  1 The number of workers represented by the survey are rounded to the nearest 100. Estimates of the number of workers
provide a description of size and composition of the labor force included in the survey. Estimates are not intended,
however, for comparison to other statistical series, for example, to measure employment trends or levels.
  2 The NCS uses the 2000 Standard Occupational Classification coding structure, which defines more than 800 unique
occupations, to match jobs sampled by the survey. Military occupations are excluded from the survey.

NOTE: Dashes indicate that data did not meet publication criteria.
