Preface
This bulletin provides results of a March 1975 survey of occupational earnings and
supplementary wage benefits in the San Francisco—
Oakland, California, Standard Metropolitan
Statistical Area (Alameda, Contra Costa, Marin, San Francisco, and San Mateo Counties).
The survey was made as part of the Bureau of Labor Statistics' annual area wage survey
program. The program is designed to yield data for individual metropolitan areas, as well
as national and regional estimates for all Standard Metropolitan Statistical A reas in the
United States, excluding Alaska and Hawaii.
A major consideration in the area wage survey program is the need to describe the
level and movement of wages in a variety of labor m arkets, through the analysis of (1) the
level and distribution of wages by occupation, and (2) the movement of wages by occupational
category and skill level. The program develops information that may be used for many
purposes, including wage and salary administration, collective bargaining, and assistance
in determining plant location. Survey results also are used by the U.S. Department of
Labor to make wage determinations under the Service Contract Act of 1965.
Currently, 82 areas are included in the program . (See list of areas on inside back
cover.) In each area, occupational earnings data are collected annually. Information on
establishment practices and supplementary wage benefits is obtained every third year.
Each year after all individual area wage surveys have been completed, two summary
bulletins are issued. The first brings together data for each metropolitan area surveyed.
The second summary bulletin presents national and regional estim ates, projected from indi­
vidual metropolitan area data.
The San Francisco—
Oakland survey was conducted by the Bureau's regional office
in San Francisco, C alif., under the general direction of Milton Keenan, Associate A ssistant
Regional Director for Operations. The survey could not have been accomplished without
the cooperation of the many firm s whose wage and salary data provided the basis for the
statistical information in this bulletin. The Bureau wishes to express sincere appreciation
for the cooperation received.

Note:
Reports on occupational earnings and supplementary benefits in the San Francisco
area are available for nursing homes (May 1973), machinery (February 1973), hotels and
motels (June 1973), auto dealer repair shops (June 1973), fluid milk (November 1973), banking
(September 1973), refuse hauling (March 1975), and department stores (September 1973).
A lso available are listings of union wage rates for building trades, printing trades, lo c a ltransit operating employees, local truckdrivers and helpers, and grocery store em ployees.
Free copies of these are available from the Bureau's regional o ffices. (See back cover for
addresses.)

Introduction
This area is 1 of 82 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. In this area, data were obtained
by personal visits of Bureau field economists to representative estab­
lishments within six broad industry divisions: Manufacturing; transpor­
tation, 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 operations and the
construction and extractive industries. Establishments having fewer than
a prescribed number of workers are omitted because of insufficient
employment in the occupations studied. Separate tabulations are provided
for each of the broad industry divisions which meet publication criteria.
A -series tables
Tables A - 1 through A -6 provide estimates of straight-time
hourly or weekly earnings for workers in occupations common to a
variety of manufacturing and nonmanufacturing industries. Occupations
were selected from the following categories: (a) Office clerical, (b) pro­
fessional and technical, (c) maintenance and powerplant, and (d) custodial
and material movement. In the 31 largest survey areas, tables A -l a
through A -6a provide similar data for establishments employing 500
workers or more.
Following the occupational wage tables is table A - 7 which
provides percent changes in average earnings of office clerical work­
ers, electronic data processing workers, industrial nurses, skilled




maintenance workers, and unskilled plant workers. This measure of
wage trends eliminates changes in average earnings caused by employ­
ment shifts among establishments as well as turnover of establishments
included in survey samples. Where possible, data are presented for all
industries, manufacturing, and nonmanufacturing. Appendix A discusses
this wage trend measure.
B -se r ie s tables
The B -series tables present information on minimum entrance
salaries for office workers; late-shift pay provisions and practices for
plaint workers in manufacturing; and data separately for plant and office
workers on scheduled weekly hours and days of first-sh ift workers; paid
holidays; paid vacations; and health, insurance, and pension plans.
Appendixes
This bulletin has two appendixes. Appendix A describes the
methods and concepts used in the area wage survey program. It provides
information on the scope of the area survey and information on the area's
industrial composition in manufacturing. It also provides information
on labor-management agreement coverage.
Appendix B provides job
descriptions used by Bureau field economists to classify workers in
occupations for which straight-time earnings information is presented.

