Industry Wage Survey---Iron and Steel Foundries, November 1962
Summary
Straight-time earnings of production workers in iron and steel foundries
averaged $ 2 .5 0 an hour in November 1962.
Men accounted for all but about
1 percent of the 152,928 workers covered by the Bureau’ s su r v e y .1 In the
earnings array, the middle half of the workers earned between $ 2 . 13 and $ 2 .8 5
an hour.
More than half of the workers were in the Great Lakes region and av­
eraged $ 2 .6 5 an hour. Averages in the remaining regions ranged from $ 1 .8 8 in
the Southwest to $ 2 . 62 in the Pacific region.
Data were tabulated separately for three types of foundries. 2 Nationwide,
workers in steel foundries averaged $ 2 .5 6 an hour, compared with $ 2 .4 9 for
workers in foundries primarily producing gray iron castings, except pipe and
pipefitting s , and $2.31 for those infoundries producing gray iron pipe and pipefitting s .
Employment by type of foundry varied considerably among the regions.
For
example, foundries producing gray iron pipe and fittings accounted for nearly
two-thirds of the workers in the Southeast but less than 1 percent of the workers
in the Great Lakes region.
For each of the three types of foundries, earnings data were tabulated
by size of community, size of establishment, for selected occupations, by labormanagement contract coverage, and by method of wage payment.
Foundries employing more than nine-tenths of the workers in the industry
had work schedules of 40 hours a week and provided at least 6 paid holidays a
year, paid vacations, and life, hospitalization, and surgical insurance benefits.
Industry Characteristics
Iron and steel foundries within the scope of the survey employed an
estimated 152, 928 production workers in November 1962.
Alm ost half of the
workers were in foundries primarily producing gray iron castings other than pipe
and fittings; nearly one-eighth in gray iron pipe and fittings foundries; slightly
more than one-fourth in steel foundries; and the remainder were in malleable
iron foundries.
The Great Lakes region accounted for more than half, the Middle Atlantic
region a sixth, and the Southeast a tenth, of the production workers in the industry.
Smaller proportions were found in each of the other regions. The geographical
distribution of production workers in the industry differed by type of foundry.
For example, the Great Lakes region employed almost two-thirds of the workers
in the gray iron, except pipe and fittings, foundries and nearly half of those in
steel foundries, but very few in gray iron pipe and fittings foundries.
The
Southeast region, on the other hand, accounted for almost three-fifths of the
workers in the pipe and fittings foundries but only a small proportion of the
workers in other gray iron foundries.
A fourth of the steel foundry workers
were in the Middle Atlantic region, compared with less than a sixth of the workers
in gray iron pipe and fittings foundries, and in other gray iron foundries.

1 See appendix A for scope and method of survey; also for definition of production workers, as used in this study.
2 Data for malleable iron foundries are inducted in the estimates for all iron and steel foundries but are not
provided separately.

