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. The OEWS program is conducted by
«state_agency» in cooperation with the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, and your participation is essential for developing the
highest quality employment and wage data for the citizens of your state.
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?
There are several ways to provide your data, and 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.
If you are reporting for a school, please see the additional school instructions at www.bls.gov/respondents/oes/
instructions.htm#school.
Online Go to IDCFOEWS.BLS.GOV and log in using your unique IDCF number, <sched_num>. You can fill out our
online form, upload your own file, or download an Excel template to fill out.
Email Send an email with your data and IDCF number to «state_email». An Excel template is available at
www.bls.gov/respondents/oes/template.xlsx. 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.
Phone Call us at «state_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,

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 BLS is committed to the responsible treatment of confidential information and takes
rigorous security measures to protect confidential information in its possession.
Completing the Occupational Employment and Wage Statistics (OEWS) Report Online
You are being asked to report the occupation and wage information about the employees at the location specified
after “Report for” in the mailing address for the pay period that included <refer_date>.
If your establishment has «state_cutoff» or more employees, we recommend uploading a spreadsheet or report from
your payroll system. We prefer Excel files (.xlsx), but can accept almost any file format except executable (.exe) files.
IMPORTANT: To protect your data, your session will time out if you spend 30 minutes on a page. A
warning will appear when five minutes remain. If you do not click “Stay Connected” to extend your
session, your data will be lost and you will have to log in again.
We do not receive your data until you click “Submit Data to BLS” or “Send” at the end of the process.
1. Go to IDCFOEWS.BLS.GOV. Log in with your unique IDCF number, <sched_num>.
2. Follow the instructions to enter your contact information and answer questions about the location specified after
“Report for” in the mailing address. You will be directed to either the data entry page or the file upload page based
on the size of your establishment. Each page has a link you can use to switch to the other submission method if
you would prefer.
3. Enter your occupation and wage data into our online form or select a file to upload.
4. If you entered your data into the online form, you will be able to review your entry and download and save a copy
as an Excel file before submitting it. Click “Submit Data to BLS” to complete the submission. You will receive a
confirmation email. Please save this email in case there are questions about your submission.
If you selected a file to upload, click “Send” to submit it. On the next page, click “Continue” to send yourself a
confirmation email. Please save this email in case there are questions about your submission.
That’s it - you’re done! If you have questions or require assistance, please contact us at «state_email».
Thank you for your time - employers like you are the ONLY source of this information!

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 for hourly wage
rates, and a column for 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.
