Statistics on straight-time wages for tirrte worked no longer sufficiently approximate the level of em ployer payments for hired labor. Therefore, it is impor tant now to take account of such outlays as vacation and holiday pay, daily or weekly overtime and shift differen tials, terminal (severance) pay, contributions to private pension and health and welfare funds, and payments under legally required insurance programs. This bulletin analyzes the level and structure of employer outlays for the compensation of employees, con sidering the expenditures for each component as a percent of total compensation outlays and in cents-per-hour terms. Furthermore, the relative importance of working and leave hours as percents of total hours paid for is discussed. This study of the pipeline industry is part of the Bureau’s program of studies of employer expenditures for supplementary compensation practices. A list of previ ously issued reports is found at the end of this bulletin. The study was conducted by the Bureau’s Division of National Wage and Salary Income, Norman J. Samuels, Chief, in the Office of Wages and Industrial Relations, L». R. Linsenmayer, Assistant Commissioner. The sta tistical techniques were developed by Samuel E. Cohen and Theodore J. Golonka. The analysis was prepared by Robert E. Pope, under the immediate supervision of Victor J. Sheifer and the general direction of Arnold Strasser. m Contents Page Sum m ary_____________________________________________________________________________ Compensation le v e ls _________________________________________________________________ Prevalence of supplements__________________________________________________________ Paid leave____________________________________________________________________________ Paid vacations and holidays_____________________________________________________ Sick leave and other paid le a v e _________________________________________________ Premium payments__________________________________________________________________ Nonproduction bonuses and terminal payments___________________________________ Legally required insurance p ro g ra m s_____________________________________________ Private welfare plans________________________________________________________________ Life, accident, and health insurance___________________________________________ Pension and retirement p lan s___________________________________________________ Savings and thrift plans__________________________________________________________ Composition of payroll hours_______________________________________________________ 1 2 2 4 4 4 5 5 5 6 6 6 7 7 Chart: 3 The structure of compensation, pipelines, 1964________________________ Tables: 1.

In addition to these direct payments, pipeline employers had expenditures of 67 cents— 15 percent of all compensation expenditures— for legally required insurance programs and private welfare plans. Aggregate expenditures for supplements to straight-time pay for working time amounted to $1.17 per hour— almost half (56 cents) of which consisted of expenditures for private welfare plans; slightly more than four-tenths was for direct payroll supplements. Expenditures for legally required insurance pro grams amounted to 11 cents per hour— less than 10 percent of all supplementary expenditures. The pipeline industry has one of the highest compensation levels in the country. Expenditures in this industry are of such magnitude that the supplemen tary compensation payments, which accounted for just over one-fourth of total compensation expenditures, were only 8 cents per hour less than the legal m ini mum wage established under the Fair Labor Standards Act, as amended in 1964. Companies within the industry vary widely in size. Some have fewer than 25 employees and others more than 1, 500 employees. About 60 percent of the industry's nonsupervisory workers were in companies with collectively b a r gained agreements covering a majority of their nonsupervisory em ployees.4 In general, however, a sim ilar level of expenditures for supplements was reported by both unionized and nonunionized companies and by companies of different em ployment size. Nevertheless, the highest level of expenditures for paid leave— both as a proportion of total compensation outlays and in cents per paid hour---- 1 Compensation, for purposes of this study, is defined as the sum of the payments, subject to Federal withholding taxes, that were made by employers directly to their em ployees, before deductions of any type, and the expenditures m ade by employers for le g a lly required insurance programs and private welfare plans to provide the worker with full— or partial— econom ic security against a future contingency (e . g. , unem ploym ent, retirement, m edical expenses, e t c .) . 