitudeof the standard error of an estimate rather than the precise standarderror.
Tables A and B show approximate standard errors for majoremployment status characteristics for monthly estimates and forchanges for consecutive months. These standard errors are applicableto the level of the estimates in recent months.
Tables C through G provide generalized standard errors for mon-thly level and month-to-month change for estimated totals, unemploy-ment rates, and percentages. Table H contains factors for use withtable G for computing standard errors, as described below, for mon-thly level and month-to-month change for percentages. Standard er-rors for intermediate values not shown in the tables may be approx-imated by linear interpolation. The standard error for estimatedchanges from one month to the next is more closely related to themonthly level for the characteristic than to the size of the specificmonth-to-month change itself. Thus, in order to use the generalizedstandard errors for month-to-month change as given in the tables ofstandard errors, it is necessary to obtain the monthly estimate for thecharacteristic. It should be noted that the tables of standard errors formonth-to-month change apply only to estimates of change betweentwo consecutive months. Estimates of change for nonconsecutivemonths are subject to higher standard errors. Table I contains factorsfor use withttables C, E, G, and H to compute approximate standarderrors, as described below, for levels, labor force participation rates,and percentages as pertaining to year-to-year change of monthlyestimates, quarterly averages, changes in quarterly averages, yearlyaverages and changes in yearly averages. Note that standard errors forchanges in quarterly and yearly estimates apply only to consecutivequarters and years. For years prior to 1967, the standard errors mustbe adjusted due to the differences in the sample size. For years prior to1956, the standard errors should be multiplied by 1.50 and for the1956-66 period they should by multiplied by 1.22. Table J providesgeneralized standard errors for quarterly estimates of persons andfamilies for use with the CPS earnings data.
Standard errors for estimated totals. Tables C and D providegeneralized standard errors for monthly totals and for month-to-month change. The figures given in these tables are to used for thecharacteristics as indicated.
Illustration. Assume that in a given month the number of personsworking a specific number of hours was 12,000,000, an increase of400,000 over the previous month. Linear interpolation in the secondcolumn of table C shows that the standard error on an estimate of12,000,000 is about 150,000. The 68 percent confidence interval asshown by these data is from 11,850,000 to 12,150,000. Therefore, aconclusion that the average estimate derived from all possible sampleslies within a range computed in this way would be correct for roughly68 percent of all possible samples. Recall that the standard error of amonth-to-month change is primarily dependent on the size of themonthly estimate. Thus, using linear interpolation in the first columnof table D the standard error on a month-to-month change of 400,000when the monthly level is approximately 12,000,000 is about 111,000.
Standard errors for rates and percentages. The reliability of anestimated unemployment rate or an estimated percentage, computedusing sample data for both numerator and denominator, depends onboth the size of the rate or percentage and the total upon which therate or percentage is based. Estimated rates and percentages arerelatively more reliable than the corresponding estimates of thenumerator of the rates or percentages; this is particularly true forpercentages of 50 percent or more. As a general rule, percentages are
not published when the monthly base is less than 75,000 or the annualaverage base is less than 35,000.
Tables E and F show generalized standard errors for monthly leveland month-to-month change for unemployment rates.
Generalized standard errors for estimated monthly percentages andestimated month-to-month change in percentages can be obtainedthrough the use of the standard errors in table G and the factors intable H. First obtain the standard error from table G for the specificpercentage and base. The generalized standard error is then calculatedby multiplying the standard error from table G by the appropriate fac-tor from table H. When the numerator and denominator of thepercentage are in different categories, use the factor indicated by thenumerator of the percentage.
Illustration. For example, assume that in a given month 3.6 percentof a total of 90,771,000 employed persons are employed inagriculture. First the standard error on an estimate of 3.6 percent witha base of 90,771,000 is obtained from table G (0.09 percentage point).The appropriate factor from table H for the numerator of the percen-tage, agricultural employment, is 1.26. The generalized standard error

Standard errors for year-to-year change of monthly estimates,quarterly averages, changes in quarterly averages, yearly averages andchanges in yearly averages. The approximate standard errors of levels,rates and percentages involving year-to-year change of monthlyestimates, quarterly averages, changes in quarterly averages, yearlyaverages and changes in yearly averages may be obtained by usingtable I in conjunction with the other tables. Standard errors forestimates of change are more closely related to the level of the estimatethan to the size of the specific change. Thus, to obtain the standard er-ror of an estimate of an average level, rate, or percentage, or anestimate of a change in level, rate, or percentage, it is first necessary tofind the appropriate estimate of level. For an estimate of an averagelevel, rate or percentage, find the standard error of this estimate. Foran estimate of change in level, rate or percentage, find the standard er-ror of the average of the two estimates affecting the change. Then,after computing the standard error by treating these estimates as mon-thly estimates and using the procedures above, multiply this result by asuitable factor from table I to obtain the approximate standard errorfor the average or change.
Illustration. For example, suppose that one is interested in the year-to-year change of a monthly unemployment rate. Let us assume thatfor a certain month the unemployment rate is 6.9 percent based on atotal of 95,676,000 in the civilian labor force, and that a year prior tothis the unemployment rate was 6.1 percent based on a total of94,254,000 in the civilian labor force for the month. First, the stan-dard error on the average of the two estimates, 6.5 percent with a baseof 94,965,000, is obtained from table E (0.11 percentage point). Theappropriate factor then from table I is 1.40. The approximate stan-dard error on the change of 0.8 percent is then given by0.11x1.40 = 0.15 percentage point.