N O T E : The percent increases presented in this table are based on changes in average
hourly earnings for establishments reporting the trend jobs in both the current and previous
year (matched establishments). Th ey are not affected by changes in average earnings
resulting fr om employment shifts a m o n g establishments or turnover of establishments
included in survey samples. The percent increases, however, are still affected by factors
other than wa g e increases. Hirings, layoffs, and turnover m a y affect an establishment
average for an occupation wh e n workers are paid under plans providing a range of wa g e rates
for individual jobs. In periods of increased hiring, for example, n e w employees enter at the
bottom of the-range, depressing the average without a change in wa ge rates.
These wa ge trends are not linked to the wa ge indexes previously published for this
area because the wage indexes me a s u r e d changes in area averages whereas these wa ge trends
m e as ur e changes in matched establishment averages. Other characteristics of these wage
trends which differ f r o m the discontinued indexes include (1) earnings data of office clerical
workers and industrial nurses are converted to an hourly basis, (2) trend estimates are
provided for nonmanufacturing establishments wh er e possible, and (3) trend estimates are
provided for electronic data processing jobs.
For a m o r e detailed description of the me th od used to compute these wa ge trends, see
"Improving Ar ea W a g e Survey Indexes," Monthly Labor R e v i e w , January 1973, pp. 52-57.

Footnotes
A ll of these standard footnotes may not apply to this bulletin.

1 Standard hours reflect the workweek for which employees receive their regular straight-time salaries (exclusive of pay for overtime
at regular and/or premium rates), and the earnings correspond to these weekly hours.
2 The mean is computed for each job by totaling the earnings of all workers and dividing by the number of workers. The median
designates position— half of the employees surveyed receive more and half receive less than the rate shown. The middle range is defined
by two rates of pay; a fourth of the workers earn less than the lower of these rates and a fourth earn more than the higher rate.
3 Excludes premium pay for overtime and for work on weekends, holidays, and late shifts.
4 These salaries relate to formally established minimum starting (hiring) regular straight-time salaries that are paid for standard
workweeks.
5 Excludes workers in subclerical jobs such as m essenger.
6 Data are presented for all standard workweeks combined, and for the most common standard workweeks reported.
7 Includes all plant workers in establishments currently operating late shifts, and establishments whose formal provisions cover late
shifts, even though the establishments were not currently operating late shifts.
8 L ess than 0.05 percent.
9 Less than 0.5 percent.
10 For purposes of this study, pay for a Sunday in December, negotiated in the automobile industry, is not treated as a paid holiday.
1 A ll combinations of full and half days that add to the same amount are combined; for example, the proportion of workers receiving
1
a total of 9 days includes those with 9 full days and no half days, 8 full days and 2 half days, 7 full days and 4 half days, and so on.
Proportions then were cumulated.
12 A Christmas—
New Year holiday period is an unbroken series of holidays which includes Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, New Year's
Eve, and New Y ea r's Day.
Such a holiday period is common in the automobile, aerospace, and farm implement industries.
13 "F loatin g" holidays vary from year to year according to employer or employee choice.
14 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 a sis; for example, 2 percent of annual earnings was considered as 1 week's pay. Periods of service are chosen arbitrarily
and do not necessarily reflect individual provisions for progression; for example, changes in proportions at 10 years include changes between
5 and 10 years. Estim ates are cumulative. Thus, the proportion eligible for at least 3 weeks' pay after 10 years includes those eligible for
at least 3 weeks' pay after fewer years of service.
1 Estim ates listed after type of benefit are for all plans for which at least a part of the cost is borne by the employer. "Noncontributory
5
plans" include only those financed entirely by the employer. Excluded are legally required plans, such as workmen's compensation, social
security, and railroad retirement.
1 Unduplicated total of workers receiving sick leave or sickness and accident insurance shown separately below. Sick leave plans are
6
limited to those which definitely establish at least the minimum number of days' pay that each employee can expect. Informal sick leave
allowances determined on an individual basis are excluded.