The foundries included in the study generally operated on a job or order
basis, manufacturing castings for sale to others or for interplant transfer. Estab­
lishments making castings primarily for shipment to other firm s accounted for
four-fifths of the w orkers; those producing for another plant of the same firm in
the same wage area, employed one-tenth of the workers and those producing
mainly for another plant of the same firm but in a different wage area, another
tenth of the workers. The proportions differed, however, among the regions and
types of foundries.
For example, more than nine-tenths of the workers in the
Middle Atlantic and Southeast regions were in establishments producing primarily
for shipment to other firm s, compared with seven-tenths in the Great Lakes
region.
Virtually all workers in gray iron pipe and fittings foundries and in
steel foundries were in plants shipping mainly to other firm s; seven-tenths of the
workers in gray iron, except pipe and fittings, foundries were in such plants.
Three-fourths of the production workers were employed in m etropol­
itan a re a s 3 in November 1962.
Regionally, the proportions varied from about
two-thirds in the Southeast to four-fifths or more in the New England, Middle
Atlantic, Mountain, and Pacific regions.
The proportions also differed by type
of foundry.
For example, in the Great Lakes region, almost seven-eighths of
the steel foundry workers were in metropolitan areas compared with approximately
seven-tenths in gray iron, except pipe and fittings, foundries. Metropolitan areas
in the Southeast accounted for seven-tenths of the workers in gray iron pipe
and fittings foundries but only slightly more than two-fifths in other gray iron
foundries.
Establishments with 100 workers or more accounted for five-sixths of
all production workers within scope of the study, four-fifths in the Middle Atlantic
region, and seven-eighths each in the Great Lakes and Southeast regions. More
than nine-tenths of the workers in gray iron pipe and fittings foundries and in
steel foundries were in this establishm ent-size group, compared with about
three-fourths in gray iron, except pipe and fittings, foundries.
Establishments with collective bargaining agreements covering a m a ­
jority of their workers employed five-sixths of the production workers in the
industry, approximately nine-tenths in the Great Lakes region, four-fifths in the
Middle Atlantic region, and seven-tenths in the Southeast.
Almost nine-tenths
of the workers in steel foundries were employed in plants with such contract
coverage, compared with approximately three-fourths in gray iron pipe and fittings
foundries and four-fifths in other gray iron foundries.
Establishments with a
majority of their workers covered by labor-management agreements accounted for
seven-eighths of the workers in metropolitan areas and about three-fourths in
nonmetropolitan areas.
Foundries with such contract coverage accounted for
two-thirds of the workers in establishments with fewer than 100 workers compared
with seven-eighths in larger establishments.
The International M olders1 and Allied W orkers1 Union of North Am erica,
United Steelworkers of America, and United Automobile, Aerospace and A g ri­
cultural Implement Workers of Am erica (all AFL—CIO) are the principal unions.
Each of these was the major union in establishments with approximately one-fourth
of the workers. The proportions differed, however, by region and type of foundry.
For example, in the Middle Atlantic region, about one-half of the workers were
in establishments in which contracts with the United Steelworkers of Am erica
covered the largest number of workers, whereas one-half of the workers in the
Great Lakes region were in establishments having contracts with the United
Automobile, Aerospace and Agricultural Implement Workers of Am erica. In gray

iron pipe and fittings foundries, contracts with the International M olders1 and
Allied W orkers1 Union were m ost common whereas in steel foundries, United Steel­
workers contracts were most prevalent. In gray iron, except pipe and fittings,
foundries, the International Molders' and Allied Workers' and the United Auto­
mobile, Aerospace and Agricultural Implement Workers were the major unions.
Virtually all production workers were men. A few women were employed
in such occupations as core assem blers and finishers, coremakers, and class B
and C inspectors.
One-fourth of the workers were paid incentive rates; almost three-tenths
in the Great Lakes region and nearly one-fourth in the Middle Atlantic and South­
east regions were paid on this basis.
Individual piecework was most common
although small proportions of the workers were paid on individual bonus, group
bonus, and group piecework bases. Stint work, a plan whereby a fixed amount
was paid for a predetermined amount of work regardless of the actual length of
time required, was reported in a few of the foundries contacted.
Average Hourly Earnings
Production workers in iron and steel foundries averaged $ 2 .5 0 an hour
in November 1962 (table 2).
In the major regions of industry concentration,
Great Lakes, Middle Atlantic, and Southeast (together accounting for more than
four-fifths of the work force), their earnings averaged $ 2 .6 5 , $ 2 .4 5 , and $ 2 . 16
an hour, respectively.
Individual earnings ranged widely with 3 percent receiving less than
$ 1 .5 0 an hour and 5 percent earning $ 3 .5 0 or m ore.
The middle half of the
workers had hourly earnings within a range of $ 2 . 13 to $ 2 . 85; in the Great Lakes
region, the range of the middle half was $ 2 .2 9 to $ 2 .9 0 ; in the Middle Atlantic,
$ 2 .0 9 to $ 2 . 74; and in the Southeast, $ 1. 84 to $ 2. 50.
Among the three types of foundries for which data are presented, workers
averaged $ 2 .5 6 an hour in steel foundries, $ 2 .4 9 in gray iron, except pipe and
fittings, foundries, and $ 2 .3 1 in gray iron pipe and fittings foundries (table 1).
The earnings distributions of workers in these branches of the industry (tables 3 to
5) are summarized in the following tabulation:

