Jonathan Krause is an economist in the Office of Employment and Unemployment Statistics, U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics.
The Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) released its annual revisions to the Job Openings and Labor Turnover Survey (JOLTS) estimates on March 9, 2022. This release includes revisions to national and regional estimates of job openings, hires, and separations for a 5-year period. The revised estimates incorporate benchmarks based on Current Employment Statistics (CES) benchmarked employment estimates and revised seasonal adjustment factors, as well as special adjustments for 2020 to incorporate the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic and temporary hiring for the decennial census.

The JOLTS estimates are revised each year to reflect annual updates to the CES employment estimates. Once the CES benchmarked employment estimates are available, the JOLTS employment levels (not published) are ratio-adjusted to the CES employment levels. The resulting ratios are applied to all JOLTS data elements. This annual benchmark process results in revisions to both the not seasonally adjusted and seasonally adjusted estimates for the period since the last benchmark was established.
Seasonal adjustment
Each year, seasonally adjusted estimates are recalculated for the most recent 5 years for each of the JOLTS data elements in order to reflect annual updates to the seasonal adjustment factors. The JOLTS alignment process aligns the JOLTS seasonally adjusted estimates to the CES seasonally adjusted trend. After these estimates are aligned, the process removes the seasonal factors to obtain the not seasonally adjusted series. The seasonal adjustment process is repeated using the aligned not-seasonally-adjusted estimates. Because of this process, the series that are not seasonally adjusted are also recalculated for the most recent 5 years. More information on the JOLTS alignment procedure can be found in the JOLTS Handbook of Methods.
Seasonal adjustment changes due to the COVID-19 pandemic
Selecting outliers, or any data points that fall outside of the normal monthly values, is a standard part of seasonally adjusting any time series. Until the 2021 benchmark, BLS included only point outliers (also known as additive outliers, or AO) in its annual seasonal adjustment processing. Point outliers only affect the month in which they occur and do not have a persistent influence over subsequent months. Using AOs allowed for more control over outliers from the end of the input series in the most recent year of data. However, research into the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on seasonal patterns has resulted in improvements to how BLS will treat outliers in JOLTS seasonal adjustment from January 2022 forward.
With the 2021 benchmark, BLS will allow other types of outliers, known as temporary change (TC) and level shift (LS) outliers, to be included in seasonal adjustment of series to better account for seasonal patterns without removing the effect of the COVID-19 pandemic. Temporary change outliers show a shock to one month of data followed by an effect on subsequent months that diminishes over time. Level shift outliers show a shock that interrupts a normal seasonal pattern that is then continued at the new post-shock level. Any shock at the end of a time series must be an AO because TC and LS outliers can only be identified after enough time has passed to recognize either a diminishing effect (for a TC) or a continuation of seasonal pattern at a new level (for an LS).
A seasonal adjustment run selecting only AOs is run initially. The other two outlier types, in addition to the AO outliers, are automatically chosen by X13-ARIMA-SEATS and used in a second seasonal adjustment run. Both the AO-only and additional outlier runs are manually reviewed by JOLTS analysts for each basic level series, and the seasonally adjusted series with the best fit is chosen.
For technical information on how seasonal adjustment is performed in the JOLTS program, see the Seasonal Adjustment section of the JOLTS Handbook of Methods.
Additional information
See the JOLTS 2020 Benchmark Article for information on additional processes implemented to incorporate the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic and the decennial census.
The BLS public database contains all historical JOLTS estimates that have been revised as a result of the benchmark process. The estimates can be accessed on the JOLTS database page.
