2007 Economic Census

What's New for 2007

Nonemployers Included with Employer Data

The Economy-Wide Key Statistics (EWKS) table presents common statistics for every available industry and geographic area published.

In late 2009, 2007 nonemployer establishments and receipt columns were be added to the EWKS table to complement the establishments, receipts/sales, payroll and employment data for businesses with paid employees.

Note: Nonemployers account for less than four percent of all receipts across all industries. They also represent about three-fourths of all businesses. For some industries, nonemployers make up a significant portion of the economic activity.

Note: While employer and nonemployer data items will be separate, it is possible to add them together to get totals using a third-party software application (e.g., spreadsheet program).
