This was determined by multiplying the average earnings for the occupations shown for both types of mills in table 13 by the respective occupational employments in integrated mills, and dividing the sums of these prod ucts by the total of the employment factors. The wage advantage held by workers in integrated mills amounted to 11 cents for men and 8 cents for women. 6 E s t a b lis h m e n t P r a c t i c e s and S u p p le m e n ta ry Wage P r o v i s i o n s D ata w e r e a l s o obtain ed on c e r t a in e s t a b li s h m e n t p r a c t i c e s , including m in im u m w age r a t e s fo r p rod u ctio n w o r k e r s , and w o rk sc h e d u le s and s e l e c t e d s u p p le m e n ta r y b e n e fits, su ch a s paid h o lid a y s and v a c a t io n s and v a r i o u s health, in s u r a n c e , p en sio n , and s e v e r a n c e pay p l a n s , fo r p ro d u c tio n and offic e w o r k e r s .

May 1963. 47 See forthcoming BLS 48 The three b a sic types of m ills producing cotton tex tile s w ere included— yarn, w eav ing, and in tegrated m ills . Yarn m ills p r o c e ss raw cotton into finished y arn s, p rim a rily for use in weaving and knitting fa b r ic s; weaving m ills pu rch ase yarn and weave it into fa b r ic s; and in tegrated m ills are a combination of the fir s t two ty pes, p ro c e ssin g raw cotton into yarn and then weaving it into cloth. A few cotton textile m ills operate departm ents engaged in bleaching, cloth dyeing and finishing, and fabricatio n (including sh e e ts, p illo w c a se s, blanket binding, cu rtain s, and d r a p e r ie s). W orkers in these departm ents are included in total em ploym ent e stim ates and in the tabulations of supplem entary benefits and estab lish m en t p ra c tic e s (except minimum ra te s). D ata for these w orkers are excluded from tab les 1 through 9 and are provided s e p a rate ly in table 10. Method of Study D ata w ere obtained by p erso n al v isits of B u reau field eco n o m ists, under the d ir e c tion of the B u re a u ’ s A ssista n t R egional D irecto rs for W ages and In du strial R elation s. The su rv ey w as conducted on a sam ple b a s is . To obtain appropriate a ccu racy at minimum co st, a g re a te r proportion of larg e than of sm all estab lish m en ts was studied. In combining the data, how ever, all estab lish m en ts w ere given their appropriate weight. All e stim ate s are p resen ted , th erefo re, as relatin g to all estab lish m en ts in the in d u strie s, excluding only those below the m inimum siz e at the tim e of referen ce of the u n iverse data. E stab lish m en t Definition An estab lish m en t, for p u rp o ses of this study, is defined as a sin gle p h y sical lo c a tion where in d u strial operations are p erform ed . An estab lish m en t is not n e c e s s a r ily iden tic a l with the company, which m ay co n sist of one or m ore estab lish m en ts. Em ploym ent The e stim ate s of the number of w orkers within the scope of the study are intended as a gen e ral guide to the size and com position of the labor force included in the su rvey. The advance planning n e c e ssa r y to make a wage su rvey re q u ire s the use of lis t s of e s t a b lish m ents asse m b le d con sid erably in advance of the p ay ro ll period studied. Production W orkers The term "production w o r k e r s ," as used in this bulletin, includes working forem en and a ll n on su p ervisory w ork ers engaged in nonoffice functions. A dm in istrativ e, executive, p r o fe ssio n a l, and technical p erson n el and fo rce-accou n t construction em ployees, who w ere utilized as a sep arate work fo rce on the fir m fs own p ro p e rtie s, w ere excluded. Office W orkers The term "o ffice w o rk e rs, " as used in this bulletin, includes all n on supervisory office w orkers and excludes ad m in istrativ e, executive, p ro fe ssio n a l, and technical em ployees. Occupations Selected fo r Study The occupational c la ssific a tio n w as b a sed on a uniform se t of job d escriptio n s d e signed to take account of in terestab lish m en t and in te ra re a variatio n s in duties within the sam e job. (See appendix B for these job d e scrip tio n s. ) The occupations w ere chosen for their n um erical im portance, their u sefu ln ess in collective bargain in g, or their re p re se n ta tiven ess of the entire job sc a le in the industry. Working su p e rv is o r s , ap p ren tices, le a r n e r s , begin n ers, tra in e e s, handicapped, p a rt-tim e , tem porary, and probationary w orkers w ere not repo rted in the data for selecte d occupations, but w ere included in the data for all production w o rk ers. Wage Data The wage inform ation re la te s to average straig h t-tim e hourly earn in gs, excluding prem ium pay for overtim e and for w ork on w eekends, h olidays, and late sh ifts. Incentive 49 paym ents, such as those resu ltin g from piecew ork or production bonus sy ste m s and c o st-o fliving b o n u ses, w ere included as p a rt of the w o rk e rs’ re g u lar pay; but nonproduction bonus paym ents, such as C h ristm a s or yearend bon u ses, w ere excluded. The hourly earn in gs of sa la rie d w orkers w ere obtained by dividing straig h t-tim e s a la r y by n orm al rath er than a c tual h ours. 15 Size of Community T abulations by siz e of community pertain to m etropolitan and nonm etropolitan a r e a s . The term ’’m etropolitan a re a , " as used in this bulletin, r e fe r s to the Standard M etropolitan S ta tistic a l A r e a s, as defined by the B u reau of the Budget in 1961. E xcept in New England, a Standard M etropolitan S ta tistic a l A rea is defined as a county or group of contiguous counties which contains at le a st one city of 50, 000 inhabitants or m ore. Contiguous counties to the one containing such a city are included in a Standard M etropolitan S ta tistic a l A rea if, according to certain c r ite ria , they are e sse n tia lly m e tro politan in ch a rac te r and are so c ially and econom ically in tegrated with the cen tral city. In New England, where the city and town are ad m in istrativ ely m ore im portant than the county, they are the units used in defining Standard M etropolitan S ta tistic a l A re a s. C arded and Combed Yarn Sep arate data are p resen ted according to the predom inant type of yarn— carded or combed— spun or woven. C arded yarn s contain a m ixture of long and short fib e rs and are used in the weaving of medium and c o a rse fa b r ic s. Combed yarns are c h a rac te riz ed by the rem oval of the sh o rte r fib e rs and the straightening of fib e rs so as to yield g re a te r un iform ity, strength, and sm ooth n ess. These yarn s are woven into fine goods such as p e rc ale sheetings and org an d ies. C la ss of F a b ric s T abulations by c la s s of fab ric are b a sed on c la ssific a tio n s used by the U. S.

