Abstrakt: This section deals with the principal statistical series collected and calculated by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics on labor-related matters. Labor market indicators include employment measures from two major surveys and information on rates of change in compensation provided by the Employment Cost Index (ECI) program. Measures of rates of change of compensation and wages from the ECI program are provided for all civilian nonfarm workers and for all private nonfarm workers. Measures of productivity are provided for major sectors. Differences in concepts and scope, related to the specific purposes of the series, contribute to the variation in changes among the individual measures. A person working at more than one job is counted only in the job at which he or she worked the greatest number of hours. Employment data are obtained from the Current Population Survey, a program of personal interviews conducted monthly by the Bureau of the Census for the Bureau of Labor Statistics. The civilian labor force consists of all employed or unemployed persons in the civilian noninstitutional population. At the beginning of each calendar year, historical seasonally adjusted data usually are revised, and projected seasonal adjustment factors are calculated for use during the January-June period.
