The Bureau of Labor Statistics program of annual
occupational wage surveys in metropolitan areas is de
signed to provide data on occupational earnings, and estab
lishment practices and supplementary wage provisions.
It
yields detailed data by selected industry divisions for each
of the areas studied, for economic regions, and for the
United States.
A m ajor consideration in the program is
the need for greater insight into (1) the movement of wages
by occupational category and skill level, and (2) the struc
ture and level of wages among areas and industry divisions.
At the end of each survey, an individual area bul
letin presents survey results for each area studied.
After
completion of all of the individual area bulletins for a round
of surveys, a two-part summary bulletin is issued.
The
first part brings data for each of the metropolitan areas
studied into one bulletin.
The second part presents infor
mation which has been projected from individual m etro
politan area data to relate to economic regions and the
United States.

This bulletin presents results of the survey in
Cleveland, Ohio, in September 1965. The Standard M etro
politan Statistical Area, as defined by the Bureau of the
Budget through March 1965, consists of Cuyahoga, Geauga,
Lake, and Medina Counties.
This study was conducted by
the Bureau's regional office in Cleveland, Ohio, John W.
Lehman, Director; by Adrien Picard, under the direction
of Edward Chaiken.
The study was under the general
direction of Elliott A. Browar, Assistant Regional Director
for Wages and Industrial Relations.

Current reports on occupational earnings and sup
plementary wage provisions in the Cleveland area are also
available for the machinery industries (May 1965); auto
dealer repair shops (September 1964); fabricated struc
tural steel (October 1964); fluid m ilk (September 1964);
and m iscellaneous plastics products (June 1964).
Union
sca les, indicative of prevailing pay lev els, are available
for building construction, printing, local-tran sit operating
em ployees, and motortruck drivers and helpers.

Area W age Survey----The Cleveland, Ohio, Metropolitan Area
Introduction
Occupational employment and earnings data are shown for
fu ll-tim e workers, i.e ., those hired to work a regular weekly schedule
in the given occupational classification.
Earnings data exclude p re
mium pay for overtime and for work on weekends, holidays, and
late shifts. Nonproduction bonuses are excluded, but co st-of-liv in g
bonuses and incentive earnings are included. Where weekly hours are
reported, as for office clerical occupations, reference is to the work
schedules (rounded to the nearest half hour) for which straight-tim e
salaries are paid; average weekly earnings for these occupations have
been rounded to the nearest half dollar.
This area is 1 of 85 in which the U.S. Department of Labor's
Bureau of Labor Statistics conducts surveys of occupational earnings
and related wage benefits on an areawide basis.
This bulletin presents current occupational employment and
earnings information obtained largely by m ail from the establishments
visited by Bureau field economists in the last previous survey for
occupations reported in that earlier study. Personal visits were made
to nonrespondents and to those respondents reporting unusual changes
since the previous survey.
The averages presented reflect composite, areawide estimates.
Industries and establishments differ in pay level and job staffing and,
thus, contribute differently to the estim ates for each job.
The pay
relationship obtainable from the averages may fail to reflect accurately
the wage spread or differential maintained among jobs in individual
establishments. Sim ilarly, differences in average pay levels for men
and women in any of the selected occupations should not be assumed to
reflect differences in pay treatment of the sexes within individual e s
tablishments. Other possible factors which may contribute to differ
ences in pay for men and women include; Differences in progression
within established rate ranges, since only the actual rates paid in
cumbents are collected; and differences in specific duties performed,
although the workers are appropriately classified within the same
survey job description. Job descriptions used in classifying employees
in these surveys are usually more generalized than those used in
individual establishments and allow for minor differences among e s
tablishments in the specific duties performed.
In each area, data are obtained from representative estab
lishments within six broad industry divisions; Manufacturing; tran s
portation, 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 opera
tions and the construction and extractive industries. Establishments
having fewer than a prescribed number of workers are omitted because
they tend to furnish insufficient employment in the occupations studied
to warrant inclusion. Separate tabulations are provided for each of the
broad industry divisions which meet publication criteria.
These surveys are conducted on a sample basis because of
the unnecessary cost involved in surveying all establishments.
To
obtain optimum accuracy at minimum cost, a greater proportion of
large than of sm all establishments is studied. In combining the data,
however, all establishments are given their appropriate weight. E s
timates based on the establishments studied are presented, therefore,
as relating to all establishments in the industry grouping and area,
except for those below the minimum size studied.
Occupational employment estimates represent the total in all
establishments within the scope of the study and not the number actually
surveyed. Because of differences in occupational structure among e s
tablishments, the 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 m aterially affect the accuracy of the earnings data.
Occupations and Earnings
The occupations selected for study 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 and powerplant; and (4) custodial and m aterial m ove
ment.
Occupational classification is based on a uniform set of job
descriptions designed to take account of interestablishment variation
in duties within the same job.
The occupations selected for study
are listed and described in the appendix. Earnings data for some of
the occupations listed and described are not presented in the A -s e r ie s
tables because either (1) employment in the occupation is too sm all
to provide enough data to m erit presentation, or (2) there is p o ssi
bility of disclosure of individual establishment data.
Establishment Practices and Supplementary Wage Provisions
Tabulations on selected establishment practices and supple
mentary wage provisions (B -se r ie s tables) are not presented in this
bulletin. Information for these tabulations is collected biennially in
this area.
These tabulations on minimum entrance salaries for
inexperienced women office w orkers; shift differentials; scheduled
weekly hours; paid holidays; paid vacations; and health, insurance,
and pension plans; are presented (in the B -s e r ie s tables) in previous
bulletins for this area.