The approximate standard error of levels involving year-to-yearchange of quarterly estimates pertaining to CPS earnings data for per-
sons and families may be obtained by using table J in conjunction withthe following formula:
Standarderror ofyear-to-yearchange
/standA /stand \ /standA[ ard ] [ ard J I ard )
+ y error /-2(P)yerror J \ e r r o r /
where X is the estimate for one quarter and Y is the estimate foranother quarter. The coefficient, P, is a measure of the correlationbetween the estimates X and Y resulting from the presence of some ofthe same respondents in the sample for each estimate. For consecutiveyear-to-year changes of quarterly estimates, the values of P are .30 forpersons (total, white, and black) and .35 for families (total, white, andblack). The respective values for estimates of Hispanics are .45and .55.
Illustration:Assume that in a given quarter the number of women employed as
full-time wage and salary workers was 27,000,000 and in the samequarter a year later their number had increased to 29,000,000. Usinglinear interpolation in the eighth column of table J, the standard errorof an estimate of 27,000,000 is 216,000; for 29,000,000 it is 221,000.Using the above formula, the standard error of the 2,000,000 year-to-year change is:
(216,000)'
or about 259,000.

Establishment Data(B, C, and D tables)
COLLECTION
Payroll reports provide current information on wage and salaryemployment, hours, earnings, and labor turnover in nonagriculturalestablishments, by industry and geographic location.
Federal-State cooperation
Under cooperative arrangements, responding establishments reportemployment, hours, and earnings data and/or labor turnover data toState agencies. State agencies mail the forms to the establishments andexamine the returns for consistency, accuracy, and completeness. TheStates use the reported data to prepare State and area series and alsosend the reported data to the BLS (Washington Office) for use inpreparing the national series. This avoids a duplicate reporting burdenon establishments, and together with the use of similar estimatingtechniques at the national and State levels, promotes increased com-parability between estimates.
Shuttle schedules
Two types of data collection schedules are used: Form BLS790—Report on Employment, Payroll, and Hours; and Form DL1219—Monthly Report on Labor Turnover. The collection agencyreturns the schedule to the respondent each month so that the nextmonth's data can be entered on the space allotted for that month. This"shuttle" procedure assures maximum comparability and accuracy ofreporting, since the respondent can see the figures that have beenreported for previous months.
Form BLS 790 provides for entry of data on the total number offull- and part-time workers on the payrolls of nonagriculturalestablishments and, for most industries, employment, payroll, andhours of production and related workers or nonsupervisory workersfor the pay period which includes the 12th of the month. Form DL1219 provides for the collection of information on the total number ofaccessions and separations, by type, during the calendar month, andtotal employment during the pay period which includes the 12th of themonth.
CONCEPTS
Industrial classification
Establishments reporting on Form BLS 790 and Form DL 1219 areclassified into industries on the basis of their principal product or ac-tivity determined from information on annual sales volume sinceJanuary 1980, this information is collected on a supplement to thequarterly unemployment insurance tax reports filed by employers. Foran establishment making more than one product or engaging in morethan one activity, the entire employment of the establishment is in-cluded under the industry indicated by the principal product oractivity.
All data on employment, hours, earnings, and labor turnover forthe Nation and for most States and areas are classified in accordancewith the 1972 Standard Industrial Classification Manual (SICM), Of-fice of Management and Budget. The BLS tabulates and estimatesstatistics which distinguish between private and public establishments,thus maintaining continuity with previously published statistics for theprivate and government sectors.
Industry employment
Employment data, except those for the Federal Government, referto persons on establishment payrolls who received pay for any part of
the pay period which includes the 12th of the month. For FederalGovernment establishments, employment figures represent thenumber of persons who occupied positions on the last day of thecalendar month. Intermittent workers are counted if they performedany service during the month.
The data exclude proprietors, the self-employed, unpaid volunteeror family workers, farm workers, and domestic workers inhouseholds. Salaried officers of corporations are included. Govern-ment employment covers only civilian employees; military personnelare excluded. Employees of the Central Intelligence and NationalSecurity Agencies are also excluded.
Persons on establishment payrolls who are on paid sick leave (whenpay is received directly from the firm), on paid holiday or paid vaca-tion, or who work during a part of the pay period even though theyare unemployed or on strike during the rest of the period are countedas employed. Not counted as employed are persons who are on layoff,on leave without pay, or on strike for the entire period or who werehired but have not yet reported during the period.
Industry hours and earnings
Average hours and earnings data are derived from reports ofpayrolls and hours for production and related workers in manufactur-ing and mining, construction workers in construction, and nonsuper-visory employees in private service-producing industries. An exceptionto the definitions below are the statistics on hours and earnings ofFederal Government employees, reported in table C-3, which are forall Federal employees, both supervisory and nonsupervisory, for theentire calendar month. When the pay period reported is longer than 1week, figures are reduced to a weekly basis.
Production and related workers include working supervisors and allnonsupervisory workers (including group leaders and trainees) engag-ed in fabricating, processing, assembling, inspection, receiving,storage, handling, packing, warehousing, shipping, maintenance,repair, janitorial and guard services, product development, auxiliaryproduction for plant's own use (e.g., power plant), and recordkeepingand other services closely associated with the above production opera-tions.
Construction workers include the following employees in the con-struction division: Working supervisors, qualified craft workers,mechanics, apprentices, laborers, etc., whether working at the site ofconstruction or in shops or yards, at jobs (such as precutting andpreassembling) ordinarily performed by members of the constructiontrades.
