Occupational descriptions ..........................................................................................................................................62 VI Contract Cleaning Services, July 1974 Nearly two-thirds of the cleaners generally performed light tasks, such as sweeping floors, dusting furniture, and emptying waste baskets; the remainder performed heavy tasks, including operating heavy motor-driven cleaning equipment, wet-mopping floors, and washing walls and glass partitions. Seven-eighths of the cleaners worked at night. In a number of areas, significant proportions worked less than 20 hours per week. There were indications that many of the employees were supplementing other incomes, though specific information of this type was outside the scope of the survey. Men constituted nearly two-thirds of the 143,500 workers in the survey. Forty-three percent of the men performed heavy cleaning tasks and 32 percent had light cleaning duties; most of the remainder were employed as exterminators, floor waxers, and window washers. In the 24 areas combined, 92 percent of the women performed light cleaning tasks. Summary Straight-time hourly earnings of service workers in contract cleaning establishments averaged from $2.22 in Dallas-Fort Worth to $4.23 in San Francisco-Oakland, among the 24 areas surveyed in July 1974.1 Earnings differences among areas resulted from a number of factors, including variations in the extent of unionization and differences in types of services rendered. At the time of the survey, average weekly earnings ranged from $48 in Dallas-Fort Worth to $145.50 in San Francisco-Oakland. Area pay relationships based on weekly earnings were somewhat different from those based on hourly earnings because of variations in weekly hours of work. Shorter workweeks in the industry, reflecting its part-time nature, dampened weekly earnings gains between July 1971, the date of a similar study,2 and July 1974. Among the occupations studied separately in July 1974, window washers generally were highest paid, with hourly averages ranging from $2.72 to $5.64.3 Four-fifths of the industry’s work force were cleaners. Paid holidays and paid vacations were provided for a majority of the workers in about four-fifths of the 24 areas. At least part of the cost of life, hospitalization, surgical, or basic medical insurance was provided to half of the workers or more in 11 areas. Retirement pension plans were available for three-fifths of the service workers or more in 10 areas, and for about one-third or less in the other 14 areas studied. E m p lo ym en t trends. The contract cleaning industries have provided growing job opportunities throughout the past decade. Nationally, employment more than doubled from March 1964 to March 1973, rising from 154,878 to 351,520.4 Slightly less than one-half of the employment in these industries is accounted for in the 24-area survey summarized in this report. (Firms having fewer than eight workers were excluded from the survey.) Largely because of changes in metropolitan area defini tions, only nine areas were fully comparable for the 1971 and 1974 surveys. Aggregate employment of service work ers for these nine areas increased by about 21 percent from 1971 to 1974 compared with 16 percent between 1968 and 1971 and 41 percent between 1965 and 1968.5 The rate of employment growth within most of the nine areas exhibi ted wide swings between surveys. (See text table 1.) Among the 24 areas surveyed in July 1974, service worker employment ranged from about 2,000 in Kansas City, Memphis, Nassau-Suffolk, New Orleans, and SeattleEverett to 35,400 in New York. After New York, the three largest contract cleaning centers studied were Los AngelesLong Beach (11,641), Chicago (8,865), and Washington (8,697). (See appendix table A-l.) Industry characteristics Occupational staffing. Cleaners constituted slightly more than four-fifths of the industry’s work force in July 1974—117,800 out of 143,500 service workers covered by the study. Floor waxers, window washers, and extermina tors each accounted for 5 percent or less of the work force; other jobs not studied separately made up 8 percent. * S e e a p p e n d ix A fo r s c o p e and m e th o d o f su rv ey .

Those chiefly furnishing window-washing services employed 5 percent or fewer of the workers in each area. The proportion of workers employed by contractors primarily providing disinfecting and exterminating services was one-fifth in Miami, oneseventh in Nassau-Suffolk, one-tenth in Philadelphia, and less than one-tenth in the other areas. Establishments engaged primarily in janitorial services generally provided other specialized work, including window washing and floor waxing. Disinfecting and exterminating firms and window cleaning establishments, however, usually were limited to one type of service. A number of establishments in the 24 areas provided secondary services beyond the scope of the wage survey. These included security service, skilled maintenance of buildings, food service, trash removal, and grounds-keeping. T ext table 1.

