                        Productivity and Costs
          Fourth Quarter and Annual Averages 2012, Revised
                
Nonfarm business sector labor productivity decreased at a 1.9 percent 
annual rate during the fourth quarter of 2012, the U.S. Bureau of Labor 
Statistics reported today. The decrease in productivity reflects increases 
of 0.5 percent in output and 2.5 percent in hours worked. (All quarterly 
percent changes in this release are seasonally adjusted annual rates.) 
From the fourth quarter of 2011 to the fourth quarter of 2012, 
productivity increased 0.5 percent as output and hours worked increased 
2.5 percent and 1.9 percent, respectively. (See table A.) Annual average 
productivity increased 0.7 percent from 2011 to 2012. (See table C.)

Labor productivity, or output per hour, is calculated by dividing an index 
of real output by an index of hours worked of all persons, including 
employees, proprietors, and unpaid family workers. The measures released 
today were based on more recent source data than were available for the 
preliminary report.

Unit labor costs in nonfarm businesses increased 4.6 percent in the fourth 
quarter of 2012, the combined effect of the 1.9 percent decrease in 
productivity and a 2.6 percent increase in hourly compensation. Unit labor 
costs rose 2.1 percent over the last four quarters. (See table A.) 

BLS defines unit labor costs as the ratio of hourly compensation to labor 
productivity; increases in hourly compensation tend to increase unit labor 
costs and increases in output per hour tend to reduce them.

==============================================================================
Data in this release reflect the annual benchmark revision of BLS Current 
Employment Statistics program data on nonfarm employment and hours, and 
the revised seasonal adjustment of those data. More detail can be found in 
tables 1 through 6 and appendix tables 1 through 6. See Revised measures.
==============================================================================

Manufacturing sector productivity increased 2.1 percent in the fourth 
quarter of 2012, as output increased 2.5 percent and hours increased 0.4 
percent. Productivity increased 2.7 percent in the durable goods sector 
and increased 1.7 percent in the nondurable goods sector. Over the last 
four quarters, manufacturing productivity increased 1.8 percent, as output 
increased 3.3 percent and hours worked rose 1.4 percent. Unit labor costs 
in manufacturing decreased 1.9 percent in the fourth quarter of 2012 and 
increased 2.3 percent from the same quarter a year ago. (See tables A and 
3.) 

The concepts, sources, and methods used for the manufacturing and 
nonfinancial corporate output series differ from those used in the 
business and nonfarm business output series; these output measures are not 
directly comparable. See Technical Notes for a more detailed explanation.

Revised measures

Quarterly and annual measures of hours and related series including 
productivity for all sectors were revised back to 1990 to incorporate 
revised Current Employment Statistics program data published February 1, 
2013.  The data were subject to revision from 2008 forward as a result of 
annual benchmarking of establishment survey data and revised seasonal 
adjustment of those data, and from 1990 to 2008 due to other minor 
revisions. All index measures related to hours show historical revisions 
because the 2005 base year values were revised; resulting revisions to 
percent changes are small. Third quarter, fourth quarter, and annual 
average data for 2012 were also revised for regular updates of source data 
on output and compensation. Revised and previous measures for the third 
and fourth quarters of 2012 are shown in table B for the business, nonfarm 
business, and manufacturing sectors. Revised annual average measures for 
2008 to 2012 are shown in table C for the nonfarm business and 
manufacturing sectors. Revised third quarter measures for the nonfinancial 
corporate sector are shown in table D. Quarterly and annual data for all 
sectors appear in tables 1-6 for 2010 through 2012, and in appendix tables 
1-6 for 2008 and 2009. Full historical annual and quarterly measures can 
be found on the labor productivity and costs home page at 
http://www.bls.gov/lpc/#data. 

In the fourth quarter of 2012, nonfarm business productivity declined 1.9 
percent, as output was revised upward slightly more than hours. Unit labor 
costs rose 4.6 percent, about the same as the preliminary estimate. 
Manufacturing productivity growth was revised upward, to 2.1 percent, 
reflecting an upward revision to output that was larger than an upward 
revision to hours.  Due to both the upward revision to productivity and a 
downward revision to hourly compensation, manufacturing unit labor costs 
fell 1.9 percent, rather than rising 0.4 percent as reported in the 
preliminary release. (See table B.) 

In the third quarter of 2012, nonfarm business productivity growth was 
little changed, at 3.1 percent, reflecting a slight upward revision to 
hours. However, unit labor costs decreased 1.9 percent rather than falling 
2.3 percent as reported February 7, due to an upward revision to hourly 
compensation and the slight downward revision to productivity. In the 
manufacturing sector, productivity was not revised in the third quarter. 
Unit labor costs increased less than previously reported due to a downward 
revision to hourly compensation. (See table B.)

