Preface
This bulletin updates industry indexes of output per man-hour and
output per employee for the industries currently included in the U. S.
Governments productivity measurement program. The data cover the years
1939 and 1947 to 1973. Indexes for the intercity trucking, telephone,
paint, and pharmaceutical industries are added for the first time.
The selected industries for which output per man-hour indexes are
shown are not necessarily a representative cross section of American
industry. They should not be combined, therefore, to obtain an overall
measure for the entire economy or for any sector. Each index is
intended to represent only the change in output per man-hour for the
designated industry or combination of industries. However, the Bureau
of Labor Statistics does publish indexes of output per man-hour and
related measures for the total private economy and for major sectors of
the economy — nonfarm, manufacturing, and nonfinancial corporations.
Those measures show the relationship between gross product originating
in the private economy or in its major sectors, and employment and man­
hours.
(These data are presented in the Bureau of Labor Statistics*
Productivity and Costs in the Private Economy (quarterly), in Produc­
tivity arid Costs in Nonfinancial Corporations (quarterly), in the
Monthly Labor Review, and in Employment and Earnings.)
Productivity measures in this study describe the relationship
between output in real terms and labor time involved in its production.
They show the changes from year to year in the amount of labor time
required to produce a unit of output. Although the measures relate
output to employment and man-hours, they do not measure the specific
contributions of labor, capital, or any other factor of production.
Rather, they reflect the joint effect of a number of interrelated
influences, such as changes in technology, capital investment per
worker, changes in the level of output, utilization of capacity, layout
and flow of material, managerial skill, and skills and effort of the
work force.
This bulletin was prepared in the Bureau’s Office of Productivity
and Technology by John Carey, Richard Carnes, John Duke, John Ferris,
Brian Friedman, John Henneberger, Clyde Huffstutler, Barbara Koch,
Phyllis Otto, Elmer Persigehl, James Urisko, and Patricia Wilder, under
the direction of Charles Ardolini, Horst Brand, and Arthur Herman.

Highlights of Trends in Output Per Man-Hour

Current developments
Productivity increased between 1972 and 1973 in almost three-quarters
of the selected industries presented in this report. The gains ranged
from a high of 12.3 percent for the aluminum rolling and drawing industry
to a low of 0.3 percent for coal mining. Productivity growth in most
industries, however, was slower from 1972-73 than in the previous year.
Declines in productivity were recorded by 10 industries in 1973, as com­
pared with seven in 1972. This situation parallels the trend in the total
private sector of the economy, where output per man-hour increased 3.0
percent between 1972-73, down from 3.8 percent between 1971-72.
Steel manufacturing was one of the few industries that had a
significant gain over the previous year. Output per man-hour grew 10.8
percent between 1972-73, compared to 5.8 percent between 1971-72. This
economically important industry had a record production level in 1973, as
demand continued high throughout the year. A high output level allowed
the industry to take full advantage of its recently installed modern
capital equipment, including basic oxygen furnaces and continuous casting
units. Output gained 19.0 percent between 1972-73, while man-hours
increased 7.4 percent, resulting in the largest productivity gain for the
steel industry since 1959. The situation in motor vehicles manufacturing,
another major industry, was quite different. Productivity grew by only
2.7 percent between 1972-73, down from 4.1 percent in the previous year,
and well below the long term average of 3.9 percent from 1957-72. This
industry was greatly affected by the petroleum shortage in the latter
part of 1973. While demand was high during the first three quarters of
the year, it dropped sharply in the last quarter. Man-hours did not
drop off nearly as much as output in the fourth quarter, as manufac­
turers began to make major changes in production facilities to build
more small cars. Despite the falloff in auto sales at the end of the
year, output of motor vehicles grew by 14.0 percent between 1972 and
1973. However, man-hours almost matched this gain, growing by 11.0 per­
cent, resulting in the small increase in productivity.
Two other industries significantly affected by the energy shortage
were tires and paint manufacturing. Productivity in these industries
declined 4.6 and 3.9 percent, respectively. Many of the materials used
to make tires and paint are petroleum based and were in very short
supply in 1973. Another factor in the productivity decline for the tire
industry was the increase in production of radial tires. Auto manufac­
turers made radials standard for many new cars in 1975. This required a
rapid shift to new production facilities by the industry. Among other
energy related industries, petroleum refining posted a large productivity




