                       THE EMPLOYMENT SITUATION -- JUNE 2021


Total nonfarm payroll employment rose by 850,000 in June, and the unemployment
rate was little changed at 5.9 percent, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics
reported today. Notable job gains occurred in leisure and hospitality, public
and private education, professional and business services, retail trade, and
other services.

This news release presents statistics from two monthly surveys. The household
survey measures labor force status, including unemployment, by demographic
characteristics. The establishment survey measures nonfarm employment, hours,
and earnings by industry. For more information about the concepts and statistical
methodology used in these two surveys, see the Technical Note.

Household Survey Data

Both the unemployment rate, at 5.9 percent, and the number of unemployed persons,
at 9.5 million, were little changed in June. These measures are down considerably
from their recent highs in April 2020 but remain well above their levels prior
to the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic (3.5 percent and 5.7 million, respectively,
in February 2020). (See table A-1. See the box note at the end of this news release
for more information about how the household survey and its measures were affected
by the coronavirus pandemic.)

Among the major worker groups, the unemployment rates for adult men (5.9 percent),
adult women (5.5 percent), teenagers (9.9 percent), Whites (5.2 percent), Blacks
(9.2 percent), Asians (5.8 percent), and Hispanics (7.4 percent) showed little
or no change in June. (See tables A-1, A-2, and A-3.)

Among the unemployed, the number of job leavers--that is, unemployed persons who
quit or voluntarily left their previous job and began looking for new employment--
increased by 164,000 to 942,000 in June. The number of persons on temporary layoff,
at 1.8 million, was essentially unchanged over the month. This measure is down
considerably from the high of 18.0 million in April 2020 but is 1.1 million above
the February 2020 level. The number of permanent job losers, at 3.2 million, was
also essentially unchanged over the month but is 1.9 million higher than in February
2020. (See table A-11.)

In June, the number of long-term unemployed (those jobless for 27 weeks or more)
increased by 233,000 to 4.0 million, following a decline of 431,000 in May. This
measure is 2.9 million higher than in February 2020. These long-term unemployed
accounted for 42.1 percent of the total unemployed in June. The number of persons
jobless less than 5 weeks, at 2.0 million, changed little in June. (See table A-12.)

The labor force participation rate was unchanged at 61.6 percent in June and has
remained within a narrow range of 61.4 percent to 61.7 percent since June 2020.
The participation rate is 1.7 percentage points lower than in February 2020. The
employment-population ratio, at 58.0 percent, was also unchanged in June but is
up by 0.6 percentage point since December 2020. However, this measure is 3.1
percentage points below its February 2020 level. (See table A-1.)

The number of persons employed part time for economic reasons decreased by 644,000
to 4.6 million in June. This decline reflected a drop in the number of persons
whose hours were cut due to slack work or business conditions. The number of persons
employed part time for economic reasons is up by 229,000 since February 2020. These
individuals, who would have preferred full-time employment, were working part time
because their hours had been reduced or they were unable to find full-time jobs.
(See table A-8.)

In June, the number of persons not in the labor force who currently want a job was
6.4 million, little changed over the month but up by 1.4 million since February
2020. These individuals were not counted as unemployed because they were not
actively looking for work during the last 4 weeks or were unavailable to take a
job. (See table A-1.)

Among those not in the labor force who currently want a job, the number of persons
marginally attached to the labor force, at 1.8 million, changed little in June
but is up by 393,000 since February 2020. These individuals wanted and were
available for work and had looked for a job sometime in the prior 12 months but
had not looked for work in the 4 weeks preceding the survey. The number of
discouraged workers, a subset of the marginally attached who believed that no jobs
were available for them, was 617,000 in June, essentially unchanged from the
previous month but 216,000 higher than in February 2020. (See Summary table A.)

Household Survey Supplemental Data

In June, 14.4 percent of employed persons teleworked because of the coronavirus
pandemic, down from 16.6 percent in the prior month. These data refer to employed
persons who teleworked or worked at home for pay at some point in the last 4 weeks
specifically because of the pandemic.

