2 H J) Industry Wage Survey: Hospitals and Nursing Homes, September 1978 U.S. Department of Labor Bureau of Labor Statistics November 1980 Bulletin 2069 Industry Wage Survey: Hospitals and Nursing Homes, September 1978 U.S. Department of Labor Ray Marshall, Secretary Bureau of Labor Statistics Janet L. Norwood, Commissioner November 1980 Bulletin 2069 For sale by the Superintendent of Documents, U.S. Government Printing Office Washington, D.C. 20402—Price $6.00 Preface This bulletin summarizes the results of two occupa tional wage surveys in the health care industry con ducted by the Bureau of Labor Statistics in September 1978. Part I covers private and State and local govern ment hospitals in 22 major metropolitan areas. Part II covers private nursing and personal care facilities in 21 of these areas. Federal Government hospitals were not covered by the 1978 survey, but descriptions of the pay systems in hospitals operated by the Veterans Admin istration, Public Health Service, and the Navy are pre sented in appendix A of this report. The Bureau ac knowledges the assistance of these agencies, as well as the Army and the Air Force, in developing appendix A. Separate releases for each of the areas included in the surveys were issued earlier. Copies of these releases are available from the Bureau of Labor Statistics, Wash ington, D.C. 20212, or any of its regional offices. These studies were conducted by the Bureau’s Office of Wages and Industrial Relations. Mark Sieling and Sandra L. King of the Division of Occupational Wage Structures prepared the analysis in this bulletin. Field work for the surveys was directed by the Assistant Re gional Commissioners for Operations. Other reports available from the Bureau’s program of industry wage studies, as well as the addresses of the Bureau’s regional offices, are listed at the end of this bulletin.

Occupational descriptions ............................................................................................. 185 VI Introduction where few pay differences between the two industries were observed for professional or nonprofessional jobs. The pay advantage for hospitals over nursing homes was usually smaller in nursing occupations than in non professional jobs. For head nurses, the typical differen tial was 20 to 35 percent while for general duty and licensed practical nurses, it rarely exceeded 20 percent. (See text table 1.) Despite disparate pay levels, broad earnings ranges for occupations within both industries frequently result ed in some overlap in individual earnings. Both indus tries have series of pay steps to provide the basis for advancement within rate ranges. Pay spreads between key jobs in hospitals common ly differed from those for similar jobs in nursing homes. The pay advantage of general duty nurses over nursing aids, for example, was consistently smaller in hospitals than in nursing homes for the 21 areas permitting com parison. In contrast, general duty nurses typically en joyed a larger pay advantage over licensed practical nurses in hospitals than in nursing homes. (See tabula tion below.) In September 1978, the Bureau of Labor Statistics conducted occupational wage surveys of non-Federal hospitals and private nursing and personal care facili ties in over 20 areas, as part of its regular Industry Wage Survey program.1At that time, private hospitals employed slightly over one-half, and nursing homes about one-fifth, of the 4.9 million workers in private health services (which also includes physicians’ and dentists’ offices, laboratories, and outpatient care facilities). Although hospitals and nursing homes are both high ly labor-intensive,2 their staffing patterns and employee/patient ratios differ markedly. Professional and tech nical workers, for example, make up about two-fifths of the total work force in hospitals compared to onefifth in nursing homes. The employee-to-patient ratio, moreover, is estimated at between 3 and 4 to 1 for hos pitals compared to 1 to 1 for nursing homes. The following paragraphs compare earnings and ben efits for the two industries and elaborate on some sim ilarities and differences in their characteristics that in fluence pay to some degree. Such important factors as the varying effect of third-party (government and in surance carriers) reimbursement for care provided on wage administration and collective bargaining activities of hospitals and nursing homes are outside the scope of this study. More detailed discussions of occupational earnings and supplementary benefits are presented in part I of this bulletin for hospitals and part II for nurs ing homes. Pay advantage of general duty nurses over— M e d ia n S m a lle s t (in p e r c e n t) Nursing aids: H o s p ita ls .................. Nursing homes . . . . Earnings levels of hospital workers are substantially higher than those of nursing home employees, accord ing to the Bureau’s monthly nationwide E m p lo y m e n t a n d E a r n in g s survey covering nonsupervisory workers. In September 1978, gross hourly pay in private hospi tals averaged $5.17—43 percent above the correspond ing average of $3.61 in nursing homes. Part of the dif ferential stems from the greater proportion of skilled workers in hospitals than in nursing homes. A differential remains, however, when pay levels for the same occupation are compared. In four nonprofes sional jobs permitting comparison, private hospital workers typically enjoyed a pay advantage of 30 to 50 percent over nursing homes in about one-half of the areas studied and of 10 to 25 percent in most of the re maining areas.

The difference in worker coverage was often 1See appendix B for scope and method of survey and for definition of terms. “Nursing and personal care facilities” and “nursing homes” are used interchangeably in this report. 2About three-fifths of the total expenditures of each industry are attributable to labor cost.

Differences among ar eas were also evident: seven-tenths of the nursing home professionals in Denver received fewer than 4 paid hol idays, while in San Francisco three-fifths were granted 9 or 10 days annually. However, some nursing homes had more liberal leave provisions than some hospitals. One or more types of health, insurance, and retire ment plans applied to 90 percent or more of the hospi tal workers in almost all areas studied; coverage in nurs ing homes usually fell below 75 percent. Retirement pension plans were available to most of the hospital employees, whereas such coverage, financed at least in part by the employer, typically applied to about onefourth or less of their nursing home counterparts. Hospital employment was concentrated in large fa cilities (typically with at least 1,000 workers). The pro portion of the hospital work force in facilities with at least 1,000 workers ranged from 42 percent in SeattleEverett to 83 percent in Washington among the 22 ar eas compared. Most nursing home workers were in smaller facilities (rarely employing as many as 250 workers and often having fewer than 100 workers). The proportion of the nursing home work force in facilities with fewer than 250 workers ranged from 60-65 percent in New York and Milwaukee to all or virtually all workers in Chi cago, Dallas-Fort Worth, Denver-Boulder, and St. Louis.

