Under a cooperative ar rangement, the Bureau of Labor Statistics tabulates and publishes the data as part of a continuing series. This study was conducted in the Bureau's Divi sion of Occupational Pay, Toivo P. Kanninen, Chief, under the general direction of L. R. Linsenmayer, Assistant Commissioner for Wages and Industrial Relations. The analysis was prepared by Joseph C. Bush, under the im mediate supervision of L. Earl Lewis.

Employees of class A telephone carriers, accounting for 95 percent of the workers covered by the study, 2 averaged $2.96 an hour in December 1964. Nonmessenger employees of Western Union’ s wiretelegraph operations averaged $2.80 an hour and employees of international telegraph carriers (ocean-cable and radiotelegraph carriers) averaged $3.41 an hour in October 1964. Pay rates for employees of class A telephone carriers averaged 2.8 per cent more in December 1964 than in December 1963. This compares with in creases of 3.6 percent between 1962 and 1963, and 4. 1 percent between 1961 and 1962. Between October 1963 and October 1964, average hourly pay rates of non messenger employees of Western Union’ s wire-telegraph operations increased 3. 3 percent and those of employees of the international telegraph carriers, 5. 9 percent. Employment of class A telephone carriers increased from 604, 984 in December 1963 to 624, 408 in December 1964. This represents the second con secutive annual increase in employment after a steady decline from the peak in 1957 (681,600). The numbers of employees in Western Union's wire-telegraph operations and in international telegraph carriers were slightly lower in October 1964 than in October 1963, representing a continuing decline over the past sev eral years. Class A Telephone Carriers Pay Rates in December 1964. Basic wage rates of the 624, 408 employ ees (excluding officials and managerial assistants) of the 57 class A telephone carriers included in the study 3 averaged $2. 96 an hour in December 1964 (table 1). 1 As explained in the appendix, the pay data contained in this bulletin, which pertain to all workers except officials and managerial assistants, were computed by dividing scheduled weekly compensation by scheduled weekly hours. "Scheduled weekly compensation" for class A telephone carriers, as defined by the Federal Communications Commission, includes the basic weekly pay rate plus any regularly scheduled supplementary compensation, such as differentials for evening and night tours and certain perquisites. It excludes pay for overtime work and pay in excess of weekday rates for Sunday and holiday work. Scheduled weekly compensation of Western Union’s wire-telegraph employees excludes premium pay for overtime and for work on weekends, holidays, and late shifts. Since 1947, annual studies have been made in cooperation with the FCC. Prior to 1961, information forall carriers included in the annual reports relates to an October payroll period. Effective 1961, the reference datefor class A telephone carriers was changed to December. See appendix for scope and method of survey. 2 The study, based on reports of carriers under the full jurisdiction of the FCC, covered nearly nine-tenths of the estimated 710,300 employees of the Nation’s telephone communication industry in December 1964 and almost all of the employees in the telegraph communication industry in October 1964. 3 The study was limited to telephone carriers having an annual operating revenue of more, than $250,000 and subject to the full jurisdiction of the Federal Communications Commission. A total of 6, 343 officials and managerial assistants were not included in the study. See appendix regarding exclusion and inclusion of employees outside the conterminous 48 States and the District of Columbia. 1 Employment and Average Hourly Rates o f Communications Workers Except Officials and Managerial Assistants, October 1947-December 1964 3 Individual pay rates were widely dispersed, the middle half of the workers earn ing between $ 2 .05 and $ 3 .5 3 an hour. Factors contributing to this compara tively wide range of hourly rates include the great diversity of skills and re sponsibilities required by the industry, pay differences among regions, and the widespread practice of providing a range of rates for workers in a given job and locality. Wage rates and working conditions of class A telephone carrier employ ees are determined largely through collective bargaining. Agreements on file with the Bureau of Labor Statistics4 indicate that wage-rate schedules generally varied by occupational category, by region, among companies in the same region, and for a given occupation