1 Standard hours reflect the workweek for which em ployees receive their regular straight-tim e salaries (exclusive of pay for overtim e at regular an d /or prem ium rates), and
the earnings correspond to these weekly hours.
2 The mean is computed for each job by totaling the earnings of all w orkers and dividing by the number of w orkers.
The median designates position— half of the em ployees
surveyed receive m ore than the rate shown; half receive less than the rate shown.
The middle range is defined by 2 rates of pay; a fourth of the w orkers earn le ss than the lower
of these rates and a fourth earn more than the higher rate.
3 May include w orkers other than those presented separately.

The revised descriptions for secretary (classes A , B, C, D) classify

The revised occupational descriptions are included in appendix B.

Appendix B. 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 em ployed 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 com parability 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-tim e, temporary, and probationary workers.

following, refers to those officials who have a significant corporate-wide
policymaking role with regard to major company activities.
