The survey was part of a broad program of studies initiated by the U. S. Department of Labor for continuing appraisal of Federal m inim um -wage legislation. The June 1961 find ings w ill be used as a basis for m easuring changes in em ployment, earnings, and hours of work resulting from amendments to the Fair Labor Standards Act, which b e came effective in September 1961, The statistics were obtained from a nationwide survey of retail trade (excluding eating and drinking places) conducted by the Bureau of Labor Statistics for a June 1961 payroll period. Data are provided separately for men and women; the Northeast, South, North Central, and West regions of the United States; m etropolitan and nonm etropol itan areas; and for retail enterprises and establishm ents by their annual volume of sales. Appendix A provides technical information on the scope and method of the su r vey, as w ell as definitions of term s. A copy of the ques tionnaire used in the survey is shown in appendix B. Comprehensive statistical data for each of the m ajor retail groups com prising retail trade and for s e lected lines of retail business are available in individual bulletins. A listing of these bulletins and an order form appear on the last page of this bulletin. The Wage and Hour and Public Contracts D ivisions participated in the planning of the survey and provided the n ecessary funds. The bulletin was prepared in the Bureau's D ivision of Wages and Industrial Relations under the gen eral supervision of Herbert Schaffer. Norman J. Samuels directed the survey and Samuel F. Cohen and Theodore J. Golonka developed the statistical and sampling procedures.

This bulletin p rovid es com p reh en sive inform ation on the m akeup of the o v era ll wage stru ctu re in reta il trade. N on su p ervisory em p loyees averaged $ 1 .6 2 an hour, at stra ig h t-tim e ra tes, in June 1961, an in c r e a se of 21 cents an hour sin ce the la st com p reh en sive re ta il trade su rvey in O ctober 1956. 1 F ourteen p ercen t of the w ork ers earned le s s than $1 an hour, 37 p ercen t earned le s s than $ 1 .2 5 , and 23 p ercen t earned at le a st $ 2 an hour. Among four broad region s in the United S ta tes, average earnings ranged from $ 1 .3 2 an hour in the South to $ 2 .0 1 in the W est. W orkers em ployed in m etrop olitan areas averaged $ 1 .7 3 an hour com pared with $ 1 .3 9 for th ose in nonm etropolitan a r e a s. Men averaged $ 1 .8 0 , or 48 cents an hour m ore than w om en. R etail e n terp rises with annual sa le s of at le a st $1 m illio n paid an a v erage of $ 1 .7 4 an hour, com pared with $ 1 .5 1 in en terp rises with a low er sa le s volum e.

Of the 844,400 reta il em p loyees in the country earning le s s than $1 an hour, 64 p ercen t w ere located in the South, 53 p ercen t w orked in non m etrop olitan a rea s, 56 p ercen t w ere w om en, and 47 p ercen t w ere em ployed in estab lish m en ts with annual sa le s of le s s than $250, 000 which w ere part of en te r p r ise s with annual sa le s of le s s than $1 m illio n . M ore than a fourth of the n on su p ervisory em p loyees in reta il trade worked le s s than 35 hours a w eek, about the sam e proportion worked 40 hours a w eek, and alm ost th ree-ten th s w orked in e x c e ss of 44 hours a week during the su rvey period. A verage w eekly earnings varied from $11. 67 for those w ork ing le s s than 15 hours to $ 8 5 .0 6 for those w orking exactly 44 hours a w eek. The su rvey a lso provided inform ation sep ara tely for the 7 m ajor kinds of r e ta il activity which com p rise reta il trade (excep t eating and drinking p la ces), as w ell as for 11 lin es of reta il b u sin ess. 2 The le v e l of earnings in gen eral m erch an d ise, apparel, and m iscella n eo u s reta il sto res fe ll below the n ation wide reta il average, w hile earnings in furniture, hom e fu rn ish in gs, and h o u se hold ap p lian ces, building m a te r ia ls, and autom otive d ea lers and ga solin e s e r v ic e station s exceeded the average.

The m ajor ou tlet for the m ovem ent of r e ta il m erch an d ise is through sto r e s, but m a il-o rd er h o u ses, d irect sellin g organ iza tion s, and autom atic vending m achines also p erform the sam e function. R etail esta b lish m en ts range in siz e from in dividually operated sto res to large departm ent sto r e s. A ccording to the 1958 C ensus of B u sin e ss, n early 478, 000 r e ta il esta b lish m en ts (excluding eating and drinking p la ces) had few er than 4 paid em p lo y ees, com pared w ith about 122, 000 esta b lish m en ts w ith 10 or m ore paid em p lo y ees. The total volum e of sa le s in la r g e -s iz e esta b lish m en ts, how ever, w as su b stan tially grea ter than in the sm a ll-s iz e esta b lish m en ts. In term s of num ber of o u tlets, the reta il industry is dom inated by sin gle unit fir m s, w hich accounted for alm ost n in e-ten th s of the total num ber of esta b lish m en ts (exclu d ing eating and drinking p la ces) and for n early tw o-th ird s of the total s a le s. B ecau se the r e ta il industry m ust serv e the needs of the en tire popula tion, reta il a ctiv ity extends to even the sm a lle st rural com m unity. Of the m ore than 6 m illio n n on su p ervisory em p loyees included in the June 1961 study, about 1.8 m illio n , or 30 p ercen t, w ere em ployed outside m etrop olitan a rea s. Tw entysix p ercen t of the n on su p ervisory em p loyees w ere located in the N orth east, 29 p e r cent in the South, 30 p ercen t in the North C entral region, and 15 p ercen t w ere in the W est. R etail trade is com p rised of seven m ajor industry groups, excluding eating and drinking p la c e s. G eneral m erch an d ise sto res accounted for the la r g e st proportion of em p loyees included in the nationw ide su rvey (23 p ercen t). This group included departm ent sto res w hich had 13 p ercen t of the total em ploym ent, and lim ited p rice va riety sto res w hich had 5 p ercen t. The food group w as the second la r g e st and included g ro cery sto res which em ployed 17 p ercen t of the n on su p ervisory w o rk ers.