Private firms or individuals were the principal source of revenue for cleaning contractors em ploying at least seven-eighths of the workers in each area. In Washington, D.C., government agencies were the main source of revenue for cleaning contractors employing 7 percent of the workers and a secondary source for those employing 55 percent. In about half the areas surveyed, a majority of the workers were employed by cleaning contractors deriving at least some of their revenue from government agencies. Only a few cleaning contractors, however, derived their revenue entirely from government agencies.

Nearly four-fifths of the establish ments within the scope of the 1974 study employed fewer than 50 workers. In some of the areas, however, a few establishments employed more than 1,000 workers. Those having at least 100 workers accounted for about 13 percent of all firms covered by the study, but employed a majority of the workers in all areas except Denver-Boulder and Seattle-Everett. (See table 1.) T yp e o f service. Cleaning contractors may provide a single service, such as cleaning windows, disinfecting buildings or exterminating insects, etc., or they may provide total maintenance of a facility by supplying workers such as guards, gardeners, parking lot attendants, and refuse collec tors, in addition to the cleaning personnel. In recent years, cleaning contractors, especially the larger firms, have increasingly been providing total maintenance. In some cases, these firms have multimillion-dollar operations and maintain installations in a number of cities.6 However, most contract cleaning establishments covered by this survey were local firms employing fewer than 50 workers. Establishments engaged primarily in providing janitorial service accounted for at least three-fourths of the service 6 S ervice In th eir 1 9 7 4 In d u stry M a n a g em en t S u rv ey (p . 3 ) , th e B u ild in g C o n tr a c to r s A s s o c ia tio n In te r n a tio n a l re p o r te d th a t a m a jo rity o f m em b er c o n tr a c to r s rep ly in g p r o v id e d t o ta l m a in te n a n c e se rv ices, d e fin e d as a n y a n d a ll serv ices in v o lv e d in th e cle a n in g a n d m a in te n a n c e o f b u ild in g s a n d th e ir su rro u n d in g s. 2 T ype o f structure serviced. Contractors primarily engaged in servicing office buildings accounted for three-fourths of the workers or more in the 21 areas studied. In the other three areas, the proportion of workers was about two-fifths in Nassau-Suffolk, half in Philadelphia, and nearly threefifths in Miami. Those firms primarily servicing industrial plants or factories employed between 10 and 15 percent of the workers in Baltimore, Chicago, Kansas City, NassauSuffolk, and Philadelphia, and less than 10 percent in the other areas. Contractors primarily servicing institutions, such as schools, hospitals, and nursing homes, employed 21 percent of the workers in Philadelphia, 12 percent each in Baltimore and Cleveland, and 7 percent or less in the others. Those servicing supermarkets and other stores accounted for 15 percent of the service workers in Nassau-Suffolk, 11 percent in Miami, 7 percent in San Francisco, and 5 percent or less in the other 21 areas. About two-thirds of the service workers were in estab lishments that rendered their services to two types of structures or more. Between the 1971 and 1974 surveys, the average workweek declined in seven areas, and remained the same in Chicago and New Orleans among the nine comparable areas. (See text table 2.) Declines typically ranged from 2 to 5 percent. T e x t ta b le 2 . and worked 35 hours or more, usually 40 to 45 hours. Men worked more hours than women in 20 areas, the same hours in one area (Kansas City), and fewer hours in Baltimore, Chicago, and Cleveland. (See tables 7 and 8.) In each area, a larger proportion of men than women worked at least 40 hours per week.

