Hispanic or Latino ethnicity
1 Employed persons are classified as full- or part-time workers based on their
usual weekly hours at all jobs regardless of the number of hours they are at work
during the reference week. Persons absent from work also are classified
according to their usual status.
2 Includes some persons at work 35 hours or more classified by their reason
for working part time.
NOTE: Estimates for the above race groups (white, black or African American,
and Asian) do not sum to totals because data are not presented for all races. In
addition, persons whose ethnicity is identified as Hispanic or Latino may be of
any race and, therefore, are classified by ethnicity as well as by race. Beginning
in January 2004, data reflect revised population controls used in the household
survey. Dash indicates no data or data that do not meet publication criteria.

NOTE: The jobseekers total is less than the total unemployed because it
does not include persons on temporary layoff. The percent using each method
will always total more than 100 because many jobseekers use more than one
method. Estimates for the above race groups (white, black or African
American, and Asian) do not sum to totals because data are not presented for
Friends
or
relatives
all races. In addition, persons whose ethnicity is identified as Hispanic or Latino
may be of any race and, therefore, are classified by ethnicity as well as by race.
Beginning in January 2004, data reflect revised population controls used in the
household survey.

Part-time workers ................................................................... 21,809
1 Data refer to members of a labor union or an employee association
similar to a union.
2 Data refer to members of a labor union or an employee association
similar to a union as well as workers who report no union affiliation but whose
jobs are covered by a union or an employee association contract.
3 The distinction between full- and part-time workers is based on hours
usually worked. These data will not sum to totals because full- or part-time
status on the principal job is not identifiable for a small number of multiple
jobholders.
NOTE:
Beginning in January 2004, data reflect revised population
controls used in the household survey. Estimates for the above race groups
(white, black or African American, and Asian) do not sum to totals because
data are not presented for all races. In addition, persons whose ethnicity is
identified as Hispanic or Latino may be of any race and, therefore, are
classified by ethnicity as well as race. Data refer to the sole or principal job of
full- and part-time workers. Excluded are all self-employed workers regardless
of whether or not their businesses are incorporated.

FULL- AND PART-TIME STATUS AND SEX1
1 The distinction between full- and part-time workers is based on hours
usually worked. These data will not sum to totals because full- or part-time
status on the principal job is not identifiable for a small number of multiple
jobholders.
NOTE: The prevailing Federal minimum wage was $5.15 per hour in
2004. Data are for wage and salary workers, excluding the incorporated
self-employed. They refer to a person’s earnings on their sole or principal job,
and pertain only to workers who are paid hourly rates. Salaried workers and
other nonhourly workers are not included. The presence of workers with
hourly earnings below the minimum wage does not necessarily indicate
violations of the Fair Labor Standards Act, as there are exceptions to the
minimum wage provisions of the law. In addition, some survey respondents
might have rounded hourly earnings to the nearest dollar, and, as a result,
reported hourly earnings below the minimum wage even though they earned
the minimum wage or higher. Beginning in January 2004, data reflect revised
population controls used in the household survey.

minimum wage provisions of the law. In addition, some survey respondents
might have rounded hourly earnings to the nearest dollar, and, as a result,
reported hourly earnings below the minimum wage even though they earned
the minimum wage or higher. Beginning in January 2004, data reflect revised
population controls used in the household survey.
NOTE: The prevailing Federal minimum wage was $5.15 per hour in
2004. Data are for wage and salary workers, excluding the incorporated
self-employed. They refer to a person’s earnings on their sole or principal job,
and pertain only to workers who are paid hourly rates. Salaried workers and
other nonhourly workers are not included. The presence of workers with

1 Absences are defined as instances when persons who usually work
35 or more hours a week worked less than 35 hours during the reference
week for one of the following reasons: Own illness, injury, or medical
problems; child-care problems; other family or personal obligations; civic or
military duty; and maternity or paternity leave. Excluded are situations in
which work was missed due to vacation or personal days, holiday, labor
dispute, and other reasons. For multiple jobholders, absence data refer
only to work missed at their main jobs. The absence rate is the ratio of
workers with absences to total full-time wage and salary employment. The
estimates of full-time wage and salary employment shown in this table do
not match those in other tables because the estimates in this table are
based on the full CPS sample and those in the other tables are based on a
quarter of the sample only.
2 Hours absent as a percent of hours usually worked.
NOTE: Beginning in January 2004, data reflect revised population
controls used in the household survey.

problems; child-care problems; other family or personal obligations; civic or
military duty; and maternity or paternity leave. Excluded are situations in
which work was missed due to vacation or personal days, holiday, labor
dispute, and other reasons. For multiple jobholders, absence data refer
only to work missed at their main jobs. The absence rate is the ratio of
workers with absences to total full-time wage and salary employment. The
estimates of full-time wage and salary employment shown in this table do
not match those in other tables because the estimates in this table are
based on the full CPS sample and those in the other tables are based on a
quarter of the sample only.
2 Hours absent as a percent of hours usually worked.
NOTE: Beginning in January 2004, data reflect revised population
