Footnotes 1 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 me di an designates position— half of the employees surveyed receive m o r e and half receive less than the rate shown. The 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. 3 Earnings data relate only to workers whose sex identification wa s provided by the establishment. 4 Excludes p r e m i u m pay for overtime and for wo rk on weekends, holidays, and late shifts. 17 Appendix A A r e a w age and r ela ted ben efits data ar e obtain ed by p e r s o n a l v is it s o f Bu reau fie ld r e p r e s e n t a t iv e s at 3 - y e a r i n t e r v a ls . 1 In each o f the i n t e r vening y e a r s , in fo rm a t io n on e m p lo y m e n t and o c cu p a t io n a l ea r n in g s is c o l le c te d by a c o m b in a tio n o f p e r s o n a l v is it , m a i l q u e s t io n n a ir e , and telephone in te r v ie w f r o m e s t a b lis h m e n t s p a rticip atin g in the p r e v io u s s u r v e y . d e s c r i b e d , o r f o r s o m e in d u str y d iv is io n s within the s c o p e of the su r v e y , ar e not p r e s e n te d in the A - s e r i e s t a b le s , b e c a u s e either (1) e m p loy m en t in the o c cu p a t io n is too s m a ll to p r o v i d e enough data to m e r i t pr esen ta tion , or (2) th er e is p o s s i b i l i t y o f d i s c l o s u r e o f in div id ual estab lis h m en t data.
