Technical information: Employment: (202) 691-6559 USDL 05-1564 http://www.bls.gov/sae/ Unemployment: 691-6392 http://www.bls.gov/lau/ For release: 10:00 A.M. EDT Media contact: 691-5902 Friday, August 19, 2005 REGIONAL AND STATE EMPLOYMENT AND UNEMPLOYMENT: JULY 2005 Regional and state unemployment rates were generally little changed in July. Overall, 32 states registered over-the-month unemployment rate in- creases, 10 states and the District of Columbia had decreases, and 8 states had no change, the Bureau of Labor Statistics of the U.S. Department of Labor reported today. Only two of the increases and four of the decreases exceeded 0.4 percentage point. Over the year, jobless rates were lower in 31 states and the District of Columbia, higher in 16 states, and unchanged in 3 states. In July, the national unemployment rate was unchanged from June at 5.0 percent, but down 0.5 percentage point over the year. Nonfarm payroll employment increased in 34 states over the month, decreased in 14 states and the District of Columbia, and was unchanged in 2 states. Florida experienced the largest employment gain (+42,400), followed by California (+29,900), Georgia (+18,600), Arizona (+14,900), Washington (+12,800), and Texas (+12,600). The largest over-the-month percentage increases in employment were reported in Arizona, Hawaii, Nevada, and Oregon (+0.6 percent each) and in Florida, Georgia, Utah, and Washington (+0.5 percent each). The largest employment decreases occurred in Michigan (-16,600), North Carolina (-7,200), Kansas (-5,000), and Kentucky and South Carolina (-4,500 each). The largest over-the-month percentage losses were reported in Kansas, Michigan, and West Virginia (-0.4 percent each), followed by the District of Columbia, Kentucky, North Carolina, and South Carolina (-0.2 percent each). Regional Unemployment (Seasonally Adjusted) The Northeast and South recorded the lowest unemployment rates in July, 4.9 percent each, while the Midwest again had the highest rate, 5.5 percent. The jobless rate in the West was 5.2 percent. No region reported a stati- stically significant rate change from June. Over the year, all four regions registered significant unemployment rates decreases: the West (-0.6 per- centage point), Northeast (-0.4 point), and Midwest and South (-0.3 point each). (See table 1.) Among the nine geographic divisions, the lowest unemployment rates in July were reported in the West North Central, 4.5 percent, and South Atlantic, 4.6 percent. The highest jobless rates were posted in the East North Central, 5.9 percent, East South Central, 5.4 percent, and Pacific, 5.3 percent. No division registered a statistically significant unemploy- ment rate change from June. The Pacific division experienced the largest rate decline from July 2004 (-0.9 percentage point), followed closely by the West South Central (-0.8 point). Two other divisions also reported significant over-the-year rate decreases--the Middle Atlantic (-0.6 per- centage point) and West North Central (-0.5 point). No division had a jobless rate increase over the year. ------------------------------------------------------------------- | Hurricane Dennis | | | | Hurricane Dennis struck near the beginning of the July | | reference period, affecting parts of Alabama, Florida, and | | Mississippi. BLS examined survey data from the counties in the | | path of the storm to ensure that payroll survey responses were | | at normal levels. Our examination of the survey data suggests | | that there were no discernable weather-related effects on payroll | | employment as measured by the establishment survey. For the | | storm to have affected payroll employment, people would have had | | to have been off work for the entire pay period and not paid for | | the time missed. (In the household survey, people who miss work | | for weather-related events are counted as employed whether or not | | they are paid for the time off.) | ------------------------------------------------------------------- - 2 - State Unemployment (Seasonally Adjusted) In July, Hawaii again reported the lowest state unemployment rate, 2.7 percent. Hawaii has had the lowest or second lowest jobless rate among the states every month since the beginning of 2004. The next lowest rates in July were recorded in North Dakota and Virginia, 3.5 percent each, and Minnesota, New Hampshire, and Vermont, 3.6 percent each. Michigan reported the highest state unemployment rate, 7.0 percent, followed by Alaska and Oregon, 6.6 percent each, and Mississippi, 6.5 percent. The District of Columbia recorded a jobless rate of 6.7 percent. Overall, 16 states had unemployment rates that were significantly below the U.S. rate in July, 8 states and the District of Columbia reported measurably higher rates, and 26 states had rates that were statistically little different from that of the nation. (See tables A and 3.) Six states registered over-the-month jobless rate increases that were statistically significant in July--West Virginia (+0.8 percentage point), Arizona (+0.5 point), North Carolina (+0.4 point), Rhode Island (+0.3 point), and Nebraska and Nevada (+0.2 point each). Three states had sig- nificant unemployment rate decreases from June--Ohio and Tennessee (-0.5 percentage point each) and California (-0.3 point). The District of Columbia also had a measurable over-the-month rate decrease (-0.8 per- centage point). Forty-one states reported unemployment rates in July that were not appreciably different from those of a month earlier. Alabama experienced the largest over-the-year state jobless rate decrease in July (-1.5 percentage points), followed by California and Texas (-1.1 points each) and Minnesota (-1.0 point). Fifteen addition- al states recorded statistically significant unemployment rate declines. The District of Columbia also reported a measurable jobless rate decrease from a year ago (-1.6 percentage points). The largest rate increases from last July were posted by Georgia (+0.7 percentage point), Kentucky (+0.6 point), and Maine and South Dakota (+0.5 point each). Two additional states reported significant over-the-year rate increases. (See table B.) Twenty- five states recorded jobless rates that were not appreciably different from those of July 2004. Nonfarm Payroll Employment (Seasonally Adjusted) Between June and