These areas are Akron, Ohio; Birmingham, Ala.; Norfolk— Virginia Beach— Portsmouth and Newport News— Hampton, Va. — N. C.; and Syracuse, 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. 11 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. Electronic data processing Skilled maintenance Computer systems analysts, classes A, B, and C Computer programmers, classes A, B, and C Computer operators, classes A, B, and C Carpenters Electricians Painters Machinists Mechanics (machinery) Mechanics (motor vehicle) Pipefitters Tool and die makers 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. Industrial nurses Unskilled plant Registered industrial nurses Janitors, porters, and cleaners Material handling laborers Wage trends for selected occupational groups Percent changes for individual areas iti 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. The percent increases presented in table A-7 are based on changes in average hourly earnings of men and women in establishments reporting the trena 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. 2. Each occupation is assigned a weight based on its pro portionate employment in the occupational group in the base year. 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 shown, (it is assumed that wages increase at a constant rate between surveys.) 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. Occupations used to compute wage trends are: Office clerical Office clerical— Continued Secretaries Stenographers, general Stenographers, senior Typists, classes A and B F ile clerks, classes A, B, and C Messengers Switchboard operators Order clerks Accounting clerks, classes A and B Bookkeeping -machine operators,« class B Payroll clerks Keypunch operators, classes A and B 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. For a more detailed description of the method used to compute these wage trends, see 'Improving Area Wage Survey Indexes, " Monthly Labor Review, January 1973, pp. 52-57. Establishment practices and supplementary wage provisions Tabulations on selected establishment practices and supplementary wage provisions (B -series tables) are not presented in this bulletin. Infor mation for these tabulations is collected at 3-year intervals. These tabu lations 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. 12 Appendix table 1.

The "w ork ers 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. Estim ates are not intended, however, for comparison with other employment indexes to m easure employment trends o r levels since (1) planning o f • wage surveys requires establishment data compiled considerably in advance of the payroll period studied, and (2) sm all establishments are excluded fi'om the scope of the survey. 2 The 1972 edition of the Standard Industrial Classification Manual was used in classifying establishments by industry division. However, all government operations are excluded fro m the scope of the survey. 3 Includes a ll establishments with total employment at o r above the minimum limitation. A ll outlets (within the a re a ) of companies in industries such as trade, finance^ auto rep air service, and motion picture theaters are considered as 1 establishment. 8 21 11 20 6 4 Includes a ll w orkers in a ll establishments with total employment (within the a re a ) at o r above the minimum limitation. s Abbreviated to "public utilities" in the A -s e r ie s tables. Taxicabs and services incidental to w ater transportation are excluded. 6 This division is represented in estimates for " a ll industries" and "non manufacturing" in the A -s e r ie s tables. Separate presentation of data is not made for one or m ore of the following reasons: (1) Employment is too sm all to provide enough data to m erit separate study, (2) the sample was not designed initially to perm it 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 m otels; laundries and other personal services; business services; automobile rep a ir, rental, and parking; motion pictures; nonprofit membership organizations (excluding religious and charitable organizations); and engineering and architectural serv ices. 13 Appendix B. Occupational Descriptions The prim ary purpose of preparing job descriptions for the Bu reau's wage surveys is to assist its field staff in classifying into appro priate occupations workers who are employed under a variety of payroll titles and different work arrangements from establishment to establish ment and from area to area. This permits the grouping of occupational wage rates representing comparable job content. Because of this empha sis 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 economists are instructed to exclude working supervisors; apprentices; learners; begin ners; and part-time, temporary, and probationary workers. Handicapped workers whose earnings are reduced because of their handicap are also excluded. Trainees are excluded from the survey except for those r e ceiving on-the-job training in some of the lower level professional and technical occupations. Office SECRETARY SECRETARY— Continued Assigned as personal secretary, normally to one individual. Main tains a close and highly responsive relationship to the day-to-day work of the supervisor. Works fa irly independently receiving a minimum of detailed supervision and guidance. Perform s varied clerical and secretarial duties, usually including most of the following.: May also perform