TABLE OF CONTENTS

PREFACE

This publication is generated from statistics produced by Maryland's ES-202 Program. It provides the reader with a basic industrial profile of Maryland's

economy. The data are generated and published on a quarterly basis with totals for the state as well as each of its political subdivisions. Included are all

workers covered by the Unemployment Insurance (UI) Law of Maryland and the unemployment compensation for federal employees (UCFE) program.

Together these two account for over 91% of all civilian employment. The principle exclusions are cited in Appendix A of this report.

This report uses the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) to code establishments. All future releases will also be based on the NAICS.

Prior to the reports for 2001, the Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) Manual was used for coding purposes. Although some titles remained the same,

the content has changed from one system to the other and the series are not comparable.

For purposes of this report, NAICS sectors have been combined using the BLS standard for sector aggregation. The following page details this

aggregation.

SOURCE OF DATA

Data contained in this report represents all employers covered by the Unemployment Insurance (UI) Law of Maryland as well as federal workers

covered by 5 U.S.C. section 85 (Unemployment Compensation for Federal Employees). The state-insured data are compiled from quarterly

contributions reports submitted by employers subject to the Maryland law. Included are all reports received plus estimates for those known to

be delinquent. Incomplete reports have missing data elements estimated as necessary to provide useful data. Employers known to have more

than one physical location operating in Maryland are requested to "breakdown" the data submitted. A Multiple Worksite Report completed by an

employer allows data to be disaggregated into reporting units. Employment data pertaining to the federal government are obtained from

similarly required reports submitted by the various government installations located in Maryland.

SCOPE OF COVERAGE

An employer is subject to Maryland's Ul Law as soon as one or more workers are employed in the state. The following

types of wage and salary employment are currently exempt from this coverage:

-29-

Railroad workers

Agricultural labor where cash wages are less than $20,000 or fewer than 10 workers are employed during the current or

preceding quarter

Domestic service unless during any quarter of the current or preceding calendar year the employer pays cash wages of at

least $1,000 to individuals performing the employment

Crew members and officers of vessels having a capacity of 10 tons or less

State and local government elected officials

Religious organization workers except where employment is elected to be covered as provided for in the law

Insurance and real estate agents that receive payment solely by commission

In addition to the wage and salaried workers listed above, all self-employed and family workers are not covered by the law.

A more complete definition of covered workers may be obtained by referring to the annotated code of Maryland.

Federal employment represents civilian employees only. A few installations are exempt because of national security.

AVERAGE WEEKLY WAGE PER WORKER - The total wages paid divided by thirteen (number of weeks in a quarter) then divided by the

quarterly average employment. It should be noted that no attempt is made to standardize the workweek. Industries that employ a large

number of part-time workers will normally have a downward bias while those that engage in extensive payment of overtime will normally

have an upward bias.

BALTIMORE MSA - The Baltimore MSA (Metropolitan Statistical Area) consists of Baltimore City and Anne Arundel, Baltimore, Carroll,

Harford, Howard and Queen Anne's counties.

EMPLOYMENT - The number of workers earning wages during the pay period including the 12th of the month. Included are those on paid

sick leave, paid holiday, paid vacation, etc. The count excludes those who did not earn wages during the entire pay period because of layoffs,

work stoppages, illness or unpaid vacation. Individuals on more than one payroll are counted each time they are reported. Employment is by

reporting unit and is included in the area in which the unit is located.

INDUSTRY - The type of activity(s) engaged in by an employer are classified according to the North American Industry Classification System

(NAICS). Where more than one activity is involved, the dominant activity is used for classification. When an employer has more than one

reporting unit, each unit is assigned to an industry based on the activity of that specific unit. Included in the Unclassified category are those

units for which no industry can be assigned.

MARYLAND PORTION D.C. MSA - The Maryland portion of the Washington, D.C. MSA (Metropolitan Statistical Area) consists of Calvert,

Charles, Frederick, Montgomery, and Prince George's counties.

NONDISTRIBUTABLE - This is the area designation for reporting units that cannot be assigned to one specific area. This includes sales and

other personnel with no permanent place of work or established place of business in the state.

EMPLOYER/REPORTING UNIT - An employer is the legal entity subject to the Unemployment Insurance law. In most cases the employer is equivalent to the establishment or reporting unit, while in some cases the employer will include several establishments or reporting units. A reporting unit is the economic unit for which data is submitted by an employer. Reporting units are, for the most part, individual establishments. An establishment is generally defined as a single physical location where primarily one type of economic activity is conducted. An employer may have more than one reporting unit; however, most employers operate only one place of business and therefore have only one reporting unit. In Maryland, approximately 1,900 employers have more than one reporting unit and account for approximately 17,700 of the total number of units.

APPENDIX B

EXPLANATION OF TERMS

-30-

QUARTERLY AVERAGE EMPLOYMENT - The result of summing the employment reported in each of the three months of the quarter and

then dividing by three.

TOTAL WAGES - The sum of all compensation for services. This includes bonuses, commissions, tips and the cash value of all compensation in any medium other than cash such as the value of meals and lodging.

SIZE CLASS - Each reporting unit is assigned to a category based on the employment reported for the third month of the quarter. Because of

employment fluctuations within the quarter, the average employment per reporting unit may fall outside the indicated size class. For

example, size zero shows employment for the first two months of the quarter and will result in an average quarterly employment figure

greater than zero. Employment of zero is often reported one or more months for employers entering or leaving the market place as well as

those that operate seasonally.

APPENDIX C

LIMITATIONS

Although this data represents the largest universe of employment and wage information regularly available, there are some limitations

associated with the use of the data presented in this report. The user should be aware of the following in making use of the data presented

here:

-31-

Employers may change the way they report if they have more than one establishment. Employers may begin to

report by more than one reporting unit or may elect to revert back to reporting only one unit.

Industry and area designations are updated once a year as necessary when additional information warrants a change.

This occurs in the first quarter report and thus data from previous reports may not always be comparable.

Total wages are based on when the wages were paid and not when they were earned. Bonuses and different pay

periods may cause the figures to fluctuate from quarter to quarter.

Data reported by employers are edited and corrected, however not all reporting errors are able to be discerned.

All data represents the best available estimates at the time the report was prepared. Once the data are prepared,

they are not revised based on later information.

Terms used in this report have specific meanings and may not be the same as in other publications even though

the terms appear to be the same.*
