Preface
This bulletin, primarily prepared for historical and research purposes,
is based on the annual area wage survey program of the Bureau of Labor
Statistics. The program provides information on occupational earnings, supple­
mentary wage benefits, and establishment practices for individual Standard
Metropolitan Statistical Areas of the United States (excluding Alaska and Hawaii).
In each area surveyed, earnings data are collected annually; related establish­
ment practices and benefits are obtained every third year. Comprehensive
reports on individual surveys usually are published within 4 months of the
payroll period studied. Data for all areas surveyed were summarized in Area
Wage Surveys, Selected Metropolitan Areas, 1977.
This bulletin provides national and regional estimates, projected from
individual area surveys. It also summarizes establishment practices, related
benefits, and labor-management agreement coverage.
Area wage information is used for many purposes, including wage and
salary administration, collective bargaining, and assistance in determining plant




location. The U.S. Department of Labor uses these area survey results to
make wage determinations under the Service Contract Act of 1965.
This bulletin was prepared in the Bureau's Division of Occupational
Wage Structures. The analysis was prepared by John H. Cox, Claudia Day,
Sabrina D. Lee, and Robert W. Van Giezen, under the direction of Kenneth J.
Hoffmann. The Bureau's Assistant Regional Commissioners for Operations
directed data collection.
The area wage surveys could not have been accomplished without the
cooperation of the many firms whose wage and salary data provided the b^s'is
for the statistical information in this bulletin. The Bureau wishes to express
sincere appreciation for the cooperation received.

Introduction
Chapter III, Wage Differences Among Areas, provides interarea pay
comparisons for 73 metropolitan areas surveyed from January through December
1977. Comparisons are made for four occupational groups— office clerical,
electronic data processing, skilled maintenance, and unskilled plant workers—
using constant occupational employment weights and adjusting data for dif­
ferences in survey timing among areas. Tabulations include separate detail for
manufacturing and the combined nonmanufacturing industry divisions covered by
the surveys. This chapter also includes more limited data for 95 additional
areas from a companion wage survey program which was conducted to help
establish pay rates under the Service Contract Act of 1965.

This bulletin provides national and regional estimates of occupational
earnings, supplementary wage benefits, and establishment practices for workers
in the Nation's Standard Metropolitan Statistical A re a s1 in 1977. It also
presents data on earnings trends and interarea pay comparisons.
Following is a brief description of the types of data presented in each
of the chapters and appendixes:
Chapter I, Occupational Earnings, provides national and
mates of straight-time hourly or weekly earnings for workers
selected from the following categories common to a variety of
and nonmanufacturing industries; Office clerical; professional
maintenance, toolroom, and powerplant; and material movement

regional esti­
in occupations
manufacturing
and technical;
and custodial.

Chapter IV, Establishment Practices and Supplementary Wage Provi­
sions, presents information on late-shift pay provisions and practices for plant
workers in manufacturing, and data for plant workers and office workers on
weekly work schedules, paid holidays, paid vacations, and health, insurance,
and pension plans. The text discusses differences in provisions and practices by
establishment size.

Separate detail is presented for major industry divisions, e.g., manufac­
turing, public utilities, and retail trade. Tables refer to an average month of
reference of July 1977 for data collected during the period January through
December 1977.

Chapter V, Labor-Management Agreement Coverage, provides estimates
of the proportions of plant workers and office workers in metropolitan area
establishments having labor-management agreements covering a majority of
these workers. It also presents estimates of the extent of coverage by region,
industry division, and establishment size.

Chapter II, Trends of Occupational Earnings, presents wage trend
information for five occupational groups; Office cTerical, electronic data
processing, industrial nurses, skilled maintenance, and unskilled plant workers.
Information is presented on changes in current dollar and real earnings
from 1975 to 1977.

Chapter I. Occupational Earnings

This chapter provides occupational earnings information for all metro­
politan areas combined and for four broad regions. Tables A - l through A -30
present straight-time earnings data for selected occupations: Office clerical;
professional and technical; maintenance, toolroom, and powerplant; and material
movement and custodial. Wherever possible, separate detail is furnished for
each of the six industry divisions studied: Manufacturing; transportation,
communication, and other public utilities (referred to as public utilities);
wholesale trade; retail trade; finance, insurance, and real estate (referred to
as finance); and selected services.

differences in employment size of establishments and degree of unionization
in these industries. Wage levels tend to be higher in large than in small
establishments, and in union than in nonunion establishments. 3 As shown in
text table 2, the higher wage public utilities and manufacturing industries
employed a larger proportion of workers in large establishments than the
lower wage services, retail trade, and finance industries. Wholesale trade,
however, which provided wages near the all-industry average had, by far, the
largest proportion of workers in small establishments and the smallest propor­
tion in large establishments. (Chapter V of this bulletin provides an analysis
of labor-management agreement coverage by industry division and size of
establishment.)

To observe wage patterns by region and industry division, pay relatives
were developed for office clerical, electronic data processing, skilled main­
tenance, and unskilled plant occupations. (Pay relatives are the average
straight-time earnings for a group of occupations in the region or industry
division expressed as a percent of the average for the job group in all metro­
politan areas combined.) Occupations making up the four job groups are listed
in appendix A.

For all industry divisions combined, average weekly earnings of office
workers were highest in the West and lowest in the South, with about 11
percent separating the two regions (text table 1.) There was little difference
between the national level and averages for the Northeast and North Central
regions.

While average weekly earnings were lowest in finance, average hourly
earnings were lowest in retail trade. Among industry divisions, finance had
the shortest average workweek, 37.9 hours; retail trade recorded the second
longest, 39.2 hours— nearly matching the 39.3 in manufacturing (table B-2).

Average weekly earnings of office clerical workers ranged from $ 1 1 9 . 5 0
for file clerks performing routine filing (Class C) to $ 2 0 8 . 0 0 for secretaries.2
Averages for most other occupations were within the $ 5 0 spread of $ 1 3 5
to $ 1 8 5 .
These surveywide averages are influenced b y a variety of factors
such as industry, geographic location, unionization, size of establishment, and
workers' length of service. No attempt was made to isolate all factors that
affect earnings, but occupational wage levels by region and industry are
compared for office clericals in text table 1.

Professional and technical occupations
Earnings of electronic data processing (EDP) workers varied consider­
ably by occupation, industry division, and region. Average weekly earnings
ranged from $ 174.00 for beginning computer operators (Class C) to $402.50
for computer systems analysts solving the most difficult problems (Class A).
Class A systems analysts and programmers averaged about $ 100 more than
Class C analysts and programmers. Class A computer operators averaged
about $75 more than Class C operators.

As with office clerical occupations but to a lesser degree, average
earnings for electronic data processing occupations were highest in the West
and lowest in the South; highest in public utilities and lowest in finance (text
table 3). Due to the wide differential between these two industry divisions,
Class B and C workers in public utility EDP jobs generally averaged more than
the next higher class in finance; this relationship held even after allowing for
the shorter weekly work schedule in finance (text table 4).