Within regional groupings, the reported spread in area averages was $2.60 to $4.03 in the Northeast; $2.22 to $2.66 in the South; $2.54 to $3.46 in the North Central; and $2.65 to $4.23 in the West. Hourly earnings levels increased between 16.5 and 24.5 percent among the nine areas permitting comparison between the 1971 and 1974 surveys. (See text table 2.) In all areas, weekly earnings levels rose more slowly than hourly earnings because of widespread declines in hours worked. For example, hourly earnings in Miami rose 22 percent between 1971 and 1974, while weekly earnings increased 14.7 percent, and average weekly hours fell by 5.1 percent (text table 2). Because of variations in weekly hours of work, area pay relationships based on weekly earnings were somewhat different from those based on hourly earnings. For exam ple, workers in Los Angeles-Long Beach averaged 15 percent an hour less than those in Seattle-Everett, but because of their longer workweek (32 hours compared with 23), they averaged 17 percent more per week. Also, average hourly earnings were nearly the same in Newark ($2.94) and Kansas City ($2.98), but weekly earnings averaged $86 and $68, respectively. (See table 2.) Average weekly earnings ranged from $48 in Dallas-Ft. Worth to $145.50 in San Francisco-Oakland. Largely reflecting the part-time nature of jobs in the industry, weekly earnings averaged $75 or less in 14 of the 24 areas studied; they exceeded $125 in New York and San Francisco-Oakland, where the longest average workweeks and highest average hourly earnings were recorded. Typically, hourly earnings were concentrated in a narrow range within areas, largely reflecting the numerical importance of cleaners and the pay they commonly received (table 3). For example, approximately three-fifths of the workers in Atlanta, Baltimore, and Houston and seven-tenths in Memphis earned $2 but less than $2.10—$2 was the Federal minimum at that time; nearly one-third in Cleveland earned between $3 and $3.10; and one-third in New York and two-fifths in Seattle-Everett earned $3.80 to $4. In each instance, cleaners accounted for at least nine-tenths of the workers paid these amounts. Men, as a group, typically averaged from 10 percent to 20 percent more per hour than women. The earnings advantage for men ranged from 6 percent in Baltimore and 1 Earnings d a ta e x c lu d e p re m iu m pay fo r o v e rtim e and fo r w o rk on w e eken ds and h o lid ay s b u t in clu d e p re m iu m pay fo r la te -s h ift and hazardous w o r k , if a n y .

Establishments operating under labormanagement agreements employed three-fifths of the ser vice workers in the survey. The proportion of workers in shops with such coverage ranged from less than one-tenth in Atlanta and Houston to nine-tenths or more in New York, San Francisco-Oakland, and Seattle-Everett. (See table 1.) In half the southern areas studied, none of the plants visited had collective bargaining agreements covering a majority of their regular service employees. Nearly all agreements in the industry were executed with the Service Employees’ Inter national Union (AFL-CIO). M ethod o f wage paym ent. At least nine-tenths of the workers in each area (except Miami) were paid on a time-rate basis (table 37). Time workers usually were paid under formal plans setting single rates for specific occupa tions in nearly two-thirds of the areas. Rates determined by the individual’s qualifications applied to a majority of the workers in one-third of the areas, typically in the South. Incentive wage payment plans applied to slightly more than one-fifth of the workers in Miami. Weekly hours o f work. Service employees in contract cleaning establishments frequently worked less than 15 hours per week in July 1974 (table 6). On the average, however, they worked 21.5 hours in Dallas, from 22 to nearly 30 hours in three-fourths of the areas, from 30 to 33 hours in one-sixth of the areas, and 34.5 hours in San Francisco-Oakland. In two-thirds of the areas, a majority of the service employees worked fewer than 30 hours a week; in half of the 24 areas, including 6 of the 8 southern areas, a majority worked under 25 hours weekly. In only four areas—Chicago, Los Angeles-Long Beach, New York, and San Francisco-Oakland—a majority of the employees 3 these occupations accounted for virtually all service work ers studied. Among the occupational classifications surveyed in contract cleaning establishments, window washers generally were highest paid (text table 3). They had hourly