In June, 6.2 million persons reported that they had been unable to work because
their employer closed or lost business due to the pandemic--that is, they did not
work at all or worked fewer hours at some point in the last 4 weeks due to the
pandemic. This measure is down from 7.9 million in May. Among those who reported
in June that they were unable to work because of pandemic-related closures or
lost business, 10.0 percent received at least some pay from their employer for 
the hours not worked, little changed from the previous month. 

Among those not in the labor force in June, 1.6 million persons were prevented
from looking for work due to the pandemic. This measure is down from 2.5 million
in May. (To be counted as unemployed, by definition, individuals must be either
actively looking for work or on temporary layoff.)

These supplemental data come from questions added to the household survey beginning
in May 2020 to help gauge the effects of the pandemic on the labor market. The data
are not seasonally adjusted. Tables with estimates from the supplemental questions
for all months are available online at 
www.bls.gov/cps/effects-of-the-coronavirus-covid-19-pandemic.htm.

Establishment Survey Data

Total nonfarm payroll employment rose by 850,000 in June, following increases of
583,000 in May and 269,000 in April. In June, nonfarm payroll employment is up by
15.6 million since April 2020 but is down by 6.8 million, or 4.4 percent, from its
pre-pandemic level in February 2020. Notable job gains in June occurred in leisure
and hospitality, public and private education, professional and business services,
retail trade, and other services. (See table B-1. See the box note at the end of 
this news release for more information about how the establishment survey and its
measures were affected by the coronavirus pandemic.)

In June, employment in leisure and hospitality increased by 343,000, as pandemic-
related restrictions continued to ease in some parts of the country. Over half of
the job gain was in food services and drinking places (+194,000). Employment also
continued to increase in accommodation (+75,000) and in arts, entertainment, and
recreation (+74,000). Employment in leisure and hospitality is down by 2.2 million,
or 12.9 percent, from its level in February 2020.

In June, employment rose by 155,000 in local government education, by 75,000 in
state government education, and by 39,000 in private education. In both public and
private education, staffing fluctuations due to the pandemic, in part reflecting 
the return to in-person learning and other school-related activities, have distorted
the normal seasonal buildup and layoff patterns, likely contributing to the job 
gains in June. (Without the typical seasonal employment increases earlier, there
were fewer layoffs at the end of the school year, resulting in job gains after
seasonal adjustment.) These variations make it more challenging to discern the 
current employment trends in these industries. Since February 2020, employment is
down by 414,000 in local government education, by 168,000 in state government
education, and by 255,000 in private education.

Employment in professional and business services rose by 72,000 in June but is down
by 633,000 since February 2020. In June, employment rose in temporary help services
(+33,000), advertising and related services (+8,000), scientific research and
development services (+7,000), and legal services (+6,000). 

Retail trade added 67,000 jobs in June, but employment is down by 303,000, or 1.9
percent, since February 2020. Over the month, job growth in clothing and clothing
accessories stores (+28,000), general merchandise stores (+25,000), miscellaneous
store retailers (+13,000), and automobile dealers (+8,000) was partially offset by
losses in food and beverage stores (-13,000) and health and personal care stores 
(-7,000).

The other services industry added 56,000 jobs in June, with gains in personal and
laundry services (+29,000), in membership associations and organizations (+18,000),
and in repair and maintenance (+9,000). Employment in other services is 297,000 
lower than in February 2020. 

Employment in social assistance rose by 32,000 in June, largely in child day care
services (+25,000). Employment in social assistance is down by 236,000 from its
level in February 2020.

In June, wholesale trade added 21,000 jobs, with gains in both the durable and
nondurable goods components (+14,000 and +9,000, respectively). Employment in
wholesale trade is 192,000 lower than in February 2020.

Employment in mining rose by 10,000 in June, reflecting a gain in support 
activities for mining. Mining employment is down by 110,000 since a peak in January
2019.

