The prim ary purpose of preparing job descriptions for the B u reau 's wage surveys is to a s s is t its field staff in classify in g into aripropriate
occupations w orkers who are employed under a variety of payroll title s and different work arrangem en ts from establishm ent to establishm ent and
from a re a to a re a . This p erm its the grouping of occupational wage rates representing com parable job content. B ecause of this em phasis on
interestablishm ent and in terare a com parability of occupational content, the B u reau 's job descriptions m ay differ significantly from thos< n use in
individual establishm ents or those prepared for other p urposes. In applying these job d escrip tion s, the B u reau 's field econom ists a re instructed
to exclude working su p e rv iso rs; apprentices; le a rn e rs; beginners; train e es; and handicapped, p art-tim e, tem porary, and probationary w orkers.

cle rical work incidental to billing operations. F o r wage study p urp oses, b ille r s, m achine, are
cla ssifie d by type of m achine, as follows:
B ille r, machine (billing m achine). U ses a sp ecial billing machine (combination typing
and adding machine) to p rep are bills and invoices from cu stom ers' purchase o rd e rs, in ter
nally p repared o rd e rs, shipping m em orandum s, etc. Usually involves application of p r e
determined discounts and shipping ch arges and entry of n ece ssary extension s, which m ay or
may not be computed on the billing m achine, and totals which are autom atically accum ulated
by m achine. The operation usually involves a la rge number of carbon copies of the bill being
prepared and is often done on a fanfold m achine.
B iller, machine (bookkeeping m achine). U ses a bookkeeping machine (with or without
a typew riter keyboard) to p rep are cu sto m ers' b ills a s part of the accounts receivable o p era

in achieving d esired end products.
At this level, program ing is difficult because com puter equipment m ust be organized to
produce sev eral in terrelated but d iv erse products from numerous and d iv erse data elem ents.
A wide variety and extensive number of internal p ro cessin g actions m ust occur. This requ ires
such actions as development of common operations which can be reused, establishm ent of

of data can be tested by using a few routine checks. Typically, the program d eals with
routine record-keeping type operations.
every item of each type is autom atically p ro cessed through the full system of record s and
appropriate followup actions are initiated by the computer.) Confers with p erson s concerned to