W om en, for exam p le, rep resen ted the m ajority of w ork ers in lim ited p rice va riety sto r e s, w om en 1 s rea d y -to -w ea r sto r e s, drug sto r e s, and departm ent sto r e s, w hile m en dom inated em ploym ent in the other lin es of b u sin ess for w hich data are shown sep a ra tely . The m ajority of w ork ers in each line of b u sin ess w ere located in m etropolitan a rea s, but the proportions ranged from 60 p ercen t for m otor v eh icle d ealers to 85 p ercen t for departm ent sto res (table 1). E n terp rises w ith g r o ss annual sa le s of $ 1 m illio n or m ore em ployed all but 5 p ercen t of the w ork ers in departm ent sto r e s, and a m ajority in lim ited p rice v a riety s to r e s , g ro cery s to r e s, and at m otor v eh icle d ea lers. O ccupational req u irem en ts varied w ithin as w ell as among b u sin ess lin e s. V irtu ally all reta il sto res em ploy sa lesm en , but sm a ller sto res m ay have only a few em p loyees to handle the sellin g , buying, recordk eep in g, cred it, a d v ertis ing, and other functions. In a large sto re, w ork is d ep artm entalized so that e m p lo yees m ay sp e c ia liz e in only one of these reta il functions. C ertain n on sellin g occupations require sp ecia l s k ills , and are p ecu liar to certain lin es of b u sin ess, such as p h arm acists in drug s to r e s, ta ilo rs and s e a m str e sse s in clothing sto r e s, m eatcu tters in g ro cery s to r e s, and jew elers and w atch rep airm en in jew elry sto r e s. Som e sa le s p osition s require lim ited training, w hile oth ers dem and a thorough knowledge of the m erch an d ise, and exp erien ce in handling cu sto m ers. Wage paym ents on a tim e b a sis as w ell as in the form of co m m issio n s and bonuses are com m on in reta il trad e. The exten sive use of the la tter m ethod accounts, in part, for the wide range of earnings found in reta il trad e. S easonal fluctuations in consum er dem and produce changes in em p lo y m ent le v e ls . S ales for m any lin es of b u sin ess in crea se sh arp ly during certain p erio d s, such as C h ristm as and E a ster, creatin g a need for a supplem entary w ork fo rce. R egular p a rt-tim e em p loyees are needed for daily and w eek ly v a r ia tion in cu stom er volum e as w ell as for those sto res w hich are open long hours to the public. A ll of th ese factors affect the le v e ls and distrib u tion s of earnings found in reta il trad e. They are, how ever, in terrela ted and the extent to w hich any one of th ese factors in flu en ces w ages has not been esta b lish ed . A verage H ourly E arnings— A ll N on su p ervisory E m p loyees N o n su p ervisory em p loyees in reta il esta b lish m en ts in the United States averaged $ 1 .6 2 an hour, ex clu siv e of prem ium pay for ov ertim e w ork, in June 1961. E arnings for the 6. 1 m illio n w ork ers rep resen ted by the su rvey data w ere w id ely distributed; pay for n in e-ten th s of the em p loyees ranged from 75 cents to $ 3 an hour; and for the m iddle half of the w ork ers from $ 1. 07 to $ 1.9 3 an hour (table 2).

In the W est, on the other hand, all but 3 p ercen t earned at le a st $1 an hour and 40 p ercen t earned $ 2 or m o re. D if feren ces betw een the N orth east and N orth C entral region s w ere confined, for the m ost part, to the low er pay le v e ls .

A verage H ourly E arnings— Men and W omen The earnings of m en in reta il trade w ere su b stan tially higher than those of w om en. A verage hourly earnings of m en w ere $ 1 .8 0 , 48 cen ts an hour above the average for w om en (tables 3 and 4). H alf of the m ore than 3 .6 m illio n m en included in the su rvey earned $ 1 .6 0 or m ore and a third earned at le a st $2 an hour. By con trast, alm ost sim ila r proportions of the w om en earned $ 1 .2 5 or m ore and $ 1 .4 0 or m ore an hour, r esp ectiv ely .

Although the earnings of m en w ere higher than those of w om en in each of the reg io n s, average earnings of $ 1 .5 9 for w om en in the W est w ere 16 cents an hour m ore than those for m en in the South. About a fourth of the w om en in the W est had earnings of le s s than $ 1 .2 5 , com pared w ith n early half of the m en in the South.

A verage H ourly E arnings—-M etropolitan and N onm etropolitan A reas C om m unity s iz e appeared to be one of the factors w hich influenced the le v e l and distrib u tion of earnings in reta il trad e.

W orkers in the le s s urbanized areas accounted for 53 p ercen t of the N ation's reta il em p loyees earning le s s than $ 1 and for 62 p ercen t earning le s s than 75 cents an hour.
