Description: The Current Employment Statistics (CES) program provides current monthly statistics on employment, hours, and earnings, by industry. The estimates produced from the data collected on the BLS-790 forms are fundamental inputs in the economic decision process at all levels of government, private enterprise, and organized labor.
The CES program is currently undergoing a sample redesign to transition from a quota-based to a probability sample. As industries are converted to the probability design, the number of establishments collected for the current design will be reduced.

DOL Clearance Officer.
