Introduction
O ccupational em p loym en t and earnin gs data a re shown for
fu ll-t im e w o r k e r s , i . e . , those h ired to w ork a regular w eek ly schedule
in the given occupational c la ssific a tio n .
E arn in gs data exclude p r e
m iu m pay for o v ertim e and for w ork on w eek en d s, h olid ay s, and late
sh ifts. Nonproduction bonuses are exclu ded, but c o s t -o f -liv in g a llo w
ances and incentive earnings are included. W h ere w eek ly hours are
rep o rte d , as fo r o ffice c le r ic a l occu p ation s, r e fe r e n c e is to the stand

o v ertim e at reg u lar a n d /o r p rem iu m r a te s ). A v era g e w eek ly earnings
for these occupations have been rounded to the n ea re st half dolla r.
T h is a re a is 1 of 86 in which the U .S. D epartm ent of L a b o r 's
B ureau of L abor S ta tistic s conducts su rvey s of occupational earnings
and rela te d b en efits on an areaw ide b a s is .
T h is b u lletin p r e se n ts current occupational em ploym en t and
earnin gs in fo rm a tio n obtained la rg e ly by m ail from the esta b lish m en ts
v is ite d by B ureau fie ld e c o n o m ists in the la st previous su rvey for
occupations rep o rted in that e a r lie r study. P e rso n al v is its w ere m ade
to nonrespondents and to th ose respondents reporting unusual changes
since the p rev iou s su rv ey .
In each a r e a , data are obtained fro m rep resen ta tiv e e sta b

portation , com m u n ica tio n , and other public u tilities; w h o lesale trade;
r e ta il tra d e; fin a n ce, in su ra n ce, and rea l esta te; and s e r v ic e s . M ajo r
in du stry groups excluded fr o m these studies are governm ent o p e r a
tions and the con stru ction and extractive in d u stries. E sta b lish m en ts
having few er than a p r e s c r ib e d number of w ork ers are om itted b ecau se
they tend to fu rn ish in su fficien t em ploym ent in the occupations studied
to w arran t in clu sion . Separate tabulations are provided for each of the

The a v era g e s p resen ted r e fle c t c o m p o site, areaw ide e s t i

In du stries and esta b lish m en ts differ in pay le v e l and job
staffing and, thus, contribute d ifferen tly to the e stim a te s for each job.
The pay rela tio n sh ip obtainable fro m the a v era g e s m ay fa il to reflec t
a cc u ra tely the wage spread or d ifferen tial m aintained among jobs in
individual e sta b lish m e n 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 e d to r e fle c t d iffe re n ce s in pay treatm en t of the sex es within
individual e sta b lish m e n ts. Other p o ssib le fa c to r s which m ay con trib
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 s s io n within esta b lish e d rate r a n g es, since only the actual rates
paid incum bents are co llec ted ; and d iffe re n ce s in sp e c ific duties p e r
fo r m e d , although the w o rk ers are c la s s ifie d app rop ria tely within the
sam e su rvey job d e scrip tio n . Job d escrip tion s u sed in c la ssify in g e m
p loy ees in these su rv ey s are u su ally m o re g en era lized than those used
in individual esta b lish m en ts and allow for m in or d iffe re n ce s among

T h ese su rv ey s are conducted on a sam ple b a sis becau se of
the u n n e c e s s a r y co st involved in surveying all e sta b lish m en ts.
To
obtain optim um a c c u r a c y at m inim um c o st, a greater proportion of
la rg e than of s m a ll e sta b lish m en ts is studied. In com bining the data,
h ow ev er, a ll e sta b lish m e n ts are given their appropriate w eight. E s
tim a te s b a se d on the e sta b lish m en ts studied are presen ted , th e r e fo r e ,
as relatin g to a ll esta b lish m e n ts in the industry grouping and a re a ,
excep t for those below the m in im u m size studied.
O ccupations
O ccupational em p loym en t e stim a te s re p re se n t the total in all
e sta b lish m en ts within the scope of the study and not the number a c
tually su rvey ed .
B eca u se of d iffe re n ce s in occupational structure
among e sta b lish m e n ts, the e stim a te s of occupational em ploym ent ob
tained fr o m the sam p le of esta b lish m en ts studied serv e only to indicate
the rela tiv e im portan ce of the jo b s studied. T h ese d iffe re n ce s in o ccu

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; (Z) p ro fessio n a l and tech n ical; (3) m a in
tenance and pow erplant; and (4) custodial and m aterial m ov em en t. O c
cupational c la s s ific a tio n is b ase d on a u n iform set of job descrip tion 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 liste d and d e
s c r ib e d in the appendix. The earnings data follow ing the job title s are
fo r all in d u stries com b in ed. Earn in gs data for some of the occupations
lis te d and d e s c r ib e d , or for som e industry division s within occu p ation s,
are not p rese n te d in the A - s e r i e s tables becau se either (1) e m p lo y
m ent in the occupation is too sm a ll to provide enough data to m e r it
p rese n ta tio n , or (Z) there is p o ssib ility of d isc lo su re of individual e s
tab lish m en t data.

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 em ployed under a variety o f payroll titles
and different work arrangements from establishment to establishment and from area to area.
This permits
the grouping o f occupational wage rates representing comparable job content.
Because of this emphasis on
interestablishment and interarea com parability o f 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 woricing supervisors;
apprentices; learners; beginners; trainees; and handicapped, part-tim e, temporary, and probationary workers.
