Occupational employment estim ates represent the total in all establishments within the scope of the study and not the number actu ally surveyed. Because of differences in occupational structure among establishments, the 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 m aterially the accuracy of the earnings data. Establishment P ractices and Supplementary Wage Provisions Tabulations on selected establishment practices and supple mentary wage provisions (B -s e r ie s tables) are not presented in this bulletin. Information for these tabulations is collected biennially. These tabulations on minimum entrance salaries for inexperienced women office w orkers; shift differentials; scheduled weekly hours; paid holidays; paid vacations; and health, insurance, and pension plans are presented (in the B -s e r ie s tables) in previous bulletins for this area.

Wage Trends for Selected Occupational Groups shows the percentage change. The index is the product of multiplying the base year relative (100) by the relative for the next succeeding year and continuing to multiply (compound) each y e a r's relative by the previous y ear's index. Presented in table 2 are indexes and percentages of change in average salaries of office clerica l workers and industrial nurses, and in average earnings of selected plant worker groups. The indexes are a measure of wages at a given tim e, expressed as a percent of wages during the base period. Subtracting 100 from the index yields the percentage change in wages from the base period to the date of the index. The percentages of change or increase relate to wage changes between the indicated dates. Annual rates of increase, where shown, reflect the amount of increase for 12 months when the time period between surveys was other than 12 months. These computations were based on the assumption that wages increased at a constant rate between surveys. These estim ates are m easures of change in aver ages for the area; they are not intended to m easure average pay changes in the establishments in the area. For office clerica l workers and industrial nurses, the wage trends relate to regular weekly salaries for the normal workweek, exclusive of earnings for overtim e. For plant worker groups, they m easure changes in average straight-tim e hourly earnings, excluding premium pay for overtim e and for work on weekends, holidays, and late shifts. The percentages are based on data for selected key occu pations and include m ost of the num erically important jobs within each group. Limitations of Data Method of Computing The indexes and percentages of change, as m easures of change in area averages, are influenced by: (1) general salary and wage changes, (2) m erit or other increases in pay received by indi vidual workers while in the same job, and (3) changes in average wages due to changes in the labor force resulting from labor turn over, force expansions, force reductions, and changes in the propor tions of workers employed by establishments with different pay lev els. Changes in the labor force can cause increases or decreases in the occupational averages without actual wage changes. It is conceivable that even though all establishments in an area gave wage in creases, average wages may have declined because low er-paying establishments entered the area or expanded their work fo rce s. Sim ilarly, wages may have remained relatively constant, yet the averages for an area may have risen considerably because higher-paying establishments entered the area. Each of the following key occupations within an occupational group was assigned a constant weight based on its proportionate em ployment in the occupational group: Office clerical (men and women): Office clerical (m en and women)— Skilled maintenance (men): C a rp en ters Continued Bookkeeping-machine Electricians Secretaries operators, class B Machinists Stenographers, general Clerks, accounting, classes Mechanics Stenographers, senior A and B Mechanics (automotive) Switchboard opera tots, classes Cleiks, file, classes Painters A and B A , B, and C Pipefitters Tabulating-machine operators, Cleiks, order Tool and die makers class B Cleiks, payroll Typists, classes A and B Comptometer operators Unskilled plant (men): Keypunch operators, classes Janitors, porters, and cleaners Industrial nurses (men and women): A and B Laborers, material handling Nurses, industrial (registered) Office boys and girls The use of constant employment weights elim inates the effect of changes in the proportion of workers represented in each job in cluded in the data. The percentages of change reflect only changes in average pay for straight-tim e hours. They are not influenced by changes in standard work schedules, as such, or by premium pay for overtim e. Where n ecessary, data were adjusted to remove from the indexes and percentages of change any significant effect caused by changes in the scope of the survey. The average (mean) earnings for each occupation were m ulti plied by the occupational \yeight, and the products for all occupations in the group were totaled. The aggregates for 2 consecutive years were related by dividing the aggregate for the later year by the aggre gate for the earlier year. The resultant relative, le ss 100 percent, 4 5 T a b le 2.