1

gain of 9.0 percent, based on an increase in output of 6.4 percent and
a decline in man-hours of 2.3 percent. Bituminous' coal and lignite
mining and gas and electric utilities, on the other hand, had very small
productivity increases of 0.6 and 0.4 percent, respectively.
Over the short term, gains in productivity generally can be related
to gains in output. This was the case between 1972-73, when more than
three-quarters of the Industries had output increases and almost 90 per­
cent of these had productivity gains. However, output Increased less In
most industries than the previous year, while man-hours increased more,
resulting in the less favorable productivity growth situation in 1973.
The employment picture among the selected industries, however, was very
good, with about 80 percent recording gains between 1972-73, as compared
with about 60 percent the previous year.
Long term trends
All of the industries for which data are available had gains in
productivity over the 26-year period — 1947-73. Increases ranged from
a high of 7.6 percent for air transportation to a low of 1.3 percent for
the footwear and cigarette manufacturing industries.
(See table 1.) A
significant factor resulting in the low productivity rate for the foot­
wear industry was the inability to mechanize production operations due
to changing styles and the great number of sizes produced.
The cigarette
industry, on the other hand, has been highly mechanized for a long time.
However, technological changes over the period were not significant. The
high growth rate for air transportation can be attributed largely to the
adoption .of the jet plane which increased the speed, capacity, and range
of air travel.
In the more recent period, 1968-73, productivity rates ranged from
a high of 9.1 percent for man-made fibers to a low of -3.2 percent for
coal mining.
(See chart 1.) About two-thirds of the industries had
growth rates that were lower than the preceding period (1948-68 for most
industries). The fairly general slowdown in the growth rate among the
selected industries is in line "with the experience in the total private
economy, where output per man-hour grew at a rate of 2.6 percent from
1968-73, as compared to 3.2 percent from 1948-68. The coal mining indus­
try had a small average increase in output in the 1968-73 period which
was more than offset by a large average increase in man-hours, resulting
in the significant decrease in productivity. Among the reasons for the
productivity decline in this industry were more stringent safety regula­
tions, which particularly slowed production in underground mines, but
affected surface mines also, and the impact of work stoppages.
(For a
graphic presentation of the long term trends in output per man-hour and
related data for the selected industries, see charts 2-84.)

New measures
Telephone Communications. Output per man-hour in telephone
communications rose at an average annual rate of 6.4 percent between 1951
and 1973, with output advancing at the very high rate of 8.1 percent
annually, and man-hours at 1.6 percent. Between 1972-73, labor produc­
tivity in the industry increased by 4.7 percent, slightly below the long
term rate. Output advanced at 7.8 percent and man-hours at 3.0 percent.
Rapid expansion in the demand for telephone service, together with
the introduction of laborsaving technologies have been the chief sources
of the large productivity gains in the industry. The wide availability
of telephones — there are more than 60 telephones per 100 persons in the
United States — has in itself spurred demand. The dispersion of homes
and businesses in suburbs, population mobility, and the growing communica­
tions needs of business and government have been additional demand
sources.
Long-distance calls, in particular, have been affected by
technological developments. Coaxial cables now have a capacity of more
than 90,000 calls transmitted simultaneously, 15 times the number such
cables transmitted two decades ago. The capacity of microwave trans­
mitters has tripled in recent years. These and related developments
have encouraged direct dialing of long-distance calls, as well as
accelerated the demand for private lines. However, technological progress
in local service has been slower, and such service, therefore, still
requires relatively more labor per unit of output than toll call service.
Continued productivity gains are likely for the telephone industry,
although population factors will figure less prominently as a source of
demand growth, since the proportion of households with telephones already
runs to well over nine-tenths. Technological improvements, however, seem
likely to continue to prove laborsaving. Electronic switching, for
example, requires less maintenance and repair than electro-mechanical
switching systems. The space satellite also will have an impact on
communications.
Intercity Trucking. Output per employee in the intercity trucking
industry increased at an average rate of 2.7 percent a year between 1954
and 1973. This moderate rate of increase derives from output and employ­
ment increases of 6.2 percent and 3.4 percent, respectively. The produc­
tivity rate is substantially lower than in other segments of the trans­
portation industry, such as air carriers, railroads, and pipelines. The
growth in intercity trucking productivity has reflected the gradual
introduction of technological innovation, larger capacity trucks, and an
improved interstate highway system.