1 The Cleveland Standard M etropolitan Statistical A r e a , as defined by the Bureau of the Budget through M arch 1965, consists of Cuyahoga,
Geauga, Lake, and Medina Counties. The "w o rkers within scope of study" estim ates shown in this table provide a reasonably accurate description
of the size and com position of the labor force included in the survey. The estim ates are not intended, however, to serve as a basis of com parison
with other employment indexes for the area to m easure employment trends or levels since (1) planning of wage surveys requires the use of establishm ent
data com piled considerably in advance of the payroll period studied, and (2) sm all establishm ents are excluded from the scope of the survey.
2 The 1957 revised edition of the Standard Industrial C lassification Manual and the 1963 Supplement w ere used in classifying establishm ents by
industry division.
3 Includes all establishm ents 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 establishm ent.
4 Includes all w orkers in all establishm ents with total employment (within the area) at or above the minim um limitation.
5 Taxicabs and services incidental to water transportation w ere excluded. Cleveland's transit system is municipally operated and is excluded
by definition from the scope of the study.
6 This industry division is represented in estim ates for " a l l indu stries" and "nonmanufacturing" in the Series A tables. Separate presentation
of data for this division is not made for one or m ore of the following reasons: (1) Employment in the division is too sm all to provide enough data
to m erit separate study, (2) the sample was not designed initially to perm it separate presentation, (3) response was insufficient or inadequate to
perm it separate presentation, and (4) there is possibility of disclosure' of individual establishm ent data.
7 Hotels; personal serv ice s; business serv ice s; automobile repair shops; motion pictures; nonprofit m em bership organizations (excluding religious
and charitable organizations); and engineering and architectural serv ice s.
B ased on estim ates of total employment derived from universe m aterials compiled
prior to actual survey, 63 percent of the em ployees within scope of the survey in Cleveland
w ere employed in manufacturing fir m s . No one manufacturing industry accounted for as much
as on e-fifth of the total manufacturing employment. The following presents m ajor industry
groups and specific industries as a percent f all manufacturing.

W age Trends for Selected Occupational Groups
Presented in table 2 are indexes and percentages of change in
average salaries of office clerical workers and industrial nurses, and
in average earnings of selected plant worker groups.
For office clerical workers and industrial nurses, the p er
centages of change relate to average weekly salaries for normal hours
of work, that is , the standard work schedule for which straight-tim e
salaries are paid. For plant worker groups, they measure changes
in average straight-tim e hourly earnings, excluding premium pay for
overtime and for work on weekends, holidays, and late shifts.
The
percentages are based on data for selected key occupations and in
clude most of the numerically important jobs within each group.
Office clerical (men and women):
Bookkeeping-machine operators, class B
Clerks, accounting, classes A and B
Clerks, file, classes A, B, and C
Clerks, order
Clerks, payroll
Comptometer operators
Keypunch operators, classes A and B
Office boys and girls
Secretaries
Stenographers, general
Stenographers, senior
Switchboard operators, classes A and B
Tabulating-machine operators, class B
Typists, classes A and B
Average weekly

or hourly earnings were

Industrial nurses (men and women):
Nurses, industrial (registered)
Skilled maintenance (men):
Carpenters
Electricians
Machinists
Mechanics
Mechanics (automotive)
Painters
Pipefitters
Tool and die makers
Unskilled plant (men):
Janitors, porters, and cleaners
Laborers, material handling
salaries or average hourly earnings were
selected occupations. The average salaries
then multiplied by employment in each of
surveyed in 1961. These weighted earnings
for individual occupations were then totaled to obtain an aggregate for
each occupational group. Finally, the ratio (expressed as a percentage)
of the group aggregate for the one year to the aggregate for the other
year was computed and the difference between the result and 100 is
the percentage of change from -the one period to the other.
The
indexes were computed by multiplying the ratios for each group
aggregate for each period after the base year (1961).
The indexes and percentages of change m easure, principally,
the effects of (1) general salary and wage changes; (2) m erit or other
increases in pay received by individual workers while in the same job;
and (3) changes in average wages due to changes in the labor force r e
sulting from labor turnover, force expansions, force reductions, and
changes in the proportions of workers employed by establishments with
different pay lev els. Changes in the labor force can cause increases
or decreases in the occupational averages without actual wage changes.
For example, a force expansion might increase the proportion of lower
paid workers in a specific occupation and lower the average, whereas
a reduction in the proportion of lower paid workers would have the
opposite effect. Sim ilarly, the movement of a high-paying establish
ment out of an area could cause the average earnings to drop, even
though no change in rates occurred in other establishments in the area.
Data are adjusted where necessary to remove from the indexes and
percentages of change any significant effect caused by changes in
scope of the survey.
The use of constant employment weights eliminates the effect
of changes in the proportion of workers represented in each job in
cluded in the data. The percentages of change reflect only changes in
average pay for straight-tim e hours.
They are not influenced by
changes in standard work schedules, as such, or by premium pay
for overtime.

Appendix. 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, handicapped, part-time, temporary, and probationary workers.