Maintenance, toolroom, and powerplant occupations
Average hourly earnings of 14 maintenance, toolroom, and powerplant
occupations ranged from $5.89 for maintenance trades helpers to $8.04 for
millwrights. The lowest average hourly rate a m o n g maintenance crafts
was $7.05 for painters. Nationally, tool and die makers and machine tool
operators had the same average hourly earnings ($7.83), but the historical
earnings advantage for tool and die maker was still evident in each of the four
regions. (The apparent inconsistency is due to the substantially larger propor­
tion of machine-tool operators in the highest paying region.) Averages for the
powerplant occupations were $6.25 for boiler tenders and $7.35 for stationary
engineers.

Four out of five skilled maintenance workers were employed in manu­
facturing. Consequently, the pay relatives in text table 5 are limited to all
industries combined and manufacturing. According to both sets of relatives,
the North Central region barely edged out the West as the highest paying
region at about 6 percent above the national average. The South and Northeast
fell less than 10 percent below the norm. The maximum spread between regions
was 13 percentage points for all industries combined (93 to 106) and 14 points
for manufacturing (91 to 105).

Data do not m eet publication criteria.

Other professional and technical occupations studied included four
levels of drafters ($ 176.50 to $305.50 per week); three levels of electronics
technicians ($210.00 to $305.50); and registered industrial nurses ($258.00).
Manufacturing employed a majority of the workers in each of these jobs except
the lowest level of drafters and Class B electronics technicians, but public
utilities again led in pay. Salary levels of drafters and electronics technicians
were generally lowest in the South and highest in the North Central region,
while industrial nurses recorded their lowest average earnings in the Northeast
and their highest earnings in the West.

Material movement and custodial occupations
All-industry averages for material movement and custodial occupations
varied widely— from $3.35 an hour for guards and watchmen to $7.38 an hour
for tractor-trailer truckdrivers operating locally. Janitors, porters, and
cleaners, numerically the most important job surveyed, averaged $3.90 an

5

hour or $1.51 less than material handling laborers, the other occupation used
later in this bulletin to compute unskilled plant worker pay relatives. Slightly
over half of the janitors were employed in services, mostly in janitorial firms.
Two out of five janitors in services averaged within 30 cents of the Federal
minimum wage ($2.30 per hour at the time of the survey). Slightly over half
of the laborers, on the other hand, were employed in manufacturing, and the
rate of pay for only 1 out of 100 was within 30 cents of the Federal minimum.

Of the four broad occupational groups studied, pay levels between
regions and industries varied most for unskilled plant workers. The maximum
spread of 42 percent between the North Central region and the South contrasted
sharply with the 14 percent for skilled maintenance, 11 percent for office
clerical, and 9 percent for EDP workers. Among industries, nationwide pay
for unskilled plant workers varied even more than all-industry regional differ­
ences, with public utilities paying 65 percent more on the average, than
services. The maximum spread among industries for office clerical was 38
percent and for EDP workers, 23 percent.

Footnotes
"Finance, insurance, and real estate" is abbreviated to finance.
For definitions of regions, see footnote 3 to the table in appendix A.
6 Earnings data relate only to workers in establishments which pro­
vided sex identification.
7 Excludes premium pay
for overtime and for work on weekends,
holidays, and late shifts.

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

the same or less than the rate shown. The middle range is defined by two

Chapter II. Trends of Occupational Earnings

This chapter provides estimates of changes for five occupational
groups in average straight-time hourly earnings between July 1976 and July 1977:
Office clerical; electronic data processing; industrial nurses; skilled mainte­
nance; and unskilled plant. Estimates of percent change are provided both in
current and constant dollars, the latter reflect changes in buying power.

These measures of change are based on employee earnings data
collected in 70 areas surveyed annually at various times throughout the year.
Data from individual areas were weighted and combined to represent all
metropolitan areas in the contiguous 48 States for July. Appendix A describes
the methods used in these computations.

M anuf acturing

From July 1976 to July 1977, straight-time earnings generally increased
less for white-collar workers than for blue-collar workers
(table A -31).
Earnings rose 7.0 percent for electronic data processing (EDP) workers, 7.2
percent for office clericals, and 8.2 percent for industrial nurses. In com­
parison, increases for the two blue-collar groups studied were 7.9 percent for
unskilled plant workers and 9 . 0 percent for skilled maintenance workers.

Nationwide, wage increases in manufacturing ranged from 7.4 percent
for EDP workers to 9.0 percent for skilled maintenance and unskilled plant
workers. Corresponding increases in nonmanufacturing were lower by a range
of 0.6 percentage point for EDP workers to 1.9 percentage points for unskilled
plant workers. This pattern of smaller increases in nonmanufacturing was
found in three of the four regions----Northeast, South, and North Central States;
in the West, however, nonmanufacturing increases were slightly larger for the
three white-collar groups. (Comparisons were not made for skilled maintenance
workers because of insufficient data in nonmanufacturing.)

Wage increases in small or medium-size areas (fewer than 1 million
inhabitants) were generally equal to or larger than increases in areas with 1
million or more inhabitants. As shown in text table 7, this pattern fits all
occupational groups at the all-industries and manufacturing levels. In non­
manufacturing, however, it fits only the office clerical and electronic data
processing groups.
Changes in wages seldom equal changes in buying power. To reflect
the latter— i.e., changes in real earnings— constant-dollar increases were
estimated by adjusting for movements in the Consumer Price Index (CPI).
The CPI rose 6.7 percent from July 1976 to July 1977 and 5.4 percent in the
previous 12-month period. As shown in Chart 1, current-dollar increases for
most occupational groups were nearly equal during the two periods, but buying
power increased at a markedly lower rate for 1976—
77.

Changes (trends) in earnings are also estimated by the Bureau in other
statistical series. The Employment Cost Index (ECI), initiated in September
1975, measures changes in the price of a standardized mix of labor services
(occupations) much like the CPI measures a fixed-weight market basket.
Another series, the Hourly Earnings Index, measures changes in earnings
of production and nonsupervisory workers by broad industry division, but
in a nonoccupational context. (See text table 8 for selected data from these
two series.)

Notwithstanding differences between methods and scope of the ECI and
AWS surveys, both series show some parallel patterns in wage trends between
1975 and 1977: In both, increases for blue-collar workers have been larger than
increases for white-collar workers; increases for workers in manufacturing have
exceeded increases for workers in nonmanufacturing; increases among the

While the two series reflected similar patterns, percentage increases
in the AWS series have been slightly larger than those in the ECI. Differences
in industrial scope partially explain the difference in magnitude. For example,
construction, and health and educational services had smaller than average wage
increases during the periods compared; both are included in the ECI but not in
the AWS series.

Analysis of changes in the Hourly Earnings Index for all workers (total
private nonfarm) and workers in manufacturing and nonmanufacturing industries
reveals a similar pattern to that found in the ECI and AWS series between 197 5
and 1977. Percentage increases were larger for workers in manufacturing than
for workers in nonmanufacturing industries, and the differences between the
1975— and 1976-77 increases were relatively small.

