This table provides metadata for the actual indicator available from United States statistics closest to the corresponding global SDG indicator. Please note that even when the global SDG indicator is fully available from American statistics, this table should be consulted for information on national methodology and other American-specific metadata information.

Comment and limitations |
The data for management workers for 2000, 2008, and 2009 were converted to the 2010 Census occupation code list to make them comparable across time. The Census Bureau occupation code list follows the structure of the Standard Occupation Classification (SOC) system and is updated periodically. The SOC is expected to be revised again in 2018. |
Method of computation |
Data are based on a sample and are subject to sampling variability. The degree of uncertainty for an estimate arising from sampling variability is represented through the use of a margin of error. The margin of error for the data provided is +/-.2 (this is the 90 percent margin of error). The margin of error can be interpreted roughly as providing a 90 percent probability that the interval defined by the estimate minus the margin of error and the estimate plus the margin of error (the lower and upper confidence bounds) contains the true value. In addition to sampling variability, the ACS estimates are subject to nonsampling error. The effect of nonsampling error is not represented in these data. Occupation codes are 4-digit codes and are based on Standard Occupational Classification 2010. |
