Employment and UnemploymentDevelopments, March 1994
Nonfarm payroll employment rebounded sharply inMarch from weather-related weakness in the prior 2months. The unemployment rate, at 6.5 percent, was thesame as it had been in February.
The March increase of 456,000 in the number of payrolljobs brought growth in the first quarter back in line withthat for the fourth quarter of last year. The averageworkweek also expanded markedly following February'sweather-induced declines.
UnemploymentThe unemployment rate was 6.5 percent in March, the
same as in February, and the number of unemployedpersons remained at 8.5 million. Unemployment rates formost worker groups were little changed from February toMarch.
Changes over the month in several measures partiallyreversed unusually large movements in February. Thenumber of persons jobless for less than 5 weeks rose by184,000 in March, while the number who were joblessfrom 5 to 14 weeks fell by 178,000. (See table A-12.) Thenumber of persons employed part time for economic rea-sons—often referred to as the "partially unem-ployed" — rose by 349,000 to a total of 5.0 million in March(table A-6). It is important to note that data from thehousehold survey continue to reflect the transition to a re-vised questionnaire and new collection methods whichwere implemented in January.
Total employment and the labor forceTotal employment was 122.0 million in March, little
changed from February. The employment-populationratio — the proportion of the working-age population withjobs — also was about unchanged at 62.2 percent. (See tableA-3.) A total of 7.2 million workers (not seasonallyadjusted), or 5.9 percent of all employed persons, held twoor more jobs in March (table A-35).
The labor force participation rate in March was 66.6percent (seasonally adjusted), and there were 130.6 millionpeople in the labor force, about the same as in February.(See table A-3.)
Discouraged workersThe number of discouraged workers — those who
wanted a job but gave up searching for work because they
believed there were no jobs to be found —was about530,000 in March (not seasonally adjusted). (See tableA-34.)
Industry payroll employmentNonfarm payroll employment climbed by 456,000 in
March, as several industries rebounded from depressedlevels related to severe winter weather in January andFebruary. Monthly job growth for the first quarteraveraged 208,000, about the same healthy advance as inthe last quarter of 1993. (See table B-3.)
The construction industry added 74,000 jobs in Marchon a seasonally adjusted basis. After 2 months ofweather-related declines totaling 22,000, constructionagain showed the strength it exhibited in late 1993. Miningemployment was down slightly in March, as oil and gasextraction continued to lose jobs.
Manufacturing employment edged up by 12,000 inMarch, for the sixth straight month of growth, duringwhich time 88,000 jobs have been added. Over-the-monthgains were recorded in fabricated metals, industrialmachinery, and electronic equipment; employment ineach of these industries has been trending upward sincelast summer. There were job losses, however, in lumberand wood products, transportation equipment, andinstruments.
Employment in transportation and public utilities grewby 21,000, due to an unusually large increase in thetransportation component. Total transportation employ-ment (3.6 million) has now surpassed the previous peaklevel reached in December 1990. The number of jobs inretail trade rose by 74,000 in March, with gains distributedacross its component industries. Eating and drinkingestablishments regained the jobs lost as a result of theextreme winter weather, but their employment growth inthe first quarter was still below normal. Wholesale tradeemployment rose slightly (10,000); this industry has addedabout 150,000 jobs since September 1992.
The services industry added 223,000 jobs in March, asmany of its weather-sensitive components bounced back.Business, health, auto repair, and educational services, aswell as amusement and recreation and hotels and otherlodging places, all contributed to this increase. Theaverage rise in services employment for the first 3 monthsof the year (about 100,000) is in line with the trend for

1993. The finance industry added 10,000 jobs in March. Ingovernment, increases were registered at the State andlocal level, while the Federal Government continued tolose jobs.
Weekly hoursThe average workweek for production or nonsuperviso-
ry workers on private nonfarm payrolls rebounded by 0.4hour from February's large weather-related decline, to34.7 hours, seasonally adjusted. The manufacturingworkweek not only reversed February's decline but roseby an additional 0.4 hour, for a total over-the-month gainof 1.0 hour. The manufacturing workweek and overtimehours are at post-World War II highs of 42.2 and 4.8hours, respectively. (See table B-8.)
The index of aggregate hours of private production or
nonsupervisory workers on nonfarm payrolls jumped1.8 percent to 126.9 (1982=100) in March. The manu-facturing index shot up 2.5 percent to 104.0. (Seetable B-9.)
Hourly and weekly earningsAverage hourly earnings of private production or non-
supervisory workers on nonfarm payrolls edged up by 0.1percent in March, after seasonal adjustment. Averageweekly earnings rose by 1.3 percent, reflecting the increasein the workweek. Before seasonal adjustment, averagehourly earnings slipped 1 cent in March to $11.05, whileaverage weekly earnings were up $4-08 to $380.12. Overthe year, average hourly earnings increased by 2.4 percentand average weekly earnings by 3.6 percent. (See tablesB-ll andB-15.)

2 The population figures are not adjusted for seasonal variation.3 Data for 1994 are not directly comparable with data for 1993 and
earlier years because of the introduction of a major redesign of the Current
Population Survey (household survey) questionnaire and collectionmethodology and the introduction of 1990 census-based populationcontrols, adjusted for the estimated undercount. For additional information,see "Revisions in the Current Population Survey Effective January 1994" inthe February 1994 issue of Employment and Earnings.

because of the introduction of a major redesign of the Current Population Survey(household survey) questionnaire and collection methodology and the introduction of1990 census-based population controls, adjusted for the estimated undercount. Foradditional information, see "Revisions in the Current Population Survey EffectiveJanuary 1994" in the February 1994 issue of Employment and Earnings.

1 Data not shown where base is less than 75,000.NOTE: In the summer months, the educational attainment levels of youth not
enrolled in school are increased by the temporary movement of high school andcollege students into that group. Detail for the above race and Hispanic-origingroups will not sum to totals because data for the "other races" group are not
26
presented and Hispanics are included in both the white and black populationgroups. Data for 1994 are not directly comparable with data for 1993 and earlieryears. For additional information, see "Revisions in the Current Population SurveyEffective January 1994" in the February 1994 issue of Employment and Earnings.

A Note on Average Hourly Earningsin Aircraft (SIC 3721) and Guided Missilesand Space Vehicles (SIC 3761) Manufacturing
For many years, the Bureau of Labor Statistics averagehourly earning series for production workers in aircraftmanufacturing (SIC 3721) and guided missiles and spacevehicles manufacturing (SIC 3761) have been used toescalate labor costs in contracts between aerospacecompanies and their customers. Although the Bureau'sseries by definition take account of traditional wage ratechanges, they do not capture "lump-sum payments toworkers in lieu of general wage increases" which werenegotiated in aerospace manufacturers' collective bargain-ing agreements beginning in late 1983.
Because of special circumstances in the aerospace
industry, BLS has calculated average hourly earningsseries for SIC 3721 and SIC 3761 which include lump-sumpayments. These series, beginning in October 1983, theeffective date of the first aerospace bargaining agreementusing lump-sum payments, were published in the June1988 issue of Employment and Earnings. Current and yearearlier data are presented in table C-2a along with theaverage hourly earnings series produced as part of theCurrent Employment Statistics program. An explanationof the methodology used to derive these series appears inthe Explanatory Notes of this publication.

1 Data are obtained directly from the Current Population Survey (CPS). See theExplanatory Notes and Estimates of Error Section for Region, State, and AreaLabor Force Data.
P = preliminary.NOTE: Data refer to place of residence. Data, beginning 1994, are not directly
comparable with those for 1993 and prior years as a result of the redesign of the
CPS. In addition, data comparisons are affected by the incorporation of 1990census-based population controls (covering the 1990-93 period) and othermethodological changes. For additional information, see "Revisions in State andArea Estimates Effective January 1994" in the March 1994 issue of Employmentand Earnings.

Explanatory Notes and Estimates of Error
Introduction
The statistics in this periodical are compiled from twomajor sources: (1) household interviews, and (2) reportsfrom employers.
Data based on household interviews are obtained fromthe Current Population Survey (CPS), a sample survey ofthe population 16 years of age and over. The survey isconducted each month by the Bureau of the Census for theBureau of Labor Statistics and provides comprehensivedata on the labor force, the employed, and the unem-ployed, classified by such characteristics as age, sex, race,family relationship, marital status, occupation, andindustry attachment. The survey also provides data on thecharacteristics and past work experience of those not inthe labor force. The information is collected by trainedinterviewers from a sample of about 60,000 householdslocated in 729 sample areas. These areas are chosen torepresent all counties and independent cities in the U.S.,with coverage in 50 States and the District of Columbia.The data collected are based on the activity or statusreported for the calendar week including the 12th of themonth.
Data based on establishment records are compiled eachmonth from mail questionnaires and telephone interviewsby the Bureau of Labor Statistics, in cooperation withState agencies. The Current Employment Statistics (CES)survey is designed to provide industry information onnonfarm wage and salary employment, average weeklyhours, average hourly earnings, and average weeklyearnings for the Nation, States, and metropolitan areas.The employment, hours, and earnings series are based onpayroll reports from a sample of over 370,000 establish-ments employing over 45 million nonfarm wage and salaryworkers. The data relate to all workers, full or part time,who receive pay during the payroll period which includesthe 12th of the month.
RELATION BETWEEN THE HOUSEHOLD ANDESTABLISHMENT SERIES
The household and establishment data complement oneanother, each providing significant types of informationthat the other cannot suitably supply. Population charac-teristics, for example, are obtained only from the
household survey, whereas detailed industrial classifica-tions are much more reliably derived from establishmentreports.
Data from these two sources differ from each otherbecause of variations in definitions and coverage, source ofinformation, methods of collection, and estimatingprocedures. Sampling variability and response errors areadditional reasons for discrepancies. The major factorswhich have a differential effect on the levels and trends ofthe two data series are as follows.
EmploymentCoverage. The household survey definition of employmentcomprises wage and salary workers (including domesticsand other private household workers), self-employedpersons, and unpaid workers who worked 15 hours ormore during the reference week in family-operatedenterprises. Employment in both agricultural and non-agricultural industries is included. The payroll surveycovers only wage and salary employees on the payrolls ofnonfarm establishments.
Multiple job holding. The household survey providesinformation on the work status of the population withoutduplication, since each person is classified as employed,unemployed, or not in the labor force. Employed personsholding more than one job are counted only once. In thefigures based on establishment reports, persons whoworked in more than one establishment during thereporting period are counted each time their names appearon payrolls.
Unpaid absences from jobs. The household survey includesamong the employed all civilians who had jobs but werenot at work during the reference week —that is, were notworking but had jobs from which they were temporarilyabsent because of illness, vacation, bad weather, childcareproblems, labor-management disputes, or because theywere taking time off for various other reasons, even if theywere not paid by their employers for the time off. In thefigures based on payroll reports, persons on leave paid forby the company are included, but those on leave withoutpay for the entire payroll period are not.

Hours of workThe household survey measures hours worked for all
workers whereas the payroll survey measures hours forprivate production and nonsupervisory workers paid forby employers. In the household survey, all persons with ajob but not at work are excluded from the hours distribu-tions and the computations of average hours at work. Inthe payroll survey, production or nonsupervisory em-ployees on paid vacation, paid holiday, or paid sick leaveare included and assigned the number of hours for whichthey were paid during the reporting period.
EarningsThe household survey measures the earnings of wage
and salary workers in all occupations and industries inboth the private and public sectors. Data refer to the usualearnings received from the worker's sole or primary job.Data from the establishment survey generally refer toaverage earnings of production and related workers inmining and manufacturing, construction workers inconstruction, and nonsupervisory employees in privateservice-producing industries. For a comprehensive discus-sion of the various earnings series available from thehousehold and establishment surveys, see BLS Measuresof Compensation, BLS Bulletin 2239 (1986).
COMPARABILITY OF HOUSEHOLD DATA WITHOTHER SERIES
Unemployment insurance data. The unemployed totalfrom the household survey includes all persons who didnot have a job during the reference week, were currentlyavailable for a job, and were looking for work or werewaiting to be called back to a job from which they had beenlaid off, whether or not they were eligible for unemploy-ment insurance. Figures on unemployment insuranceclaims, prepared by the Employment and TrainingAdministration of the U.S. Department of Labor, exclude,in addition to otherwise ineligible persons who do not fileclaims for benefits, persons who have exhausted theirbenefit rights, new workers who have not earned rights tounemployment insurance, and persons losing jobs notcovered by unemployment insurance systems (someworkers in agriculture, domestic services, and religiousorganizations, and self-employed and unpaid familyworkers).
In addition, the qualifications for drawing unemploy-ment compensation differ from the definition of unem-ployment used in the household survey. For example,persons with a job but not at work and persons workingonly a few hours during the week are sometimes eligible forunemployment compensation but are classified as
employed rather than unemployed in the householdsurvey.
For an examination of the similarities and differencesbetween State insured unemployment and total unemploy-ment, see "Measuring Total and State Insured Unemploy-ment" by Gloria P. Green in the June 1971 issue of theMonthly Labor Review.
Agricultural employment estimates of the U.S. Departmentof Agriculture. The principal differences in coverage arethe inclusion of persons under 16 in the NationalAgricultural Statistics Service series and the treatment ofdual jobholders, who are counted more than once if theywork on more than one farm during the reporting period.There are also wide differences in sampling techniques anddata collecting and estimating methods, which cannot bereadily measured in terms of their impact on differences inthe levels and trends of the two series.
COMPARABILITY OF PAYROLL EMPLOYMENTDATA WITH OTHER SERIES
Statistics on manufacturers and business, Bureau of theCensus. BLS establishment statistics on employment differfrom employment counts derived by the Bureau of theCensus from its censuses or sample surveys of manufactur-ing and business establishments. The major reasons fornoncomparability are different treatment of business unitsconsidered parts of an establishment, such as centraladministrative offices and auxiliary units; the industrialclassification of establishments; and different reportingpatterns by multiunit companies. There are also differ-ences in the scope of the industries covered, e.g., theCensus of Business excludes professional services, publicutilities, and financial establishments, whereas these areincluded in the BLS statistics.
County Business Patterns, Bureau of the Census. Data inCounty Business Patterns (CBP) differ from BLS establish-ment statistics in the treatment of central administrativeoffices and auxiliary units. Differences may also arise be-cause of industrial classification and reporting practices.In addition, CBP excludes interstate railroads and most ofgovernment, and coverage is incomplete for some of thenonprofit agencies.
Employment covered by State unemployment insuranceprograms. Most nonfarm wage and salary workers arecovered by the unemployment insurance programs.However, some employees, such as those working inparochial schools and churches, are not covered byunemployment insurance, whereas they are included inthe BLS establishment statistics.