Nonsupervisroy employees include employees (not above the work-ing supervisory level) such as office and clerical workers, repairers,salespersons, operators, drivers, physicians, lawyers, accountants,nurses, social workers, research aides, teachers, drafters,photographers, beauticians, musicians, restaurant workers, custodialworkers, attendants, line installers and repairers, laborers, janitors,guards, and other employees at similar occupational levels whose ser-vices are closely associated with those of the employees listed.
Payroll covers the payroll for full- and part-time production, con-struction, or nonsupervisory workers who received pay for any part ofthe pay period which includes the 12th of the month. The payroll isreported before deductions of any kind, e.g., for old-age andunemployment insurance, group insurance, withholding tax, bonds,or union dues; also included is pay for overtime, holidays, vacations,and sick leave paid directly by the firm. Bonuses (unless earned andpaid regularly each pay period), other pay not earned in the pay periodreported (e.g., retroactive pay), tips, and the value of free rent, fuel,meals, or other payment in kind are excluded. "Fringe benefits" (suchas health and other types of insurance, contributions to retirement,etc., paid by the employer) are also excluded.
171Digitized for FRASER http://fraser.stlouisfed.org/ Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis
Hours cover the hours paid for, during the pay period which in-cludes the 12th of the month, for production, construction, or non-supervisory workers. Included are hours paid for holidays and vaca-tions, and for sick leave when pay is received directly from the firm.
Overtime hours covers hours worked by production or relatedworkers for which overtime premiums were paid because the hourswere in excess of the number of hours of either the straight-time work-day or the workweek during the pay period which includes the 12th ofthe month. Weekend and holiday hours are included only if overtimepremiums were paid. Hours for which only shift differential, hazard,incentive, or other similar types of premiums were paid are excluded.Gross average hourly and weekly earnings. Average hourly earningsare on a "gross" basis. They reflect not only changes in basic hourlyand incentive wage rates but also such variable factors as premium payfor overtime and late-shift work and changes in output of workerspaid on an incentive plan. They also reflect shifts in the number ofemployees between relatively high-paid and low-paid work andchanges in workers' earnings in individual establishments. Averagesfor groups and divisions further reflect changes in average hourly ear-nings for individual industries.
Averages of hourly earnings differ from wage rates. Earnings arethe actual return to the worker for a stated period of time; rates arethe amount stipulated for a given unit of work or time. The earningsseries do not measure the level of total labor costs on the part of theemployer since the following are excluded: Irregular bonuses, retroac-tive items, payments of various welfare benefits, payroll taxes paid byemployers, and earnings for those employees not covered under theproduction worker, construction worker, or nonsupervisory employeedefinitions.
Gross average weekly earnings estimates are derived by multiplyingaverage weekly hours estimates by average hourly earnings estimates.Therefore, weekly earnings are affected not only by changes in grossaverage hourly earnings but also by changes in the length of theworkweek. Monthly variations in such factors as proportion of part-time workers, stoppages for varying reasons, labor turnover duringthe survey period, and absenteeism for which employees are not paidmay cause the average workweek to fluctuate.
Long-term trends of gross average weekly earnings can be affectedby structual changes in the makeup of the work force. For example,persistent long-term increases in the proportion of part-time workersin retail trade and many of the services industries have reducedaverage workweeks in these industries and have affected the averageweekly earnings series.Average weekly hours. The workweek information relates to theaverage hours for which pay was received and is different from stan-dard or scheduled hours. Such factors as unpaid absenteeism, laborturnover, part-time work, and stoppages cause average weekly hoursto be lower than scheduled hours of work for an establishment. Groupaverages further reflect changes in the workweek of component in-dustries.Average overtime hours. The overtime hours represent that portion ofthe gross average weekly hours which exceeded regular hours and forwhich overtime premiums were paid. If an employee were to work ona paid holiday at regular rates, receiving as total compensation his orher holiday pay plus straight-time pay for hours worked that day, noovertime hours would be reported.
Since overtime hours are premium hours by definition, gross weeklyhours and overtime hours do not necessarily move in the same direc-tion from month to month; for example, overtime premiums may bepaid for hours in excess of the straight-time workday although lessthan a full week is worked. Diverse trends at the industry-group levelalso may be caused by a marked change in hours for a component in-dustry where little or no overtime was worked in both the previous andcurrent months. In addition, such factors as stoppages, absenteeism,and labor turnover may not have the same influence on overtimehours as on gross hours.Railroads hours and earnings. The figures for class I railroads (ex-cluding switching and terminal companies) are based on monthly data
summarized in the M-300 report of the Interstate Commerce Commis-sion and relate to all employees except executives, officials, and staffassistants (ICC group I) who received pay during the month. Grossaverage hourly earnings are computed by dividing total compensationby total hours paid for. Average weekly hours are obtained bydividing the total number of hours paid for, reduced to a weekly basis,by the number of employees, as defined above. Gross average weeklyearnings are derived by multiplying average weekly hours by averagehourly earnings.Spendable average weekly earnings. Spendable average weekly earn-ings in current dollars are obtained by deducting estimated Federalsocial security and income taxes from average weekly earnings. Theamount of income tax liability depends on the number of dependentssupported by the worker, the worker's marital status and level of grossincome. To reflect these variables, the Bureau calculates two sets ofspendable earnings series based on the assumptions that the workerearned the gross average weekly earnings and was taxed at the ratesapplicable to either (1) a single worker with no dependents, or (2) amarried worker with three dependents who files a joint return. Thecomputations are based on gross average weekly earnings for all pro-duction or nonsupervisory workers in the industry division excludingother income and income earned by other family members.
