Introduction 1/
The Hartford area is one of 40 major labor markets in
which the Bureau of Labor Statistics is currently conducting
occupational wage surveys#
Occupations common to a variety of
manufacturing and nonmanufacturing industries were studied on a
community-wide basis#
Cross-industry methods of sampling were
thus utilised in compiling earnings data for the following types
of occupations:
(a) office, (b) professional and technical,
(c) maintenance and power plant, and (d) custodial, warehousing,
and shipping# In presenting earnings information for such jobs
(tables A-l through A -4) separate data have been provided wher
ever possible for individual broad industry divisions#
Occupations that are characteristic of particular
local industries that are important in the community have been
studied on an industry basis, within the framework of the com
munity survey# 2/
Earnings data for these jobs have been pre
sented in Series B tables#
Union scales (Series C tables) are
presented in lieu of
(or supplementing)
occupational earnings
for several industries or trades in which the great majority of
the workers are employed under terms of collective bargaining
agreements, and the contract or minimum rates are indicative of
prevailing pay practices.
Data have also been collected and summarized on shift
operations and differentials, hours of work, and supplementary
benefits such as vacation and sick leave allowances, paid holi
days, nonproduction bonuses, and insurance and pension plans#

Total population of the Hartford Metropolitan Area,
including the city of Hartford and 13 towns in Hartford county,
was approximately 357,000 in 1950. TMis represented an Increase
of about 20 percent over the census figure for 1940# More than
half of this total resided in the city of Hartford#
1 / Prepared in the Bureau’s regional office in Boston, Mass#,
by Bernard J# Fahres, Regional Wage and Industrial Relations
Analyst# The planning and central direction of the program was
carried on in the Branch of Community Wage Studies of the Bu
r e a u ’s Division of Wages and Industrial Relations In Washington,
D. C#
2 / See appendix for discussion of scope and method of survey#
Situated midway between New York and Boston, Hartford
is the capital and largest city in Connecticut.
Its industrial
composition mirrors the changes which have been gradually tak
ing place in the economy of southern New England# Total nonagricultural employment in the area was 192,000 in October 1951#
Of this number, over 31,000 were employed in the fabricated
metals and aircraft industries, a gain of more than 30 percent
over 1950#
An additional 24,000 workers were employed in the
machinery industry, an increase of 20 percent over the preceding
year# The importance of the metalworking industries to the area
is indicated by the fact that nearly 65,000 workers, or 80 per
cent of the total manufacturing employment, were within this
classification#
Hartford plants manufacture a variety of products in
cluding aircraft engines and propellers, typewriters, firearms,
dishwashing machines, machine tools and gages, forgings, time
switches and parking meters, electrical devices, turbines, gears,
coffee makers, and many others#
Among the products of soft
goods industries are parachutes, brushes, apparel, food and kin
dred products, printing and publishing, textiles,
chemicals,
and rubber products#
Insurance is of major importance in the nonmanufactur
ing field#
This industry has steadily increased in importance
until today one of the largest concentrations of insurance under
writing in the western hemisphere is in Hartford#
Over 20,000
were employed in this industry in October 1951#
Other large
groups were found in wholesale and retail trade where some 37,000
are employed, while an additional 19,000 workers were engaged
in the service industries#
Total government employment in the
area was estimated at slightly over 16,000#
The outbreak of hostilities in Korea had important
effects upon total employment in the area#
Over 10,000 workers
in the area were unemployed in January 1950.
However, at the
time of the study, Hartford had a labor shortage in almost all
categories# It was one of six labor areas in the United States
classified by the Bureau of Employment Security of the United
States Department of Labor as an area of labor shortage# The
growth of the aircraft and metalworking industries, with a re
sulting shortage of labor in virtually all skilled job classi
fications, was largely accountable for this change#

