N O T E : The percent increases presented in this table are based on changes in average
hourly earnings for establishments reporting the trend jobs in both the current and previous
year (matched establishments). Th e y are not affected by changes in average earnings
resulting fr o m em pl oy me nt shifts a m o n g establishments or turnover of establishments
included in survey samples. The percent increases, however, are still affected by factors
other than wa g e increases. Hirings, layoffs, and turnover m a y affect an establishment
average for an occupation w h e n workers are paid under plans providing a range of wa ge rates
for individual jobs. In periods of increased hiring, for example, n e w employees enter at the
bottom of the range, depressing the average without a change in wage rates.
These wa g e trends are not linked co the w a g e indexes previously published for this
area because the wa g e indexes m e a s u r e d changes in area averages, whereas these wage
trends m e a s u r e changes in matched establishment averages. Other characteristics of the^e
wa g e trends which differ f r o m the discontinued indexes include (1) earnings data of office
clerical workers and industrial nurses are converted to an hourly basis, (2) trend estimates
are provided for nonmanufacturing establishments, wh er e possible, and (3) trend estimates
are provided for electronic data processing jobs.
F o r a m o r e detailed description of the me th od used to compute these wage trends, see
"Improving Ar ea W a g e Survey Indexes," Monthly Labor R e vi ew, January 1973, pp. 52-57.

Footnotes
Standard hours reflect the w o r k w e e k for which employees receive their regular straight-time salaries (exclusive of pay for overtime at regular and/or p r e m i u m rates), and the earnings correspond
to these weekly hours.
2
The m e a n is computed for each job by totaling the earnings of all workers and dividing by the n u m b e r of workers. The median designates position— half of the employees surveyed receive m o r e
and half receive less than the rate shown. Th e middle range is defined by 2 rates of pay; a fourth of the workers earn less than the lower of these rates and a fourth earn m o r e than the higher rate.
Excludes p r e m i u m pay for overtime and for wo r k on weekends, holidays, and' late shifts.




Appendix A
A r e a wa g e and related benefits data are obtained by personal visits of Bu re au field represent­
atives at 3-year intervals. 1 In each of the intervening years, information on e m pl oy me nt and
occupational earnings is collected by a combination ot personal visit; mail questionnaire, and telephone
interview f r o m establishments participating in the previous survey.
In each of the 83 2 areas currently surveyed, data are obtained fr o m representative estab­
lishments within six broad industry divisions: Manufacturing; transportation, communication, and other
public utilities; wholesale trade; retail trade; finance, insurance, and real estate; and services. Major
industry groups excluded f r o m these studies are government operations and the construction and
extractive industries. Establishments having fewer than a prescribed n u m b e r of workers are omitted
because of insufficient e m p l o y m e n t in the occupations studied. Separate tabulations are provided for
each of the broad industry divisions which me e t publication criteria.

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 m a y fail to reflect accurately the w a g e differential a m o n g jobs in individual establishments.
Average pay levels for m e n and w o m e n in selected occupations should not be a s su me d to
reflect differences in pay of the sexes within individual establishments. Factors which m a y contribute
to differences include progression within established rate ranges, since 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 m o r e generalized than those used
in individual establishments and allow for mi n o r differences a m o n g establishments in specific
duties performed.
Occupational em pl o y m e n t estimates represent the total in all establishments within the scope
of the study and not the n u m b e r actually surveyed. Because occupational structures am o n g establish­
me nt s differ, estimates of occupational e m pl oy me nt obtained f r o m 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.

These surveys are conducted on a sample basis. Th e sampling procedures involve detailed
stratification of all establishments within the scope of an individual' area survey by industry and n u m b e r
of employees. F r o m this stratified universe a probability sample is selected, with each establishment
having a predetermined chance of selection. T o obtain o p t i m u m accuracy at m i n i m u m cost, a greater
proportion of large than small establishments is selected. W h e n data are combined, feach establishment
is weighted according to its probability of selection, so that unbiased estimates are generated. F o r
example, if one out of four establishments is selected, it is given a weight of four to represent itself
plus three others. A n alternate of the s a m e original probability is chosen in the s a m e industry-size
classification if data are not available for the original sample m e m b e r . If no suitable substitute is
available, additional weight is assigned to a sample m e m b e r that is similar to the missing unit.