other clerical and secretarial tasks of comparable nature and difficulty. The work typically requires knowledge of office routine and understanding of the organization, programs, and procedures related to the work of the supervisor. Exclusions a. Receives telephone calls, personal callers, and incoming mail, answers routine inquiries, and routes technical inquiries to the proper persons; b. Establishes, maintains, and revises the supervisor's files; c. Maintains the supervisor's calendar and makes appointments as instructed; Not all positions that are titled "secretary" possess the above char acteristics. Examples of positions which are excluded from the definition are as follows: a. Positions which do not meet the "personal" secretary concept described above; b. Stenographers not fully trained in secretarial-type duties; d. Relays messages from supervisor to subordinates; e. Reviews correspondence, memoranda, and reports prepared by others for the supervisor's signature to assure procedural and typographic accuracy; f. Perform s stenographic and typing work. c. Stenographers serving as office assistants to a group of profes sional, technical, or managerial persons; d. Secretary positions in which the duties are either substant more routine or substantially more complex and responsible that those char acterized in the definition; S E C R E T A R Y — C on tin u ed S E C R E T A R Y — C ontinu ed E x c lu s io n s — C ontinued C la s s C e.

Monitors and operates the control console of a digital computer to process data according to operating instructions, usually prepared by a pro grammer. Work includes most of the following: Studies instructions to determine equipment setup and operations; loads equipment with required items (tape reels, cards, etc.); switches necessary auxiliary equipment into circuit, and starts and operates computer; makes adjustments to computer to correct operating problems and meet special conditions; reviews errors made during operation and determines cause or refers problem to supervisor or programmer; and maintains operating records. May test and assist in correcting program. For wage study purposes, programmers are classified as follows: Class A . Works independently or under only general direction on complex problems which require competence in all phases of programming concepts and practices. Working from diagrams and charts which identify the nature of desired results, major processing steps to be accomplished, and the relationships between various steps of the problem solving routine; plans the full range of programming actions needed to efficiently utilize the computer system in achieving desired end products. At this level, programming is difficult because computer equipment must be organized to produce several interrelated but diverse products from numerous and diverse data elements. A wide variety and extensive number of internal processing actions must occur. This requires such actions as development of common operations which can be reused, establishment of linkage points between operations, adjustments to data when program require ments exceed computer storage capacity, and substantial manipulation and re sequencing of data elements to form a highly integrated program. 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 programs, or on simple segments of complex programs. Programs (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. May guide or instruct lower level programmers. Class C. Makes practical applications of programming practices and concepts usually learned in formal training courses. Assignments are designed to develop competence in the application of standard procedures to routine problems. Receives close supervision on new aspects of assignments; and work is reviewed to verify its accuracy and conformance with required procedures. For wage study purposes, computer operators are classified as follows: Class A . Operates independently, or under only general direction, a computer running programs with most of the following characteristics: New programs are frequently tested and introduced; scheduling requirements are of critical importance to minimize downtime; the programs are of complex design so that identification of error source often requires a working knowledge of the total program, and alternate programs may not be available. May give direction and guidance to lower level operators. Class B. Operates independently, or under only general direction, a computer running programs with most of the following characteristics: Most of the programs are established production runs, typically run on a regularly recurring basis; there is little or no testing of new programs required; alternate programs are provided in case original program needs major change or cannot be corrected within a reasonably short time. In common error situations, diagnoses cause and takes corrective action. This usually involves applying previously programmed corrective steps, or using standard correction techniques. OR Operates under direct supervision a computer running programs or segments of programs with the characteristics described for class A. May assist a higher level operator by independently performing less difficult tasks assigned, and performing difficult tasks following detailed instructions and with frequent review of operations performed. expected ability to received operator Class C.
