Statistics from 1957 forward are subject to revision when new benchmarks become available. These series are based upon establishment reports which cover all full- and part-time employees in nonagricultural establishments who worked during, or received pay for, any part of the pay period ending nearest the 15th of the month. Therefore, persons who worked in more than one establishment during the reporting period are counted more than once. Proprietors, selfemployed persons, unpaid family workers, and domestic servants are excluded. 'Preliminary. Data for Federal establishments refer to continental United States; they relate to civilian employees who worked on, or received pay for, the last day of the month. State and local government data exclude, as nominal employees, elected officials of small local units and paid volunteer firemen.
