SAN FRANCISCO AREA JOB COUNT IN OCTOBER 2008 DOWN 20,200 OVER THE YEAR
Total nonfarm employment for the San Francisco-Oakland-Fremont Metropolitan Statistical Area1 stood at 2,029,500 in October 2008, down 20,200, or 1.0 percent, over the year, the Bureau of Labor Statistics of the U.S. Department of Labor reported today. Nationally, nonfarm employment fell 0.8 percent from October 2007 to October 2008. Richard J. Holden, the Bureau's regional commissioner in San Francisco, noted that this was the fifth consecutive month of over-the-year declines in the Bay Area, following 44 consecutive months of over-the-year increases. (See chart A and table 1; Technical Note at end of release contains metropolitan area definitions. All data in this release are not seasonally adjusted; accordingly, over the year analysis is used throughout. Also, data in this release for October 2008 are preliminary.)
Chart A. Total nonfarm employment, over-the-year net change in the San Francisco-Oakland-Fremont metropolitan area and its components, October 2001-October 2008
1The San Francisco-Oakland-Fremont Metropolitan Statistical Area includes Alameda, Contra Costa, Marin, San Francisco, and San Mateo Counties.
The San Francisco metropolitan area is comprised of two metropolitan divisions-separately identifiable employment centers within the larger metropolitan area. The two divisions each accounted for approximately half of the area's workforce in October 2008. While the Oakland-Fremont-Hayward Metropolitan Division lost 22,500 jobs from October a year ago, the San Francisco-San Mateo-Redwood City Metropolitan Division gained 2,300 jobs.
Industry Employment
The trade, transportation, and utilities supersector and the construction supersector experienced the largest employment losses in the metropolitan area, down 7,600 and 5,800 over the year, respectively. The Oakland division was particularly hard hit, accounting for the majority of the job loss in trade, transportation and utilities and all of the job loss in construction. Overall, metropolitan area employment in the trade, transportation, and utilities activities supersector declined 2.1 percent and construction fell 4.8 percent. Nationally, employment in the two supersectors decreased 1.7 and 6.5 percent, respectively. (See table 1 and chart B.)

Locally, employment in financial activities fell by 4,300 since last October, a 2.9-percent decrease. Additionally, government jobs fell by 2,100 or 0.6 percent over the past year. At the national level, financial activities declined more slowly at a 1.6-percent rate, while government added jobs, increasing at a 1.2-percent pace.
The manufacturing and other services supersectors each lost 1,300 jobs locally, contracting 0.9 percent and 1.7 percent, respectively. Nationally, the manufacturing supersector declined 3.8 percent, but other services grew 0.8 percent.

Employment in the 12 Largest Areas
The manufacturing and other services supersectors each lost 1,300 jobs locally, contracting 0.9 percent and 1.7 percent, respectively. Nationally, the manufacturing supersector declined 3.8 percent, but other services grew 0.8 percent.
Those areas with over-the-year job losses were: Detroit-Warren-Livonia (-2.8 percent), Atlanta-Sandy Springs-Marietta (-1.8 percent), Miami-Fort Lauderdale-Pompano Beach (-1.7 percent), San Francisco-Oakland-Fremont (-1.0 percent), Los Angeles-Long Beach-Santa Ana (-0.9 percent), Chicago-Naperville-Joliet (-0.3 percent), and Philadelphia-Camden-Wilmington (-0.2 percent).
Houston-Sugar Land-Baytown registered the fastest rate of gain, up 2.0 percent, followed by Dallas-Fort Worth-Arlington, up 1.7 percent. The other two areas experiencing employment growth during the 12-month period were: Washington-Arlington-Alexandria (1.2 percent) and Boston-Cambridge-Quincy (0.6 percent). New York-Northern New Jersey-Long Island registered no job growth. (See chart C.)
The largest declines in employment occurred in Detroit (-55,700) and Los Angeles (-50,600). Two other areas, Atlanta and Miami, lost more than 40,000 jobs. Houston, the area with the fastest rate of job growth in the nation in October 2008, also added the largest number of jobs over the year, 52,300, followed closely by Dallas with 50,000. Washington was third, adding 35,700 to its count.
Chart C. Over-the-year percent change in employment, United States and 12 largest metropolitan areas, October 2008
This release presents nonfarm payroll employment estimates from the Current Employment Statistics (CES) program. The CES survey is a Federal-State cooperative endeavor in which State workforce agencies prepare the data using concepts, definitions, and technical procedures prescribed by the Bureau of Labor Statistics.
Definitions. Employment data refer to persons on establishment payrolls who receive pay for any part of the pay period which includes the 12th of the month. Persons are counted at their places of work rather than at their place of residence; those appearing on more than one payroll are counted on each payroll. Industries are classified on the basis of their principal activity in accordance with the 2002 version of the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS).
Method of estimation. The employment data are estimated using a weighted "link relative" technique in which a ratio (link relative) of current-month employment to that of the previous month is computed from a sample of establishments reporting for both months. The estimates of employment for the current month are obtained by multiplying the estimates for the previous month by these ratios. Small-domain models are used as the official estimators for approximately 10 percent of CES published series which have insufficient sample for direct sample-based estimates.
Annual revisions. Employment estimates are adjusted annually to a complete count of jobs, called benchmarks, derived principally from tax reports which are submitted by employers who are covered under state unemployment insurance (UI) laws. The benchmark information is used to adjust the monthly estimates between the new benchmark and the preceding one and also to establish the level of employment for the new benchmark month. Thus, the benchmarking process establishes the level of employment, and the sample is used to measure the month-to-month changes in the level for the subsequent months.
Reliability of the Estimates
The estimates presented in this release are based on sample survey data and administrative data and thus are subject to sampling and other types of errors. Sampling error is a measure of sampling variability-variation that occurs by chance because a sample rather than the entire population is surveyed. Survey data are also subject to nonsampling errors, such as those which can be introduced into the data collection and processing operations. Estimates not directly derived from sample surveys are subject to additional errors resulting from the special estimation processes used. The sums of individual items may not always equal the totals shown in the same tables because of rounding.
Employment estimates. Measures of sampling error for state CES data at the supersector level are available on the BLS Web site at www.bls.gov/sae/790stderr.htm. Information on recent benchmark revisions for states is available at www.bls.gov/sae.
Area definitions. The substate area data published in this release reflect the standards and definitions established by the U.S. Office of Management and Budget, dated December 5, 2005. A detailed list of the geographic definitions is available at www.whitehouse.gov/omb/bulletins/fy2008/b08-01.pdf.