Employment in manufacturing changed little in June (+15,000). Within the industry,
job gains in furniture and related products (+9,000), fabricated metal products
(+6,000), and primary metals (+3,000) were partially offset by a loss in motor
vehicles and parts (-12,000). Employment in manufacturing is down by 481,000 from
its level in February 2020.

Employment in transportation and warehousing was little changed in June (+11,000).
Employment gains in warehousing and storage (+14,000), air transportation (+8,000),
and truck transportation (+6,000) were partially offset by a loss in couriers and
messengers (-24,000). Since February 2020, employment in transportation and 
warehousing is down by 94,000.

Construction employment changed little in June (-7,000). Over-the-month job losses
in nonresidential specialty trade contractors (-15,000) and heavy and civil 
engineering construction (-11,000) were partially offset by a gain in residential
specialty trade contractors (+13,000). Employment in construction is 238,000 lower
than in February 2020.

In June, employment showed little change in other major industries, including 
information, financial activities, and health care.

Average hourly earnings for all employees on private nonfarm payrolls rose by 10
cents to $30.40 in June, following increases in May and April (+13 cents and +20
cents, respectively). Average hourly earnings of private-sector production and 
nonsupervisory employees rose by 10 cents to $25.68 in June. The data for recent
months suggest that the rising demand for labor associated with the recovery from
the pandemic may have put upward pressure on wages. However, because average hourly
earnings vary widely across industries, the large employment fluctuations since
February 2020 complicate the analysis of recent trends in average hourly earnings.
(See tables B-3 and B-8.)

In June, the average workweek for all employees on private nonfarm payrolls decreased
by 0.1 hour to 34.7 hours. In manufacturing, the average workweek fell by 0.2 hour
to 40.2 hours, and overtime declined by 0.1 hour to 3.2 hours. The average workweek
for production and nonsupervisory employees on private nonfarm payrolls declined by
0.2 hour to 34.1 hours. (See tables B-2 and B-7.)

The change in total nonfarm payroll employment for April was revised down by 9,000,
from +278,000 to +269,000, and the change for May was revised up by 24,000, from
+559,000 to +583,000. With these revisions, employment in April and May combined
is 15,000 higher than previously reported. (Monthly revisions result from additional
reports received from businesses and government agencies since the last published
estimates and from the recalculation of seasonal factors.)

The Employment Situation for July is scheduled to be released on
Friday, August 6, 2021, at 8:30 a.m. (ET).

|                              and Establishment Survey Data				    |
|											    |
| Data collection for both surveys was affected by the pandemic. In the establishment	    |
| survey, more data continued to be collected by web than in months prior to the pandemic.  |
| In the household survey, for the safety of both interviewers and respondents, in-person   |
| interviews were conducted only when telephone interviews could not be done. 		    |
|											    |
| As in previous months, some workers affected by the pandemic who should have been	    |
| classified as unemployed on temporary layoff were instead misclassified as employed but   |
| not at work. However, the share of responses that may have been misclassified was	    |
| highest in the early months of the pandemic and has been considerably lower in recent	    |
| months. Since March 2020, BLS has published an estimate of what the unemployment rate	    |
| might have been had misclassified workers been included among the unemployed. Repeating   |
| this same approach, the seasonally adjusted unemployment rate in June 2021 would have	    |
| been 0.2 percentage point higher than reported. However, this represents the upper bound  |
| of our estimate of misclassification and probably overstates the size of the 		    |
| misclassification error. 								    |

|											    |
| Each year, the establishment survey estimates are benchmarked to comprehensive counts of  |
| employment from the Quarterly Census of Employment and Wages (QCEW) for the month of	    |
| March. These counts are derived from state unemployment insurance (UI) tax records that   |
| nearly all employers are required to file. At 10:00 a.m. (ET) on August 18, 2021, the	    |
| Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) will release the preliminary estimate of the upcoming    |
| annual benchmark revision to the establishment survey data. This is the same day that	    |
| the first-quarter 2021 data from QCEW will be issued. Preliminary benchmark revisions	    |
| for all major industry sectors, as well as total nonfarm and total private employment,    |

