ComparabilityLabor definitions vary by survey and agency: Do not mix levels across definitions; compare rates or changes only after matching population, adjustment, and frequency.Seasonal-adjustment status needs attention: Prefer same-adjustment comparisons, or transform to year-over-year changes before cross-series comparison.Provider comparability note: Check provider dimensions, units, and methodological notes before using this series as a model input.
