Introduction 1/ The Boston area is 1 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 utilized in compiling earnings data for the following types of occupations: (a) office; (b) professional and technical; (c) maintenance and power plant; (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* Among the nondurable-goods industries in the Boston area, leather and leather products establishments employed some 30,000 workers, of whom about one-half were accounted for by the area*s large footwear industry. Significant numbers of workers were employed also in the following nondurable-goods industries: apparel, bakery, candy and confectionery, printing and publishing, canvas and rubber footwear, paperboard con tainers and boxes, industrial chemicals, and textile products. Occupations characteristic of particular, important, local industries were studied on an industry basis, within the framework of the community survey. 7 j Earnings data for these jobs have been presented 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* Employment in nonmanufacturing industries in the area exceeded manufacturing employment by about 50 percent. Boston*s position as New England’s largest city, leading trading area, and important financial center was indicated by the concentra tion of employment in trade and financial establishments* Some 225,OCX) workers earned their livelihood in wholesale and retail trade and an additional 75,000 were engaged in a variety of service industries. The finance, insurance, and real estate industries employed 60,000 workers, of whom one-third were accounted for by the a rea’s insurance companies. Also of im portance were contract construction with 44,000 workers, and transportation, communication, and other public utilities which gave employment to some 60,000 workers, exclusive of the sub stantial employment in the railroad industry. Data were collected and summarized on shift operations and differentials, hours of work, and supplementary benefits such as vacation and sick leave allowances, paid holidays, non production bonuses, and insurance and pension plans* The Boston Metropolitan Area Total population of the Boston Metropolitan Area, c o n sisting of Suffolk County and parts of Essex, Middlesex, Norfolk, and Plymouth Counties, was 2#370*500 in 1950, an increase of nearly 10 percent during the preceding decade. The city of Boston accounted for one-third of this total, whereas the re mainder were distributed among the other 64 cities and towns com prising the metropolitan area* Among the industries and establishment-size groups included within the scope of the Bureau’s study, about 7 of 10 plant workers were employed by firms in establishments having written agreements with labor organizations. Union coverage for plant workers was almost universal among establishments in the transportation, communication, and other public utilities group. Approximately 80 percent of the plant workers in manufacturing were employed in establishments with union contracts. Although union agreement coverage was less extensive in the nonmanufaoturing industries, more than half the total number of plant workers in wholesale and retail trade and in finance, insurance, and real estate establishments were covered by terns of union contracts. In April 1952, nonagricultural wage and salary employ ment (excluding government) totaled more than 780*000 workers, of which 304,000 were employed in some 5,BOO manufacturing establishments* Although manufacturing employment was divided 1 / Prepared in the Bureau* s regional office in Boston, Mass*, b y Aaron Krute under the direction of Bernard J. Fahres, Re gional Wage and Industrial Relations Analyst* The planning and central direction of the program was carried on in the Bureau* s Division of Wages and Industrial Relations* %/ See appendix for discussion of scope and method of sur vey. Unionization among office workers in the Boston area was relatively less significant. About a fourth of the office 2 / See appendix table for listing able-goods industries. L) of durable- and nondur- workers in manufacturing and a third in the transportation, communication, and public utility group were covered by union agreements# In each of the other industry groups, union con tract provisions covered less than 1 in 5 white-collar workers# found in the retail trade and services industries where half the nonoffice workers in retail trade and a third of those in the service industries were employed in establishments with minimum entrance rates of 75 cents an hour or less# In the public utili ties industries, a fourth of the plant workers were employed in establishments with minimum entrance rates of more than $1*20# Occupational W age Structure Wages and salaries of office workers in the manufac turing industries were usually higher than those in nonmanufac turing# In 23 of 25 classifications permitting comparison, average salaries of office workers in manufacturing establish ments exceeded those in nonmanufacturing establishments# Simi lar patterns were evident for hourly rated employees in those categories surveyed on a cross-industry basis# In custodial, warehousing, and shipping categories, manufacturing rates exrceeded those in nonmanufacturing in 13 of 16 cases where com parisons were possible# Average hourly earnings for maintenance workers were higher in manufacturing for 9 of Li comparable classifications# In nonmanufacturing, occupational wages and salaries for plant and office workers were generally highest in the public utilities and wholesale trade divisions# Between January 1950, the base period for the Wage Stabilization B o a r d s "catch-up” wage increase formula, and the time of the survey, more than four-fifths of the plant workers in the Boston area had received one or more general wage in creases# The number of general wage increases rose sharply immediately after the outbreak of hostilities in Korea# By April 1952, nearly all manufacturing plant workers had benefited from across-the-board wage increases; the majority of these in creases were between 10 and 20 cents an hour# A similar pattern of increases affected nonoffice workers in the public utility industries# In other nonmanufacturing groups wage advances were somewhat less extensive during the period; about 7 of 10 plant workers in these industries had received formal wage adjust ments# General wage adjustments for office workers during this period were similar to those received by plant workers# About fo\u>-fifths of the total office employment in manufactur ing establishments received general wage increases# In the non