Editors' Note

Household survey data are adjusted to independent color-sex-age population estimates derived fromthe Census of Population. 1970 Census results were introduced into the estimation procedures in Janu-ary 1972, but a subsequent adjustment, primarily affecting whites and Negro and other races groups,was introduced into the survey in March 1973. As a result the white labor force and employmentlevels were lowered by about 150,000, while Negro levels were raised by 210,000. Consequently,the overall labor force and employment showed a net increase of about 60,000. Comparisonswith data prior to March 1973 (in the A tables) should take these adjustments into account.

Employment and Unemployment Developments,March 1973

Employment rose sharply in March, and unemploy-ment remained essentially unchanged, the U.S. Depart-ment of Labor's Bureau of Labor Statistics announcedtoday. The overall jobless rate was 5.0 percent, notmaterially different from 5.1 percent in February; ithas stayed within the narrow range of 5.0-5.2 percentsince November, substantially below the 5.9-percentrate of March a year ago.

The total number of persons employed (as measuredthrough the household survey) rose by 700,000 over themonth to 83.9 million, seasonally adjusted. The increasewas greater for teenagers and adult men than for adultwomen. Over the year, employment has grown by 2.6million persons.

The number of nonagricultural payroll jobs (measuredthrough the establishment survey) rose 190,000 to 74.9million in March, after registering a stronger advance inFebruary. Payroll employment was up 2.8 million overthe year.

Unemployment

The number of persons unemployed declined about inline with usual February-to-March movements, and, afterseasonal adjustment, remained at 4.4 million, roughlythe same as the levels that have prevailed since lastNovember. Since March a year ago, unemployment hasdeclined by 700,000.

Although the overall rate of joblessness in March wasstatistically unchanged at 5.0 percent, there was a dropamong teenagers, whose rate fell from 15.8 to 14.2 per-cent. However, unemployment was unchanged amongthe larger labor force groups—adult men and women—and their jobless rates held at 3.4 and 4.9 percent,respectively.

Unemployment rates for most of the other majorlabor force groups also showed little or no change froma month ago: household heads (3.0 percent), whiteworkers (4.4 percent), Negro workers (9.0 percent),married men (2.5 percent), full-time workers (4.5 per-cent), and part-time workers (7.5 percent). Moreover,the jobless situation was virtually unchanged amongthe major occupational and industry groups.

For workers covered by State unemployment in-surance programs, the jobless rate edged up from 2.8to 2.9 percent in March but was substantially belowthe year-ago rate of 3.7 percent.

Civilian labor force and total employment1

The number of persons in the civilian labor forcerose much more than it usually does in March. Afterseasonal adjustment, the labor force was up by 640,000,bringing it to a level of 88.3 million. About 30 percentof this increase occurred among part-time workers, whoaccount for 15 percent of the labor force.

Total employment increased sharply for the secondstraight month, advancing by 700,000 from February.Teenagers accounted for over 300,000 of this gain. Overthe past year, employment has risen by 2.6 millionpersons; adult men made up about 1.1 million of thisadvance, with adult women and teenagers accountingfor 900,000 and 600,000, respectively.

Vietnam Era veterans

The employment situation for Vietnam Era veterans20 to 29 years of age was the same in March as in theprevious few months. Their jobless rate—5.9 percent—was substantially lower than the 8.4 percent rate of ayear earlier. Since September of 1972, the veterans'rate has not differed materially from that of non-veterans. While the unemployment rate for recentlydischarged veterans (20-24 years) has held above thatof their nonveteran counterparts, that for veterans inages 25-29 has been holding below that of their non-veteran peers.

Household survey data are adjusted to independent

color-sex-age population estimates derived from the Census

of Population. 1970 Census results were introduced into the

estimation procedures in January 1972, but a subsequent

adjustment, primarily affecting whites and Negro and other

races groups, was introduced into the survey in March 1973.As a result, the white labor force and employment levels were

lowered by about 150,000, while Negro levels were raised

by 210,000. Consequently, the overall labor force and employ-

ment showed a net increase of about 60,000. Comparisonswith data prior to March 1973 should take these adjustments

into account.