Chapter III. Wage Differences Among Areas

This chapter provides wage comparisons for 73 areas 4 surveyed in the
Bureau's Area Wage Survey (AWS) program and 95 areas surveyed under
contract to the Employment Standards Administration for use in administering
the Service Contract Act (SCA). The act requires contractors providing services
to the government to pay the prevailing wage rate of the area. The AWS
surveys, broader in occupational coverage, generally provide data for all
industries combined, manufacturing, and nonmanufacturing for four occupational
groups— office clerical, electronic data processing, skilled maintenance, and
unskilled plant workers (table A -32). The SCA surveys provide only all­
industries estimates and do not provide estimates for the electronic data
processing group (table A -33).
Pay relatives, computed by dividing average straight-time earnings in
an area by the average for all metropolitan areas combined, were used to
compare wages in this chapter. Each area was assumed to have the national
occupational mix and, because areas were surveyed at different times during
1977, adjustments were made for differences in survey timing among areas.
Appendix A includes a more detailed description of the methods used.

It should be noted that if office clerical and electronic data processing
pay relatives were based on hourly rather than weekly earnings, some changes
in ranking would occur. For example, using average weekly earnings, the pay
relative for office clerical workers in New York is 12 percentage points lower
than for Detroit (106 versus 118). However, in New York the predominant
clerical work schedule was 35 hours and in Detroit, 40 hours. When average
hourly earnings are compared, New York's relative is only 2 percentage points
lower than Detroit's (114 compared to 116).

Area wage survey pay relatives
The highest and lowest AWS pay relatives are listed in text table 9.
The highest relatives generally were found in areas with large concentrations
of workers in the higher paying manufacturing industries, such as transportation
equipment (Detroit, Saginaw, and Seattle); electric and electronic equipment (San
Jose and Anaheim); and machinery (Davenport and San Jose). Exceptions to
this pattern were New York and San Francisco, with over 70 percent of the
workers employed in nonmanufacturing industries.

Chapter IV. Establishment Practices and Supplementary Wage Provisions

This chapter provides information on establishment practices and
supplementary wage provisions for plant and office workers obtained during
a 3 -year period (tables B -l through B-5). Data were collected for over one-third
of the workers in calendar 1977, about one-sixth in calendar year 1976, and
nearly one-half in calendar year 1975. In this chapter, data for the 1975—
77
period will be referred to as 1977 data.
For the first time in this series of summary bulletins, establishment
practices and supplementary provisions were compared by establishment size. 5
Generally, it was found that large establishments provided more and better
benefits than smaller establishments. In examining these relationships, it
should be kept in mind that they also reflect factors such as differences in
industry mix or in the degree of unionization.

As shown in text table 12, provisions for late shifts covered virtually
all plant workers in establishments employing 1, 000 workers or more but only
two-thirds of those in establishments having fewer than 250. Types of differ­
entials also varied substantially by establishment size. Cents-per-hour and
percentage differentials were equally common in large establishments, but
cents-per-hour differentials covered over 5 times more workers than percent
differentials in small establishments.

Late-shift pay provisions and practices in manufacturing
Late-shift provisions. Most manufacturing plant workers were em ­
ployed in establishments operating late shifts or having formal provisions for
late-shift operations (table B -l) . Eighty-eight percent of the workers were
employed in establishments with provisions for second shifts and 77 percent
in establishments with third-shift provisions. Such provisions nearly always
included a pay differential above first-shift rates. Only 5 percent of the
workers were employed in establishments with a policy of no pay differential
for second-shift work and 1 percent were in establishments with a policy of
no pay differential for third-shift work.
A uniform cents-per-hour differential, applying to over half of the
workers, was the most common type of differential. For second shift, the
average pay differential was 16.5 cents and for third shift, 21.3 cents. About
a fourth of the workers were covered by provisions for a uniform percentage
addition to the day rates. This type of differential, averaging 7.5 percent for
second shift and 10.2 percent for third shift, was more advantageous to workers
for two reasons. First, money produced by common percentage differentials
was generally larger than common cents-per-hour differentials. For example,
the average 7.5 percent differential for second shifts applied to a day rate
of $5.00 per hour equates to 37.5 cents or more than double the average 16.5
cents-per-hour differential for second shifts. Second, percentage differentials
automatically increase money outputs as day rates increase. Cents-per-hour
differentials, on the other hand, must be increased independently, and such
adjustments are usually less frequent than changes in basic day rates.

politan areas actually were employed on late shifts in 1977; almost a fifth percent of each group were on a 4 -day week, and about 4 percent of the plant
were on second shifts and a twelfth on third. Over half of the 2 million workers were scheduled to work 5 V2 days or more.
late-shift workers were employed in large establishments, a third in mediumsize plants, and a sixth in plants with fewer than 250 workers.
The proportion of workers employed on late shifts has increased slowly
since 1961, the first year for which data are available. In 1961, 16 percent
of the plant workers were employed on second shifts and 6 percent on third
shifts. 6 The size of cents-per-hour differentials has also increased, while
average percentage differentials have decreased for both shifts.

Weekly hours. The 4 0 -hour work schedule which has remained the
most common applies to 82 percent of the plant and 58 percent of the office
workers (table B -2). Eleven percent of the plant and 42 percent of the office
workers were scheduled for fewer hours, usually 35 or 3 1 x/z; the rest exceeded
40 hours.
The 37Vz-hour week applied to significant proportions of office workers
in all regions, whereas 35 hours was widely found in the Northeast, particularly
the New York metropolitan area. Of the 470, 000 office workers on 35 hours,
400, 000 were in the Northeast; 300, 000 were in the New York area.

Except for office workers in the Northeast, where weekly work
schedules averaged nearly 3 7 V2 hours, there was little variation among regions
in the average length of the work schedule: Approximately 40 hours per week
for plant workers (39.6 in the Northeast to 40.3 in the South) and 39 hours
for office workers (39.1 in the South to 39.5 in the West).
This observation also held when work schedules were analyzed by size
of establishment and industry division. The three establishment-size classes
studied varied by
less than a quarter of an hour. Among industries,

workers averaged from 39.1 hours in services to 40.3 hours in wholesale
trade; office workers averaged from 37.9 hours in finance to 39.3 hours in
manufacturing.
Paid holidays, generally 6 to 12 a year, were provided to 95 percent
of the plant workers and to nearly all of the office workers in metropolitan
areas in 1977. The most common provision, 10 days a year, covered almost

Holiday provisions were least liberal in retail trade in the South.
The most liberal provisions were found in manufacturing for both groups of
workers; and in the North Central states for plant workers and in the Northeast
for office workers. In all instances, the average number of holidays increased
with establishment size (text table 14).

Paid vacations

Vacation provisions varied considerably by size of establishment,
especially for plant workers. Plant workers in establishments employing 1, 000
workers or more were twice as likely as those in small establishments to
receive two weeks of vacation after one year of service, or three weeks
after five years. Chances of receiving five weeks or more after 30 years of
service were four times as great in large as in small establishments (text
table 15).

