| * Withheld to avoid disclosing confidential data. Data that are not disclosed for individual industries are always |
| included in the totals. |
| 1 Average annual covered wages are calculated by dividing total annual wages by average employment for the year. |
| Calculations based on unrounded numbers. Data are by location of the employer's establishment and represent |
| wages covered by New Mexico unemployment insurance (UI) law and related statutes. For a complete definition |
| of covered employment see the attached definition sheet. |
| 2 Data by industry from 2001 forward are not generally comparable with industry data for prior years posted elsewhere |
| on this web site. Prior to 2001, industry categories are based on the Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) system. |
| This system was replaced with the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS). The "Grand Total", along |
| with the "State Government" and "Federal Government" sectors are the exceptions. Data for these three categories |
| are comparable from 1990 forward. |
| 3 The unclassified category may include data for other industries that were withheld for reasons of confidentiality. |
