Understanding how Quarterly Census of Employment and Wages (QCEW) data are used

Subject: Invitation to provide feedback on the Quarterly Census of Employment and Wages (QCEW)

Dear QCEW data user,

The Bureau of Labor Statistics is considering making changes to the way we produce the Quarterly Census of Employment and Wages (QCEW) data to update our confidentiality procedures and improve the utility of the data. We would like to hear from you, as a data user, about how you use QCEW data in order to take your needs into consideration.

In the survey, you will be asked to consider all of the ways that you use QCEW data currently as well as for the ways that you would like to be able to use QCEW data but currently cannot because of restrictions on how the data are published.

Follow this link to start the survey: https://www.research.net/r/P9KW298

We anticipate that it will take approximately 15 minutes to complete this survey. You can leave and return to complete the survey using the same link at any time until the survey field period closes on April 17, 2019. The survey automatically saves your responses each time you click “Next” or submit the survey.

Please take this opportunity to let us know what is important to you! If you have any questions about this survey, please contact me at [email protected].

Thank you,

David Talan

QCEW Program Manager