2 The pipeline transportation industry includes companies classified, in accordance with the 1957 edition of the Standard Industrial Classification Manual and 1963 Supplem ent, in SIC 4612— crude petroleum pipelines— and SIC 4613— refined petroleum pipelines. ^ Paid hours consist of aggregate hours, including paid leave hours, rest periods, coffee breaks, machine d ow n -tim e, and other nonleave hours paid for but not worked, for which employers made direct payments to workers during the year. Working tim e excludes paid leave, hours. As leave hours increase proportionate to total hours, expenditures per hour o f working tim e differ increasingly from expenditures per paid hour. In this industry, leave hours accounted for about 11 percent of all 1964 paid hours occasioning a difference of about 12 percent between the two cents per hour measures. Unless otherwise noted, all cents-per-hour discussions in the text are based on aggregate paid hours. The terms workers and em ployees, which are used synonymously in this report, are defined to include all e m ployees of pipeline com panies. 4 More than 8 out of every 10 pipeline workers were em ployed in nonsupervisory capacities during 1964. ploym ent and Earnings Statistics for the United States, 1 9 0 9 -6 5 (BLS Bulletin 1 3 1 2 -3 , 1965). Em - 2 were made by the largest size companies and by companies in which the majority of nonsupervisory workers were covered by bargained agreements. It should be noted that many pipeline companies are affiliated with petroleum refineries, and to a certain extent, both industries have sim ilar supplemental compensation plans. Compensation Levels Expenditures in the pipeline industry for the compensation of employees amounted to $4.46 for each paid hour during 1964. Alm ost six-tenths of the industry’ s employees worked for companies whose expenditures ranged between $3.80 and $4.80 per hour. 5 About two-thirds of the remaining employees worked for firm s with expenditures of over $4.80 per hour and one-third were employed by pipeline companies with compensation expenditures of less than $3.80 per hour.

Prevalence of Supplements A ll companies had expenditures during 1964 for vacations; holidays; sick leave; premium pay; life, accident, and health insurance; and pension and retire ment plans. In addition, all companies in the industry had expenditures for legally mandated programs such as social security and unemployment insurance, and almost all had expenditures for workmen’ s compensation program s. 6 Savings and thrift plans were also very prevalent in this industry. Com panies employing nine-tenths of all workers had expenditures for such plans. This is an unusually high incidence for savings and thrift plans and contrasts sharply with the pattern found in m o st industries.7 The prevalence of other supplements 5 For ease o f reading in this and subsequent discussions o f tabulations, the lim its o f the class intervals are des ignated as 2 to 5 percent, 1 to 6 cents, e tc . , instead of using the more precise term inology, 2 and under 5 percent, 1 and under 6 cents, etc. 6 Companies can self-insure under the workmen's com pensation laws in several States and in a given year m ay have no expenditures occasioned by occupational illness or injury. A n estim ated 2 percent of the woikers in the pipeline industry were em ployed by firms that did not have any expenditures for workmen's compensation programs during 1964. For exa m p le, in 1962, only 4 percent of the production and related woikers in the manufacturing industries were em ployed by establishments with expenditures for savings and thrift plans. See Employer Expenditures for S elected Supplementary Compensation Practices for Production and R elated Workers: Com position of Payroll Horns: Manufacturing Industries, 1962 (BLS Bulletin 1428, 1965). The Structure of Compensation, Pipelines, 1964 (Cents per paid hour) Legally required insurance programs 4 varied: Four-fifths of all employees worked for companies that had shift differ ential expenditures; almost three-fourths were in companies having terminal payments; and slightly over one-half were employed by companies that had ex penditures for nonproduction bonuses. 