PRODUCTIVITY AND COSTS
Second Quarter 2012, Preliminary
Nonfarm business sector labor productivity increased at a 1.6 percent
annual rate during the second quarter of 2012, the U.S. Bureau of Labor
Statistics reported today. The increase in productivity reflects
increases of 2.0 percent in output and 0.4 percent in hours worked.
(All quarterly percent changes in this release are seasonally adjusted
annual rates.) From the second quarter of 2011 to the second quarter of
2012, productivity increased 1.1 percent as output and hours worked
rose 2.9 percent and 1.8 percent, respectively. (See table A.)
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.
Unit labor costs in nonfarm businesses increased 1.7 percent in the
second quarter of 2012, while hourly compensation increased 3.3
percent. Unit labor costs rose 0.8 percent over the last four quarters.
(See table A.)
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Data in this release reflect the regular multi-year revision to the
National Income and Product Accounts (NIPA) released by the Bureau of
Economic Analysis of the U.S. Department of Commerce on July 27, 2012.
See Revised measures.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
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.
Manufacturing sector productivity rose 0.2 percent in the second
quarter of 2012, as output grew 1.7 percent and hours worked increased
1.4 percent. Over the last four quarters, manufacturing productivity
increased 2.9 percent, as output increased 5.6 percent and hours rose
2.6 percent. Unit labor costs in manufacturing rose 0.3 percent in the
second quarter of 2012 and decreased 2.9 percent from the same quarter
a year ago. (See tables A and 3.)
Revised first-quarter 2012 measures of productivity and costs were
announced for the nonfinancial corporate sector. Productivity
increased 1.2 percent in the first quarter of 2012, as output and
hours rose 4.7 percent and 3.4 percent, respectively. (See tables D
and 6.)
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
Measures of output for the business, nonfarm business, and nonfinancial
corporate (NFC) sectors, and compensation for all sectors incorporate
the revised National Income and Product Accounts (NIPA) data released
on July 27 by the Bureau of Economic Analysis, U.S. Department of
Commerce. As a result, output was revised back to the first quarter of
2009 for the business, nonfarm business, and NFC sectors. Compensation
was subject to revisions back to the first quarter of 2008 for the
business and nonfarm business sectors, and back to the first quarter of
2009 for the manufacturing and NFC sectors. Furthermore, hours were
subject to revisions back to the first quarter of 2008 for the
business, nonfarm business, and NFC sectors, due to revised NIPA data
on compensation of all employees and employment in government
enterprises. Measures of manufacturing output were revised back to 1987
to reflect revised output indexes constructed by BLS using data from
the U.S. Department of Commerce; manufacturing hours were revised back
to the first quarter of 2012.
As a result of the revisions, productivity and related measures were
revised in the business, nonfarm business, and NFC sectors back to the
first quarter of 2008. In the manufacturing sector, productivity and
related measures were subject to revisions back to 1987.
Table B presents previous and revised productivity and related measures
for the nonfarm business, business, and manufacturing sectors for the
first quarter of 2012 and table C presents annual data for nonfarm
business and total manufacturing from 2009 to 2011. Table D presents
revised and previous measures for nonfinancial corporations for the
first quarter of 2012, in addition to annual data from 2009 to 2011.
Revised quarterly and annual series for recent years appear in tables
1-6 and in appendix tables 1-6. Full historical annual and quarterly
measures can be found on the productivity and costs home page
http://www.bls.gov/lpc/#data.
In the first quarter of 2012, nonfarm business productivity declined
0.5 percent, a smaller decline than reported in the preliminary
estimate. The revised figure reflects an upward revision to output and
a slight downward revision to hours. Unit labor costs grew 5.6 percent
in the first quarter, due primarily to a large upward revision to
hourly compensation. In the manufacturing sector, productivity growth
in the first quarter was 5.5 percent, as output growth was revised up
and hours were revised down. Unit labor costs declined 0.4 percent,
rather than decreasing 4.9 percent as previously reported.
For the year 2011, nonfarm business productivity growth was 0.7
percent, an upward revision from the previous estimate of 0.4 percent.
(See table C.) Unit labor costs increased 2.0 percent, a larger
increase than reported June 6. Manufacturing productivity increased at
the same 2.5 percent rate that was reported previously. The 0.1 percent
increase in unit labor costs was more than the 1.0 percent decline
published June 6, due to an upward revision to hourly compensation.
For the year 2010, nonfarm business productivity growth was revised
down to 3.1 percent from the previous estimate of 4.0 percent due to a
downward revision in output. (See table C.) Unit labor costs declined
1.0 percent, a smaller decline than reported June 6. Manufacturing
productivity increased 6.4 percent, slightly less than reported
previously. The 5.0 percent decline in unit labor costs was more than
the 4.7 percent decline published June 6.
For the year 2009, nonfarm business productivity growth was 2.9
percent, as the decline in output was less than previously reported.
(See table C.) Unit labor costs showed a decline of 1.5 percent, after
revision. In manufacturing, productivity grew 0.1 percent, rather than
0.5 percent. Unit labor costs were not revised, increasing 4.0 percent.
Over the most recent ten-year period (2001-2011) nonfarm business
productivity increased at an average annual rate of 2.2 percent.
Manufacturing productivity grew at an annual average rate of 3.3
percent.
In the nonfinancial corporate sector, first-quarter 2012 productivity
growth was 1.2 percent; the preliminary estimate was 0.3 percent. For
the years 2011 and 2010, productivity growth was greater than
previously reported, due to an upward revision in output. (See tables D
and 6.)

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 first 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.
