Estimates of labor organization membership and of
workers represented by unions and associations present
ed in this publication are based on information collected
by the Bureau of the Census in the May 1980 Current
Population Survey and tabulated by the Bureau of La
bor Statistics. For purposes of this survey, a labor or
ganization may be either a union or an employee asso
ciation that engages in collective bargaining.
This bulletin cross-tabulates data on employed wage
and salary workers who are members of labor organi
zations and those who are not members but are repre
sented by labor organizations, by occupation, industry,
region, weekly earnings, sex, race, and age.
All estimates in this bulletin are comparable with
those published in Earnings and Other Characteristics of
Organized Workers, May 1977 (BLS Report 556, 1979).
The membership estimates in this report are not com
parable with those published in the Bureau’s biennial
Directory of National Unions and Employee Associations.
The appendix briefly discusses the differences between
these studies.
This study was prepared by Larry T. Adams, an
economist in the Division of Developments in LaborManagement Relations, under the direction of Alvin
Bauman, Chief.

Summary
Extending into every industrial sector and occupa
tional group in the Nation, labor organizations repre
sented 25.7 percent of the 87.5 million employed pri
vate and government wage and salary workers in May
1980 (chart 1 and text table 1). A slightly lower pro
portion (23.0 percent of the workers) were actual mem
bers of labor organizations. About seven-tenths of the
20.1 million members of labor organizations were em
ployed in private enterprises; the remainder worked for
Federal, State, and local governments.
In 1980, 42.5. percent of the civilian labor force were
women. Nevertheless, they accounted for only 30.1 per
cent of the employed wage and salary workers in labor
organizations in May 1980. In contrast, blacks and oth
er minority races1 made up 1.7 percent of the civilian
noninstitutional labor force, but constituted 14.9 per
cent of labor organization members in May 1980. Pro
portionately more black men (33.8 percent) belonged
to labor organizations than white men (27.8 percent),
but the differences were even greater among women:
24.0 percent for black women and 14.6 percent for white
women (text table 2).
Better than half (52.3 percent) of the 22.5 million
workers represented by labor organizations were bluecollar workers, 37.7 percent were white-collar work
ers, and 9.9 percent were service workers. Among the
20.1 million labor organization members, 55.2 percent
were blue collar, 34.9 percent were white collar, and
9.7 percent were service workers. For the 2.4 million
workers not members of a labor organization but cov
ered by labor agreements, the pattern was different:
Only 27.6 percent were blue-collar workers compared
to 61.1 percent who were white-collar workers and 11.1
percent who were service workers.
Two of the ten industry groups, manufacturing and
service, accounted for more than one-half (32.5 percent
and 25.4 percent, respectively) of the workers repre
sented by labor organizations. These two industry1

workers” in this bulletin. Black persons constituted 85 percent of
black and other minority races in the 1980 census.

groups accounted for 57.3 percent of workers belong
ing to labor organizations and 63.2 percent of repre
sented nonmembers. While the service industry ac
counted for slightly more than one-quarter of the re
presented workers, it employed 41 percent of the non
members covered by a contract.
Of the approximately 4.7 million Hispanic (all races)
wage and salary workers in May 1980, 29 percent were
represented by a labor organization, compared with 32.1
percent for blacks and 24.9 percent for whites. The
greatest number of Hispanics were in blue-collar occu
pations in manufacturing industries. Second in impor
tance were the service industries. However, agriculture
had the largest proportion of Hispanic workers.
Workers represented by labor organizations earned
more than those who were not. Their usual weekly
earnings exceeded those of workers not represented by
$42 ($320 compared to $278). Organized workers in the
construction industry had the highest earnings, $405.
Workers in construction who were not represented
earned $121 less. While many factors are involved in
worker compensation, collective bargaining through laText tab!© 1. Distribution of employed wage and salary

ceeded these levels, however; about 63 percent of met
al craft workers and machinists were represented, for
example. Nearly 86 percent of motor vehicle and equip
ment operatives were represented by labor organiza
tions, by far the strongest representation among all bluecollar occupations. Among blue-collar nonfarm labor
ers, a higher proportion (65 percent) of those employed
in transportation, communication, and public utilities
had labor union representation than in any other indus
trial sector (table 7).
Although black workers and white workers in the
blue-collar occupations were represented at approxi
mately the same rate (about 42 percent), there were
significantly different representation rates for these
groups of workers in the white-collar and service oc
cupations. While 30 percent of the black workers em
ployed in white-collar occupations were represented by
labor organizations, only 17 percent of white workers
similarly employed were covered by a collective bar
gaining agreement. Though the difference was smaller,
this relationship was the same in the service occupa
tions, with a representation rate of 22 percent for black
workers, compared to 17 percent for white workers.
Generally, for both sexes, the representation rate for
black workers exceeded that for white workers in each
major occupational group.
Of the 2.4 million workers covered by labor contracts
who were not members of a union or employee asso
ciation in May 1980, almost 1.5 million (5 out of 8) were
white-collar workers. Although this ratio may seem

bor organizations is at least partially responsible for the
wage difference.
White-collar workers had the smallest earnings gap
(7 percent) between those represented and those not
represented by a labor organization. The differentials
for the other two occupational groups were much
larger-26 percent for blue-collar workers and 47 per
cent for service workers.

