January 2017 -- What is the announced schedule for the BLS to publish industry data according to the NAICS 2017 classification? [Updated June 7, 2017.]

For its various programs, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) is incrementally implementing NAICS 2017 over the course of 2017 to 2019. This is the successor to the 2012 version of the North American Industry Classification System (U.S. variant).

A full schedule, provided by the BLS (citation) is as follows. Programs with anticipated dates marked as "N.A." should not be noticeably affected by NAICS 2017. As initially announced by BLS, dates are approximate; we will amend this table with specific dates when possible.
