It yields detailed data by selected industry division for each of the areas studied, for geographic regions, and for the United States. A major consideration in the program is the need for greater insight into (1) the movement of wages by occupational category and skill level, and (2) the struc ture and level of wages among areas and industry divisions. At the end of each survey, an individual area bul letin presents survey results for each area studied. After completion of all of the individual area bulletins for a round of surveys, a two-part summary bulletin is issued. The first part brings data for each of the metropolitan areas studied into one bulletin. The second part presents information which has been projected from individual m et ropolitan area data to relate to geographic regions and the United States. Eighty-six areas currently are included in the program. In each area, information on occupational earn ings is collected annually and on establishment practices and supplementary wage provisions biennially.

The Standard Metropolitan Statistical Area, as defined by the Bureau of the Budget through April 1967, consists of P o r t a g e and S u m m it Counties. This s tu d y was conducted in the Bureau's r e g i o n a l office in Chicago, 111., Thomas J. McArdle, Director. The study was under the general d i r e c t i o n of Woodrow C. Linn, A s s i s t a n t Regional Director for Operations. 1 3 * NOTE: Similar tabulations are available for other areas. (See inside back cover.) A current report on earnings in the Akron area is also available for selected food service occupations (July 1968 ). iii 5 8 9 10 11 13 Area Wage Survey----The Akron, Ohio, Metropolitan Area Introduction Occupational employment and earnings data are shown for full-time workers, i.e ., those hired to work a regular weekly schedule in the given occupational classification. Earnings data exclude pre mium pay for overtime and for work on weekends, holidays, and late shifts. Nonproduction bonuses are excluded, but cost-of-living allow ances and incentive earnings are included. Where weekly hours are reported, as for office clerical occupations, reference is to the stand ard workweek (rounded to the nearest half hour) for which employees receive their regular straight-time salaries (exclusive of pay for overtime at regular and/or premium rates). Average weekly earnings for these occupations have been rounded to the nearest half dollar. This area is 1 of 86 in which the U.S. Department of Labor's Bureau of Labor Statistics conducts surveys of occupational earnings and related benefits on an areawide basis. This bulletin presents current occupational employment and earnings information obtained largely by mail from the establishments visited by Bureau field economists in the last previous survey for occupations reported in that earlier study. Personal visits were made to nonrespondents and to those respondents reporting unusual changes since the previous survey. In each area, data are obtained from representative estab lishments within six broad industry divisions: Manufacturing; trans portation, communication, and other public utilities; wholesale trade; retail trade; finance, insurance, and real estate; and services. Major industry groups excluded from these studies are government opera tions and the construction and extractive industries. Establishments having fewer than a prescribed number of workers are omitted because they tend to furnish insufficient employment in the occupations studied to warrant inclusion. Separate tabulations are provided for each of the broad industry divisions which meet publication criteria. The averages presented reflect composite, areawide esti mates. Industries and establishments differ in pay level and job staffing and, thus, contribute differently to the estimates for each job. The pay relationship obtainable from the averages may fail to reflect accurately the wage spread or differential maintained among jobs in individual establishments. Similarly, differences in average pay levels for men and women in any of the selected occupations should not be assumed to reflect differences in pay treatment of the sexes within individual establishments. Other possible factors which may contrib ute to differences in pay for men and women include: Differences in progression within established rate ranges, since only the actual rates paid incumbents are collected; and differences in specific duties per formed, although the workers are classified appropriately within the same survey job description. Job descriptions used in classifying em ployees in these surveys are usually more generalized than those used in individual establishments and allow for minor differences among establishments in the specific duties performed. These surveys are conducted on a sample basis because of the unnecessary cost involved in surveying all establishments. To obtain optimum accuracy at minimum cost, a greater proportion of large than of small establishments is studied. In combining the data, however, all establishments are given their appropriate weight. E s timates based on the establishments studied are presented, therefore, as relating to all establishments in the industry grouping and area, except for those below the minimum size studied. Occupational employment estimates represent the total in all establishments within the scope of the study and not the number ac tually surveyed. Because of differences in occupational structure among establishments, the estimates of occupational employment ob tained from the sample of establishments studied serve only to indicate the relative importance of the jobs studied. These differences in occu pational structure do not affect materially the accuracy of the earn ings data. Occupations and Earnings The occupations selected for study are common to a variety of manufacturing and nonmanufacturing industries, and are of the follow ing types: (l) Office clerical; (Z) professional and technical; (3) main tenance and powerplant; and (4) custodial and material movement. Oc cupational classification is based on a uniform set of job descriptions designed to take account of interestablishment variation in duties within the same job. The occupations selected for study are listed and de scribed in the appendix. The earnings data following the job titles are for all industries combined. Earnings data for some of the occupations listed and described, or for some industry divisions within occupations, are not presented in the A -series tables because either (1) employ ment in the occupation is too small to provide enough data to merit presentation, or (Z) there is possibility of disclosure of individual e s tablishment data. Establishment Practices and Supplementary Wage Provisions Tabulations on selected establishment practices and supple mentary wage provisions (B -series tables) are not presented in this bulletin. Information for these tabulations is collected biennially. These tabulations on minimum entrance salaries for inexperienced women office workers; shift differentials; scheduled weekly hours; paid holidays; paid vacations; and health, insurance, and pension plans are presented (in the B -series tables) in previous bulletins for this area. 1 2 T a b le 1.

