Includes all full- and part- time wage and salary workers in nonagricultural establishments who received pay for any part of the pay period that includes the 12th of the month. Excludes proprietors, self- employed persons, unpaid family workers, and private household workers. Data from the household survey shown on p. 11 include those workers and also count persons as employed when they are not at work because of industrial disputes, bad weather, etc., even if they are not paid for the time off. In the series shown here, persons who work at more than one job are counted each time they appear on a payroll, in contrast to the series shown on p. 11 where persons are counted only once--as employed, unemployed, or not in the labor force. See Employment and Earnings for details. \2\ Includes natural resources and mining, not shown separately. \3\ Includes wholesale trade, transportation and warehousing, and utilities, not shown separately. Note.--Data classified by industry based on the 2002 North American Industry Classification System (NAICS). For details see Employment and Earnings, June 2003.