Household Data("A" tables, monthly; "D" tables, quarterly)
COLLECTION AND COVERAGE
Statistics on the employment status of the populationand related data are compiled by BLS using data from theCurrent Population Survey (CPS). This monthly survey ofhouseholds is conducted for BLS by the Bureau of theCensus through a scientifically selected sample designedto represent the civilian noninstitutional population.Respondents are interviewed to obtain information aboutthe employment status of each member of the household16 years of age and over. The inquiry relates to activity orstatus during the calendar week, Sunday through Satur-day, which includes the 12th day of the month. This isknown as the "reference week." Actual field interviewingis conducted in the following week, referred to as the"survey week."
Each month about 60,000 occupied units are eligible forinterview. Some 2,600 of these households are contactedbut interviews are not obtained because the occupants arenot at home after repeated calls or are unavailable forother reasons. This represents a noninterview rate for thesurvey that ranges between 4 and 5 percent. In addition tothe 60,000 occupied units, there are 11,500 sample units inan average month which are visited but found to be vacantor otherwise not eligible for enumeration. Part of thesample is changed each month. The rotation plan, asexplained later, provides for three-fourths of the sample tobe common from one month to the next, and one-half to becommon with the same month a year earlier.
CONCEPTS AND DEFINITIONS
The concepts and definitions underlying labor forcedata have been modified, but not substantially altered,since the inception of the survey in 1940; those in use as ofJanuary 1994 are as follows:
Civilian noninstitutional population. Included are persons16 years of age and older residing in the 50 States and theDistrict of Columbia who are not inmates of institutions(e.g., penal and mental facilities, homes for the aged), andwho are not on active duty in the Armed Forces.
Employed persons. All persons who, during the referenceweek, (a) did any work at all (at least 1 hour) as paidemployees in their own business, profession, or on theirown farm, or who worked 15 hours or more as unpaidworkers in an enterprise operated by a member of thefamily, and (b) all those who were not working but whohad jobs or businesses from which they were temporarilyabsent because of vacation, illness, bad weather, childcare
problems, maternity or paternity leave, labor-manage-ment dispute, job training, or other family or personalreasons, whether or not they were paid for the time off orwere seeking other jobs.
Each employed person is counted only once, even if he orshe holds more than one job. For purposes of occupationand industry classification, multiple jobholders arecounted in the job at which they worked the greatestnumber of hours during the reference week.
Included in the total are employed citizens of foreigncountries who are temporarily in the United States but notliving on the premises of an embassy. Excluded arepersons whose only activity consisted of work around theirown house (painting, repairing, or own home housework)or volunteer work for religious, charitable, and otherorganizations.
Unemployed persons. All persons who had no employmentduring the reference week, were available for work, exceptfor temporary illness, and had made specific efforts to findemployment some time during the 4-week period endingwith the reference week. Persons who were waiting to berecalled to a job from which they had been laid off need nothave been looking for work to be classified as unemployed.
Duration of unemployment. This represents the length oftime (through the current reference week) that personsclassified as unemployed had been looking for work. Forpersons on layoff, duration of unemployment representsthe number of full weeks they had been on layoff. Meanduration is the arithmetic average computed from singleweeks of unemployment; median duration is the midpointof a distribution of weeks of unemployment.
Reason for unemployment. Unemployment is also catego-rized according to the status of individuals at the time theybegan to look for work. The reasons for unemployment aredivided into five major groups: (1) Job losers, comprised of(a) persons on temporary layoff who have been given adate to return to work or who expect to return within 6months (persons on layoff need not be looking for work toqualify as unemployed), and (b) permanent job losers,whose employment ended involuntarily and who beganlooking for work; (2) Job leavers are persons who quit orotherwise terminated their employment voluntarily andimmediately began looking for work; (3) Persons whocompleted temporary jobs, who began looking for workafter the jobs ended; (4) Reentrants are persons whopreviously worked but were out of the labor force prior tobeginning their job search; (5) New entrants are persons
158

who never worked. Each of these five categories of theunemployed can be expressed as a proportion of the entirecivilian labor force; the sum of the four rates thus equalsthe unemployment rate for all civilian workers. (Forstatistical presentation purposes, "job losers" and "per-sons who completed temporary jobs" are combined into asingle category until seasonal adjustments can be deve-loped for the separate categories.)
Jobseekers. All unemployed persons who made specificefforts to find a job sometime during the 4-week periodpreceding the survey week are classified as jobseekers.Jobseekers do not include persons classified as ontemporary layoff, who although often looking for work,are not required to do so to be classified as unemployed.Jobseekers are grouped by the methods used to seek work.Only active methods — which have the potential to resultin a job offer without further action on the part of thejobseeker — qualify as job search. Examples include goingto an employer directly or to a public or privateemployment agency, seeking assistance from friends orrelatives, placing or answering ads, or using some otheractive method. Examples of the "other" category includebeing on a union or professional register, obtainingassistance from a community organization, or waiting at adesignated labor pickup point. Passive methods, which donot qualify as job search, include reading (as opposed toanswering or placing) "help wanted" ads and taking a jobtraining course.
Labor force. This group comprises all persons classified asemployed or unemployed in accordance with the criteriadescribed above.
Unemployment rate. The unemployment rate representsthe number unemployed as a percent of the labor force.
Participation rate. This represents the proportion of thepopulation that is in the labor force.
Employment-population ratio. This represents the propor-tion of the population that is employed.
Not in the labor force. Included in this group are allpersons in the civilian noninstitutional population who areneither employed nor unemployed. Information is col-lected on their desire for and availability to take a job at thetime of the CPS interview, job search activity in the prioryear, and reason for not looking in the 4-week period priorto the survey week. This group includes discouragedworkers, defined as persons not in the labor force who wantand are available for a job and who have looked for worksometime in the past 12 months (or since the end of theirlast job if they held one within the past 12 months), but arenot currently looking, because they believe there are no
jobs available or there are none for which they wouldqualify.
Persons classified as not in the labor force who are in thesample for either their fourth or eighth month are askedadditional questions relating to job history and workseek-ing intentions. These latter data are available on aquarterly basis.
Occupation, industry, and class of worker. This informa-tion for the employed applies to the job held in thereference week. Persons with two or more jobs areclassified in the job at which they worked the greatestnumber of hours. The unemployed are classified accordingto their last job. The occupational and industrialclassification of CPS data is based on the coding systemsused in the 1990 census.
The class-of-worker breakdown assigns workers to thefollowing categories: Private and government wage andsalary workers, self-employed workers, and unpaid familyworkers. Wage and salary workers receive wages, salary,commissions, tips, or pay in kind from a private employeror from a government unit. Self-employed persons arethose who work for profit or fees in their own business,profession, trade, or farm. Only the unincorporatedself-employed are included in the self-employed categoryin the class of worker typology. Self-employed personswho respond that their businesses are incorporated areincluded among wage and salary workers, becausetechnically, they are paid employees of a corporation.Unpaid family workers are persons working without payfor 15 hours a week or more on a farm or in a businessoperated by a member of the household to whom they arerelated by birth or marriage.
Multiple jobholders. These are employed persons who,during the reference week, had either two or more jobs as awage and salary worker, were self-employed and also helda wage and salary job, or worked as an unpaid familyworker and also held a wage and salary job. A personemployed only in private households (cleaner, gardener,babysitter, etc.) who worked for two or more employersduring the reference week is not counted as a multiplejobholder, since working for several employers isconsidered an inherent characteristic of private householdwork. Also excluded are self-em ployed persons withmultiple businesses and persons with multiple jobs asunpaid family workers.
Hours of work. These statistics relate to the actual numberof hours worked during the reference week. For example,persons who normally work 40 hours a week but were offon the Columbus Day holiday would be reported asworking 32 hours, even though they were paid for theholiday. For persons working in more than one job, thepublished figures relate to the number of hours worked inall jobs during the week; all the hours are credited to the
159
Digitized for FRASER http://fraser.stlouisfed.org/ Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis
major job. Unpublished data are available for the hoursworked in each job and for usual hours.
At work part time for economic reasons. Sometimesreferred to as involuntary part time, this category refers toindividuals who gave an economic reason for working 1 to34 hours during the reference week. Economic reasonsinclude slack work or unfavorable business conditions,inability to find full-time work, and seasonal declines indemand. Those who usually work part time must alsoindicate that they want and are available to work full timeto be classified as on part time for economic reasons.
At work part time for noneconomic reasons. This groupincludes those persons who usually work part time andwere at work 1 to 34 hours during the reference week for anoneconomic reason. Noneconomic reasons include, forexample: illness or other medical limitations, childcareproblems or other family or personal obligations, school ortraining, retirement or Social Security limits on earnings,and being in a job where full-time work is less than 35hours. The group also includes those who gave aneconomic reason for usually working 1 to 34 hours but saidthey do not want to work full time or were unavailable forsuch work.
Usual full- or part-time status. Data on persons "at work"exclude persons who were temporarily absent from a joband therefore classified in the zero-hours-worked cate-gory, "with a job but not at work." These are persons whowere absent from their jobs for the entire week for suchreasons as bad weather, vacation, illness, or involvementin a labor dispute. In order to differentiate a person'snormal schedule from their activity during the referenceweek, persons are also classified according to their usualfull- or part-time status. In this context, full-time workersare those who usually worked 35 hours or more (at all jobscombined). This group will include some individuals whoworked less than 35 hours in the reference week for eithereconomic or noneconomic reasons and those who aretemporarily absent from work. Similarly, part-timeworkers are those who usually work less than 35 hours perweek (at all jobs), regardless of the number of hoursworked in the reference week. This may include someindividuals who actually worked more than 34 hours inthe reference week, as well as those who are temporarilyabsent from work. The full-time labor force includes allemployed persons who usually work full time andunemployed persons who are either looking for full-timework or are on layoff from full-time jobs. The part-timelabor force consists of employed persons who usually workpart time and unemployed persons who are seeking or areon layoff from part-time jobs. Unemployment rates forfull- and part-time workers are calculated using theconcepts of the full- and part-time labor force.
White, black, and other. These are terms used to describethe race of persons. Included in the "other" group areAmerican Indians, Alaskan Natives, and Asians andPacific Islanders. Because of the relatively small samplesize, data for "other" races are not published. In theenumeration process, race is determined by the householdrespondent.
Hispanic origin. This refers to persons who identifiedthemselves in the enumeration process as Mexican, PuertoRican, Cuban, Central or South American, or of otherHispanic origin or descent. Persons of Hispanic originmay be of any race; thus they are included in both thewhite and black population groups.
Vietnam-era veterans. These are persons who served in theArmed Forces of the United States between August 5,1964, and May 7, 1975. Published data are limited to menin the civilian noninstitutional population; i.e., veterans ininstitutions and women are excluded. Nonveterans arepersons who never served in the Armed Forces.
Usual weekly earnings. Data represent earnings beforetaxes and other deductions, and include any overtime pay,commissions, or tips usually received (at the main job inthe case of multiple jobholders.) Earnings reported on abasis other than weekly (e.g., annual, monthly, hourly) areconverted to weekly. The term "usual" is as perceived bythe respondent. If the respondent asks for a definition ofusual, interviewers are instructed to define the term asmore than half the weeks worked during the past 4 or 5months. Data refer to wage and salary workers (excludingself-employed persons who respond that their businesseswere incorporated) who usually work full time on theirsole or primary job.
Median earnings. These figures indicate the value whichdivides the earnings distribution into two equal parts, onepart having values above the median and the other havingvalues below the median. The medians as shown in thispublication are calculated by linear interpolation of the$50 centered interval within which each median falls. Dataexpressed in constant dollars are deflated by the Con-sumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers (CPI-U).
Single, never married; married, spouse present; and othermarital status. These are the terms used to define themarital status of individuals at the time of interview.Married, spouse present, applies to husband and wife ifboth were living in the same household, even though onemay be temporarily absent on business, vacation, on avisit, in a hospital, etc. Other marital status applies topersons who are married, spouse absent; widowed; ordivorced. Married, spouse absent relates to persons whoare separated due to marital problems, as well as husbandsand wives who are living apart because one or the other
160