averages ranging from $2.72 in Dallas-Fort Worth to $5.64 in San Francisco-Oakland. Window washers averaged more than $5 an hour in 8 of the 18 areas for which their earnings were published. In a number of areas, extra pay was provided for hazardous work, such as using scaffolds, high ladders, and bosun chairs. Such payments were included in window washers’ earnings for purposes of the survey. Floor waxers (men) typically averaged between $2.50 and $3.50 an hour, ranging from $2.17 in Atlanta and $2.18 in New Orleans to $4.38 in San Francisco-Oakland. Among the 11 areas where averages for exterminators (men) could be shown, averages were between $3.40 and $3.65 in six areas, and between $3.86 and $4.86 in the others. Average hourly earnings for women performing light cleaning tasks, numerically the most important job studied separately, ranged from $2.07 in New Orleans to $3.82 in San Francisco-Oakland. Women light cleaners averaged $2.20 an hour or less in one-third of the areas (primarily in Dallas to slightly more than 30 percent in Pittsburgh. Differences in average pay levels for men and women may be the result of several factors, including variation in the distribution of the sexes among establishments and among jobs with disparate pay levels. For example, window washers, usually the highest paid occupation, were virtually all men, as were nine-tenths of the heavy cleaners; women, however, made up three-fifths of the light cleaners, one of the lowest paid occupations studied. Also, differences reported for men and women in the same job and area may reflect minor differences in duties. Job descriptions used to classify workers in wage surveys are more generalized than those used in individual establishments to allow for possible minor differences among establishments in specific duties performed.

Among the 22 areas where separate data for men and women light cleaners were shown, women averaged more than men in 5 areas, less than men in 7, and within 1 percent of men in 10. The typical earnings advantage for women was small—2 or 3 percent—but ranged to 13 or 14 percent in Baltimore and New York. In areas where men light cleaners enjoyed an earnings advantage, the spread was also relatively small—commonly 4 to 5 per cent-widening to 9 or 10 percent in Miami and Washing ton. Slightly more than nine-tenths of the workers perform ing heavy cleaning tasks were men. Average earnings for these men ranged from $2.19 in Houston to $4.02 in New York and San Francisco-0akland. Women employed as heavy cleaners averaged from $2.24 an hour in Dallas-Fort Worth to $4.02 in San Francisco-0akland. As was the case with light cleaners, men and women each enjoyed the earnings advantage in about half the areas in which averages for both groups shown were different. They averaged the same in 2 areas. But, where average earnings varied by sex for heavy cleaners, the spread was commonly wider than for light cleaners—4 to 16 percent in most cases shown. Average earnings of men cleaners in contract cleaning service establishments were compared with janitors (men) in the Bureau’s area wage surveys.7 Text table 4 presents hourly average pay relatives for cleaners using the more broadly based area wage survey average for janitors in each area as 100. It shows that cleaners typically averaged between about 10 and 20 percent an hour less than janitors in all industries covered by the area wage studies. When comparisons were limited to nonmanufacturing industries, however, cleaners typically averaged between 6 and 10 percent less than janitors; and in Houston and Memphis, they averaged, respectively, 2 percent and 15 percent more. Earnings of individual workers varied within the same job and area (tables 10-33). The extent of the dispersion, however, differed among the areas and for different jobs within the same area. For example, earnings of the highest paid men heavy cleaners in New York exceeded those of the lowest paid by about $3 an hour; while in Dallas-Ft. Worth, all such workers earned between $2 and $2.80. (See tables 27 and 15.) In contrast to the broad range for heavy cleaners, about seven-eighths of the window washers (men) in New York had average hourly earnings between $5 and T e x t ta b le 4 . p e r c e n t o f a v e r a g e s f o r m e n j a n i t o r s in B L S a r e a w a g e s u rv e y s , 1 9 a re a s ,1 J u ly 1974 (A verages in area w age surveys = 1 0 0 ) Pay relative Area A ll industries Northeast: B o sto n ................................................