Earnings relationships among the product groups differed by region.
For
example, in the Great Lakes region, average hourly earnings were the same in
gray iron, except pipe and fittings, foundries and in steel foundries ($ 2 .6 5 ) . In
the Middle Atlantic region, workers in steel foundries averaged 25 cents more
than workers in gray iron, except pipe and fittings, foundries. In the Southeast,
workers averaged $ 2. 30 an hour in gray iron pipe and fittings foundries and $ 1.83
in other gray iron foundries.
Production w orkers1 average hourly earnings also differed by plant size.
For example, in gray iron, except pipe and fittings, foundries, workers in plants
employing 100 or more workers averaged 38 cents an hour more than workers
in sm aller plants ($ 2 .5 9 and $ 2 .2 1 ). In the Great Lakes region, the corresponding
difference was 40 cents ($ 2 . 72 and $ 2 . 32); in the Middle Atlantic region, 24 cents
( $ 2 .4 5 and $ 2 .2 1 ) ; and in the Southeast, 47 cents ( $ 2 .0 2 and $ 1 .5 5 ).
In steel
foundries, the nationwide hourly earnings average was 20 cents greater in the
larger establishm ent-size group than in sm aller plants ( $ 2 .5 8 and $ 2 .3 8 ).
Metropolitan area workers in gray iron, except pipe and fittings, foundries
averaged 27 cents an hour more than those in nonmetropolitan areas ($ 2 . 56 and
$ 2 .2 9 ) ; in gray iron pipe and fittings foundries, the difference was 22 cents
($ 2 .3 6 and $ 2 .1 4 ) ; and in steel foundries, 31 cents ($ 2 .6 1 and $ 2 .3 0 ). Among
the regions, the difference in average hourly earnings in gray iron, except pipe
and fittings, foundries, in the two types of areas amounted to 15 cents in the
Southeast and 32 cents in the Great Lakes region.
In steel foundries, m etro­
politan area workers averaged 27 cents more than nonmetropolitan area workers
in the Great Lakes region, compared with a 5-cent difference in the Middle
Atlantic region.
Average hourly earnings for production workers were generally higher
in establishments in which a majority of the workers were covered by labormanagement contracts than in establishments in which none or a minority were
covered by such contracts.
In considering the wage differences noted in the preceding paragraphs and
in the later discussion of occupational earnings, it must be emphasized that it
is not possible to isolate and measure the impact on wage levels of any one of
these factors. To illustrate their interrelationship, seven-tenths of the workers
in gray iron pipe and fittings foundries in the Southeast were in metropolitan
areas, and virtually all workers in such foundries were in establishments with
100 or more workers. The corresponding proportions in other gray iron foundries
in this region were slightly more than two-fifths in metropolitan areas and nearly
three-fifths in establishments employing 100 or more.
Occupational Earnings
The 33 occupations for which average hourly earnings are presented in
table 6 accounted for slightly more than half of the 152,928 production workers
in the iron and steel foundries industry at the time of the study.
All workers
in 24 of these jobs were men; in each of the other occupations, except class C
inspectors, women accounted for less than 4 percent of the workers. (Ten percent
of the class C inspectors were women.)
Nationally, average earnings ranged from $3.72 an hour for metal pattern­
makers and $3. 27 for wood patternmakers to $2.01 for material handling laborers.
Chippers and grinders and machine m olders, numerically the m ost important jobs
studied, averaged $ 2 .4 3 and $ 2 .9 2 an hour, respectively. Among 18 occupations
for which data could be presented for all regions, average earnings were generally
highest in the Pacific or Great Lakes region and lowest in the Southwest, with the
difference between the highest and lowest regional averages usually amounting to
75 cents an hour or m ore.