was employed elsewhere, on duty with the Armed Forces,or any other reasons.
Household. A household consists of all persons — relatedfamily members and all unrelated persons — who occupy ahousing unit and have no other usual address. A house, anapartment, a group of rooms, or a single room is regardedas a housing unit when occupied or intended foroccupancy as separate living quarters. A householder is theperson (or one of the persons) in whose name the housingunit is owned or rented. The term is never applied to eitherhusbands or wives in married-couple families but relatesonly to persons in families maintained by either men orwomen without a spouse.
Family. A family is defined as a group of two or morepersons residing together who are related by birth,marriage, or adoption; all such persons are considered asmembers of one family. Families are classified either asmarried-couple families or as families maintained bywomen or men without spouses. A family maintained by awoman or a man is one in which the householder is eithersingle, widowed, divorced, or married, spouse absent.Data on the earnings of families exclude all those in whichthere is no wage or salary earner or in which the husband,wife, or other person maintaining the family is eitherself-employed or in the Armed Forces.
HISTORICAL COMPARABILITY
Changes in concepts and methodsWhile current survey concepts and methods are very
similar to those introduced at the inception of the survey in1940, a number of changes have been made over the yearsto improve the accuracy and usefulness of the data. Someof the most important changes include:
• In 1945, the questionnaire was radically changed withthe introduction of four basic employment questions.Prior to that time, the survey did not contain specificquestion wording, but rather relied on a complicatedscheme of activity prioritization.
• In 1953, the current 4-8-4 rotation system wasadopted, whereby households are interviewed for 4consecutive months, leave the sample for 8 months, andthen return to the sample for the same four months of thefollowing year. Before this system was introduced,households were interviewed for 6 consecutive monthsand then replaced. The new system provided someyear-to-year overlap in the sample, thereby improvingmeasurement over time.
• In 1955, the survey reference week was changed to thecalendar week including the 12th day of the month, forgreater consistency with the reference period used forother labor-related statistics. Previously, the calendarweek containing the 8th day of the month had been used asthe reference week.
• In 1957, the employment definition was modifiedslightly as a result of a comprehensive interagency reviewof labor force concepts and methods. Two relatively smallgroups of persons classified as employed, under "with a jobbut not at work," were assigned to different classifications.Persons on layoff with definite instructions to return towork within 30 days of the layoff date, and personsvolunteering that they were waiting to start a new wageand salary job within 30 days of interview, were, for themost part, reassigned to the unemployed classification.The only exception was the small subgroup in schoolduring the reference week but waiting to start new jobs,which was transferred to not in the labor force.
• In 1967, more substantive changes were made as aresult of the recommendations of the President's Commit-tee to Appraise Employment and Unemployment Statis-tics (the Gordon Committee). The principal improve-ments were as follows:
a) A 4-week job-search period and specific questions onjobseeking activity were introduced. Previously, thequestionnaire was ambiguous as to the time period forjobseeking and there were no specific questions concern-ing job-search methods.
b) An availability test was introduced whereby a personmust be currently available for work in order to beclassified as unemployed. Previously, there was no suchrequirement. This revision to the concept mainly affectedstudents, who, for example, may begin to look for summerjobs in the spring although they will not be available untilJune or July. Such persons, until 1967, had been classifiedas unemployed but since have been assigned to the "not inthe labor force" category.
c) Persons "with a job but not at work" because ofstrikes, bad weather, etc., who volunteered that they werelooking for work, were shifted from unemployed status toemployed.
d) The lower age limit for official statistics onemployment, unemployment, and other labor forceconcepts was raised from 14 to 16 years. Historical datafor most major series have been revised to provideconsistent information based on the new minimum agelimit.
e) New questions were added to obtain additional infor-mation on persons not in the labor force, including those
161
Digitized for FRASER http://fraser.stlouisfed.org/ Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis
referred to as "discouraged workers," defined as personswho indicate that they want a job but are not currentlylooking because they believe there are no jobs available ornone for which they would qualify.
f)) New "probing" questions were added to thequestionnaire in order to increase the reliability ofinformation on hours of work, duration of unemployment,and self-employment.
• In 1994, major changes to the Current PopulationSurvey (CPS) were introduced, which included a completeredesign of the questionnaire and the use of computer-assisted interviewing for the entire survey. In addition,there were revisions to some of the labor force conceptsand definitions, including the implementation of somechanges recommended in 1979 by the National Commis-sion on Employment and Unemployment Statistics(NCEUS, also known as the Levitan Commission.) Someof the major changes to the survey were:
a) The introduction of a redesigned and automatedquestionnaire. The CPS questionnaire was totally rede-signed in order to obtain more accurate, comprehensive,and relevant information, and to take advantage ofstate-of-the-art computer interviewing techniques.
b) The addition of two, more objective, criteria to thedefinition of discouraged workers. Prior to 1994, to beclassified as a discouraged worker, a person must havewanted a job and be reported as not currently lookingbecause of a belief that no jobs were available or that therewere none for which he or she would qualify. Beginning in1994, persons classified as discouraged must also havelooked for a job within the past year (or since their last job,if they worked during the year), and must have beenavailable for work during the reference week (a directquestion on availability was added in 1994; prior to 1994,availability had been inferred from responses to otherquestions.) These changes were made because the NCEUSand others felt that the previous definition of discouragedworkers was too subjective, relying mainly on anindividual's stated desire for a job and not on prior testingof the labor market.
c) Similarly, the identification of persons employedpart time for economic reasons (working less than 35hours in the reference week because of poor businessconditions or because of an inability to find full-time work)was tightened by adding two new criteria for persons whousually work part time: They must want and be availablefor full-time work. Previously, such information wasinferred. (Persons who usually work full time but workedpart time for an economic reason during the referenceweek are assumed to meet these criteria.)
d) Specific questions were added about the expectationof recall for persons who indicate that they are on layoff.To be classified as "on temporary layoff," persons mustexpect to be recalled to their jobs. Previously, thequestionnaire did not include explicit questions about theexpectation of recall.
e) Persons volunteering that they were waiting to start anew job within 30 days must have looked for work in the 4weeks prior to the survey in order to be classified asunemployed. Previously, such persons did not have tomeet the job-search requirement in order to be includedamong the unemployed.

Noncomparability of labor force levelsIn addition to the refinements in concepts, definitions,
and methods made over the years, other changes have alsoaffected the comparability of the labor force data.
• Beginning in 1953, as a result of introducing datafrom the 1950 census into the estimating procedures,population levels were raised by about 600,000; laborforce, total employment, and agricultural employmentwere increased by about 350,000, primarily affecting thefigures for totals and men; other categories were relativelyunaffected.
• Beginning in 1960, the inclusion of Alaska andHawaii resulted in an increase of about 500,000 in thepopulation and about 300,000 in the labor force.Four-fifths of this increase was in nonagriculturalemployment; other labor force categories were notappreciably affected.
• Beginning in 1962, the introduction of data from the1960 census reduced the population by about 50,000 andlabor force and employment by about 200,000; unemploy-ment totals were virtually unchanged.
• Beginning in 1972, information from the 1970 censuswas introduced into the estimation procedures, increasingthe population by about 800,000; labor force and
162
Digitized for FRASER http://fraser.stlouisfed.org/ Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis
employment totals were raised by a little more than300,000; unemployment levels and rates were essentiallyunchanged.
• In March 1973, a subsequent population adjustmentbased on the 1970 census was introduced. This ad-justment, which affected the white and black-and-othergroups but had little effect on totals, resulted in thereduction of nearly 300,000 in the white population and anincrease of the same magnitude in the black-and-otherpopulation. Civilian labor force and total employmentfigures were affected to a lesser degree; the white laborforce was reduced by 150,000, and the black-and-otherlabor force rose by about 210,000. Unemployment levelsand rates were not significantly affected.
• Beginning in January 1974, the method used toprepare independent estimates of the civilian noninstitu-tional population was modified to an "inflation-deflation"approach. This change in the derivation of the estimateshad its greatest impact on estimates of 20- to 24-year oldmen — particularly those of the black-and-other popula-tion—but had little effect on estimates of the totalpopulation 16 years and over. Additional information onthe adjustment procedure appears in "CPS PopulationControls Derived from Inflation-Deflation Method ofEstimation," in the February 1974 issue of this publica-tion.
• Effective in July 1975, as a result of the large inflow ofVietnamese refugees into the United States, the total andblack-and-other independent population controls forpersons 16 years and over were adjusted upward by76,000 - (30,000 men and 46,000 women.) The addition ofthe refugees increased the black-and-other population byless than 1 percent in any age-sex group, with all of thechanges being confined to the "other" component of thepopulation.
interviewer as before. The purpose of this change was toprovide more accurate estimates of characteristics by race.Thus, in October 1978, one-eighth of the samplehouseholds had race determined by the householdrespondent and seven-eighths of the sample householdshad race determined by interviewer observation. It was notuntil January 1980 that the entire sample had racedetermined by the household respondent. The newprocedure had no significant effect on the estimates.
• Beginning in January 1979, the first-stage ratioadjustment method was changed in the CPS estimationprocedure. Differences between the old and new proce-dures existed only for metropolitan and non-metropolitanarea estimates, not for the total United States. Thereasoning behind the change and an indication of thedifferences appear in "Revisions in the Current Popula-tion Survey in January 1979" in the February 1979 issue ofthis publication.
• Beginning in January 1982, the second-stage ratioadjustment method was changed. The purpose of thechange and an indication of its effect on national estimatesof labor force characteristics appear in "Revisions in theCurrent Population Survey Beginning in January 1982" inthe February 1982 issue of this publication. In addition,current population estimates used in the second-stageestimation procedure were derived from informationobtained from the 1980 census, rather than the 1970census. This change caused substantial increases in thetotal population and in the estimates of persons in all laborforce categories. Rates for labor force characteristics,however, remained virtually unchanged. Some 30,000labor force series were adjusted back to 1970 to avoidmajor breaks in series. The adjustment procedure used isalso described in the February 1982 article cited above.The revisions did not, however, smooth out the breaks inseries occurring between 1972 and 1979 (described above),and data users should consider them when comparingestimates from different periods.
• Beginning in January 1978, the introduction of anexpansion in the sample and revisions in the estimationprocedures resulted in an increase of about 250,000 in thecivilian labor force and employment totals; unemploy-ment levels and rates were essentially unchanged. Anexplanation of the procedural changes and an indication ofthe differences appear in "Revisions in the CurrentPopulation Survey in January 1978" in the February 1978issue of this publication.
• Beginning in October 1978, the race of the individualwas determined by the household respondent for theincoming rotation group households, rather than by the
• Beginning in January 1983, the first-stage ratioadjustment method was updated to incorporate data fromthe 1980 census. The purpose of the change and anindication of its effect on national estimates of labor forcecharacteristics appear in "Revisions in the CurrentPopulation Survey Beginning in January 1983" in theFebruary 1983 issue of this publication. There were onlyslight differences between the old and new procedures inestimates of levels for the various labor force characteris-tics and virtually no differences in estimates of participa-tion rates.
• Beginning in January 1985, most of the steps of theCPS estimation procedure — the noninterview adjustment,
163
Digitized for FRASER http://fraser.stlouisfed.org/ Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis
the first and second-stage ratio adjustments, and thecomposite estimator— were revised. These procedures aredescribed in the Estimating Methods section. A descrip-tion of the changes and an indication of their effect onnational estimates of labor force characteristics appear in"Changes in the Estimation Procedure in the CurrentPopulation Survey Beginning in January 1985" in theFebruary 1985 issue of this publication. Overall, therevisions had only a slight effect on most estimates. Thegreatest impact was on estimates of persons of Hispanicorigin. Major estimates were revised back to January 1980.
• Beginning in January 1986, the population controlsused in the second-stage ratio adjustment method wererevised to reflect an explicit estimate of the number ofundocumented immigrants (largely Hispanic) since 1980and an improved estimate of the number of emigrantsamong legal foreign-born residents for the same timeperiod. As a result, the total civilian population and laborforce estimates were raised by nearly 400,000; civilianemployment was increased by about 350,000. TheHispanic-origin population and labor force estimates wereraised by about 425,000 and 305,000, respectively, andHispanic employment by 270,000. Overall and subgroupunemployment levels and rates were not significantlyaffected. Because of the magnitude of the adjustments forHispanics, data were revised back to January 1980 to theextent possible. An explanation of the changes and theireffect on estimates of labor force characteristics appear in"Changes in the Estimation Procedure in the CurrentPopulation Survey Beginning in January 1986" in theFebruary 1986 issue of this publication.
• Beginning in August 1989, the second-stage ratioestimate cells were changed slightly to decrease the chanceof very small cells occurring and to be more consistentwith published age, sex, race cells. This change hadvirtually no effect on national estimates.
• Beginning in January 1994, population estimatesused in the second-stage estimation procedure were basedon information obtained from the 1990 census (adjustedfor the undercount as measured by the Census Bureau'sPost Enumeration Survey). This change resulted insubstantial increases in total population and in all majorlabor force categories. Under the new population controls,the civilian noninstitutional population increased by about1.3 million, with much of the increase occurring amongHispanics. Estimates of employment were raised by about950,000, and unemployment by approximately 200,000.In addition, the overall unemployment rate rose by about0.1 percentage point, largely reflecting the increase in theHispanic share of the population, which has a higher-than-
average incidence of unemployment. For further informa-tion, see "Revisions in the Current Population SurveyEffective January 1994," in the February 1994 issue of thispublication.
Changes in the occupational and industrialclassification systems
Beginning in 1971, the comparability of occupationalemployment data was affected as a result of changes in theoccupational classification system for the 1970 census thatwere introduced into the CPS. Comparability was furtheraffected in December 1971, when a question relating tomajor activity or duties was added to the monthly CPSquestionnaire in order to determine more precisely theoccupational classification of individuals. As a result ofthese changes, meaningful comparisons of occupationalemployment levels could not be made between 1971-72and prior years nor between those 2 years. Unemploymentrates were not significantly affected. For a furtherexplanation of the changes in the occupational classifica-tion system, see "Revisions in Occupational Classifica-tions for 1971" and "Revisions in the Current PopulationSurvey" in the February 1971 and February 1972 issues,respectively, of this publication.
Beginning in January 1983, the occupational and indus-trial classification systems used in the 1980 census were in-troduced into the CPS. The 1980 census occupational clas-sification system evolved from the Standard OccupationalClassification (SOC) and was so radically different in con-cepts and nomenclature from the 1970 system that com-parisons of historical data are not possible without majoradjustments. For example, the 1980 major group "sales oc-cupations" is substantially larger than the 1970 category"sales workers." Major additions include "cashiers" from"clerical workers" and some self-employed proprietors inretail trade establishments from "managers and adminis-trators, except farm."
The industrial classification system used in the 1980census was based on the 1972 Standard IndustrialClassification (SIC) system, as modified in 1977. Theadoption of the new system had much less of an adverseeffect on historical comparability than did the newoccupational system. The most notable changes from the1970 system were the transfer of farm equipment storesfrom "retail" to "wholesale" trade, postal service from"public administration" to "transportation," and someinterchange between "professional and related services"and "public administration." Additional information onthe 1980 census occupational and industrial classificationsystems appear in "Revisions in the Current PopulationSurvey Beginning in January 1983" in the February 1983issue of this publication.
Beginning in January 1992, the occupational andindustrial classification systems used in the 1990 census
164
Digitized for FRASER http://fraser.stlouisfed.org/ Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis
were introduced into the C?S. (These systems were largelybased on the 1980 Standard Occupational Classification(SOC) and 1987 Standard Industrial Classification (SIC)systems, respectively.) There were a few breaks incomparability between the 1980 and 1990 census-basedsystems, particularly within the "technical, sales, andadministrative support" categories. The most notablechanges in industry classification were the shift of severalindustries from "business services" to "professionalservices" and the splitting of some industries into smaller,more detailed categories, A number of industry titles werechanged as well, with no change in content.
SamplingSince the inception of the survey, there have been
various changes in the design of the CPS sample. Thesample is traditionally redesigned and a new sampleselected after each decennial census. Also, the number ofsample areas and the number of sample persons arechanged occasionally. Most of these changes are made inorder to improve the efficiency of the sample designand/or to increase the reliability of the sample estimates.When Alaska and Hawaii received statehood, threesample areas were added to the existing sample to accountfor the population of these States. In January 1978, asupplemental sample of 9,000 housing units, selected in 24States and the District of Columbia, was designed toprovide more reliable annual average estimates for States.In October 1978, a coverage improvement sample ofapproximately 450 sample household units representing237,000 occupied mobile homes and 600,000 newconstruction housing units was added. In January 1980,another supplemental sample of 9,000 households selectedin 32 States and the District of Columbia was added. Asample reduction of about 6,000 units was implemented inMay 1981. In January 1982, the sample was expanded by100 households to provide additional coverage in countiesadded to Standard Metropolitan Statistical Areas(SMSA's), which were redefined in 1973. In January 1985,a new State-based CPS sample was selected based on 1980census information. A sample reduction of about 4,000households was implemented in April 1988; they werereinstated during the 8-month period, April-November1989. A redesigned CPS sample based on the 1990decennial census has been selected for use during the1990's. Households from this new sample will be phased induring the April 1994 through July 1995 period.
The current 1980 census-based sample design includesabout 72,000 housing units per month located in 729selected geographic areas called primary sampling units(PSU's). The sample was initially selected so that specificreliability criteria were met nationally, for each of the 50States, for the District of Columbia, and for the sub-Stateareas of New York City and the Los Angeles-Long Beachmetropolitan area. Since 1985, these reliability criteriahave been maintained through periodic additions and
deletions in the State samples. The criteria, given below,are based on the coefficient of variation (CV) of theunemployment rate, where the CV is defined as thestandard error of the estimate divided by the estimate,expressed as a percentage. These CV controls assume a6-percent unemployment rate to establish a consistentspecification of sampling error.
Nationally, a 1.8-percent CV is maintained on themonthly unemployment rate estimate. This means that achange of 0.2 percentage point in the unemployment rateis significant at a 90-percent confidence level.
In 11 States — California, Florida, Illinois, Massachu-setts, Michigan, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina,Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Texas —the most populous Statesat the time of the 1980 decennial census, an 8-percent CVis maintained on the monthly unemployment rateestimates. In the other 39 States and the District ofColumbia, an 8-percent CV is maintained on the annualunemployment rate estimate. In New York City and theLos Angeles-Long Beach metropolitan area, a 9-percentCV is maintained on the monthly unemployment rateestimates.
In the first stage of sampling, the 729 sample areas arechosen. In the second stage, ultimate sampling unitclusters composed of about four housing units each areselected. Each month, about 72,000 housing units areassigned for data collection, of which about 60,000 areoccupied and thus eligible for interview. The remainderare units found to be destroyed, vacant, converted tononresidential use, containing persons whose usual placeof residence is elsewhere, or ineligible for other reasons. Ofthe 60,000 housing units, 4 to 5 percent are not interviewedin a given month due to temporary absence (vacation,etc.), other failures to make contact after repeatedattempts, inability of persons contacted to respond,unavailability for other reasons, and refusals to cooperate(about half of the noninterviews). Information is obtainedeach month for about 113,000 persons 16 years of age andolder.
Selection of sample areas. The entire area of the UnitedStates, consisting of 3,137 counties and independent cities,is divided into 1,973 sample units (PSU's). In most States,a PSU consists of a county or a number of contiguouscounties. In New England and Hawaii, minor civildivisions are used instead of counties.
Metropolitan areas within a State are used as a basis forforming PSU's. Outside of metropolitan areas, countiesnormally are combined, except where the geographic areaof the sample county is very large. Combining counties toform PSU's provides greater heterogeneity; a typical PSUincludes urban and rural residents of both high and loweconomic levels and encompasses, to the extent feasible,diverse occupations and industries. Another importantconsideration is to have the PSU sufficiently compact so
165