In 1977, nearly all plant and office workers were employed in estab­
lishments providing paid vacations. Typical provisions for plant workers
were 1 week's pay after 1 year of service; 2 weeks' pay after 2 years; 3
Over the years, vacation benefits have been extended and service

workers were 1 week' s pay after 6 months and 2 weeks' pay after 1 year, requirements reduced. For example, the proportion of plant workers eventually

workers had major medical protection for expenses beyond the normal coverage

coverage were first made for all metropolitan areas. In the manufacturing
sector, dental insurance has become widespread in the primary metals,
electrical and nonelectrical machinery, motor vehicles, and aircraft industries.
In nonmanufacturing, public utilities lead in this benefit with about half of the
workers covered. Wholesale trade provided dental insurance to about one-third
of the plant workers and three-tenths of the office; elsewhere the benefit was
provided to no more than about one-fourth of the workers. Regionally, dental
insurance coverage for all industries was highest in the West (52 percent for
plant and 50 percent for office) and lowest in the South (19 percent and 21
percent).
Over four-fifths of the plant and office workers were covered by formal
salary continuation plans during absence due to sickness or accident. Sickness
and accident insurance covering 6 of 10 workers, was the most common type
of plan for plant workers; sick leave plans covering 8 of 10, were the most
common for office workers. About a sixth of the plant workers and a third
of the office workers had coverage under both types of plans. Under dual
coverage, sickness and accident insurance generally provided payments after
the depletion of sick leave benefits.

Retirement pension plans, 8 designed to provide regular payments to
retirees for life, were available to 79 percent of the plant workers and to 86
percent of the office workers. When data for this series were first compiled
in 1961, the proportions of workers covered were 67 percent and 77 percent,
respectively. Although the gap has narrowed, differences between these groups
are substantial, especially in the service industries and the South where the
incidence of pension plans is lowest (table B -5).
With few exceptions, health, insurance, and pension plans covered
greater proportions of workers in large establishments than in small estab­
lishments (text table 16). This was particularly evident for long-term disability,
dental, and sickness and accident insurance; sick leave with partial pay or a
waiting period; and retirement pension plans.
The extent to which employee health, insurance, and pension plans
were noncontributory (totally financed by employers) is indicated in text table 17.
Noncontributory plans were predominant in all benefit areas surveyed, and
establishment size had little bearing on the method of financing used. Because
the level of these benefits was not studied, the merits of noncontributory plans
versus contributory plans could not be measured.

For office workers, sick leave was clearly more widespread than
sickness and accident insurance in all industry divisions and the four broad
regions. For plant workers, however, the pattern was mixed. Sickness and
accident insurance applied to 73 percent of the plant workers in manufacturing,
while sick leave plans covered at least as high a proportion as insurance in
nonmanufacturing. Likewise, sickness and accident insurance prevailed for
plant workers in the Northeast, South, and North Central regions, while sick
leave prevailed in the West. (The incidence of informal sick leave, which also
varies by industry and region, was not studied.)

Footnotes
1 For a definition of regions, see footnote 3 to appendix table 1.
2 Information on establishment practices was obtained every third
year on a rotating cycle in most areas. Data for over one-third of the
workers were collected in surveys conducted in calendar year 1977; about
one-sixth in surveys conducted in calendar year 1976; and nearly one-half
in surveys conducted in calendar year 1975.
3 Includes establishments currently operating late shifts and estab­
lishments with formal provisions covering late shifts even though they were
not currently operating late shifts.
4 Includes differentials other than those shown separately.
5 Less than 0.05 percent.
6 Includes shift differentials such as pay at regular rate for more
hours than worked, a paid lunch period not given to first-sh ift workers,
and a flat sum per shift. Most third-shift workers in the West were employed
in establishments which provided differentials of a full day1s pay for reduced
hours plus a uniform cents-per-hour addition.
7 Scheduled hours are the weekly hours which a majority of the
full-time workers were expected to work whether they were paid straight-time
or overtime rates.
8 Transportation, communication, and other public utilities.
9 Finance, insurance, and real estate. Data are not shown separately
for plant workers in this industry group. Plant workers in real estate,
however, are included in "a ll, " nonmanufacturing, and regional data.




Includes weekly schedules other than those presented separately.
1 Less than 0.5 percent.
1
1 All combinations of full and half days that add up to the same
2
amount are combined; for example, the proportion of workers receiving a
total of 10 days includes those with 10 full days and no half days, 9 full
days and 2 half days, 8 full days and 4 half days, and so on. Proportions
then were cumulated.
13 Includes basic plans only. Excludes plans such as vacation-savings
and those plans which offer "extended" or "sabbatical" benefits beyond
basic plans to workers having qualifying lengths of service. Such provisions
are typical in the steel, aluminum, and can industries.
1 Estimates listed after each type of benefit include only plans for
4
which the employer pays at least some part of the cost. "Noncontributory
plans" include only those plans for which the employer pays all the cost.
Excluded are legally required plans such as workers' disability compensa­
tion, social security, and railroad retirement.
15 Unduplicated total of workers receiving sick leave or sickness
andaccident insurance shown separately. Sick leave plans establish the
minimum number of days' pay that each employee can expect and exclude
informal sick leave allowances determined on an individual basis.

Chapter V. Labor-Management Agreement Coverage

Labor-management agreements covered about six-tenths of the plant
workers and one-eighth of the office workers.
Since surveys exclude non­
metropolitan areas, some industries, and small establishments (appendix A),
these estimates do not reflect labor-management agreement coverage of the
Nation's total work force. 9
Agreement coverage varied among regions, industry divisions, and
size of establishments. Text table 18 shows, for example, that the proportion
of plant workers covered by agreements in the North Central region (75 percent)
was double the proportion in the South (38 percent). Agreement coverage which
varied among industries even more than among regions, ranged from 29 percent
in retail trade to 9 2 percent in public utilities for plant workers, and from 2
percent in finance to 61 percent in public utilities for office workers. Public
utilities, with only 1 2 percent of the office workers in scope of the survey,
had 59 percent of the covered office workers. (For plant workers, the
corresponding proportions were less dramatic— 9 percent and 15 percent.)
Dividing all establishments within the scope of the area wage surveys
into three employment size groups, a pattern similar to that found in other BLS
surveys generally emerged: The more persons employed in an establishment,
the greater the degree of unionization. 0
In establishments employing fewer
than 250 workers, agreements covered 46 percent of the plant and 5 percent of
the office workers; in establishments in the middle size class— those employing
between 250 and 999 workers, 58 percent and 8 percent; and in those employing
1,000 workers or more, 74 percent and 22 percent. (Text table 19.) This
relationship, found in each region, reflects, at least in part, the industrial
composition of the three employment-size classes compared. Public utilities,
for example, characterized by large establishments, was the most highly
unionized industry division studied; manufacturing, characterized by establish­
ments averaging nearly as large, was next in contract coverage. Together,
they accounted for 75 percent of the plant workers and 56 percent of the office
workers in establishments with 1,000 workers or more. These proportions
dropped to 51 percent for plant and 27 percent for office in the smallest size
classification analyzed.
Even within industry divisions the positive relationship between employ­
ment size and degree of unionization was found. Again referring to public
utilities, 80 percent of the plant workers in the smallest of the three size
classes analyzed were covered by bargaining agreements; the coverage rose
to 92 percent in the intermediate size; and to 9 6 percent for the largest size.
For office workers in public utilities, coverage nearly tripled as establishment
size increased— 26 percent; 51 percent; and 73 percent. Manufacturing displayed
similar progressions, but at the 60-80 percent range for plant workers and 5-15
percent range for office workers. Exceptions to this 3-tier progression were
plant workers in wholesale trade; and office workers in wholesale trade, finance,
and services— where agreement coverage fell well below 1 0 percent.
Within each industry division and region, establishment size was
examined. The pattern of higher labor-management agreement coverage associ­
ated with larger establishment size continued according to unpublished results.