5

As indicated in the following tabulation of average earnings for men in
some of the occupations reported by type of foundry (tables 7, 18, and 24), earnings
relationships differed considerably. For example, in gray iron, except pipe and
fittings, foundries, average hourly earnings for material handling laborers were
44 cents below the average for all production workers; in gray iron pipe and
fittings foundries the corresponding difference was also 44 cents; and in steel
foundries, 41 cents. Floor molders, on the other hand, averaged 12 cents above
the overall average in gray iron, except pipe and fittings, foundries, 49 cents
above in gray iron pipe and fittings foundries and 40 cents higher than the average
for all production workers in steel foundries.

Comparisons between types of foundries within a particular region also
indicate varying relationships.
For example, in the Great Lakes region where
men production workers in steel foundries averaged 2 cents an hour more than
those in gray iron, except pipe and fittings, foundries ($ 2 .6 7 and $ 2 .6 5 ), the
difference in wage levels for chippers and grinders was 16 cents ($2 .67 and $2.51)
and for floor m olders, 32 cents ($ 3 . 10 and $ 2 .7 8 ). By contrast, average hourly
earnings for material handling laborers in steel foundries were 22 cents below the
average for this occupation in gray iron, except pipe and fittings, foundries ($ 2 . 19
and $ 2 .4 1 ) . If comparison is limited to a single area, wage differences still are
noted between types of foundries. Production workers in Chicago averaged $ 2 . 7 3
an hour in steel foundries (table 29) and $ 2. 48 in gray iron, except pipe and
fittings, foundries (table 12).
For material handling laborers, average hourly
earnings in these types of foundries were $2 . 22 and $ 2 . 15, respectively, and for
floor m olders, $ 3 . 3 1 and $ 2 . 8 8 . (Tim e-rated floor m olders, however, averaged
$ 2 . 8 9 an hour in both types of foundries.) In Pittsburgh, where hourly earnings
for production workers averaged $ 2 . 7 7 in steel foundries and $ 2 . 6 4 in gray iron,
except pipe and fittings, foundries, the difference in average hourly earnings for
material handling laborers was 5 cents ($2. 30 and $2. 25) compared with a 50-cent
difference for floor molders ( $ 3 . 0 7 and $ 2 . 5 7 ) . (See tables 15 and 31.)
Earnings of individuals performing similar tasks also varied within the
same industry branch and labor market. This was particularly evident for jobs
commonly paid on an incentive basis.
For example, earnings of men chippers
and grinders in Chicago steel foundries ranged from less than $ 1. 80 to more than
$ 4 . 20 an hour (table 29).
Occupational earnings data were tabulated by size of establishment (tables
8, 19, and 25), by size of community (tables 9, 20, and 26), by labor-management
contract coverage (tables 10, 21, and 27), and by method of wage payment (tables
11, 22, and 28) for the three types of foundries. Occupational average earnings




