Dear Employer:

The Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) of the U.S. Department of Labor needs your help measuring the number of jobs involved in the production of green goods and services. By completing a brief survey, you will help us determine the number, growth, and distribution of green jobs by industry, occupation, and geography in the United States.

I don’t produce anything green; does this survey apply to me? Yes. We collect data from both green and non-green establishments so we can publish an accurate picture of the economy.

What are green goods and services? They are goods and services that benefit the environment or conserve natural resources. Examples are listed on the following pages.

What if my business has more than one location? Your business may have more than one location, and each location may be involved in a different activity. Please respond for the individual worksite identified in Question 1 of the survey.

What if I want to report using the internet? Please go to the web address https://ggsdata.bls.gov and use your report number to access the data collection form.

Report Number: *[This is your Report Number]*

Please help us better understand our current economy by completing and returning the attached survey within 30 days.

If you have any questions, please contact our helpdesk by calling toll free at 1-866-840-3801 (TTY at 1-866-841-3259), sending an email to [email protected], or visiting our website (www.bls.gov/respondents/ggs).

Thank you for your help.

Sincerely yours,

Richard Clayton

Chief, Division of Administrative Statistics and Labor Turnover
