Occupational descriptions__ 27 30 Introduction manufacturing and nonmanufacturing industries. The occupations are defined in Appendix B. For the 31 largest survey areas, tables A - 10 through A - 15 provide similar data for establishments employing 500 workers or m ore. This area is 1 of 72 in which the U.S. Department of Labor's Bureau of Labor Statistics conducts surveys of occupational earnings and related benefits. (See list of areas on inside back cover.) In each area, earnings data for selected occupations (A -se r ie s tables) are collected annually. Information on establishment practices and supplementary wage benefits (B -se r ie s tables) is obtained every third year. This report has no B -se r ie s tables. Table A - l provides percent changes in average hourly earnings of office clerical workers, electronic data processing workers, industrial nurses, skilled maintenance trades w orkers, and unskilled plant workers. Where possible, data are presented for all industries and for manufac turing and nonmanufacturing separately. Data are not presented for skilled maintenance workers in nonmanufacturing because the number of workers employed in this occupational group in nonmanufacturing is too sm all to warrant separate presentation. This table provides a measure of wage trends after elimination of changes in average earnings caused by employ ment shifts among establishments as well as turnover of establishments included in survey samples. For further details, see appendix A. Each year after all individual area wage surveys have been co m pleted, two summary bulletins are issued. The first brings together data for each metropolitan area surveyed; the second presents national and regional estim ates, projected from individual metropolitan area data, for all Standard Metropolitan Statistical A reas 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 m arkets, 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, including wage and salary administration, collective bargaining, and assistance in determining plant location. Survey results also are used by the U.S. Depart ment of Labor to make wage determinations under the Service Contract Act of 1965. Tables A - 8 and A -9 provide for the first time m easures of average pay relationships within establishments. These m easures may differ con siderably from the pay relationships of overall averages published in tables A - l through A - 6. See appendix A for details. Appendixes A -s e r ie s tables Appendix A describes the methods and concepts used in the area wage survey program and provides information on the scope of the survey. Tables A - l through A -6 provide estimates of straight-tim e weekly or hourly earnings for workers in occupations common to a variety of Appendix B provides job descriptions presentatives to classify workers by occupation. 2 used by Bureau field re Earnings: All establishments Table A-1.

The median designates position— half of the workers receive the same or more and half receive the same or less than the rate shown. The middle range is defined by two rates of pay: a fourth of the workers earn the same or less than the lower of these rates and a fourth earn the same or more than the higher rate. 26 3 Earnings data relate only to workers whose sex identification was provided by the establishment. 4 Excludes premium pay for overtime and for work on weekends, holidays, and late shifts. ’ Estimates for periods ending prior to 1976 relate to men only for skilled maintenance and unskilled plant workers. All other estimates relate to men and women. 6 Data do not meet publication criteria or data not available. Appendix A . Scope and Method of Survey In each of the 72 1 areas currently surveyed, the Bureau obtains wages and related benefits data from representative establishments within six broad industry divisions: Manufacturing; transportation, communication, and other public utilities; wholesale trade; retail trade; finance, insurance, and real estate; and se r v ic e s. Government operations and the construction and extractive industries are excluded. Establishments having fewer than a prescribed number of workers are also excluded because of insufficient employment in the occupations studied. Appendix table 1 shows the number of establishm ents and workers estimated to Ve within the scope of this survey, as w ell as the number actually studied. Bureau field representatives obtain data by personal visits at 3 - year intervals. In each of the two intervening years, information on employment and occupational earnings only is collected by a combination of personal visit, m ail questionnaire, and telephone interview from establishments participating in the previous survey. A sam ple of the establishments in the scope of the survey is selected for study prior to each personal visit survey. This sample, less estab lishm ents which go out of business or are no longer within the industrial scope of the survey, is retained for the following two annual surveys. In m ost ca se s, establishm ents new to the area are not considered in the scope of the survey until the selection of a sample for a personal visit survey. The sampling procedures involve detailed stratification of all estab lishm ents within the scope of an individual area survey by industry and number of em ployees. F rom this stratified universe a probability sample is selected, with each establishment having a predetermined chance of se lection. To obtain optimum accuracy at minimum cost, a greater proportion of large than sm all establishments is selected. When data are combined, each establishm ent is weighted according to its probability of selection so that unbiased estim ates are generated. F or example, if one out of four establishm ents is selected, it is given a weight of 4 to represent itself plus three o th ers. An alternate of the same original probability is chosen in the sam e in d u stry-size classification if data are not available from the original sam ple m e m b er. If no suitable substitute is available, additional weight is assigned to a sample m em ber that is sim ilar to the m issing 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 cle rica l; (2) professional and technical; (3) maintenance, toolroom , * * Included in the 72 areas are 2 studies conducted by die Bureau under contract. These areas are Akron, Ohio and Poughkeepsie-Kingston-Newburgh, 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. and powerplant; and (4) m aterial 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. 