Area Wage Survey Boston, Massachusetts, Metropolitan Area, August 1976 Bulletin 1900-53 /- o ? , 3 : U.S. Department of Labor Bureau of Labor Statistics /*? a-o & SO .CP- Preface This bulletin provides results of an August 1976 survey of occupational earnings in the Boston, Massachusetts, Standard Metropolitan Statistical Area (Suffolk County, 16 communities in Essex County, 34 in Middlesex County, 26 in Norfolk County, and 12 in Plymouth County). The survey was made as part of the Bureau of Labor Statistics' annual area wage survey program, which is designed to yield data for individual metropolitan areas as well as national and regional estimates for all Standard Metropolitan Statistical Areas 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 markets, 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, in cluding 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 deter minations under the Service Contract Act of 1965. Currently, 84 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 establish ment 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 presents national and regional estimates, projected from individual metropolitan area data. The Boston survey was conducted by the Bureau's re gional office in Boston, M ass., under the general direction of Paul V. Mulkern, Assistant Regional Commissioner for Opera tions. The survey could not have been accomplished without the cooperation of the many firms whose wage and salary data pro vided the basis for the statistical information in this bulletin. The Bureau wishes to express sincere appreciation for the cooperation received. N o te ; Reports on occupational earnings and supplementary wage provisions in the Boston area are available for electrical appli ance repair (November L975) and women's and m isses' dresses (August 1974); and on' occupational earnings only for selected laundry and dry cleaning occupations (August 197 6 ). Also availa ble are listings of union wage rates for building trades, printing trades, local-transit operating employees, local truckdrivers and helpers, and grocery store employees. Free copies of these are available from the Bureau's regional offices. (See back cover for addresses.)

Introduction (c) maintenance, toolroom, and powerplant, and (d) material movement and custodial. In the 31 largest survey areas, tables A - l a through A -6a provide similar data for establishments employing 500 work ers or more. This area is 1 of 84 in which the U.S. Department of Labor's Bureau of Labor Statistics conducts surveys of occupational earnings and re lated benefits. In this area, data were obtained by a combination of personal visit, mail questionnaire, and telephone interview. Representative establish ments within six broad industry divisions were con tacted: Manufacturing; transportation, communica tion, 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. Establish ments having fewer than a prescribed number of workers are omitted because of insufficient employ ment in the occupations studied. Separate tabula tions are provided for each of the broad industry divisions which meet publication criteria. Table A -7 provides percent changes in av erage hourly earnings of office clerical workers, electronic data p r o c e s s i n g workers, industrial nurses, skilled maintenance trades workers, and unskilled plant workers. Where possible, data are presented for all industries, manufacturing, and nonmanufacturing. This table provides a measure of wage trends after elimination of changes in average earnings caused by employment shifts among estab lishments as well as turnover of establishments in cluded in survey samples. For further details, see appendix A. Appendixes A -series tables Appendix A describes the methods and con cepts used in the area wage survey program and provides information on the scope of the survey. Tables A - 1 through A-6 provide estimates of straight-time weekly or hourly earnings for work ers in occupations common to a variety of manu facturing and nonmanufacturing industries. Occupa tions were selected from the following categories: (a) Office clerical, (b) professional and technical, Appendix B provides job descriptions used by Bureau field economists to classify workers by occupation. 2 A.