July, the measured changes in employment were statisti- cally significant in 10 states. All registered gains in employment except for Michigan, which reported a loss of 16,600 jobs. States reporting sta- tistically significant over-the-month increases ranged from Florida, with an increase of 42,400 jobs, to Hawaii, with an increase of 3,800 jobs. (See tables C and 5.) Over the year, the measured changes in employment were statistically significant in 29 states and the District of Columbia, with all reporting gains. The largest gains were registered in Florida (+242,700), California (+189,700), Arizona (+101,300), and Texas (+100,000). Four states and the District of Columbia experienced statistically significant employment gains that were less than 15,000; New Mexico (+13,900), the District of Columbia (+11,400), Montana (+8,700), Delaware (+8,500), and Wyoming (+6,600). (See table D.) ______________________________ The Metropolitan Area Employment and Unemployment release for July is scheduled to be issued on August 31. The Regional and State Employment and Unemployment release for August is scheduled to be issued on September 16. - 3 - ------------------------------------------------------------------ | Correction of Nonfarm Payroll Employment Data for South Dakota | | | | The total nonfarm and government employment data for South | | Dakota have been corrected for July 2004. The corrections, | | generally small, were introduced to reflect more accurately the | | employment patterns of teachers in local government education | | during the summer months. The July 2004 data shown in tables 5 | | and 6 of this release incorporate the corrections. | ------------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------------- | Use of Error Measures in the Regional and State News Release | | | | With the release of data for January 2005, the Local Area Un- | | employment Statistics (LAUS) program introduced several improve- | | ments to its methodology. Among these was the development of | | model-based error measures for the monthly estimates and the | | estimates of over-the-month changes. These error measures allow | | data users and the Bureau of Labor Statistics to consider sta- | | tistical significance when analyzing and describing the LAUS | | data. Error measures for the nonfarm payroll employment data had | | been available prior to January 2005, although they were not used | | in the analysis of those data in this release. | | | | The introductory section of this release preserves the long- | | time practice of highlighting the direction of the movements in | | state unemployment rates and state nonfarm payroll employment | | regardless of their statistical significance. The remainder of | | the analysis in the release takes the statistical significance of | | monthly and annual changes into consideration. | ------------------------------------------------------------------- Table A.

Also presented are nonfarm payroll employment estimates by state and major industry from the Current Employment Statistics (CES) program (tables 5 and 6). The LAUS and CES programs are both federal-state cooperative endeavors. Labor force and unemployment--from the LAUS program Definitions. The labor force and unemployment data are based on the same concepts and definitions as those used for the official national estimates obtained from the Current Population Survey (CPS), a sample survey of households that is conducted for the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) by the U.S. Census Bureau. The labor force includes both the employed and the unemployed. Employed persons are those who did any work at all for pay or profit in the reference week (the week including the 12th of the month) or worked 15 hours or more without pay in a family business or farm, plus those not working who have a job from which they were temporarily absent, whether or not paid, for such reasons as labor-management dispute, illness, or vacation. Unemployed persons are those who did not work at all (in the reference week), have actively looked for a job (sometime in the 4-week period ending with the reference week), and are currently available for work; persons on layoff expecting recall need not be looking for work to be counted as unemployed. Method of estimation. Estimates for all census divisions, states, the District of Columbia, the Los Angeles-Long Beach-Glendale metropolitan division, and New York City are produced using estimating equations based on regression techniques. This method, which underwent substantial enhance- ment at the beginning of 2005, utilizes data from several sources, including the CPS, the CES, and state unemployment insurance (UI) data. Estimates for the six other areas contained in this release use a different regression approach. A detailed description of the estimation procedures is available from BLS upon request. Estimates for census regions are obtained by summing the model-based estimates for the component divisions and then calculating the unemployment rate. Annual revisions. Labor force and unemployment data shown for the prior year reflect adjustments made at the end of each year, usually implemented with January estimates. The adjusted estimates reflect updated population data from the U.S. Census Bureau, any revisions in the other data sources, and model reestimation. Seasonal adjustment. Seasonal adjustment of state and substate area model employment and unemployment levels is performed within the modeling procedure. The model estimation is based on the classical approach to seasonal adjustment, in which the series is decomposed into trend, seasonal, irregular, and survey error. This directly yields seasonally adjusted estimates for employment and unemployment levels with reliability measures. Labor force levels and unemploy- ment rates are calculated from these two estimates. Additionally, measures for the State of California are derived by summing the seasonally adjusted es- timates for the Los Angeles-Long Beach-Glendale metropolitan division and the balance of California, and the estimates for the State of New York are the sum of the estimates for New York City and the balance of New York. Labor force estimates for census regions are calculated as the sum of the levels of the component divisions, and the unemployment