Dear Employer:

The Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) of the U.S. Department of Labor is conducting a study to verify your business’s classification in the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS).

What are we asking you to do? Please help us ensure that our statistical information is accurate by completing and returning the attached form by December January xx27, 20145. The form should take less than fifteen minutes to complete.

What is NAICS? NAICS is used to collect, analyze, and publish statistical data related to the economy. NAICS classifies businesses based on their primary activities, and allows for a high level of comparability in business statistics among the U.S., Canada, and Mexico.

What if I have a question? If you have any questions, please contact us at: [email protected]

Your information will be kept confidential. Please see the back of this letter for the relevant legal assurances.

Please make and keep a copy of your completed form. This will help in case we have any questions about your form.
