1 The Baltim ore Standard Metropolitan Statistical A re a , as defined by the O ffice of Management and Budget through November 1971, consists of the city of Baltim ore, and the counties of
Anne Arundel, Baltim ore, C arroll, Harford, and Howard. 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.
The estimates are not intended, however, to serve as a basis of comparison with other employment indexes for
the
area to measure employment trends
or levels since (1) plp.nning of wage surveys requires the use of establishment data compiled considerably in advance of the payroll period studied, and (2) small establishments are excluded from
the scope of the survey.
2 The 1967 edition of the Standard Industrial Classification Manual was used in classifying establishments by industry division.
3 Includes all establishments with total employment at or above the minimum limitation. A ll outlets (within the area) of companies in such industries as trade, finance, auto repair service,
and motion picture theaters are considered as 1 establishment.
4 Includes executive, professional, and other w orkers excluded from the separate plant and office categories.
5 Abbreviated to "public u tilities"
in the A - and B -se rie s tables. Taxicabs and services incidental to water transportation w ere excluded. L ocal transit operations in Baltimore are
governmentally owned and operated and excluded by definition from the scope of the study.
6 Abbreviated to "finance" in the A - and B -se rie s tables.
7 Estimate relates to real estate establishments only. W orkers from the entire industry division are represented in the Series A tables, but from the real estate portion only in "a ll industry"
estimates in the Series B tables.
8 Hotels and motels; laundries and other personal services; business services; automobile repair, rental, and parking; motion pictures; nonprofit membership organizations (excluding religious
and charitable organizations); and engineering and architectural services.
Labor-management agreement coverage
Industrial composition in manufacturing
One-half of the workers within scope of the survey in the Baltim ore area w ere
employed in manufacturing firm s. The following presents the major industry groups and
specific industries as a percent of all manufacturing:

This information is based on estimates of total employment derived from universe

differ from proportions based on the results of the survey as shown in table 1 above.
The following tabulation shows the percent of plantworkers and officeworkers
employed in establishments in which a contract or contracts covered a m ajority of the workers
in the respective categories, Baltim ore, Md,, August 1972:

An establishment is considered to have a contract covering all plantworkers or
officeworkers i f a m ajority of such w orkers are covered by a labor-management agreement.
Th erefore, all other plantworkers or officeworkers 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 plantworkers or officeworkers. Estimates are not necessarily representative
of the extent to which all w orkers in the area may be covered by the provisions of

The prim ary purpose of preparing job descriptions for the Bureau's wage surveys is to assist its field staff in classifying into appropriate
occupations workers who are employed under a variety 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 significantly from those in use in
individual establishments or those prepared for other purposes. In applying these job descriptions, the Bureau's field economists are instructed
to exclude working supervisors; apprentices; learners; beginners; trainees; and handicapped, part-tim e, temporary, and probationary workers.

of program steps; w rites detailed flow charts to show order in which data w ill 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, review s, and alters
programs to increase operating efficiency or adapt to new requirements; maintains records of
program development and revisions. (NOTE: Workers perform ing both systems analysis and pro
graming should be classified as systems analysts if this is the skill used to determine their pay.)
Does not include employees prim arily responsible for the management or supervision of
other electronic data processing employees, or program ers prim arily concerned with scientific
and/or engineering problem s.
For wage study purposes, program ers are classified as follows:
Class A. Works independently or under only general direction on qomplex problems which
require competence in all phases of programing concepts and practices. Working from dia
grams and charts which identify the nature of desired results, m ajor processing steps to be
accomplished, and the relationships between various steps of the problem solving routine;
plans the full range of programing actions needed to efficiently utilize the computer system
in achieving desired end products.
At this level, programing is difficult because computer equipment must be organized to
produce several interrelated but diverse products from numerous and diverse data elements.
A wide variety and extensive number of internal processing actions must occur. This requires
such actions as development of common operations which can be reused, 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.
May provide functional direction to lower level program ers who are assigned to assist.
Class B . Works independently or under only general direction on relatively simple
programs, or on simple segments of complex program s. Program s (or segments) usually
process information to produce data in two or three varied sequences or form ats. 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 record-keeping type operations.
OR
Works on complex programs (as described for class A ) under close direction of a higher
level program er or supervisor. May assist higher level program er by independently p e r
forming less difficult tasks assigned, and perform ing m ore difficult tasks under fa irly close

May provide functional direction to lower level systems analysts who are assigned to
assist.
Class B. Works independently or under only general direction on problems that are
rela tively uncomplicated to analyze, plan, program, and operate. Problem s are of lim ited
complexity because sources of input data are homogeneous and the output data are closely
related. (F or example, 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 o f the
data processing systems to be applied.