The series reflect the spendable earnings of only those workers, withno dependents or three dependents, whose gross weekly pay approx-imates the average earnings indicated for all production and non-supervisory workers. It does not reflect, for example, the average ear-nings of all married workers with three dependents; such workers, infact, have higher gross average earnings than workers with nodependents.
Since part-time as well as full-time workers are included, and sincethe proportion of part-time workers has been rising, the seriesunderstates the increase in earnings for full-time workers. As noted,**fringe benefits" are not included in the earnings. For a more com-plete discussion of the uses and limitations of these series, see the arti-cle by Paul M. Schwab, "Two Divergent Measures of PurchasingPower," in the Monthly Labor Review for August 1979. Reprints ofthis ariticle are available upon request from the Bureau of LaborStatistics.
"Real" earnings, or earnings in constant dollars, are computed bydividing the earnings averages for the current month by the ConsumerPrice Index for Urban Wage Earners and Clerical Workers (CPI-W),and then multiplying by 100. This is done for gross average weeklyearnings and for spendable average weekly earnings. The level of earn-ings is thus adjusted for changes in the purchasing power of the dollarsince the base period (1967).Average hourly earnings excluding overtime. Average hourly earningsexcluding overtime premium pay are computed by dividing the totalproduction-worker payroll for the industry group by the sum of totalproduction-worker hours and one-half of total overtime hours. Priorto January 1956, these data were based on the application of adjust-ment factors to gross average hourly earnings (as described in theMonthly Labor Review, May 1950, pp. 537-40). Both methodseliminate only the earnings due to overtime paid for at 1Vi times thestraight-time rates. No adjustment is made for other premium pay-ment provisions, such as holiday work, late-shift work, and overtimerates other than time and one-half.Indexes of aggregate weekly payrolls and hours. The indexes of ag-gregate weekly payrolls and hours are prepared by dividing the currentmonth's aggregate by the average of the 12 monthly figures for 1967.For basic industries, the hour aggregates are the product of averageweekly hours and production-worker or nonsupervisory-workeremployment, and the payroll aggregates are the product of hour ag-gregates and average hourly earnings. At all higher levels of industryaggregation, hour and payroll aggregates are the sum of the compo-nent aggregates.Indexes of diffusion of changes in number of employees onnonagricultural payrolls. These indexes measure the percent of in-dustries which posted increases in employment over the specified time

span. The indexes are calculated from 172 unpublished seasonally ad-justed employment series (two-digit nonmanufacturing industries andthree-digit manufacturing industries) covering all nonagriculturalpayroll employment in the private sector. A more detailed discussionof these indexes appears in "Introduction of Diffusion Indexes," inthe December 1974 issue of Employment and Earnings.
Labor turnover
Labor turnover is the gross movement of wage and salary workersinto and out of employed status with respect to individualestablishments. This movement, which relates to a calendar month, isdivided into two broad types: Accessions (new hires and rehires) andseparations (terminations of employment initiated by either employeror employee). Each type of action is cumulated for a calendar monthand expressed as a rate per 100 employees. The data relate to allemployees, whether full- or part-time, permanent or temporary, in-cluding executive, office, sales, other salaried personnel, and produc-tion workers. The inclusion of transfers to or from another establish-ment of the company as separations and accessions began January1959.
Accessions are the total number of permanent and temporary addi-tions to the employment roll, including both new and rehiredemployees.
New hires are temporary or permanent additions to the employmentroll of persons who have never before been employed in the establish-ment (except employees transferring from another establishment ofthe same company) or of former employees not recalled by theemployer.
Recalls are permanent or temporary additions to the employmentroll of persons specfically recalled to a job in the same establishmentof the company following a period of layoff lasting more than 7 con-secutive days. (The collection of recalls, as a separate item, beganJanuary 1976.)
Other accessions are all additions to the employment roll which arenot classified as new hires or recalls. These include transfers fromother establishments of the company and former employees returningfrom military leave or other absences without pay who have beencounted as separations. Data on other accessions are not publishedseparately but are included in total accessions.
Separations are terminations of employment during the calendarmonth and are classified according to cause—quits, layoffs, and otherseparations—defined as follows:
Quits are terminations of employment initiated by employees,failure to report after being hired (if counted as new hires previously),and unauthorized absences, if, on the last day of the month, the per-son has been absent more than 7 consecutive calendar days.
Layoffs are suspensions without pay lasting or expected to last morethan 7 consecutive calendar days, initiated by the employer withoutprejudice to the worker.
Other separations, which are not published separately but are in-cluded in total separations, are terminations of employment becauseof discharge, permanent disability, death, retirement, transfer toanother establishment of the company, and entrance into the ArmedForces for a period expected to last more than 30 consecutive calendardays.
Relationship of labor turnover to employment series
Month-to-month changes in total employment in manufacturing in-dustries reflected by labor turnover rates are not strictly comparablewith the changes shown*in the Bureau's employment series for thefollowing reasons: (1) Accessions and separations are computed forthe entire calendar month; the employment reports refer to the payperiod which includes the 12th of the month; and (2) employees onstrike are not counted as turnover actions although such employeesare excluded from the employment estimates if the work stoppage ex-tends through the report period.
ESTIMATING METHODS
The principal features of the procedure used to estimate employ-ment for the establishment statistics are (1) the use of the "linkrelative" technique, which is a form of ratio estimation, (2) periodicadjustment of employment levels to new benchmarks, and (3) the useof size and regional stratification.
