Abstract:
|
The BLS Current Employment Statistics (CES) program recently released experimental estimates of nonfarm payroll employment by firm size. These data offer enhanced opportunities for analyzing and understanding industry employment data. This paper highlights some of these opportunities. Among other things, it explores the size-class breakdown of employment at the NAICS supersector level; it examines patterns of job gain and loss by size class during periods of economic contraction and expansion; and it looks at varying patterns of seasonal hiring among size classes.
