DO ENT raiMOKJN CUM DEC* 1S75 Dayton & :..jmtgonieijtCa, Public Ubraty. U.S. DEPARTMENT OF LABOR _ Bureau of Labor Statistics Preface This bulletin provides results of a June 1975 survey of occupational earnings in the Greenville— Spartanburg, South Carolina, Standard Metropolitan Statistical A rea (Greenville, Pickens, and Spartanburg Counties), The survey was made as part of the Bureau of Labor Statistics' annual area wage survey program. The program 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 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. Department of Labor to make wage determinations under the Service Contract A ct of 1965. Currently, 82 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 establishment 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 summary bulletin presents national and regional estim ates, projected from individual metropolitan area data. The Greenville— Spartanburg survey was conducted by the Bureau's regional office in Atlanta, G a „ under the general direction of Donald M . Cruse, Associate A ssistant Regional Director for Operations. The survey could not have been accomplished without the cooperation of the many firm s whose wage and salary data provided the basis for the statistical infor mation in this bulletin. The Bureau wishes to express sincere appreciation for the cooperation received. AREA WAGE SURVEY B u lle tin 1 8 5 0 - 4 2 U.S. D E P A R T M E N T OF LA BO R, John T .

Introduction and material movement. In the 31 largest survey areas, tables A -l a through A -6a provide similar data for establishments employing 500 workers or more. This area is 1 of 82 in which the U.S. Department of Labor's Bureau of Labor Statistics conducts surveys of occupational earnings and related benefits on an areawide basis. In this area, data were ob tained by a combination of personal visit, mail questionnaire, and telephone interview. Representative establishments within six broad industry divisions were contacted: Manufacturing; transportation, com munication, and other 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 employment in the occupations studied. Separate tabulations are provided for each of the broad industry divisions which meet publication criteria. Following the occupational wage tables is table A - 7 which provides percent changes in average earnings of office clerical work e rs, electronic data processing workers, industrial nurses, skilled maintenance workers, and unskilled plant workers. This measure of wage trends eliminates changes in average earnings caused by employ ment shifts among establishments as well as turnover of establishments included in survey samples. Where possible, data are presented for sill industries, manufacturing, and nonmanufacturing. Appendix A discusses this wage trend measure. A -series tables Appendixes Tables A - 1 through A -6 provide estimates of straight-time hourly or weekly earnings for workers in occupations common to a variety of manufacturing and nonmanufacturing industries. Occupations were selected from the following categories: (a) Office clerical, (b) pro fessional and technical, (c) maintenance and powerplant, and (d) custodial This bulletin has two appendixes. Appendix A describes the methods and concepts used in the area wage survey program and provides information on the scope of the survey. Appendix B provides job descriptions used by Bureau field economists to classify workers in occupations for which straight-time earnings information is presented.

Appendix A Area wage and related benefits data are obtained by personal visits of Bureau field represent atives at 3-year intervals.1 In each of the intervening years, information on employment and occupational earnings is collected by a combination of personal visit; mail questionnaire, and telephone interview from establishments participating in the previous survey. In each of the 8 2 2 areas currently surveyed, data are obtained from 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 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 employment in the occupations studied. Separate tabulations are provided for each of the broad industry divisions which meet 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 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 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 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 establishments within the scope of the study and not the number actually surveyed. Because occupational structures among establish ments 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. 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 establishments 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 classification if data are not available for 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. Wage trends for selected occupational groups Occupations and Earnings Occupations used to compute wage trends are: 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 material movement. 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 occupations, 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. Separate 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 all industries combined data, where shown. Likewise, data are included in the overall classification when a sub classification of electronics technicians, secretaries, or truckdrivers is not shown or information 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 occupational average even though most establishments in an area increase wages during the year. Trends in earnings of occupational groupq, shown in table A -7 , are better indicators of wage trends than individual jobs within the groups. The Annual rates span between increased at percents of change in table A -7 relate to wage changes between the indicated dates. of increase, where shown, reflect the amount of increase for 12 months when the time surveys was other than 12 months. Annual rates are based on the assumption that wages a constant rate between surveys.

Each occupation is assigned a weight based on its proportionate employment in the selected group of occupations 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 results— expressed as a percent— less 100 is the Dercent change.

In addition, the Bureau conducts more limited area studies in approximately 70 areas at the request of the Employment Standards Administration of 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 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.

The "workers within scope of study" estimates shown in this table provide a reasonably accurate description of the size and composition of the labor force included in the survey. Estimates are not intended, however, for comparison with other employment indexes to measure employment trends or levels since (1) planning of wage surveys requires establishment data compiled considerably in advance of the payroll period studied, and (2) small establishments are excluded from the scope of the survey. 2 The 1967 edition of the Standard Industrial Classification Manual was used in classifying establishments by industry division. 3 Includes all establishments with total employment at or above the minimum limitation. A ll outlets (within the area) of companies in industries such as trade, finance, auto repair service, and motion picture theaters are considered as 1 establishment. 4 Includes all workers in all establishments with total employment (within the area) at or above the minimum limitation. 5 Abbreviated to "public utilities" in the A -s e r ie s tables. Taxicabs and services incidental to water transportation were excluded. 6 This division is represented in estimates for "a ll industries" and "nonmanufacturing" in the A -s e r ie s tables. Separate presentation of data is not made for one or more of the following reasons: (1) Employment is too small to provide enough data to merit separate study, (2) the sample was not designed initially to permit separate presentation, (3) response was insufficient or inadequate to permit separate presentation, and (4) there is possibility of disclosure of individual establishment data. 7 Hotels and motels; laundries and other personal services; business services; automobile repair, rental, and parking; motion pictures; nonprofit membership organizations (excluding religious and charitable organizations); and engineering and architectural services.
