Estimates reflect actual (not seasonally adjusted) data. Civilian Labor Force (C.L.F.) includes wage and salary workers, self-employed, unpaid family, domestics in private households, agricultural workers, workers involved in labor disputes and the unemployed, all by place of residence. Employment and Unemployment data are first rounded then added together to derive the rounded CLF total. Because of this rounding technique, this rounded total of the CLF may not agree with a rounding of the CLF total itself. Percent Unemployed is based upon unrounded Labor Force, Employment and Unemployment numbers. Estimates of the TWC are in cooperation with the Bureau of Labor Statistics, U.S. Department of Labor. Beginning with January 2005 estimates, definitions of the MSAs were updated to reflect the 2000 Census-based configurations. Please see for details on these changes. The Dallas-Fort Worth-Arlington MSA is comprised of the Dallas-Plano-Irving Metropolitan Division (MD) and the Fort Worth-Arlington MD. 8

11 S EPTEMBER 2011 T E X A S L A B O R M A R K E T R E V I E W Actual or Not Seasonally Adjusted - This term is used to describe data series not subject to the seasonal adjustment process. In other words, the effects of regular, or seasonal, patterns have not been removed from these series. Civilian Labor Force (CLF) - Is that portion of the population age 16 and older who are employed or unemployed. To be considered unemployed, a person has to be not working but willing and able to work and actively seeking work. Consumer Price Index (CPI) - Is a measure of the average change over time in the prices paid by urban consumers for a market basket of consumer goods and services. The CPI provides a way for consumers to compare what the market basket of goods and services costs this month with what the same market basket cost a month or a year ago. Current Employment Statistics (CES) - A monthly survey of nonfarm business establishments used to collect wage and salary employment, workers hours, and payroll, by industry and area. It is sometimes known as Nonagricultural Employment. Employed (Emp) - Persons 16 years and over in the civilian noninstitutional population who, during the reference week, (a) did any work at all (at least 1 hour) as paid employees, worked in their own business, profession, or on their own farm, or worked 15 hours or more as unpaid workers in an enterprise operated by a member of the family, and (b) all those who were not working but who had jobs or businesses from which they were temporarily absent because of vacation, illness, bad weather, childcare problems, maternity or paternity leave, labor-management dispute, job training, or other family or personal reasons, whether or not they were paid for the time off or were seeking other jobs. Each employed person is counted only once, even if he or she holds more than one job. Local Area Unemployment Statistics (LAUS) - The Federal/State cooperative program which produces employment and unemployment GLOSSARY OF LABOR MARKET TERMS estimates for states and local areas. These estimates are developed by State Employment Security Agencies in accordance with Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) definitions and procedures. Data is used for planning and budgetary purposes as an indication of need for employment and training services programs. Estimates are also used to allocate Federal funds. Metropolitan Division (MD) - A Metropolitan Statistical Area which contains a single core with a population of 2.5 million or more may be subdivided into smaller groupings of counties referred to as Metropolitan Divisions. Titles of Metropolitan Divisions are typically based on principal city names. Texas has two Metropolitan Divisions, the Dallas-Plano-Irving MD and the Fort Worth-Arlington MD, which combine to form the Dallas-Fort Worth- Arlington MSA. Metropolitan Statistical Area (MSA) - A geographic area that contains at least one urbanized area of 50,000 or more population plus adjacent territory that has a high degree of social and economic integration with the core urban area. An MSA in Texas is made up of one or more counties. The U.S. Office of Management and Budget defines metropolitan areas according to published standards that are applied to Census Bureau data. Texas has 25 MSAs and two Metropolitan Divisions (MD). Seasonally Adjusted (SA) - Seasonal adjustment removes the effects of events that follow a more or less regular pattern each year. These adjustments make it easier to observe the cyclical and other non-seasonal movements in a data series. Unemployed (Unemp) - Persons 16 years and over who had no employment during the reference week, were available for work, except for temporary illness, and had made specific efforts to find employment sometime during the 4-week period ending with the reference week. Persons who were waiting to be recalled to a job from which they had been laid off need not have been looking for work to be classified as unemployed. Chase to Add Jobs in Lewisville DALLAS, TX (Dallas Morning News--Brendan Case) New York-based banking giant J.P. Morgan Chase & Co. said it plans to hire 700 employees in mortgage-loan servicing and operations at its Lewisville site. The new jobs which include customer support, business analysis and managerial positions will be concentrated on servicing delinquent loans for customers nationwide. Chase has been beefing up its mortgage operations in North Texas, recently hiring 500 modification underwriting employees in Coppell and 125 records management people in Fort Worth. According to Greg Hassell, a spokesman for Chase, Dallas is a key market for Chase and, in particular, for Chase Home Lending, which has several large employment centers in the area. Chase already has 13,500 employees in the Dallas-Fort Worth area. Outlet Center Project Under Way TEXAS CITY, TX (Galveston Daily News) Construction has begun for Tanger Outlet Center, a $70-million project billed as one of the largest commercial retail developments under way in the state this year. Texas City Mayor Matt Doyle, along with company officials, attended the groundbreaking ceremony for the 350,000-square-foot first phase of the project on 55 acres west of Interstate 45. John R. Klein, president of Simon Premium Outlets, predicted the Texas City mall, which will be branded a Tanger Outlet Center, would generate about $8 million in yearly sales tax revenue, create 400 construction jobs, 900 full- and part-time retail and management positions, and be as successful as the San HAPPENINGS AROUND THE STATE Marcos outlet centers. That location attracts about 10 million visitors a year. Mayor Doyle added, This is what economic development is all about. Marriott Marquis to Open in Austin AUSTIN, TX (Austin Business Journal--Cody Lyon) Marriott Hotels and Resorts will open a 1,003-room Marriott Marquis hotel in downtown Austin in The Austin Marriott Marquis is scheduled to break ground in mid The hotel s construction should generate more than 545 full-time construction jobs, and the hotel will employ 750 when it opens, Marriott said. The hotel, at Congress Avenue and Second Street, will be two blocks from the Austin Convention Center. Plans call for multiple food and beverage venues and 374 underground parking spaces. Investor s Business Daily to Add Jobs PLANO, TX (Plano Star Courier) The Plano City Council has approved an incentive agreement that will add up to 250 jobs in the city. The agreement made with O Neil Digital Solutions includes William O Neil and Company, O Neil Data Systems, and Investor s Business Daily. We believe this is going to be a great expansion for us, said Jim Lucanish, president of O Neil Digital Solutions. For O Neil Digital Solutions, being centrally located in the country is extremely important to all of our health care clients. They like the distribution from the center of the country for the speed they can get their products, he added. In the agreement, O Neil must use Plano hotels or facilities for business activities, if possible, and Investor s Business Daily must place printed in Plano, Texas on the mast head of its newspaper. Most of the jobs will be new positions created within the company. 11