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 some of the occupations listed and described, or for some industry divisions within the scope of the survey, are not presented in the A -se r ie s tables because either (1) employment in the occupation is too small to provide enough data to m erit presentation, or (2) there is possibility of disclosure of individual establishment data. Separate m en's and women's earnings data are not presented when the number of workers not identified by sex is 20 percent or m ore 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, for occupations with m ore than one level, data are included in the overall classification when a subclassification is not shown or information to subclassify is not available. Occupational employment and earnings data are shown for full-tim e w orkers, 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-tim e 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. Vertical lines within the distribution of workers on some A -tab les indicate a change in the size of the class intervals. These surveys m easure the level of occupational earnings in an area at a particular tim e. Comparisons of individual occupational averages over tim e m ay 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 firm s 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 am occu pational average even though m ost 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. Percent changes for individual areas in the program are computed as follows: 1. Average earnings are computed for each occupation for the 2 years being compared. The averages are derived from earnings in those establishments which are in the survey both years; it is assumed that employment remains unchanged. 2. Each occupation is assigned a weight based on its pro portionate employment in the occupational group in the base year. 3. These weights are used to compute group averages. Each occupation's average earnings (computed in step 1) is multiplied by its weight. The products are totaled to Obtain a group average. Wage trends for selected occupational groups The percent increases presented in table A -7 are based on changes in average hourly earnings of men and women in 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 employ ment 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 may 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 also shown. (It is assumed that wages increase at a constant rate between surveys.) Occupations used to compute wage trends are: Office clerical Electronic data processing— Continued Secretaries Stenographers, senior Stenographers, general Typists, classes A and B File clerks, classes A , B , and C M essengers Switchboard operators Order clerks, classes A and B Accounting clerks, classes A and B Payroll clerks Key entry operators, classes A and B Computer operators, classes A , B, and C Electronic data processing Computer system s analysts, cla sses A , B , and C Computer program m ers, classes A , B, and C Industrial nurses Registered industrial nurses Skilled maintenance Carpenters Electricians Painters Machinists Mechanics (machinery) Mechanics (m otor vehicle) Pipefitters Tool and die makers Unskilled plant Janitors, porters, and cleaners Material handling laborers 4. 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 result— 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 In dexes," Monthly Labor Review, January 1973, pp. 52-57. Average pay relationships within establishments Relative measures of occupational pay are presented in table A -8 for white-collar occupations and in table A -9 for blue-collar occupations. These relative values reflect differences in pay between occupations within individual establishments. Relative pay values are computed by dividing an establishment's average earnings for an occupation being compared by the average for another occupation (designated as 100) and multiplying the quotient by 100. For example, if janitors in a firm average $4 an hour and forklift operators $ 5 , forklift operators have a relative pay value of 125 compared with janitors. ($5 -f $4 = 1.25, x 100 = 125.) In combining the relatives of the individual establishments to arrive at an overall average, each establish ment is considered to have as many relatives as it has weighted workers in the two jobs being compared. Pay relationships based on overall averages may differ considerably because of the varying contribution of high- and low-wage establishments to the averages. For example, the overall average hourly earnings for forklift operators may be 50 percent more than the average for janitors because the average for forklift operators may be strongly influenced by earnings in high-wage establishments while the average for janitors may be strongly influenced by earnings in low-wage establishments. In such a case, the intra-establishment relationship will indicate a much sm aller difference in earnings. Establishment practices and supplementary wage provisions Tabulations on selected establishment practices and supplementary wage provisions (B -series tables) are not presented in this bulletin. Informa tion for these tabulations is collected at 3-year intervals.