Information on wage practices and benefits applies to a majority of regularly employed service workers in each establishment, whether full time or part time. All plans, except those legally required, were included when at least part of the cost was paid by the employer. No attempt was made, however, to evaluate the cost of benefits provided by any plan. $ 6 .2 0 . Late-shift work. Although a majority of the cleaners in each area studied worked at night, only in two areas—SeattleEverett and Los Angeles-Long Beach—did formal provisions for shift premium pay usually apply to regular service workers. Contractors in Los Angeles reporting shift differ entials paid 15 cents an hour above day-shift rates for employees working more than half of their hours after midnight. Contractors in Seattle who reported shift differ entials paid 15 cents an hour above day-shift rates for all hours between midnight and 8 a.m. Among the other areas studied, shift differentials were rarely found in the indus try. 7The Bureau’s area wage survey program covers establishments in the following broad industry divisions: Manufacturing; transpor tation, communication, and other public utilities; wholesale trade; retail trade; finance, insurance, and real estate; and selected services. Area wage surveys were conducted throughout the country in 1974. Data from these surveys were adjusted to reflect the July 1974 payroll reference period used in the contract cleaning survey. To the extent that contract cleaning firms are also covered by the area wage survey data, these lower paying firms reduce the men janitors’ average and contribute to a smaller cleaner-to-janitor wage differen tial than would be reported if their data could be excluded from the cross-industry survey.

Paid holidays, usually 6 to 8 per year, were provided to three-fifths of the service workers or more in all areas except Atlanta, Memphis, and Minneapolis-St. Paul (table 38). In San Francisco-0akland, three fourths of the workers received 9 days annually; and in Nassau-Suffolk and New York, about three-fifths of the workers were in establishments providing at least 10 days. financed solely by the employer, accounted for a majority of service workers in 13 of the 24 areas studied. (See table 40.) Benefits most frequently available were life, hospitali zation, surgical, and basic medical insurance, but the proportions of workers covered by these and other plans varied somewhat by location. Sickness and accident insurance or paid sick leave, or both, also applied to a majority of the workers in 10 areas. Major medical insurance was available for at least two-thirds of the service workers in six areas, but was available to one-fifth or less in the other areas. Retirement pension plans, other than social security, were available to at least three-fifths of the workers in 10 areas, and nearly always were financed entirely by the employers; one-third or less were covered by such plans in the other 14 areas. Retirement severance pay plans were rare in the industry. Paid vacations. Paid vacations, after qualifying periods of service, were provided by cleaning contractors employing a majority of service workers in all areas except Atlanta, Dallas-Ft. Worth, Memphis, Minneapolis-St. Paul, and New Orleans (table 39). In the 19 areas where a majority of workers were under paid vacation plans, typical provisions were for 1 week’s pay after 1 year of service (2 weeks’ pay in the Los Angeles, San Francisco, and Seattle areas), and 2 weeks’ pay after 2 or 3 years. In five areas, a majority of the workers were in establishments having provisions for 3 weeks of vacation pay after 5 years of service; in six other areas, similar provisions usually applied after 10 years of service (4 weeks was typical in Nassau-Suffolk). Provisions for 4 weeks after 15 years’ service covered at least three-fifths of the workers in four other areas and after 20 years in Philadelphia. Other selected benefits. Pay for leave to attend funerals of certain family members was available to about two-thirds of the workers or more in seven areas, to approximately one-half in four areas, and to about one-third or less in the other areas. (See table 41.) Jury-duty pay was provided to a majority of the workers in only five areas—Boston, Cleveland, Los Angeles, San Francisco-0akland, and Seattle-Everett. It was provided to slightly over two-fifths in Nassau-Suffolk and Newark, and to about one-third or less in the other areas. Health, insurance, and retirement plans.