8 Paid Leave Leave payments accounted for over 80 percent of all expenditures for direct payroll supplements, and were second in importance (among the various supplements to straight-time pay for working time) only to expenditures for p ri vate welfare plans. Leave expenditures constituted 9.2 percent of total compensation with vacations and holidays accounting for over 80 percent of these payments. Sick leave and civic and personal leave accounted for the remainder of the leave pay ments. Generally, expenditures for leave time were at sim ilar levels throughout the industry with almost two-thirds of the workers being employed by companies in which these payments ranged between 8 and 10 percent of total compensation, and almost seven-eights of the employees worked for companies whose leave payments amounted to 30 cents or more per 1964 paid hour. However, the highest levels of leave payments were found in the largest companies. This was not necessarily because of more liberal practices, although most of the firm s with the highest expenditure levels granted 5 weeks or more of paid vacation to some of their employees, but possibly because these companies had more long service employ ees who were eligible for more extensive vacation periods. Paid Vacations and Holidays. Vacation payments comprised 5. 2 percent of total compensation, and amounted to 23 cents per 1964 paid hour. Most workers (71 percent) were employed by companies whose vacation expenditures constituted 4 to 6 percent of total compensation with the larger companies generally having higher vacation expenditures as a proportion of total compensation than the sm all. Holiday expenditures were generally uniform throughout the industry re gardless of company size, location, or union status; 88 percent of all employees were in companies whose expenditures were 2 to 3 percent of total compensation; the overall average being 2. 4 percent. These expenditures amounted to almost 11 cents for each paid hour during 1964. Sick Leave and Other Paid Leave. Payments to workers for sick leave were made by all pipeline firm s. These expenditures, which accounted for 15 per cent of all leave payments, amounted to 1 .4 percent of compensation outlays and averaged almost 6 .5 cents for each paid hour. Expenditures of the different firm s ranged from under 1 percent of all compensation outlays and less than 2 cents per paid hour to 2 percent and 12 cents. However, during 1964, two-thirds of the workers were employed by firm s in which sick leave payments comprised 1 to 3 percent of compensation, and more than one-third worked for pipeline firm s in which these payments amounted to 6 cents or more per paid hour. Ninety percent of the industry1s employees worked for companies that had expenditures for civic and personal leave 9 during 1964. However, these expendi tures amounted to less than one-half of 1 percent of all compensation outlays. 10 8 None of the companies in the sample reported having expenditures for vacation and holiday funds or for sever ance an d/or SUB funds. Most com panies, however, provided sim ilar benefits through direct payroll expenditures. ^ Includes m ilitary, jury, witness (excluding pay for serving as a witness for the em ployer), voting, and per sonal leave. The low le v e l of expenditures is due more to the infrequent occurrence o f this type o f paid le a v e , than a lack of liberality in benefits. and jury leave are prevalent in the industry. rather The six pipeline contracts on file with the Bureau indicate that funeral leave 5 Premium Payments Premium payments, 11 although reported by all companies, constituted only 1.6 percent of total compensation and amounted to 7.1 cents per paid hour during 1964. Premiums for overtime, weekend, and holiday work comprised 80 percent of these payments and shift differentials accounted for the rest. Although some workers were employed by companies in which these ex penditures amounted to 5 percent of total compensation, all but 16 percent of the employees worked for companies with premium payments of less than 2 percent of total compensation. Shift differential expenditures were uniformly low, amounting to less than 1 percent of all compensation payments. Nonproduction Bonuses and Terminal Payments Both nonproduction bonuses and terminal pay, comprised only minute portions of the industry's total outlay for the compensation of employees. While a majority of the employees worked for companies with expenditures for these items (55 percent for those with bonuses and 81 percent for those with terminal pay), outlays were generally low. Even among companies with expenditures for these benefits, bonuses averaged only 0.2 cents and terminal pay 2.8 cents per paid hour. Legally Required Insurance Programs Company expenditures for legally required insurance programs consti tuted only 2.5 percent of total compensation outlays during 1964. 