Appendix A.
Scope and Method of Survey
Data in this bulletin represent (1) the 262 Standard Metropolitan
Statistical Areas (SMSA's) of the United States (excluding Alaska and Hawaii),
as defined by the Office of Management and Budget through February 1974,
and (2) four broad economic regions. They are derived from information
obtained from surveys conducted annually in 70 areas selected as a sample.
Data on area wages and related benefits are obtained by personal visits of Bureau
field representatives at 3 - year intervals. In each of the intervening years,
information on employment and occupational earnings is collected by combination
of personal visit, mail questionnaire, and- telephone interview from establish­
ments participating in the previous survey.
In each area, data are obtained from representative establishments
within six broad industry divisions: Manufacturing; transportation, communi­
cation, and other public utilities; wholesale trade; retail trade; finance, in­
surance, and real estate; and services. Major industry groups excluded from
these studies are government operations and the construction and extractive
industries. The exclusion of government significantly affects the public utilities
division because municipally operated utilities are thereby excluded.
Within each of the six major industry divisions, establishments having
fewer than 50 workers are omitted because of insufficient employment in the
occupations studied. In the 13 largest areas, the minimum establishment size
included in the survey is 1 0 0 employees in manufacturing, public utilities, and
retail trade. These areas are Boston, Chicago, Cleveland, Dallas—
Fort Worth,
Detroit, Los Angeles—
Long Beach, Newark, New York, Philadelphia, Pittsburgh,
St. Louis, San Francisco—
Oakland, and Washington.
Each area survey relates to a particular payroll month of reference
but surveys are conducted at different times throughout the year. An average
month of reference for the combined wage data of all surveys is calculated as
follows:
1. Total employment within the scope of the survey in each area is
multiplied by the area weight (see sampling procedures). These
products are combined for areas having the same payroll month of
reference.
2. Aggregates obtained in step 1 are multiplied by a factor as­
signed to each payroll month. For example, factors assigned are,
January=l, February=2, etc., through Decembers 12.
3.

The sum of the products obtained in step 2 is divided by the sum of
the aggregates obtained in step 1 .

Thus, for two survey areas— one having 50,000 area-weighted workers and a
May 1977 reference date and the other having 100,000 workers and an August
1977 date— the average month of reference would be July 1977.

Information on establishment practices, supplementary wage benefits,
and coverage by labor-management agreements is obtained only every third
year in each area. Hence, if information on these items was not collected in a
survey conducted during 1977, the most recent survey in which such data were
collected was used to derive estimates presented in the series B tables, text
table 18— (labor-management agreement coverage), and table 1 of this appendix.
Information was tabulated from 29 surveys conducted during 1977, covering
one-third of the workers within the scope of the surveys; 1 1 surveys conducted
during 1976, covering about one-sixth of the workers; and 30 surveys conducted
during 197 5, covering nearly one-half of the workers.
Sampling procedures
The sampling plan is a two-stage design consisting of an establishment
sample and an area sample. The establishment sample is designed to present
data for individual areas; the area sample allows presentation for all metro­
politan areas combined. Data in this bulletin primarily relate to metropolitan
areas combined.
The establishment sample is selected from a universe of all establish­
ments within the scope of each survey, stratified by industry and number of
employees. From this stratified universe a sample is selected, with each
establishment having a predetermined chance of selection. This sample, less
establishments which go out of business or are no longer within the industrial
scope of the survey, is retained for the following two annual surveys. In most
cases, establishments new to the area are not considered in the survey until a
sample for a personal visit survey is chosen. To obtain optimum accuracy at
minimum cost, a greater proportion of large than small establishments is
selected. When data are combined, each establishment is weighted according to
its probability of selection, so that unbiased estimates are generated. For
example, if 1 out of 4 establishments is selected, it is given a weight of 4 to
represent itself plus three others. If data are not available from the original
sample member, an alternate of the same original probability is chosen in
the same industry-size classification. If no suitable substitute is available,
additional weight is assigned to a sample member that is similar to the
missing unit.
The 7 0 -area sample is based on the selection of 1 area from a stratum
of similar areas. Stratification criteria are size of area, region, and type of
industrial activity. Thirty-three areas represent themselves, either because
of population size or their unusual industrial composition. Each of the 37 other
areas represent itself plus one or more similar areas. For regional or all­
metropolitan area estimates, data from each area are weighted by the ratio of
total nonagricultural employment in the stratum to that in the sample area.
Occupations and occupational groups
The occupations studied are common to a variety of manufacturing
and nonmanufacturing industries and are of the following types; ( 1 ) office
clerical; (2) professional and technical; (3) maintenance, toolroom, and powerplant; and (4) material movement and custodial. Occupational classification
is based on a uniform set of job descriptions designed to take account of
inter establishment variation in duties within the same job. Occupations selected
for study are listed and described in appendix B.

For analyzing occupational earnings, wage differences among metro­
politan areas (interarea pay comparisons), and trends of occupational earnings,
information relating to key occupations has been combined to represent five
occupational groups, as shown in the following list:

Percent increases are computed as follows;
1. Average earnings are calculated for each "trend" occupation for
the 2 years being compared. Averages are derived from earnings in
those establishments which are in the survey both years; it is
assumed that employment remains unchanged.

In computing pay relatives for the office clerical group in the 73 Area
Wage Surveys, switchboard operators and order clerks were not used in 1977;
no pay relatives were computed for industrial nurses. Additionally, because of
the more limited set of occupations studied in the 95 Service Contract Act
Surveys, no pay relatives were computed for the electronic data processing
group and the office clerical group was limited to file clerks, keypunch oper­
ators, secretaries, stenographers, and typists. The Bureau conducts these
more limited studies under contract to the Employment Standards Administration
for use in administering the Service Contract Act.
Occupational earnings
Occupational employment and earnings data are shown for full-time
workers, i.e., those hired to work a regular weekly schedule. Earnings data
exclude premium pay for overtime and for work on weekends, holidays, and
late shifts. Nonproduction bonuses are excluded, but cost-of-living allowances
and incentive bonuses are included. Weekly hours for office clerical and
professional and technical occupations refer to the standard workweek (rounded
to the nearest half hour) for which employees receive regular straight-time
salaries (exclusive of pay for overtime at regular and/or premium rates).
Average weekly earnings for these occupations are rounded to the nearest half
dollar. Most A -se rie s tables provide distributions of workers by earnings;
changes in the size of earnings intervals are indicated by vertical lines.
Trends of occupational earnings
Percent increases in this bulletin are based on changes in average
hourly earnings of men and women in establishments reporting "trend" jobs
in both the current and previous year (matched establishments). Data are
adjusted to remove the effect on average earnings of employment shifts among
establishments and turnover of establishments in survey samples. Percent
increases, however, are still affected by factors other than wage increases.
Hirings, layoffs, and turnover may affect an establishment average for an




occupation when workers are paid under plans providing a range of wage rates
for individual jobs. During increased hiring, for example, new employees may
enter at the bottom of the range and depress the average without changing
wage rates.