Establishment practices and supplementary w a g e provisions
Th e B-series tables provide information on establishment practices and supplementary wa ge
provisions for full-time plant and office workers. ’
’Plant workers" include working foremen and all
nonsupervisory workers (including le ad me n and trainees) engaged in nonoffice functions. Cafeteria
wo rk er s and routemen are excluded f r o m manufacturing, but included in nonmanufacturing industries.
"Office workers" include working supervisors and nonsupervisory workers performing clerical or
related functions. Administrative, executive, professional, and part-time employees are excluded.
Part-time employees are those hired to w o r k a schedule calling regularly for fewer weekly hours than
the establishment's schedule for full-time employees in the sa m e general type of work. The
determination is based on the employer's distinction between the two groups which m a y take into
account not only differences in w o r k schedules but differences in pay and benefits.
M i n i m u m entrance salaries for office workers relate only to the establishments visited. (See
table B-l.) Because of the o p t i m u m sampling techniques used and the probability that large
establishments are m o r e likely than small establishments to have formal entrance rates above the
subclerical level, the table is m o r e representative of policies in m e d i u m and large establishments.
Shift differential data are limited to full-time plant workers in manufacturing industries. (See
table B-2.) This information is presented in terms of (1) establishment policy 3 for total plant wo rk er
employment, and (2) effective practice for workers employed on the specified shift at the time of the
survey. In establishments having varied differentials, the amount applying to a majority is used. In
establishments having s o m e late-shift hours paid at normal rates, a differential is recorded only if it
applies to a majority of the shift hours. A second (evening) shift ends work at or near midnight. A
third (night) shift starts w o r k at or near midnight.
Th e scheduled weekly hours and days of a majority of the first-shift workers in an establish­
me n t are tabulated as applying to all full-time plant or office workers of that establishment. (See
table B-3.) Scheduled weekly hours and days are those which a majority of full-time employees are
expected to w o r k for straight-time or overtime rates.
Paid holidays; paid vacations; and health, insurance, and pension plans are treated statistically
as applying to all full-time plant or office workers if a majority of such workers are eligible or m a y
eventually qualify for the practices listed. (See tables B-4 through B-6.) S u m s of individual items in
tables B- 2 through B - 5 m a y not equal totals because of rounding.

Th e s u m m a r y of vacation plans is a statistical m e a s u r e of vacation provisions rather than a
m e a s u r e of the proportion of full-time workers actually receiving specific benefits. (See table B-5.)
Provisions apply to all plant or office workers in an establishment regardless of length of service.
P a ym en ts on other than a time basis are converted to a time period; for example, 2 percent of
annual earnings are considered equivalent to 1 week's pay. Only basic plains are included. Estimates
exclude vacation bonuses, vacation-savings plans, and "extended" or "sabbatical" benefits beyond basic
plans. Such provisions are typical in the steel, aluminum, and can industries.
Health, insurance, and pension plans for which the employer pays at least a part of the cost
include those (1) underwritten by a co mm er ci al insurance c o m p a n y or nonprofit organization, (2)
provided through a union fund, or (3) paid directly by the employer out of current operating funds or
fr o m a fund set aside for this purpose. (See table B-6.) A n establishment is considered to have
such a plan if the majority of employees are covered even though less than a majority participate
under the plan because employees are required to contribute toward the cost. Excluded are
legally required plans, such as w o rk me n' s compensation, social security, and railroad retirement.
Sickness and accident insurance is limited to that type of insurance under which predetermined
cash payments are m a d e directly to the insured during temporary illness or accident disability.
Information is presented for all such plans to which the employer contributes. However, in N e w
Y o r k and N e w Jersey, which have enacted temporary disability insurance laws requiring employer
contributions,4 plans are included only if the employer (1) contributes m o r e than is legally required,
or (2) provides the employee with benefits which exceed the requirements of the law. Tabulations of
paid sick leave plans are limited to formed plans5 wlaich provide full pay or a proportion of the
worker's pay during absence f r o m wo r k because of illness. Separate tabulations are presented
according to (1) plans which provide full pay and no waiting period, and (2) plans which provide either
partial pay or a waiting period. In addition to the presentation of proportions of workers provided
sickness and accident insurance or paid sick leave, an unduplicated total is shown of workers who
receive either or both types of benefits.
Long t e r m disability insurance plans provide payments to totally disabled employees upon the
expiration of their paid sick leave and/or sickness and accident insurance, or after a predetermined
period of disability (typically 6 months). P a ym en ts are m a d e until the end of the disability, a
m a x i m u m age, or eligibility for retirement benefits. Full or partial payments are almost always
reduced by social security, w o rk me n' s compensation, and private pensions benefits payable to the
disabled employee.