A description of the pay systems in Federal hospitals, which employed about 100,000 workers in the 23 areas combined, is included in appendix A. State and local government hospitals employed about one-fifth of the total hospital work force covered by the survey, or about 265,000 work ers. The nursing homes survey excluded all government facilities and any nursing home with fewer than 20 workers, and any nursing home with fewer than 20 workers. 4Standard Metropolitan Statistical Areas as defined by the U.S. Of fice of Management and Budget through February 1974. The hospi tal survey covered 22 areas and the nursing homes study, 21 of the same areas. (See appendix B.) Employment and establishment size The 1,250 hospitals covered by the survey employed approximately 1.2 million workers; 3 the 2,800 nursing and personal care facilities employed about 286,000. Among the metropolitan areas studied,4 hospital em ployment ranged from 199,000 in New York and 128,000 in Los Angeles-Long Beach to 21,000 in Portland. Nurs ing home employment ranged from 45,000 in New York and 36,500 in Los Angeles to about 4,000 in Miami. — 2 Proprietorship and care provided industry’s work force; its corresponding proportion of the hospital work force was just under one-tenth. The share of the work force classified as part-time employees, those regularly scheduled to work fewer hours per week than full-time employees, was slightly higher in nursing homes than in private hospitals (28 and 20 percent, respectively).7 For both industries, the general duty nurse classification had the largest pro portion of part-time workers—29 percent in hospitals and 53 percent in nursing homes. There was, however, considerable variation among the individual areas stud ied. For example, nearly three-fourths of all general duty nurses in Boston nursing homes worked a parttime schedule compared to only one-fourth in Miami. Slightly more than nine-tenths of all private hospital workers in the 22 areas combined were employed by “not-for-profit” institutions. In contrast, only threetenths of the nursing home work force were employed by “not-for-profit” facilities. By area, the highest inci dence of hospital workers in “for-profit” facilities was 37 percent in Houston; worker coverage in nursing homes that were “not-for-profit” was highest (55 per cent) in New York and Milwaukee. Despite these dif ferences, church-related facilities employed about threetenths of private hospital and one-fifth of nursing home workers. Short-term general hospitals,5 providing a variety of hospital services rather than specializing in one partic ular type of care, employed nine-tenths of all private hospital workers. Long-term hospitals were typically run by State governments for the care of patients with mental illnesses. Nursing homes providing continuous health care for their patients, i.e., skilled nursing care facilities, em ployed four-fifths of the professional and nonprofes sional workers covered by that survey. Employment in such institutions ranged from three-tenths of the work force in Dallas-Fort Worth to all or virtually all of the workers in Buffalo, Denver, Miami, New York, Phila delphia, and St. Louis. The remaining nursing homes provided some nursing or health-related personal care, but not continuous skilled nursing service.6 Unionization The proportion of workers covered by collective bar gaining agreements varied widely among areas for non professionals in both industries and for professionals in hospitals. (Outside of the New York area, such cover age applied to only one-fourth 6r less of the profession al workers in nursing homes.) For nonprofessionals, the incidence of unionization was higher in nursing homes than in private hospitals in 10 areas studied and lower in only 7 areas. Coverage for professionals differed for 11 of 21 areas compared—higher for private hospitals in 7 cases and for nursing homes in the other 4 instances. (See text table 2.) It should be noted that most areas are not heavily organized in either industry.8 5Facilities in which patients average a stay of less than 30 days. 6Services provided by these facilities usually include room and board, laundry, and help with correspondence and shopping, as well as assistance in bathing, dressing, eating, walking, and getting out of bed, and the preparation of special diets. Establishments in this cat egory are of two basic types—those admitting a limited number of persons who need skilled nursing care and those maintaining infir maries for patients who become ill and require skilled care. 'The corresponding ratio was lower in government hospitals— 12 percent. 8State and local government hospitals, however, continue to be more unionized than private facilities. A majority of nonprofession als in government hospitals, for example, were covered by labormanagement agreements in 17 of the 22 areas shown in text table 2. As mentioned earlier, government hospitals employed about one-fifth of the hospital workers within the scope of this survey. Staffing Hospital and nursing home occupations cover a wide range of functions and skills; some are unique to med ical facilities while others are commonly found in a va riety of industries. Hospitals, however, normally pro vide a wider scope of services calling for more special ized skills than do nursing homes; therefore, the pro portion of employees classified as professional and tech nical workers (e.g., registered professional nurses, di etitians, occupational therapists, etc.) was much higher in hospitals (about two-fifths) than nursing homes (onefifth). The most populous job, by far, in nursing homes was nursing aid—accounting for about two-fifths of that 3 Text table 2.

Hospitals (except Federal) groups as licensed practical nurses and clerical and oth er nonprofessional positions. Occupational pay relationships of hospital workers followed similar patterns within each of the areas stud ied (table 1). General duty nurses, for example, usually averaged from 25 to 40 percent more than licensed practical nurses and from 50 to 80 percent more than nursing aids in each area. Some degree of variation in area pay structures did occur. Average hourly earnings for medical technologists, for example, were higher than for radiologic technologists (usually by a margin of 10 to 20 percent) in all areas but New York; there, radiologic technologists held a 3-percent edge. Earnings of individual hospital employees in the same occupation and area often were widely dispersed; the range between the highest and lowest hourly earnings for a single job frequently exceeded $3 an hour (tables 6-19). This wide dispersion of wage rates reflects not only differences between pay levels of individual hos- Occupational earnings Occupations studied were divided into two major categories—professional/technical workers and non professional employees. These specific occupations were selected to represent the wide variety of pay lev els and activities found in hospitals and usually ac counted for 40 to 50 percent of hospital employment within each area. For half of the areas studied in September 1978, av erage hourly earnings of professional hospital workers fell into three distinct ranges. The top range—from about $7.50 to $10 an hour—embraced such jobs as head nurses, supervisors of nursing, pharmacists, and clinical specialists (text table 3). The middle range— from $5.50 to $7.50 an hour—included general duty nurses, the most numerous of all professional occupa tions studied, and various types of medical technicians, technologists, and therapists. The lowest range—$3.50 to $5.50 an hour—usually applied to such occupational Text table 3.

