Public Library U S. DEPARTMENT OF LABOR ^ . B u r e a u of Labor Statistics Preface This bulletin provides results of a June 1975 survey of occupational earnings and supplementary wage benefits in the Poughkeepsie-Kingston—Newburgh, N .Y ., Standard M etro politan Statistical A rea (Dutchess, Orange, and Ulster Counties). The survey was made as part of the Bureau of Labor Statistics' annual area wage survey program . The program is designed to yield data for individual metropolitan areas, as well as national and regional estimates for all Standard Metropolitan Statistical A reas in the Upited States, excluding Alaska and Hawaii. A m ajor consideration in the area wage survey program is the need to describe the level and movement of wages in a variety of labor m arkets, through the analysis of (1) the level and distribution of wages by occupation, and (2) the movement of wages by occupational category and skill level. The program develops information that may be used for many purposes, including wage and salary administration, collective bargaining, and assistance in determining plant location. Survey results also are used by the U .S. Department of Labor to make wage determinations under the Service Contract Act of 1965. Currently, 82 areas are included in the program . (See list of areas on inside back cover.) In each area, occupational earnings data are collected annually. Information on establishment practices and supplementary wage benefits is obtained every third year. Each year after all individual area wage surveys have been completed, two summary bulletins are issued. The first brings together data for each metropolitan area surveyed. The second summary bulletin presents national and regional estim ates, projected from individual metropolitan area data. The Poughkeepsie-Kingston-Newburgh survey was conducted by the Bureau's regional office in New York, N .Y ., under the general direction of Tony F erra ra, Acting A ssistant Regional Com m issioner for Operations. The survey could not have been accomplished with out the cooperation of the many firms whose wage and salary data provided the basis for the statistical information in this bulletin. The Bureau wishes to express sincere appreci ation for the cooperation received. Note: Current reports on occupational earnings and supplementary wage provisions in the Poughkeepsie-Kingston-Newburgh areas are also available for the laundry, moving and storage, and metalworking industries (June 197 5). Free copies of these are available from the Bureau's regional offices. (See back cover for addresses.)

In this area, data were obtained by personal visits of Bureau field economists to representative estab lishments within six broad industry divisions: Manufacturing; transpor tation, communication, and other public utilities; wholesale trade; retail trade; finance, insurance, and real estate; and services. Major industry groups excluded from these studies are government operations and the construction and extractive industries. Establishments having fewer than a prescribed number of workers are omitted because of insufficient employment in the occupations studied. Separate tabulations are provided for each of the broad industry divisions which meet publication criteria. A -series tables Tables A - l through A -6 provide estimates of straight-time hourly or weekly earnings for workers in occupations common to a variety of manufacturing and nonmanufacturing industries. Occupations were selected from the following categories: (a) Office clerical, (b) pro fessional and technical, (c) maintenance and powerplant, and (d) custodial and material movement. In the 31 largest survey areas, tables A -l a through A -6 a provide similar data for establishments employing 500 workers or more. Following the occupational wage tables is table A -7 which provides percent changes in average earnings of office clerical work ers, electronic data processing workers-, industrial nurses, skilled maintenance workers, and unskilled plant workers. This measure of wage trends eliminates changes in average earnings caused by employ ment shifts among establishments as well as turnover of establishments included in survey samples. Where possible, data are presented for all industries, manufacturing, and nonmanufacturing. Appendix A discusses this wage trend measure. B -se r ie s tables The B -series tables present information on minimum entrance salaries for office workers; late-sh ift pay provisions and practices for plant workers in manufacturing; and data separately for plant and office workers on scheduled weekly hours and days of first-sh ift workers; paid holidays; paid vacations; and health, insurance, and pension plans. Appendixes This bulletin has two appendixes. Appendix A describes the methods and concepts used in the area wage survey program. It provides information on the scope of the area survey and information on the area's industrial composition in manufacturing. It also provides information on labor-management agreement coverage. Appendix B provides job descriptions used by Bureau field economists to classify workers in occupations for which straight-tim e earnings information is presented.

Footnotes A ll of these standard footnotes may not apply to this bulletin. 1 Standard hours reflect the workweek for which employees receive their regular straight-tim e salaries (exclusive of pay for overtime at regular and/or premium rates), and the earnings correspond to these weekly hours. 2 The mean is computed for each job by totaling the earnings of all workers and dividing by the number of workers. The median designates position— half of the employees surveyed receive more and half receive less than the rate shown. The middle range is defined by two rates of pay; a fourth of the workers earn less than the lower of these rates and a fourth earn more than the higher rate. 3 Excludes premium pay for overtime and for work on weekends, holidays, and late shifts. 4 These salaries relate to formally established minimum starting (hiring) regular straight-tim e salaries that are paid for standard workweeks. 5 Excludes workers in subclerical jobs such as m essenger. 6 Data are presented for all standard workweeks combined, and for the m ost common standard workweeks reported. 7 Includes all plant workers in establishments currently operating late shifts, and establishments whose formal provisions cover late shifts, even though the establishments were not currently operating late shifts. 8 L ess than 0.05 percent. 9 L ess than 0.5 percent. 10 For purposes of this study, pay for a Sunday in December, negotiated in the automobile industry, is not treated as a paid holiday. 11 A ll combinations of full .and half days that add to the same amount are combined; for example, the proportion of workers receiving a total of 9 days includes those with 9 full days and no half days, 8 full days and 2 half days, 7 full days and 4 half days, and so on. Proportions then were cumulated. 12 A Christmas—New Year holiday period is an unbroken series of holidays which includes Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, New Y ear's Eve, and New Y e a r's Day. Such a holiday period is common in the automobile, aerospace, and farm implement industries. 13 "F lo atin g " holidays vary from year to year according to employer or employee choice. 14 Includes payments other than "length of t i m e ," such as percentage of annual earnings or flat-sum payments, converted to an equivalent time b a sis; for example, 2 percent of annual earnings was considered as 1 week's pay. Periods of service are chosen arbitrarily, and do not n ecessarily reflect individual provisions for progression; for example, changes in proportions at 10 years include changes between 5 and 10 years. Estim ates- are cumulative. Thus, the proportion eligible for at least 3 weeks' pay after 10 years includes those eligible for at least 3 weeks' pay after fewer years of service. 15 Estim ates listed after type of benefit are for all plans for which at least a part of the cost is borne by the employer. "Noncontributory plans" include only those financed entirely by the employer. Excluded are legally required plans, such as workmen's compensation, social security, and railroad retirement. 18 Unduplicated total of workers receiving sick leave or sickness and accident insurance shown separately below. Sick leave plans are lim ited to those which definitely establish at least the minimum number of days' pay that each employee can expect. Informal sick leave allowances determined on an individual basis are excluded.

An establishment was considered as having formal provisions if it (1 ) had operated late shifts during the 12 months before the survey, or (2) had provisions in written form to operate late shifts. 4 The temporary disability laws in California and Rhode Island do not require em ployer contributions. * An establishment is considered as having a formal plan if it established at least the minim um number of days sick leave available to each em ployee. Such a plan need not be written; but informal sick leave allowances, determined on an individual basis, are excluded.
