A.-Employment TABLE A-1. Estimated total labor force classified by employment status and sex Civilian labor force. Unemployment.. Employment. Nonagricultural Worked 15-34 hours.. 5,763 Worked 1-14 hours.. 2,457 24, 781 24,918 24. 773 24,865 24,671 24.993 24, 492 24,052 24, 112 23. 878 23,616 2,322 2,282 1 Estimates are based on information obtained from a sample of households and are subject to sampling variability. Data relate to the calendar week ending nearest the 15th day of the month. The employed total includes all wage and salary workers, self-employed persons, and unpaid workers in family-operated enterprises. Persons in institutions are not included. Because of rounding, sums of individual items do not necessarily equal totals Unemployment as a percent of labor force. Includes persons who had a job or business but who did not work during the survey week because of illness, bad weather, vacation, or labor dispute. Prior to January 1957, also included were persons on layoff with definite instructions to return to work within 30 days of layoff and persons who had new jobs to which they were scheduled to report within 30 days. Most of the persons in these groups have, since that time, been classified as unem. ployed. NOTE: For a description of these series, see Explanatory Notes (in Employ ment and Earnings. U.S. Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics current issues). Figures for periods prior to April 1962 are not strictly comparable with current data because of the introduction of 1960 Census data into the estimation procedure. The change primarily affected the labor force and employment totals, which were reduced by about 200,000. The unemployment totals were virtually unchanged. |