Occupational pay levels generally were higher in State and local gov ernment hospitals than in private hospitals. However, both the degree and extent of such wage differences varied widely among the 19 areas where comparisons between the two types of hospitals were possible (ta bles 3 and 4). In Denver, Minneapolis-St. Paul, Phila delphia, and Washington, for example, the pay advan tage went to government hospital workers for almost every occupation permitting comparison. In New York, San Francisco, and St. Louis, on the other hand, the majority of job comparisons showed private hospital workers holding a small wage advantage over their government counterparts. Text table 4 summarizes these and other government/nongovernment wage differen tials for some of the most populous occupations. Comparisons of pay levels for workers whose wage rates were, or were not, set by labor-management agree ments are published for eight of the areas studied (ta ble 2). In just over one-half of the comparisons made for professional and technical occupations, average hourly earnings were slightly higher for union than for nonunion situations. Among nonprofessional jobs, un ion workers held a wage advantage slightly more often, in about three-fifths of the comparisons. The following tabulation summarizing these comparisons shows that the typical union-nonunion wage differential was 5 per N u m b e r o f o c c u p a tio n s Union as a percent of nonunion pay: P r o fe s s io n a l a n d te c h n ic a l N o n p ro fe s sio n a l - Under 80 ......................... 80-89 ............................... 90-94 ............................... 95-99 ............................... 100 .................................... 101-105 ........................... 106-110 ........................... 111-119 ........................... 120 and over .................. 8 15 32 3 38 15 10 3 1 4 9 24 4 20 18 20 3 T otal comparisons . . 124 103 Although the extent of union coverage varied wide ly between government and private hospitals (text ta ble 2), the union-to-nonunion wage differences were basically similar in both types of institutions. In most areas, slightly over one-half of all occupational com parisons for each type of institution indicate a wage advantage for employees whose rates were set by la bor-management agreements.

Some variation, however, was found both within and among the areas studied. Run ning counter to the overall pattern, for example, parttime physical therapists typically averaged 5 to 15 per cent more per hour than their full-time counterparts. Paid holidays were provided to virtu ally all private and government hospital workers in the survey (tables 28 and 29). In most southern and west ern areas, the majority of professional and nonprofes sional employees received from 7 to 8 paid holidays annually. In most of the north central areas, 8 to 9 paid holidays were the most common provisions; and in the northeastern areas, 10 to 11 holidays. Among the most liberal areas for holidays were New York and San Fran cisco, where a majority of employees received 11 to 12 paid holidays per year. Generally, provisions for gov ernment hospital workers were slightly more generous than those for private workers. P a i d h o lid a y s . Establishment practices and supplementary wage provisions Information was also obtained on minimum entrance salaries for general duty and licensed practical nurses; on shift differential practices for registered profession al nurses; and on work schedules and the incidence of selected supplementary benefits, including paid holi days, paid vacations, and health, insurance, and retire ment plans for full-time workers in two occupational categories—professional/technical (referred to below as professional) and nonprofessional. All hospital workers were provided paid vacations after qualifying periods of service (tables 32 and 33). Typical provisions called for 2 weeks of vacation pay after 1 year of service; 3 weeks after 5 years; and at least 4 weeks after 15 years. In most of the areas studied, vacation provisions for professional employees were identical to those for nonprofessional workers. Where differences existed, provisions tended to be more liberal for professionals. Vacation provisions for up to 20 years of service were approximately the same for both government and pri vate hospital employees, but maximum vacation provi sions beyond this point tended to be higher for govern ment workers. In New York, for example, just under seven-tenths of all nonprofessionals in government hos pitals received at least 5 weeks of vacation pay after 25 years of service compared to about one-eighth of their private hospital counterparts. P a id v a c a tio n s. Nearly all of the govern ment and private hospitals visited by the Bureau in Sep tember 1978 had formal policies setting minimum en trance salaries for general duty and licensed practical nurses (tables 20-23). In most of the areas studied, en trance rates for general duty nurses in both types of hospitals usually ranged between $5.40 and $6.40 an hour; for licensed practical nurses, the typical begin ning salary ranged from $4 to $5. Minimum entrance rates were usually the same for general duty nurses with or without a bachelor’s degree, but some variation among areas was noted. In Milwaukee, for example, only one-half of all private hospitals surveyed reported identical entrance rates for both groups of general duty nurses, and in Minneapolis-St. Paul, only 1 of the 17 hospitals did.

Life insurance, hospitalization, basic medical, major medical, and sur gical insurance coverage applied almost universally to hospital employees in most of the areas studied (tables 36 and 37). Sick leave provisions, usually full pay with no waiting period, also were widespread. Although typically the same proportion of both government and nongovernment workers in each area were covered by these provisions, the source of funding varied consid erably. In Boston, for example, hospitalization insur ance paid for entirely by the employer applied to about nine-tenths of the private hospital work force, while in non-Federal goverment hospitals all workers were re quired to contribute at least part of the cost. Acciden tal death and dismemberment insurance coverage was much more prevalent among private hospitals than among government hospitals in most of the areas studied. Dental insurance plans applied to one-third or less of the private hospital work force in 12 areas; to between In most areas, virtually all professional and nonprofessional employees were sched uled to work a 40-hour week (tables 24 and 25). In some, however, shorter workweeks were predominant. For example, all private hospital employees in Buffalo were scheduled for a 37-1/2-hour week, as were at least two-thirds of all private and non-Federal government hospital workers in New York. S c h e d u le d w e e k ly h ours. S h if t d if f e r e n ti a l p r a c tic e s f o r r e g is te r e d p r o f e s s io n a l About 25 to 30 percent of all registered pro fessional nurses were employed on second shifts and 15 to 20 percent on third or other late shifts (tables 26 and 27). In every area, all or virtually all of these nurses received some type of pay differential, usually 40 to 50 cents per hour above day-shift rates for evening work and 50 to 60 cents extra for third or other late shifts. In some areas, such as New York and Dallas-Fort Worth, shift premiums were often calculated on a week n u rses. 8 covered by noncontributory plans greatly exceeded the corresponding proportion of government workers. one-half and seven-eighths of the workers in 4 areas; and to all or virtually all employees in Portland, San Francisco, and Seattle. Dental insurance for govern ment hospital employees was reported in fewer areas— 12 areas compared to 19 areas for private hospitals. But the extent of such coverage within the 12 areas permit ting comparison was usually much higher—in 6 areas all or virtually all government hospital workers were covered by dental insurance plans. Some form of maternity benefit plan, as part of the hospital’s health insurance package, was widespread in the majority of areas studied. While maternity policies providing additional paid leave were rare, nearly all hospitals allowed their employees to use either sick leave and/or vacation time during a pregnancy. Some form of retirement plan applied to the entire work force covered by the survey. A combination of private pensions and social security was the most prev alent type of coverage—usually applying to at least nine-tenths of all private and non-Federal government hospital workers. In Cleveland, Denver, Houston, Miami, and Washington, however, pension plans for government workers typically did not include social security. As was the case for most forms of health care insurance, there were wide variations in the funding of retirement plans by type of hospital. In 14 areas, for example, the proportion of private hospital employees Earnings data presented for hospital work ers did not include the value of room, board, or other perquisites, although the incidence of such benefits was obtained for six occupations: General duty nurse; li censed practical nurse; hospital cleaner; nursing aid; flatwork finisher; and food service helper. Free meals were not prevalent; they applied to no more than one-fifth of the food service helpers and to smaller proportions of the other job groups. Similarly, meals offered at a reduced cost were typically available to one-fifth or less of the workers in the six jobs. Pro visions for free lodging were almost nonexistent. Pro visions for free uniforms, laundering of uniforms, or both, or monetary allowance in lieu of these perquisites were widespread among the areas. Free uniforms and laundering services were more commonly provided to nonprofessionals—cleaners, nursing aids, flatwork fin ishers, and food service helpers—than to either gener al duty or licensed practical nurses. (In six areas, for example, at least one-half of all hospital cleaners and food service helpers received this perquisite, while the proportion of registered professional nurses rarely reached one-fourth.)