that, with a small sample spread throughout, it can beefficiently canvassed without undue travel cost.
The 1,973 PSU's are grouped into strata within eachState. Then one PSU is selected from each stratum withthe probability of selection proportional to the populationof the PSU. There are 314 PSU's in strata by themselvesthat are self-representing, and generally these are the mostpopulated PSU's in each State. The remaining strata areformed by combining PSU's that are similar in suchcharacteristics as population growth; proportions ofblacks and of Hispanics (in certain States); and populationdistribution by occupation, industry, age, and sex. ThePSU's, randomly selected from these strata, are non-self -representing, because each one chosen represents theentire stratum. The probability of selecting a particularPSU in a non-self-representing stratum is proportional toits 1980 population. For example, within a stratum, thechance that a PSU with a population of 50,000 would beselected for the sample is twice that for a PSU having apopulation of 25,000.
Selection of sample households. Because the sample designis State based, the sampling ratio differs by State anddepends on the reliability requirements for estimates foreach State. The State sampling ratios range roughly from 1in every 200 households to 1 in every 2,500 households ineach stratum of the State. The sampling ratio occasionallyis modified slightly to hold the size of the sample relativelyconstant given the overall growth of the population. Thesampling ratio used within a sample PSU depends on theprobability of selection of the PSU and the sampling ratiofor the State. In a sample PSU with a probability ofselection of 1 in 10 with a State sampling ratio of 1 in 2,500,the within-PSU sampling ratio that results is 1 in 250,thereby achieving the desired ratio of 1 in 2,500 for thestratum.
Within each designated PSU, several steps are involvedin selecting the housing units to be enumerated. First, the1980 census enumeration districts (ED's), which areadministrative units and contain on the average about 300housing units, are ordered so that the sample would reflectthe demographic and residential characteristics of thePSU. Within each ED, the housing units are sortedgeographically and are grouped into clusters of approxi-mately four housing units. Next, a systematic sample ofthese clusters of housing units is selected.
The identification of the sample housing units within anED is made wherever possible from the list of EDaddresses compiled during the 1980 census. The addresslists are used in about three-fourths of the ED's, primarilyin urban areas. Area sampling is applied in the remainingED's, mostly in rural areas. In ED's where address lists areused, automated methods are used to form clusters ofgeographically contiguous housing units. An effort is
made to have all small, multi-unit addresses (two to fourhousing units) included in the same cluster. The methodsuse the within-PSU sampling ratio to identify appropriateclusters for the sample. Supplemental samples are alsoprepared to account for addresses in isolated geographicareas and to account for housing units not found on theaddress lists, including housing units newly constructed inthe PSU since the census date. The addresses of these unitsare obtained mainly from records of building permits.
In those ED's where area sampling methods are used,mainly rural areas, the ED's are subdivided into small land"chunks" with well-defined boundaries and having, ingeneral, an expected "size" of about 8 to 12 housing unitsor other living quarters. For each subdivided ED, onechunk (or more) is designated for the sample. When aselected chunk contains about four households, forexample, all units are included in the sample. When thesize of the chunk is several times four units, an interviewerdoes not conduct interviews at all housing units in thechunk but uses a systematic sampling pattern to obtainapproximately four households. The remaining housingunits in the chunk are then available for further samples.Area ED's also make use of building permit lists to identifynewly constructed housing units.
Rotation of sample. Part of the sample is changed eachmonth. For each sample, eight representative subsamplesor rotation groups are identified. A given rotation group isinterviewed for a total of 8 months, divided into two equalperiods. It is in the sample for 4 consecutive months, leavesthe sample during the following 8 months, and thenreturns for another 4 consecutive months. In any 1 month,one-eighth of the rotation groups are in their first month ofenumeration, another eighth is in their second month, andso on. Under this system, 75 percent of the samplesegments are common from month to month and 50percent from year to year for the same month. Thisprocedure provides a substantial amount of month-to-month and year-to-year overlap in the sample, thusproviding better estimates of change and reducingdiscontinuities in the series of data without burdening anyspecific group of households with an unduly long period ofinquiry.

1 Beginning in May 1956, these areas were chosen to provide coveragein each State and the District of Columbia.

3 The sample was increased incrementally during the 8-monthperiod, April-November 1989.
ESTIMATING METHODS
Under the estimating methods used in the CPS, all of theresults for a given month become available simultaneouslyand are based on returns from the entire panel of respon-dents. The estimation procedure involves weighting thedata from each sample person by the inverse of the proba-bility of the person being in the sample. This gives a roughmeasure of the number of actual persons that the sampleperson represents. Since 1985, almost all sample personswithin the same State have the same probability of selec-tion. Exceptions include sample persons in New York andCalifornia, where households in New York City and LosAngeles are selected with higher probability. Selectionprobabilities may also differ for some sample areas due tofield subsampling, which is carried out when areas selectedfor the sample are found to contain many more householdsthan expected. Though a series of estimation steps (out-lined below), the selection probabilities are adjusted fornoninterviews and survey undercoverage; data from pre-vious months are incorporated into the estimates throughthe composite estimation procedure.
1. Noninterview adjustment. The weights for all inter-viewed households are adjusted to the extent needed toaccount for occupied sample households for which noinformation was obtained because of absence, impassableroads, refusals, or unavailability of the respondents forother reasons. This noninterview adjustment is madeseparately for clusters of similar sample areas that areusually, but not necessarily, contained within a State.Similarity of sample areas is based on MetropolitanStatistical Area (MSA) status and size. Within eachcluster, there is a further breakdown by residence. EachMSA cluster is split by "central city" and "balance of the
MSA." Each non-MSA cluster is split by "urban* and"rural" residence categories. The proportion of samplehouseholds not interviewed varies from 4 to 5 percent,depending on weather, vacation, etc.
2. Ratio estimates. The distribution of the populationselected for the sample may differ somewhat, by chance,from that of the population as a whole in suchcharacteristics as age, race, sex, and State of residence.Because these characteristics are closely correlated withlabor force participation and other principal measure-ments made from the sample, the survey estimates can besubstantially improved when weighted appropriately bythe known distribution of these population characteristics.This is accomplished through two stages of ratioadjustment, as follows:
a. First-stage ratio estimation. The purpose of thefirst-stage ratio adjustment is to reduce the contribution tovariance that results from selecting a sample of PSUsrather than drawing sample households from every PSU inthe Nation. This adjustment is made to the CPS weights intwo race cells: Black and nonblack; it is applied only toPSlTs that are not self-representing and for those Statesthat have a substantial number of black households. Theprocedure corrects for differences that existed in eachState cell at the time of the 1980 census between 1) the racedistribution of the population in sample PSlTs and 2) therace distribution of all PSU's (both 1 and 2 excludeself-representing PSU's.)
b. Second-stage ratio estimation. This procedure sub-stantially reduces the variability of estimates and corrects,to some extent, for CPS undercoverage. The CPS sampleweights are adjusted to ensure that sample-based estimates
167
Digitized for FRASER http://fraser.stlouisfed.org/ Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis
of population match independent population controls.Three sets of controls are used:
1) 51 State controls of the civilian noninstitutionalpopulation 16 years of age and older
2) National civilian noninstitutional populationcontrols for 14 Hispanic and 5 non-Hispanic age-sexcategories
3) National civilian noninstitutional populationcontrols for 66 white, 42 Black, and 10 "other"age-sex categories
The independent population controls are prepared byprojecting forward the resident population as enumeratedon April 1, 1990. The projections are derived by updatingdemographic census data with information from a varietyof other data sources that account for births, deaths, andnet migration. Estimated numbers of resident ArmedForces personnel and institutionalized persons reduce theresident population to the civilian noninstitutional popu-lation. Estimates of net census undercount, determinedfrom the Post Enumeration Survey, are added to thepopulation projections. Prior to January 1994, theprojections were based on earlier censuses, and there wasno correction for census undercount. A summary of thecurrent procedures used to make population projections isgiven in "Revisions in the Current Population SurveyEffective January 1994," appearing in the February 1994issue of this publication.
3. Composite estimation procedure. The last step in thepreparation of most CPS estimates makes use of a com-posite estimation procedure. The composite estimate con-sists of a weighted average of two factors: The two-stageratio estimate based on the entire sample from the currentmonth and the composite estimate for the previous month,plus an estimate of the month-to-month change based onthe six rotation groups common to both months. In addi-tion, a bias adjustment term is added to the weighted aver-age to account for relative bias associated with month-in-sample estimates. This month-in-sample bias is exhibitedby unemployment estimates for persons in their first andfifth months in the CPS being generally higher than esti-mates obtained for the other months.
The composite estimate results in a reduction in thesampling error beyond that which is achieved after the twostages of ratio adjustment. For some items, the reduction issubstantial. The resultant gains in reliability are greatest inestimates of month-to-month change, although gains arealso usually obtained for estimates of level in a givenmonth, change from year to year, and change over otherintervals of time.
Rounding of estimatesThe sums of individual items may not always equal the
totals shown in the same tables because of independent
rounding of totals and components to the nearestthousand. Similarly, sums of percent distributions maynot always equal 100 percent because of rounding.Differences, however, are insignificant.
Reliability of the estimatesThere are two types of errors possible in an estimate
based on a sample survey —sampling and nonsampling.The standard errors provided indicate primarily themagnitude of the sampling error. They also incorporatethe effect of some nonsampling errors in response andenumeration but do not account for any systematicbiases in the data.
Nonsampling error. The full extent of nonsampling error isunknown, but special studies have been conducted toquantify some sources of nonsampling error in the CPS, asdiscussed below. The effect of nonsampling error shouldbe small on estimates of relative change, such asmonth-to-month change. Estimates of monthly levelswould be more severely affected by the nonsampling error.
Nonsampling errors in surveys can be attributed tomany sources, e.g., the inability to obtain informationabout all persons in the sample; differences in theinterpretation of questions; inability or unwillingness ofrespondents to provide correct information; inability torecall information; errors made in collecting and process-ing the data, errors made in estimating values for miss-ing data; and failure to represent all sample householdsand all persons within sample households (undercover-age).
Nonsampling errors occurring in the interview phase ofthe survey are studied by means of a reinterview program.This program is used to estimate various sources of erroras well as to evaluate and control the work of theinterviewers. A random sample of each interviewer's workis inspected through reinterview at regular intervals. Theresults indicate, among other things, that the datapublished from the CPS are subject to moderate systema-tic biases. A description of the CPS reinterview programand some of the other results may be found in the CurrentPopulation Survey Reinterview Program, January 1961through December 1966, Technical Paper No. 19, Bureauof the Census, U.S. Department of Commerce.
The effects of some components of nonsampling error inthe CPS data can be examined as a result of the rotationplan used for the sample, since the level of the estimatesvaries by rotation group. A description of these effectsappears in "The Effects of Rotation Group Bias onEstimates From Panel Surveys," by Barbara A. Bailar,Journal of the American Statistical Association, Volume70, No. 349, March 1975.
Undercoverage in the CPS results from missed housingunits and missed persons within sample households. TheCPS covers about 94 percent of the decennial censuspopulation. It is known that the CPS undercoverage varieswith age, sex, race, and Hispanic origin. Generally,
168
Digitized for FRASER http://fraser.stlouisfed.org/ Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis
undercoverage is larger for men than for women andlarger for blacks, Hispanics, and other races than forwhites. Ratio adjustment to independent age-sex-race-origin population controls, as described previously,partially corrects for the biases due to survey undercover-age. However, biases exist in the estimates to the extentthat missed persons in missed households or missedpersons in interviewed households have different charac-teristics than interviewed persons in the same age-sex-race-origin group.
Additional information on nonsampling error in theCPS appears in "An Error Profile: Employment asMeasured by the Current Population Survey," by CamillaBrooks and Barbara Bailar, Statistical Policy WorkingPaper 3, U.S. Department of Commerce, Office of FederalStatistical Policy and Standards; in "The Current Popula-tion Survey: An Overview," by Marvin Thompson andGary Shapiro, Annals of Economic and Social Measure-ment, Vol. 2, April 1973; and in The Current PopulationSurvey, Design and Methodology, Technical Paper No. 40,Bureau of the Census, U.S. Department of Commerce.This last document includes a comprehensive discussionof various sources of errors and describes attempts tomeasure them in the CPS.
Sampling error. When a sample rather than the entirepopulation is surveyed, estimates differ from the truepopulation values that they represent. This difference, orsampling error, occurs by chance, and its variability ismeasured by the standard error of the estimate. Sampleestimates from a given survey design are unbiased when anaverage of the estimates from all possible samples wouldyield, hypothetically, the true population value. In thiscase, the sample estimate and its standard error can beused to construct approximate confidence intervals, orranges of values, that include the true population valuewith known probabilities. If the process of selecting asample from the population were repeated many times andan estimate and its standard error calculated for eachsample, then:
1. Approximately 68 percent of the intervals from onestandard error below the estimate to one standard errorabove the estimate would include the true populationvalue.
2. Approximately 90 percent of the intervals from 1.6standard errors below the estimate to 1.6 standard errorsabove the estimate would include the true populationvalue.
3. Approximately 95 percent of the intervals from twostandard errors below the estimate to 2 standard errorsabove the estimate would include the true populationvalue.
Although the estimating methods used in the CPS donot produce unbiased estimates, biases for most estimatesare believed to be small enough so that these confidenceinterval statements are approximately true.
Since it would be too costly to develop standard errorsfor all CPS estimates, generalized variance functiontechniques are used to calculate sets of standard errors forvarious types of labor force characteristics. It is importantto keep in mind that standard errors computed from thesemethods reflect contributions from sampling errors andsome kinds of nonsampling errors and indicate the generalmagnitude of an estimate's standard error rather than itsprecise value.
The generalized variance functions and standard errorsprovided here are based on the sample design andestimation procedures as of 1987 and have been adjustedto reflect the population levels and sample size as of 1991.The figures have not been adjusted to account for the use ofnew population controls based on the 1990 census. Foryears prior to 1967, the standard errors obtained must befurther adjusted to reflect the CPS sample size in effect atthat time. For years prior to 1956, standard errors shouldbe multiplied by 1.5; for the years 1956 through 1966,standard errors should be multiplied by 1.22.
Tables 1-B through 1-H are provided so that approxi-mate standard errors of estimates can be easily obtained.These tables are briefly summarized here; details illustrat-ing the proper use of each table follow.
Tables 1-B and 1-C show standard errors for estimatedmonthly levels and rates for selected employment statuscharacteristics; these tables also provide standard errorsfor consecutive month-to-month changes in the estimates.These standard errors are based on levels of recentestimates and can be determined directly by finding thecharacteristic of interest.
Tables 1-D and 1-E show standard errors for monthlylevels and consecutive monthly changes in levels forgeneral employment status characteristics. The standarderrors are calculated using linear interpolation based onthe size of the monthly estimates.
Tables 1-F and 1-G give parameters that can be usedwith formulas to calculate a standard error on nearly anyspecified level, unemployment rate, percentage, or con-secutive month-to-month change. For monthly levels andconsecutive month-to-month changes in levels, tables 1-Fand 1-G are preferred to tables 1-D and 1-E, since theformulas provide more accurate results than linearinterpolation.
Table 1-H presents factors used to convert standarderrors of monthly levels and rates determined from tables1-B, 1-C, 1-D, and 1-F to standard errors pertainingto quarterly and yearly averages, consecutive year-to-yearchanges of monthly estimates, and changes in quarterlyand yearly averages.