Each occupation is assigned a weight based on its proportionate
employment in the occupational group in the base year.

3. These weights are used to compute group averages. Each occu­
pation's average earnings (computed in step 1 ) is multiplied by its
weight. The products are totaled to obtain a group average.
4.

The ratio of group averages for 2 consecutive years is computed by
dividing the average for the current year by the average for the
earlier year. The result— expressed as a percent— less 100 is the
percent change.

5. To obtain national and regional estimates for all metropolitan areas,
occupational group averages for each sample area (computed in
step 3) for the 2 years compared are weighted by the number of
workers in the group in the base year. These worker-weighted
earnings are then multiplied by the area weight and totaled for
each economic region. Regional totals are combined to provide
national estimates.
6

. The same method is used to compute percent increases for the
regions and nation as for individual areas (step 4).

Wage differences among areas
Pay relatives express average earnings for an occupational group
(described earlier) in an area as a percent of average earnings for the same
group in all areas combined. Relatives for the Area Wage Survey program
(table A -32) are computed for earnings of workers in (1) establishments in all
six broad industry divisions combined, (2 ) manufacturing establishments, and
(3) nonmanufacturing establishments. 1 Pay relatives for the Service Contract
Act program (table A -33) are computed only for the six broad industry divisions
combined. The following procedure, which eliminates interarea differences in
occupational composition is used to construct pay relatives:
1.

Each occupation is assigned a weight based on its proportionate
contribution to all-industry employment in the occupational group in
all metropolitan areas combined. Weights for the unskilled plant
group, for example, are 67 percent for janitors and 33 percent for
material handling laborers.

2. Average earnings for each occupation are multiplied by correspond­
ing occupational weights, and the products are totaled to produce
group averages for each area and the Nation. All-industry occu­
pational weights are also used to compute manufacturing and
nonmanufacturing group averages.
3. Area pay relatives are obtained by dividing group averages for the
area by the corresponding national average, which equals 1 0 0 .
Thus, a pay relative of 80 indicates that an area's pay level is 80
percent of the nationwide pay level.

Since the Bureau collects data for individual areas throughout the
calendar year, adjustments are made for differences in pay periods. It is
assumed that the wage level for all metropolitan areas combined increased
uniformly during the 12 months from July 197 6 to July 1977, and that this
increase continued to December 1977. Thus, by adding the appropriate number
of monthly wage increments to the July 1976 pay level, the nationwide pay level
is estimated for the months between January and December 1977. For example,
an area study having a payroll reference month of February 1977 is compared
with the nationwide pay level as of July 1976, plus seven-twelfths of the annual
nationwide wage increase.
Although data are adjusted for differences in occupational composition
among areas, no attempt is made to adjust for differences in industries. Thus,
if an industry mix in an area differs from the national mix, pay relatives
for all industries on table A-32 do not necessarily fall between those for
manufacturing and nonmanufacturing. The unskilled plant worker group in
Akron, for example, had a pay relative of 120 for all industries, while the
manufacturing and nonmanufacturing relatives were 117 and 106, respectively.
Establishment practices and supplementary wage provisions
Selected establishment practices and supplementary wage provisions
are studied for full-time plant and office workers. Plant workers (often
referred to as "production and related workers" in other Bureau publications)
include nonsupervisory workers and working supervisors engaged in non­
office functions. (Cafeteria workers and route workers are excluded in manu­
facturing industries but included in nonmanufacturing industries.) Office workers
include nonsupervisory workers and working supervisors performing clerical
or related functions. Lead workers and trainees are included among non­
supervisory workers. Both plant and office workers exclude administrative,
executive, and professional employees and construction workers in separate
work forces.
Shift differentials--- manufacturing (table B -l) . Data were collected on
late- shift pay differentials for plant workers in manufacturing establishments.
Establishments considered as having late-shift policies are those which (1)
have written provisions covering the operation of late shifts, or (2 ) have
operated late shifts at any time during the 1 2 months preceding a survey.
When establishments have several differentials which vary by job or which
apply to certain hours of work, the differential applying to the majority of
workers or shift hours is recorded.
For this study, a late shift is either a second (evening) shift which
ends at or near midnight or a third (night) shift which starts at or near midnight.
Differentials for second and third shifts are summarized separately
for ( 1 ) establishment policies (an establishment's differentials weighted by all
plant workers in the establishment at the time of the survey) and (2 ) effective
practices (an establishment's differentials weighted by plant worker employed on
the specified shift at the time of the survey).
Scheduled weekly hours; paid holidays; paid vacations; and health,
insurance) and pension plans. Provisions which apply to a majority o i the
plant or office workers In an establishment are considered to apply to all
plant or office workers in the establishment; a practice or provision is
considered nonexistent when it applies to less than a majority. Holiday;
vacation; and health, insurance, and retirement pension plans are considered
applicable to employees currently eligible for the benefits as well as to
employees who will eventually become eligible.
Scheduled weekly hours (table B -2).
Scheduled weekly hours refer to
the number of hours per week which full-time first (day) shift workers are
expected to work, whether paid for at straight-time or overtime rates. Summary
information on days per week is presented in text table 13.




Paid holidays (table B -3). Holidays are included if workers who are
not required to work are paid for time off and those required to work receive
premium pay or compensatory time off. They are included only if they are
granted annually on a formal basis (provided for in written form or established
by custom). Holidays are included even though in a particular year they
fall on a nonworkday and employees are not granted another day off. Paid
personal holiday plans, typically found in the automobile and related industries,
are included as paid holidays.
Data are tabulated to show the percent of workers who (l) are granted
specific numbers of whole and half holidays and (2 ) are granted specified
amounts of total holiday time (whole and half holidays are aggregated).
Paid vacations (table B -4). Establishments report their method of
calculating vacation pay (time basis, percent of annual earnings, flat-sum
payment, etc.) and the amount of vacation pay granted. Only basic formal plans
are reported. Vacation bonuses, vacation-saving plans, and "extended" or
"sabbatical" benefits beyond basic plans are excluded.
For tabulating vacation pay granted, all provisions are expressed on a
time basis. Vacation pay calculated on other than a time basis is converted to
its equivalent time period. Two percent of annual earnings, for example, is
tabulated as 1 week's vacation pay.
Provisions after each specified length of service are related to all
plant or office workers in an establishment, regardless of length of service.
Vacation plans commonly provide for larger amounts of vacation pay as service
lengthens. Counts of plant or office workers by length of service were not
obtained. The tabulation of vacation pay granted presents, therefore, statistical
measures of these provisions rather than proportions of workers actually
receiving specific benefits.
Health, insurance, and pension plans (table B -5). Health, insurance,
and retirement pension plans include plans for which the employer pays either
all or part of the cost. The cost may be (l) underwritten by a commercial
insurance company or nonprofit organization, (2 ) covered by a union fund to
which the employer has contributed, or (3) borne directly by the employer out of
operating funds or a fund set aside to cover the cost. A plan is included
even though a majority of the employees in an establishment do not choose
to participate because they are required to bear part of its cost (provided the
choice to participate is available or will eventually become available to a
majority). Excluded are legally required plans such as social security, rail­
road retirement, workers' disability compensation, and temporary disability
insurance. 2

Life insurance includes formal plans providing indemnity (usually
through an insurance policy) in case of death of the covered worker.
Accidental death and dismemberment insurance is limited to plans which
provide benefit payments in case of death or loss of limb or sight as a direct
result of an accident.

hospital expenses. Surgical insurance covers surgeons' fees. Medical insurance
covers doctors' fees for home, office, or hospital calls. Plans restricted to
post-operative medical care or a doctor's care for minor ailments at a worker's
place of employment are not considered medical insurance.

