Table SA27 -- Full-time and Part-time Wage and Salary Employment by Industry

     Table SA27 presents estimates of wage and salary employment in
Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) two-digit detail. Employment is
measured as the average annual number of jobs, full-time plus part-time;
each wage and salary job that a person holds is counted at full weight.
The estimates are on a place-of-work basis. (For estimates of employment
that include self-employment, see Table SA25.)
     The State estimates of wage and salary employment correspond very
closely to the estimates of wages and salaries presented in Table SA07
     The source data for BEA's wage and salary employment estimates are
mainly from the ES-202 series of the Bureau of Labor Statistics. The
ES-202 series provides monthly employment and quarterly wages for each
State (and county) in SIC four-digit detail.  BEA restricts its
estimates of wage and salary employment to the SIC Division
("one-digit") and two-digit levels and suppresses these estimates in
many individual cases in order to preclude the disclosure of information
about individual employers.
