ABJ30 Members and Friends, Following up on our discussions on future surveys and how best to leverage existing surveys like the ATUS - you are welcome to participate in this outreach effort to improve the ATUS - Regards, Kate From: ATUSinfo [mailto:ATUSinfo@BLS.GOV] Sent: Monday, June 13, 2011 9:44 AM To: ATUSinfo Subject: Please help us improve the American Time Use Survey We are contacting you as a current, former, or potential user of products produced by the American Time Use Survey (ATUS), a program conducted by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS). The ATUS provides nationally-representative estimates of how, where, and with whom Americans spend their time, and is the only federal survey providing data on the full range of nonmarket activities, from childcare to volunteering. We are seeking your feedback on how we can improve ATUS products. By completing a brief questionnaire, you will provide valuable information about whether ATUS products are meeting your needs and, if not, how we can improve them. To access the survey, please click on the following link: http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/M2CMHC3. (You can also access the survey from a link on the ATUS home page: http://www.bls.gov/tus.) While your participation is voluntary, it is important to the success of this survey. We estimate it will take approximately 10 minutes to complete. For more information about the ATUS, please visit: http://www.bls.gov/tus. If you have any questions, please contact ATUS staff at ATUSInfo@bls.gov<mailto:ATUSInfo@bls.gov> or (202) 691-6339. Thank you very much for your help in improving the ATUS. ____ NOTE: If you do not wish to receive additional announcements about the American Time Use Survey, please reply to this message with "Remove" in the subject line.
