SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
The Current Employment Statistics
(CES) Survey is a Federal/State program
of the Bureau of Labor Statistics. It
produces monthly estimates of
employment, hours, and earnings based
on U.S. nonagricultural establishment
payrolls. Information for these estimates
is derived from 265,000 reports
(representing 135,000 UI accounts and
350,000 individual worksites), as of
December 2004. Each month, these
firms report their employment, payroll,
and hours on forms identified as BLS–
790. All of these reports are collected
under a probability based sample
design.
The CES Supplemental Form on
Temporary Help, Leased, and Other
Contracted Work will focus on the use
of temporary help, leased employees,
and other contracted workers in all nonfarm industries. Use of these types of
employees are an important leading
indicator of trends in the U.S. labor
market and a better understanding of
hiring patterns will help quantify gains
and losses in payroll employment. Data
will be collected for the reference period
of April 12, 2006, and will include the