and company, by locality. Agreements typically pro vide a range of rates for a specific job and locality; rate differences between starting and maximum rates frequently amount to 100 percent or more. Advance ment from starting to maximum rates quite commonly involved from 10- to 14step increases over a 5- to 6-year period. Reflecting largely locality rate dif ferentials and length-of-service wage increases, the difference between the highest and lowest rates recorded for linemen, for example, amounted to more than $1 in 42 of the 57 class A telephone carriers included in the study. Occupationally, average rates of pay in December 1964 ranged from $ 1.66 for a small number of laborers (mostly in non-Bell companies) to $5.29 for professional and semiprofessional employees (excluding draftsmen). Women, constituting 56 percent of the class A telephone carrier work force, were employed largely in the telephone operator and clerical jobs. Ex perienced switchboard operators, virtually all women and comprising nearly onefifth of the total class A employment, averaged $2. 11 an hour. Nonsupervisory clerical employees (117,200 women and 8,857 men) averaged $2.28 an hour. Construction, installation, and maintenance employees, accounting for three-tenths of the total work force, averaged $3.38 an hour. Average hourly pay rates for numerically important occupations in this nearly all male category were: $3. 42 for exchange repairmen, $ 3 .3 4 for cable splicers, $3. 32 for testboard men and repeatermen, $3.27 for PBX and station installers, $3.19 for central office repairmen, and $2.67 for linemen. Regionally, average rates of pay for all employees ranged from $2. 59 an hour in the Southeast to $3.17 in the Middle Atlantic region. Pay rates in the Pacific, Great Lakes, and New England regions averaged $ 3 .08, $3 .0 3 , and $3 an hour, respectively, whereas averages in all other regions (except the Middle Atlantic) were below the national average of $2.96 (table 4). Average pay rates for the 10 occupational categories shown in table 4 were usually highest in the Middle Atlantic region and lowest in the Southeast or Mountain regions. The interregional spread in average pay rates varied by occupation. For example, experienced switchboard operators in the Middle Atlantic region averaged about 20 percent more than their counterparts in the Southeast, whereas the corresponding spread for central office repairmen was only 9 percent. 4 file with the of America. company are Collective bargaining agreements covering roughly seven-tenths of the workers included in the study are on Bureau of Labor Statistics. The major labor organization in the industry is the Communications Workers Frequently, workers in different departments (e. g . , traffic, plant, accounting, commercial) of the same covered under separate collective bargaining agreements. 4 Occupational pay relationships varied among regions. To illustrate, nonsupervisory clerical employees averaged from Z to 8 percent more than ex perienced switchboard operators in all regions except the Southeast where the p a y advantage was 14 percent. Average pay rates for PBX and station installers exceeded the average for experienced switchboard operators by 50 to 60 percent in 7 of 9 regions, by 73 percent in the North Central, and by 38 percent in the Pacific region. Bell System companies accounted for 96 percent of the class A telephone carrier employees within scope of the study— virtually all of the employees in the New England, Middle Atlantic, North Central, and Mountain regions, and about 95 percent of those in all remaining regions. Employees of these companies, as a group, averaged $ 2 .9 9 an hour, compared with $ 2 .3 0 for employees of other companies. Bell System companies usually covered an entire State or group of States and had employment amounting to more than 50, 000 in four companies, over 25, 000 in five others, and less than 3, 000 in only two companies. Only 1 of the 33 non-Bell companies employed as many as 3, 000 workers, and 12 com panies had fewer than 100 workers. Slightly more than half of the employment in Bell System companies was concentrated in the Middle Atlantic, Great Lakes, and Pacific regions. Four regions— Great Lakes, Southeast, South Central, and Pacific— accounted for seven-tenths of the employment in non-Bell companies. Pay levels for nearly all occupational categories studied separately were higher for Bell than for non-Bell System s. Among seven major occupational categories shown below, average hourly pay rates in non-Bell carriers ranged from 76 percent to 89 percent of counterpart averages in Bell Systems.