The standard errors for estimated changes from 1month to the next, 1 year to the next, etc., depend more onthe monthly levels for characteristics than on the size ofthe changes. Accordingly, tables 1-E, 1-G, and 1-H usemonthly levels (not the magnitude of the changes) forapproximating standard errors of change. Standard errorsfor estimated change between nonconsecutive months arenot provided (except for year-to-year change); however,these may be assumed to be higher than the standarderrors for consecutive monthly change.
Use of tables 1-B and 1-C. These tables provide a quickreference for standard errors of major characteristics.Table 1-B gives approximate standard errors for estimatesof monthly levels and consecutive month-to-monthchanges in levels for major employment status categories.Table 1-C gives approximate standard errors for estimates
of monthly unemployment rates and consecutive month-to-month changes in unemployment rates for some demo-graphic, industrial, and occupational categories. For char-acteristics not given in tables 1-B and 1-C, refer to eithertables 1-D and 1-E or tables 1-F and 1-G.
Illustration. Suppose that for a given month the number ofwomen 20 years and over in the civilian labor force is esti-mated to be 54,000,000. For this characteristic, the ap-proximate standard error of 196,000 is given in table 1-B inthe row, "total, women 20 years and over: Civilian laborforce." A 90-percent confidence interval as shown by thesedata, would then be the interval from 53,686,000 to54,314,000. Concluding that the true labor force level lieswithin this interval would be correct for roughly 90 per-cent of all possible samples.
Use of tables 1-D and 1-E. From these tables, approximatestandard errors can be calculated for estimates of monthlylevels and month-to-month changes in levels for majorlabor force characteristics by race and Hispanic origin.For major categories not shown, such as male or female,tables 1-F and 1-G can be used. Standard errors for inter-mediate values not shown in the tables may beapproximated by linear interpolation. For table 1-E,which applies to estimates of consecutive month-to-monthchange, the average of the two monthly levels (not thechange) is used to select the appropriate row in the table.
Illustration. Assume that between 2 consecutive monthsthe estimated number of employed persons changed from115,600,000 to 116,700,000, an apparent increase of1,100,000. The approximate standard error on this month-to-month change estimate is based on the average level ofthe estimate for the 2 months, 116,150,000. Using the table1-E column titled "labor force data other than unemploy-ment and agricultural employment, total," it is necessaryto find the standard errors corresponding to the twomonthly level entries between which the value 116,150,000lies. The standard error corresponding to 100,000,000 isgiven as 240,000, and the standard error corresponding to120,000,000 is given as 206,000. Use linear interpolation tofind the approximate standard error on month-to-monthchange corresponding to the level 116,150,000; onemethod of calculation is given below.
/ 120,000,000-116,150,000^206,000 +
120,000,000-100,000,000>1(240,000-206,000) = 213,000
Thus, a 90-percent confidence interval for the true month-to-month change would be approximately the intervalfrom 759,000 to 1,441,000.
Use of tables 1-F and 1-G. These tables can be used to findapproximate standard errors for a wide range of estimatedmonthly levels, proportions, rates, and estimates of con-secutive monthly change. Instead of displaying standard

errors, these tables provide parameters to be used with theformulas given below that allow the user to calculate stan-dard errors.
Table 1-G, which applies to estimates of consecutivemonthly change, lists parameters for some characteristicsclassified by a measure of correlation between monthly es-timates. Estimates of the number of persons employed full
time, for example, change relatively little from 1 month tothe next, and the two monthly estimates are said to behighly correlated. Consecutive monthly estimates of part-time employment, by contrast, have low correlation, be-cause these estimates are relatively volatile.
Major characteristics for which consecutive monthlyestimates are known to have high or low correlation areindicated in table 1-G. Not all categories in table 1-G,however, are broken down into low or high correlationcharacteristics. When high or low correlation is not speci-fied in table 1-G, the parameters in this table should be se-lected from the rows labeled "most characteristics" orfrom rows not specifying correlation.
Standard errors of estimated levels. The approximatestandard error, sx, of an estimated monthly level, x, canbe obtained using the formula below, where a and b are theparameters from table 1-F associated with the particularcharacteristic. The same formula can be used to approxi-mate the standard error of an estimated month-to-monthchange in level; simply average the levels for the 2 consecu-tive months and use the parameters from table 1-G.

Illustration. Assume that in a given month there are anestimated 6 million unemployed men in the civilian laborforce (x = 6,000,000). Obtain the appropriate a and bparameters from table 1-F ("unemployment, total orwhite"). Use the formula to compute an approximatestandard error on the estimate of 6,000,000.
a = -0.000015749 b = 2464.91
sx = V(-0.000015749) (6,000,000) 2+ (2464.91)(6,000,000) =119,000
Suppose that in the next month the estimated number ofunemployed men increases by 200,000 to 6,200,000. Theaverage of the monthly levels is x = 6,100,000. Obtain theappropriate a and b parameters from table 1-G ("unem-ployment, total or white, total, men, women"). Use the for-mula to compute an approximate standard error on the es-timated change of 200,000.
s x = V(-0.000082123) (6,100,000) 2 + (3494.11) (6,100,000) = 135,000
An approximate 90-percent confidence interval for thetrue month-to-month change would be the interval from-16,000 to 416,000. Because this interval covers zero, onecannot assert at this level of confidence that any realchange has occurred in the unemployment level. This re-sult can also be expressed by saying that the apparent

categories, use the parameters from table 1-F or 1-Grelevant to the numerator. The approximate standarderror, SyjP> of an estimated percentage or rate, p, can be ob-tained using the following formula, where y is theestimated number of persons in the base.
P(IOO-P)
Illustration. For a given month, suppose that 5,600,000women, 20 to 24 years of age, are estimated to beemployed. Of this total, 1,800,000 or 32 percent are classi-fied as part-time workers. To estimate the standard erroron this percentage, proceed as follows. Obtain theparameter b = 2111.70 from table 1-F ("labor force andnot-in-labor-force data other than agricultural employ-ment and unemployment, total women"). Apply the for-mula to obtain:
.= A//2111.705,600,000
(32) (100 - 32) = 0.9 percent
Suppose that in the next month 5,700,000 women in thissame age group are reported employed and that 1,950,000or 34 percent are part-time workers. To estimate the stan-dard error on the observed month-to-month change of 2percentage points, first average the values for p and y overthe 2 months to get p = 33 percent and y = 5,650,000.Next, obtain the parameter b = 2245.76 from table 1-G("labor force and not-in-labor-force data other than agri-cultural employment and unemployment, total or white,women, low correlation characteristics") and apply theformula as follows.
2245.76
5,650,000(33) (100 - 33) = 0.9 percent
1 Excludes not-in-labor-force data.
It should be noted that the numerator of the percentage(part-time employed) determined the choice of correla-tion. If the example had illustrated percentages of womenemployed full time, the numerator would have been a highcorrelation characteristic. Table 1-G, however, does notexplicitly list high correlation parameters for employedwomen; thus, the row labeled "women, most characteris-tics" would have been used.
Had the example dealt with teenage women employedpart time, either of two rows in table 1-G could have beenapplied ("women, low correlation" or "both sexes, 16 to 19years"). In situations like this, where it is not clear whichrow applies, a general rule to follow is to choose the rowwith the largest b parameter. This gives a more conserva-tive estimate of standard error.
Use of table 1-H. Use this table with table 1-B, 1-C, 1-D,or 1-F to calculate approximate standard errors for quar-terly or yearly averages, changes in consecutive quarterlyor yearly averages, and consecutive year-to-year changes

in monthly estimates. Table 1-H gives factors to be appliedonly to standard errors for monthly levels. Follow thesethree basic steps:
Step 1. Average estimates appropriately. For quarterlyestimates, average the 3 monthly estimates. For yearly es-timates, average the 12 monthly estimates. For changes inconsecutive averages, average over the 2 quarters or 2years. For consecutive year-to-year changes in monthlyestimates, average the 2 months involved.
Step 2. Obtain a standard error on a monthly estimateusing table 1-B or 1-C, or apply the procedures for table1-D or 1-F to the average calculated in step 1, as if theaverage were an estimate for a single month.
Step 3. Determine the standard error on the average oron the estimate of change. Multiply the result from step 2by the appropriate factor from table 1-H.
Illustration. Suppose that standard errors are desired for aquarterly average of black employment levels and for thechange in averages from 1 quarter to the next. For eachsuccessive month of the first quarter, suppose the levels areobserved to be 11,500,000, 11,600,000, and 11,700,000.
Step 1. The quarterly average is 11,600,000.
Step 2. Obtain the a and b parameters from table 1-F("labor force and not-in-labor-force data other than agri-cultural employment and unemployment, black, total").Use the formula for Sx to compute an approximate stan-dard error for a monthly estimate of 11,600,000.
=A/l-0.000113103X11,600,000)2 ,600,000) = 123,000
Step 3. Multiply this result by the factor .87 from table1-H (column labeled "quarterly averages" and row labeled"labor force and not-in-labor-force data other than agri-cultural employment and unemployment, black"). Thisgives an approximate standard error of 107,000 on thequarterly average of 11,600,000.
Proceed to obtain the approximate standard error onthe change in consecutive quarterly average estimates ofblack employment. Assume that black employment esti-mates for the months in the second quarter are observed tobe 11,100,000, 11,200,000, and 11,300,000.
Step 1. The average for the second quarter is 11,200,000.The average of the 2 quarters is 11,400,000.
Step 2. Obtain the a and b parameters as above and usethe formula for sx to compute an approximate standarderror for the estimate of 11,400,000, treating it as an esti-mate for a single month.
a = -0.000113103 = 2613.14
sx=V(-0.000113103)(ll,400,000)2 + (2613.
Step 3. Multiply this result by the factor .84 from table1-H (column labeled "change in quarterly averages" androw labeled "labor force and not-in-labor-force data otherthan agricultural employment and unemployment,black"). This gives an approximate standard error of103,000 on the estimated change of 400,000 from 1 quarterto the next.
The estimated change clearly exceeds 2 standard errors;therefore, one could conclude from these data that thechange in quarterly averages is significant.

