Appendix A. Changes in Occupational Descriptions Since the Bureau's last survey, occupational descriptions for drafts man, secretary, and switchboard operator were revised in order to obtain salary information for more specific categories. Secretary. The revised descriptions for secretary (classes A, B, C, and D) classify these workers according to levels of responsibility. The size of the organization and the scope of the supervisor's position are con sidered in distinguishing these levels. Data published under the composite title of secretary are not comparable to data previously published. Switchboard operator. The revised description for switchboard operator arranges these workers into two defined classes (A and B) instead 22 of a single category, clarifying the criteria of types of calls handled and types of information provided. The combination of class A and class B data, where both are published, is comparable to the single designation, if previously published. Draftsman. The revised descriptions fcr draftsman (classes A, B, and C; and draftsman-tracer) replace the previcus designations for drafts man (leader, senior, and junior; and tracer) anc’ emphasize the distinction between drafting and design skills. Therefore, data presented for any of these occupations are not comparable to data previously published. The revised occupational descriptions aie 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 employed 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 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, beginners, trainees, handicapped, part-tim e, temporary, and probationary workers.

NOTE: The term "corporate officer," used in the level definitions following, refers to those officials who have a significant corporate-wide policymaking role with regard to major company activities. The title "vice president, " though normally indicative of this role, does not in all cases identify such positions.