Frequently Asked Questions about Employment and Unemployment Estimates

1. Why are there two monthly measures of employment?

   The household survey and establishment survey both produce sample-based estimates
   of employment, and both have strengths and limitations. The establishment survey
   employment series has a smaller margin of error on the measurement of month-to-
   month change than the household survey because of its much larger sample size. An
   over-the-month employment change of about 100,000 is statistically significant in
   the establishment survey, while the threshold for a statistically significant change
   in the household survey is about 500,000. However, the household survey has a more
   expansive scope than the establishment survey because it includes self-employed
   workers whose businesses are unincorporated, unpaid family workers, agricultural
   workers, and private household workers, who are excluded by the establishment survey.
   The household survey also provides estimates of employment for demographic groups.
   For more information on the differences between the two surveys, please visit
   https://www.bls.gov/web/empsit/ces_cps_trends.htm.

2. Are undocumented immigrants counted in the surveys?

   It is likely that both surveys include at least some undocumented immigrants. However,
   neither the establishment nor the household survey is designed to identify the legal
   status of workers. Therefore, it is not possible to determine how many are counted in
   either survey. The establishment survey does not collect data on the legal status of
   workers. The household survey does include questions which identify the foreign and
   native born, but it does not include questions about the legal status of the foreign
   born. Data on the foreign and native born are published each month in table A-7 of
   The Employment Situation news release.

3. Why does the establishment survey have revisions?

   The establishment survey revises published estimates to improve its data series by
   incorporating additional information that was not available at the time of the
   initial publication of the estimates. The establishment survey revises its initial
   monthly estimates twice, in the immediately succeeding 2 months, to incorporate
   additional sample receipts from respondents in the survey and recalculated seasonal
   adjustment factors. For more information on the monthly revisions, please visit
   https://www.bls.gov/ces/cesrevinfo.htm.

   On an annual basis, the establishment survey incorporates a benchmark revision that
   re-anchors estimates to nearly complete employment counts available from unemployment
   insurance tax records. The benchmark helps to control for sampling and modeling errors
   in the estimates. For more information on the annual benchmark revision, please visit
   https://www.bls.gov/web/empsit/cesbmart.htm.

4. Does the establishment survey sample include small firms?

   Yes; about 40 percent of the establishment survey sample is comprised of business
   establishments with fewer than 20 employees. The establishment survey sample is
   designed to maximize the reliability of the statewide total nonfarm employment
   estimate; firms from all states, size classes, and industries are appropriately
   sampled to achieve that goal.

5. Does the establishment survey account for employment from new businesses?

   Yes; monthly establishment survey estimates include an adjustment to account for
   the net employment change generated by business births and deaths. The adjustment
   comes from an econometric model that forecasts the monthly net jobs impact of
   business births and deaths based on the actual past values of the net impact that
   can be observed with a lag from the Quarterly Census of Employment and Wages. The
   establishment survey uses modeling rather than sampling for this purpose because
   the survey is not immediately able to bring new businesses into the sample. There
   is an unavoidable lag between the birth of a new firm and its appearance on the
   sampling frame and availability for selection. BLS adds new businesses to the survey
   twice a year.

6. Is the count of unemployed persons limited to just those people receiving unemployment
   insurance benefits?

   No; the estimate of unemployment is based on a monthly sample survey of households.
   All persons who are without jobs and are actively seeking and available to work are
   included among the unemployed. (People on temporary layoff are included even if
   they do not actively seek work.) There is no requirement or question relating to
   unemployment insurance benefits in the monthly survey.

