Summary
This survey provides data on labor force activity for the week prior to the survey. Comprehensive data are available on the employment status, occupation, and industry of persons aged 15 and over. Personal characteristics such as age, sex, race, marital status, veteran status, household relationship, educational background, and Hispanic origin are also provided. Questions unique to the Voter Supplement File pertain to citizenship, voting status, and registration status, and were asked of household members who were United States citizens aged 18 and over. The Veterans Supplement questions were asked of all male and female veterans ages 18 and over. Information is provided on military service, service-related disability, effect of disability on labor force participation, receipt of disability income, and Vietnam theater status. The purpose of the Unemployment Benefit Compensation Supplement was to determine why a growing proportion of the unemployed were not receiving or had not been applying for benefits under the unemployment insurance program. Supplement questions focused on whether respondents had applied for unemployment benefits and whether they had received them since their last job, whether they had received an unemployment check in the week prior to the interview, reasons for not receiving unemployment compensation within the previous week, reasons respondents had not received unemployment compensation since their last job, and reasons for not applying for unemployment compensation.