6

typically were higher in establishments with 100 or more workers than in sm aller
foundries and in metropolitan areas than in nonmetropolitan areas.
Average
earnings also were usually higher in establishments in which a majority of the
workers were covered by labor-management agreements than in foundries in
which none or a minority of the workers were covered by such contracts. For
most occupations incentive paid workers had higher average earnings than hourly
rated workers.
Establishment Practices and Supplementary Wage Provisions
Data were also obtained on work schedules, shift differentials, and
selected supplementary wage benefits including paid holidays and vacations, and
health, insurance, and pension plans.
Scheduled Weekly Hours.
Work schedules of 40 hours a week were
in effect in establishments employing 93 percent of the production workers in
November 1962 (table 32). Approximately nine-tenths or more of the workers in
each region were scheduled to work 4 0 -hour weeks.
Shift Differential Provisions and P ractices. More than four-fifths of the
workers were employed in foundries having provisions for wage differentials for
late-shift work (table 33).
The provisions differed greatly but most commonly
amounted to 5, 8, or 10 cents or 5 percent for second-shift work and 10 or
12 cents or 10 percent for third or other late-shift work. In gray iron, except
pipe and fittings, foundries the most common second-shift differential provisions
were 10 cents or 5 percent; in gray iron pipe and fittings foundries, 5 cents or
8 cents; and in steel foundries, 8 cents or 10 cents (table 34). The m ost prev­
alent differentials for third or other late-shift work in the respective types of
foundries were 10 cents or 10 percent; 8, 10, or 12 cents; and 10 or 12 cents.
Second-shift operations at the time of the study accounted for about
18 percent of the workers and third or other late shifts employed 4 percent
(table 35).
Paid Holidays. Virtually all workers were employed in foundries which
provided paid holidays (table 36).
Approximately half of the workers received
7 days and nearly a fourth received 6 days plus 2 half days annually.
Seven
days a year were provided in establishments employing a majority of the workers
in all regions except New England, Southwest, and Great Lakes. In New England,
two-fifths received at least 8 days; in the Southwest, 6 days were m ost common;
and in the Great Lakes region, the categories 6 days and 6 days plus 2 half days
included half the workers.
In m ost of the areas for which separate data were
tabulated for selected types of foundries, 4 7 days a year was the usual provision.
As shown in table 37, provisions differed by type of foundry.
Paid Vacations. Paid vacations after qualifying periods of service were
provided by nearly all establishments studied.
Almost all workers were in
foundries granting at least 1 week after 1 year of service (table 38). Two weeks
or more after 5 years were provided in establishments with more than nine-tenths
of the workers, at least 3 weeks after 15 years in foundries with more than
four-fifths of the workers, and 4 weeks after 25 years of service in foundries
with nearly a fifth of the workers. As indicated in table 39, provisions differed
by type of foundry. For example, in the Middle Atlantic region, establishments
providing 3 weeks or more after 15 y ea rs1 service accounted for two-thirds of
the workers in gray iron, except pipe and fittings, foundries compared with nearly

4 Separate area reports which include supplementary benefits data, as well as the wage information shown in
tables 12—17, 23, and 29—31, are available upon request.

all workers in steel foundries (table 39).
In the Southeast, gray iron pipe and
fittings foundries with nine-tenths of the workers provided 3 weeks after 15 years;
less than half the workers in other gray iron foundries in this region were in
establishments having this provision.
Two-fifths of the workers in the Great
Lakes region steel foundries were in establishments providing 4-week vacations
after 25 years, compared with less than a tenth of the workers in gray iron,
except pipe and fittings, foundries.
Among the areas for which separate data are available for selected types
of foundries, vacation provisions generally included 1 week after 1 year of service,
2 weeks after 5 years.
Provisions after longer periods of service differed
significantly.
For example, 4-week vacations after 25 years of service were
provided in Pittsburgh steel foundries with about two-thirds of the workers, in
Pittsburgh gray iron, except pipe and fittings, foundries with two-fifths of the
workers and in Birmingham gray iron pipe and fittings foundries with almost
three-fourths of the workers.
In two areas, on the other hand, 3 weeks were
the greatest length of vacation provided.
Health, Insurance, and Pension Plans. Life, hospitalization, and surgical
insurance, for which employers paid at least part of the cost, were available to
nearly all production workers (table 40).
Nine-tenths of the workers were in
foundries providing sickness and accident insurance, and more than seven-tenths
were in establishments providing accidental death and dismemberment and medical
insurance. Although provisions in the different types of foundries for which data
are shown in table 41 were generally similar for several types of insurance,
provisions differed for other types. For example, in the Middle Atlantic region,
the proportions of workers employed in establishments providing medical in­
surance were one-third in gray iron pipe and fittings foundries, three-fourths
in other gray iron foundries, and three-fifths in steel foundries.
Retirement pension benefits (other than those available under Federal
old-age, survivors, and disability insurance) were provided by foundries employing
two-thirds of the workers.
Approximately three-fourths of the workers in the
Great Lakes and Southeast regions and almost three-fifths in the Middle Atlantic
region were in establishments having such provisions. Retirement benefits were
generally more prevalent in steel and gray iron pipe and fittings foundries than
in other gray iron foundries.
Other Selected Benefits. Provisions for cost-of-livin g pay adjustments
and for unemployment benefits supplementing those provided under State unem­
ployment insurance were reported by establishments with approximately one-third
of the workers (table 42). Retirement severance pay and paid funeral leave were
provided by establishments with one-tenth of the workers.
The proportions of
workers covered by these provisions differed, however, by region and type of
foundry (table 43).

