Dear Employer,
About a month ago, we sent you a letter or email requesting your participation in the Occupational Employment and
Wage Statistics (OEWS) program. As of this mailing, we have not received your response, so we are following up with
this form. The OEWS program is conducted by «state_agency» in cooperation with the U.S. Bureau of Labor
Statistics.
What information do I need to provide?
All we need from you is the specific job title, a brief description of duties, and the wage rate for each employee at the
location specified after “Report for” in the mailing address for the pay period that included <refer_date>.
How will my information be used?
The information you provide will be used for statistical purposes only. All identifying information for non-government
establishments will be held in strict confidence to the full extent permitted by law.
How do I provide my information?
We prefer that you report electronically, but there are several options to submit your data. Many payroll systems will
produce an electronic report with the information we need. Please remove personally identifiable information like
employee names and Social Security numbers from your submission.
 Online  Go to IDCFOEWS.BLS.GOV. Log in using your unique IDCF number, <sched_num>.
 Email  Send an email with your data and IDCF number to «state_email». BLS encourages respondents to

encrypt an attachment and send the password in a separate email. Please do not include sensitive information in
the body or text of the email.
 Mail  Fill out page 3 of this booklet and mail your completed form in the enclosed postage-paid envelope.
 Fax  Fill out page 3 of this booklet and fax your completed form to «state_fax».
 Phone  Call us at «state_phone».
Note: If this establishment is closed, please inform us electronically or by phone.
When do I need to provide my information?
Please respond within two weeks. Your timely response will help reduce program costs and save taxpayer money by
eliminating the need for additional mailings and telephone calls to you.
What if I have questions?
If you have any questions or if we can help you submit your data, please call or email us. For more information, visit
www.bls.gov/respondents/oes and «state_site».
Thank you for your time and attention – we appreciate your help.
Sincerely,

Instructions	
 Report employees who worked at or reported to the location specified after “Report for” in the mailing address on page 1
during the pay period that included <refer_date>.
 Report employees who are on paid leave or assigned temporarily to other work locations, including employees who are
working remotely.
 Report paid owners and officers of incorporated firms.

 If you are reporting for a school, please see the additional reporting instructions at
www.bls.gov/respondents/oes/instructions.htm#school.

Reporting	Job	Titles	
 Report employee job titles according to the work they are doing, not their training.
Example: Report an employee working as a drafter, but trained as an engineer, as a drafter.
 Supervisors who spend at least 80 percent of their time supervising other employees should be reported separately from
supervisors or lead workers who spend less than 80 percent of their time supervising others.
Example: Report a head cashier as a supervisor of cashiers if they spend more than 80 percent of their time supervising
other cashiers. Report them as a cashier if they spend less than 80 percent of their time supervising other cashiers.
 Report helpers separately from the employees they are helping.
Example: Report carpenter helpers separately from carpenters.

Reporting	Wage	Rates	
 Report hourly wage rates or annual salaries for full-time employees. Report hourly wage rates for part-time employees. If
wage rates are recorded differently, such as by the month, convert them to an hourly wage rate.
 Report each employee’s actual wage rate. Please do not report an average wage rate for all employees in an occupation.
 For employees who earn tips, commissions, or piece-rate payments, calculate their hourly wage rate or annual salary
including their base pay plus tips, commissions, or piece rates.
 If two or more employees have the same occupation and the exact same wage rate, enter the number of employees in
the “# of employees” column.

Many companies save time by sending us a spreadsheet or
report from their payroll system. All we need is a column with job
titles and a brief description of duties, a column with hourly wage
rates, and a column with annual salaries (for full-time employees
only). A column listing department is optional, but helpful, and
can reduce the need for follow-up phone calls.
