Beginning1960, inclusion <strong>of</strong> Alaska and Hawaii added about 500,000 to population, about 300,000 to labor force, and about 240,000 tononagricultural employment. Beginning 1962, introduction <strong>of</strong> 1960 census data reduced population by about 50,000 and labor force andemployment by about 200,000. Beginning 1972, introduction <strong>of</strong> 1970 census data added about 800,000 to civilian noninstitutionalpopulation ana about 333,000 to labor force and employment. A subsequent adjustment based on 1970 census in March 1973 added60,000 to labor force and to employment. Beginning 1978, changes in sampling and estimation procedures introduced into <strong>the</strong>household survey added about 250,000 to labor force and to employment. Unemployment levels and rates were not significantlyaffected.Note.—Labor force data in Tables B-29 through B-35 are based on household interviews and relate to <strong>the</strong> calendar week including<strong>the</strong> 12th Of <strong>the</strong> month.
