An establishment was considered as having a policy if it met either of the following
conditions: (1) Operated late shifts at the time of the survey, or (2) had formal provisions covering
late shifts. An establishment was considered as having formal provisions if it (1) had operated late
shifts during the 12 months prior to the survey, or (2) had provisions in written form for operating
late shifts.

The temporary disability laws in California and Rhode Island do not require employer
contributions.
An establishment was considered as having a formal plan if it established at least the
minimum number o f days o f sick leave available to each em ployee.
Such a plan need not be
written, but informal sick leave allowances, determined on an individual basis, were excluded.

Unless otherwise indicated, all changes are increases.

c Eliminating the effect of payments under a "progress-sharing" plan in 1 manufacturing establishment would result in the following percents o f change between September 1966 and August 1967:
A ll industries’— office clerical (4 .6 ), industrial nurses (8 .0 ), skilled maintenance (3 .4 ), and unskilled plant (3 .6 ); manufacturing— office clerical (3 .0 ), industrial nurses (7 ,9 ), skilled maintenance (3 .3 ),
and unskilled plant (5. 3).
3 Changes were affected by the inclusion of the "progress-sharing" bonus mentioned in footnote 2.
This decrease reflects a lower proportion of employment reported in high-wage establishments rather than wage decreases.

Appendix. Occupational Descriptions

The prim ary purpose o f preparing jo b descriptions for the Bureau's w age surveys is to assist its fie ld
staff in classifyin g into appropriate occu pation s workers who are e m p lo y e d under a variety o f payroll titles
and d ifferen t work arrangements from establishm ent to establishm ent and from area to area.
This permits
the grouping o f occu p a tion a l w age rates representing com pa ra ble jo b content.
Because o f this emphasis on
interestablishm ent and interarea com p a ra b ility o f o ccu p a tion a l content, the Bureau's jo b descriptions m ay
d iffer sign ifican tly from those in use in individual establishm ents or those prepared for other purposes.
In
applying these jo b descriptions, the Bureau's fie ld econom ists are instructed to ex clu d e w oikin g supervisors;
apprentices; learners; beginners; trainees; and han dicapped, p a rt-tim e , tem porary, and probationary workers.

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
"v ice president," though normally indicative of this role, does notin 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.