The indexes are a measure of wages at a given time, expressed as a percent of wages during the base period (date of the area survey conducted between July I960 and June 1961). Subtracting 100 from the index yields the percentage change in wages from the base period to the date of the index. The percentages of change or increase relate to wage changes between the indicated dates. These estimates are measures of change in averages for the area; they are not intended to measure average pay changes in the establishments in the area. in the occupational group. These constant weights reflect base year employments wherever possible. 'The average (mean) earnings for each occupation were multiplied by the occupational weight, and the products for all occupations in the group were totaled. The aggregates for 2 consecutive years were related by dividing the aggregate for the later year by the aggregate for the earlier year. The resultant relative, less 100 percent, shows the percentage change. The index is the product of multiplying the base year relative (100) by the relative for the next succeeding year and continuing to multiply (compound) each year*s relative by the previous year*s index. Average earnings for the following occupations were used in computing the wage trends: Method of Computing Each of the selected key occupations within an occupational group was assigned a weight based on its proportionate employment O ffice clerical (men and women): Bookkeeping-machine operators, class B Clerks, accounting, classes A and B Clerks, file, classes A, B, and C Clerks, order Clerks, payroll Comptometer operators Keypunch operators, classes A and B O ffice boys and girls Table 2.

For plant worker groups, they measure changes in average straight-time hourly earnings, excluding premium pay for overtime and for work on weekends, holidays, and late shifts. The percentages are based on data for selected key occu pations and include most of the numerically important jobs within each group. Changes in the labor force can cause increases or decreases in the occupational averages without actual wage changes. It is conceivable that even though all establishments in an area gave wage increases, average wages may have declined because lower-paying establishments entered the area or expanded their work forces. Similarly, wages may have remained relatively constant, yet the averages for an area may have risen considerably because higher-paying establishments entered the area. Limitations of Data The indexes and percentages of change, as measures of change in area averages, are influenced by: (1) general salary and wage changes, (Z) merit or other increases in pay received by indi vidual workers while in the same job, and (3) changes in average wages due to changes in the labor force resulting from labor turn over, force expansions, force reductions, and changes in the propor tions of workers employed by establishments with different pay levels. The use of constant employment weights eliminates the effect of changes in the proportion of workers represented in each job in cluded in the data. The percentages of change reflect only changes in average pay for straight-time hours. They are not influenced by changes in standard work schedules, as such, or by premium pay for overtime. Where necessary, data were adjusted to remove from the indexes and percentages of change any significant effect caused by changes in the scope of the survey. 5 A. Occupational Earnings Table A-l.

Occupational D escriptions 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 o f payroll titles and different work arrangements from establishment to establishment and from area to area. This permits die grouping of occupational wage rates representing comparable job content. Because o f this emphasis on interestablishment and interarea comparability o f 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 woiking supervisors; apprentices; learners; beginners; trainees; and handicapped, part-time, temporary, and probationary workers.