7. Does the official unemployment rate exclude people who want a job but are not currently
   looking for work?

   Yes; however, there are separate estimates of persons outside the labor force who
   want a job, including those who are not currently looking because they believe no
   jobs are available (discouraged workers). In addition, alternative measures of labor
   underutilization (some of which include discouraged workers and other groups not
   officially counted as unemployed) are published each month in table A-15 of The
   Employment Situation news release. For more information about these alternative
   measures, please visit https://www.bls.gov/cps/lfcharacteristics.htm#altmeasures.

8. How can unusually severe weather affect employment and hours estimates?

   In the establishment survey, the reference period is the pay period that includes
   the 12th of the month. Unusually severe weather is more likely to have an impact on
   average weekly hours than on employment. Average weekly hours are estimated for paid
   time during the pay period, including pay for holidays, sick leave, or other time off.
   The impact of severe weather on hours estimates typically, but not always, results in
   a reduction in average weekly hours. For example, some employees may be off work for
   part of the pay period and not receive pay for the time missed, while some workers,
   such as those dealing with cleanup or repair, may work extra hours.
   
   Typically, it is not possible to precisely quantify the effect of extreme weather on 
   payroll employment estimates. In order for severe weather conditions to reduce
   employment estimates, employees have to be off work without pay for the entire pay
   period. Employees who receive pay for any part of the pay period, even 1 hour, are
   counted in the payroll employment figures. For more information on how often employees
   are paid, please visit https://www.bls.gov/opub/btn/volume-3/how-frequently-do-private-
   businesses-pay-workers.htm.

   In the household survey, the reference period is generally the calendar week that
   includes the 12th of the month. Persons who miss the entire week's work for weather-
   related events are counted as employed whether or not they are paid for the time
   off. The household survey collects data on the number of persons who had a job but
   were not at work due to bad weather. It also provides a measure of the number of
   persons who usually work full time but had reduced hours due to bad weather. 
   Current and historical data are available on the household survey's most requested
   statistics page, please visit https://data.bls.gov/cgi-bin/surveymost?ln.




Technical Note


   This news release presents statistics from two major surveys, the Current
Population Survey (CPS; household survey) and the Current Employment Statistics
survey (CES; establishment survey). The household survey provides information
on the labor force, employment, and unemployment that appears in the "A" tables,
marked HOUSEHOLD DATA. It is a sample survey of about 60,000 eligible households
conducted by the U.S. Census Bureau for the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS).

   The establishment survey provides information on employment, hours, and
earnings of employees on nonfarm payrolls; the data appear in the "B" tables,
marked ESTABLISHMENT DATA. BLS collects these data each month from the payroll
records of a sample of nonagricultural business establishments. Each month
the CES program surveys about 144,000 businesses and government agencies,
representing approximately 697,000 individual worksites, in order to provide
detailed industry data on employment, hours, and earnings of workers on nonfarm
payrolls. The active sample includes approximately one-third of all nonfarm
payroll jobs.

   For both surveys, the data for a given month relate to a particular week or
pay period. In the household survey, the reference period is generally the
calendar week that contains the 12th day of the month. In the establishment
survey, the reference period is the pay period including the 12th, which may or
may not correspond directly to the calendar week.

Coverage, definitions, and differences between surveys

   Household survey. The sample is selected to reflect the entire civilian 
noninstitutional population. Based on responses to a series of questions on 
work and job search activities, each person 16 years and over in a sample
household is classified as employed, unemployed, or not in the labor force.

   People are classified as employed if they did any work at all as paid employees
during the reference week; worked in their own business, profession, or on their
own farm; or worked without pay at least 15 hours in a family business or farm.
People are also counted as employed if they were temporarily absent from their jobs
because of illness, bad weather, vacation, labor-management disputes, or personal
reasons.

   People are classified as unemployed if they meet all of the following criteria:
they had no employment during the reference week; they were available for work at
that time; and they made specific active efforts to find employment sometime during
the 4-week period ending with the reference week. Persons laid off from a job and
expecting recall need not be looking for work to be counted as unemployed. The
unemployment data derived from the household survey in no way depend upon the
eligibility for or receipt of unemployment insurance benefits.

