Establishment plans which meet only the legal requirements are excluded from these data, but those under which (1) employers contribute more than is legally required or (2) benefits exceed those specified in the State law are included. In Rhode Island, benefits are paid out of a State fund to which only employees contribute. In each of the other three States, benefits are paid either from a State fund or through a private plan: State fund financing: In California, only employees contribute to the State fund; in New Jersey, employees and employers contribute; in New York, employees contribute up to a specified maximum and employers pay the difference between the employees' share and the total contribution required.

Private plan financing: In California and New Jersey, employees cannot be required to contribute more than they would if they were covered by the State fund; in New York, employees can agree to contribute more if the State rules that the additional contribution is commensurate with the benefit provided. Federal legislation (Railroad Unemployment Insurance Act) provides temporary disability insurance benefits to railroad workers for illness or injury, whether work-connected or not. The legislation requires that employers bear the entire cost of the insurance. 4 An establishment is considered as having a formal plan if it specifies at least the minimum number of days of sick leave available to each employee. Such a plan need not be written, but informal sick leave allowances determined on an individual basis are excluded. H ealth, in s u r a n c e , and p e n sio n plans (table B - 6 ) .

The "w orkers within scope of study" estim ates shown in this table provide a reasonably accurate description of the size and com position of the la bor fo rce included in the survey. Estim ates are not intended, how ever, fo r com parison with other employm ent indexes to m easure employm ent trends or levels since (1) planning of wage surveys requires establishm ent data com piled con siderably in advance of the p a yroll period studied, and (2) sm all establishm ents are excluded from the scope of the survey. 2 The 1967 edition o f the Standard Industrial C lassification Manual was used to cla ss ify establishm ents by industry division. 3 Includes all establishm ents with total em ploym ent at or above the minimum lim itation. A ll outlets (within the area) of com panies in industries such as trade, finance, auto repair s e rv ice , and m otion picture theaters are con sid ered as 1 establishm ent. 4 Includes executive, profession a l, p art-tim e, and other w orkers excluded fro m the separate plant and o ffice ca tegories. 5 A bbreviated to "public u tilities" in the A - and B -s e r ie s tables.

Separate presentation of data is not made for one o r m ore of the follow ing reasons: (1) Employment is too sm all to provide enough data to m e rit separate study, (2) the sam ple was not designed initially to perm it separate presentation, (3) r e s p o n s e w a s insufficient o r i n a d e q u a t e to p e r m i t s e p a r a t e presentation, and (4) the r e is possibility of d i s c l o s u r e of individual e s t a b l i s h m e n t data. 7 W orkers from this entire division are represented in estim ates for "all industries" and "nonm anufacturing" in the A -s e r ie s tables, but fro m the rea l estate portion only in estim ates fo r "all in d u stries" and "nonm anufacturing" in the B -se rie s tables.

T h erefore, all other plant or office w orkers are em ployed in establishm ents that either do not have labor-m anagem ent contracts in effect, o r have contracts that apply to few er than half of their plant o r office w o rk e rs. E stim ates are not n e c e ss a r ily representative of the extent to which all w orkers in the area m ay be cov ered by the p rovisions o f labor-m anagem ent agreem ents, because sm all establishm ents are excluded and the industrial scope o f the survey is lim ited.
