Appendix A: Scope and Method of Survey
Scope of Survey
The survey included privately operated utility companies or systems engaged in the
(1) generation, transmission and/or distribution of electric energy; (2) transmission and/or
storage of natural gas; (3) transmission and distribution of natural gas, and the manufacture
and/or distribution of manufactured or mixed gas; and (4) production and/or distribution of
both electricity and gas (industry groups 491, 492, and 493 as classified in the 1957 edition
of the Standard Industrial Classification Manual, prepared by the U .S . Bureau of the Budget).
Allied services rendered by the systems (such as water, steam heat or power, telephone
services, and transportation) were excluded.
The systems studied were selected from those employing 100 or more workers at
the time of reference of the data used in compiling the universe lists.
The number of systems and workers actually studied by the Bureau, as well as the
number estimated to be in the industry during the payroll period studied, are shown in the
table on the following page.
Method of Study
Data were obtained by personal visits of Bureau field economists under the direction
of the Bureau’ s Assistant Regional Directors for Wages and Industrial Relations. The survey
was conducted on a sample basis. To obtain appropriate accuracy at minimum cost, a greater
proportion of large than of sm all systems was studied. In combining the data, however, all
systems were given their appropriate weight.
All estimates are presented, therefore, as
relating to all systems in the industry group, excluding only those below the minimum size
at the time of reference of the universe data.
Definition of System
A system , for purposes of this study, includes the outlying as well as central
location (or locations) -at which electricity is generated or from which gas is distributed,
transmitted, and/or stored. If both a parent company and subsidiary were operating system s,
these were considered as separate units, for purposes of this study.
Employment
The 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 labor force included in the survey.
The advance planning necessary to make a wage survey requires the use of lists of systems
assembled considerably in advance of the payroll period studied.
Nonsupervisory Workers
The term "nonsupervisory w o r k e r s ," as used in this bulletin, includes employees
such as line and cablemen, maintenance and repairmen, power dispatchers, electricians,
meter readers, laborers, general office clerks, office-machine operators, janitors and
watchmen, and other employees below the supervisory level whose services are closely
associated with those of employees listed above.
Administrative, executive, professional,
and technical employees were excluded.
Nonsupervisory workers were divided into two
groups— physical workers and office workers.
Physical W orkers.
In this survey working foremen and other nonsupervisory
workers engaged in nonoffice functions are called physical workers in accordance with
industry nonmenclature.
Temporary or force-account construction employees, who were
utilized as a separate work force engaged in construction of major additions or alterations,
were excluded. Permanent employees who were regularly employed on routine construction
work, however, were included.
Physical workers employed in services other than gas or
electric were excluded.

1 Includes only systems with 100 or more workers at the time of reference of the universe data.
2 Includes executive, professional, and other employees excluded from the nonsupervisory workers category.
3 Includes data for regions in addition to those shown separately.
Office W orkers. The term "office w o r k e r s," as used in this bulletin, includes all
nonsupervisory office workers. Office workers who may have been employed in the operation
of allied services were included.
Occupations Selected for Study
Occupational classification was based on a uniform set of occupational descriptions
designed to take account of inter system and interarea variations in duties within the same
73
job. (See appendix B for these descriptions.)
The occupations were chosen for their nu
m erical importance, their usefulness in collective bargaining, or their representativeness
of the entire job scale in the industry.
Working supervisors, apprentices, learners, be
ginners, trainees, handicapped, part-tim e, temporary, and probationary workers were not
reported in the data for selected occupations, but were included in the data for all physical
and office workers.
Wage Data
The wage information relates to average straight-time hourly earnings, excluding
premium pay for overtime and for work on weekends, holidays, and late shifts. Incentive
payments, such as those resulting from piecework or production bonus system s, and
cost-of-living bonuses, were included as part of the w orkers’ regular pay; but nonproduction
bonus payments, such as Christmas or yearend bonuses, were excluded. The hourly earn
ings of salaried workers were obtained by dividing straight-time salary by normal rather
than actual hours. 8
Comparison with Other Statistics
The straight-time hourly earnings presented in this bulletin differ in concept from
the gross average hourly earnings published in the Bureau's monthly hours and earnings
series. Unlike the latter, the estimates presented here exclude premium pay for overtime
and for work on weekends, holidays, and late shifts.
Average earnings were calculated
from the weighted data by summing individual hourly earnings and dividing by the number
of individuals. In the monthly series, the sum of the man-hour totals reported by systems
in the industry were divided into the reported payroll totals.
System Practices and Supplementary Wage Provisions
Supplementary benefits and practices were treated statistically on the basis that if
formal provisions for supplementary benefits and practices were applicable to half or more
of the physical workers in a system , the practices or benefits were considered applicable
to all such workers. Sim ilarly, if fewer than half of the workers were covered, the practice
or benefit was considered nonexistent in the system.
Because of length-of-service and
other eligibility requirements, the proportion of workers receiving the benefits may be
smaller than estimated. Because of rounding, sums of individual items may not equal totals.
Weekly Hours. Data relate to the predominant work schedule for physical workers
(or office workers) employed on the day shift, regardless of sex.
Shift Differential P ractices. Data relate to the practice in those systems operating
extra shifts during the payroll period studied.
Paid Holidays.
provided annually.
Paid holiday provisions relate to full-day and half-day holidays
Paid Vacations. The summary of vacation plans is limited to formal arrangements,
excluding informal plans, whereby time off with pay is granted at the discretion of the
employer or the supervisor.
The periods of service for which data are presented were
selected as representative of the most common practices, but they do not necessarily reflect
individual system provisions for progression.
For example, the changes in proportions
indicated at 5 years of service include changes in provisions which may have occurred
after 4 years.
Health, Insurance, and Pension Plans. Data are presented for all health, insurance,
and pension plans for which all or a part of the cost is borne by the employer, excluding
only programs required by law, such as workmen's compensation and social security.
Among the plans included are those underwritten by a commercial insurance company and
those paid directly by the employer from his current operating funds or from a fund set
aside for this purpose.
8 Average hourly rates or earnings for each occupation or other group of workers, such as men, women,
were obtained by weighting each rate (or hourly earnings) by the number of workers receiving the rate.

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; in
formal arrangements have been omitted.
Separate tabulations are provided according to
(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 may be self-insured.
Catastrophe insurance, sometimes referred to as extended medical insurance, in
cludes the plans designed to cover employees in case of sickness or injury involving an ex
pense which goes beyond the normal coverage of hospitalization, medical, and surgical plans.
Tabulations of retirement plans are limited to plans which provide regular payments
upon retirement for the remainder of the worker's life.
Paid Funeral a n d Jury Duty Leave. Tabulations of paid funeral and jury duty
leave are limited to formal plans which provide at least partial payment for time lost as
a result of attending funerals in the family or serving as a juror.
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 con
tent. Because of this emphasis on interestablishment and
interarea comparability of occupational content, the Bu
reau'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 economists are instructed to exclude
working supervisors, apprentices, learners, beginners,
trainees, handicapped, part-tim e, temporary, and proba
tionary workers.