Appendix A: Scope and Method o f Survey
The survey included establishm ents prim arily engaged in manufacturing iron and
steel castings (industry group 332, as defined in the 1957 edition of the Standard Industrial
C lassification Manual, prepared by the U.S. Bureau of the Budget).
Separate auxiliary units
such as central offices w ere excluded.
The establishm ents studied w ere selected from those employing 20 or m ore w orkers
at the tim e of referen ce of the data used in compiling the universe lis ts .
The number of establishm ents and w orkers actually studied by the Bureau, as w ell
as the number estim ated to be in the industry during the payroll period studied, are shown
in the table on the following page.
Method of Study
Data w ere obtained by personal v isits of Bureau field econom ists under the direction
of the B ureau's A ssista n t Regional D irectors for Wages and Industrial Relations. The survey
was conducted on a sam ple b a sis.
To obtain appropriate accuracy at m inim um cost, a
greater proportion of large than of sm a ll establishm ents was studied. In combining the data,
however, all establishm ents were given their appropriate weight. A ll estim ates are p resen ted,
therefore, as relating to all establishm ents in the industry group, excluding only those below
the m inim um size at the tim e of reference of the universe data.

Establishm ent D efinition
An establishm ent, for purposes of this study, is defined as a single physical location
where industrial operations are perform ed.
An establishm ent is not n e c e ssa r ily identical
with the company, which m ay consist of one or m ore establishm ents.
Employm ent
The estim ates of the number of w orkers 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 n e cessa ry to make a wage survey requ ires the use of lis ts of esta b ­
lishm ents a ssem bled considerably in advance of the payroll period studied.

Production W orkers
The term "production w o rk ers, " as used in this bulletin, includes working forem en
and all nonsupervisory w orkers engaged in nonoffice functions.
A dm in istrative, executive,
p rofession al, and technical personnel, and force-accou n t construction em ployees who were
utilized as a separate work force on the fir m 's own prop erties, w ere excluded.

Occupations Selected for Study
Occupational classification was based on a uniform set of job descriptions designed
to take account of interestablishm ent and interarea variations in duties within the same job.
(See appendix B for these occupational descriptions.) The occupations w ere chosen for their
num erical im portance, their u sefulness in collective bargaining, or their representativeness
of the entire job scale in the industry. Working su p erviso rs, apprentices, lea rn e rs, beginners,
train ees, handicapped, p a r t-tim e , tem porary, and probationary w orkers were not reported
in the data for selected occupations, but w ere included in the data for all production w orkers.
Wage Data
The wage inform ation relates to average straigh t-tim e hourly earnings, excluding
prem ium pay for overtim e and for work on weekends, holidays, and late shifts.
Incentive
paym ents— such as those resulting fro m piecework or production bonus sy ste m s— and