S im ila rly , if few er than half of the w ork e r s w ere covered, the p ra ctice or benefit w as con sidered nonexistent in the estab lish m en t. B e cau se of len g th -o f-se rv ice and other e lig ib ility requ irem en ts, the proportion of w orkers receivin g the benefits m ay be sm a lle r than estim ated . B e cau se of rounding, sum s of in di vidual item s m ay not equal to ta ls. Minimum R a te s . Minimum entrance ra te s presen ted relate to the low est fo rm al ra te s e stab lish e d for inexperienced tim e -ra te d w orkers in unskilled occupations.

D ata r e fe r to the predom inant w ork schedule for full-tim e p rodu c tion w orkers (or office w o rk ers) em ployed on the day shift. Average hourly rates or earnings for each occupation or other groups of workers such as men, women, or production workers were obtained by weighting each rate (or hourly earnings) by the number of workers receiving the rate. ^ For purposes of these tabulations, estimates were based on total production worker employment, including those workers in bleaching, cloth dyeing and finishing, and fabricating operations. (See discussion of minimum rates for exception. ) 50 Shift P ro v isio n s and P r a c tic e s . Data relate to the p ro v isio n s in estab lish m en ts having fo rm al p ro v isio n s for late shift operations and to the p ra c tic e s in those e sta b lish m ents operating e x tra shifts during the p ay ro ll period studied.
