These areas are Akron, Ohio; Austin, T e x .; Binghamton, N .Y . —P a .; Birmingham, A la .; Fort Lauderdale—Hollywood and West Palm Beach—Boca Raton, F la.; Lexington—Fayette, K y .; Melbourne—Titusville—Cocoa, F la.; Norfolk—Virginia Beach-Portsmouth and Newport News—Hampton, Va. —N. C . ; Poughkeepsie-Kingston—Newburgh, N .Y .; Raleigh— Durham, N .C .; Stamford, Conn.; Syracuse, N .Y .; Utica—Rome, N .Y .; and Westchester County, N .Y . In addition, the Bureau conducts more limited area studies in approximately 70 areas at the request of the Employment Standards Administration of the U. S. Department o f Labor. 17 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. Wage trends for selected occupational groups The percent increases presented in table A -7 are based on changes in average hourly earnings for establishments reporting the trend jobs in both the current and previous year (matched establishments). The data are adjusted to remove the effects on average earnings of employment 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 enter at the bottom of the range, depressing the average without a change in wage rates.

Each occupation is assigned a weight based on its pro portionate employment in the occupational group in the base year. 2. These weights are used to compute group averages. Each, occupation's average (mean) earnings is multiplied by its weight. The products are totaled to obtain a group average. 3. 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 (men and women)— Continued Skilled maintenance (men and women): Industrial nurses (men and women!: 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.) Office clerical (men and women): Electronic data processing (men and women): 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. 1 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. 1 Personal visits were on a 2-year cy cle before July 1972. 18 Appendix table 1.

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. Estimates are not intended, however, for comparison with other em ployment indexes to m e a s u r e em pl oy me nt trends or levels since (1) planning of wage surveys requires establishment data compiled considerably in advance of the payroll period studied, and (2) small establishments are excluded f r o m the scope of the survey. 2 The 1967 edition of the Standard Industrial Classification Ma nu al w a s used in classifying establishments by industry division. 3 Includes all establishments with total employment at or above the m i n i m u m limitation. All outlets (within the area) of companies in industries such as trade, finance, auto repair service, and motion picture theaters are considered as 1 establishment. 4 Includes all workers in all establishments with total em pl oy me nt (within the area) at or above the m i n i m u m limitation. 5 Abbreviated to "public utilities" in the A-series tables. Taxic&bs and services incidental to water transportation are excluded. 6 This division is represented in estimates for "all industries" and "nonmanufacturing" in the A-series tables. Separate presentation of data is not m a d e for one or m o r e of the following reasons: (1) Em p l o y m e n t is too small to provide enough data to merit separate study, (2) the sample wa s not designed initially to permit separate presentation, (3) response w a s 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 m e m b e r s h i p organizations (excluding religious and charitable organizations); and engineering and architectural services. 19 Appendix B.