Establishment Data("B" tables)
COLLECTION
BLS cooperates with State employment security agen-cies in the Current Employment Statistics (CES) or estab-lishment survey to collect data each month on employ-ment, hours, and earnings from a sample of nonfarm es-tablishments (including government.) In 1992, this sampleincluded over 370,000 reporting units. From these data, alarge number of employment, hours, and earnings series inconsiderable industry and geographic detail are preparedand published each month. Historical statistics can befound in Employment, Hours, and Earnings, UnitedStates, and Employment, Hours, and Earnings, States andAreas. These data are also available in machine-readableformat.
Each month, the State agencies collect data on employ-ment, payrolls, and paid hours from a sample of establish-ments. Data are collected by mail from most respondents;phone collection is used to obtain higher response ratesfrom selected respondents through computer-assisted in-terviews, touch-tone self-response, and'voice recognitiontechnology.
The respondents extract the requested data from theirpayroll records, which must be maintained for a variety oftax and accounting purposes. All firms with 250 em-ployees or more are asked to participate in the survey, aswell as a sample of smaller firms.
A "shuttle" schedule (BLS form 790 series) is used formail respondents. It is submitted each month by the re-spondents, edited by the State agency, and returned to therespondent for use again the following month.
The technical characteristics of the shuttle schedule areparticularly important in maintaining continuity and con-sistency in reporting from month to month. The shuttledesign automatically exhibits the trends of the reporteddata covered by the schedule during the year; therefore,the relationship of the current data to the data for the pre-vious months is shown. The schedule also has operationaladvantages. For example, accuracy and economy areachieved by entering the identification codes and the ad-dress of the reporter only once a year.
All schedules are edited by the State agencies eachmonth to make sure that the data are correctly reportedand that they are consistent with the data reported by theestablishment in earlier months and with the data reportedby other establishments in the industry. The State agenciesforward the data, either on the schedules themselves or inmachine-readable form, to BLS-Washington. They alsouse the information provided on the forms to develop Stateand area estimates of employment, hours, and earnings. AtBLS, the data are edited again by computer to detect pro-cessing and reporting errors which may have been missed
in the initial State editing; the edited data are used to pre-pare national estimates.
It should be noted that for employment, the sum of theState figures will differ from the official U.S. national to-tals because of the effects of differing industrial and geo-graphic stratification and differences in the timing ofbenchmark adjustments.
CONCEPTS
Industrial classificationEstablishments reporting on Form BLS 790 are classi-
fied into industries on the basis of their principal productor activity determined from information on annual salesvolume. Since January 1980, this information is collectedon a supplement to the quarterly unemployment insurancetax reports filed by employers. For an establishment mak-ing more than one product or engaging in more than oneactivity, the entire employment of the establishment is in-cluded under the industry indicated by the principal prod-uct or activity.
All data on employment, hours, and earnings for theNation (beginning with August 1990 data) and for Statesand areas (beginning with January 1990 data) are classi-fied in accordance with the 1987 Standard Industrial Clas-sification Manual (SIC), Office of Management and Bud-get.
Industry employmentEmployment data, except those for the Federal Govern-
ment, refer to persons on establishment payrolls who re-ceived pay for any part of the pay period which includesthe 12th day of the month. For Federal Government estab-lishments, employment figures represent the number ofpersons who occupied positions on the last day of the cal-endar month. Intermittent workers are counted if theyperformed any service during the month.
The data exclude proprietors, the self-employed, unpaidvolunteer or family workers, farm workers, and domesticworkers. Salaried officers of corporations are included.Government employment covers only civilian employees;military personnel are excluded. Employees of the CentralIntelligence Agency and the National Security Agency arealso excluded.
Persons on establishment payrolls who are on paid sickleave (when pay is received directly from the firm), on paidholiday, on paid vacation, or who work during a part of thepay period even though they are unemployed or on strikeduring the rest of the period are counted as employed. Notcounted as employed are persons who are on layoff, onleave without pay, on strike for the entire period, or whowere hired but have not yet reported during the period.

Indexes of diffusion of employment change (table B-6).These indexes measure the dispersion among industries ofthe change in employment over the specified time span.Beginning with August 1990 data, the overall indexes arecalculated from 356 seasonally adjusted employment se-ries (3-digit industries) covering all nonfarm payroll em-ployment in the private sector. The manufacturing diffu-sion indexes are based on 139 3-digit industries.
To derive the indexes, each component industry is as-signed a value of 0, 50, or 100 percent, depending onwhether its employment showed a decrease, no change, oran increase, respectively, over the time span. The averagevalue (mean) is then calculated, and this percent is the dif-fusion index number.
The reference point for diffusion analysis is 50 percent,the value which indicates that the same number of compo-nent industries had increased as had decreased. Indexnumbers above 50 show that more industries had increas-ing employment, and values below 50 indicate that morehad decreasing employment. The margin between the per-cent that increased and the percent that decreased is equalto the difference between the index and its complement,i.e., 100 minus the index. For example, an index of 65 per-cent means that 30 percent more industries had increasingemployment than had decreasing employment[65-( 100-65) = 30]. However, for dispersion analysis, thedistance of the index number from the 50-percent refer-ence point is the most significant observation.
Although diffusion indexes are commonly interpretedas showing the percent of components that increased overthe time span, it should be remembered that the index re-flects half of the unchanged components as well. (This isthe effect of assigning a value of 50 percent to the un-changed components when computing the index.)
Industry hours and earningsAverage hours and earnings data are derived from re-
ports of payrolls and hours for production and relatedworkers in manufacturing and mining, construction work-ers in construction, and nonsupervisory employees in pri-vate service-producing industries.
Production and related workers. This category includesworking supervisors and all nonsupervisory workers (in-cluding group leaders and trainees) engaged in fabricating,processing, assembling, inspecting, receiving, storing,handling, packing, warehousing/shipping, trucking, haul-ing, maintenance, repair, janitorial, guard services, prod-uct development, auxiliary production for plant's own use(e.g., power plant), recordkeeping, and other servicesclosely associated with the above production operations.
Construction workers. This group includes the followingemployees in the construction division: Working supervi-sors, qualified craft workers, mechanics, apprentices,helpers, laborers, etc., engaged in new work, alterations,
demolition, repair, maintenance, etc., whether working atthe site of construction or working in shops or yards at jobs(such as precutting and preassembling) ordinarily per-formed by members of the construction trades.
Nonsupervisory employees. These are employees (not abovethe working supervisory level) such as office and clericalworkers, repairers, salespersons, operators, drivers, physi-cians, lawyers, accountants, nurses, social workers, re-search aides, teachers, drafters, photographers, beauti-cians, musicians, restaurant workers, custodial workers,attendants, line installers and repairers, laborers, janitors,guards, and other employees at similar occupational levelswhose services are closely associated with those of the em-ployees listed.
Payroll. This refers to the payroll for full- and part-timeproduction, construction, or nonsupervisory workers whoreceived pay for any part of the pay period which includesthe 12th day of the month. The payroll is reported beforedeductions of any kind, e.g., for old-age and unemploy-ment insurance, group insurance, withholding tax, bonds,or union dues; also included is pay for overtime, holidays,vacation, and sick leave paid directly by the firm. Bonuses(unless earned and paid regularly each pay period); otherpay not earned in the pay period reported (e.g., retroactivepay); tips; and the value of free rent, fuel, meals, or otherpayment in kind are excluded. Employee benefits (such ashealth and other types of insurance, contributions to re-tirement, etc., paid by the employer) are also excluded.
Hours. These are the hours paid for during the pay periodwhich includes the 12th of the month for production, con-struction, or nonsupervisory workers. Included are hourspaid for holidays, vacations, and for sick leave when pay isreceived directly from the firm.
Overtime hours. These are hours worked by production orrelated workers for which overtime premiums were paidbecause the hours were in excess of the number of hours ofeither the straight-time workday or the workweek duringthe pay period which included the 12th of the month.Weekend and holiday hours are included only if overtimepremiums were paid. Hours for which only shift differen-tial, hazard, incentive, or other similar types of premiumswere paid are excluded.
Average weekly hours. The workweek information relatesto the average hours for which pay was received and is dif-ferent from standard or scheduled hours. Such factors asunpaid absenteeism, labor turnover, part-time work, andstoppages cause average weekly hours to be lower thanscheduled hours of work for an establishment. Group av-erages further reflect changes in the workweek of compo-nent industries.
Indexes of aggregate weekly hours. The indexes of aggre-gate weekly hours are prepared by dividing the current

month's aggregate by the average of the 12 monthly figuresfor 1982. For basic industries, the hours aggregates are theproduct of average weekly hours and production workeror nonsupervisory worker employment. At all higher lev-els of industry aggregation, hours aggregates are the sumof the component aggregates.
Average overtime hours. The overtime hours represent thatportion of the average weekly hours which exceeded regu-lar hours and for which overtime premiums were paid. Ifan employee were to work on a paid holiday at regularrates, receiving as total compensation his or her holidaypay plus straight-time pay for hours worked that day, noovertime hours would be reported.
Because overtime hours are premium hours by defini-tion, weekly hours and overtime hours do not necessarilymove in the same direction from month to month. Suchfactors as work stoppages, absenteeism, and labor turn-over may not have the same influence on overtime hours ason average hours. Diverse trends at the industry group lev-el also may be caused by a marked change in hours for acomponent industry where little or no overtime wasworked in both the previous and current months.
Average hourly earnings. Average hourly earnings are on a"gross" basis. They reflect not only changes in basic hour-ly and incentive wage rates but also such variable factors aspremium pay for overtime and late-shift work and changesin output of workers paid on an incentive plan. They alsoreflect shifts in the number of employees between relative-ly high-paid and low-paid work and changes in workers'earnings in individual establishments. Averages for groupsand divisions further reflect changes in average hourlyearnings for individual industries.
Averages of hourly earnings differ from wage rates.Earnings are the actual return to the worker for a statedperiod of time; rates are the amount stipulated for a givenunit of work or time. The earnings series do not measurethe level of total labor costs on the part of the employersince the following are excluded: Irregular bonuses, retro-active items, payments of various welfare benefits, payrolltaxes paid by employers, and earnings for those employeesnot covered under production worker, construction work-er, or nonsupervisory employee definitions.
Average hourly earnings, including lump-sum wage pay-ments. These series are compiled only for aircraft (SIC3721) and guided missiles and space vehicles (SIC 3761)manufacturing. The same concepts and estimation meth-ods apply to these series as apply to the average hourlyearnings series described above; the one difference be-tween the series is definitional. The payroll data used tocalculate this series include lump-sum payments made toproduction workers in lieu of general wage rate increases;such payments are excluded from the definition of gross
payrolls used to calculate the other average hourly earn-ings series.
For each sample establishment in SIC 3721 and SIC3761 covered by a lump-sum agreement, the reported pay-roll data are adjusted to include a prorated portion of thelump-sum payment. Such payments are generally madeonce a year and cover the following 12-month period. Inorder to spread the payment across this time period, a pro-rated portion of the payment is added to the payroll eachmonth. This prorated portion is adjusted by an exit rate toreduce the lump-sum amount to account for persons whoreceived the payment but left before the payment alloca-tion period expired.
Average hourly earnings, excluding overtime. Averagehourly earnings, excluding overtime premium pay arecomputed by dividing the total production worker payrollfor the industry group by the sum of total productionworker hours and one-half of total overtime hours. No ad-justments are made for other premium payment provi-sions, such as holiday work, late-shift work, and overtimerates other than time and one-half.
Railroad hours and earnings. The figures for Class I rail-roads (excluding switching and terminal companies) arebased on monthly data summarized in the M-300 report ofthe Interstate Commerce Commission and relate to all em-ployees except executives, officials, and staff assistants(ICC group I) who received pay during the month. Aver-age hourly earnings are computed by dividing total com-pensation by total hours paid for. Average weekly hoursare obtained by dividing the total number of hours paidfor, reduced to a weekly basis, by the number of em-ployees, as defined above. Average weekly earnings arederived by multiplying average weekly hours by averagehourly earnings.
Average weekly earnings. These estimates are derived bymultiplying average weekly hours estimates by averagehourly earnings estimates. Therefore, weekly earnings areaffected not only by changes in average hourly earningsbut also by changes in the length of the workweek. Month-ly variations in such factors as the proportion of part-timeworkers, stoppages for varying reasons, labor turnoverduring the survey period, and absenteeism for which em-ployees are not paid may cause the average workweek tofluctuate.
Long-term trends of average weekly earnings can be af-fected by structural changes in the makeup of the workforce. For example, persistent long-term increases in theproportion of part-time workers in retail trade and manyof the services industries have reduced average workweeksin these industries and have affected the average weeklyearnings series.
Real earnings. These earnings are in constant dollars andare calculated from the earnings averages for the current