Average hourly earnings were obtained by dividing aggregate weekly earnings by aggregate weekly hours. Workers, however, were distributed among the specified earnings classes according to their individual hourly rates. These surveys, based on a representative sample of establishments, are designed to measure the level of occupa tional earnings at a particular time. Thus, comparisons made with previous studies may not reflect _ _ _ _ - . _ - - - _ _ - . wage movements because of changes in the universe over time and associated necessary change in the sample composition and shifts in employment among establishments with different pay levels. Such shifts, for example, could decrease an occupational average, even though most establishments in creased wages between the periods being compared. 5 Regularly employed full-time and part-time nonsupervisory workers engaged in performing nonoffice functions. Casual workers, those hired on a job basis, are excluded. 4 Includes data for workers in classification in addition to those shown separately. Table 30.

Scope and Method of Survey Scope of survey Service workers The survey included establishments engaged primarily in cleaning windows in business houses and dwellings (SIC 7341) ; establishments engaged primarily in disinfecting buildings and in exterminating insects, rodents, etc. (SIC 7342) , and establishments engaged primarily in furnishing to dwellings and other buildings specialized services, such as janitorial service, floor waxing, and office cleaning (SIC 7349). These three industries represent the entire Industry Group No. 734, as defined in the 1967 edition of the Standard Industrial Classification Manual, prepared by the U.S. Office o f Management and Budget. Establishments studied were selected from those em ploying eight workers or more at the time of reference of the data used in compiling the universe lists. Table A-l shows the number of establishments and workers estimated to be within the scope of the survey, as well as the number actually studied by the Bureau. The term “service worker,” as used in this report, includes working supervisors and all regularly employed full- and part-time nonsupervisory workers engaged in performing nonoffice activities. Administrative, executive, professional, and technical personnel, and force-account construction employees, who are used as a separate work force on the firm’s own properties, are excluded. Casual workers, those hired on a job basis, also were excluded. Method of study Data were obtained by personal visits of the Bureau’s field staff to a representative sample of establishments within the scope of the survey. To obtain appropriate accuracy at a minimum cost, a greater proportion of large than of small establishments was studied. In combining the data, however, all establishments were given an appropriate weight. All estimates are presented, therefore, as relating to all establishments in the industry, excluding only those below the minimum size at the time of reference of the universe data. Occupational classification was based on a uniform set of job descriptions designed to take account of interestab lishment and interarea variations in duties within the same job. (See appendix B for these descriptions.) The criteria for selection of the occupations were: The number of workers in the occupation; the usefulness of the data in collective bargaining; and appropriate representation of the entire job scale in the industry. The selected occupations included full- and part-time workers (i.e., those scheduled to work regularly in the establishment); casual workers, working supervisors, apprentices, learners, beginners, trainees, and handicapped, temporary, and probationary workers were not reported in the data for selected occupations but, except for casual workers, were included in the data for all service workers. Wage data Information on wages relates to straight-time hourly earnings, excluding premium pay for overtime and for work on weekends and holidays. Premium pay for late-shift work and for hazardous work was included in straight-time earnings for workers receiving such payments. This proce dure was followed to achieve comparable data between establishments which have separate formal provisions for late-shift work and-or formal provisions for hazardous work and those which have built the differentials into the rate. Incentive payments, such as those resulting from piecework or production bonus systems, and cost-of-living bonuses were included as part of the workers’ regular pay. Nonpro duction bonus payments, such as Christmas or yearend bonuses, were excluded. Group average hourly earnings were obtained by dividing Establishment definition For this study, an establishment is defined as a single physical location which provides services to dwellings and other buildings on a fee or contract basis. An establishment is not necessarily identical with a business concern or company, which may consist of one establishment or more. Employment Estimates of the number of workers within the scope of the study are intended as a general guide to the size and composition of the industry’s labor force, rather than as precise measures of employment.

