It’s common in scientific/stats publishing to have the headline state the avg/median, the main text plot the errors, and the supplementary give the explicit numbers. They have a big page about std errors.

The main text doesn't plot the error bars, and the full data tables in their release don't have error bars either.

You have to really dig into their website to find their std errors.

bls.gov/ces is the main page for this survey and has a plot.

The error updates annually. Their handbook has a Reliability section where they detail sampling/nonsampling error.