Sickness and accident insurance includes only those plans which provide
that predetermined cash payments be made directly to employees who lose time
from work because of illness or injury, e.g., $ 50 a week for up to 26 weeks of
disability.

Major medical insurance coverage applies to services which go
beyond the basic services covered under hospitalization, surgical, and medical
insurance. Major medical insurance typically (l) requires that a "deductible"
(e.g., $50) be met before benefits begin, (2 ) has a coinsurance feature that
requires the insured to pay a portion (e.g., 2 0 percent) of certain expenses,
and (3) has a specified dollar maximum of benefits (e.g., $ 10,000 a year).

Sick leave plans are limited to formal plans3 which continue an em­
ployee's pay during absence from work because of illness. Data collected
distinguish between ( 1 ) plans which provide full pay with no waiting period,
and (2 ) plans which either provide partial pay or require a waiting period.

Dental insurance plans provide normal dental service benefits, usually
for fillings, extractions, and X -ra y s. Plans which provide benefits only for
oral surgery or repairing accidental damage are not reported.

Long-term 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). Payments are made until the end of the disability, a maximum age,
or eligibility for retirement benefits. Full or partial payments are almost
always reduced by social security, workers' disability compensation, and private
pension benefits payable to the disabled employee.
Hospitalization, surgical, and medical insurance plans reported in
these surveys provide full or partial payment for basic services rendered.
Hospitalization insurance covers hospital room and board and may cover other

Retirement pension plans provide for regular payments to retiree for
life. Included are deferred profit-sharing plans which provide the option of
purchasing a lifetime annuity.
Labor-management agreement coverage (text table 18). Estimates
relate to the extent ol labor-management agreement coverage, not union
membership. An establishment is considered to have a contract covering all
plant or office workers if a majority of such workers is covered by a labormanagement agreement. Therefore, all other plant or office workers are
employed 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 may be covered by the provisions of labormanagement agreements because small establishments are excluded and the
industrial scope of the survey is limited.

Appendix B.
Occupational
Descriptions
The primary purpose of preparing job descriptions for the
Bureau's wage surveys is to assist its field representatives 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 sig­
nificantly from those in use in individual establishments or those pre­
pared for other purposes. In applying these job descriptions, the
Bureau's field representatives are instructed to exclude working super­
visors; apprentices; learners; beginners; and part-time, temporary, and
probationary workers. Handicapped workers whose earnings are reduced
because of their handicap are also excluded. Trainees are excluded from
the survey except for those receiving on-the-job training in some of the
lower level professional and technical occupations.

Office
SECRETARY

SECRET ARY— Continued

Assigned as personal secretary, normally to one individual. Main­
tains a close and highly responsive relationship to the day-to-day work of
the supervisor. Works fairly independently receiving a minimum of detailed
supervision and guidance. Performs varied clerical and secretarial duties,
usually including most of the following:

d. Relays messages from supervisor to subordinates;
e. Reviews correspondence, memorandums, and reports prepared by
others for the supervisor's signature to assure procedural and typographic
accuracy;

a. Receives telephone calls, personal callers, and incoming mail,
answers routine inquiries, and routes technical inquiries to the proper
persons;
b. Establishes, maintains, and revises the supervisor's files;
c. Maintains the supervisor's calendar and makes appointments as
instructed;




f. Performs stenographic and typing work.
May also perform other clerical and secretarial tasks of comparable
nature and difficulty. The work typically requires knowledge of office routine
and understanding of the organization, programs, and procedures related to
the work of the supervisor.

The Bureau periodically reviews area wage survey job descriptions to take into account techno­
logical developments and to clarify descriptions so that they are more readily understood and uniformly
interpreted.
Changes in occupational descriptions are phased in over a three-year period. In January 1976,
the Bureau introduced revised occupational descriptions for order clerk, payroll clerk, and transcribingmachine typist; in January 1977, revised descriptions were introduced for secretary, shipper and receiver,
and guard. The descriptions shown here are those used in two of the three survey years. Information
by level is not available for secretary or order clerk because the old and new level descriptions are not
comparable.
The Bureau has discontinued collecting data for tabulating-machine operator.

not involve varied technical or specialized vocabulary such as that used in
legal briefs or reports on scientific research. May also type from written
copy. May maintain files, keep simple records, or perform other relatively
routine clerical tasks. (See Stenographer definition for workers involved
with shorthand dictation.)
TYPIST

a. Positions which do not meet the "personal"
described above;

secretary concept

b. Stenographers not fully trained in secretarial-type duties;

branch exchange (PBX) system to relay incoming, outgoing, and intrasystem
calls. May provide information to callers, record and transmit messages,
keep record of calls placed and toll charges. Besides operating a telephone
switchboard or console, may also type or perform routine clerical work
(typing or routine clerical work may occupy the major portion of the worker's
time, and is usually performed while at the switchboard or console). Chief or
lead operators in establishments employing more than one operator are
excluded. For an operator who also acts as a receptionist, see Switchboard
Operator-Receptionist.

Positions
definitions:

SWITCHBOARD OPERATOR-RECEPTIONIST

are

classified into levels on the basis

of the following

Class A . Under general supervision, performs accounting clerical
operations which require the application of experience and judgment, for
example, clerically processing complicated or nonrepetitive accounting trans­
actions, selecting among a substantial variety of prescribed accounting codes
and classifications, or tracing transactions though previous accounting actions
to determine source of discrepancies. May be assisted by one or more
class B accounting clerks.

Operates a bookkeeping machine (with or without a typewriter key­
board) to keep a record of business transactions.

Exclude workers paid on a commission basis or whose duties include
any of the following: Receiving orders for services rather than for material
or merchandise; providing customers with consultative advice using knowledge
gained from engineering or extensive technical training; emphasizing selling
skills; handling material or merchandise as an integral part of the job.

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.
May prepare consolidated reports, balance sheets, and other records by hand.
Class B . Keeps a record of one or more 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 in­
cluding a simple type of billing described under machine biller), cost dis­
tribution, expense distribution, inventory control, etc. May check or assist
in preparation of trial balances and prepare control sheets for the accounting
department.

ACCOUNTING CLERK

MACHINE BILLER

Performs one or more accounting clerical tasks such as posting to
registers and ledgers; reconciling bank accounts; verifying the internal con­
sistency, 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 more complicated journal
vouchers. May work in either a manual or automated accounting system.