The "link relative" technique
From a sample composed of establishments reporting for both theprevious and current months, the ratio of current month employmentto that of the previous month is computed. This is called a "linkrelative." The estimates of employment (all employees, including pro-duction and nonproduction workers together) for the current monthare obtained by multiplying the estimates for the previous month bythese "link relatives." In addition, small bias correction factors areapplied to selected employment estimates each month. The size of thebias correction factors is determined from past experience. Otherfeatures of the general procedures are described in table K.
Size and regional stratification
A number of industries are stratified by size of establishmentand/or by region, and the stratified production- or nonsupervisoryworker-data are used to weight the hours and earnings into broader in-dustry groupings. Accordingly, the basic estimating cell for anemployment, hours, or earnings series, as the term is used in the sum-mary of computational methods in table K, may be a whole industryor a size stratum, a region stratum, or a size stratum of a region withinan industry. The labor turnover estimates are stratified by industryonly.
Benchmark adjustments
Employment estimates are compared periodically with comprehen-sive counts of employment which provide "benchmarks" for thevarious nonagricultural industries, and appropriate adjustments aremade as indicated. The industry estimates are currently projectedfrom March 1978 levels. Normally, benchmark adjustments are madeannually.
The primary sources of benchmark information are employmentdata, by industry, compiled quarterly by States agencies from reportsof establishments covered under State unemployment insurance laws.These tabulations cover about 98 percent of employees onnonagricultural payrolls in the United States. Benchmark data for theresidual are obtained from the records of the Social Security Ad-ministration, the Interstate Commerce Commission, and a number ofother agencies in private industry or government.
The estimates for the benchmark month are compared with newbenchmark levels, industry by industry. If revisions are necessary, themonthly series of estimates between benchmark periods are adjustedbetween the new benchmark and the preceding one, and the new ben-chmark for each industry is then carried forward progressively to thecurrent month by use of the sample trends. Thus, under this pro-cedure, the benchmark is used to establish the level of employment;the sample is used to measure the month-to-month changes in thelevel. A comparison of the actual amounts of revisions made at thetime of the March 1979 benchmark adjustment is shown in table L.
Data for all months since the last benchmark to which the series hasbeen adjusted are subject to revision. Revised data are published assoon as possible after each benchmark revision.

merit." This design is an optimum allocation design among stratasince the sampling variance is proportional to the average size ofestablishments. Under this type of design, large establishments fall in-to the sample with certainty. The size of the sample for the various in-dustries is determined empirically on the basis of experience and ofcost considerations. In a manufacturing industry in which a high pro-portion of total employment is concentrated in relatively fewestablishments, a large percent of total employment is included in thesample. Consequently, the sample design for such industries provides

for a complete census of the large establishments with only a fewchosen from among the smaller establishments or none at all if theconcentration of employment is great enough. On the other hand, inan industry in which a large proportion of total employment is insmall establishments, the sample design calls for inclusion of all largeestablishments and also for a substantial number of the small ones.Many industries in the trade and services divisions fall into thiscategory. To keep the sample to a size which can be handled byavailable resources, it is necessary to design samples for these in-dustries with a smaller proportion of universe employment than is thecase for most manufacturing industries. Since individualestablishments in these nonmanufacturing divisions generally showless fluctuation from regular cyclical or seasonal patterns than doestablishments in manufacturing industries, these smaller samples (interms of employment) generally produce reliable estimates.
In the context of the BLS employment and labor turnover statisticsprograms, with their emphasis on producing timely data at minimumcost, a sample must be obtained which will provide coverage of a suf-ficiently large segment of the universe to provide reasonably reliableestimates that can be published promptly and regularly. The presentsample meets these specifications for most industries. With its use, theBLS is able to produce preliminary estimates each month for many in-dustries and for many geographic levels within a few weeks after thereference period, and, at a somewhat later date, statistics in con-siderably greater industrial detail.
Coverage
The BLS sample of establishment employment and payrolls is thelargest monthly sampling operation in the field of social statistics.Table M shows the approximate proportion of total employment ineach industry division covered by the group of establishments fur-nishing monthly employment data. The coverage for individual in-dustries within the division may vary from the proportions shown.Table N shows the approximate coverage, in terms of employment, ofthe labor turnover sample.

Since a few establishments do not report payroll and hoursinformation, hours and earnings estimates may be based on aslightly smaller sample than employment estimates.
National estimates of Federal employment by agency are pro-vided to BLS by the Office of Personnel Management. Detailed In-dustry estimates for the Executive Branch, as well as State and »festimates of Federal employment, are baaed on a sample of 4,700reports covering about 55 percent of employment In Federalestablishment*.

adjusts the estimates for changes in the industrial classification of in-dividual establishments (resulting from changes in their product whichare not reflected in the levels of estimates until the data are adjusted tonew benchmarks). In fact, at the more detailed industry levels, par-ticularly within manufacturing, changes in classification are the majorcause of benchmark adjustments. Another cause of differences arisesfrom improvements in the quality of the benchmark data.

