Title: Business Sector: Compensation Per Hour Series ID: HCOMPBS Source: U.S. Department of Labor: Bureau of Labor Statistics Release: Productivity and Costs Seasonal Adjustment: Seasonally Adjusted Frequency: Quarterly Units: Index 1992=100
Date Range: 1947-01-01 to 2010-01-01
Last Updated: 2010-05-06 7:46 AM CDT
Notes: The Productivity and Costs release on August 7, 2003,
will reflect the June 2003 benchmark revision to payroll
employment. Since employment is now reported on
a North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) basis,
all of the historical data will be revised.
Changes as a consequence of the move to
NAICS should not be significant since this release
carries data at high levels of aggregation.
