a Based on the number of paid hours.
b The average weekly hours were assumed to be constant for the air transportation industries;
therefore, the output per hour worked and the output per employee measures are identical.
c Full-time and part-time employees are counted equally. Hence, these data do not reflect output
per full-time equivalent employee.
NOTES
Index, 1997 = 100.
BLS developed labor productivity indexes for all manufacturing and retail trade of the North
American Industry Classification System (NAICS) industries as well as selected mining, transportation,
communications and services industries. Indexes for petroleum pipelines and bus (class I) systems were
created under the Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) system but have not yet been developed under
NAICS. Productivity measures for all industries using NAICS start in 1987.