Comparisons based on average weekly rates thus indicate a sm aller difference in pay levels. Among the five craft categories, scheduled workweeks were about the same in both employee groups. Trends in Employment and Pay R ates. Total employment of class A telephone carriers increased by 19, 424 (3. 2 percent) between December 1963 and December 1964. Bell System carriers accounted for more than nine-tenths of this increase, the second (following an increase during the 1962— 63 period) since 1957. While the current employment increase is reflected in nearly all major occupational categories (ranging from about 2 to 5 percent), the employment 5 decrease from the 1957 peak (681,600) to 1962 (596,300) reflected largely a de cline in the number of telephone operators, caused chiefly by the installation of new and improved equipment. 5 The 1964 employment level was 13 percent higher than the level recorded in 1947 (552, 700), the date of the Bureau’ s initial study. During this period, the relative importance of men in the industry has increased from about a third of the labor force in 1947 to slightly more than two-fifths in 1964. The level of wages in the telephone industry increased by 2. 8 percent during the December 1961— December 1964 period from $ 2 .8 8 to $ 2 .9 6 an hour. Interregional differences in pay levels in December 1964 are compared in the following tabulation with those in October 1951 and October 1 9 57.6 The lowest pay level was recorded in the Southeast for each of the three periods. The Middle Atlantic region, tied for second position in 1951, had the highest a ll employee average in 1957 and in 1964.

Western Union Telegraph Company Nonmessenger em ployees7 of Western Union’ s wire-telegraph operations averaged $ 2 . 8 0 an hour (exclusive of premium pay for overtime and work on weekends, holidays, and late shifts) in October 1964; straight-time rates of pay for m essengers averaged $ 1 . 5 8 an hour (table 5). Since October 1963, the date of the last study, average wages of nonmessenger employees had increased 9 cents an hour and those of m essengers, 5 cents. These increases were largely the result of general wage increases, effective June 1, 19 6 4 .8 5 Occupational employments (or pay rates) for the current, as well as the 1963 study, are not precisely co m parable with preceding years due, in part, to the adoption by Bell System companies in 1963 of a new and more re fined system of occupational classification. The revised system provides an increased number of occupational classi fications and resulted in some reclassification of workers, usually within major occupational groups, but in some instances, from one major group to another. 8 Regional pay levels were tabulated for the first time in October 1951. 7 Excludes 299 officials and managerial assistants. 8 Under the terms of agreements reached in 1964 with The Com m ercial Telegraphers' Union and with the American Communications Association (Ind.), all hourly rated workers (except nonmotor messengers) received an in crease of 6 cents an hour; all monthly rated employees, $9 a month; and nonmotor messengers with a year or more of progression credit, 5 cents an hour. The 1964 agreements also provide for the following increases, effective June 1, 1965: A ll hourly rated workers (except nonmotor messengers) receive an increase of 7 cents an hour; all monthly rated employees, $11 a month; and nonmotor messengers with 2 years or more of progression credit, 5 cents an hour. These latter increases, of course, are not reflected in the rate data in this report. 6 Men, comprising 57 percent of the 22,262 nonmessenger employees, tended to be concentrated in different occupational groups than women. Among the job categories in which men were predominant, average straight-time hourly rates of pay were: $ 3 . 2 0 for traffic testing and regulating employees and for subscribers1 equipment maintainers; and $2. 88 for linemen and cablemen. Aver age straight-time hourly rates of pay in October 1964 for numerically important occupational categories predominantly held by women were: $2. 51 for nonsupervisory clerical employees, $2.35 for experienced telegraph operators (except Morse operators) in the traffic department and $2. 22 for those in the commercial department, and $ 2 . 3 3 for telephone operators. Rates of pay of individual workers varied greatly in many of the specific job categories for which data are presented in table 5. In many of the nonmessenger jobs, the hourly rates of the highest paid workers exceeded those of the lowest paid by more than $ 1 an hour. In some jobs, however, individual rates were closely grouped; for example, at least seven-tenths of the traffic department clerical employees and experienced telegraph o p e r a t o r s (except Morse) and telephone operators had hourly rates between $2. 30 and $2. 