3

Between 1972-73, output per employee for the industry grew by 4.7
percent. This greater than average gain in productivity resulted from
a large increase in demand for trucking services, particularly in the
first half of 1973.
Normal expansion in the production and distribution of goods should
continue to contribute to growth of output of the trucking industry and
may spur increases in productivity. Truckers expect to increase produc­
tivity by using twin- and triple-trailer operations more extensively and
by meeting shippers1 transportation needs through greater use of
specialized trucks. In addition, recent changes in ICC rulings with
regard to number of trips, points served, and rate schedules are expected
to result in consolidation of shipments and shortening trip length by
eliminating circuitous routes.
Since 1955, rail piggyback carloadings have increased tenfold
compared with a threefold increase in intercity truck haulage. Similar
intermodal links are now also being established with water and air­
freight carriers.
Such links will undoubtedly raise the productivity of
freight transportation as a total system, but may diminish the relative
importance of long-distance trucking.
Pharmaceutical Preparations. Output per man-hour in the
pharmaceutical industry rose at an average annual rate of 4.9 percent
over the 1963-73 decade. Output grew at the very high rate of 8.0 per­
cent annually, and all employee man-hours at 3.0 percent. Between
1972-73, output per man-hour grew 1.4 percent, well below the long term
average. Output rose by 5.4 percent and man-hours by 4.0 percent.
Productivity advances in the pharmaceutical industry have been
spurred by strong demand as well as technological improvements. Signifi­
cant demand factors include the large size of population groups suscepti­
ble to infectious and organic illiness, i.e., children under 5 and adults
55 years old and over. These groups totaled 56 million persons in 1970,
6 percent more than in 1960. In addition, rising incomes, the'expanding
availability of public arfd private funds for health care, and spreading
health awareness contributed to a broadening of the demand for drugs.
Processing technology has been steadily improved, with tableting
presses currently compressing up to twice as many units as in the middle
sixties, and mixing and granulating processes speeded up by a factor of
three in some plants over the past 10-15 years. Automated and semiautomated techniques for quality control, an integral part of pharma­
ceutical production operations, have recently been introduced. Computers
compare the results generated by quality control equipment with standard
specifications. These have tended to eliminate the chance of computa­
tional error, and have helped raise the number of samples run through the
analytical devices, which control quality, by six to eight times.




4

Continued gains in the industry’s productivity are likely in the
years ahead, since it is expected that output will keep growing at a
considerably faster rate than man-hours. Demand for drugs will continue
to be fueled by the needs of an aging population, and increasing aware­
ness of what is necessary to maintain good health. Product innovation,
a crucial factor in the industry’s expansion in the earlier postWorld War II period, will hinge more on breakthroughs in basic knowledge
concerning the drug action in man. A repetition of the "golden age of
drug development," which occurred between 1935 and 1965, and which was
based on the development of such anti-infectives as penicillins and, to
a lesser extent, on oral contraceptives, is not expected soon.
Paints and Allied Products. Output per man-hour grew at the moderate
rate of 2.5 percent between 1958-73, reflecting an average increase in
output of 3.7 percent and a gain in man-hours of 1.4 percent.
In the
more recent period, 1968-73, productivity grew at the slow pace of 1.0
percent. Among the reasons for the modest productivity growth were slow
introduction of improved technology for paint manufacturing, and slacken­
ing in the growth of the total economy in the latter part of the period.
Since paints and allied products are used as coatings for almost all
the goods produced in the economy, the slowdown in general economic
activity from 1968-73, reinforced by poor years in a number of industries
that are particularly large users of paint, such as motor vehicles,
furniture, and construction, led to a dropoff in production. Output grew
at an average annual rate of only 1.6 percent from 1968-73, compared with
4.7 percent from 1958-68. This in turn affected productivity adversely
during the period.
The paint industry was hit particularly hard by the petroleum
shortage in 1973. Many of the pigments, vehicles, and solvents used by
the industry are derived from petroleum, and were in very short supply.
It was mainly because of this problem that the industry had a decline in
output between 1972-73. This, coupled with an increase in man-hours,
resulted in a decline in productivity of 3.9 percent.
Paint production consists mainly of batch—manufacturing operations.
Changes in paintmaking techniques over the period measured have been
gradual.
Innovations in paintmaking have taken the form of more advanced
equipment, more efficiently designed plants, and more usable raw materials.
A number of new techniques for coating surfaces are growing in importance.
One of these, powder coating, may have an important impact on the indus­
try, since it requires a change in manufacturing techniques. The indus­
try has been affected by environmental controls which have increased the
shift from oil-based to water-based paints and led to reductions in the
use of lead and mercury ingredients.




5

The paint manufacturing industry consists of a large number of
small firms located throughout the country, and a few large firms with
high volume plants. Shipping costs tend to balance out economies of
scale, and the industry is highly competitive. Capital expenditures
per employee were generally below the average for all manufacturing
industries, and research and development expenditures were low. Assum­
ing the continuation of these constraints, plus production techniques
that are difficult to automate, the productivity growth rate for this
industry will probably continue to be below the manufacturing average.