rate is then calculated. In most years, historical data for the most recent 5 years are revised near the begin- ning of each calendar year, usually coincident with the release of January estimates. Area definitions. The substate area data published in this release reflect the standards and definitions established by the U.S. Office of Management and Budget on February 18, 2004. A detailed list of the geographic definitions is available on the Web at http://www.bls.gov/lau/laumsa.htm and also is published annually in the May issue of Employment and Earnings. - 7 - Employment--from the CES program Definitions. Employment data refer to persons on establishment payrolls who receive pay for any part of the pay period which includes the 12th of the month. Persons are counted at their place of work rather than at their place of residence; those appearing on more than one payroll are counted on each payroll. Industries are classified on the basis of their principal activity in accordance with the 2002 version of the North American Industry Classification System. Method of estimation. The employment data are estimated using a "link relative" technique in which a ratio (link relative) of current-month em- ployment to that of the previous month is computed from a sample of estab- lishments reporting for both months. The estimates of employment for the current month are obtained by multiplying the estimates for the previous month by these ratios. Annual revisions. Employment estimates are adjusted annually to a complete count of jobs, called benchmarks, derived principally from tax reports which are submitted by employers who are covered under state unemployment insurance (UI) laws. The benchmark information is used to adjust the monthly estimates between the new benchmark and the preceding one and also to establish the level of employment for the new benchmark month. Thus, the benchmarking process establishes the level of employment, and the sample is used to measure the month-to-month changes in the level for the subsequent months. Seasonal adjustment. Payroll employment data are seasonally adjusted at the statewide supersector level. In some states, the seasonally adjusted payroll employment total is computed by aggregating the independently ad- justed supersector series. In other states, the seasonally adjusted pay- roll employment total is independently adjusted. Revisions of historical data for the most recent 5 years are made once a year, coincident with annual benchmark adjustments. Caution on aggregating state data. State estimation procedures are designed to produce accurate data for each individual state. BLS inde- pendently develops a national employment series; state estimates are not forced to sum to national totals. Because each state series is subject to larger sampling and nonsampling errors than the national series, summing them cumulates individual state level errors and can cause significant dis- tortions at an aggregate level. Due to these statistical limitations, BLS does not compile a "sum-of-states" employment series, and cautions users that such a series is subject to a relatively large and volatile error structure. - 8 - Reliability of the estimates The estimates presented in this release are based on sample survey, ad- ministrative data, and modeling and, thus, are subject to sampling and other types of errors. Sampling error is a measure of sampling variability--that is, variation that occurs by chance because a sample rather than the entire population is surveyed. Survey data also are subject to nonsampling errors, such as those which can be introduced into the data collection and processing operations. Estimates not directly derived from sample surveys are subject to additional errors resulting from the specific estimation processes used. The sums of individual items may not always equal the totals shown in the same tables because of rounding. With respect to the LAUS program, unem- ployment rates are computed from unrounded data rather than from data that may be displayed in the tables; differences, however, are generally insig- nificant. Labor force and unemployment estimates. Model-based error measures for month change, are available on the BLS Web site at http://www.bls.gov/lau/ lastderr.htm. The average magnitude of the over-the-month change in a state unemployment rate that is required in order to be statistically significant at the 90-percent confidence level is slightly more than +/- 0.3 percentage point. More details can be found on the Web site. Measures of nonsampling error are not available, but additional information on the subject is pro- vided in the BLS monthly periodical, Employment and Earnings. Employment estimates. Measures of sampling error for state CES data at the total nonfarm and supersector level and for metropolitan area CES data at the total nonfarm level are available on the BLS Web site at http://www.bls.gov/ sae/790stderr.htm. BLS uses a 90-percent confidence level in determining whether changes in CES employment levels are statistically significant. In- formation on recent benchmark revisions for states is available on the BLS Web site at http://www.bls.gov/sae/. Additional information More complete information on the technical procedures used to develop these estimates and additional data appear in Employment and Earnings, which is available by subscription from the Superintendent of Documents, U.S. Gov- ernment Printing Office, Washington, DC 20402 (telephone 202-512-1800), and from the BLS Handbook of Methods, Bulletin 2490, August 1997. Estimates of labor force and unemployment, as well as nonfarm employment from the CES program, for over 370 metropolitan areas and metropolitan New England City and Town Areas (NECTAs) are available in the news release, Metropolitan Area Employment and Unemployment. Estimates of labor force, employment, and unemployment for all states, metropolitan areas, labor market areas, counties, cities with a population of 25,000 or more, and other areas used in the administration of various federal economic assistance programs are available on the BLS Web site at http://www.bls. gov/lau/. Employment data from the CES program are available at http: //www.bls.gov/sae/. Information in this release will be made available to sensory impaired individuals upon request.
