For information on survey concepts, coverage, methods, nonresponse adjustment, and imputation see National Compensation MeasuresHandbook of Methods www.bls.gov/opub/hom/ncs/home.htm. Sample size Data for this reference period were collected from a probability sample of approximately occupational observations selected from a sample of about 6,200 private industry establishments and approximately 7,800 occupational observations selected from a sample of about 1,400 state and local government establishments that provided data at the initial interview. Standard errors To assist users in ascertainingthe reliability of ECIseries, standard errors of all current quarter not seasonally adjusted 3- and 12-month percent change series are also vailable, seewww.bls.gov/ncs/ect/ectvar.htm and the database query toolwww.bls.gov/ncs/ect/data.htm. Standard errors provide users a measure of the precision of an estimate to ensure that it is within an acceptable range for their intended purpose. Historical listings Historical listings are available at www.bls.gov/ect/#tablesThe continuous occupational and industry series listing uses the Standard Industrial Classification Manual and Occupational ClassificationSystemseries from 1975 through 2005 and the North American Industry Classification System and Standard Occupational Classification from 2006 to the present. It provides the official series deemed continuous after the change in classification systems. For more information on the criteria used in defining continuous series, see the article published in the Monthly Labor Review at www.bls.gov/opub/mlr/2006/04/art2full.pdf Employer Costs for Employee Compensation data The costs per hour worked of compensation components are published as part of the Employer Costs for Employee Compensation news release (ECEC). The ECEC release dates are available atwww.bls.gov/schedule/news_release/ecec.htmHistorical ECEC data are available in summary documents at www.bls.gov/ect/#tablesSince the ECEC is calculated with current employment weights rather than the fixed weights used in computing the ECI, year-year changes in the cost levels usually differ from those in the ECI. Fixed mployment eights For additional information on the use of fixed employment weights in computing the ECI, see www.bls.gov/opub/mlr/2016/article/introducing-2012-fixedemploymentweightsfortheemployment-cost-index.htm.