Historically, labor organization has been most high
ly concentrated among blue-collar workers. In May
1980, 11.8 million workers represented by labor organ
izations were in this occupational group, nearly 11 mil
lion of them employed in the private sector (table 9).
Slightly more than 41 percent of all blue-collar work
ers were represented by labor organizations. The pro
portions were much lower for white-collar and service
workers-only about 18 percent each were represented
by labor organizations (table 1).
Among the major groups of blue-collar occupations,
transport equipment operatives were the most highly
organized with a 47-percent representation rate-fol
lowed by operatives (except transport) and craft and
kindred workers (both with rates of approximately 42
percent), and nonfarm laborers (35 percent).
Many individual occupations within these groups ex

large, these employees constituted only 3 percent of all
white-collar workers. Among blue-collar and service
workers, the comparable figure was 2 percent.
Industry characteristics
Industries which traditionally employ large numbers
of blue-collar workers generally had a higher concen
tration of workers covered by collective bargaining
contracts (tables 4, 7, and 8). Thus, over one-third of
all employed wage and salary workers in construction
and manufacturing, and. over one-half in transportation
and public utilities were represented by labor organi
zations. The railroad industry and the postal service,
with 83 percent of the workers covered by collective
bargaining agreements, had the highest representation
rate. In contrast, 11 percent or less of the employees in
agriculture; trade; and finance, insurance, and real es
tate were represented by labor organizations.
Within manufacturing, however1, there was consider
able variation in the representation rate. In the prima
ry metals and automobile industries, 63 percent of the
employed wage and salary workers were represented,
contrasted with 14 percent in instrument manufactur
ing. Two-fifths of the 2.2 million employed wage and
salary workers in public administration were represent
ed in May 1980. Slightly more than 43.4 percent of the
6.1 million wage and salary workers employed by Fed
eral, State, and local governments were represented by
a union or employee association.
Earnings
Primarily because of higher earnings by blue-collar
workers, the most highly organized occupational group,
usual weekly earnings of workers represented by labor
organizations, at $320, exceeded those of workers not
represented by $42 in May 1980 (table 10). Blue-collar
workers averaged $323, exceeding the average (mean)
weekly earnings of their unorganized counterparts by
$67. The widest earnings margins were achieved by
workers in skilled occupations in the building trades.
Organized construction craft workers, except carpen
ters, surpassed the average weekly earnings of those
not organized by $131.
Service workers represented by labor organizations
accounted for almost one-quarter of all employed full
time service employees, and averaged $81 a week more
than those who were not represented. The smallest
earnings differential was among white-collar workers.
Those who were covered by a labor agreement had
average weekly earnings of $330, only $11 more than
those not covered. As most high-paying professions
have not been significantly organized, professional,
technical, and kindred workers represented by labor
organizations earned $22 less than their nonrepresented
counterparts.
Workers not represented were more likely to be at
the lower end of the earnings scale than those who
were represented. Thirty-seven percent of those not re
presented earned less than $200 a week compared with
15.2 percent of those who were represented. At the top
of the scale, 24.4 percent of those not represented earned
at least $350, compared with 37.0 percent of those
represented.
In most industries, usual weekly earnings of workers
represented by labor organizations were higher than
those of workers not represented (table 11). The wid
est differentials were found in construction, where av
erage (mean) weekly earnings of workers represented
were 42 percent higher than those of workers who were
not. Construction, a highly seasonal industry, with usu
al weekly earnings of $405; Federal Government, with
an average of $395; and transportation, with an aver
age of $381, were the highest paying industries for
workers represented by a labor organization in 1980.
Black workers
Blacks made up a larger part of workers represented
by a labor organization than their proportion in the to
tal work force might indicate. While they made up 11.8
percent of employed wage and salary workers, they
constituted 14.7 percent of those represented by labor
organizations. In the white-collar occupations, especial
ly in clerical jobs, black workers were more likely to
be represented by labor organizations than white work
ers. Although 8.8 percent of all clerical workers were
black, more than 14.2 percent of the workers represent
ed by labor organizations in these jobs were black (ta
ble 16). Among the blue-collar occupations, the per
centage of blacks as a proportion of workers represent
ed by labor organizations (13.4 percent) was only slight
ly higher than the proportion of blacks to all blue-col
lar workers (12.9 percent).
Contract coverage among black workers exceeded
that for whites in most industries. In the durable goods
manufacturing group, for example, more than one-half
of all employed black wage and salary workers were
covered compared to less than two-fifths of white
workers.
Age
Employed wage and salary workers represented by
labor organizations had a median age of 37.7 years, 3.9
years older than the median for nonrepresented work
ers (table 12). The median age of represented workers
was essentially the same for each race and sex cross
classification (black male, black female, white male, and
white female).
Workers represented by labor organizations were, on
average, older than their nonrepresented counterparts
3
Of the 6.1 million wage and salary workers added to
the work force between May 1977 and May 1980, ap
proximately 2.2 million workers, or 35 percent, were
employed in the service industries. Although the rep
resentation rate for the service sector was almost 5 per
centage points below the all-industry average of 26.5
percent in May 1977, approximately 35 percent of the
2.2 million additional service workers added to the work
force by May 1980 were covered by a contract. As a
result, the representation rate for the service sector rose
from 21.6 percent in May 1977 to 22.8 percent in May
1980.
Only two other industry groups gained a measurable
number of represented workers. In transportation, com
munications, and public utilities, the number of repre
sented workers increased by 300,000, approximately 51
percent of the 591,000 additional workers employed in
this group during the 1977-80 period. The representa
tion rate was unchanged at about 51 percent. The num