Reliability of the employment estimates
Although the relatively large size of the BLS establishment sampleassures a high degree of accuracy, the estimates derived from it maydiffer from the figures that would be obtained if it were possible totake a complete census using the same schedules and procedures. Asdiscussed under the previous section, a "link relative" technique is us-ed to estimate employment. This requires the use of the previousmonth's estimate as the base in computing the current month'sestimate. Thus, small sampling and response errors may cumulateover several months. To remove this accumulated error, the estimatesare usually adjusted annually to new benchmarks. In addition to tak-ing account of sampling and response errors, the benchmark revision
The hours and earnings estimates for basic estimating cells are notsubject to benchmark revisions, although the broader groupings maybe affected slightly by changes in employment weights. The hours andearnings estimates, however, are subject to sampling errors which maybe expressed as relative errors of the estimates. (A relative error is astandard error expressed as a percent of the estimate.) Relative errorsfor major industries are presented in table O and for individual in-dustries with the specified number of employees in table P. Thechances are about 2 out of 3 that the hours and earnings estimatesfrom the sample would differ by a smaller percentage than the relativeerror from the averages that would have been obtained from a com-plete census.
176Digitized for FRASER http://fraser.stlouisfed.org/ Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis
One measure of the reliability of the employment estimates for in-dividual industries is the root-mean-square error (RMSE). Themeasure is the standard deviation adjusted for the bias in estimates:
Table Q. Errors of preliminary employment estimates
RMSE = V(Standard Deviation)2 + (Bias)2
If the bias is small, the chances are about 2 out of 3 that an estimatefrom the sample would differ from its benchmark by less than theroot-mean-square error. The chances are about 19 out of 20 that thedifference would be less than twice the root-mean-square error.
Approximations of the root-mean-square errors (based on the mostrecent benchmark revisions) of differences between final estimatesand benchmarks are presented in table P.

For the two most recent months, estimates of employment, hours,and earnings are preliminary and are so footnoted in the tables. Thesefigures are based on less than the total sample and are revised when allthe reports in the sample have been received. Table Q presents root-mean-square errors of the amounts of revisions that may be expectedbetween the preliminary and final levels of employment andpreliminary and final month-to-month changes. Revisions ofpreliminary hours and earnings estimates are normally not greaterthan 0.1 of an hour for weekly hours and 1 cent for hourly earnings.
STATISTICS FOR STATES AND AREAS
State and area employment, hours, earnings, and labor turnoverdata are collected and prepared by State agencies in cooperation withBLS. The area statistics relate to metropolitan areas. Definitions forall areas are published each year in the issue of Employment and Earn-ings that contains State and area annual averages (usually the Mayissue). Changes in definitions are noted as they occur. Additional in-dustry detail may be obtained from the State agencies listed on the in-side back cover of each issue. These statistics are based on the sameestablishment reports used by BLS for preparing national estimates.For employment, the sum of the State figures may differ slightly fromthe equivalent official U.S. totals on a national basis, because someStates have more recent benchmarks than others and because of theeffects of differing industrial and geographic stratification.
For the States and the areas shown in the B and C sections of thisperiodical, all the annual average data for the detailed industrystatistics currently published by each cooperating State agency arepresented (from the earliest date of availability of each series) in asummary volume published annually by the BLS.

PRODUCTIVITY DATA
Tables C-10, C-ll, and C-12 are compiled by the Bureau of LaborStatistics from establishment data and from estimates of compensa-tion and gross national product supplied by the U.S. Department ofCommerce and the Federal Reserve Board.
Definitions
Hours of wage and salary workers in nonagriculturalestablishments refer to hours paid for all employees—productionworkers, nonsupervisory workers, and salaried workers.
Output is the constant-dollar market value of final goods and ser-vices produced in a given period. Indexes of output per hour of laborinput, or labor productivity, measure changes in the volume of goodsand services produced per unit of labor.
Compensation per hour includes wages and salaries of employeesplus employers' contributions for social insurance and private benefitplans. The data also include an estimate of wages, salaries, and sup-plementary payments for the self-employed, except for nonfinancialcorporations, in which there are no self-employed.
177Digitized for FRASER http://fraser.stlouisfed.org/ Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis
Real compensation per hour is compensation per hour adjusted toeliminate the effect of changes in the Consumer Price Index for AllUrban Consumers (CPI-U).
Unit labor costs measure the labor compensation cost required toproduce one unit of output and are derived by dividing compensationper hour by output per hour. Unit nonlaborpayments include profits,depreciation, interest, and indirect taxes per unit of output. They arecomputed by subtracting compensation of all persons from thecurrent-dollar gross national product and dividing by output. In thesetables, unit nonlabor costs contain all the components of unitnonlabor payments except unit profits. Unit profits include corporateprofits and inventory valuation adjustments per unit of output.
The implicit price deflator is derived by dividing the current-dollarestimate of gross product by the constant-dollar estimate, making thedeflator, in effect, a price index for gross product of the sectorreported.
Notes on the data
For the private business sector and the nonfarm business sectorthese indexes relate to the gross domestic product less household an<institutions, owner-occupied housing, and statistical discrepancy. Fothe nonfinancial coporate sector, the indexes refer to the grosdomestic product of nonfiancial coporate business.
Manufacturing data have been revised to reflect revisions in thFederal Reserve Board Index of Industrial Production. Output dat;are supplied by the Bureau of Economic Analysis, U.S. Departmenof Commerce, and the Federal Reserve Board. Quarterly measurehave been adjusted by the Bureau of Labor Statistics to annuaestimates of output (gross product originating) from the Bureau oEconomic Analysis. Compensation and hours data are from th<Bureau of Economic Analysis and the Bureau of Labor Statistics.
State and Area Unemployment Data(E tables)
FEDERAL-STATE COOPERATIVE PROGRAM
Labor force and unemployment estimates for States, labor marketareas (LMA's), and other areas covered under Federal assistance pro-grams are developed by State employment security agencies under aFederal-State cooperative program. The local unemploymentestimates which are derived from standardized procedures developedby BLS are the basis for determining eligibility of an area for benefitsunder Federal programs such as the Comprehensive Employment andTraining Act, the Public Works Employment Act, and the PublicWorks and Economic Development Act.
