If a worksite has more than 2 pay groups, please call the information number for more information.  Detailed definitions and instructions are provided below.
Your response to this report is kept confidential and is used to generate monthly estimates of employment levels and changes, average hourly earnings, and average weekly hours.  It also contributes to other statistics including state and local unemployment rates, productivity measures, and the gross domestic product (GDP).  Be sure to watch for the release of the national employment situation report on the first Friday of each month.  Your data are included in this important release.