W a g e trends for selected occupational groups

Occupations and Earnings

Occupations used to compute wa g e trends are:

Occupations selected for study are c o m m o n 4o 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 material mo vement. Occupational classification is
based on a uniform set of job descriptions designed to tpke account of interestablishment variation
in duties within the s a m e job. Occupations 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 s o m e of the occupations listed and described, or for s o m e industry divisions within
occupations, are not presented in the A-series tables, because either (1) em ployment in the occupation
is too small to provide enough data to merit presentation, or (2) there is possibility of disclosure of
individual establishment data. Separate me n ' s and w o m e n ' s earnings data are not presented w h e n the
n u m b e r of workers not identified by sex is 20 percent or m o r e of the m e n or w o m e n identified in an
occupation. Earnings data not shown separately for industry divisions are included in all industries
c o mb in ed data, w h e r e shown. Likewise, data are included in the overall classification w h e n a sub­
classification of electronics technicians, secretaries, or truckdrivers is not shown or information to
subclassify is not available.
Occupational e m p l o y m e n t and earnings data are shown for full-time workers, i.e., those hired
to w o r k a regular weekly schedule. Earnings data exclude p r e m i u m pay for overtime and for w o r k on
weekends, holidays, and late shifts. Nonproduction bonuses are excluded, but cost-of-living allowances
and incentive bonuses are included. W e e k l y hours for office clerical and professional and technical
occupations refer to the standard w o r k w e e k (rounded to the nearest half hour) for which employees
receive regular straight-time salaries (exclusive of pay for overtime at regular and/or p r e m i u m rates).
Average weekly earnings for these occupations are rounded to the nearest half dollar.
These surveys m e a s u r e the level of occupational earnings in an area at a particular time.
C o mp ar is on s of individual occupational averages over time m a y not reflect expected wa g e changes.
Th e averages for individual jobs are affected by changes in wages and em pl oy me nt patterns. Fo r
example, proportions of w o rk er s em pl o y e d by high- or low-wage firms m a y change, or high-wage
w o rk er s m a y advance to better jobs and be replaced by n e w workers at lower rates. Such shifts in
em p l o y m e n t could decrease an occupational average even though mo st establishments in an area
increase wa ge s during the year. Tr en ds in earnings of occupational groupq, shown in table A-7,
are better indicators of w a g e trends than individual jobs within the groups.

Percent changes for individual areas in the p r o g r a m are computed as follows:
1. E a c h occupation is assigned a weight based on its proportionate em ployment in the selected
group of occupations in the base year.
2. These weights are used to compute group averages. E a c h occupation's average (mean)
earnings is multiplied by its weight. Th e products are totaled to obtain a group average.
3. T h e ratio of group averages for 2 consecutive years is comp ut ed by dividing the average
for the current year by the average for the earlier year. Th e results— expressed as a percent— less 100
is the percent change.
Establishment practices and supplementary w a g e provisions

1 Personal visits were on a 2-year Cycle before July 1972.
Z Included in tile 83 areas are 13’ studies conducted try the Bureau under contract.
These areas are Akron, Ohio; Austin. Tex.*, Binghamton,

approxim ately 70 areas at the request o f the Employment Standards Administration o f the U. S. Department of Labor.




Tabulations on selected establishment practices and supplementary wage provisions (B-series
tables) are not presented in this bulletin. Information for these, tabulations is collected at 3-year
intervals.1 These tabulations on m i n i m u m 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 The Cleveland Standard Metropolitan Statistical A rea , as defined by the O ffice o f Management and Budget through F ebru ary 1974, consists
of Cuyahoga, Geauga, Lake, and Medina Counties. The "w orkers within scope of study" estim ates shown in this table provide a reasonably accurate
description o f the size and composition of the labor fo rce included in the survey. Estim ates are not intended, however, fo r com parison with other
employment indexes to m easure employment trends or levels since (1) planning of wage surveys requires establishment data com piled considerably
in advance o f the payroll period studied, and (2) sm all establishments are excluded from the scope of the survey.
2 The 1967 edition of the Standard Industrial C lassification Manual was used in classifying establishments by industry division.
3 Includes a ll establishments with total employment at o r above the minimum lim itation. A l l outlets (within the area) of companies in industries
such as trade, finance, auto rep a ir service, and motion picture theaters are considered as 1 establishment.
4 Includes a ll w orkers in a ll establishments with total employment (within the area) at or above the minimum lim itation.
5 Abbreviated to "public u tilitie s" in the A - s e r ie s tables. Taxicabs and services incidental to water transportation w ere excluded. L o ca l
transit operations and an ele c tric utility (supplying less than half the ele c tric ity consumed in the Cleveland area) are m unicipally owned and are
excluded by definition from the scope of the survey.
6 Abbreviated to "fin an ce" in the A - s e r ie s tables.
7 Hotels and m otels; laundries and other personal services ; business s ervices ; automobile rep a ir, rental, and parking; motion pictures;
nonprofit m em bership organizations (excluding religious and charitable organizations); and engineering and architectural serv ic e s .