Nursing and Personal Care Facilities Occupational earnings ules and the incidence of selected supplementary ben efits, including paid holidays and paid vacations, and health insurance, and retirement plans for both profes sional and nonprofessional employees. Nursing home occupations studied in September 1978 were also grouped into two categories—professional/technical and nonprofessional. These occupations— usually accounting for between 50 and 75 percent of the total employment within each of the 21 areas stud ied—were selected to represent the wide variety of pay levels and activities found in nursing and personal care facilities. Among the seven professional occupations studied, physical therapists usually had the highest average hour ly earnings—typically between $7 and $9 an hour among the 21 areas (table 42 and text table 5). The next high est averages were usually found for dietitians or head nurses—normally between $6 and $7.50 an hour. Gen eral duty nurses, the most populous of the professional jobs, typically reported average hourly earnings of be tween $5.50 and $6.50 an hour. Average hourly earn ings for most of the nonprofessional jobs typically fell between $2.90 and $3.20 an hour. The major exception was building maintenance workers, who normally av eraged between $4 and $4.50 an hour. Occupational pay relationships within most of the 21 areas studied were fairly uniform. General duty nurses, for example, typically averaged between 20 and 35 per cent more per hour than licensed practical nurses, while their average earnings advantage over nursing aids usu ally ranged from 90 to 110 percent. In New York, how ever, general duty nurses averaged 14 percent more than licensed practical nurses and 45 percent more than nursing aids. Earnings of individual workers within the same oc cupation and area were often widely dispersed (tables 43-57). The spread between the highest and lowest in dividual rates often exceeded $3 an hour; in many cases, this was a wider difference than that found between occupations of disparate skill levels. Part-time employees, those scheduled to work fewer hours per week than their full-time counterparts, were found in almost every occupation studied. In most of the 21 areas surveyed, average hourly earnings for parttime employees were typically less than for full-time employees, but the wage differential rarely exceeded 5 percent. In 18 of the 21 areas, the vast majority of full-time professional employees were scheduled to work 40 hours per week (table 58). In Buffalo, New York, and Philadelphia, about one-half of all professionals had workweeks of 37-1/2 hours, and in New York, just over two-fifths of the professionals were scheduled for 35-hour weeks. Within most of the areas, nonprofessional employees were usually sched uled to work the same number of hours per week as professional employees. Where a difference did exist, workweeks for nonprofessionals tended to be shorter than for professionals. S c h e d u le d w e e k ly h o u rs . Paid holidays were provided to all or virtually all full-time workers in two-thirds of the ar eas, and to between two-thirds and nine-tenths in the remaining areas (table 59). The most liberal provisions were reported in New York, where a majority of the workers received 12 or 13 paid holidays a year. Provi sions for 8 to 10 paid holidays were predominant in 6 areas, while in the remaining 14 areas 5 to 6 paid hol idays were most common. In two-thirds of the areas, most part-time workers received paid holidays—typically prorated according to the number of hours worked. In the remaining third, a majority were in establishments that typically provid ed paid holidays only to their full-time employees. P a id h o lid a y s . After qualifying periods of service, all or virtually all full-time professional and nonprofession al employees were provided with paid vacations in each of the 21 areas (table 60). Typical provisions called for 2 weeks of vacation pay after 1 year of service and 3 weeks’ pay after 5 years (also the most common max imum). In Boston, Buffalo, New York, and San Fran cisco, a maximum of 4 weeks or more per year after longer periods of service was common. As with paid holiday provisions, paid vacations for part-time work ers in 17 of the 21 areas studied were usually prorated based on hours worked; in Atlanta, Houston, Los An geles, and Miami, paid vacations normally were avail able to only full-time workers. H e a l t h in s u r a n c e , a n d r e tir e m e n t p la n s . In one-third of the areas studied, at least nine-tenths of all full-time P a i d va c a tio n s. Establishment practices and supplementary wage provisions Information also was obtained on weekly work sched 146 nursing home employees were provided hospitalization, medical, major medical, and surgical insurance financed solely or in part by their employers (table 61). Such coverage in the remaining areas was usually limited to between 60 and 80 percent of the work force. Formal sick leave plans, normally full pay without a waiting period, covered at least 60 percent of the professional and nonprofessional workers in 19 of the 21 areas. In only about one-half of the areas were both life and ac cidental death and dismemberment insurance available to as many as 50 percent of the nursing home workers; long-term disability and/or dental insurance coverage Text table 5. was almost nonexistent in all areas studied. Retirement plans, usually in the form of pensions rather than severance pay, were not widespread. In Buffalo and New York, they covered at least a major ity of the workers; in 10 areas, from one-fifth to twofifths; and in the remaining areas, about one-sixth of the employees or less. Only in Milwaukee, New York, and San Francisco were a large majority of part-time nursing home em ployees provided with health insurance and retirement benefits. When coverage was provided, moreover, the incidence rarely equaled that for full-time workers.

