The Handbook of U.S. Labor Statistics continues and enhances the Bureau of Labor Statistics' (BLS) discontinued publication, Labor Statistics. It brings recent, authoritative data from the BLS and other government and private agencies together into a convenient, single-volume source of labor data. The Handbook provides recent and historical data on U.S. employment, earnings, prices, productivity, living conditions and related topics. This popular resource also includes data on training, alternative work arrangements, union affiliation, and occupational injuries. New to the ninth edition is information about the BLS Household and Payroll Surveys, including a summary of recent trends.