Growth in Output Per Man-Hour in Selected Industries, 1968-73

Average annual percent change




8

Methods and Data
The Indexes of output per man-hour are computed by dividing an output
index by an index of aggregate man-hours. Corresponding measures also are
computed relating output to the number of employees. Thus, the industry
indexes presented measure changes in the relationship between output and
employment or man-hours. Indexes of unit labor requirements are not shown
in this issue. They may be derived for each industry, however, by divid­
ing an index of employment or man-hours by an index of output.
The output Indexes are based primarily on the physical output of the
products of the industry combined with fixed period weights. Unit man­
hour weights are used whenever possible. However, for most industries,
unit value weights, which are assumed to be proportional to unit man-hour
weights, are used as substitute weights.
Indexes for 1947-58 are based
on 1947 weights; for 1958-63, 1958 weights; for 1963-67, 1963 weights;
and for 1967-73, 1967 weights. For three industries — railroads, iron
mining, and copper mining — two alternative productivity measures,
using different concepts of industry output, are presented.
Employment and man-hour indexes are developed primarily from basic
data compiled by the Bureau of the Census or the Bureau of Labor Statis­
tics. In concept, indexes based on man-hour data from the Bureau of the
Census relate to plant hours only. Man-hour data from the Bureau of
Labor Statistics include not only hours at work but also payroll hours
such as vacations, holidays, and sick leave paid by the establishment
directly to the employee. 1/ In general, because of increases in paid
leave during the period, output per man-hour worked would tend to show
a somewhat higher rate of gain than output per man-hour paid. However,
actual differences may result from statistical limitations in the data
as well as from differences in concepts.
This report includes indexes of output per man-hour and output per
employee. In most cases the indexes are shown for all employees, pro­
duction workers, and nonproduction workers. 2/ Although both the Bureau

1/ Indexes for the railroad transportation industry are based on
data from the Interstate Commerce Commission (ICC), and are related
primarily to hours at work.
27 The term "production workers" has been used for many years to
cover manufacturing and mining employees who work at the plant or mine
and who are generally in nonsupervisory occupations. The remaining
employees, such as professional, technical, clerical, supervisory, etc.,
have been identified as "nonproduction workers."




9

of the Census and the Bureau of Labor Statistics provide data on
production worker man-hours, neither source provides annual data by
industry on nonproduction worker or all employee man-hoars. Therefore,
the nonproduction worker man-hours are estimated.
The estimates of aggregate nonproduction worker man-hours for the
manufacturing industries are derived from published employment data and
from estimates of average annual hours worked or paid per noiiproduct ion
worker. The estimates of average annual hours paid are calculated by
multiplying the number of workweeks in the year by the scheduled weekly
hours. Estimated hours for vacatipns, holidays, disability, and
personal time off are subtracted from average annual hours paid to obtain
an estimate of average annual hour$ worked. Vacation and holiday trends
are based on studies by the U.S. Department of Health, Education, and
Welfare, and on data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics surveys.
Personal time off has been estimated as a constant on the basis of data
obtained from various sources.
All employee man-hour estimates for manufacturing industries are
derived by summing the aggregate man-hours for production workers and
the estimated aggregate man-hours for nonproduction workers. 3/
Indexes involving nonproduction worker man-hours are subject to a
wider margin of error than are the indexes involving only production
worker man-hours, because it was necessary to estimate the average man­
hours of nonproduction workers. Any errors in these estimates, however,
would have a relatively insignificant effect on the indexes of man-hours
for all employees.
The output indexes and man-hour components of the industry
productivity indexes are based on data from a number of different sources
which are identified in the accompanying tables. For most of the indus­
tries, the 1973 output indexes are based on the data sources that are
regularly used. However, for some industries the normal data sources are
not as yet available, and estimates using other information, such as the
Federal Reserve Board output indexes, the Current Industrial Reports of
the Bureau of the Census, and trade association data, are used. For
those industries using the Bureau of the Census or ICC as the primary
source of employment and man-hours, the 1973 indexes are developed by
linking employment and man-hour data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics,
since 1973 Census data are not yet available. Because of these esti­
mates, all 1973 output per man-hour measures are considered preliminary
and are subject to revision.

3/ The ICC publishes all employee man-hours for the railroad
transportation industry.




10

The indexes refer to the standard reference base (1967*100) and
conform to the 1967 Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) system.
All average annual rates of change are based on the linear least
squares trends of the logarithms of the Index numbers. Average annual
rates of change for any time periods shown in this report are available
on request from the Bureau of Labor Statistics.
More detailed information on the methods, limitations, and data
sources, is contained in the BLS Handbook of Methods, BLS Bulletin 1711
(1971), Chapter 26, and in a number of individual industry reports.
These publications, as well as additional information, are available
on request from the Bureau of Labor Statistics.
