   New Jersey Trends In Employment & Wages (Volume I) is an annual publication which reports comprehensive
employment and wage data for those employers covered under the New Jersey unemployment insurance program.  The
publication provides employment and wage data by major industry and industry sector for the state and the counties.

   The 1994 publication follows the format introduced with the 1982 publication. Statewide private sector annual average
employment and wages are presented at the two digit industry level. Data for federal, state and local government appear on
separate tables. 

   Before using this data to make historical comparisons or in time series analysis, the reader should refer to the technical
notes at the end of this publication for appropriate data limitations.  Changes in unemployment insurance coverage make
some data noncomparable over time.