A significant component of Hartfordfs agricultural
economy is the production and processing of tobacco leaf pri
marily for use as cigar wrappers 0 Hartford is the center of the
tobacco industry in the Connecticut Valley 0 Today this region
produces two-thirds of all wrapper tobacco used by American
cigar manufacturers*
Among the industries and establishment-size groups
included within the scope of the Bureau's study, two-thirds of
the plant workers were employed in establishments having written
agreements with labor organizations* The degree of unionization
varied widely in the different industry groups studiedo In the
manufacturing industries, about three out of four workers were
covered by union agreements* Plant workers in nonmanufacturing
industries were not extensively affected by union contract pro
visions, except in the transportation, communication, and public
utility group, where the ratio was approximately the same as in
manufacturing* B y contrast, only about 1 out of 25 plant work
ers in the services group were included under the terms of a
union agreement* The proportion of office workers represented
by union organizations was significant only in the transporta
tion, communication and public utility group, where approxi
mately two out of five were covered*
In all other divisions
union coverage among office workers was negligible*
Occupational
W age
S tructure
Wage levels in the Hartford area were affected by a
number of general wage changes during the period preceding the
survey0
Between January 1950, the base period for the Wage
Stabilization Board's "catch-up11 wage formula,said October 1951,
nearly all manufacturing plant employees received general wage
increases* The majority of these were between 10 and 20 cents
an hour* Nonoffice employees in the public utility industries
received similar increases; whereas, workers in wholesale and
retail trade and service establishments received somewhat small
er increases* About nine—tenths of the total office employment
in manufacturing industries received wage adjustments during
the period - usually expressed in terms of percentages rather
than cents per hour.
Many of the office employees in the fi
nance and public utilities industries also received wage adjust
ments; general increases to office workers in other industry
groups were somewhat less frequent*
Formalized rate structures providing a range of rates
for office occupations were reported in establishments employ
ing over four-fifths of all office workers* This was predomi
nantly true of manufacturing companies, and of those in the in
surance field where 9 out of 10 persons were employed by com
panies having a formal structure and a range of rates* Among
time-rated plant workers two out of three were employed by com
panies having a similar formalized structure.
Of those remain
ing , the largest number were employed in plants also with a
formal structure, but with single-rated jobs. Fewer than 1 out
of 10 plant employees in Hartford were employed by companies
where the rate was dependent upon individual determination, the
greatest proportion being in the service industries, in which 3
in 4 rates were determined individually*
The majority of Hartford firms studied had establish
ed minimum entrance rates for inexperienced plant workers.
On
an all-industry basis, this minimum was typically between 90
cents and $1.20 an hour with the largest single group receiving
$1*05 an hour* Public utilities had the highest entrance rates
with half of all workers employed in plants where the minimum
was $1*10 an hour or over. Among wholesale and retail trade and
service organizations established minimum rates were less typi
cal and were only found In companies employing about half of the
total*
In retail trade the minimum was set at 75 cents an hour
or under by companies employing approximately half of the total
number of workers.
Wages and salaries of workers in manufacturing indus
tries were generally higher than in nonmanufacturing, and in 16
out of 21 office classifications permitting comparison, the sal
aries of 10 averaged $4 a week or more than equivalent positions
in the nonmanufaeturing field.
Average hourly earnings for
plant occupations,
studied on a cross-industry basis, showed a
similar pattern. Within 21 job classifications where comparison
was possible, hourly rates among manufacturing establishments
were higher for 14 jobs*
The scheduled workweek for plant employees reflected
the intensification of defense production in the Hartford area*
Among manufacturing industries, 7 out of 10 workers were on a
scheduled workweek of over 40 hours, with over half this group
on a schedule of 48 hours or more. By contrast, three out of
four workers in the public utility group and half the workers
in trade and service establishments were on a 40-hour workweeko
Office workers were generally scheduled at 40 hours or less in
all divisions. Among manufacturing industries, however, two out
of five office workers were scheduled for an extended workweek
of 48 hours.
Approximately one-fourth of all plant employees in
Hartford manufacturing plants were working on second and thirdshift operations in October 1951.
Virtually all of these were
receiving shift differentials which were principally expressed
in terms of cents per hour. The hourly differential paid to the
largest number of workers on the second shift was 10 cents.
Differentials for workers on third-shift operations
showed less uniformity and in addition to premium pay included
provisions for a full day's pay for reduced hours*

Occupational Wage Survey, Hartford, Conn., October ±951
U.S. DEPARTMENT OF LABOR
Bureau of Labor Statistics

Appendix — Scope ar
With the exception of the union soale of rates, in
formation presented in this bulletin was collected by visits of
field representatives of the Bureau to representative establish
ments in the area surveyed. In classifying workers by occupa
tion, uniform job descriptions were used; these are available
upon request.
Six broad industry divisions were covered in compiling
earnings data for the following types of occupations i (a) office
clerical, (b) professional and technical, (o) maintenance and
power plant, and (d) custodial, warehousing, and shipping (tables
A-l through A-A). The covered industry groupings are t manufac
turing; transportation (except railroads), oosmnmication, and
other public utilities; wholesale trade; retail trade; finance,
insurance, and real estate; and services. Information on work
schedules and supplementary benefits also was obtained in a rep
resentative group of establishments in each of these industry
divisions o As indicated in the following table only establish
ments above a certain size were studied. Smaller establishments
were omitted because they furnished insufficient employment in
the occupations studied to warrant their inclusion.
Among the industries in which characteristic jobs were
strdied, minimum size of establishment and extent of the area
covered were determined separately for each industry (see fol
lowing table).
Although size limits frequently varied from
those established for surveying cross-industry office and plant
jobs, data for these jobs were included only for firms meeting
the size requirements of the broad industry divisions.
A greater proportion of large than of small establish
ments was studied in order to maximize the number of workers
surveyed with available resources. Each group of establishments
Method of Survey
of a certain size, however, was given its proper weight in the
combination of data by industry and occupation.
The earnings information excludes premium pay for over
time and night work. Nonproduotion bonuses are also excluded,
but cost-of-living bonuses end incentive earnings, including
commissions for salespersons, are included. Where weekly hours
are reported as for offioe olerioal, they refer to the work sched
ules (rounded to the nearest half-hour) for which the straighttime salaries are paid; average weekly earnings for these occu
pations have been rounded to the nearest 50 cents. The number
of workers presented refers to the estimated total employment in
all establishments within the soope of the study and not to the
number actually surveyed.
Data are shown for only full-time
workers, i.e., those hired to work the establishment's full-time
schedule for the given occupational classification.
Information on wags practices refers to all offioe
and plant workers as specified in the individual tables. It is
presented in terms of the proportion of all workers employed in
offioes (or plant departments) that observe the practice in
question,except in the section relating to women offioe workers
of the table sumnarizing scheduled weekly hours • Because of eli
gibility requirements, the proportion actually receiving the
specific benefits may he smaller.
The summary of vacation and
sick leave plans is limited to formal arrangements. It excludes
informal plans whereby time off with pay is granted at the dis
cretion of the employer or other supervisor. Sick leave plans
are further limited to those providing full pay for at least
some amount of time off without any provision for a waiting
period preceding the payment of benefits. These plans also ex
clude health insurance even though it is paid for by employers.
Health insurance is included, however, under tabulation for in
surance and pension plans.