12 Payments for social security comprised 72 percent of the total; unemployment compensation 20 percent; and workmen’ s compensation 8 percent. 13 Expenditures for social security (old-age, disability, and survivors in surance) accounted for 1.8 percent of total compensation, or slightly over 8 cents per paid hour. Nearly all employees were in companies whose costs were b e tween 1 and 3 percent of total compensation, or between 6 and 10 cents per paid hour. Payments made for State and F ed e ra l14 unemployment insurance con stituted only 0.5 percent of compensation and amounted to 2 cents per paid hour. Over 90 percent of all employees worked for companies whose expenditures for unemployment insurance constituted less than 1 percent of total compensation payments, and 95 percent worked for companies with payments of less than 4 cents per hour. Workmen’ s compensation expenditures of slightly over 1 cent per paid hour accounted for only 0.2 percent of compensation. Expenditures in all com panies were less than 4 cents per hour and almost all workers (96 percent) were in companies in which these expenditures accounted for less than 1 percent of total compensation. 11 These include prem ium pay for overtim e, w eekend, 12 The expenditures for le g a lly required insurance programs were only a sm all proportion of total compensation and holiday work, and shift differentials. expenditures because of the generally high le v e l of gross m oney wages in the industry. In general, the le g a lly re quired programs are funded on the basis of a rate applied against a specified m axim um of each e m p loyee’ s, earnings. For exam ple: In 1964, the em ployer’ s rate of contribution for social security was 3 5/g percent of the first $ 4 ,8 0 0 of each em ployee's annual earnings. and hence, Em ployee earnings in the industry averaged considerably higher than these m axim um s, the payments are only a sm all proportion of total compensation expenditures. Employers in a few States are subject to temporary disability insurance laws. None o f the pipeline companies in the sample reported expenditures under these laws. 14 For 1964, employers in all but 9 States were taxed at a rate of 0 . 4 percent of payroll. A rate of 0 . 7 per cent was paid in California, Delaw are, Indiana, Massachusetts, M ichigan, M innesota, New Jersey, and W est Virginia. Alaska had a rate of 0 .8 5 percent. In all States, the tax applied only to the first $ 3 ,0 0 0 paid to an em p loyee. 6 Private Welfare Plans In 1964, $1 of every $8 of compensation provided pipeline workers with deferred compensation, in the form of private welfare plans, which provided the workers with protection against various contingencies and/or eventualities. These expenditures were not only greater in the pipeline industry, during 1964 than those for any other group of pay supplements, but were considerably higher than those made in 1962 by manufacturing employers for production and related workers or those made in 1963 for nonproduction workers in the private sector of the economy. 15 Outlays for all private welfare plans constituted 12.6 percent of the pipe line industry's total compensation expenditures; outlays for pension and retirement plans accounted for one-half of these payments; savings and thrift plans amounted to 3.6 percent, and life, accident, and health insurance to 2.7 percent. Expendi tures for private welfare plans amounted to 56 cents per paid hour, or 63 cents per 1964 working hour. Half of the industry's employees worked for companies in which these expenditures amounted to 45 cents per hour or more. L ife, Accident, and Health Insurance. A ll companies had expenditures for some type of life, accident, and health insurance. However, there was a wide range in the level of expenditures among the various companies. Measured as a percent of total compensation, the range was from under 1 to 6 percent; in cents per hour, it was from under 2 cents to as high as 30 cents per hour. Overall expenditures for these plans were 2. 