Appendix B. Occupational Descriptions
The prim a ry purpose of preparing job descriptions for the Bureau's wage surveys is to assist its fie ld staff in classifyin g into appropriate
occupations w orkers who are employed under a v a rie ty of p a yroll titles and different work arrangements fro m establishment to establishment and
fro m area to area. This perm its the grouping of occupational wage rates representing comparable job content. Because of this emphasis on
interestablishm ent and in terarea com parability of occupational content, the Bureau's job descriptions may d iffe r significantly from those in use in
individual establishments or those prepared for other purposes. In applying these job descriptions, the Bureau's field econom ists are instructed
to exclude working supervisors; apprentices; lea rn ers; beginners; train ees; and handicapped, pa rt-tim e, tem porary, and probationary w orkers.

OFFICE
B IL L E R , M ACHINE

CLE RKS, ACCOUNTING

P rep a res statements, b ills , and invoices on a machine other than an ordin ary or electrom atic
typ ew riter. May also keep records as to b illin gs or shipping charges or perform other c le r ic a l work
incidental to b illin g operations. F o r wage study purposes, b ille rs , machine, are cla ssified by type of
machine, as follow s:

P erfo rm s one or m ore accounting c le r ic a l tasks such as posting to registers and ledgers;
reconciling bank accounts; verifyin g the internal consistency, com pleteness, and mathematical accuracy
of accounting documents; assigning prescribed accounting distribution codes; examining and verifyin g
fo r c le ric a l accuracy various types of reports, lis ts , calculations, posting, etc.; or preparing simple or
assisting in preparing m ore com plicated journal vouchers. May work in either a manual or automated
accounting system.

B ille r , machine (billing machine). Uses a special billing machine (combination typing and
adding machine) to prepare bills and in voices from custom ers' purchase orders, internally prepared
o rd ers, shipping memorandums, etc. Usually involves application of predeterm ined discounts and
shipping charges and entry of n ecessary 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
la rg e number of carbon copies of the b ill being prepared and is often done on a fanfold machine.
B ille r f machine (bookkeeping m achine). Uses a bookkeeping machine (with o r without a
typ e w riter keyboard) to prepare cu stom ers' bills as part of the accounts receivable operation.
G en erally involves the simultaneous entry of figures on cu stom ers' ledger record. The machine
automatically accumulates figures on a number of v ertica l 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 cred it slips.

The work requ ires a knowledge of c le r ic a l methods and o ffice practices and procedures which
relates to the c le r ic a l processing and recording of transactions and accounting information. With
experience, the w orker typically becom es fa m ilia r with the bookkeeping and accounting term s and
procedures used in the assigned w ork, but is not required to have a knowledge of the form al principles
of bookkeeping and accounting.
Positions are cla ssified into le ve ls on the basis of the follow ing definitions.
Class A. Under general supervision, perform s accounting c le r ic a l operations which require
the application of experience and judgment, fo r exam ple, c le r ic a lly processing complicated or
nonrepetitive accounting transactions, selecting among a substantial va rie ty of prescribed accounting
codes and classification s, or tracing transactions though previous accounting actions to determine
source of discrepancies. May be assisted by one or m ore class B accounting clerks.

B O O K KEEPING -M A C H INE O PE R ATO R
Operates a bookkeeping machine (with or without a typew riter keyboard) to keep a re cord of
business transactions.

Class B . Under close supervision, follow ing detailed instructions and standardized procedures,
perform s one or m ore routine accounting c le r ic a l operations, such as posting to ledgers, cards, or
worksheets where identification of items and locations of postings are clea rly indicated; checking
accuracy and completeness of standardized and repetitive records or accounting documents; and coding
documents using a few p rescribed accounting codes.

Class A . Keeps a set of records requiring a knowledge of and experience in basic bookkeeping
p rin cip les, and fa m ilia rity 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
p repa re consolidated rep orts, balance sheets, and other records by hand.

CLE R K , F IL E

Class B . Keeps a record of one o r m ore phases or sections of a set of records usually
requiring little knowledge of basic bookkeeping. Phases or sections include accounts payable, pa yroll,
cu stom ers' accounts (not including a sim ple type of billing described under b ille r , machine), cost
distribution, expense distribution, inventory control, etc. May check or assist in preparation of tr ia l
balances and prepare control sheets fo r the accounting department.




F ile s , cla ssifies, and re trieves m a terial in an established filin g system. May perform