c o st-o f-liv in g bonuses, were included as part of the w orkers' regular pay; but nonproduction
bonus paym ents, such as C hristm as or yearend bonuses, were excluded. The hourly earnings
of salaried w orkers were obtained by dividing straigh t-tim e sa la ry by norm al rather than
actual h o u rs.5
C om parison with Other Statistics
The straigh t-tim e average hourly earnings presented in this bulletin differ in concept
from the g ro ss average hourly earnings published in the B ureau's monthly hours and earnings
se r ie s.
Unlike the latter, the averages presented here exclude prem ium pay for overtim e
and for work on weekends, holidays, and late shifts and w ere calculated by summing individual
hourly earnings and dividing by the number of individuals.
In the monthly s e r ie s , the sum
of the m an-hour totals reported by the establishm ents in the industry was divided into the
reported payroll totals.
Size of Community
Tabulations by size of community pertain to m etropolitan and nonmetropolitan areas.
The term "m etro p o litan a r e a ," as used in this bulletin, r efers to the Standard Metropolitan
Statistical A reas as defined by the U.S. Bureau of the Budget.
Except in New England, a Standard M etropolitan Statistical A rea is defined as a
county or group of contiguous counties which contains at least one city of 50, 000 or m ore
inhabitants. Contiguous counties to the one containing such a city are included in the Standard
M etropolitan Statistical A rea if, according to certain criteria , they are essen tia lly m e tr o ­
politan in character and are socially and econom ically integrated with the central city.
In
New England, where the city and town are adm inistratively m ore important than the county,
they are the units used in defining Standard Metropolitan Statistical A re a s.

E stablishm ent P ractices and Supplementary Wage P rovisions
Supplementary benefits and p ractices were treated statistically on the basis that if
form al provisions for supplementary benefits or practices were applicable to half or m ore
of the production w orkers in an establishm ent, the practices or benefits were considered
applicable to all such w orkers. Sim ilarly, if fewer than half of the w orkers were covered,
the practice or benefit was considered nonexistent in the establishm ent. Because of lengtho f-s e r v ic e and other eligibility requirem ents, the proportion of w orkers receiving the benefits
m ay be sm a ller than estim ated.
Because of rounding, sums of individual item s m ay not
equal totals.
W eekly Hours.
Data refer to the predominant work schedule for fu ll-tim e production
w orkers em ployed on the day shift.
Shift P rovisions and P ra ctices.
Data relate to the provisions in establishm ents

Paid V acations.
The sum m ary of vacation plans is lim ited to form al arrangem ents,
excluding inform al plans whereby tim e off with pay is granted at the discretion of the em ployer
or the supervisor.
Paym ents not on a time basis were converted; for exam ple, a payment
of Z percent of annual earnings was considered the equivalent of 1 w eek's pay. The periods
of service for which data are presented were selected as representative of the m ost common
p ractices, but they do not n e ce ssa rily reflect individual establishm ent provisions for p ro ­
gression .
For exam ple, the changes in proportions indicated at 5 years of service m ay
include changes which occurred after 4 years.

b Average hourly rates or earnings for each occupation or other group of workers such as m en, women, or production workers,
were obtained by weighting each rate (or hourly earnings) by the number of workers receiving the rate.

Appendix B: Occupational Descriptions

The p rim ary purpose of preparing job descriptions
for the B ureau's wage surveys is to a ssist its field staff
in classifyin g into appropriate occupations w orkers who
are em ployed under a variety of payroll titles and different
work arrangem ents from establishm ent to establishm ent
and from area to area.
This perm its the grouping of
occupational wage rates representing com parable job con­
tent. Because of this em phasis on interestablishm ent and
inter area com parability of occupational content, the B u­
reau 's job descriptions m ay differ significantly from those
in use in individual establishm ents or those prepared for
other purposes.
In applying these job descriptions, the
Bureau's field econom ists are instructed to exclude working
su p erviso rs, apprentices, lea rn ers, beginners, trainees,
handicapped,
p a rt-tim e ,
tem porary,
and probationary
w orkers.