In each of the 84 2 areas currently surveyed, data are obtained from representative establishments within six broad industry divisions: Manufac turing; transportation, 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 employ ment in the occupations studied. Separate tabulations are provided for each of the broad industry divisions which meet publication criteria. These surveys are conducted on a sample basis. The sampling procedures involve detailed stratification of all establishments within the scope of an individual area survey by industry and number of employees. From this stratified universe a probability sample is selected, with each establishment having a predetermined chance of selection. To obtain optimum accuracy at minimum cost, a greater proportion of large than small estab lishments 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 one out of four establishments is selected, it is given a weight of four to represent itself plus three others. An alternate of the same original probability is chosen in the same industry-size classi fication if data are not available from the original sample member. If no suitable substitute is available, additional weight is assigned to a sample member that is similar to the missing unit. Occupations and earnings Occupations selected for study are common to a variety of manufac turing 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 interestablishment variation in duties within the same job. Occu pations selected for study are listed and described in appendix B. Unless otherwise indicated, the earnings data following the job titles are for all industries combined. Earnings data for some of the occupations listed and 1 Personal visits were on a 2-year cycle before July 1972. ^ Included in the 84 areas are 14 studies conducted by the Bureau under contract. These areas are Akron, Ohio; Austin, T ex .; Binghamton, N .Y . —P a.; Birmingham, A la .; Fort Lauderdale—Hollywood and West Palm Beach—Boca Raton, Fla.; Lexington—Fayette, Ky. ; Melbourne—Titusville—Cocoa, Fxa.; Norfolk—Virginia Beach—Portsmouth and Newport News—Hampton, Va. —N. C .; Poughkeepsie—Kingston—Newburgh, N .Y. ; Raleigh— Durham, N. C .; Stamford, Conn.; Syracuse, N .Y .; Utica—Rome, N .Y .; and Westchester County, N .Y . In addition, the Bureau conducts more limited area studies in approximately 100 areas at the request of the Employment Standards Administration of the U. S. Department of Labor. 27 described, or for some industry divisions within the scope of the survey, are not presented in the A-series tables, because either (1) employment in the occupation is too small to provide enough data to merit presentation, or (2) there is possibility of disclosure of individual establishment data. Sepa rate men's and women's earnings data are not presented when the number of workers not identified by sex is 20 percent or more of the men or women identified in an occupation. Earnings data not shown separately for industry divisions are included in data for all industries combined. Likewise, data are included in the overall classification when a subclassification of electronics technicians, secretaries, or truckdrivers is not shown or infor mation to subclassify is not available. 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. These surveys measure the level of occupational earnings in an area at a particular time. Comparisons of individual occupational averages over time may not reflect expected wage changes. The averages for individual jobs are affected by changes in wages and employment patterns. For example, proportions of workers employed by high- or low-wage firms may change, or high-wage workers may advance to better jobs and be replaced by new workers at lower rates. Such shifts in employment could decrease an occu pational average even though most establishments in an area increase wages during the year. Changes in earnings of occupational groups, shown in table A -7 , are better indicators of wage trends than are earnings changes for individual jobs within the groups. Average earnings reflect composite, areawide estimates. Industries and establishments differ in pay level and job staffing, and thus contribute differently to the estimates for each job. Pay averages may fail to reflect accurately the wage differential among jobs in individual establishments. Average pay levels for men and women in selected occupations should not be assumed to reflect differences in pay of the sexes within individual establishments. Factors which may contribute to differences include pro gression within established rate ranges (only the rates paid incumbents are collected) and performance of specific duties within the general survey job descriptions. Job descriptions used to classify employees in these surveys usually are more generalized than those used in individual establishments and allow for minor differences among establishments in specific duties performed. Occupational employment estimates represent the total in all estab lishments within the scope of the study and not the number actually surveyed. Because occupational structures among establishments differ, estimates of occupational employment obtained from the sample of establishments studied serve only to indicate the relative importance of the jobs studied. These differences in occupational structure do not affect materially the accuracy of the earnings data. Wage trends for selected occupational groups The percent increases presented in table A-7 are based on changes in average hourly earnings for establishments reporting the trend jobs in both the current and previous year (matched establishments). The data are adjusted to remove the effects on average earnings of employment shifts among establishments and turnover of establishments included in survey samples. The 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. In periods of increased hiring, for example, new employees enter at the bottom of the range, depressing the average without a change in wage rates. The percent changes relate to wage changes between the indicated dates. When the time span between surveys is other than 12 months, annual rates are shown. (It is assumed that wages increase at a constant rate between surveys.) Occupations used to compute wage trends are: Office clerical (men and women): Office clerical (men and women)— Continued Secretaries Stenographers, general Stenographers, senior Typists, classes A and B File clerks, classes A, B, and C Me ssengers Switchboard operators Order clerks Accounting clerks, classes A and B Bookkeeping-machine operators, class B Payroll clerks Keypunch operators, classes A and B T abulating - m ac hine operators, class B Electronic data processing (men and women): Skilled maintenance (men and women): Computer systems analysts, classes A, B, and C Computer programmers, classes A, B, and C Computer operators, classes A, B, and C Carpenters Electricians Painters Machinists Mechanics (machinery) Mechanics (motor vehicle) Pipefitters Tool and die makers Industrial nurses (men and women): Unskilled plant (men and women): Registered industrial nurses Janitors, porters, and cleaners Material handling laborers Percent changes for indiv: as follows: areas in the program are computed 1. Each occupation is assigned a weight based on its pro portionate employment in the occupational group in the base year. 2. These weights are used to compute group averages. Each occupation's average (mean) earnings is multiplied by its weight. The products are totaled to obtain a group average. 3. 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 r e s u lt expressed as a percent--- less 100 is the percent change. For a more detailed description of the method used to compute these wage trends, see "Improving Area Wage Survey Indexes, " Monthly Labor Review, January 1973, pp. 52-57. Establishment practices and supplementary wage provisions Tabulations on selected establishment practices and supplementary wage provisions (B-series tables) are not presented in this bulletin. Infor mation for these tabulations is collected at 3-year intervals. 1 These tabu lations on minimum entrance salaries for inexperienced office workers; shift differentials; scheduled weekly hours and days; paid holidays; paid vacations; and health, insurance, and pension plans are presented (in the B-series tables) in previous bulletins for this area. 1 Personal visits were on a 2-year cycle before July 1972.