of represented workers in public administration rose
Changes from May 1977 to May 1980

Appendix: Survey Methods
and Limitations off Data
Current Population Survey methods
Reliability ©ff the estimates
The May 1980 Current Population Survey asked two
questions relating to participation in labor organizations.
One question related to actual membership in a union
or employee association; the other question, asked only
if the first were answered in the negative, related to
coverage of the worker by a union or employee asso
ciation contract. An employed wage or salary worker
who identified himself or herself as either a member of
a union or employee association, or as being covered
by a contract such an organization had with the em
ployer, was so classified. Only the worker’s present job
was considered.
Estimates were derived from a sample survey con
ducted by trained interviewers who collected informa
tion from about 65,000 households in 629 areas through
out the United States. Retirees, unemployed union mem
bers, and persons in the Armed Forces were excluded.
Since the estimates are based on a sample, they may
differ somewhat from the figures that would have been
obtained if a complete census had been taken using the
same schedules and procedures. As in any survey, the
results are subject to errors of response and reporting
as well as to sampling variability.
The standard error is primarily a measure of sampling
variability; that is, the variations that occur by chance
because a sample rather than the whole of the popula
tion is surveyed. As calculated for this bulletin, the
standard error also partially measures the effect of re
sponse and enumeration errors, but does not measure
any systematic biases in the data. The chances are about
2 out of 3 that an estimate from the sample would dif
fer from a complete census by less than the standard
error. The chances are about 19 out of 20 that the dif
ferences would be less than twice the standard error.
The following A and B characteristics are to be used
in the standard statistical formulas for determining
standard errors for data reported in this bulletin: For
earnings data, A = -0.0000671 and B = 8592; for all
other data, use the characteristics in table A-l.
Comparability
In 1979, the CPS survey design was modified to col
lect earnings data on a monthly basis rather than once
a year. Earnings data reported in this bulletin, collected
in May 1980, are comparable to the 1977 earnings data
reported in BLS Report 556. The parameters in table
A-l should be used in calculating standard errors for
all data (including earnings) reported in Report 556.
The figures on labor organization membership pre
sented in this bulletin are not comparable with data
from other sources due to differences in concepts, clas
sification, and coverage. Membership figures published
in the Bureau’s biennial Directory of National Unions
and Employee Associations in the United States were
based on responses to a questionnaire mailed directly
to all unions affiliated with the AFL-CIO, to unaffiliated unions that engage in collective bargaining with
different employers in more than one State, and to as
sociations that engage in collective bargaining. In 1978,
the reported U.S. membership based on the Directory
survey was 22.7 million. The membership figure deri
ved from the CPS May 1980 survey was 20.1 million.
The membership reports of labor unions sometimes in
clude in their totals persons who were excluded from
the CPS survey.'
Limitations ©f earning data
It has long been recognized that, compared to the
collection of earnings data from payroll records, the

collection of the same information through a household
sample survey involves the loss of a certain amount of
accuracy in exchange for a gain in specific information
on the demographic characteristics of wage earners.
For example, experience demonstrates that in a house
hold survey, the nonresponse rates are higher for ques
tions about earnings than for other questions. Over the
years since 1967, the nonresponse rate on weekly earn
ings has ranged from about 16 percent to 20 percent.
Whether the nonresponse problem produces an upward
or downward bias (or no bias at all) on the earnings
averages derived from the survey depends on how the
nonresponsive households are distributed among the
sample population. If, for example, nonresponses on
earnings tend to be concentrated among households
with high earnings levels, then the earnings levels re
ported in the survey would be biased downward. If,
however, the nonresponses are distributed randomly,
no bias would exist. (For a more complete discussion
of the merits and limitations of earnings data obtained
from the May CPS, see Technical Description of the
Quarterly Data on Weekly Earnings from the Current
Population Survey (Report 601, Bureau of Labor Statis
tics, July 1980.)
