Instructions for Reporting by Occupation
 Report employees in the occupations in which they are working, not in occupations for which they have been trained.
For example: An employee trained as an engineer, but working as a drafter, should be reported as a drafter.
 Report each employee only once in the occupation that requires the highest level of skill if the employee
performs work in two or more occupations. If there is no measurable difference in skill requirements, report
employees in the occupation in which they spend the most time.
 Please provide a description of duties along with the job titles to help us determine where to place employees.
Do not report job titles alone.
 Report apprentices and trainees in the job for which they are being trained. Report helpers separately because
they are not in training for the occupation they are helping.
 Report part-time workers in the job they perform.
 Professionals who directly supervise other workers in professional occupations should be classified in the same
occupation as the workers they supervise. For example, a drafter that supervises other drafters is classified as a drafter.
 Workers in Service, Sales, Office and Administrative, Forestry and Farming, Production, Maintenance, and
Transportation occupations who spend 80 percent or more of their time performing supervisory duties should be
reported as supervisors. Workers with supervisory duties who spend less than 80 percent of their time supervising
should be reported with the workers they supervise.

Instructions for Reporting Wage Information
For all employees:
 Please use the hourly and annual wage rate categories to report employees. If wages are not recorded
by hour or year (bi-weekly, or monthly for example), convert them into an hourly wage rate.
 For part-time workers, please report the specific hourly wage rate, not an average.
 For tip, commission, and piece-rate workers, please estimate the earnings (base pay plus tips,
commissions, or piece rates), and report the appropriate wage.
 For salaried workers who do not work a standard 2080 hours per year (40 hours per week), please report
wages on an hourly basis. For workers who are paid an annual salary by contract, such as Airline Pilots,
report their annual salary.
