What is the reference period?
A. The reference period is the pay period that includes the 12th day of the month. This is the standard measurement period used for all Federal agencies collecting employment data. The length of the pay period does not matter, as long as the 12th of the month is included in the pay period. For establishments with a Monday-through-Friday pay period, if the 12th of the month falls on a Saturday, it should be taken as the last day of the requested pay period, and if the 12th of the month falls on a Sunday, it should be taken as the first day of the requested pay period.
