Upcoming Changes to the BLS Email Subscription Service

In order to make all  BLS economic news releases available for email subscription, BLS will be upgrading its email subscription service effective July 24, 2011.   Current subscribers’ existing subscriptions will automatically be transferred to the new platform.  Furthermore, all incoming BLS subscription emails will be identified as from the Bureau of Labor Statistics instead of the BLS News Service. To ensure our emails reach your inbox, please add service@public.govdelivery.com to your address book.

Selected data summaries and updates to specific web content will also be available for subscription. Below is a side-by-side comparison between the upgraded and the existing emails:

Notes:

  • Subscription to the Commissioner’s Statement on the Employment Situation will no longer be available as a separate list.  Instead, links to the Commissioner’s Statement will be available on the subscription email for the Employment Situation news release.  

  • Subscribers to the Mass Layoffs news releases will now have an option to subscribe to either or both the monthly and the quarterly releases.

  • BLS will no longer manually insert the reference period (e.g. May 2011) on the email subject line for regional CPI Data Summaries; as a result, delivery of the data to subscribers will be accelerated.
