Of th e se , 98,700 were employed in tra d e , fin an ce, and serv ic e s; 62,900 were in w holesale and r e t a i l, tr a d e ; 11,U00 were employed in fin a n c ia l in s titu tio n s inclu d ing insurance c a r r ie r s and re a l e s ta te o p erato rs; and 2U,lf00 were in th e serv ice in d u s trie s . Approximately ^5>700 w orkers were employed in m anufacturing; 27,000 in tra n s p o rta tio n , communication, and o th er p u b lic u t i l i t i e s ; 18,300 in c o n tract con s tru c tio n ; and 1,200 in m ining. Union o rg an izatio n in Denver is p ro p o rtio n ate ly le s s than in th e la rg e West Coast c i t ie s and most E astern and Midwestern in d u s tr ia l a re a s. Like S a lt Lake C ity and Phoenix, Denver is more c lo se ly a lin e d w ith c i t ie s o f th e South in term s o f the ex ten t of union o rg an iz atio n . Among th e in d u s trie s and estab lish m en t-size groups stu d ie d , about tw o -th ird s o f th e Denver p la n t workers were employed in estab lish m en ts having w ritte n co n tra c ts w ith lab o r o rg an iz atio n s in November 1952. Nine o f every 10 p la n t workers in th e p u b lic u t i l i t i e s group o f in d u s trie s surveyed were employed under u n io n -co n tract term s. In m anufacturing, th re e -fo u rth s o f the p la n t w orkers were in organized estab lish m en ts. In th e tra d e , fin an ce, and serv ice in d u s trie s , considered as a group, le s s than h a lf were covered by c o n tra c t p ro v isio n s; although in w holesale tra d e , taken s e p a ra te ly , th re e -fo u rth s o f th e p la n t workers were in union e stab lish m en ts.

Averages fo r c a rp e n te rs, e le c t r ic ia n s , and m ach in ists were a t o r near $ 1 .90 . For to o l-a n d -d ie makers the average was $2 .05 , and fo r p a in te rs and mechanics (au to motive and o th ers) they were a t o r near $ 1 .80 . S k ille d craftsm en as a group h eld about a 20 p ercen t advantage in pay over th e le s s s k ille d h elp ers who averaged $1.53 an hour. In o th er jobs re q u irin g s k il l comparable to th a t of th e m aintenance tra d e s h e lp e r, o ile r s had an hourly average o f $1.57 and s ta tio n a ry b o ile r firem en $1.59* The h ig h est s k il l s stu d ied had a 35 p ercen t advantage over th e low est, excluding c u sto d ia l w orkers.

Average s a la rie s in most womens o ffic e c la s s ific a tio n s stu d ied were above $1*5 a week. Women earned about 25 p ercen t more in occupations demanding co n sid erable re s p o n s ib ility and a wide knowledge o f o ffic e procedures than in jobs o f a ro u tin e n atu re r e q u irin g no sp e c ia l a b i l i t i e s . S e c re ta rie s averaged $ 6 l a week, p a y ro ll c le rk s $52, and o rd er c le rk s $1*9 . 50. At th e o th er end of th e s c a le , o ffic e g ir ls averaged $37.50, ro u tin e f i l e c le rk s $1*0, and copy ty p is ts $1*3.50. Follow ing th e g en eral p a tte rn in th e la rg e r la b o r markets, Denver pay in m anufacturing in d u s trie s is g e n e ra lly h ig h er than in nonm anufacturing. Of 18 p la n t occupations p e rm ittin g comparisons in November 1952, average earn in g s in m anufacturing were h ig h er by 6 to 36 cen ts an hour in 13 c a se s. In 10 o f 13 womens o ffic e c la s s if ic a tio n s , average s a la rie s in m anufacturing were h ig h er by $1 to $7 a week. Comparison o f th e Denver o ccupational wage s tru c tu re in November 1952 w ith d ata from a s im ila r survey made 3 years e a r lie r in d ic a te s s u b s ta n tia l gains in money wages.

S e c re ta rie s had a $2*9 weekly average, p a y ro ll c le rk s $2*2.50, and o rd er c le rk s $2*0.50. O ffice g ir ls were paid $32, ro u tin e f i l e c le rk s $31.50, and copy ty p is ts $35.50. Wages o f p la n t w orkers in Denver were la rg e ly determ ined on the b a s is o f form alized wage s tru c tu re s in la t e 1952. A pproxi m ately fo u r - f if th s of th e t o t a l p la n t w orkers were employed a t tim era te d jo b s.