(Learners, apprentices, or probationary workers may be paid according to rate schedules which start below the single rate and permit the workers to achieve the full job rate over a period of time.) An experienced worker occasionally may be paid above or below the single rate for aggregate weekly earnings by aggregate weekly hours.1 Average weekly earnings were obtained by dividing the sum of the aggregate weekly earnings by the total number of workers. For salaried workers, “normal” hours were used rather than actual hours. Weekly earnings were rounded to the nearest half dollar. Method of wage payment This method o f computing average hourly earnings differs from the usual practice in which average hourly earnings were calculated by summing individual hourly earnings and dividing by the number of individuals. This change in procedure was made because o f the wide variations in individual weekly hours worked in the contract cleaning services industry; such variations often are related to wide differences in hourly earnings. In the earnings distribution tables, however, workers were distributed among specified earnings classes according to their individual hourly rates. Tabulations by method of wage payment relate to the number of workers paid under the various time and incentive wage systems. Formal rate structures for time rated workers provide single rates or a range of rates for individual job categories. In the absence of a formal rate structure, pay rates are determined primarily by the qualifications of the individual worker. A single rate 60 and those paid directly by the employer from his current operating funds or from a fund set aside for this purpose. Death benefits are included as a form of life insurance. Sickness and accident insurance is limited to that type of insurance under which predetermined cash payments are made directly to the insured on a weekly or monthly basis during illness or accident disability. Information is pre sented for all such plans to which the employer contributes at least a part of the cost. However, in New York and New Jersey, where temporary disability insurance laws require employer contributions,2 plans are included only if the employer (1) contributes more than is legally required, or (2) provides the employees with benefits which exceed the requirements of the law. Tabulations of paid sick leave plans are limited to formal plans which provide full pay or a proportion of the worker’s pay during absence from work because of illness; informal arrangements have been omitted. Separate tabula tions are provided for (1) plans which provide full pay and no waiting period, and (2) plans providing either partial pay or a waiting period. Medical insurance refers to plans providing for complete or partial payment of doctors’ fees. Such plans may be underwritten by a commercial insurance company or a nonprofit organization, or they may be a form of self-insur ance. Major medical insurance, sometimes referred to as extended medical or catastrophe insurance, includes plans designed to cover employees for sickness or injury involving an expense which exceeds the normal coverage of hospitali zation, medical, and surgical plans. Tabulations of retirement pensions are limited to plans which provide regular payments for the remainder of the retiree’s life. Data are presented separately for retirement severance pay (one payment or several over a specified period of time) made to employees on retirement. Estab lishments providing both retirement severance payments and retirement pensions to employees were considered as having both retirement pensions and retirement severance plans; however, establishments having optional plans pro viding employees a choice of either retirement severance payments or pensions were considered as having only retirement pension benefits. special reasons, but such payments are exceptions. Rangeof-rate plans are those in which the minimum, maximum, or both of these rates paid experienced workers for the same job are specified. Specific rates of individual workers within the range may be determined by merit, length of service, or combination of these. Incentive workers are classified under piecework or bonus plans. Piecework is work for which a predetermined rate is paid for each unit of output. Production bonuses are for production in excess of a quota or for completion of a task in less than standard time. Weekly hours of work Data relate to the weekly hours actually worked by each worker during the payroll period studied. Average weekly hours worked were rounded to the nearest half-hour. Supplementary benefits Supplementary benefits in an establishment were consid ered applicable to all full- and part-time service workers if they applied to half of such workers or more in the establishment. Similarly, if fewer than half of the workers were covered, the benefit was considered nonexistent in the establishment. Because of length-of-service and other eligi bility requirements, the proportion of workers receiving the benefits may be smaller than estimated. Paid holidays. Paid holiday provisions relate to full-day and half-day holidays provided annually. Paid vacations. The summaries of vacation