       1 Seasonally adjusted data for these series are provided for the first time
     beginning with March 2009 estimates.
     
     Note: The seasonal factors shown in this table are for seasonal adjustments made
     directly to unadjusted Employment Cost Index series.  Seasonal factors for
     remaining published seasonally adjusted series are not shown in this table because
     the series are seasonally adjusted indirectly; that is, as weighted sums of lower
     level component indexes.  Specifically, all seasonally adjusted compensation
     series and remaining published wages and salaries and benefit cost series are
     derived indirectly.