7 percent of total compensation and represented payments of 12 cents per paid hour. A majority (55 percent) of all employees were in companies with expenditures of between 1 and 3 percent of total compensation. Generally, the highest expenditures were made by the largest companies and the lowest expenditures by the sm allest companies. However, some large and some small companies had expenditures which fell in or around the center of the distribution. About 95 percent of the pipeline employees worked for companies in which life, accident, and health insurance plans were partly paid for by em ployee contributions. However, employer expenditures for these contributory plans----2. 7 percent of total compensation outlays— were only slightly lower than the expenditures ( 3. 0 percent) reported by the few companies having noncontrib utory plans. Pension and Retirement P lans. Expenditures for private pension and retirement plans were higher than for any other supplement to straight-time pay for working tim e, and were 31/ 2 tim es greater than expenditures for legally re quired social security. They comprised 6. 3 percent of total expenditures for compensation and amounted to 28 cents per paid hour. In general, the level of pension expenditures did not appear to be measureably affected by unionization or by the size of the company1s employment. Over 80 percent of all employees worked for companies in which pension expenditures were 3 percent or more of total compensation, and over one-fourth were in companies with expenditures of 10 percent or m ore. Over one-third of all employees worked for companies whose pension expenditures were 30 cents or more for each hour paid for during 1964. 15 For detail see BLS Bulletin 1428, 1963 (BLS Bulletin 1470, 1965). op. c i t ., and Supplementary Compensation for Nonproduction Workers, Over nine-tenths of all employees were in companies with contributory pension and retirement plans; the remainder were employed by companies with noncontributory plans. Companies with contributory plans had lower expenditures (5.3 percent of total compensation) than did the few companies reporting expendi tures under noncontributory plans (7.3 percent of total compensation). Savings and Thrift Plans. More than nine-tenths of all pipeline em ployees worked for companies that had expenditures for savings and thrift plans in 1964. Only a few small companies reported no expenditures in 1964 for such plans. Outlays in companies with expenditures for such plans comprised 3.8 p er cent of total compensation and ranged from 1 to 7 percent of total compensation. When divided among all paid hours, these expenditures amounted to 17.5 cents per hour and ranged from 4 to 35 cents per hour. Composition of Payroll Hours Alm ost 9 out of every 10 time.

The average pipeline employee received pay for roughly 5 weeks of leave time during 1964; the majority (76 percent) received 3 weeks or more of paid vacation and almost all (90 percent) were in companies that had a practice of paying for 8 holidays. Ninety-two percent of the workers were employed by com panies in which 40 hours was the usual workweek for a majority of the employees. T a b le 1.

Appendix A. Expenditures as Proportions of Payroll In the body of the text, all supplements have been measured as a proportion of total compensation. This approach allows one to examine the level and structure of compensation expenditures. However, for some purposes, it may be desirable to examine expenditures for pay supplements in different ways. Two of the techniques often used are to express these outlays as percentages of gross or of straight-time payroll. 16 The first appendix table expresses supplementary expenditures in these term s. The second shows the percent distribution of workers by employer expenditures for particular supplements as a percent of gross payroll. It should be noted that the supplements when measured as a percent of gross or straight-time payroll cannot be added to other payroll statistics since some sup plements are part of payroll while others are in addition to payroll. The appendix tables permit comparison of expenditures in the pipeline industry with similar statistics published by BLS in prior years for other industries. 16 Straight-time pay is derived by subtracting overtim e, weekend, holiday, and shift premiums from gross payroll. 11 T able A - 1.

