Summary
Reports average weekly hours of all employees, by industry. The workweek information relates to the average hours for which pay was received and is different from standard or scheduled hours. Such factors as unpaid absenteeism, labor turnover, part-time work, and stoppages cause average weekly hours to be lower than scheduled hours of work for an establishment. Industry supersector averages further reflect changes in the workweek of component industries. The Current Employment Statistics (CES) program provides estimates of employment, hours, and earnings information on a national basis and in considerable industry detail. The Bureau of Labor Statistics collects payroll data each month from a sample of business and government establishments in all nonfarm activities. The data collection effort is based on approximately 149,000 businesses and government agencies representing approximately 651,000 worksites throughout the United States. CES draws the survey sample from roughly 9.9 million US business establishments covered by the Unemployment Insurance (UI) tax system, representing 97 percent of all employment within the scope of CES in the 50 states, Washington, DC, Puerto Rico, and the US Virgin Islands. Excluded from the CES scope, although they are included in the list of establishments covered by UI taxes, are private households and agricultural businesses. Employment data include series for total employment, number of women employees, and number of production or nonsupervisory employees. Estimates of average hourly earnings, average weekly hours, average weekly earnings, and average weekly overtime hours are produced for both all employees and for production or nonsupervisory employees. Overtime hours are produced for manufacturing industries only. Employment data refer to persons on establishment payrolls who worked or received pay for any part of the pay period that includes the 12th day of the month. The data exclude proprietors, the unincorporated self-employed, unpaid volunteer or family employees, farm employees, and domestic employees. Salaried officers of corporations are included. Government employment covers only civilian employees; military personnel are excluded. Employees of the Central Intelligence Agency, the National Security Agency, the National Imagery and Mapping Agency, and the Defense Intelligence Agency also are excluded. All employment, hours, and earnings series are classified according to the 2017 North American Industry Classification System (NAICS).