month using a deflator derived from the Consumer PriceIndex for Urban Wage Earners and Clerical Workers(CPI-W). The reference year for these series is 1982.
ESTIMATING METHODS
The Current Employment Statistics (CES) or establish-ment survey estimates of employment are generatedthrough an annual benchmark and monthly sample linkprocedure. Annual universe counts or benchmark levelsare generated primarily from administrative records onemployees covered by unemployment insurance (UI) taxlaws. These annual benchmarks, established for March ofeach year, are projected forward for each subsequentmonth based on the trend of the sample employment, us-ing an estimation procedure called the link relative.Benchmarks and sample link relatives are computed foreach of 1,690 basic estimation cells defined by industry,size, and geography for the CES national estimates, andsummed to create aggregate level employment estimates.
BenchmarksThe establishment survey constructs annual bench-
marks in order to realign the sample-based employmenttotals for March of each year with the Ul-based popula-tion counts for March. These population counts are muchless timely than sample-based estimates; however, theyprovide an annual point-in-time census for employment.
Population counts are derived from the administrativefile of employees covered by UI. All employers covered byUI laws are required to report employment and wage in-formation to the appropriate State employment securityagency four times a year. Approximately 99 percent of in-scope private employment is covered by UI. A benchmarkfor the remaining 1 percent is constructed from alternatesources, primarily records from the Interstate CommerceCommission and the Social Security Administration. Thefull benchmark developed for March replaces the Marchsample-based estimate, for each basic cell. The monthlysample-based estimates for the year preceding and the yearfollowing the benchmark are also then subject to revision.
Monthly estimates for the year preceding the Marchbenchmark are readjusted using a "wedge back" proce-dure. The difference between the final benchmark leveland the previously published March sample estimate iscalculated and spread back across the previous 11 months.The wedge is linear; eleven-twelfths of the March differ-ence is added to the February estimates, ten-twelfths to theJanuary estimates, and so on, back to the previous Aprilestimates which receive one-twelfth of the March differ-ence. This assumes that the total estimation error since thelast benchmark accumulated at a steady rate throughoutthe current benchmark year.
Estimates for the 11 months following the Marchbenchmark are also recalculated each year. These post-benchmark estimates reflect the application of sample-
based monthly changes to new benchmark levels forMarch, and the recomputation of bias adjustment factorsfor each month. Bias factors are updated to take into ac-count the most recent experience of the estimates gener-ated by the monthly sample versus the full universe countsderived from the UI.
Following the revision of basic employment estimates,all other derivative series (e.g., production workers, aver-age hourly earnings) are also recalculated. New seasonaladjustment factors are calculated and all data series for theprevious 5 years are reseasonally adjusted, prior to fullpublication of all revised data in June of each year.
Monthly estimationEstimates are derived from a sample of approximately
370,000 business establishments nationwide. A currentmonth's estimate is derived as the product of the previousmonth's estimate and a sample link relative for the currentmonth. A bias adjustment factor is then applied to this re-sult primarily to help account for new business births dur-ing the month.
Stratification. The sample is stratified into 1,690 basic esti-mation cells for purposes of computing national employ-ment, hours, and earnings estimates. Cells are defined pri-marily by detailed industry, and secondarily by size for amajority of cells. In a few industries, mostly within theconstruction division, geographic stratification is alsoused. Industry classification is in accordance with the1987 Standard Industrial Classification Manual (SIC);most estimation cells are defined at the 4-digit SIC level.
This detailed stratification pattern allows for the pro-duction and publication of estimates in considerable in-dustry detail. Sub-industry stratification by size is impor-tant because major statistics which the survey measures,particularly employment change and average earnings, of-ten vary significantly between establishments of differentsize. Stratification reduces the variance of the publishedindustry level estimates.
Link relative technique. A ratio of the previous to the cur-rent month's employment is computed from a sample ofestablishments reporting for both months —this ratio iscalled a "link relative." For each basic cell, a link relative iscomputed and applied to the previous month's employ-ment estimate to derive the current month's estimate.Thus a March benchmark is moved forward to the nextMarch benchmark through application of monthly linkrelatives. Basic cell estimates created through the link rela-tive technique are aggregated to form published industrylevel estimates, for employment, as described in table 2-A.Basic estimation and aggregation methods for the hoursand earnings data are also shown in table 2-A.
Bias adjustment. Bias adjustment factors are computed atthe 3-digit SIC level, and applied each month at the

basic cell level, as part of the standard estimation proce-dures. The main purpose of bias adjustment is to reduce aprimary source of nonsampling error in the survey, the in-ability to capture, on a timely basis, employment gener-ated by new firm births. There is a several month lag be-tween an establishment opening for business and its ap-pearing on the UI universe frame and being available forsampling. Because new firms generate a portion of em-ployment growth each month of the year, nonsamplingmethods must be used to capture this growth, otherwisesubstantial under estimation of total employment levelswould occur. Formal bias adjustment procedures havebeen used by the establishment survey since the late1960's. Prior to the 1983 benchmark, bias adjustmentswere derived from a simple mean error model, which aver-aged undercount errors for the previous 3 years to arrive atbias projections for the coming year. The undercounterrors were measured as the difference between sample-based estimate results and benchmark levels.
This procedure eventually proved inadequate duringperiods of rapidly changing employment trends, and thebias adjustment methodology was revised. Research donein the early 1980's indicated that bias requirements werestrongly correlated with current employment growth ordecline. Based on this research, a revised method was de-veloped which incorporated the sample data on employ-ment growth over the most recent two quarters, and a re-gression-derived coefficient for the significance of thatchange, to adjust the mean error model results. Thischange in methodology provided a more cyclically sensi-tive bias model. The regression-adjusted mean error modelhas been in use since 1983, for the production of nationalestimates.
The current model still has limitations in its ability toreact to changing economic conditions or changing errorstructure relationships between the sample-based esti-mates and the UI universe counts. A principal limitation isthe inability to incorporate UI universe counts as they be-come available on an ongoing basis, with a 6- to 9-monthlag from the reference period. Thus, the current quarterlyoutputs from the model are subject to intervention analy-sis, and adjustments can be made to its results, prior to theestablishment of final bias levels for a quarter. Review isdone primarily in terms of detection of outlier (i.e., abnor-mally high or low) values, and by comparison of CES sam-ple and bias trends with the most recent quarterly observa-tions of UI universe counts. The BLS currently has understudy improved bias models using a Kalman filter tech-nique, which would allow a more formal, structured incor-poration of each quarter's UI universe counts in the biasmodeling process.
Although the primary function of bias adjustment is toaccount for employment resulting from new business for-mations, it also adjusts for other elements of nonsamplingerror in the survey, because the primary input to the mod-
eling procedure is total estimation error. Significantamong these nonsampling error sources is a business deathbias. When a sampled firm closes down, most often it sim-ply does not respond to the survey that month, rather thanreporting zero employment. Foliowup with nonrespond-ents may reveal an out-of-business firm, but this informa-tion is often received too late to incorporate into monthlyestimates, and the firm is simply treated as a nonrespond-ent for that month.
Because the bias adjustments incorporated into the esti-mates represent a composite of a birth bias, death bias, anda number of other differences between the sample-basedestimates and the population counts, the monthly bias ad-justment levels have no specific economic meaning in andof themselves.
Table 2-B summarizes bias adjustments made over thepast 10 years. The table displays the average monthly "biasadded" and the average monthly "bias required" with thebenchmark revisions for each year. Bias added shows theaverage amount of bias which was added each month overthe course of an interbenchmark period. For example, thebias added for 1984 is listed as 140,000; this represents theaverage of bias adjustments made each month over theperiod April 1983 through May 1984. Bias required iscomputed retrospectively, after the March benchmark fora given year is known. Bias required figures are calculatedby taking the difference between a March estimate derivedpurely from the sample (i.e., a series calculated withoutbias adjustment) and the March benchmark. Dividing thisfigure by 12 gives the average monthly bias required fig-ure. The bias required is thus defined as the amount of biasadjustment which would have achieved a zero benchmarkerror. The difference between the total bias required andthe total bias added is then, by definition, approximatelythe benchmark revision amount, for any given year. Alsoprovided in the table for illustration, are the March-to-March changes. As discussed above, the over-the-yearchanges indicate correlation with the bias added and biasrequired figures.
THE SAMPLE
DesignThe emphasis in the establishment survey is on produc-
ing timely data at minimum cost. Therefore, the primarygoal of its design is to sample a sufficiently large segmentof the universe to provide reliable estimates that can bepublished both promptly and regularly. The present sam-ple allows BLS to produce preliminary total nonfarm em-ployment estimates for each month, including some lim-ited industry detail, within 3 weeks after the reference peri-od, and data in considerably more detail with an addition-al one-month lag.
The sampling plan used in the establishment survey is a
181
Digitized for FRASER http://fraser.stlouisfed.org/ Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis
form of sampling with probability proportionate to size,known as "sampling proportionate to average size of es-tablishment." This is an optimum allocation design amongstrata because sampling variance is proportional to the av-erage size of establishments. The universe of establishmentemployment is highly skewed, with a large percentage oftotal employment concentrated in relatively few establish-ments. Because variance on a population total estimate is afunction of percentage universe coverage achieved by thesample, it is efficient to sample larger establishments at ahigher rate than smaller establishments, assuming the costper sample unit is fairly constant across size classes.
Under the establishment survey design, large establish-ments fall into a certainty strata for sample selection. Thesize of the sample for the various industries is determinedempirically on the basis of experience and cost consider-ations. For example, in a manufacturing industry with ahigh proportion of total employment concentrated in asmall number of establishments, a larger percent of totalemployment is included in the sample. Consequently, thesample design for such industries provides for a completecensus of the large establishments, with a relatively fewchosen from among the smaller establishments. For an in-dustry in which a large proportion of total employment isconcentrated in small establishments, the sample designagain calls for inclusion of all large establishments but alsofor a more substantial number of smaller ones. Many in-dustries in the trade and services divisions fall into thiscategory. To keep the sample to a size which can be han-dled by available resources, it is necessary to have a sampledesign for these industries with a smaller proportion of to-tal universe coverage than is the case for most manufactur-ing industries.
CoverageThe establishment survey is the largest monthly sam-
pling operation in the field of social statistics. Table 2-Cshows the latest benchmark employment levels and the ap-proximate proportion of total universe employment cover-age, at the total nonfarm and major industry division lev-els. The coverage for individual industries within the divi-sions may vary from the proportions shown.
ReliabilityThe establishment survey, like other sample surveys, is
subject to two types of error, sampling and nonsamplingerror. The magnitude of sampling error, or variance, is di-rectly related to the size of the sample and the percentageof universe coverage achieved by the sample. The estab-lishment survey sample covers over one-third of total uni-verse employment; this yields a very small variance on thetotal nonfarm estimates. Measurements of error asso-ciated with sample estimates are provided in tables 2-Dthrough 2-G.
Benchmark revision as a measure of survey error. The sumof sampling and nonsampling error can be considered totalsurvey error. Unlike most sample surveys which publishsampling error as their only measure of error, the CES canderive an annual approximation of total error, on a laggedbasis, because of the availability of the independentlyderived universe data. While the benchmark error is usedas a measure of total error for the CES survey estimate,technically, it actually represents the difference betweentwo independent estimates derived from separate surveyprocesses (i.e., the CES sample process and the UI uni-verse process) and thus reflects the errors present in

each program. Historically, the benchmark revision hasbeen very small for total nonfarm employment. Over thepast decade, percentage benchmark error has averaged 0.2percent, with a range from zero to 0.6 percent. Table 2-Dshows the most current benchmark revisions, along with10-year mean revisions and mean absolute revisions formajor industries. Mean revisions give an indication of biasin the estimates; unbiased estimates have a mean revisionclose to zero, as over and under estimations cancel outover time. Mean absolute revisions give an overall indica-tor as to the accuracy of the estimates; the larger the value,the further the estimate was from the final benchmarklevel.
An alternate measure for determining the reliability ofthe employment estimates for individual industries is theroot-mean-square error. This measure is the standard de-viation adjusted for the bias in the estimates:
' (standard deviation)2 + (bias)2
If the bias is small, the chances are about 19 out of 20that the difference would be less than twice the root-mean-square error.
Approximations of the root-mean-square errors ofdifferences between final estimates and benchmarks arepresented in table 2-E.
Noneconomic code changes. A major source of benchmarkrevision at the major industry division level and below arenoneconomic code changes, which are introduced into theuniverse data in the first quarter of each calendar year.
Approximately one-third of all establishments in theuniverse are included in the universe program's annualStandard Industrial Classification (SIC) refiling survey.Corrections to individual establishments SIC and owner-ship codes are made through this process. The refilingcycle is such that every third year entire division(s) aresubject to refiling. The volume of these adjustments is gen-erally quite large and has a substantial impact on universeemployment counts at the industry levels, although the to-tal nonfarm employment level remains unaffected. For ex-ample, in a year when the services division is refiled, a sub-stantial amount of employment is usually reclassified outof services to other major divisions, thus, lowering thebenchmark level for services, and potentially causing a sig-nificant downward revision in the services employment to-tals previously published.
Hours and earnings. The hours and earnings estimates forthe basic estimating cells do not have universe data sourcesavailable and therefore are not subject to benchmark revi-sions, although the broader groupings may be affected
slightly by changes in employment weights. The hours andearnings estimates, however, are subject to sampling er-rors, which may be expressed as relative errors of the esti-mates. (A relative error is a standard error expressed as apercent of the estimate.) Relative errors for major indus-tries are presented in table 2-F and for individual industrieswith the specified number of employees in table 2-E. Thechances are about 2 out of 3 that the hours and earningsestimates from the sample would differ by a smaller per-centage than the relative error from the averages thatwould have been obtained from a complete census.
Revisions between preliminary and final data. First prelim-inary estimates of employment, hours, and earnings, basedon less than the total sample, are published immediatelyfollowing the reference month. Final revised sample-basedestimates are published 2 months later when nearly all thereports in the sample have been received. Table 2-G pres-ents the root-mean-square error, the mean percent, andthe mean absolute percent revision that may be expectedbetween the preliminary and final employment estimates.

The interpretation of these measures is parallel to the de-scription above for revisions between final sample-basedestimates and benchmarks (i.e., tables 2-C and 2-E).
Revisions of preliminary hours and earnings estimatesare normally not greater than 0.1 of an hour for weeklyhours and 1 cent for hourly earnings, at the total privatenonfarm level, and may be slightly larger for the more de-tailed industry groupings.
STATISTICS FOR STATES AND AREAS
(Tables B-7, B-14, and B-18)As explained earlier, State agencies in cooperation with
BLS collect and prepare State and area employment,hours, and earnings data. These statistics are based on thesame establishment reports used by BLS, however, BLSuses the full CES sample to produce monthly national em-ployment estimates, while each State agency uses its por-tion of the sample to independently develop a State em-ployment estimate.
The CES area statistics relate to metropolitan areas.Definitions for all areas are published each year in the is-sue of Employment and Earnings that contains State andarea annual averages (usually the May issue). Changes indefinitions are noted as they occur. Additional industrydetail may be obtained from the State agencies listed on theinside back cover of each issue.
Caution in aggregating State data. The national estimationprocedures used by BLS are designed to produce accuratenational data by detailed industry; correspondingly theState estimation procedures are designed to produce accu-rate data for each individual State. State estimates are notforced to sum to national totals nor vice versa. Becauseeach State series is subject to larger sampling and nonsam-pling errors than the national series, summing them cumu-lates individual State level errors and can cause distortionsat an aggregate level. This has been a particular problem atturning points in the U.S. economy, when the majority ofthe individual State errors tend to be in the same direction.Due to these statistical limitations, the Bureau does notcompile or publish a "sum-of-States" employment series.Additionally, BLS cautions users that such a series is sub-ject to a relatively large and volatile error structure, partic-ularly at turning points.