Scope and Method of Survey Scope of Survey and Industry Classification This study of employer expenditures for the compensation of employees covers all companies in SIC 461— petroleum pipelines— classified in accordance with the 1957 edition of the Standard Industrial Classification Manual (SIC) and 1963 Supplement prepared by the U.S. Bureau of the Budget. Survey coverage extended to the 50 States and the District of Columbia. Data relate to the calendar year 1964, and are limited to irrevocable cash disbursements of employers (thus excluding amounts segregated in bookkeeping transactions over which the company retained control) for the compensation of employees. Definition of Terms Compensation, for purposes of this study, is defined as the sum of the payments, subject to Federal withholding taxes, made by employers directly to their employees, before deductions of any type, and the expenditures made by employers for legally required insurance programs and private welfare plans to provide the worker with full— or partial— economic security against a future contingency (e.g., unemployment, retirement, medical expenses, etc.). Paid hours consist of aggregate hours, including paid leave hours, rest periods, coffee breaks, machine downtime, and other nonleave hours paid for but not worked, for which employers made direct payments to workers during the year. Working time excludes paid leave time. Expenditure ratios for "a ll companies" represent the expenditures for the practice divided by total compensation for all companies— both those with and without expenditures— whereas, the ratios for "companies with expenditures for the practice" relate the same expenditures to the total compensation of only those establishments that reported an actual expenditure. The expenditure rates represent the same expenditures divided by the c o rre sponding man-hours. The expenditure ratios used in the body of this report were obtained by using the following formulas: 1. Expenditures as a percent of compensation = Expenditure for the practice Total compensation (comprised of gross payroll, private welfare, and legally required insurance expenditures). 2. x jqq Expenditures in cents per paid hour = ____________Expenditure for the practice____________ Total paid hours including hours of paid leave. 3. Expenditures in cents per working hour = ____________ Expenditure for the practice____________ Total paid hours minus hours of paid leave. The practices studied, which are itemized in the tables, are believed to comprise the major elements of compensation for workers in the pipeline industry. Some of the omitted practices, however, may occasion important expenditures in particular companies. Among the excluded practices were expenditures for such facilities as inplant medical care, cafeteria, recreation, and parking. The other terms used in this bulletin are defined on the questionnaire form , repro duced in appendix C, that was used in the study. 15 16 Collection of Data Data were collected primarily by personal visits. However, mail questionnaires were sent to a few companies in the sample. Personal visits also were made to a sample of companies which had not responded to two mail requests. Sampling Procedure The survey was conducted on the basis of a highly stratified probability sample. The sample was designed to permit presentation of data for the industry on a national level. The list of companies from which the sample was selected was developed from lists maintained by the State agencies administering the unemployment compensation laws and from a list maintained by the Interstate Commerce Commission for regulatory purposes. The sample was selected within the industry so as to yield the most accurate estimates possible with the resources available. This was done by including in the sample a greater proportion of large companies than of small. In general, a company's chance of selection was roughly proportionate to its employment size. Data were obtained from ZZ companies employing approximately 1 1,000 workers— about 5 5 percent of the total employment in the industry during 1964. Method of Estimation Data for each sample company were weighted in accordance with the probability of selection of that company. For instance, where 1 company out of Z was selected in a size-industry class, it was considered as representing itself as well as another company, i.e ., it was given a weight of Z. Thus, if the company had 1,000 hours of paid vacation leave and 50,000 hours of paid hours of all classes, it would contribute Z, 000 vacation hours and 100, 000 total hours to the final estimate. Reporting Problems Separate data by company and type of supplementary compensation practice were collected in most cases. However, all companies do not keep records in a manner that enables them to furnish actual figures in this detail, and some approximations had to be accepted. Estimates, using collateral data, were made in certain cases where records were not kept or were summarized only for specific practices. It should be noted that errors in the use of estimating procedures would have to be in the same direction in each case (overstatement o r understatement of actual values) to have a cumulative effect on the accuracy of the r e s u l t s , Appendix C.

If records do not permit reporting separate figures for the two groups, and estimates cannot be made, enter a combined figure and indicate that it is for operating and nonoperating employees. Operating Employees are supervisory and nonsupervisory employees who work aboard moving vehicles, such as bus and taxi drivers; marine engineers, seamen, cooks; and airline pilots. However, ex clude workers who merely move vehicles to or from loading, main tenance, or parking areas and operators of construction equipment or loading devices such as baggage or forklift trucks. Reports for marine cargo handling should treat all pier personnel as operating employees. Nonoperating Employees include all supervisory and nonsupervisory employees not classified as operating employees, such as pumpmen, shop maintenance employees, and office workers. Reports for pipe lines should treat all employees as nonoperating employees. If the only figure available combines data for several lines on this questionnaire, report the combined figure and bracket the lines in cluded or otherwise indicate what is included in the figure reported. If exact information is not available for an item, where possible please provide a carefully considered estimate. If any of the figures r e ported are estimated, please list on page 8 the items which were estimated and indicate how the estimates were made.