Workers on in cen tiv e system s o f pay accounted fo r approxim ately 20 p ercen t of th e t o t a l p la n t workers and were employed c h ie fly in m anufacturing and r e t a i l tra d e . Almost tw o -th ird s o f Denver o ffic e w orkers were re p o rte d in firm s which had esta b lish e d form al s a la ry ranges fbr each c l a s s i f ic a tio n .

DEPARTMENT OF LABOR B ureau o f Lab or S t a t i s t i c s 17 Appendix - Scope and Method of Survey The Bur e a u ’s occupational wage surveys are designed to provide a rnayiinmn of useful and reliable information with avail able resources* In order to use resources efficiently and to pub lish results promptly, the surveys did not cover all establishments in the community. Although those studied are selected to provide representative results, no sample can reflect perfectly all differ ences in occupational structure, earnings, and working conditions among establishments. such jobs were included only for firms ments of the broad industry divisions. Because of the great variation in occupational structure among establishments, estimates of occupational employment are sub ject to considerable sampling fluctuation. Hence, they serve only to indicate the relative numerical importance of the jobs studied. The fluctuations in employment do not materially affect the accuracy of the earnings data. The earnings information excludes premium pay for overtime and night work. Nonproduction bonuses are also excluded, but costof-living bonuses and incentive earnings, including commissions for salespersons, are included. Where weekly hours are reported, as for office clerical occupations, reference is to work schedules (rounded to the nearest half-hour) for which the straight-time sala ries are paid; average weekly earnings for these occupations have been rounded to the nearest 50 cents 9 The number of workers pre sented refers to the estimated total employment in all establish ments within the scope 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. With the exception of the union rate scales, information presented in this bulletin was collected by visits of the Bureau’s field representatives to establishments included in the study. Occupational classification is based on a uniform set of job de scriptions designed to take account of interestablishment variation in duties within the same job; these job descriptions are available upon request. Six broad industry divisions were covered in compiling earnings data for the following types of occupations: (a) office clerical; (b) professional and technical; (c) maintenance and power plant; and (d) custodial, warehousing, and shipping (tables A-l through A - 4 ) . The industry groupings surveyed are: manufacturing; transportation (except railroads), communication, and other public utilities; wholesale trade; retail trade; finance, insurance, and real estate; and services. Information on wcrk schedules and supple mentary benefits also was obtained in a representative group of es tablishments in each of these industry divisions. As indicated in the following table, only establishments above a certain size were studied. Smaller establishments were omitted because they fur nished insufficient employment in the occupations studied to war rant inclusion. Among the industries in which characteristic jobs were studied, minimum size of establishment and extent of the area cov ered were determined separately for each industry (see following table). Although size limits frequently varied from those estab lished for surveying cross-industry office and plant jobs, data for meeting the size require A greater proportion of large than of small establishments was studied in order to maximize the number of workers surveyed with available resources. Each group of establishments of a certain size, however, was given its proper weight in the combination of data by industry and occupations. The term office workers” referred to in this bulletin includes all office clerical employees and excludes administrative, executive, professional, and technical personnel. "Plant workers" includes working foremen and all nonsupervisory workers (including leadmen and trainees) engaged in nonoffice functions. Administra tive, executive, professional and technical employees, and forceaccount construction employees who are utilized as a separate work force, are excluded. Although cafeteria workers, routemen, and in stallation and repair employees are excluded in manufacturing in dustries, these work categories are included as plant workers in nonmanufacturing industries. Shift-differential data are limited to manufacturing in dustries and have been presented both in terms of establishment policy and according to provisions for workers actually employed on extra shifts at the time of the survey. Establishments were considered as having a shift-differential policy if they met any of the following conditions: operated late shifts at the time of the survey; operated late shifts within 6 months before the field visit; or had a union-contract provision for payment of extra-shift work. Proportions in the tabulation of establishment policy are presented 18 in term s o f t o t a l p la n t employment, v h ereas p ro p o rtio n s in th e sec ond ta b u la tio n re p re s e n t only th o se w orkers a c tu a lly employed on th e s p e c ifie d l a t e s h if t .