manufacturing industries, wage increases which were usually ex pressed in percentages, rather than in oents-per-hourf bene fited about three of four white-collar workers# Formalized rate structures for time workers were re ported in establishments employing about 85 percent of all plant workers and 70 percent of all office workers# Such plans were prevalent in all broad industry groups within the scope of the survey# Formal plans providing a range of rates affected a somewhat larger number of plant workers than did plans provid ing a single rate for each job# Practically all formal wage plans for office workers provided a range of rates for indivi dual occupations# Individual determination of salary rates for office workers prevailed in the service industries, however# Approximately two-fifths of the plant workers in the manufacturing industries participated in some form of incentive wage system# Incentive methods of wage payment were negligible in the nonraanufacturing industries; commissions paid to sales persons in retail establishments accounted for practically all workers in these industries covered by such systems# Minimum entrance rates for inexperienced piajnt work ers were a part of the formalized wage structures of establish ments employing nearly nine-tenths of the plant workers in the area# Although entrance rates were as high as $1.50 an hour, the majority of workers were employed in establishments with minimum rates between 75 cents and $1#15* Lower minima were Single-shift operations and a 40-hour workweek were common for plant workers in Boston manufacturing plants. Approximately 15 percent of all plant workers in the manufac turing industries were employed on second or third shifts# Among durable-goods industries, virtually all extra-shift workers re ceived pay differentials, which were usually expressed as a uniform percentage addition to hourly day rates; a uniform cents-per-hour addition to day rates was common among nondur able-goods establishments# The differentials paid to the largest number of second-shift workers amounted to 10 percent for d u r able-goods workers and 5 cents for nondurable-goods employees# Third-shift differentials showed less uniformity. Forty-hour workweeks were also prevalent among plant workers in all nonmanufacturing groups studied, with one ex ception# Most workers in the service industries had work sched ules of between 44 and 46 hours# More than half the office workers in the Boston area had a scheduled workweek of less than 40 hours at the time of the survey# However, workweeks of 40 hours or more were most common for office workers in m a n u facturing, wholesale trade, and services# Clerical workers in the finance, insurance, and real estate group were typically on schedules of 37J- hours or less# Supervisory pay systems providing fixed relationships between supervisory pay rates and rates of pay of workers super vised were found to be almost nonexistent in all industry groups within the scope of the survey, with one exception# In the durable-goods industries, establishments accounting for 30 per cent of all plant workers used some formal method of basing rates of first-level supervisors (generally designated group leaders or working foremen) on the rates earned by those super vised# In most instances, these plans provided fixed differ entials which took the form of specified percentages or centsper-hour additions to the earned rates of the highest paid workers supervised# A: Cross-Industry Occupations Table A-l: Q tfic* O ccu p a tio n (Average straight-time weekly hours and earnings 1/ for selected occupations studied on an area basis in Boston, Mass., by industry division, April 1952) NUMBER OF WORKERS RECEIVING STRAIGHT-TIME WEEKLY EARNINGS OF— Sex, occupation, and ind ustry d iv is io n Number of worker* $ $ $ t t $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ * $ $ $ t S $ * 1 Weekly Under 30.00 52.50 55.00 57.50 40.00 42.50 45.00 47.60 50.00 52.60 55.00 57.50 60.00 62.60 65.00 67.50 70.00 72.50 75.00 30.00 35.00 30.00 Weekly earnings $ hours and (Standard) (Standard) 30.00 32.50 55.00 57.50 40.00 42.50 45.00 47.50 50.00 52.50 55.00 57.50 60.00 62.50 65.00 67.50 70.00 72.50 75.00 30.00 35.00 30.00 over Men bookkeepers, hand ..................

These workers have not been included in this report and consequently the data reported for men draftsmen are not comparable to those published in the 1951 study. Revised data for March 1951 which compare with those in this report are as follows* All industries - 2,4-02 workers, 40*5 hours and $78 average weekly earnings; nonmanufacturing Industries — 1,202 workers, 41.0 hours and $79.50 average weekly earnings; services industries — 1,096 workers, 41.0 hours and $80 average weekly earnings. ** Finance, insurance, and real estate.

The earnings information excludes premium pay for over time and night work. Nonproduotion bonuses are also excluded, bat cost-of-living bonuses and incentive earnings, including ooamissions for salespersons, are inoludad. Where weekly hours airs reported as for offioe clerical,they refer to the work sched ules (rounded to the nearest half-hour) for whiah the straighttime salaries are paid} average weakly earnings for these occu pations have been rounded to the nearest 50 oents. 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 praotioes refers to all offioa and plant workers as specified in the individual tables. It is presented in terms of the proportion of all workers employed in offices (or plant departments) that observe the practice in question,except in the section relating to women offioe workers of the table sumnarising scheduled weekly hours. Because of eli gibility requirements, the proportion actually receiving the specific benefits may be smaller. The summary of vaoation and siok 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. Siok leave plans are further limited to those providing full pay for at least soma 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 far by employers. Health insurance is included, however, under tabulation for in surance and pension plans. 32 ESTABLISHMENTS A N D WORKERS IN MAJOR INDUSTRY DIVISIONS AND IN SELECTED INDUSTRIES IN BOSTON, MASS., 1/, AND NUMBER STUDIED BY THE BUREAU OF LABOR STATISTICS, APRIL 1952 Item Minimum number of workers in establishments studied 2/ Numlber of establ*Lshments Estimated total within Studied scope of study Employment Estimated total within scope of study In establishments studied Total Office Industry divisions in which occupations were surveyed on an area basis All divisions ....................................
