In this a r e a , data w ere obtained by p e r s o n a l v is i t s o f Bureau field ec o n om is ts to r e p r e sentative es t a b l is h m e n t s within six broad industry d iv isio n s: M a n u factu ring; tra n spo rtation , com m u n icatio n , and other public utilities; w h o le s a le trade ; r e t a i l tra de; finance, insura nce, and r e a l estate ; and serv ices. M a jo r industry groups excluded fr o m these studies are govern m en t o peration s and the construction and extractiv e industries. E s t a b li s h m e n t s having few er than a p r e s c r ib e d number of w o r k e r s are o m itte d , b ec au s e they tend to furnish insufficient e m p lo y m en t in the occupations studied to w a r ra n t inclusion. Separate tabulations are provided for each of the broad industry divisions which m e e t pub lication c r i t e r i a . bonuses and incentive earnings a re included. W h ere weekly hours are repo rted, as for office c l e r i c a l occupations, r ef e r e n c e is to the stand ard workw eek (rounded to the n e a r e s t half hour) for which em ployee s r ec eiv e their regular s t r a i g h t -t i m e s a la r i e s (exclusiv e of pay for o ver tim e at reg ular a n d / o r p r e m iu m r a t e s ) .

Industries and es ta blis h m en ts differ in pay level and job staffing and, thus, contribute diffe rently to the es t im a t e s for each job. The pay r ela tionship obtainable fr o m the a v e r a g e s m ay fail to r efle ct a cc u r ately the wage spread or diffe ren tial maintained among jobs in individual e s t a b lis h m e n t s . S i m i la r l y , diffe re n ce s in average pay le vels for m en and w o m e n in any of the s elected occupations should not be a s s u m e d to r e f l e c t diffe re n ce s in pay treatm ent of the sexes within individual e s t a b lis h m e n t s . Other po ssible fa c to rs which may contribute to d iffe re n ce s in pay for m e n and w o m en include: D i f f e r ences in p r o g r e s s i o n within establis h ed rate r a n g e s , since only the actual rates paid incumbents a re colle cted ; and diffe re n ce s in specific duties p e r f o r m e d , although the w o r k e r s are approp ria te ly c la ssified within the s a m e su r vey job d escription .

To obtain optim um a c c u r a c y at m in im u m c o s t , a greater proportion of la rg e than of s m a l l e s t a b lis h m e n t s is studied. In combining the data, h o w e v e r , a l l e s t a b lis h m e n t s a r e given their appropriate weight.

Earnings data for s o m e of the occupations lis ted and d e s c r i b e d , or for some industry divisions within o c c u p a t io n s , a r e not prese n te d in the A - s e r i e s ta b le s , because either (1) e m p lo y m e n t in the occupation is too s m a ll to provide enough data to m e r i t p r e s e n ta tio n , or (2) there is p ossibility of d i s c lo s u r e of individual e s t a b l is h m e n t data.

Subtracting 100 f r o m the index yie ld s the percenta ge change in w a g es f r o m the b ase period to the date of the index. The pe rc e n ta ge s of change or i n c r e a s e relate to wage changes between the indicated da tes.

Indexes of earnings referred to in this standard text are published for most areas but not in San Diego because the area was not surveyed in the base year o f the index series. O ffic e c leric a l (m en and w om en): Each of the selec ted ke y occupations within an occupational group was a ssig n ed a weight b a s e d on its proportionate em p lo y m en t in the occupational group. T h e s e constant weights re fle c t b a s e y ear em plo ym ents w h e re ve r p o s s i b l e . Th e a v e r a g e (mean) earnings fo r each occupation were m ultiplied by the occupation weight, and the products for all occupations in the group w e r e total ed . The a g g re g a te s for 2 consecutive y ears were r ela te d by dividing the a gg re ga te for the la te r year by the aggregate for the e a r l i e r y e a r . The resultant re la tiv e , le ss 100 percent, shows the p e rc e n ta ge change. The index is the product of multiplying the b a s e y e a r r ela tiv e (100) by the rela tiv e for the next succeeding year and continuing to m u lt ip ly (compound) each y e a r ' s relativ e by the prev iou s y e a r ' s index.

Appendix A. Change in Occupational Description: Secretary Since the Bureau*s last survey, the occupational description for secretary was revised in order to obtain salary information for more specific categories. zation and the scope of the supervisor's position are considered in dis tinguishing these levels. Data published under the composite title of secretary are not comparable to data previously published. The revised descriptions for secretary (classes A, B, C, D) classify these workers according to levels of responsibility. The size of the organi The revised occupational descriptions are included in appendix B. 21 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-time, 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 o f this role, does not in all cases identify such positions.
