Handbook of U.S. Labor Statistics by Bernan Press Pdf
Annotation The Handbook of U.S. Labor Statistics continues and enhances the Bureau of Labor Statistics' (BLS) discontinued publication, Labor Statistics. It brings recent, authoritative data from the BLS and other government and private agencies together into a convenient, single-volume source of labor data. The Handbook provides recent and historical data on U.S. employment, earnings, prices, productivity, living conditions, and related topics. This popular resource also includes data on training, alternative work arrangements, union affiliation, and occupational injuries. New to this edition are two articles, the first describing differences in the characteristics of the various sets of wage data produced by BLS, and the second introducing the new definitions of metropolitan areas promulgated by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB). The first two chapters have been changed as a result of the new industrial and occupational classification systems and benchmarking to 2000 Census population estimates. A wide variety of new, easy-to-use tables present authoritative data on mean hourly earnings and weekly hours by occupation; employment-population ratios for 14 countries; average annual pay and employment for all covered workers by state; NAICS industry average annual pay and employment for all workers in private industry; and more.