5


The number of Vietnam Era veterans in ages 30 to34 has continued to rise, due to the aging of men dis-charged in earlier years. In March, there were 920,000in the population 30-34 years, 15 percent of the totalVietnam Era veterans. Their unemployment rate was4.0 percent, seasonally adjusted, little different fromthe rate for nonveterans in this age category.

Industry payroll employment

Nonagricultural payroll employment continued torise in March, advancing by 190,000, seasonally adjusted.This increase followed a sharp advance in the previousmonth and brought payroll employment to 74.9 million.Since March 1972, payroll jobs have grown by 2.8million, with the goods- and service-producing industriesaccounting, respectively, for 1.0 and 1.8 million of thegain.

About 45,000, or nearly one-fourth, of the Marchpickup in payroll employment occurred in manufac-turing. Job gains were concentrated in the durable goodssector, particularly in the machinery and electrical equip-ment industries.

In the service-producing sector, the number of jobsrose by 130,000, reflecting a sizeable increase in retailtrade (90,000) and moderate gains in finance, insurance,and real estate (20,000) and State and local government(35,000).

Hours of work

The average workweek for all rank-and-file workerson private nonagricultural payrolls was unchanged inMarch at 37.2 hours, after seasonal adjustment. In manu-facturing, the workweek remained at the February level

of 40.9 hours but was up 0.5 hour over the past year.Overtime in manufacturing was also unchanged—3.9hours—the highest level since October 1966.

Hourly and weekly earnings

Average hourly earnings of production or nonsuper-visory workers on private nonagricultural payrolls edgedup 1 cent in March to $3.79. After seasonal adjustment,hourly earnings increased by 2 cents. Since last March,hourly earnings have risen 21 cents or 5.9 percent.

The small gain in hourly earnings, coupled with arise of 0.2 hour in the workweek (not seasonally ad-justed), resulted in an advance of $1.13 in averageweekly earnings to $140.23. After seasonal adjustment,the increase was smaller—74 cents. Compared withMarch a year ago, average weekly earnings were up$8.13 or 6.2 percent. During the latest 12-month periodfor which the Consumer Price Index is available—February 1972 to February 1973—consumer pricesincreased 3.9 percent.

Hourly earnings index

The Bureau's Hourly Earnings Index, seasonally ad-justed, was 143.0 (1967=100) in March, 0.4 percenthigher than in February, according to preliminary figures.The index was 5.6 percent above March a year ago. Allindustries recorded gains over a year ago, ranging from4.6 percent in services to 8.8 percent in transportationand public utilities. During the 12-month period endingin February, the Hourly Earnings Index in dollars ofconstant purchasing power rose 1.7 percent.

Quarterly Labor Force Developments

The number of persons in the labor market continuedto increase in the first quarter of 1973, posting a gain ofmore than 400,000. This rise was more than matched byan expansion in total employment, so there was a furtherdecline in the jobless rate. Among the persons outsidethe labor force, there was a noticeable decline in thenumber of "discouraged workers"—those who wantwork bat think they cannot find a job.

Civilian labor force

After a temporary halt in growth in the first half of1971, the labor force has been expanding at an averageof more than one-half million workers per quarter. While

stemming in large part from the normal growth of thepopulation of working age, these labor force gains havealso reflected the reduction in the Armed Forces andsubsequent entry of most discharged men into thelabor force. It also results from increases in labor forceparticipation among adult women and teenagers.

In the first quarter of 1973, the civilian labor forceparticipation rate for adult women, which has beenmoving up historically, edged up to 43.8 percent. (Par-ticipation rates are defined as the proportion of agroup's population that is in the labor force.) The ratefor teenagers advanced to 53.2 percent, substantiallyabove the 52.0 percent of a year ago and the 49.1 per-cent mark to which it had dipped in the second quarterof 1971. In contrast, the rate for adult men continued

6


its downward trend in the first quarter, dipping to 81.2percent. For the entire civilian noninstitutional popula-tion 16 years of age and over, the rate of labor force par-ticipation was 60.4 percent in the first quarter, aboutthe same as during 1972 but somewhat above the de-pressed levels of 1971. (See table 1.)

Employment and unemployment

Total employment increased by more than 600,000in the first quarter of 1973 to 83.2 million—a levelwhich was equivalent to 57.4 percent of the civiliannoninstitutional population. Most of the rise was ac-acounted for by adult women and teenagers.

