BLS Cooperative Programs
The Quarterly Census of Employment and Wages (QCEW)
UI quarterly contribution reports  UCFE federal agency employment Supplementary employer surveys by state LMI offices Multiple establishment detail (MWR) Industrial coding (annual refile survey) Follow-ups triggered by edits
Employment benchmarks for all BLS federal/state employer survey programs    CES, OES & OSHA Critical for Bureau of Economic Analysis  Personal income State and national product Local planning Only consistent source of county employment and wages by industry Analysis requiring universe or detailed data
The Current Employment Statistics (CES) Program
Covered employment from QCEW, supplemented with non-covered adjustments, is used to benchmark levels. A monthly employer survey is a major part of the program, using a variety of collection methods.
A primary economic indicator of employment, earnings, and working hours for national, state, and selected areas Total employment growth used by Federal Reserve Incorporated in preliminary estimates of National Product and Income Incorporated into productivity estimates
And now on to The Occupational Employment Statistics (OES) Program
OES:  An employer survey which produces employment and wage-rate estimates by occupation and industry for states and areas BLS and ETA originally shared responsibility with the states. When BLS took total federal responsibility for the program, existing funds were spread over all states.
Data developed with most current 3 years of data Surveys conducted twice annually Employment by occupation tallied for each detailed industry Staffing ratios developed representing each occupations share of industry employment
Data tallied by wage ranges Wage-rate averages generated by weighted interpolations Prior data aged (brought up to date) by other BLS wage survey trends (ECI)
ETA funded but tied to OES Composed of adjusted OES staffing ratios applied to industry employment projections Short-term projections   2 years out Long-term projections:  10 years out Technical assistance available at the following site:  dev.projectionscentral.com
The fourth BLS program is  The LAUS Program Which stands for  Local Area Unemployment Statistics
Less erratic trend than direct CPS monthly state estimates Cheaper than direct CPS estimates Predicts annual averages more accurately than handbook-trended estimates Note: U.S. data comes directly from the CPS, not from a model.
Handbook method - used to allocate labor market areas (LMAs) from state estimates Population-claims method used where possible for estimates of LMA parts Census-share method used for parts of LMAs when claims are not available No statistical measures of precision
Lastly, we come to  The Mass Layoff Statistics (MLS) Program
Began life as PMLPC in 1984 under JTPA Renamed Mass Layoff Statistics in 1989 Intent:  To track serious layoffs and closings by industry Not very useful for Rapid Response Good post-occurrence analytical tool Many states dont have enough activity to publish data
