1 The Albuquerque Standard Metropolitan Statistical A rea, as defined by the Bureau of the Budget through March 1965, consists of B ernalillo County. The "w orkers within
scope of study"
estimates shown in this table provide a reasonably accurate description of the size and com position of the labor fo rce included in the survey. The estimates are not intended, how ever, to serve
as a basis of com parison with other employment indexes for the area to measure employment trends or levels since (1) planning of wage surveys requires the use of establishment data com piled
considerably in advance of the payroll period studied, and (2) sm all establishments are excluded from the scope of the survey.
2 The 1957 revised edition of the Standard Industrial C lassification Manual and the 1963 Supplement were used in classifying establishments by industry division.
3 Includes all establishments with total employment at or above the minimum limitation. A ll outlets (within the area) of com panies in such industries as trade, finance, auto
repair se rv ice ,
and motion picture theaters are considered as 1 establishment.
4 Includes executive, p rofessional, and other workers excluded from the separate plant and office categories.
5 Taxicabs and services incidental to water transportation w ere excluded. The local transit system in the Albuquerque area is m unicipally operated and is excluded by definition from the
scope of the study.
6 This industry division is represented in estim ates for "a ll industries" and "nonmanufacturing" in the Series A tables, and for "a ll industries" in the Series B tables. Separate presentation
of data for this division is not made for one or m ore of the following reasons: (1) Employment in the division is too sm all to provide enough data to m erit separate study, (2) the sample was
not designed initially to perm it separate presentation, (3) response was insufficient or inadequate to perm it separate presentation, and (4) there is p ossibility of disclosu re of individual
establishment data.
7 W orkers from this entire industry division are represented in estimates for "a ll industries" and "nonmanufacturing" in the Series A tables, but from the real estate portion only in estimates
for "a ll industries" in the Series B tables. Separate p r e s e n t a t i o n o f d a ta f o r t h i s d i v i s i o n is n o t m a d e f o r o n e o r m o r e of th e reasons given in footnote 6 above.
8 Hotels; personal services; business services; automobile repair shops; motion pictures; nonprofit m embership organizations (excluding religious and charitable organizations); and engineering
and architectural s ervices.
About one-fifth of the workers within scope of the survey in the Albuquerque area
w ere employed in manufacturing firm s. The following table presents the m ajor industry
groups and specific industries as a percent of all manufacturing:

This information is based on estim ates of total employment derived from universe
m aterials com piled prior to actual survey. Proportions in various industry divisions may
differ from proportions based on the results of the survey as shown in table 1 above.

3 Transportation, communication, and other public utilities.
4 Includes data for wholesale trade; retail trade; finance, insurance, and real estate; and se rv ice s , in addition to those industry divisions shown separately.
5 Includes payments other than "length of t im e ," such as percentage of annual earnings or flat-sum payments, converted to an equivalent time b asis; for example, a payment of 2 percent
of annual earnings was considered as 1 week's pay. P eriods of service were a rbitrarily chosen and do not n ecessarily reflect the individual provisions for p rogression s. F or example, the
changes in proportions indicated at 10 y ea rs' service include changes in provisions occurring between 5 and 10 years. Estimates are cumulative. Thus, the proportion receiving 3 weeks' pay
or m ore after 5 years includes those who receive 3 w eeks' pay or m ore after fewer years of service.
6 Less than 0.5 percent.

Appendix A. Changes in Occupational Descriptions
Since the Bureau's last survey, occupational descriptions for drafts
man, secretary, and switchboard operator were revised in order to obtain
salary information for more specific categories.
of a single category, clarifying the criteria of types of calls handled and
types of information provided. The combination of class A and class B
data, where both are published, is comparable to the single designation,
if previously published.
Secretary. The revised descriptions for secretary (classes A, B,
C, and D) classify these workers according to levels of responsibility. The
size of the organization and the scope of the supervisor's position are con
sidered in distinguishing these levels. Data published under the composite
title of secretary are not comparable to data previously published.
Draftsman. The revised descriptions for draftsman (classes A, B,
and C; and draftsman-tracer) replace the previous designations for drafts
man (leader, senior, and junior; and tracer) and emphasize the distinction
between drafting and design skills. Therefore, data presented for any of
these occupations are not comparable to data previously published.
Switchboard operator. The revised description for switchboard
operator arranges these workers into two defined classes (A and B) instead
19
The revised occupational descriptions are included in appendix B.
Appendix B. Occupational Descriptions
The primary purpose of preparing job descriptions for the Bureau's wage surveys is to assist its field
staff in classifying into appropriate occupations workers who are employed under a variety of payroll titles
and different work arrangements from establishment to establishment and from area to area. 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 Bureau'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 instructed to exclude working supervisors,
apprentices, learners, beginners, trainees, handicapped, part-time, temporary, and probationary workers.

Class B. Keeps a record of one or more phases or sections of

SECRETARY— Continued
Exclusions
Not all positions that are titled "secretary" possess the above
characteristics. Examples of positions which are excluded from the def
inition are as follows: (a) Positions which do not meet the "personal"
secretary concept described above; (b) stenographers not fully trained in
secretarial type duties; (c) stenographers serving as office assistants to a
group of professional, technical, or managerial persons; (d) secretary posi
tions in which the duties are either substantially more routine or substan
tially more complex and responsible than those characterized in the def
inition; and(e) assistant type positions which involve more difficult or more
responsible technical, administrative, supervisory, or specialized clerical
duties which are not typical of secretarial work.
NOTE: The term "corporate officer," used in the level definitions
following, refers to those officials who have a significant corporate-wide
policymaking role with regard to major company activities. The title
"vice president, " though normally indicative of this role, does not in all
cases identify such positions. Vice presidents whose primary responsibility
is to act personally on individual cases or transactions (e. g. , approve or
deny individual loan or credit actions; administer individual trust accounts;
directly supervise a clerical staff) are not considered to be "corporate
officers" for purposes of applying the following level definitions.
Class A
a. Secretary to the chairman of the board or president of a
company that employes, in all, over 100 but fewer than5,000 persons; or
b. Secretary to a corporate officer (other than the chairman of
the board or president) of a company that employs, in all, over 5, 000 but
fewer than 25, 000 persons; or
c. Secretary to the head (immediately below the corporate
officer level) of a major segment or subsidiary of a company that employs,
in all, over 25, 000 persons.