ESTIMATING METHODS
Labor force and unemployment in 10 large States: New York,California, Illinois, Ohio, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Michigan,Texas, Massachusetts, and Florida; and two areas: Los Angeles-LongBeach metropolitan area and New York City, are sufficently reliableto be used directly from the CPS. For a description of the CPS con-cepts see "Household Data," above.
Monthly employment and unemployment estimates in the remain-ing 40 States and 214 labor market areas are prepared in severalstages.
1. Preliminary estimate—employment: The total employmentestimate is based primarily on data from the survey of establishmentswhich produces an estimate of payroll employment. This place-of-work estimate must be adjusted to refer to place of residences as usedin the CPS. Factors for adjusting from place of work to place ofresidence have been developed for the major categories of employ-ment by class of worker and industry on the basis of employment rela-tionships which existed at the time of the 1970 Decennial Census.These factors are applied to the payroll employment estimates for thecurrent period to obtain adjusted employment estimates.2. Preliminary estimate—unemployment: In the current month, theestimate of unemployment is an aggregate of the estimates for each ofthree building block categories: (1) Persons who were previouslyemployed in industries covered by State unemployment insurance (UI)laws; (2) those previously employed in industries not covered by theselaws; and (3) those who were either entering the labor force for thefirst time or reentering after a period of separation. This is referred tobelow as the Ul-based estimate.
An estimate for those previously employed in covered industries iiderived from a count of current unemployment insurance claimantsplus estimates of claimants whose benefits have been exhausted, thos<persons disqualified from receiving benefits for nonmonetary reason:(because they quit, were discharged for cause, etc., but would otherwise have been eligible), and persons who either filed claims late or noat all.
The estimate of those previously employed in industries not coverecby UI is derived by applying to the employment estimate for each non-covered industry or class of worker subgroup in the State, the ratio olcovered unemployment to covered employment weighted by factorsreflecting national historical relationships.
For the third category, new entrants and reentrants into the laboiforce, a composite estimate is developed from equations that relate thetotal entrants into the labor force to the experienced unemployed andthe experienced labor force. For each month, the estimate of entrantsinto the labor force is a function of: (a) the month of the year; (b) thelevel of the experienced unemployed; (c) the level of the experiencedlabor force; and (d) proportion of the working age population that isconsidered "youth." The composite estimate of total entrants isdefined as:
U = A (X + E) + BX, whereU = total entrant unemploymentE = total employmentX = total experienced unemployment
A,B = synthetic factors incoporating seasonal variation andan assumed relationship between the proportion ofyouths in the working population and the historicalrelationship of entrants to the experienced unemployed(B factor) or the experienced labor force (A factor).
3. Correction factors for employment and unemployment are therapplied at the State level to the Ul-based estimates obtained above foieach of the 40 States and the District of Columbia. These correctiorfactors are based on the ratio of the CPS to the Ul-based estimates foithe 6 month period ending in the current month (e.g. a 6-month mov-ing average).
4. Substate adjustment for additivity. Independent estimates o)employment and unemployment are prepared both for the State (ob-tained directly from the CPS in the 10 large States or by the Ul-basecmethod in the remaining States), and labor market areas (LMA's
178Digitized for FRASER http://fraser.stlouisfed.org/ Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis
within the State. The total of the geographic areas in the LMA's ex-hausts the geographic boundries of the State. A proportional adjust-ment is applied to all substate LMA estimates to ensure that thesubstate estimates of employment and unemployment add to the in-dependent State totals. In California and New York, which also havesubstate areas taken directly from the CPS, the additivity adjustmentfor the remaining areas is applied to the State total minus the directCPS area.
5. Benchmark correction procedures. Once each year monthlyestimates prepared by State employment security agencies using UI-based estimating procedures are adjusted, or benchmarked, by BLS tothe annual average CPS estimates for the 40 States for which monthly
CPS estimates are not available. This adjustment is necessary becausethe State-prepared estimates are not as reliable as the CPS annualaverages due to differences in State UI laws, the structual limitationsof the Ul-based estimating method, and errors in the UI data.
The benchmarked estimates are produced in three stages. First, themonthly Ul-based estimates are adjusted by the ratio of the CPS tothe Ul-based annual averages. Second, the difference between theratio of annual averages for two consecutive years is wedged into themonthly estimates in order to minimize the disturbance to the originalseries. Finally, the second-stage estimates are forced into agreementwith CPS annual averages. In the 10 States which use CPS estimatesmonthly, no benchmark correction is required, as the average of the12 monthly State CPS estimates will equal the CPS annual averages.
Seasonal adjustment
Over a course of a year, the size of the Nation's labor force, theevels of employment and unemployment, and other measures ofabor market activity undergo sharp fluctuations due to such seasonalvents as changes in weather, reduced or expanded production,larvests, major holidays, and the opening and closing of schools,because these seasonal events follow a more or less regular pattern:ach year, their influence on statistical trends can be eliminated by ad-usting the statistics from month to month. These adjustments make it:asier to observe the cyclical and other nonseasonal movements in theeries. In evaluating changes in a seasonally adjusted series, it is im-)ortant to note that seasonal adjustment is merely an approximation>ased on past experience. Seasonally adjusted estimates have a>roader margin of possible error than the original data on which theyire based, since they are subject not only to sampling and other errors>ut are also affected by the uncertainties of the seasonal adjustment>rocess itself. Seasonally adjusted series for selected labor force andstablishment data are published regularly in Employment and Earn-ngs.
