To cite the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics report from February 2012 in APA style, follow the format below:
U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. (2012, February). Title of the report (Report No. XXXX). Retrieved from URL
Here's an explanation of each element:
1. Author: The author in this case is the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, which acts as both the individual and corporate author.
2. Date: Use the year of publication, which in this case is 2012. For reports without a specific date, use "n.d." (no date) instead.
3. Title of the report: Provide the title of the specific report you are citing. It should be written in sentence case and italicized.
4. Report number: If the report has a number associated with it, include it in parentheses after the title preceded by "Report No."
5. Retrieval information: If you accessed the report online, include the URL or DOI. If the report is available in print format only, skip this part.
Note: Make sure to use the most recent APA guidelines as formatting rules can change over time.