Appendix B. Occupational Descriptions The primary purpose of preparing job descriptions for the Bu reau's wage surveys is to assist its field representatives 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 grouping occupational wage rates representing comparable job content. Because of- this em phasis 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 representatives are instructed to exclude working supervisors; apprentices; and parttim e, temporary, and probationary w orkers. Handicapped workers whose earnings are reduced because of their handicap are also excluded. Learners, beginners, and trainees, unless specifically included in the job descriptions, are excluded. Office SECRETARY SECRETARY— Continued Assigned as a personal secretary, normally to one individual. Main tains a close and highly responsive relationship to the day-to-day activities of the supervisor. Works fairly independently receiving a minimum of detailed supervision and guidance. Perform s varied clerical and secretarial duties requiring a knowledge of office routine and understanding of the organization, program s, and procedures related to the work of the supervisor. Exclusions— Continued Exclusions. Not all positions that are titled "s e c r e ta r y " possess the above characteristics. Examples of positions which are excluded from the definition are as follows: a. Positions which do not meet the "p erso n a l" secretary concept described above; b. Stenographers not fully trained in secretarial-type duties; c. Stenographers serving as office assistants to a group of pro fessional, technical, or managerial persons; d. A ssist ant-type positions which entail more difficult or more responsible technical, administrative, or supervisory duties which are not typical of secretarial work, e .g ., Administrative A ssistant, or Executive Assistant: e. Positions which do not fit any of the situations listed in the sections below titled "L e v e l of S u p e r v iso r," e.g., secretary to the president of a company that em ploys, in all, over 5 ,0 0 0 persons; f. Trainees. Classification by Level Secretary jobs which meet the required characteristics are matched at one of five levels according to (a) the level of the secreta ry 's supervisor within the company's organizational structure and, (b) the level of the secretary's responsibility. The tabulation following the explanations of these two factors indicates the level of the secretary for each combination of the factors. Lievel of Secretary's Supervisor (LS) LS—1 a. Secretary to the supervisor or head of a sm all organizational unit (e .g ., fewer than about 25 or 30 persons); or SECRETARY----Continued SECRETARY— Continued Classification by Level— Continued Classification by Level— Continued b. Secretary to a nonsupervisory staff specialist, professional em ployee, administrative officer or assistant, skilled technician or expert. (NOTE: Many companies a s s i g n stenographers, rather than secretaries as described above, to this level of supervisory or nonsupervisory worker.) LS—2 a. Secretary to an executive or managerial person whose respon sibility is not equivalent to one of the specific level situations in the definition for LS—3, but whose organizational unit normally numbers at least several dozen employees and is usually divided into organizational segments which are often, in turn, further subdivided. In some companies, this level includes a wide range of organizational echelons; in others, only one or two; or b. Secretary to the head of an individual plant, factory, etc., (or other equivalent level of official) that em ploys, in all, fewer than 5 ,0 0 0 persons. LS—3 NOTE: The term "corporate o fficer" used in the above LS definition refers to those officials who have a significant corporatewide policymaking role with regard to major company activities. The title "vice president," though normally indicative of this role, does not in all cases identify such positions. Vice presidents whose primary responsibility is to act personally on individual cases or transactions (e .g ., approve or deny individual loan or credit actions; administer individual trust accounts; directly supervise a clerical staff) are not considered to be "corporate o fficers" for purposes of applying the definition. Level of Secretary's Responsibility (LR) This factor evaluates the nature of the work relationship between the secretary and the supervisor, and the extent to which the secretary is expected to exercise initiative and judgment. Secretaries should be matched at LR—1 or LR—2 described below according to their level of responsibility. LR—1. P erform s varied secretarial duties including or comparable to most of the following: a. Secretary to the chairman of the board or president of a company that em ploys, in a ll, fewer than 100 persons; or a. Answers telephones, coming m ail. b.

Screens telephone and personal ca llers, determining which can be handled by the supervisor's subordinates or other offices, a. Secretary to the chairman of the board or president of a company that em ploys, in a ll, over 100 but fewer than 5 ,0 0 0 persons; or b. Secretary to a corporate officer (other than the chairman of the board or president) of a company that employs, in all, over 5 ,0 0 0 but fewer than 25, 000 persons; or c. Secretary to the head, immediately below the corporate officer lev el, of a m ajor segment or subsidiary of a company that em ploys, in a ll, over 25, 000 persons. personal c.

May provide functional direction to lower level programmers who are assigned to assist. Class B . Works independently or under only general direction on relatively simple program s, or on simple segments of complex programs. Program s (or segments) usually process information to produce data in two or three varied sequences or formats. 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 recordkeeping operations. OR Works on complex programs (as described for class A) under close direction of a higher level programmer or supervisor. May assist higher level programmer by independently performing less difficult tasks assigned, and performing more difficult tasks under fairly close direction.
