Data tables presented here are based on Census 2000 population controls. Previously published estimates of displaced workers from the February 2000 and January 2002 surveys were based on population controls from the 1990 Census. The estimates from these earlier surveys have been recalculated using the new Census 2000-based population controls. For a discussion of the revised population controls and the impact that their introduction had on the basic CPS data, see "Revisions to the Current Population Survey Effective January 2003" in the February 2003 issue of Employment and Earnings and available at http://stats.bls.gov/cps/rvcps03.pdf on the BLS Web site. Also see "Adjustments to Household Survey Population Estimates in January 2004" in the February 2004 issue of Employment and Earnings and available at http://stats.bls.gov/cps/cps04adj.pdf on the BLS Web site.