Data on paid holidays are limited to holidays granted annually on a formal basis, which (1)
are provided for in written form, or (2) are established by custom. (See table B-4.) Holidays
ordinarily granted are included even though they m a y fall on a nonworkday and the worker is not
granted another day off. Th e first part of the paid holidays table presents the n u m b e r of whole and
half holidays actually granted. The second part combines whole and half holidays to show total holiday
time. Table B- 4 a reports the incidence of the most c o m m o n paid holidays.1

Ma jo r medical insurance plans protect employees fr o m sickness and injury expenses beyond
the coverage of basic hospitalization, medical, and surgical plans. Typical features of major medical
plans are (1) a "deductible" (e.g., $50) paid by the insured before benefits begin; (2) a coinsurance
feature requiring the insured to pay a portion (e.g., 20 percent) of certain expenses; and (3) stated
dollar m a x i m u m benefits (e.g., $ 10,000 a year). Medical insurance provides complete or partial
payment of doctors' fees. Dental insurance usually covers fillings, extractions, and X-rays. Excluded
are plans which cover only oral surgery or accident damage.
Retirement pension plans provide
payments for the remainder of the worker's life.

1 An establishment was considered as having a p o licy if it met either of the following conditions: (1) Operated late shifts at the tim e o f 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 before the survey, or (2) had provisions in written form to operate late shifts.

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

1 The San Francisco-Oakland Standard Metropolitan Statistical Area, as defined by the Office of M a n a g e m e n t and Budget through February 1974, consists of Alameda, Contra Costa, Marin,
San Francisco, and San Mateo Counties. The "workers within scope of study" estimates shown in this table provide a reasonably accurate description of the size and composition of the labor
force included in the survey. Estimates are not intended, however, for comparison with other e m pl oy me nt indexes to m e as ur e em pl oy me nt trends or levels since (1) planning of w a g e surveys
requires establishment data compiled considerably in advance of the payroll period studied, and (2) small establishments are excluded fr o m the scope of the survey.
2 The 1967 edition of the Standard Industrial Classification Manual wa s used to classify establishments by industry division.
3 Includes all establishments with total em pl o y m e n t at or above the m i n i m u m limitation. All outlets (within the area) of companies inindustries
such as trade, finance,auto repair
service,
and motion picture theaters are considered as 1 establishment.
4 Includes executive, professional, part-time, and other workers excluded f r o m the separate plant and office categories.
5 Abbreviated to "public utilities" in the A - and B-series tables. Taxicabs and services incidentalto water transportation we re excluded.
Th e local transitsystems in the
San FranciscoOakland area are municipally operated and excluded by definition fr o m the scope of the study.
6 Abbreviated to "finance" in the A - and B-series tables.
7 Estimate relates to real estate establishments only. W o r k e r s fr o m the entire industry division are represented in the A-series tables, but f r o m the real estate portion only in "all

A n establishment is considered to have a contract covering all plant or office workers
if a majority of such workers are covered by a l a bo r- ma na ge me nt agreement. Therefore,
all other plant or office workers are em ployed in establishments that either do not have
labor-management contracts in effect, or have contracts that apply to fewer than half of
their plant or office workers. Estimates are not necessarily representative of the extent
to which all workers in the area m a y be covered by the provisions of la bo r- ma na ge me nt
agreements, because small establishments are excluded and the industrial scope of the survey
is limited.