Federal Government Hospitals Information presented in the main body of this bul letin is limited to private and State and local govern ment hospitals. The Federal Government operated one or more hospitals in each of the 23 areas studied Sep tember 1978 (table A-l). Among these areas, the Vet erans Administration (VA) was the largest employer of hospital personnel and operated at least one hospital in each of the survey areas. The Public Health Service operated hospitals in seven of the survey areas. The Department of the Army operated hospitals in eight areas, the Navy in eight areas, and the Air Force in five areas. Information on the various pay systems used by the VA, the Public Health Service, the Navy, and other Federal agencies is presented in this appendix. Also provided is information on supplementary wage bene fits of Federal hospital employees. Specific data for Army and Air Force hospitals are not discussed in the text. These hospitals serve almost exclusively the needs of military personnel and their dependents, and are largely staffed by members of the Armed Forces, who are paid according to the rates authorized for members of the uniformed services by section 203a of title 37 of the United States Code (37 U.S.C. 203(a)). Pay rates for civilian blue-collar workers—trade, maintenance, and service workers—in Federal hospitals (as well as other U.S. Government agencies) are set in accordance with provisions of the Federal Wage Sys tem (5 U.S.C. 5341-5349). This system provides for common job grading standards and pay policies among U.S. Government agencies.

Registered professional nurses are paid according to the VA Nurse Schedule, which is nationwide and has rate ranges prescribed by law (38 U.S.C. 4107). Other pro fessional and technical employees covered by the Bu reau’s study, office clerical employees, chief housekeep ers, nursing aids, practical nurses, and psychiatric aids are paid nationwide rates under the General Schedule (5 U.S.C. 5332). In some localities, salaries for licensed practical nurses and other hospital employees under the General Schedule have been adjusted upward to reflect rates paid in the community when the lower statutory rates significantly handicapped the VA’s recruitment and retention of both groups. Wage rates of blue-collar employees are set on an area-by-area basis under the Federal Wage System. Table A-2 indicates the occupation, salary rates, grade designation, and how these occupations correspond to those studied by the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Salary schedules for registered professional nurses are shown in table A-3, and schedules for workers covered by the General Schedule in table A-4. Table A-5 lists area wage scales for selected trades and service occupations covered by the Federal Wage System. In each area, workers have a single wage sched ule covering a series of grades, including provisions for within-grade advancement. ment, full-time registered nurses accrue 26 working days a year. in su ra n c e , a n d p e n s io n p la n s . Full-time VA medical center employees, including registered nurses, annually accrue 13 working days of sick leave which may be used in hourly units. The Federal Government pays part of the cost of a group term life insurance plan, including provisions for accidental death and dismemberment benefits, and any one of several types of group health insurance plans, providing hospitalization, surgical, and extended med ical benefits, that may be selected by the employees. Eligible employees injured in the performance of duty may elect to receive benefits (similar to those provided under workers’ compensation) under the Federal Em ployees Compensation Act. All full-time (permanent) employees of the Federal Government (except military personnel) are entitled to retirement pension benefits prescribed by the Civil Serv ice Retirement Act. Under this act, employees contrib ute 7 percent of their earnings to a fund to which the government also contributes. Annuities are determined according to the individual’s salary level and length of service. H e a lth y Department of Health, Education, and Welfare U.S. Public Health Service Administration3 Supplementary wage benefits Annual leave provisions2for all full-time employees except registered professional nurses of VA medical centers are as follows: 13 working days a year for employees with fewer than 3 years of service; 20 working days a year for employees with 3 but less than 15 years of service; and 26 working days for employ ees with 15 years of service or more. Upon employ- Registered professional nurses and other profession al employees of Public Health Service (PHS) hospitals may be paid according to either the Career Compen sation Act or the General Schedule. Employees under the Career Compensation Act (Commissioned Corps) constitute a highly mobile staff of professional employ ees who may be transferred from one hospital to an other to meet changing requirements. Like those of the military service, salaries of these employees are supple mented by monetary allowances for rent and subsis tence. Salary schedules for these employees are not pro vided in this report. General duty nurses and head nurses, paid according to the General Schedule, were usually classified in GS-9 and GS-11, respectively, in the seven survey areas hav ing PHS hospitals. Grade designations for supervisors of nurses varied (either GS-11 or GS-12) by area, de pending on the nature of the duties and responsibilities for for the occupation. Directors of nursing were usu ally Commissioned Corps personnel, but some were General Schedule employees at a GS-13 or GS-14 lev el. Nursing instructors may be either Commissioned 1 For a description of supplementary wage benefits provided Federal employees under the General Schedule, see Wage Chronology: Federal Employees Under the General Schedule Pay System, July 1924-October 1974, Bulletin 1870 (Bureau of Labor Statistics, 1975) and its latest supplement published in 1980. 2 Annual leave is granted for vacations and also for other personal reasons, such as time off to attend funerals of family members. 3 In July 1973, the U.S. Public Health Service was reorganized into six component agencies. Each agency reports to the Office of the Assistant for Human Services. Data in this appendix relate to U.S. Public Health Service hospitals operated by the Health Services Administration. Provisions for supplementary wage benefits, as sum marized, are limited to those items covered by the Bu reau’s study of private and non-Federal government hospitals. Employees paid under the General Schedule and those paid under the Federal Wage System receive the same benefits1 Provisions are somewhat different . for registered professional nurses in the VA nursing service.

