1 Employed persons are classified as full- or part-time workers based on their

usual weekly hours at all jobs regardless of the number of hours they are at work

during the reference week. Persons absent from work also are classified

according to their usual status. 2 Includes some persons at work 35 hours or more classified by their reason

for working part time. 3 Beginning in 2003, persons who selected this race group only; persons who

selected more than one race group are not included. Prior to 2003, persons who

reported more than one race group were included in the group they identified as

the main race. For more information, see the "Explanatory Notes and Estimates

of Error" section of this publication.

 NOTE: Estimates for the above race groups (white, black or African American,

and Asian) do not sum to totals because data are not presented for all races. In

addition, persons whose ethnicity is identified as Hispanic or Latino may be of

any race and, therefore, are classified by ethnicity as well as by race. Beginning

in January 2003, data reflect revised population controls used in the household

survey.