Occupational Descriptions The primary 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-time, temporary, and probationary workers. OFFICE SECRETARY SECRETAR Y— 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: 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. Exclusions a. Receives telephone calls, personal callers, and incoming mail, answers routine inquiries, and routes technical inquiries to the proper persons; Not all positions that are titled "secretary" possess the above char acteristics. Examples of positions which are excluded from the definition are as follows: b. Establishes, maintains, and revises the supervisor's files; c. Maintains the supervisor's calendar and makes appointments as instructed; a. Positions which do not meet the "personal" secretary concept described above; b. Stenographers not fully trained in secretarial-type duties; d. Relays messages from supervisor to subordinates; c. Stenographers serving as office assistants to a group of profes e. Reviews correspondence, memorandums, and reports prepared by sional, technical, or managerial persons; others for the supervisor's signature to assure procedural and typographic accuracy; d. Secretary positions in which the duties are either substantially more routine or substantially more complex and responsible than those char f. Performs stenographic and typing work. acterized in the definition; Beginning with calendar year 1976 surveys, the Bureau has grouped occupations studied in its area wage surveys into job families in order to present information on related occupations in sequence. Job families have not been titled, however, since doing so might have added extraneous elements to the job matching process. The Bureau has also revised several occupational titles. word order and are more descriptive of the survey jobs. 30 The titles more nearly reflect usual SEC R E T A R Y— C ontinued Exclusions— Continued S E C R E T A R Y — Continued Class C e.

Secretary to the head of an individual plant, factory, etc. (or other equivalent level of official) that employs, in all, over 5,000 persons; or 5. Secretary to the head of a large and important organizational segment (e.g., a middle management supervisor of an organizational segment often involving as many as several hundred persons) or a company that employs, in all, over 25, 000 persons. Primary duty is to take dictation using shorthand, and to transcribe the dictation. May also type from written copy. May operate from a steno graphic pool. May occasionally transcribe from voice recordings (if primary duty is transcribing from recordings, see Transcribing-Machine Typist). NOTE: This job is distinguished from that of a secretary in that a secretary normally works in a confidential relationship with only one manager or executive and performs more responsible and discretionary tasks as described in the secretary job definition. Stenographer, General Dictation involves a normal routine vocabulary. May maintain files, keep simple records, or perform othdr relatively routine clerical tasks. Stenographer, Senior Dictation involves a varied technical or specialized vocabulary such as in legal briefs or reports on scientific research. May also set up and maintain files, keep records, etc. OR Performs stenographic duties requiring significantly greater inde pendence and responsibility than stenographer, general, as evidenced by the following: Work requires a high degree of stenographic speed and accuracy; a thorough working knowledge of general business and office procedure; and of the specific business operations, organization, policies, procedures, files, workflow, etc. Uses this knowledge in performing stenographic duties and responsible clerical tasks such as maintaining followup files; assembling material for reports, memorandums, and letters; composing simple letters from general instructions; reading and routing incoming mail; and answering routine questions, etc. T R A N S C R IB I N G -M A C H I N E T Y P I S T S W IT C H B O A R D O P E R A T O R Primary duty is to transcribe dictation involving a normal routine vocabulary from transcribing-machine records. May also type from written copy and do simple clerical work. Workers transcribing dictation involving a varied technical or specialized vocabulary such as legal briefs or reports on scientific research are not included. A worker who takes dictation in shorthand or by Stenotype or similar machine is classified as a stenographer. Operates a telephone switchboard or console used with a private 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. T YPIST Uses a typewriter to make copies of various materials or to make out bills after calculations have been made by another person. May include typing of stencils, mats, or similar materials for use in duplicating pro cesses. May do clerical work involving little special training, such as keeping simple records, filing records and reports, or sorting and distributing incoming mail. Class A. Performs one or more of the following: Typing material in final form when it involves combining material from several sources; or responsibility for correct spelling, syllabication, punctuation, etc., of tech nical or unusual words or foreign language material; or planning layout and typing of complicated statistical tables to maintain uniformity and balance in spacing.