   The civilian labor force is the sum of employed and unemployed persons.
Those persons not classified as employed or unemployed are not in the labor 
force. The unemployment rate is the number unemployed as a percent of the 
labor force. The labor force participation rate is the labor force as a 
percent of the population, and the employment-population ratio is the 
employed as a percent of the population. Additional information about the 
household survey can be found at www.bls.gov/cps/documentation.htm.

   Establishment survey. The sample establishments are drawn from private
nonfarm businesses such as factories, offices, and stores, as well as
from federal, state, and local government entities. Employees on nonfarm
payrolls are those who worked or received pay for any part of the reference pay
period, including persons on paid leave. Persons are counted in each job
they hold. Hours and earnings data are produced for the private sector for
all employees and for production and nonsupervisory employees. Production
and nonsupervisory employees are defined as production and related employees
in manufacturing and mining and logging, construction workers in construction,
and nonsupervisory employees in private service-providing industries.

   Industries are classified on the basis of an establishment's principal
activity in accordance with the 2017 version of the North American Industry
Classification System. Additional information about the establishment survey
can be found at www.bls.gov/ces/.

   Differences in employment estimates. The numerous conceptual and methodological
differences between the household and establishment surveys result in important
distinctions in the employment estimates derived from the surveys. Among these are:

   --The household survey includes agricultural workers, self-employed workers
     whose businesses are unincorporated, unpaid family workers, and private
     household workers among the employed. These groups are excluded from the
     establishment survey.

   --The household survey includes people on unpaid leave among the employed.
     The establishment survey does not.

   --The household survey is limited to workers 16 years of age and older.
     The establishment survey is not limited by age.

   --The household survey has no duplication of individuals, because
     individuals are counted only once, even if they hold more than one
     job. In the establishment survey, employees working at more than one
     job and thus appearing on more than one payroll are counted separately
     for each appearance.

Seasonal adjustment

   Over the course of a year, the size of the nation's labor force and the levels
of employment and unemployment undergo regularly occurring fluctuations. These 
events may result from seasonal changes in weather, major holidays, and the opening
and closing of schools. The effect of such seasonal variation can be very large.

   Because these seasonal events follow a more or less regular pattern each year,
their influence on the level of a series can be tempered by adjusting for regular
seasonal variation. These adjustments make nonseasonal developments, such as
declines in employment or increases in the participation of women in the labor
force, easier to spot. For example, in the household survey, the large number of
youth entering the labor force each June is likely to obscure any other changes
that have taken place relative to May, making it difficult to determine if the 
level of economic activity has risen or declined. Similarly, in the establishment
survey, payroll employment in education declines by about 20 percent at the end
of the spring term and later rises with the start of the fall term, obscuring the
underlying employment trends in the industry. Because seasonal employment changes
at the end and beginning of the school year can be estimated, the statistics can be
adjusted to make underlying employment patterns more discernable.  The seasonally
adjusted figures provide a more useful tool with which to analyze changes in
month-to-month economic activity.

   Many seasonally adjusted series are independently adjusted in both the household
and establishment surveys. However, the adjusted series for many major estimates,
such as total payroll employment, employment in most major sectors, total employment,
and unemployment are computed by aggregating independently adjusted component series.
For example, total unemployment is derived by summing the adjusted series for four
major age-sex components; this differs from the unemployment estimate that would be
obtained by directly adjusting the total or by combining the duration, reasons, or 
more detailed age categories. Percentage distributions of unemployment by reason and
duration are derived from the sum of the independently seasonally adjusted component
series, and will not necessarily match calculations made using the seasonally adjusted
total unemployment level. Additional information about seasonal adjustment in the 
household survey can be found at www.bls.gov/cps/documentation.htm#sa.

