TECHNICAL NOTE

The Employment Cost Index (ECI) measures the change in the cost of labor, free from the influence 

of employment shifts among occupations and industries. For information on survey concepts, 

coverage, methods, nonresponse adjustment, and imputation, see National Compensation Measures 

Handbook of Methods at www.bls.gov/opub/hom/ncs/home.htm. 

Sample size

Data for this reference period were collected from a probability sample of approximately 28,100 

occupational observations selected from a sample of about 7,000 private industry establishments and 

approximately 7,600 occupational observations selected from a sample of about 1,400 state and local 

government establishments that provided data at the initial interview. Beginning December 2021, an 

additional (fourth) private industry sample is used in estimation to mitigate the impact of decreasing

response rates.

Standard errors

To assist users in ascertaining the reliability of ECI series, standard errors of all current quarter not 

seasonally adjusted 3- and 12-month percent change series are also available, see

www.bls.gov/eci/factsheets/eci-standard-errors.htm and the database query tool at

www.bls.gov/eci/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 ECI data are available in (xlsx) format at www.bls.gov/eci/tables.htm. The continuous 

occupational and industry series listing uses the Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) Manual and

Occupational Classification System (OCS) series from 1975 through 2005 and the North American 

Industry Classification System (NAICS) and Standard Occupational Classification (SOC) 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 (ECEC) news release. The ECEC release dates are available at

www.bls.gov/schedule/news_release/ecec.htm. Historical ECEC data are available in xlsx format at

www.bls.gov/ecec/tables.htm. Since the ECEC is calculated with current employment weights rather

than the fixed weights used in computing the ECI, year-to-year changes in the cost levels usually

differ from those in the ECI. 

Fixed employment weights

For additional information on the use of fixed employment weights in computing the ECI, see 

www.bls.gov/opub/mlr/2016/article/introducing-2012-fixed-employment-weights-for-theemployment-cost-index.htm. Beginning with the December 2022 release, the ECI introduced new

employment weights, see www.bls.gov/eci/notices/2022/eci-2021-fixed-weights-and-2018-socupdate.htm.

Additional information

Historical tables are available in (xlsx) format for constant dollar, current dollar, and continuous series,

see www.bls.gov/eci/tables.htm. ECI release dates are available on the release calendar at

www.bls.gov/schedule/news_release/eci.htm. Subscribe to receive the BLS Economic News Release
