Just in...50-State Employment Statistics

In the Library's reference collection is the Handbook of U.S. Labor Statistics 2005 (Ref. HD8051 B47 2005), a compendium of employment, earnings, prices, productivity, and other labor data, nationally, although it does include a set of tables on Employment, Hours, and Earnings by State. This just in...a special edition of the Handbook, Employment, Hours, and Earnings; States and Areas 2005 (Ref. HD8051 B48 2005), particularly useful because each state has its own chapter with the following information: Employment by industry, Average weekly hours by industry, Average hourly earnings by industry, and Average weekly earnings by industry. Under Hawaii, there are separate statistics for Honolulu.
