Industry Wage Survey---

Iron and Steel Foundries, November 1967
and related workers in November 1937. This was
an increased of 21 percent over the employment
level recorded in November 1962, the date of a
sim ilar Bureau survey.2 In the intervening 5 years,
employment levels rose about 6 percent in the
Middle Atlantic and Pacific regions, 10 percent in
the Middle West, and between 25 and 28 percent
in the New England, Southeast, Southwest, and
Great Lakes regions. The two sm allest regions
in terms of industry employment were at the
extremes in relative employment changes between
the two survey periods; up 47 percent in the
Border States and down 4 percent in the Mountain
region. At least part of the industry’ s employ­
ment increase since 1962 resulted from expanded
production in the motor vehicles and parts, ma­
chine tools, industrial machinery, and other in­
d u s t r i e s within the metalworking sector that
utilize c a s t i n g s . Moreover, many metal parts,
formerly produced by competitive processes, such
as forging, welding, and stamping, are being re­
designed as castings.3

Summary
Straight-time earnings of production and related
workers in iron and steel foundries averaged $2.94
and hour in November 1967. Men, 98 percent of
the 185,236 workers covered by the survey,1 aver­
aged $2.95 an hour; women, employed in jobs
such as inspectors and core assem blers and fin­
ish ers, averaged $2.37. Individual earnings in the
industry were widely dispersed, with the middle
half of the workers earning from $2.47 to $3.40
an hour.
Workers in the Great Lakes region, slightly
more than half of the industry’ s work force, had
the highest average ($3.14) among the regions
studied separately. About one-fourth of the work­
e rs were in the Middle Atlantic and Southeast
regions; they averaged $2.83 and $2.52 an hour,
respectively. The lowest regional average ($2.23)
was recorded in the Southwest. Earnings levels
also varied by type and size of foundry, size of
community, the establishments’ collective bargain­
ing agreement status, and occupation.

Type of Foundry. Establishments engaged pri­
marily in manufacturing gray iron castings, except
pipe and fittings, employed nearly half of the work­
e rs covered by the survey. Nearly three-tenths
of the workers were in steel foundries, and the
remainder were about equally distributed between
malleable iron foundries and gray iron pipe and
fittings foundries. In the latter group, nearly threefifths of the workers were in establishments en­
gaged in manufacturing pressure pipe and fittings;
the r e m a i n d e r were in soil pipe and fittings
foundries.

Among th e production occupations surveyed
separately, average hourly earnings ranged from
$2.43 for material handling laborers to $4.68 for
metal patternmakers. Chippers and grinders, nu­
merically the most important job category studied,
averaged $2.84 an hour.
Paid holidays, usually from 7 to 10 days an­
nually, and paid vacations were provided to almost
all production workers. Typical provisions for paid
vacations were 1 week’ s pay after 1 year of serv­
ice, 2 weeks after 5 years, and 3 weeks after 15
years. Various health and insurance plans, as well
as retirement pension benefits, were also wide­
spread in the industry.

Industry Characteristics
Iron and steel foundries within scope of the
survey employed an estimated 185,236 production

2
Commercial foundries, i.e., those producing
castings for sale to other firm s on a job order
b asis, accounted for four-fifths of the workers
in th e industry. Foundries primarily producing
castings for incorporation into final products of
a parent company (captive foundries) were found
mostly in the Great Lakes region.

production workers employed nearly seven-eighths
of the workers in the industry. The following tab­
ulation by type of foundry indicates the extent of
unionization varied by geographic area:

R egio n

Location. Slightly more than one-half of the
production workers in the industry were employed
in the Great Lakes region. The Southeast em­
ployed about one-tenth of the total and the Middle
Atlantic region, a b o u t one-seventh. The Great
Lakes region accounted for almost two-thirds of
the workers in gray iron foundries, except pipe
and fittings; about one-half of the workers in steel
foundries; and about three-fourths of those in
malleable iron f o u n d r i e s . On the other hand,
slightly le ss than three-fifths of the workers in
gray iron pipe and fittings foundries were in the
Southeast region. The Middle Atlantic region ac­
counted for one-fourth of the workers in steel
foundries and for slightly more than one-tenth of
those in each of the other three types of foundries.
Almost three-fourths of the production work­
ers were employed in metropolitan a r e a s4 in No­
vember 1967. Regionally, the proportions varied
from about one-half in the Middle West to all
workers in the Pacific region. Metropolitan areas
accounted for a large majority of the work force
in each of the four types of foundries studied
separately.
Size of Establishment. Establishments having
100 workers or more accounted for approximately
seven-eighths of all production workers within scope
of the study. The proportions were three-fifths in
New England, four-fifths or slightly more in the
M ddle Atlantic, Mountain, and Border regions,
and nearly nine-tenths in the Great Lakes, South­
east, Southwest, and Middle West. Three-fourths
of the workers in gray iron foundries, except pipe
and fittings, were in establishments having 100
employees or more, compared with more than
nine-tenths in the three other types of foundries.