plans are limited to formal arrangements and exclude informal plans where by time off with pay is granted at the discretion of the employer or supervisor. Payments not on a time basis were converted; for example, a payment of 2 percent of annual earnings was considered the equivalent of 1 week’s pay. The periods of service for which data are presented represent the most common practices, but they do not necessarily reflect individual establishment provisions for progression. For example, changes in proportions indicated at 10 years of service may include changes which occurred between 5 and 10 years. Paid funeral and ju ry-d u ty leave. Data for paid funeral and jury-duty leave relate to formal plans which provide at least partial payment for time lost as a result of attending funerals of specified family members or serving as a juror. Health, insurance , and retirem ent plans. Data are presented for health, insurance, pension, and retirement severance plans for which the employer pays all or a part of the cost, excluding programs required by law such as worker’s compensation and social security. Among plans included are those underwritten by a commercial insurance company 2 The temporary disability insurance laws in California and Rhode Island do not require employer contributions. 61 Appendix B. Occupational Descriptions The primary purpose of preparing job descriptions for the Bureau’s wage surveys is to assist its field staff in classifying into appropriate occupations workers who are employed under a variety of payroll titles and different work arrangements from establishment to establishment and from area to area. This permits the grouping of occupational wage rates representing comparable job content. Because of this emphasis on interestablishment and interarea comparability of occupational content, the Bureau’s job descriptions may differ significantly from those in use in individual establishments or those prepared for other purposes. In applying these job descriptions, the Bureau’s field staff are instructed to exclude working supervisors, apprentices, learners, beginners; trainees, and handicapped, temporary, and probationary workers. Regularly employed part-time workers were included in the selected occupations. Exterminator Cleaner, heavy Kills, by application of chemicals, vermin such as roaches, beetles, moths, ants, bedbugs, rats, and mice which infest dwellings and other buildings. Work involves the following: Spraying chemical solutions throughout rooms and into hiding places with a spray gun to kill insects; dusting sodium fluoride and other poisonous chemical powders into hiding places of roaches; and setting out poisonous paste or bait in boxes or other containers near places where vermin are present. May remove mattresses, upholstered furniture, and clothing from building and fumigate them in a vault at the business establishment to destroy insects. Excludes workers who specialize in the destruction of insects and rodents through the use of lethal fumigants, and those primarily engaged in termite control. (Janitor, porter, utility laborer) Performs heavy cleaning duties in dwellings and other buildings, including any or a com bination o f the following: Operating heavy motor-driven cleaning equipment (other than light vacuum sweepers and floor waxers); wet-mopping floors; washing walls and glass partitions; polishing marble or brass; moving heavy furniture; hosing sidewalks and shoveling snow; and removing heavy rubbish. Include in this classification workers who perform combination duties of cleaning and providing m inor maintenance services such as changing light bulbs, repairing Venetian blinds, and install ing and-or removing electric fans. Exclude workers who specialize in window washing (window washers), workers waxing floors (waxers, floor), and those who are addition ally responsible for the operation of heating, air-condition ing, or other mechanical equipment. Waxer, floor Cleaner, light Cleans, waxes, and polishes floors by hand or machine. Work involves: Removing dirt and blemishes from floor, using various cleaning solvents and compounds according to the composition of floor; applying paste or liquid wax to floor with rags or machine; and polishing floor with electric polishing machine or weighted brush. (Janitor, porter, sweeper, charman, or charwoman) Performs light cleaning duties in dwellings and other buildings, usually limited to such tasks as: Sweeping and dry mopping floors; dusting furniture and equipment; emptying waste baskets; and vacuuming rugs with a home-type vacuum cleaner. E xclude workers performing heavy cleaning tasks described above (cleaners, heavy), workers specializing in window washing (window washers), workers waxing floors (waxers, floor), chambermaids, and those who are responsible for the operation of heating, air-conditioning, or other mechanical equipment. Window washer Cleans windows, inside or outside, in such establish ments as office buildings, stores, apartment houses, private homes, and hotels. 62 Industry Wage Studies The most recent reports providing occupational wage data for industries included in the Bureau’s program of industry wage surveys since 1960 are listed below.
