Corrections to supplemental data measuring the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on the labor market for May 2020
On September 13, 2024, BLS corrected errors in the supplemental data measuring the effects of COVID-19 pandemic on the labor market for May 2020. These data were collected in supplemental questions added to the Current Population Survey (CPS or household survey) starting in May 2020.
The errors were related to occupational data in tables 2, 7, and 8. Data in these tables for May 2020 were corrected in September 2020, but it was recently discovered that the occupation estimates on tables 2, 7, and 8 for May 2020 were not included in this previous correction.
The changes to these tables are mostly negligible. The difference between the occupation estimates for the version as corrected on September 23, 2020, and the version as corrected on September 13, 2024, can be found in the XLSX tables.