Prepares statements, bills, and invoices on a machine other than
an ordinary or electromatic typewriter. May also keep records as to billings
or shipping charges or perform other clerical work incidental to billing
operations. For wage study purposes, machine billers are classified by type
of machine, as follows:

The work requires a knowledge of clerical methods and office
practices and procedures which relates to the clerical processing and re­
cording of transactions and accounting information. With experience, the
worker typically becomes 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.




Billing-machine biller. Uses a special billing machine (combination
typing and adding machine) to prepare bills and invoices from customers'
purchase orders, internally prepared orders, shipping memoranda, etc.
Usually involves application of predetermined discounts and shipping charges
and entry of necessary extensions, which may or may not be computed on
the billing machine, and totals which are automatically accumulated by
machine. The operation usually involves a large number of carbon copies of
the bill being prepared and is often done on a fanfold machine.

MACHINE BILLER--- Continued

KEYPUNCH OPERATOR

Bookkeeping-machine biller. 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. The machine automatically accumulates
figures on a number of vertical columns and computes and usually prints
automatically the debit or credit balances. Does not involve a knowledge
of bookkeeping. Works from uniform and standard types of sales and
credit slips.

Operates a keypunch machine to record or verify alphabetic and/or
numeric data on tabulating cards or on tape.

PAYROLL CLERK

in wage rates, supplementary benefits, or tax deductions; editing payroll
listings against source records; tracing and correcting errors in listings;
and assisting in preparation of periodic summary payroll reports. In a nonautomated payroll system, computes wages. Work may require a practical
knowledge of governmental regulations, company payroll policy, or the
computer system for processing payrolls.

Positions
definitions:

are

classified into levels on the basis of the following

Class A . Work requires the application of experience and judgment
in selecting procedures to be followed and in searching for, interpreting,
selecting, or coding items to be keypunched from a variety of source
documents. On occasion may also perform some routine keypunch work.
May train inexperienced keypunch operators.
Class B . Work is routine and repetitive. Under close supervision
or following specific procedures or instructions, works from various stand­
ardized source documents which have been coded, and follows specified
procedures which have been prescribed in detail and require little or no
selecting, coding, or interpreting of data to be recorded. Refers to su­
pervisor problems arising from erroneous items or codes or missing
information.

Professional and Technical
COMPUTER SYSTEMS ANALYST, BUSINESS
Analyzes business problems to formulate procedures for solving
them by use of electronic data processing equipment. Develops a complete
description of all specifications needed to enable programmers to prepare
required digital computer programs. Work involves most of the following:
Analyzes subject-matter operations to be automated and identifies conditions
and criteria required to achieve satisfactory results; specifies number and
types of records, files, and documents to be used; outlines actions to be
performed by personnel and computers in sufficient detail for presentation
to management and for programming (typically this involves preparation of
work and data flow charts); coordinates the development of test problems and
participates in trial runs of new and revised systems; and recommends
equipment changes to obtain more effective overall operations. (NOTE:
Workers performing both systems analysis and programming should be clas­
sified as systems analysts if this is the skill used to determine their pay.)

COMPUTER SYSTEMS ANALYST, BUSINESS— Continued
For wage study purposes, systems analysts are classified as follows:
Class A . Works independently or under only general direction on
complex problems involving all phases of system analysis. Problems are
complex because of diverse sources of input data and multiple-use require­
ments of output data. (For example, develops an integrated production
scheduling, inventory control, cost analysis, and sales analysis record in
which every item of each type is automatically processed through the full
system of records and appropriate followup actions are initiated by the
computer.) Confers with persons concerned to determine the data processing
problems and advises subject-matter personnel on the implications of new or
revised systems of data processing operations. Makes recommendations, if
needed, for approval of major systems installations or changes and for
obtaining equipment.
May provide functional direction to lower level systems analysts
who are assigned to assist.

Does not include employees primarily responsible for the man­
agement or supervision of other electronic data processing employees,
or systems analysts primarily concerned with scientific or engineering
problems.




Class B . Works independently or under only general direction on
problems that are relatively uncomplicated to analyze, plan, program, and
operate. Problems are of limited complexity because sources of input data
are homogeneous and the output data are closely related. (For example,

C O M P U T E R S Y S T E M S A N A L Y S T , BUSINESS— Continued

C O M P U T E R P R O G R A M M E R , BUSINESS— Continued

develops systems for maintaining depositor accounts in a bank, maintaining
accounts receivable in a retail establishment, or maintaining inventory
accounts in a manufacturing or wholesale establishment,) Confers with
persons concerned to determine the data processing problems and advises
subject-matter personnel on the implications of the data processing systems
to be applied.

At this level, programming is difficult because computer equip­
ment must be organized to produce several interrelated but diverse prod­
ucts from numerous and diverse data elements. A wide variety and ex­
tensive number of internal processing actions must occur. This requires
such actions as development of common operations which can be re­
used, establishment of linkage points between operations, adjustments to
data when program requirements exceed computer storage capacity, and
substantial manipulation and resequencing of data elements to form a
highly integrated program.

OR
Works on a segment of a complex data processing scheme or system,
as described for class A. Works independently on routine assignments and
receives instruction and guidance on complex assignments. Work is reviewed
for accuracy of judgment, compliance with instructions, and to insure
proper alignment with the overall system.
Class C. Works under immediate supervision, carrying out analyses
as assigned, usually of a single activity. Assignments are designed to develop
and expand practical experience in the application of procedures and skills
required for systems analysis work. For example, may assist a higher level
systems analyst by preparing the detailed specifications required by pro­
grammers from information developed by the higher level analyst.

May provide functional direction to lower level programmers who
are assigned to assist.
Class B . Works independently or under only general direction on
relatively simple programs, or on simple segments of complex programs.
Programs (or segments) usually process information to produce data in two
or three varied sequences or formats. Reports and listings are produced by
refining, adapting, arraying, or making minor additions to or deletions from
input data which are readily available. While numerous records may be
processed, the data have been refined in prior actions so that the accuracy
and sequencing of data can be tested by using a few routine checks. Typically,
the program deals with routine recordkeeping operations.

COMPUTER PROGRAMMER, BUSINESS
Converts statements of business problems, typically prepared by a
systems analyst, into a sequence of detailed instructions which are re­
quired to solve the problems by automatic data processing equipment.
Working from charts or diagrams, the programmer develops the pre­
cise instructions which, when entered into the computer system in coded
language, cause the manipulation of data to achieve desired results. Work
involves most of the following: Applies knowledge of computer capa­
bilities, mathematics, logic employed by computers, and particular sub­
ject matter involved to analyze charts and diagrams of the problem to
be programmed; develops sequence of program steps; writes detailed flow
charts to show order in which data will be processed; converts these
charts to coded instructions for machine to follow; tests and corrects
programs; prepares instructions for operating personnel during production
run; analyzes, reviews, and alters programs to increase operating effi­
ciency or adapt to new requirements; maintains records of program de­
velopment and revisions. (NOTE: Workers performing both systems anal­
ysis and programming should be classified as systems analysts if this is
the skill used to determine their pay.)
Does not include employees primarily responsible for the man­
agement or supervision of other electronic data processing employees,
or programmers primarily concerned with scientific and/or engineering
problems.
For wage study purposes, programmers are classified as follows:
Class A . Works independently or under only general direction