Grade designa tions for other professional and technical occupations covered by the study, as well as for selected office cler ical occupations and for chief housekeepers, nursing aids, and practical nurses generally were similar to those previously described for the Veterans Adminstration. In the seven PHS hospitals surveyed, pay rates of service and maintenance employees are under the Fed eral Wage System and are identical to those paid at VA medical centers. (See table A-5.) Navy Registered professional nurses and other profession al and technical occupations in Navy hospitals in the ar eas surveyed separately were staffed largely by mem bers of the Armed Forces. However, civilian general duty nurses, paid according to the General Schedule, were usually classified in grades GS-7 to GS-9; most were classified in GS-9. Civilian medical librarians were classified in grade GS-9 and purchasing agents in grades GS-5 to GS-7, depending upon the area. Civilian em ployees in selected office clerical jobs generally were classified as follows: Payroll clerks and senior stenog raphers, GS-5; transcribing-machine typists and gener al stenographers, GS-4; and switchboard operators, GS3. Civilian nursing aids were classified in grade GS-4. Food service supervisor and psychiatric aid positions usually were staffed by military personnel. Navy hos pitals in the selected areas did not employ chief housekeepers. Like wages in VA and PHS hospitals, wages of Navy civilian employees in selected maintenance, food serv ice, and laundry occupations are fixed and adjusted in accordance with prevailing community rates (Federal Wage System). Area rates for Navy jobs correspond to those presented for VA medical centers. Table A-5.

Tables B-l and B-2 show the number of hospitals, nursing homes, and workers estimated to be within the scope of the survey, as well as the number actually studied by the Bureau. Establishment definition A hospital, for the purposes of this study, is defined as a single physical location where medical, psychiat ric, or surgical services are provided. Short-term hos pitals are those in which patients stay an average of less than 30 days. A nursing home is defined for this study as a single physical location where nursing and/or personal care is provided. An establishment is not necessarily identi cal with a company, which may consist of one estab lishment or more. The terms establishment, facility, and home are used interchangeably in Part II of this bulletin. Employment Estimates of the number of workers within the scope of the study are intended as a general guide to the size and composition of the industry’s labor force, rather than as precise measures of employment. Estimates of total employment include full-time, part-time, execu tive, and administrative employees as well as members of religious orders. Students and volunteers were not considered as employees. Full-time and part-time employees Employees hired to work a regular weekly schedule were considered full-time workers; those hired to work a schedule calling for fewer weekly hours than the es tablishment’s schedule for full-time employees in the same general type of work were considered part-time workers. Occupational classification Occupational classification was based on a uniform set of descriptions designed to take account of interestablishment and interarea variation in duties within the same job. (See appendix C for these descrip tions.) The criteria for selection of the occupations were: The number of workers in the occupation; the usefulness of the data in collective bargaining; and appropriate representation of the entire job scale in the industry. Apprentices, learners, beginners, trainees, and handicapped, part-time, temporary, and probationary workers were not reported in the data for selected oc cupations. Regularly employed part-time workers were Method of study Data were obtained by personal visits of the Bureau’s field staff to a representative sample of establishments within the scope of the survey. To obtain appropriate accuracy at minimum cost, a greater proportion of large than of small establishments was studied. All estimates 180 Table B-1.