Appendix B. Occupational Descriptions
Th e primary purpose of preparing job descriptions for the Bureau's wa g e surveys is to assist its field staff in classifying into appropriate
occupations workers w h o are employed under a variety of payroll titles and different wo r k arrangements f r o m establishment to establishment and
f r o m area to area. This permits the grouping of occupational wa g e rates representing comparable job content. Because of this emphasis on
interestablishment and interarea comparability of occupational content, the Bureau's job descriptions m a y differ significantly f r o m 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; and handicapped, part-time, temporary, and probationary workers.

OFFICE
BILLER, M A C H I N E

CLERKS, ACCO UN TI NG

Prepares statements, bills, and invoices on a machine other than an ordinary or electromatic
typewriter. M a y also keep records as to billings or shipping charges or perform other clerical wo rk
incidental to billing operations. F o r w a g e study purposes, billers, machine, are classified by type of
machine, as follows:

Perf or ms one or m o r e accounting clerical tasks such as posting to registers and ledgers;
reconciling bank accounts; verifying the internal consistency, completeness, and mathematical accuracy
of accounting documents; assigning prescribed accounting distribution codes; examining and verifying
for clerical accuracy various types of reports, lists, calculations, posting, etc.; or preparing simple or
assisting in preparing m o r e complicated journal vouchers. M a y w o r k in either a manual or automated
accounting system.

Biller, ma ch in e (billing machine). Uses a special billing machine (combination typing and
adding machine) to prepjwe bills and invoices fr o m customers' purchase orders, internally prepared
orders, shipping m e m o r a n d u m s , etc. Usually involves application of predetermined discounts and
shipping charges and entry of necessary extensions, which m a y or m a y not be computed on the billing
machine, and totals which are automatically accumulated by machine. The operation usually involves a
large n u m b e r of carbon copies of the bill being prepared and is often done on a fanfold machine.
Biller, ma ch in e (bookkeeping machine). Uses a bookkeeping machine (with or without a
typewriter keyboard) to prepare customers' bills as part of the accounts receivable operation.
Generally involves the simultaneous entry of figures on customers' ledger record. Th e machine
automatically accumulates figures on a n u m b e r of vertical columns and computes and usually prints
automatically the debit or credit balances. Does not involve a knowledge of bookkeeping. W o r k s fr om
uniform and standard types of sales and credit slips.

Th e w o r k requires a knowledge of clerical methods and office practices and procedures which
relates to the clerical processing and recording of transactions and accounting information. With
experience, the wo rk er typically b e c o m e s familiar with the bookkeeping and accounting terms and
procedures used in the assigned work, but is not required to have a knowledge of the formal principles
of bookkeeping and accounting.
Positions are classified into levels on the basis of the following definitions.
Glass A. Un de r general supervision, performs accounting clerical operations which require
the application of experience and judgment, for example, clerically processing complicated or
nonrepetitive accounting transactions, selecting a m o n g a substantial variety of prescribed accounting
codes and classifications, or tracing transactions though previous accounting actions to determine
source of discrepancies. M a y be assisted by one or m o r e class B accounting clerks.

BOOKKEEPING-MACHINE OPERATOR
Operates a bookkeeping ma ch in e (with or without a typewriter keyboard) to keep a record of
business transactions.
Class A . Keeps a set of records requiring a knowledge of and experience in basic bookkeeping
principles, and familiarity with the structure of the particular accounting system used. Determines
proper records and distribution of debit and credit items to be used in each phase of the work. M a y
prepare consolidated reports, balance sheets, and other records by hand.
Class B . Keeps a record of one or m o r e phases or sections of a set of records usually
requiring little knowledge of basic bookkeeping. Phases or sections include accounts payable, payroll,
customers' accounts (not including a simple type of billing described under biller, machine), cost
distribution, expense distribution, inventory control, etc. M a y check or assist in preparation of trial
balances and prepare control sheets for the accounting department.

Revised occupational descriptions for switchboard operator; switchboard operator-re­
ceptionist; machine-tool operator, toolroom; and tool and die m a k e r are being introduced this year.
T h e y are the result of the Bureau's policy of periodically reviewing area wa g e survey occupational

and procedures related to the wo r k of the supervisor.
