union or an employee association similar to a union. 2 Data refer to both union members and workers who report no union affiliation but whose jobs are covered by a union or an employee association contract. 3 Data refer to workers who are neither members of a union nor represented by a union on their job. 4 Data are not shown where base is less than 50,000. 5 Includes other industries, not shown separately. NOTE: Effective with January 2009 data, industries reflect the introduction of the 2007 Census industry classification system into the Current Population Survey. This industry classification system is derived from the 2007 North American Industry Classification System. No historical data have been revised. Data refer to the sole or principal job of full-time wage and salary workers. All self-employed workers are excluded, both those with incorporated businesses as well as those with unincorporated businesses. Updated population controls are introduced annually with the release of January data.