Supervisors and working supervisors, who spend less than 20 per cent of their time performing functions similar to those performed by employees under their supervision were included only in those occupations in which the occu pational description was specifically designed to include such workers. Wage data Information on wages relates to straight-time hourly earnings, excluding premium pay for overtime and for work on weekends, holidays, and late shifts as well as the value of room, board, or other perquisites provid ed in addition to cash payments. Cost-of-living bonus es were included as part of the workers’ regular pay. Nonproduction bonus payments, such as Christmas or yearend bonuses, were excluded. Average (mean) hourly rates or earnings occupation or category of workers were calculated by weighting each rate (or hourly earnings) by the number of work ers receiving the rate, totaling, and dividing by the number of individuals. The hourly earnings of salaried workers were obtained by dividing straight-time salary by normal (or standard) hours to which the salary corresponds. The median designates position; that is, one-half of the employees surveyed received more than this rate and one-half received less. The middle range is defined by rates of pay such that one-fourth of the employees earned less than the lower of these rates and one-fourth earned more than the higher rate. Separate occupation al wage data are presented, where possible in Part I, Professional/technical workers The term “professional/technical workers” or “pro fessional workers”, as used in this bulletin, includes reg istered professional nurses, and other professional and technical employees such as dietitians, therapists, li censed practical nurses, medical and radiological tech nologists, medical record administrators, and pharmacists. Nonprofessional workers As used in Part I of this bulletin, “nonprofessional workers” includes office clerical and other nonprofes sional employees. Office clerical employees are nonsupervisory workers performing clerical work through out the hospital. These employees are usually found in the medical records section, the business office, and the laboratory of the hospital. Other nonprofessional em ployees include nursing aids, orderlies, cleaners, kitch en help, housekeepers, and unskilled laboratory help (including bottle washers) and maintenance employees. In Part II, the term “nonprofessional workers” in re lig io u s s e p a ra te ly . m e m b e rs 182 for hospital workers whose wage rates are set by la bor-management agreement or are not set by such agreement. Minimum hourly entrance salaries of nurses Tabulations relate to formally established policies for minimum hourly hiring salaries of general duty nurses and licensed practical nurses of the hospitals included in the Bureau’s sample. Scheduled weekly hours Data on weekly hours refer to the predominant work schedule for full-time employees on the day shift in each of the two major occupational categories. Shift practices for registered professional nurses Data refer to the practices in those hospitals opera ting extra shifts during the payroll period studied. Supplementary wage provisions Supplementary benefits in an establishment were con sidered applicable to all full-time professional and non professional workers if they applied to half or more of such workers in the establishment. Similarly, if fewer than half of the workers were covered, the benefit was considered nonexistent in the establishment. Because of length-of-service and other eligibility requirements, the proportion of workers receiving the benefits may be smaller than estimated. Separate fringe benefit data are presented, where pos sible in Part I, for hospitals that had (1) a majority of the professional/technical or nonprofessional workers covered by labor-management contracts, and (2) none or a minority of the professional/technical or nonpro fessional workers covered by labor-management contracts. Paid holiday provisions relate to full and half-day holidays provided annually. P a i d h o lid a y s . The summaries of vacation plans are to formal arrangements and exclude informal plans whereby time off with pay is granted at the discretion of the employer or supervisor. Payments not on a time basis were converted; for example, a payment of 2 per cent of annual earnings was considered the equivalent of 1 week’s pay. The periods of service for which data are presented represent the most common practices, but they do not necessarily reflect individual establishment provisions for progression. For example, changes in proportions indicated at 10 years of service may include changes which occurred between 5 and 10 years. P a id va c a tio n s. all or a part of the cost, excluding programs required by law such as workers’ compensation and social secu rity. Among plans included are those underwritten by a commercial insurance company and those paid direct ly by the employer from his current operating funds or from a fund set aside for this purpose. Death benefits are included as a form of life insur ance. Sickness and accident insurance is limited to that type of insurance under which predetermined cash pay ments are made directly to the insured on a weekly or monthly basis during illness or accident disability. In formation is presented for all such plans to which the employer contributes at least a part of the cost. How ever, in New York and New Jersey, where temporary disability insurance laws require employer contribu tions,1plans are included only if the employer (1) con tributes more than is legally required, or (2) provides the employees with benefits which exceed the require ments of the law. Tabulations of paid sick leave plans are limited to formal plans which provide full pay or a proportion of the worker’s pay during absence from work because of illness; informal arrangements have been omitted. Sep arate tabulations are provided for (1) plans which pro vide full pay and no waiting period, and (2) plans pro viding either partial pay or a waiting period. Long-term disability insurance plans provide pay ments to totally disabled employees upon the expiration of sick leave, sickness and accident insurance, or both, or after a specified period of disability (typically 6 months). Payments are made until the end of disability, a maximum age, or eligibility for retirement benefits. Payments may be full or partial, but are almost always reduced by social security, workers’ compensation, and private pension benefits payable to the disabled employee. Medical insurance refers to plans providing for com plete or partial payment of doctors’ fees. Such plans may be underwritten by a commercial insurance com pany or a nonprofit organization, or they may be a form of self-insurance. Major medical insurance, sometimes referred to as extended medical or catastrophe insurance, includes plans designed to cover employees for sickness or in jury involving an expense which exceeds the normal coverage of hospitalization, medical, and surgical plans. Tabulations of retirement pensions are limited to plans which provide regular payments for the remainder of the retiree’s life. Data on the extent to which hospital employees are covered by Federal social security are also included since some hospitals are not automatical ly covered by the Federal system. Data are presented Health, insurance, and retirement plans Data are presented for health, insurance, pension, and retirement severance plans for which the employer pays 1The temporary disability laws in California and Rhode Island do not require employer contributions. 18 3 separately for retirement severance pay (one payment or several over a specified period of time) made to em ployees on retirement. Establishments providing both retirement severance payments and retirement pensions to employees were considered as having both retire ment pensions and retirement severance plans; howev er, establishments having optional plans providing em ployees a choice of either retirement severance pay ments or pensions were considered as having only re tirement pension benefits. 184 Appendix C. Occupational Descriptions The primary purpose of preparing job descriptions for the Bureau’s wage surveys is to assist its field rep resentatives in classifying into appropriate occupations workers who are employed under a variety of payroll titles and different work arrangements from area to area. This permits grouping of occupational wage rates rep resenting comparable job content. Because of this em phasis on comparability of occupation content, the Bu reau’s job descriptions may differ significantly from those used in individual establishments or those pre pared for other purposes. In applying these job descrip tions, the Bureau’s field representatives were instructed to exclude students and members of religious orders. Supervisors and working supervisors were omitted un less job descriptions provided contrary instructions. Part I.

NOTE: Where there is a question as to whether a nurse is a general duty nurse or a head nurse (e.g., where there is only one professional nurse in a nursing unit who supervises nonprofessional personnel giving direct patient care), ask the following questions: A. Is this nurse considered to be responsible for eval uating the nursing needs of the patients and for super vising and coordinating the execution of doctors’ orders? B. Is this nurse responsible not only for patient care but for nursing service in the unit (e.g., evaluating qual ity of this care, assigning personnel to duties, orienting personnel and evaluating their work)?

May take and record temperatures, respiration, and pulse. E x c lu d e s nurse anesthetists, those who are given ex tra compensation as assistant head nurses, those who spend more than half their time in the central supply department or in the classroom and organized nursing unit instruction. Also excludes “ graduate nurses” who have completed nursing school training but have not yet passed the required State examinations. NOTE: Where there is a question as to whether a nurse is a general duty nurse or a head nurse (e.g., where there is only one professional nurse in a nursing unit who supervises nonprofessional personnel giving direct patient care), ask the following question: Is this nurse considered to be responsible for eval uating the nursing needs of the patients and for super vising the execution of doctors’ orders? ing (processes two or more programs simultaneously). The following duties characterize the work of a com puter operator: -Studies operating instructions to determine equip ment setup needed. -Loads equipment with required items (tapes, cards, disks, paper, etc.) -Switches necessary auxiliary equipment into system. -Starts and operates computer. -Responds to operating and computer output instructions. -Reviews error messages and makes corrections dur ing operation o r refers problems. -Maintains operating record. May test-run new or modified programs. May assist in modifying systems or programs. The scope of this definition includes trainees working to become fully qualified computer operators, and lead operators pro viding technical assistance to lower level operators. It excludes workers who monitor and operate remote terminals. For wage study purposes, computer operators are classified as follows: Nursing instructor A registered professional nurse who instructs student, professional, or practical nurses in theory and practical aspects of nursing art and science: Assists in planning and preparing curriculum and outline for course. Lec tures to students and demonstrates accepted methods of nursing service, such as carrying out medical and surgical treatments, observing and recording symptoms, and applying principles of asepsis and antisepsis.