Annual Average productivity growth for 2012 in the nonfarm business sector 
was revised down slightly to 0.7 percent, due to an upward revision to 
hours worked. The 2.2 percent increase in hours was the largest since a 
similar gain in 2006. The upward revision to hours also led to a downward 
revision to compensation per hour.  The increase of 1.4 percent in hourly 
compensation is the smallest in the annual series which begins in 1948 
except for another 1.4 percent increase in 2009. Real hourly compensation, 
which also takes into account changes in consumer prices, decreased 0.6 
percent in 2012 in the nonfarm business sector, the same as the decline in 
2011. Nonfarm business unit labor costs rose 0.7 percent in 2012, as 
previously reported. (See table C.)

Manufacturing sector productivity grew 2.2 percent in 2012, reflecting a 
4.5 percent increase in output combined with a 2.3 percent increase in 
hours. The increase in hours worked was the largest since 1994, and 
follows a 2.1 percent increase in 2011. Unit labor costs were revised 
downward to 0.0 percent in the manufacturing sector.

                        TECHNICAL NOTES
                        
Labor Hours: Hours data for the labor productivity and cost measures 
include hours for all persons working in the sector--wage and salary 
workers, the self-employed and unpaid family workers. The primary source 
of hours and employment data is the BLS Current Employment Statistics 
(CES) program, which provides monthly survey data on the number of jobs 
held by wage and salary workers in nonfarm establishments. The CES also 
provides average weekly paid hours of production and nonsupervisory 
workers in these establishments. Weekly paid hours are adjusted to hours 
at work using data from the National Compensation Survey (NCS). The BLS 
Hours at Work survey, conducted for this purpose, was used for earlier 
years. The Office of Productivity and Technology estimates average weekly 
hours at work for nonproduction and supervisory workers using information 
from the Current Population Survey (CPS), the CES, and the NCS.
     Data from the CPS are used for farm labor, nonfarm proprietors, and 
nonfarm unpaid family workers. Estimates of labor input for government 
enterprises are derived from the CPS, the CES, and the National Income and 
Product Accounts (NIPA) prepared by the Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA) 
of the Department of Commerce.
     The CES measures jobs, counting a person who is employed by two or 
more establishments at each place of employment. In contrast, the CPS 
features measures of employment that count each person only once and 
classify each person according to his or her primary job; hours worked at 
all jobs by that person accrue to his or her primary job. However, the CPS 
also collects more detailed information on employment and hours worked at 
primary jobs and all other jobs, separately. The BLS productivity measures 
use the more detailed information on employment and hours to assign all 
hours worked to the correct industrial sector and avoid duplicating hours 
data from the CES.

Output: Business sector output is a chain-type, current-weighted index 
constructed after excluding from gross domestic product (GDP) the 
following outputs: general government, nonprofit institutions, and private 
households (including owner-occupied housing). Corresponding exclusions 
also are made in labor inputs. Business output accounted for about 75 
percent of the value of GDP in 2011. Nonfarm business, which excludes 
farming, accounted for about 74 percent of GDP in 2011.
     Annual indexes for manufacturing and its durable and nondurable goods 
components are constructed by deflating current-dollar industry value of 
production data from the U.S. Bureau of the Census with deflators from the 
BLS. These deflators are based on data from the BLS producer price program 
and other sources. The industry shipments are aggregated using annual 
weights, and intrasector transactions are removed. Quarterly manufacturing 
output measures are based on the index of industrial production prepared 
monthly by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, adjusted 
to be consistent with annual indexes of manufacturing sector output 
prepared by BLS. Durables include the following 3-digit NAICS industries: 
wood product manufacturing; nonmetallic mineral product manufacturing; 
primary metal manufacturing; fabricated metal product manufacturing; 
machinery manufacturing; computer and electronic product manufacturing; 
electrical equipment and appliance manufacturing; transportation equipment 
manufacturing; furniture and related product manufacturing; and 
miscellaneous manufacturing. Nondurables include: food manufacturing; 
beverage and tobacco product manufacturing; textile mills; textile product 
mills; apparel manufacturing; leather and allied product manufacturing; 
paper manufacturing; printing and related support activities; petroleum 
and coal products manufacturing; chemical manufacturing; and plastics and 
rubber products manufacturing.
     Nonfinancial corporate output is a chain-type, current-weighted index 
calculated on the basis of the costs incurred and the incomes earned from 
production.  The output measure excludes the following outputs from GDP: 
general government; nonprofit institutions; private households; 
unincorporated business; and those corporations classified as offices of 
bank holding companies, offices of other holding companies, or offices in 
the finance and insurance sector. Nonfinancial corporations accounted for 
about 49 percent of the value of GDP in 2011.
     