50. Wage rates for employees of Western Union are determined by labormanagement agreements with The Commercial Telegraphers1 Union in all cities except the New York metropolitan area where contracts are with the American Communications Association (Ind). Wage provisions contained in agreements with both the CTU and ACA include established rate ranges for all occupations; differences between the starting and maximum rates amounted to more than 60 cents an hour for some classifications. Advancement from the starting rate through the various progression steps to the maximum rate is automatic for employees meeting the requirements of the job after specified periods of service. Established rates of pay for nonmessenger jobs and motor messengers varied by location, whereas nationwide rates applied to foot and bicycle messengers. The 4, 046 messengers, nearly all men, comprised 15 percent of the company’ s wire-telegraph work force in October 1964. Seven-tenths of these workers were employed on a full-time basis and averaged $ 1 . 6 4 an hour, com pared with $1. 28 an hour for the 1,150 part-time employees who worked an average of about I 7V2 hours a week at the time of the study. Foot and bicycle messengers (both full- and part-time employees) as a group averaged $1. 27 an hour; those with less than 1 year of service with the company received $ 1. 25 an hour, while those with longer service were paid $1. 30. Motor messengers averaged $2. 06 an hour in October 1964. Rates of pay for nearly half of these workers were between $2. 10 and $2. 30 an hour. Total employment of Western Union’ s wire-telegraph operations in Octo ber 1964 was 5 percent below October 196 3 and only one-half of the employment level of October 1947, the date of the Bureau’ s initial study. As indicated in the tabulation on the following page, not only has the level of employment steadily declined but the occupational composition of the work force has changed consider ably during the 17-year period. The proportion of workers classified as telegraph operators declined from 34 percent in 1947 to 24 percent in 1964, and the pro portion of workers classified as foot and bicycle messengers declined from 18 to 10 percent. On the other hand, the proportions of construction, installation, and maintenance workers, and clerical employees have increased during this period. 7 Wire-telegraph operations October 1964 Total, all em ployees:1 Number -----------------------------------------Percent -----------------------------------------Percent of employees classified as: Telegraph office superintendents and m an agers------------------------------Clerical em ployees-------------------------Telegraph op era tors-----------------------Construction, installation, and maintenance e m p lo y e e s --------------Messengers, foot and b i c y c l e ---------Messengers, m o t o r -------------------------O ther----------------------------------------------- October 1963 October 1955 October 1947 26,308 100 27,706 100 37,471 100 53,107 100 10 22 24 10 22 25 9 19 31 8 19 34 22 10 5 7 20 11 5 7 14 16 4 7 13 18 3 5 1 Excludes officials and managerial assistants. International Telegraph C arriers Rates of pay for the 5, 045 em ployees9 of international telegraph carriers (five ocean-cable and radiotelegraph carriers) averaged $ 3 . 4 1 an hour in October 1964 (table 6). This was an increase of 5. 9 percent above the average recorded in October 1963 ( $3. 22) . The hourly average for the 4, 565 nonmessenger e m ployees was $ 3 . 5 7 ; the 480 m essengers, nearly all foot and bicycle, averaged $1.45. Men, accounting for nearly seven-eighths of the total work force, were predominant in nearly all of the occupational categories. Average hourly rates of pay for numerically important occupational categories were: $ 3 . 7 4 for radio operating technicians, $ 3 . 7 0 for mechanics and maintenance technicians, $ 3 . 0 3 for teletype-multiplex operators, $ 2 . 9 4 for nonsupervisory clerical w orkers, and $ 1 . 4 4 for foot and bicycle m essengers. Reflecting a wide diversity of occupational duties and responsibilities, rates of pay for international telegraph carrier employees were widely dispersed. Nearly a tenth of the workers (mostly foot and bicycle m essengers) had rates of less than $ 1 . 7 0 an hour and approximately one-third of the workers had rates of $ 3 . 7 0 or m ore. 9 The study, covering only ocea n -ca b le and radiotelegraph carriers with annual operating revenues in excess of $50,000, excludes 66 officials and managerial assistants and 2,501 employees working outside the conterminous 48 States and the District of Columbia. 8 S ta rtin g n a tio n a l te le g r a p h w ere p ro v id ed o v e ra ll sin ce w ith th e ca rrie r s e p a r a te ly e m p lo y m e n t and 1963 survey, data in p r e v i o u s average of pay October October October October October 1960 1961 1962 1963 1964 Number of employees ------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------- A lth o u g h in to one hand, co m b in e d The fo r for ra d io te le g ra p h fo llo w in g th e tw o in ter c a r r i e r s — w h ich ta b u la tio n p resen ts te le g ra p h c a rrie rs in tern a tio n a l I960.
