How does the government measure level of employment?

The Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) does a survey of about 60,000 households that categorizes adults (ages 16 and over) into three categories: Employed, Unemployed, or Not in the Labor Force. To find the level of employment, they use : Employed People / Employed People + Unemployed People Also known as: Employed People / Labor Force Hope this helps.
