2013 Edition.

A revealing and detailed resource for researchers, labor unions, consultants, government agencies, and policy analysts.

Compiled from the Census Bureau's monthly household survey, the Data Book includes easy-to-read tables, current and historical figures for union membership, as well as earnings for union and nonunion workers. This compilation–not available elsewhere–brings a wide assortment of data into convenient tables.

Information from the data book is regularly included in the Census Bureau's Statistical Abstract of the United States.

Use the Data Book to:

• Research earnings data for a specific occupation by state or metropolitan area
• Analyze weekly earnings by age or race for full-time workers by geographic area

The Data Book comes with the Additional Earnings and Union Membership Data report from Bloomberg BNA, which includes BLS wage survey by occupation; AFL-CIO membership; and additional at-a-glance membership data by industry and state.

This report is available as a standing order. Standing order customers automatically are sent and billed for new editions as they are released.
