Scope and Method of Survey In each o f the 7 5 1 areas cu rren tly surveyed, the Bureau obtains w ages and related b en efits data from represen tative establish m en ts within six broad industry d iv isio n s: M anufacturing; transportation, com m unication, and other public u tilitie s ; w h o lesale trade; retail trade; finance, insurance, and r e a l esta te; and s e r v ic e s . G overnm ent operations and the construction and ex tra ctiv e in d u stries are excluded. Establishm ents having few er than a p r e s c r ib e d num ber of w o rk ers are also excluded becau se of insufficient em p loym en t in the occupations studied. Appendix table 1 shows the number of e sta b lish m en ts and w o rk ers estim ated to be within the scope of this su rvey, as w e ll as the num ber actually studied. B u reau fie ld rep rese n ta tiv es obtain data by person al visits at 3 - year in te rv a ls . In each o f the two intervening y e a r s, inform ation on em ploym ent and occupational earnings only is collected by a combination of person al v isit, m a il q u estio n n aire, and telephone interview from establishm ents participating in the previou s su rv ey . A sa m p le o f the establish m en ts in the scope of the su rvey is selected fo r study p r io r to each p e rso n a l v isit su rvey. This sa m p le, le s s estab lish m en ts which go out of b u sin e ss or are no longer within the industrial scope of the su rv e y , is retained fo r the follow ing two annual su r v e y s. In m o s t c a s e s , esta b lish m en ts new to the a rea are not con sidered in the scope o f the su rvey until the se le c tio n of a sam ple for a p e rso n al v isit su rvey . The sam p lin g p ro ce d u res involve detailed stratification of all estab lish m en ts within the scop e of an individual area survey by industry and num ber o f e m p lo y e e s . F r o m this stratified universe a probability sam ple is se le c te d , with each esta blish m en t having a predeterm ined chance of se le c tio n . T o obtain optim um a ccu racy at m inim um cost, a g re ater proportion o f la rg e than s m a ll esta b lish m en ts is selected . When data are com bined, each esta b lish m en t is w eighted according to its probability of selectio n so that unbiased e s tim a te s are generated. F o r exam ple, if one out of four esta b lish m en ts is se le c te d , it is given a weight of 4 to rep rese n t itse lf plus th ree o th e r s . An alternate o f the sam e original probability is chosen in the sam e in d u s tr y -s iz e c la s s ific a tio n if data are not available fro m the origin al sa m p le m e m b e r . If no suitable substitute is available, additional weight is assign ed to a sa m p le m e m b e r that is sim ila r to the m issin g unit. O ccupations and earnings O ccupations se le c te d fo r study are com m on to a v ariety of m an u fac turing and nonm anufacturing in d u stries, and are of the follow ing typ es; (1) O ffic e c le r ic a l; (2) p ro fe ssio n a l and technical; (3) m aintenance, to o lroo m , 1 Included in the 75 areas are 5 studies conducted by the Bureau under contract. These areas are Akron, Ohio; Birmingham, A la.; Norfolk—Virginia Beach-Portsmouth and Newport News—Hampton, V a.—N .C .; Poughkeepsie-‘-Kingston—Newburgh, N .Y .; and Utica—Rome, N .Y . In addition, the Bureau conducts more lim ited area studies in approximately 100 areas at the request o f the Employment Standards Administration of the U. S. Department of Labor. and powerplant; and (4) m a te r ia l m ovem en t and custodial. Occupational cla ssific a tio n is based on a uniform set of job description s designed to take account of in terestab lish m en t variation in duties within the sam e job. Occupations selected fo r study are listed and describ ed in appendix B. U n less oth erw ise indicated, the earnings data following the job titles are for all industries com bined. Earnings data for som e of the occupations liste d and d e sc rib ed , or for som e industry divisions within the scope of the su rvey, are not presented in the A - s e r i e s tables because either (1) em ploym ent in the occupation is too sm a ll to provide enough data to m e r it presentation, or (2) th ere is p o ssib ility of d isc lo su re of individual establish m en t data. Separate m e n 's and w o m en 's earnings data are not presented when the number of w o rk ers not identified by sex is 20 percent or m o r e of the m en or w om en identified in an occupation. Earnings data not shown sep arately fo r industry division s are included in data for all industries com bined. L ik e w ise, for occupations with m o r e than one level, data are included in the o v era ll c la ssific a tio n when a su b classification is not shown or inform ation to su b cla ssify is not available. Occupational em ploym ent 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. Earnings data exclude p rem iu m pay fo r o vertim e and for work on weekends, holidays, and late sh ifts. Nonproduction bonuses are excluded, but c o s t-o f-liv in g allow ances and incentive bonuses are included. W eekly hours for office c le r ic a l and p ro fessio n a l and technical occupations refer to the standard workweek (rounded to the n ea re st half hour) for which em ployees receive regu lar stra ig h t-tim e sa la r ie s (exclu siv e of pay for overtim e at regular a n d /o r prem iu m r a te s). A v erag e w eekly earnings for these occupations are rounded to the n e a re st half d o lla r . V e rtic a l lin es within the distribution of w orkers on som e A -ta b le s indicate a change in the size of the c la ss in tervals. T h ese su rvey s m e a su re the level, of occupational earnings in an area at a particu lar tim e . C om p arison s of individual occupational averages over tim e m ay not r e fle c t expected wage changes. The averages for individual jobs are affected by changes in w ages and em ploym ent patterns. F or exam ple, proportions of w o rk ers em ployed by high- or lo w -w a ge fir m s m ay change, or high -w age w o rk ers m a y advance to better jobs and be replaced by new w o rk ers at low er r a te s . Such shifts in em ploym ent could d ecrease an occu pational average even though m o s t establish m en ts in an a rea increase wages during the y e a r . Changes in earnings of occupational groups, shown in table A - 7, are better indicators of wage trends than are earnings changes for individual jobs within the grou ps. A v erag e earnings r e fle c t com p osite, areawide estim a te s. Industries and establish m en ts d iffer in pay le v e l and job staffing, and thus contribute d ifferen tly to the estim a tes fo r each jo b . P ay averages m ay fail to reflect accu rately the wage differen tial among job s in individual establish m en ts. A v era g e pay le v e ls fo r m en and women in selected occupations should not be a ssu m ed to reflec t d ifferen ces in pay o f the sex es within individual esta b lish m en ts. F a cto rs which m ay contribute to d ifferen ces include p r o g re ssio n within establish ed rate ranges (only the rates paid incum bents are collected ) and p erform an ce of sp e cific duties within the gen eral survey job d e sc rip tio n s. Job d escrip tion s used to c la s s ify em p loyees in these surveys u su ally are m ore gen eralized than those used in individual establish m en ts and allow fo r m in or d ifferen ces among establish m en ts in sp e cific duties pe rfo rm ed .

The data are adjusted to rem ove the effe cts on average earnings of em p loy m ent shifts among establish m en ts and turnover of establish m en ts included in su rvey s a m p le s. The percent in c r e a s e s , h ow ever, are still affected by fa cto rs other than wage in c r e a s e s . H irin g s, la y o ffs, and turnover m ay affect an establish m en t average for an occupation when w orkers are paid under plans providing a range of wage rates fo r individual jo b s. In periods o f in creased hirin g, for exam ple, new em p loyees m a y enter at the bottom of the range, depressin g the average without a change in wage ra tes. The percen t changes relate to wage changes between the indicated dates. When the tim e span between su rveys is other than 12 m onths, annual rates are shown, (it is assu m ed that wages in cre a se at a constant rate between su rv ey s.)