   For both the household and establishment surveys, a concurrent seasonal adjustment
methodology is used in which new seasonal factors are calculated each month using all
relevant data, up to and including the data for the current month. In the household
survey, new seasonal factors are used to adjust only the current month's data. In the
establishment survey, however, new seasonal factors are used each month to adjust the
three most recent monthly estimates. The prior 2 months are routinely revised to
incorporate additional sample reports and recalculated seasonal adjustment factors.
In both surveys, 5-year revisions to historical data are made once a year.

Reliability of the estimates

   Statistics based on the household and establishment surveys are subject to both
sampling and nonsampling error. When a sample, rather than the entire population,
is surveyed, there is a chance that the sample estimates may differ from the true
population values they represent. The component of this difference that occurs
because samples differ by chance is known as sampling error, and its variability
is measured by the standard error of the estimate. There is about a 90-percent
chance, or level of confidence, that an estimate based on a sample will differ by
no more than 1.6 standard errors from the true population value because of sampling
error. BLS analyses are generally conducted at the 90-percent level of confidence.

   For example, the confidence interval for the monthly change in total nonfarm
employment from the establishment survey is on the order of plus or minus 110,000.
Suppose the estimate of nonfarm employment increases by 50,000 from one month to
the next. The 90-percent confidence interval on the monthly change would range from
-60,000 to +160,000 (50,000 +/- 110,000). These figures do not mean that the sample
results are off by these magnitudes, but rather that there is about a 90-percent
chance that the true over-the-month change lies within this interval. Since this
range includes values of less than zero, we could not say with confidence that
nonfarm employment had, in fact, increased that month. If, however, the reported
nonfarm employment rise was 250,000, then all of the values within the 90-percent
confidence interval would be greater than zero. In this case, it is likely (at
least a 90-percent chance) that nonfarm employment had, in fact, risen that month.
At an unemployment rate of around 6.0 percent, the 90-percent confidence interval
for the monthly change in unemployment as measured by the household survey is
about +/- 300,000, and for the monthly change in the unemployment rate it is about
+/- 0.2 percentage point.

   In general, estimates involving many individuals or establishments have lower
standard errors (relative to the size of the estimate) than estimates which are based
on a small number of observations. The precision of estimates also is improved when
the data are cumulated over time, such as for quarterly and annual averages.

   The household and establishment surveys are also affected by nonsampling error,
which can occur for many reasons, including the failure to sample a segment of the
population, inability to obtain information for all respondents in the sample,
inability or unwillingness of respondents to provide correct information on a
timely basis, mistakes made by respondents, and errors made in the collection or
processing of the data.

   For example, in the establishment survey, estimates for the most recent 2 months
are based on incomplete returns; for this reason, these estimates are labeled
preliminary in the tables. It is only after two successive revisions to a monthly
estimate, when nearly all sample reports have been received, that the estimate is
considered final.

   Another major source of nonsampling error in the establishment survey is the
inability to capture, on a timely basis, employment generated by new firms. To
correct for this systematic underestimation of employment growth, an estimation
procedure with two components is used to account for business births. The first
component excludes employment losses from business deaths from sample-based
estimation in order to offset the missing employment gains from business births.
This is incorporated into the sample-based estimation procedure by simply not
reflecting sample units going out of business, but imputing to them the same
employment trend as the other firms in the sample. This procedure accounts for
most of the net birth/death employment.

   The second component is an ARIMA time series model designed to estimate the
residual net birth/death employment not accounted for by the imputation. The
historical time series used to create and test the ARIMA model was derived from
the unemployment insurance universe micro-level database, and reflects the actual
residual net of births and deaths over the past 5 years.

   The sample-based estimates from the establishment survey are adjusted once a
year (on a lagged basis) to universe counts of payroll employment obtained from
administrative records of the unemployment insurance program. The difference 
between the March sample-based employment estimates and the March universe counts
is known as a benchmark revision, and serves as a rough proxy for total survey
error. The new benchmarks also incorporate changes in the classification of
industries. Over the past decade, absolute benchmark revisions for total nonfarm
employment have averaged 0.2 percent, with a range from -0.7 percent to 0.3 percent.
