(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. Beginning in 1994, 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 2001 have been revised to reflect the introduction of
Census 2000-based population controls. In addition, data on
"represented by unions" incorporate a minor change to the allocation
procedure for that item. The change in procedure had a neligible
affect on the estimates. Some estimates for 2002 will differ slightly
from those previously published in USDL 03-88, "Union Members in
2002." These differences are due to a change in the way the data were
processed. 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. Detail for the above
race and Hispanic-origin groups will not sum to totals because data for
the "other races" group are not presented and Hispanics are included
in both the white and black population groups.

(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.
NOTE. Data for 2001 have been revised to reflect the introduction of
Census 2000-based population controls. In addition, data on
"represented by unions" incorporate a minor change to the allocation
procedure for that item. The change in procedure had a neligible
affect on the estimates. Some estimates for 2002 will differ slightly
from those previously published in USDL 03-88, "Union Members in
2002." These differences are due to a change in the way the data were
processed. Data refer to the sole or principal job of full-time
workers. Excluded are all self-employed workers regardless of whether
or not their businesses are incorporated.

(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
2002. 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. Detail for the above race and Hispanic-origin groups will not
sum to totals because data for the "other races" group are not
presented and Hispanics are included in both the white and black
population groups.

(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.
