Area W a g e Survey
T h e San A ntonio, T ex., M etropolitan Area
Introduction
O ccupational em ploym en t and earnings data are shown for
fu ll-tim e w o r k e r s , i .e ., those hired to w ork a regular w eekly schedule
in the given occupational c la ssific a tio n .
Earnings data exclude p r e ­
m iu m pay for o vertim e and for work on w eek en ds, h olid ay s, and late
sh ifts. N onproduction bonuses are excluded, but c o s t -o f-liv in g a llow ­
ances and incentive earnings are included. W here w eek ly hours are
rep o rted , as for office c le r ic a l occupations, referen c e is to the stand­
ard workw eek (rounded to the n ea re st half hour) for which em ployees
rec eiv e their regular stra ig h t-tim e s a la r ie s (exclu siv e of pay for
overtim e at regu lar a n d /o r prem iu m r a te s ). A v erag e w eekly earnings
for these occupations have been rounded to the n ea re st half dollar.

This area is 1 of 86 in which the U .S. D epartm ent of L a b o r 's
B ureau of Labor S ta tistic s conducts su rveys of occupational earnings
and rela ted ben efits on an areaw ide b a s is .
This b u lletin p re se n ts current occupational em ploym ent and
earnings inform ation obtained la rg e ly by m ail fro m the esta blish m en ts
v isite d by B ureau fie ld eco n o m ists in the la st previous su rvey for
occupations reported in that e a r lie r study. P e rso n al v isits w ere made
to nonrespondents and to those respondents reporting unusual changes
since the p rev iou s s u rv ey .
In each a r e a , data are obtained fro m represen tative e sta b ­
lish m e n ts within six b road in du stry d iv isio n s: Manufacturing; tra n s­
portation , com m u n ication , and other public u tilities; w h o lesale trade;
r eta il tra d e; fin an ce, in su ra n ce, and real estate; and s e r v ic e s . M ajor
industry groups excluded fr o m these studies are governm ent o p era ­
tions and the con stru ction and extractive in du stries. E stab lish m en ts
having few er than a p r e s c r ib e d number of w orkers are om itted because
they tend to fu rn ish in su fficien t em ploym ent in the occupations studied
to w a rra n t in clu sion . Separate tabulations are provided for each of the
broad industry d iv isio n s which m eet publication c r ite r ia .

The a vera ge s presen ted r e fle c t com p osite, areaw ide e s t i­
m a te s.
Industries and esta blish m en ts differ in pay le v e l and job
staffing and, thus, contribute d ifferen tly to the estim a tes for each job .
The pay relation sh ip obtainable fro m the avera ges m ay fa il to reflect
a ccu rately the wage spread or d ifferen tial m aintained among jobs in
individual e sta b lish m en ts. S im ila r ly , d iffe re n ce s in average pay le v e ls
fo r m en and w om en in any of the selec ted occupations should not be
a ssu m ed to r e fle c t d ifferen ces in pay treatm en t of the sex es within
individual esta b lish m e n ts. Other p o ssib le fa cto rs which m ay contrib­
ute to d iffe re n ce s in pay for m en and w om en include: D iffe re n c es in
p r o g r e ssio n within esta blish ed rate ran g es, since only the actual rates
paid incum bents are collected ; and d iffe re n ce s in sp e cific duties p e r ­
fo r m e d , although the w o rk ers are c la s s ifie d approp riately within the
sam e su rvey job d escrip tion . Job d escription s used in cla ssify in g e m ­
ploy ees in these su rvey s are u su ally m ore g en eralized than those used
in individual esta b lish m en ts and allow for m inor d iffe re n ce s among
esta b lish m en ts in the sp e cific duties p e rfo rm ed .

T h ese su rvey s are conducted on a sam ple b asis becau se of
the u n n e c e ssa ry cost involved in surveying a ll esta b lish m en ts.
To
obtain optim um a cc u r a c y at m in im u m co st, a greater proportion of
la rg e than of sm a ll esta b lish m en ts is studied. In combining the data,
h ow ever, all esta b lish m en ts are given their appropriate weight. E s ­
tim a tes b a se d on the esta b lish m en ts studied are presen ted, th e r e fo r e ,
as relating to all e sta b lish m en ts in the industry grouping and a re a ,
except for those below the m in im u m size studied.