The number of jobless persons declined from 4.6to 4.4 million, on a seasonally adjusted basis, in thefirst quarter. The rate of unemployment, at 5.0 percent,was down from 5.3 percent in the previous quarter andwas its lowest level for any quarter since the April-Juneperiod of 1970.

Persons not in the labor force

Among the 57.6 million persons not in the laborforce, the total number reporting some desire to work"now" (although not looking for a job) declined from4.7 to 4.2 million in the first quarter of 1973. Thoughthe great majority of these people were not seeking workbecause of school obligations, ill health, or home re-sponsibilities, there were also about 620,000 persons(seasonally adjusted) who were not looking for a jobbecause they believed they could not find one. Thenumber of such "discouraged workers," which has beenfluctuating roughly in line with the underlying trend inunemployment, was down from about 770,000 in thelast quarter of 1972. (See table 2.)

Negro-white developments

The Negro labor force has been expanding at asomewhat greater pace than the white labor force in

recent quarters, even after eliminating the effect of theadjustments of the population of the two groups appliedin March 1973 (which are described in the note at thebottom of table 1). After allowance for these adjust-ments the Negro labor force has expanded by 260,000or 2.8 percent since the first quarter of 1972, while thenumber of whites in the labor force rose by 1.6 millionor 2.1 percent. There was little difference in the overallrate of labor force participation for the two groups inthe first quarter of 1973; the percentage of the civiliannoninstitutional population in the labor force was60.5 percent for whites and 60.2 percent for Negroes.

Employment of Negroes has risen by 400,000, or4.6 percent, since the first quarter of 1972, while thenumber of whites with jobs has risen by about 2.1million, or 2.8 percent. Despite the relatively morerapid rise in Negro employment, the percentage ofthe population with jobs remained substantially loweramong Negroes than among whites—54.8 percent com-pared with 57.8 percent.

Both races experienced some reduction in the inci-dence of unemployment in the first quarter of 1973.The rate for Negroes dropped from 9.9 to 9.0 percent,while that for whites moved down from 4.7 to 4.5 per-cent. Thus, the ratio of the Negro rate to the white rateremained about 2 to 1. Except for a narrowing duringthe 1969-1971 period of economic slowdown and initialstages of recovery, the Negro-white rate ratio hasgenerally held at 2 to 1 or more since the Korean War.

About 200,000 Negroes were classified as discour-aged workers in the first quarter of 1973. They ac-counted for one-third of the total, compared witha one-fourth average over the past 2 years. Thus,although Negroes make up only a little over one-tenth of the Nation's population and labor force,they account for a fifth of the total jobless and aneven greater proportion of labor force nonpartici-pants not searching for work because of discouragement.

Tables 1 and 2 that follow will be included as a regular part of the quarterly laborforce section, beginning with the July issue.

1/ Because seasonality, by definition, does not exist in population figures, these figures are not seasonally adjusted.2/ Unemployment as a percent of civilian labor force.NOTE: In making quarter-to-quarter comparisons in terms of civilian labor force or employment levels, one should take into account

the effect of 1970 Census population adjustments introduced in the first quarter of 1972 and in the first quarter of 1973. The firstof these adjustments had the effect of increasing the total and white civilian labor force and employment levels for the first quarterof 1972 by about 300,000 (in comparison with prior quarters). The second adjustment had no significant effect on the aggregate laborforce and employment levels shown in this table. It did, however, lower the white labor force and employment levels for the firstquarter of 1973 by about 50,000 and increased civilian labor force and employment levels of Negroes and other races by about 70,000.

NOTE: Figures for periods prior to January 1972 are not strictly comparable with subsequent data because of the introduction of 1970 Census data into the estimation procedures. For example,the civilian labor force and employment totals were increased by more than 300,000 as a result of the census adjustment. For an explanation of the changes and an indication of the differences, see"Revisions in the Current Population Survey" in the February 1973 issue of Employment and Earnings. A subsequent census adjustment, primarily affecting whites and Negro and other races groups,was introduced into the survey in March 1973. As a result, the white labor force and employment levels were lowered by about 150,000, while Negro levels were raised by 210,000. Consequently,the overall labor force and employment showed a net increase of about 60,000. Comparisons with data prior to these two dates should take these adjustments into account.
