1 Includes persons with bachelor’s, master’s, professional, and doctoral
degree.
2 Beginning in 2003, persons who selected this race group only;
persons who selected more than one race group are not included. Prior to
2003, persons who reported more than one race group were included in the
group they identified as the main race. For more information, see the
"Explanatory Notes and Estimates of Error" section of this publication.
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 2003, data reflect revised population
controls used in the household survey.

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.
3 Beginning in 2003, persons who selected this race group only; persons who
selected more than one race group are not included. Prior to 2003, persons who
reported more than one race group were included in the group they identified as
the main race. For more information, see the "Explanatory Notes and Estimates
of Error" section of this publication.
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 2003, data reflect revised population controls used in the household
survey.

Hispanic or Latino ethnicity
1 Beginning in 2003, persons who selected this race group only; persons
who selected more than one race group are not included. Prior to 2003,
persons who reported more than one race group were included in the group
they identified as the main race. For more information, see the "Explanatory
Notes and Estimates of Error" section of this publication.
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. Occupations reflect the introduction of the 2002 Census
occupational classification system derived from the 2000 Standard
Occupational Classification system into the Current Population Survey.
Beginning in January 2003, data reflect revised population controls used in
the household survey.

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.
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. Beginning in January 2003, data reflect revised population
controls used in the household survey. Occupations and industries reflect
the introduction of the 2002 census occupational and industry classification
systems derived from the 2000 Standard Occupational Classification system
and the 2002 North American Industry Classification System into the Current
Population Survey.

who selected more than one race group are not included. Prior to 2003,
persons who reported more than one race group were included in the group
they identified as the main race. For more information, see the "Explanatory
Notes and Estimates of Error" section of this publication.
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. Nonagricultural industries reflect the introduction of the
2002 Census industry classification system derived from the 2002 North
American Industry Classification System into the Current Population Survey.
Beginning in January 2003, data reflect revised population controls used in
the household survey.

who selected more than one race group are not included. Prior to 2003,
persons who reported more than one race group were included in the group
they identified as the main race. For more information, see the "Explanatory
Notes and Estimates of Error" section of this publication.
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
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 2003, data reflect revised population controls
used in the household survey.

Notes and Estimates of Error" section of this publication.
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 2003, data reflect revised population controls used in the
household survey.

Part-time workers ................................................................... 21,513
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 Beginning in 2003, persons who selected this race group only; persons
who selected more than one race group are not included. Prior to 2003,
persons who reported more than one race group were included in the group
they identified as their main race. For more information, see the "Explanatory
Notes and Estimates of Error" section of this publication.
4 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: Data for 2002 have been revised to incorporate changes to the
class of worker status associated with the introduction of the 2002 Census
industry and occupational classification systems into the Current Population
Survey. Beginning in January 2003, 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.

RACE, SEX, AND HISPANIC
OR LATINO ETHNICITY
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 Beginning in 2003, persons who selected this race group only;
persons who selected more than one race group are not included.
Prior to 2003, persons who reported more than one race group were
included in the group they identified as their main race. For more
information, see the "Explanatory Notes and Estimates of Error"
section of this publication.
NOTE: Data for 2002 have been revised to incorporate changes
to the class of worker status associated with the introduction of the
2002 Census industry and occupational classification systems into
the Current Population Survey. Beginning in January 2003, 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.

Survey. Beginning in January 2003, data reflect revised population controls
used in the household survey. Occupations and industries reflect the
introduction of the 2002 Census occupational and industry classification
systems derived from the 2000 Standard Occupational Classification
system and the 2002 North American Industry Classification System into the
Current Population Survey. 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.

1 Beginning in 2003, persons who selected this race group only; persons
who selected more than one race group are not included. Prior to 2003,
persons who reported more than one race group were included in the group
they identified as their main race. For more information, see the "Explanatory
Notes and Estimates of Error" section of this publication.
2 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
2003. 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 2003, data reflect revised
population controls used in the household survey.

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 2003, data reflect revised population
controls used in the household survey.
