Statement to Respondents on the Use of Electronic Data Transmission
As a participant in a Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) statistical survey, you should be aware that use of electronic transmittal methods in
reporting data to the BLS involves certain inherent risks to the confidentiality of those data. Further, you should be aware that responsible
electronic transmittal practices employed by the BLS cannot completely eliminate those risks. The Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) is
committed to the responsible treatment of confidential information and takes rigorous security measures to protect confidential information
in its possession.

The Occupational Employment Statistics (OES) program is a joint venture between the State Department of
Commerce and the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS). Approximately X,000 employers are sampled
statewide across all industries every year.
Your company has been selected to represent similar establishments of the same size in State, and your
participation is critical because individual businesses are the only source of these data. Your data will
allow us to help you make informed business decisions by providing information on:
• Current wage rates by occupation
• Wage and industry trends by occupation, geographic area, and industry
• Emerging and declining occupations