Regional, State, and Area Labor Force Data("C" tables)
FEDERAL-STATE COOPERATIVE PROGRAM
Labor force and unemployment estimates for States,labor market areas (LMA's), and other areas coveredunder Federal assistance programs are developed by Stateemployment security agencies under a Federal-Statecooperative program. The local unemployment estimateswhich derive from standardized procedures developed byBLS are the basis for determining eligibility of an area forbenefits under Federal programs such as the Job Trainingand Partnership Act.
Annual average data for the States and over 260 areasshown in table C-3 are published in Employment andEarnings (usually the May issue). For regions, States,selected metropolitan areas, and central cities, annualaverage data classified by selected demographic, social,and economic characteristics are published in the BLSbulletin, Geographic Profile of Employment and Unem-ployment.
Labor force estimates for counties, cities, and othersmall areas have been prepared for administration ofvarious Federal economic assistance programs and may beordered from the Superintendent of Documents, U.S.Government Printing Office, Washington, DC 20402. Thereport "Unemployment in States and Local Areas" ispublished monthly through GPO and is available inmicrofiche form only, on a subscription basis.
ESTIMATING METHODS
Monthly labor force, employment, and unemploymentestimates are prepared for the 50 States, the District ofColumbia, and over 6,500 areas, including nearly 2,400LMA's, counties, and cities with a population of 25,000 ormore. The estimation methods are described below forStates (and the District of Columbia) and for sub-Stateareas. At the sub-LMA level, (county and city), estimatesare prepared using disaggregation techniques based ondecennial and annual population estimates and currentunemployment insurance data. A more detailed descrip-tion of the estimation procedure is contained in the BLSdocument, Manual for Developing Local Area Unemploy-ment Statistics.
Estimates for States
Current monthly estimates. The civilian labor force andunemployment estimates for 11 large States — California,Florida, Illinois, Massachusetts, Michigan, New Jersey,
New York, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, andTexas —are sufficiently reliable to be taken directly fromthe Current Population Survey (CPS) on a monthly basis.These are termed "direct-use States." For a description ofthe CPS concepts, see "Household Data," above.
For the 39 smaller States and the District of Columbia,which do not use the CPS directly each month, modelsbased on a "signal-plus-noise" approach are used todevelop employment and unemployment estimates. Theseare the "non-direct-use" States. The model of the signal is atime series model of the true labor force which consists ofthree components: A variable coefficient regression, aflexible trend, and a flexible seasonal component. Theregression techniques are based on historical and currentrelationships found within each State's economy asreflected in the different sources of data that are availablefor each State —the CPS, the Current EmploymentStatistics (CES) survey, and the unemployment insurance(UI) system. The noise component of the models explicitlyaccounts for autocorrelation in the CPS sampling errorand changes in the average magnitude of the error. Inaddition, the models can identify and remove the effects ofoutliers in the historical CPS series. While all the Statemodels have important components in common, theydiffer somewhat from one another to better reflectindividual State characteristics.
Two models —one for the employment-to-populationratio and one for the unemployment rate —are used foreach State. The employment-to-population ratio, ratherthan the employment level, and the unemployment rate,rather than the unemployment level, are estimatedprimarily because these ratios are usually more meaning-ful for economic analysis.
The employment-to-population ratio models use the re-lationship between the State's monthly employment fromthe CES and the CPS. The models also include trend andseasonal components to account for movements in theCPS not captured by the CES series. The seasonal compo-nent accounts for the seasonally in the CPS not explainedby the CES while the trend component adjusts for long-run systematic differences between the two series.
The unemployment rate models use the relationshipbetween the State's monthly unemployment insuranceclaims data and the CPS unemployment rate, along withtrend and seasonal components.
In both the employment-to-population ratio andunemployment rate models, an important feature is theuse of a technique that allows the equations to adjust
188
Digitized for FRASER http://fraser.stlouisfed.org/ Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis
automatically to structural changes that occur. Theregression portion of the model includes a built-in tuningmechanism, known as the Kalman Filter, which revises amodel's coefficients when the new data that becomeavailable each month indicate that changes in the datarelationships have taken place. Once the estimates aredeveloped from the models, levels are calculated for theemployment, unemployment, and labor force levels.
Benchmark correction procedures. Once each year, month-ly estimates for the 39 non-direct-use States and theDistrict of Columbia are adjusted, or benchmarked, byBLS to the annual average CPS estimates. The bench-marking technique employs a procedure (called theDenton method) which adjusts the annual average of themodels to equal the CPS annual average, while preserving,as much as possible, the original monthly seasonal patternof the model estimates.
In the 11 direct-use States, no benchmark correction isrequired; the average of the 12 monthly State CPS esti-mates will equal the CPS annual averages.
Estimates for sub-State areasMonthly labor force and employment estimates for two
large sub-State areas —New York City and the LosAngeles-Long Beach metropolitan area —are obtaineddirectly from the CPS. Estimates for the nearly 2,400LMA's, are prepared through indirect estimation tech-niques, described below.
Preliminary estimate—employment. The total civilianemployment estimates are based on CES data. These"place-of-work" estimates must be adjusted to refer toplace of residence as used in the CPS. Factors for adjustingfrom place of work to place of residence have been
developed for several categories of employment on thebasis of employment relationships at the time of the 1990decennial census. These factors are applied to the CESestimates for the current period to obtain adjustedemployment estimates, to which are added estimates foremployment not represented in the CES —agriculturalemployees, nonagricultural self-employed and unpaidfamily workers, and private household workers.
Preliminary estimate—unemployment. In the currentmonth, the estimate of unemployment is an aggregate ofthe estimates for each of three categories: (1) Persons whowere previously employed in industries covered by StateUI laws; (2) those previously employed in industries notcovered by these laws; and (3) those who were entering thecivilian labor force for the first time or reentering after aperiod of separation.
Sub-State adjustment for additivity. Estimates of employ-ment and unemployment are prepared for the State andLMA's within the State. The LMA estimates geographi-cally exhaust the entire State. Thus, a proportionaladjustment must be applied to all sub-State LMAestimates to ensure that they add to the independentlyestimated State totals for employment and unemploy-ment.
Benchmark correction. At the end of each year, sub-Stateestimates are revised. The revisions incorporate anychanges in the inputs, such as revisions in the CES-basedemployment figures, corrections in claims counts, and up-dated historical relationships. The corrected estimates arethen readjusted to add to the revised (benchmarked) Stateestimates of employment and unemployment.

Seasonal Adjustment
Over the course of a year, the size of the Nation's laborforce, the levels of employment and unemployment, andother measures of labor market activity undergo sharpfluctuations due to such seasonal events as changes inweather, reduced or expanded production, harvests, majorholidays, and the opening and closing of schools. Becausethese seasonal events follow a more or less regular patterneach year, their influence on statistical trends can beeliminated by adjusting the statistics from month tomonth. These adjustments make it easier to observe thecyclical and other nonseasonal movements in the series. Inevaluating changes in a seasonally adjusted series, it isimportant to note that seasonal adjustment is merely anapproximation based on past experience. Seasonallyadjusted estimates have a broader margin of possible errorthan the original data on which they are based, becausethey are subject not only to sampling and other errors butare also affected by the uncertainties of the seasonaladjustment process itself. Seasonally adjusted series forselected labor force and establishment-based data arepublished monthly in Employment and Earnings.
Since January 1980, national labor force data have beenseasonally adjusted with a procedure called X-ll ARIMA(Auto-Regressive Integrated Moving Average), which wasdeveloped at Statistics Canada as an extension of the stan-dard X-ll method. A detailed description of the proce-dure appears in The X-ll ARIMA Seasonal AdjustmentMethod by Estela Bee Dagum, Statistics Canada Cata-logue No. 12-564E, January 1983.
At the beginning of each calendar year, projectedseasonal adjustment factors are calculated for use duringthe January-June period. In July of each year, BLScalculates and publishes in Employment and Earningsprojected seasonal adjustment factors for use in the secondhalf, based on the experience through June. Revisions ofhistorical data for the most recent 5 years are made only atthe beginning of each calendar year. However, as a resultof the revisions to the estimates for 1970-81 based on 1980census population counts, revisions to seasonally adjustedseries in early 1982 were carried back to 1970.
All labor force and unemployment rate statistics, as wellas the major employment and unemployment estimates,are computed by aggregating independently adjustedseries. For example, for each of the three major labor forcecomponents —agricultural employment, nonagriculturalemployment, and unemployment —data for four sex-agegroups (men and women under and over 20 years of age)are separately adjusted for seasonal variation and are thenadded to derive seasonally adjusted total figures. Theseasonally adjusted figure for the labor force is a sum ofeight seasonally adjusted civilian employment compo-nents and four seasonally adjusted unemployment
components. The total for unemployment is the sum of thefour unemployment components, and the unemploymentrate is derived by dividing the resulting estimate of totalunemployment by the estimate of the labor force. Becauseof the independent seasonal adjustment of various series,components will not necessarily add to totals.
In each January issue, Employment and Earningspublishes revised seasonally adjusted data for selectedlabor force series based on the experience throughDecember, new seasonal adjustment factors to be used tocalculate the civilian unemployment estimate for the first 6months of the following year, and a description of thecurrent seasonal adjustment procedure.
Since the early 1980's, BLS has also used the X-llARIMA procedure to seasonally adjust national establish-ment-based employment, hours, and earnings data. TheX-ll ARIMA program had been run once each year afterbenchmarking and seasonal adjustment factors had beenprojected and published for 12 months ahead (April-March). Beginning in June 1989, with the introduction ofthe March 1988 benchmarks, the Bureau modified thisprocedure to parallel that used in seasonally adjustinghousehold survey data. Projected seasonal adjustmentfactors are calculated and published twice a year.Revisions of historical data are made once a year,coincident with benchmark revisions.
All series are seasonally adjusted using the multiplica-tive models under X-ll ARIMA. Seasonal adjustmentfactors are computed and applied at component levels. Foremployment series, these are generally the 2-digit SIClevels in manufacturing, services, and wholesale trade; inother industry divisions where only some of thecomponents are seasonally adjusted, the division estimatesand their component industries are adjusted independent-ly. Seasonally adjusted totals are arithmetic aggregationsfor employment series and weighted averages of theseasonally adjusted data for hours and earnings series.
Seasonally adjusted average weekly earnings are theproduct of seasonally adjusted average hourly earningsand seasonally adjusted average weekly hours. Averageweekly earnings in constant dollars, seasonally adjusted,are obtained by dividing average weekly earnings,seasonally adjusted, by the seasonally adjusted ConsumerPrice Index for Urban Wage Earners and ClericalWorkers (CPI-W), and multiplying by 100. Indexes ofaggregate weekly hours, seasonally adjusted, are obtainedby multiplying average weekly hours, seasonally adjusted,by production or nonsupervisory workers, seasonallyadjusted, and dividing by the 1982 annual average base.For total private, total goods-producing, total privateservice-producing, and major industry divisions, theindexes of aggregate weekly hours, seasonally adjusted.
190

are obtained by summing the aggregate weekly hours,seasonally adjusted, for the appropriate componentindustries and dividing by the 1982 annual average base.
Seasonally adjusted data are not published for a numberof series characterized by small seasonal componentsrelative to their trend-cycle and/or irregular components.These failed or unsatisfactory seasonally adjusted series,however, are used in the aggregation to broader levelseasonally adjusted series.
Seasonal adjustment factors for Federal Governmentemployment are derived from unadjusted data which in-clude Christmas temporary workers employed by thePostal Service. The number of temporary census workersfor the decennial census, however, are removed prior tothe calculation of seasonal adjustment factors.
BLS has developed an extension of X-l l ARIMA toallow it to adjust more adequately for the effects of thepresence or absence of religious holidays in the Aprilsurvey reference period and of Labor Day in theSeptember reference period. This extension was appliedfor the first time at the end of 1989 to three persons-at-work labor force series which tested as having significantand well-defined effects in their April data associated withthe timing of Easter. This extension was also used for theseasonal adjustment of many of the establishment-basedseries on average weekly hours and manufacturingovertime hours, starting with the computation of theprojected factors for the period beginning in April 1990.Effective with the computation of factors for theNovember 1993-April 1994 period, an extension of themoving-holiday adjustment was introduced to adjust forthe effects of elections on local government employment.
Revised seasonally adjusted national establishment-based series based on the experience through March 1993,new seasonal adjustment factors for May-October 1993,and a description of the current seasonal adjustmentprocedure appear in the June 1993 issue of Employment
and Earnings. Factors for the November 1993-April 1994period appear in the December issue.
Beginning in 1992, BLS introduced publication ofseasonally adjusted labor force data for the census regionsand divisions, the 50 States, and the District of Columbia(tables C-l and C-2). Using the X-ll ARIMA procedure,seasonal adjustment factors are computed and appliedindependently to the component employment and unem-ployment levels and then aggregated to regional or Statetotals. Current seasonal adjustment factors are producedfor 6-month periods twice a year. Historical revisions aremade at the beginning of each calendar year. Because ofthe separate processing procedures, totals for the Nationas a whole differ from the results obtained by aggregatingregional or State data.
Beginning in 1993, BLS introduced publication ofseasonally adjusted nonfarm payroll employment data bymajor industry for all States and the District of Columbia(table B-7). Seasonal adjustment factors are applieddirectly to the employment estimates at the division level(component series for manufacturing and trade) and thenaggregated to the State totals. The recomputation ofseasonal factors and historical revisions are made coinci-dent with the annual benchmark adjustments. Stateestimation procedures are designed to produce accurate(unadjusted and seasonally adjusted) data for eachindividual State. BLS independently develops a nationalemployment series; State estimates are not forced to sumto national totals. Because each Sate series is subject tolarger sampling and nonsampling errors than the nationalseries, summing them cumulates individual State levelerrors and can cause significant distortions at an aggregatelevel. Due to these statistical limitations, BLS does notcompile a "sum-of-States" employment series, and cau-tions users that such a series is subject to a relatively largeand volatile error structure.
