Employment Report - Department of Labor; The first Friday of each month, 8:30am EST, covers previous month data. The collection of the data is gathered through a survey among 375,000 business and 60,000 households. The report reviews: the number of new work places created or cancelled in the economy, average wages per hour and the average length of the work week. The report is considered as one of the most important economic publications, both for the fact that it discloses new up-to-date information and due to the fact that, together with NFP, it gives a good picture of the total state of the economy. The report also shows separately the picture in the different sectors (manufacture, service, building, mining, public, etc.)
