O ccu p a tio n a l D e scrip tio n s
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
BILLER, MACHINE

Biller, machine (billing machine). Uses a special billing machine (Moon Hopkins, Elliott
Fisher, Burroughs, etc., which are combination typing and adding machines) to prepare bills
and invoices from customers' purchase orders, internally prepared orders, shipping memo
randums, etc. Usually involves application of predetermined discounts and shipping charges,
and entry of necessary 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 large number of carbon copies of the bill being prepared and is often done on a fanfold
machine.
Biller, machine (bookkeeping machine). Uses abookkeeping machine (Sundstrand, Elliott
Fisher, Remington Rand, etc., which may or may not have typewriter keyboard) to prepare
customers' bills as part of the accounts receivable operation. Generally involves the simulta
neous entry of figures on customers' ledger record. The machine automatically accumulates
figures on a number of vertical columns and computes, and usually prints automatically the
debit or credit balances. Does not involve a knowledge of bookkeeping. Works from uniform

principles of bookkeeping and accounting.
CLERK. ACCOUNTING—Continued
Positions are classified into levels on the basis of the following definitions.
Class A. Under general supervision, performs accounting clerical operations which

quent use of a Comptometer but, in which, use of this machine is incidental to performance of
other duties.
KEYPUNCHOPERATOR
Operates a keypunch machine to record or verify alphabetic and/or numeric data on

those officials who have a significant corporate-wide policymaking role with regard to major

a sequence of detailed instructions which are required to solve the problems by automatic data
processing equipment. Working from charts or diagrams, the programer develops the precise
instructions which, when entered into the computer system in coded language, cause the manipu
lation of data to achieve desired results. Work involves most of the following: Applies knowledge
of computer capabilities, mathematics, logic employed by computers, and particular subject matter
involved to analyze charts and diagrams of the problem to be programed. Develops sequence
of program steps, writes detailed flow charts to show order in which data will be processed;