Excludes nurses who spend less than half of their time on such duties. Class A In addition to work assignments described for a Class B operator (see below), the work of a Class A opera tor involves at least one of the following: -Deviates from standard procedures to avoid the loss of information or to conserve computer time even though the procedures applied materially alter the com puter unit’s production plans. -Tests new programs, applications, and procedures. -Advises programmers and subject-matter experts on setup techniques. -Assists in (1) maintaining, modifying, and develop ing operating systems or programs; (2) developing op erating instructions and techniques to cover problem situations; and/or (3) switching to emergency backup procedures (such assistance requires a working knowl edge of program langauge, computer features, and soft ware systems). An operator at this level typically guides lower lev el operators. Class B In addition to established production runs, work as signments include runs involving new programs, appli cations, and procedures (i.e., situations which require the operator to adapt to a variety of problems). At this level, the operator has the training and experience to work fairly independently in carrying out most assign ments. Assignments may require the operator to select from a variety of standard setup and operating proce dures. In responding to computer output instructions Other Professional and Technical Employees Computer operator In accordance with operating instructions, monitors and operates the control console of a digital computer to process data. Executes runs by either serial process ing (processes one program at a time) or multi-process 187 or error conditions, applies standard operating or cor rective procedures, but may deviate from standard pro cedures when they fail if the deviation does not mate rially alter the computer unit’s production plans. Refers the problem or aborts the program when procedures applied do not provide a solution. May guide lower level operators. Class C Work assignments are limited to established produc tion runs (i.e., programs which present few operating problems). Assignments may consist primarily of onthe-job training (sometimes augmented by classroom instruction). When learning to run programs, the super visor or a higher level operator provides detailed writ ten or oral guidance to the operator before and during the run. After the operator has gained experience with a program, however, the operator works fairly inde pendently in applying standard operating or corrective conditions, but refers problems to a higher level oper ator or the supervisor when standard procedures fail. (Not classifiable by level) Workers in positions with work characteristics as de scribed, and within the range of defined levels, should be reported under this classification when the informa tion needed to classify them according to the level def initions is not available. Computer programmer, business (Digital computer programmer) Converts statements of business problems, typically prepared by a systems analyst, into a sequence of de tailed instructions which are required to solve the prob lems by automatic data processing equipment. Working from charts or diagrams, the programmer develops the precise instructions which, when entered into the com puter system in coded language, cause the manipulation of data to achieve desired results. Work involves most of the following: Applies knowledge of computer ca pabilities, mathematics, logic employed by computers, and particular subject matter involved to analyze charts and diagrams of the problem to be programed; devel ops sequence of program steps; writes detailed flow charts to show order in which data will be processed; converts these charts to coded instructions for machine to follow; tests and corrects programs; prepares instruc tions for operating personnel during production run; analyzes, reviews and alters programs to increase op erating efficiency or adapt to new requirements; main tains records of program development and revisions. (NOTE: Workers performing both systems analysis and programming should be classified as systems analysts if this is the skill used to determine their pay.) Does not include employees primarily responsible for the management or supervision of other electronic data 188 processing employees, or programmers primarily con cerned with scientific and/or engineering problems. Fo r wage study purposes, programmers are classified as follows: C la s s ^-Works independently or under only general direction on complex problems which require compe tence in all phases of programming concepts and prac tices. Working from diagrams and charts which identi fy the nature of desired results, major processing steps to be accomplished, and the relationships between var ious steps of the problem solving routine, plans the full range of programming actions needed to efficiently uti lize the computer system in acheiving desired end prod ucts. At this level, programming is difficult because computer equipment must be organized to produce sev eral interrelated but diverse products from numerous and diverse data elements. A wide variety and exten sive number of internal processing actions must occur. This requires such actions as development of common operations which can be reused, establishment of link age points between operations, adjustments to data when program requirements exceed computer storage capac ity, and substantial manipulation and resequencing of data elements to form a highly integrated program. May also provide functional direction to lower level pro grammers who are assigned to assist. C la s s B -Works independently or under only general direction on relatively simple programs, or on simple segments of complex programs. Programs (or segments) usually process information to produce data in two or three varied sequences or formats. Reports and listings are produced by refining, adapting, arraying, or mak ing minor additions to or deletions from input data which are readily available. While numerous records may be processed, the data have been refined in prior actions so that the accuracy and sequencing of data can be tested by using a few routine checks. Typically, the program deals with routine record-keeping type operations. O r : Works on complex problems (as described for Class A) under close direction of a higher level programmer or supervisor. May assist higher level programmer by independently performing less difficult tasks assigned, and performing more difficult tasks under fairly close direction. May also guide or instruct lower level programmers C la s s C-Makes practical applications of programming practices and concepts usually learned in formal train ing courses. Assignments are designed to develop com petence in the application of standard procedures to routine problems.

(NOTE: Workers performing both systems analysis and programming should be classified as sys tems analysts if this is the skill used to determine their pay.) Does not include employees primarily responsible for the management or supervision of other electronic data processing employees, or systems analysts primarily concerned with scientific or engineering problems. Systems analysts are classified as follows: -Works independently or under only general direction on complex problems involving all phases of systems analysis. Problems are complex because of di verse sources of input data and multiple-use require ments of output data. (For example, develops an inte grated production scheduling, inventory control, cost analysis, and sales analysis record in which every item of each type is automatically processed through the full system of records and appropriate followup actions are initiated by by the computer.) Confers with persons concerned to determine the data processing problems and advises subject-matter personnel on the implications of new or revised systems of data processing operations. Makes recommendations, if needed, for approval of ma jor system installations or changes and for obtaining equipment. May provide functional direction to lower level systems analysts who are assigned to assist. C la s s A C la s s B -Works independently or under only general direction on problems that are relatively uncomplicated to analyze, plan, program, and operate. Problems are of limited complexity because sources of input data are 189 homogeneous and the output data are closely related.(For example, develops systems for maintaining depositor accounts in a bank, maintaining accounts receivable in a retail establishment, or maintaining in ventory accounts in a manufacturing or wholesale establishment.) Confers with persons concerned to determine the data processing problems and advises subject-matter personnel on the implications of the data processing systems to be applied. O r : Works on a segment of a complex data processing scheme or system, as described for Class A. Works in dependently on routine assignments and receives in struction and guidance on complex assignments. Work is reviewed for accuracy of judgement, compliance with instructions, and to insure proper alignment with the overall system. C la s s C -Works under immediate supervision, carry ing out analysis as assigned, usually of a single activity. Assignments are designed to develop and expand expe rience in the application of procedures and skills re quired for systems analysis work. For example, may as sist a higher level systems analyst by preparing the de tailed specifications required by programmers from in formation developed by the higher level analyst.
