O ccupational em ploym ent estim ates rep resen t the total in a ll establishm ents within the scop e o f the study and not the number actually su rveyed. B ecause o f d ifferen ces in occu pation al structure among establish m en ts, the estim ates of occupational em ploym ent obtained fro m the sam ple o f establishm ents studied serv e only to indicate the rela tive im portance o f the job s studied. These d iffe r en ces in occupational structure do not m a teria lly affect the a ccu ra cy o f the earnings data. O ccupations and Earnings The occu p ation s se le cte d for study are com m on to a v a riety o f m anufacturing and nonmanufacturing in du stries, and are o f the follow in g types: (a) O ffice c le r ic a l; (b) p ro fe ssio n a l and tech n ical; (c) m aintenance and pow erplant; and (d) cu stodial and m a teria l m o v e m ent.

The average sa la rie s o r h ourly earn in gs w e re then m ultiplied by em ploym ent in each o f the jo b s during the p e r io d surveyed in 1961. These w eighted earnings fo r individual occu pation s w e re then totaled to obtain an aggregate for each occu pation al group. F in a lly, the ratio (e x p re sse d as a percentage) o f the group aggregate fo r the one year to the aggregate fo r the other yea r was com puted and the d ifferen ce betw een the resu lt and 100 is the p ercen tage o f change fr o m the one p eriod to the other.

S im ila rly , the m ovem ent o f a high-paying establishm ent out o f an area could cause the average earnings to d ro p , even though no change in rates o c cu rre d in other establishm ents in the area . The use of constant em ploym ent w eights elim inates the effect of changes in the p rop ortion o f w ork ers rep resen ted in each jo b in cluded in the data. The p ercen tages of change re fle ct only changes in average pay fo r stra ig h t-tim e hours. They are not influenced by changes in standard w ork sch ed u les, as such, or by prem ium pay fo r ov ertim e.

This permits the grouping of occupational wage rates representing comparable job content. Because of this emphasis on interestablishment and interarea comparability of occupational content, the Bu reau’ s job descriptions may differ significantly from those in use in individual establishments or those prepared for other purposes. In applying these job descriptions, the Bureau’ s field economists are in structed to exclude working supervisors, apprentices, learners, beginners, trainees, handicapped, part-time, temporary, and probationary workers.
