     affiliation but whose jobs are covered by a union or an employee association contract.
       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.  Persons whose ethnicity is identified as Hispanic or Latino may be of any race.  Data refer to the sole or
     principal job of full- time wage and salary workers.  Excluded are all self-employed workers regardless of whether or not their
     businesses are incorporated.  Updated population controls are introduced annually with the release of January data.