The seasonal adjustment programs used for these series are based»n an adaptation of the standard ratio-to-moving average method,'hey provide for "moving" adjustment factors to take account ofhanging seasonal patterns. A detailed description of the method isiven in the publication, The X-ll Variant of the Census Method IIeasonal Adjustment Program, Technical Paper No. 15, Bureau ofle Census (1967).
Beginning in January 1980, the BLS introduced two majorlodifications in the seasonal adjustment methodology for data fromle household survey. First, the data are being seasonally adjustedith a new procedure called X-11/ARIMA, which was developed attatistics Canada as an extension of the existing standard X-lllethod. A detailed description of the procedure appears in The X-llRIM A Seasonal Adjustment Method, by Estela Bee Dagum,tatistics Canada Catalogue No. 12-564E, September 1979. The X-llrocedure was originally developed at the Bureau of the Census andad been used by the BLS to seasonally adjust labor force series sinceJ73. Tests have shown that use of the X-ll ARIMA procedure,hich essentially places more emphasis on recent data, provides betterasonal adjustments than does the X-ll method alone.The second change is that seasonal factors are now being calculated>r use during the first 6 months of the year rather than for the entire;ar. In July of each year, the BLS will calculate and publish (inmployment and Earnings) a new set of seasonal factors for use in thecond half, based on the experience through June. Revisions ofstorical data for the most recent 5 years will continue to be madeice a year, at the beginning of each calendar year.
All civilian labor force and unemployment rate statistics, as well asthe major employment and unemployment estimates, are computedby aggregating independently adjusted series. For example, for eachof the three major labor force components—agricultural employment,nonagricultural employment, and unemployment—data for four sex-age groups (males and females under and over 20 years of age) areseparately adjusted for seasonal variation and are then added to deriveseasonally adjusted total figures. In order to provide seasonally ad-justed total employment and civilian labor force estimates, the ap-propriate series are aggregated. The official unemployment rate for allcivilian workers is derived by dividing the estimate for total unemploy-ment (the sum of 4 seasonally adjusted sex-age components) by thecivilian labor force (the sum of 12 seasonally adjusted sex-age com-ponents).
Revised seasonally adjusted data for selected labor force series bas-ed on the experience through December 1979, new seasonal adjust-ment factors to be used to calculate the overall unemployment rate forthe first 6 months of 1980, and a description of the current seasonaladjustment methodology are published in the January 1980 issue ofEmployment and Earnings. Revised seasonally adjusted data cover-ing the entire 5-year revision period for a broader range of labor forceseries appear in the February 1980 issue of this publication. Many ad-ditional series, which are either components or aggregates of the seriespresented, are available from the BLS upon request.
Beginning in July 1980, the BLS also uses the X-ll ARIMAmethodology in seasonally adjusting the establishment data, whichpreviously had been computed using the BLS Seasonal FactorMethod. All series are seasonally adjusted using the multiplicativemodels under X-ll ARIMA. Seasonal adjustment factors used incalculating the current estimates are based on data through March of1980. The ARIMA model options for projecting the data series for 1year ahead have not been used in seasonally adjusting the establish-ment series.
Seasonal adjustment factors are directly applied to the componentlevels. Seasonally adjusted totals for most of these series are then ob-tained by taking a weighted average of the seasonally adjusted datafor the component series. Seasonally adjusted average weekly earningsare the product of seasonally adjusted average hourly earnings andseasonally adjusted weekly hours. Average weekly earnings in cons-tant dollars, seasonally adjusted, are obtained by dividing averageweekly earnings, seasonally adjusted, by the seasonally adjusted. Con-sumer Price Index for Urban Wage Earners and Clerical Workers(CPI-W), and multiplying by 100. Indexes of aggregate weekly hours,seasonally adjusted, are obtained by multiplying average weeklyhours, seasonally adjusted, by production or nonsupervisory
179Digitized for FRASER http://fraser.stlouisfed.org/ Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis
workers, seasonally adjusted, and dividing by the 1967 base. For totalprivate, total goods-producing private service-producing, trade,manufacturing, and durable and nondurable goods industries, the in-dexes of aggregate weekly hours, seasonally adjusted, are obtained bysumming the aggregate weekly hours, seasonally adjusted, for the ap-propriate component industries and dividing by the 1967 base.
Seasonal factors were not computed for a number of seriescharacterized by small seasonal components relative to their trend-cycle and/or irregular components. These unadjusted series areshown and used in the aggregation to broader level seasonally ad-justed series.
The seasonally adjusted establishment data for Federal Governmentare based on a series which excludes the Christmas temporary helpemployed by the Postal Service in December. The employment ofthese workers constitutes the only significant seasonal change inFederal Government employment during the winter months. Further-
more, the volume of such employment may change substantially frcyear to year because of administrative decisions by the Postal ServiiHence, it was considered desirable to exclude this group from the d«upon which the seasonally adjusted series is based.
For labor turnover rates, seasonal adjustment factors are applidirectly to the component series. These series are then aggregatedobtain total levels (total accessions and total separations). These Utors are derived by the X-ll ARIMA Method using the trading doption. As a result, these series are adjusted for the number of timeach day of the week occurs in a given month, as well as for the morof the year.
The revised seasonally adjusted series for the establishment d;reflect experience through March 1980. Seasonal factors to be used 1current adjustment appear in the July 1980 issue of Employment aEarnings.