O ccupational em ploym ent estim a te s rep rese n t the total in all
esta b lish m en ts within the scope of the study and not the number a c ­
tually su rveyed .
B ecau se of d iffe re n ce s in occupational structure
among esta b lish m e n ts, the e stim a tes of occupational em ploym ent ob­
tained fro m the sam ple of esta blish m en ts studied serv e only to indicate
the rela tiv e im portance of the job s studied. T h ese d iffe re n ce s in occu ­
pational stru ctu re do not affect m a te r ia lly the a ccu racy of the ea rn ­
ings data.

O ccupations and E arn in gs
The occupations se le c te d for study are com m on to a v a riety of
m anufacturing and nonm anufacturing in d u stries, and are of the fo llo w ­
ing typ es: (l) O ffice c le r ic a l; (2) p ro fessio n al and technical; (3) m ain ­
tenance and pow erplant; and (4) custodial and m aterial m ovem en t. O c ­
cupational c la s s ific a tio n is b ased on a uniform set of job d escription s
design ed to take account of in teresta b lish m en t variation in duties within
the sam e jo b . The occupations selected for study are listed and d e­
sc rib ed in the appendix. The earnings data follow ing the job titles are
for all in d u stries com bined. Earn in gs data for som e of the occupations
listed and d e sc rib e d , or for som e industry divisions within occupations,
are not presen ted in the A - s e r i e s tables because either (1) em p lo y ­
m ent in the occupation is too sm a ll to provide enough data to m erit
p resen ta tio n , or (2) th ere is p o ssib ility of d isc lo su re of individual e s ­
tab lish m en t data.




E stab lish m en t P r a c tic e s and Supplem entary Wage P ro v isio n s
Tabulations on selec ted establish m en t p ra ctic es and supple­
m en tary wage pro vision s ( B -s e r i e s tables) are not p resen ted in this
bulletin.
Inform ation for these tabulations is c ollected biennially.
T h ese tabulations on m in im u m entrance s a la r ie s for inexperienced
w om en office w o r k e r s; shift d iffe re n tia ls; scheduled w eekly h ou rs; paid
h olid ay s; paid v acation s; and health, in su ran ce, and pension plans are
p resen ted (in the B - s e r i e s tables) in previou s bulletins for this area.

1 The San Antonio Standard Metropolitan Statistical Area, as defined by the Bureau of the Budget through April 1967, consists of Bexar and
Guadalupe Counties.
The "workers 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. The estimates are not intended, however, to serve as a basis of comparison with other em ­
ployment indexes for the area to measure employment trends or levels since (l) planning of wage surveys requires the use of establishment data
compiled considerably in advance of the payroll period studied, and (2) small establishments are excluded from the scope of the survey.
2 The 1967 edition of the Standard Industrial Classification Manual was used in classifying establishments by industry division.
3 Includes all establishments with total employment at or above the minimum limitation. All outlets (within the area) of companies in such indus­
tries as trade, finance, auto repair service, and motion picture theaters are considered as 1 establishment.
4 Includes all workers in all establishments with total employment (within the area) at or above the minimum limitation.
5 Taxicabs and services incidental to water transportation were excluded.
San Antonio's electric, gas, and transit systems are municipally
operated and are excluded by definition from the scope of the study.
* This industry division is represented in estimates for "all industries" and "nonmanufacturing" in the Series A tables. Separate presentation of
data for this division is not made for one or more of the following reasons: (1) Employment in the division is too small to provide enough data to
merit separate study, (2) the sample was not designed initially to permit 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 motels; laundries and other personal services; business services; automobile repair, rental, and parking; motion pictures; nonprofit
membership organizations (excluding religious and charitable organizations); and engineering and architectural services.

About three-tenths of the workers within scope of the survey in the San Antonio
area were employed in manufacturing firm s.
The following table presents the major in­
dustry groups and specific industries as a percent of all manufacturing:

Wage Trends for Selected Occupational Groups
Presented in table 2 are indexes and percentages of change
in average salaries of office clerical workers and industrial nurses,
and in average earnings of selected plant worker groups. The indexes
are a measure of wages at a given time, expressed as a percent of
wages during the base period (date of the area survey conducted
between July I960 and June 1961). 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. These estimates are
measures of change in averages for the area; they are not intended
to measure average pay changes in the establishments in the area.

in the occupational group. These constant weights reflect base year
employments wherever possible.
The average (mean) earnings for
each occupation were multiplied by the occupational weight, 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 aggregate for the earlier year. The resultant
relative, less 100 percent, 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 year's relative by the previous year's index. Average earnings
for the following occupations were used in computing the wage trends:

Appendix. 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; and handicapped, part-time, temporary, and probationary workers.
