OHIO LABOR MARKET REVIEW NOVEMBER 217 Technical Notes Except as noted, all data cited are produced by the U.S. Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics, in cooperation with the Ohio Department of Job and Family Services. Civilian Labor Force Estimates (CLFE) Based on the Current Population Survey (household survey) and Local Area Unemployment Statistics (LAUS) program. Civilian Noninstitutional Population Persons 16 years of age and older who are not inmates of institutions (for example, penal and mental facilities, homes for the aged), and who are not on active duty in the armed forces. Civilian Labor Force Persons in the civilian noninstitutional population, employed or unemployed during the reference week (usually the week including the 12 th of the month) distributed by place of residence. Employed Persons in the civilian noninstitutional population who, during the reference week, (a) worked at least one 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. Excluded are persons whose only activity consisted of work around their own house (painting, repairing, or own home housework) or volunteer work for religious, charitable, and other organizations. Unemployed Persons in the civilian noninstitutional population 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 four-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. Data Revisions Figures for the current month are preliminary; revised figures are released when preliminary data for the next month are released. For example, revised March figures are released at the same time as preliminary April figures are released. nonfarm jobs and unemployment claims. Also, during annual processing, new population controls are incorporated into the estimates. Population controls refer to population data such as vital statistics on births, deaths, migration, school enrollment, persons living in group quarters, inmates in institutions, etc. These are updated annually by the Census Bureau and provided to the BLS. Payroll Survey Nonagricultural wage and salary employment, including hours and earnings estimates, are based on monthly reports from the Payroll Survey of employers under the Current Employment Statistics (CES) program. The CES survey is based on approximately 146, businesses and government agencies representing approximately 623, worksites throughout the United States. Industrial Classification Employer establishments are classified by industry based on their principal product or service. The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) is used for industrial classification. (See page 51.) Coverage Monthly reports on employment, payroll, and hours are obtained from approximately 26,5 Ohio employers. Estimating Method Total employment is estimated from the employment of establishments reporting for two consecutive months, as follows: Sample Employment (Current Month) X Total Employment Total Employment = Sample Employment (Previous Month) (Current Month) (Previous Month) Nonagricultural or Payroll Employment The total number of persons on establishment payrolls employed full or part time who received pay for any part of the pay period which includes the 12 th day of the month. Temporary and intermittent employees are included, as are any workers who are on paid leave, or who work during only part of the specified pay period. A striking worker who only works a small portion of the survey period, and is paid, would be included as employed under the CES definitions. Persons on the payroll of more than one establishment are counted in each establishment. Data excludes proprietors, self-employed, unpaid family or volunteer workers, farm workers, and domestic workers. Persons on layoff the entire pay period, on leave without pay, on strike for the entire period or who have not yet reported for work are not counted as employed. Government employment covers only civilian workers. Revisions at the end of the year are called annual processing and typically, adjustments are made to the previous two years for not seasonally adjusted data and five years for seasonally adjusted data. Adjustments are made because more information becomes available throughout the year on 49

OHIO LABOR MARKET REVIEW NOVEMBER 217 Technical Notes Hours and Earnings Average hours are computed by dividing total production employee hours worked during one week (the seven-day period which includes the 12 th of the month) by number of production employees reported for such week. Average hourly earnings are computed by dividing total production employee payroll for one week by total production employee hours for that week. Average weekly earnings are derived by multiplying average hourly earnings by average weekly hours. Production employees include working supervisors and all nonsupervisory employees (including group leaders and trainees) engaged in fabricating, processing, assembling, inspection, receiving, storage, handling, packing, warehousing, shipping, maintenance, repair, janitorial, guard services, product development, auxiliary production for plant s own use (such as power plant), recordkeeping, and other services closely associated with production operations. Nonsupervisory employees include employees such as office and clerical workers, repairers, salespersons, operators, drivers, attendants, service employees, line installers, laborers, accountants, janitors, guards, and other employees whose services are closely associated with those of occupations listed. Payroll refers to dollars paid for full- and part-time production, construction, and nonsupervisory employees who received pay for any part of pay periods that include the 12 th of the month. Payroll is reported before deductions for Social Security, group insurance, withholding tax, bonds, and union dues; also includes pay for overtime, holidays, vacations, and sick leave paid directly by the firm. Bonuses (unless earned and paid regularly each pay period), tips, pay not earned in pay period reported (such as retroactive pay), and value of free rent, fuel, meals, or other payments in kind, excluded. Data Revisions Additional sample receipts are the primary source of the monthly CES employment revisions. CES begins collecting sample reports for a reference month as soon as the reference period, the establishment s pay period that includes the 12th of the month, is complete. Collection time available for first preliminary estimates ranges from two to three weeks, depending on the scheduled date for the Employment Situation news release. Given this short collection cycle for the first preliminary estimates, many establishments are not able to provide their payroll information in time to be included in preliminary estimates. CES sample responses for the reference month continue to be collected, are incorporated into the series, and are released the following month. Benchmarks Sample-based estimates remain final until employment levels are reset to universe employment counts, or benchmarks; the benchmarks are primarily derived from Unemployment Insurance (UI) tax records. The annual benchmarking process results in revised data back to the last annual benchmark for not seasonally adjusted series and back five years for seasonally adjusted series. For the establishment, or CES survey, annual benchmarks are constructed in order to realign the sample-based employment totals of each year with the Unemployment Insurance (UI) based population counts. These population counts are much less timely than sample-based estimates and are used to provide an annual point-in-time census for employment. Hours represent hours worked or paid for, during pay periods which include the 12 th of the month, for production, construction, or nonsupervisory employees. Hours include time paid for holidays and vacations, and for sick leave when pay received directly from firm. Employment Error Measures Error measures for state and area employment estimates are available on the following website: http://www.bls.gov/ sae/79stderr.htm. Seasonal Adjustment 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 nonseasonal movements in a data series. 5
