CES Registry Receipts by Release
BLS tracks collection rates for the CES sample on a monthly basis for
each release of estimates. Collection rates are the percent of reports
received for a monthly estimate compared to the total number of
actively-reporting sample units on the sample registry.
For more information on registry receipts, see www.bls.gov/web/empsit/cestn.htm#section6.