Productivity: These productivity measures describe the relationship 
between real output and the labor time involved in its production. They 
show the changes from period to period in the amount of goods and services 
produced per hour. Although these measures relate output to hours at work 
of all persons engaged in a sector, they do not measure the specific 
contribution of labor, capital, or any other factor of production. Rather, 
they reflect the joint effects of many influences, including changes in 
technology; capital investment; level of output; utilization of capacity, 
energy, and materials; the organization of production; managerial skill; 
and the characteristics and effort of the work force.

Labor Compensation: The measure includes accrued wages and salaries, 
supplements, employer contributions to employee benefit plans, and taxes. 
Estimates of labor compensation by major sector, required for measures of 
hourly compensation and unit labor costs, are based primarily on employee 
compensation data from the NIPA, prepared by the BEA. The compensation of 
employees in general government, nonprofit institutions and private 
households are subtracted from compensation of domestic employees to 
derive employee compensation for the business sector. The labor 
compensation of proprietors cannot be explicitly identified and must be 
estimated. This is done by assuming that proprietors have the same hourly 
compensation as employees in the same sector. The quarterly labor 
productivity and cost measures do not contain estimates of compensation 
for unpaid family workers.  
      
Unit Labor Costs: The measures of unit labor costs in this release 
describe the relationship between compensation per hour and productivity, 
or real output per hour, and can be used as an indicator of inflationary 
pressure on producers. Increases in hourly compensation increase unit 
labor costs; labor productivity increases offset compensation increases 
and lower unit labor costs. 

Presentation of the data: The quarterly data in this release are presented 
in three ways: as percent changes from the previous quarter presented at a 
compound annual rate, as percent changes from the corresponding quarter of 
the previous year, and as index number series where 2005=100. Annual data 
are presented both as index number series and percent changes from the 
previous year.  
        The index numbers and rates of change reported in the productivity 
and costs news release are rounded to one decimal place. All percent 
changes in this release and on the BLS web site are calculated using index 
numbers to three decimal places. These index numbers are available at the 
BLS web site, www.bls.gov/data/home.htm, or by contacting the BLS Division 
of Major Sector Productivity. (Telephone 202-691-5606 or email

SOURCES: Output data are from the Bureau of Economic Analysis and the 
Census Bureau of the U.S. Department of Commerce; the Bureau of Labor 
Statistics, U.S. Department of Labor; and the Federal Reserve Board. 
Hours and compensation data are from the Bureau of Labor Statistics and 
the Bureau of Economic Analysis.

RELIABILITY: Productivity and cost measures are regularly revised as more 
complete information becomes available.  The measures are first published 
within 40 days of the close of the reference period; revisions appear 30 
days later, and second revisions after an additional 60 days.  In the 
business sector, the third publication (second revision) of a quarterly 
index of output per hour of all persons has differed from the initial 
value by between -1.7 and 1.5 index points approximately 95 percent of 
the time.  This interval is based on the performance of this measure 
between the fourth quarter of 1995 and the third quarter of 2012.


      			Table Footnotes
      
(1) Wages and salaries of employees plus employers' contributions for 
social insurance and private benefit plans. Except for nonfinancial 
corporations, where there are no self-employed, data also include an 
estimate of wages, salaries, and supplemental payments for the self-
employed.

(2) The change for recent quarters is based on the Consumer Price Index 
for all urban consumers (CPI-U). The trend from 1978-2011 is based on
the Consumer Price Index research series (CPI-U-RS).

(3) Unit nonlabor payments include profits, consumption of fixed 
capital, taxes on production and imports less subsidies, net interest and 
miscellaneous payments, business current transfer payments, rental income 
of persons, and the current surplus of government enterprises.

(4) Current dollar output divided by the output index.

(5) Quarterly changes: Percent change compounded at annual rate is 
calculated using index numbers to three decimal places. Indexes 
published in the news release are rounded to one decimal place for 
convenience. Annual changes: Percent change is calculated using annual 
indexes to three decimal places.

(6) Unit nonlabor costs include consumption of fixed capital, taxes on 
production and imports less subsidies, net interest and miscellaneous 
payments, and business current transfer payments.

(7) Total unit costs are the sum of unit labor and nonlabor costs.

(8) Unit profits include corporate profits before tax with inventory 
valuation and capital consumption adjustments.