Major unions in the industry are the International
Molders’ and A l l i e d Workers’ Un i o n of North
America; United Steelworkers of America—both
AFL-CIO affiliates; and International Union, United
Automobile, Aerospace and Agricultural Implement
Workers of America (Ind.).

Method of Wage Payment. About three-fourths
of the production workers were paid on a timerated b asis (table 38). Typically, these workers
were paid according to formally established wage
system s providing a single rate for specified job
categories. Wage system s providing a range of
rates for a given job applied to about one-fourth
of the workers, and informal system s primarily
determining pay a c c o r d i n g to the individual’s
qualifications, to 5 percent. Stint work, a plan
Unionization. Establishments having collective whereby a fixed amount was paid for a predeter­
bargaining agreements covering a majority of their mined amount of work regardless of the actual
length of time required, was reported in very
few of the foundries visited. Workers paid under
c h arrangements were considered time-rated

Incentive workers, most commonly paid indi­
vidual piece rates, accounted for nearly one-fourth
of the industry’s labor force. In the Great Lakes
and Middle Atlantic regions, about one-fourth of
the workers were paid on this basis; and in the
Southeast, the proportion was almost one-fifth.
Occupations in which a substantial proportion of
the workers (at least one-third) were paid under
incentive plans included chippers and grinders,
machine molders, metal pourers, and coremakers.
The extent of incentive plans by type of foundry
is presented in table 39.
Average Hourly Earnings
Straight-time earnings for the 185,236 produc­
tion and related workers covered by the survey
averaged $2.94 an hour in November 1967 (table
2 ).5 The average hourly wage for production work­
e r s was 18 percent above the average of $2.50
recorded in a sim ilar BLS survey in November
1962.6 During the 5-year period, wage levels
rose most in the Border States (21 percent) and
least in the Mountain region (11 percent); these
were the sm allest regions in term s of industry
employment. The rise in production-worker aver­
ages ranged 15 to 19 percent in each of the other
regions studied separately.
Average hourly earnings of production work­
e rs in November 1967 ranged from $3.14 in the
Great Lakes region, where slightly more than
half of the industry’ s employment was located,
to $2.23 in the Southwest. Workers in the Middle
Atlantic and Southeast regions, together representThe stra ig h t-tim e av erage hourly earnings in this b u lle ­
tin differ in con cept from the gross av erage hourly earnings pub­
lished in the Bureau's m onthly hours and earnings series ($3. 15 in
N ovem ber 1967). U nlike the latter, the estim ate s presented here
exclu de prem ium pay for o v ertim e and for work on weekends, h o l­
id ay s, and la te shifts. A v erage earnings were c a lc u la te d by su m ­
m ing in divid ual hourly earnings and d ividin g by the num ber of
in dividuals; in the m onthly series, the sum of the m an-hour to tals
reported by establishm ents in the industry was divided into the r e ­
ported payroll to tals.
T h e estim ate o f the number of production workers within
scope of the study is intended only as a gen eral guide to the size
and com position of the labor force included in the survey. It d if­
fers from that published in the m onthly series (1 9 2 ,0 0 0 in N o v em ­
ber 1967) by the e xclu sio n o f establishm ents em ploying few er than
20 workers. T h e adv an ce planning n ecessary to m ake the survey
required the use o f lists o f establishm ents assem bled con siderably
in advan ce of d ata c o lle c tio n . Thus, establishm ents new to the
industry are o m itted , as are establishm ents o rig in ally c la ssifie d as
iron and stee l foundries but found to be in other industries at the
tim e o f the survey.

ing about one-fourth of the industry’ s work force,
averaged $2.83 and $2.52, respectively. Averages
in the other regions for which separate data are
presented were: $3.01 in the Pacific, $2.85 in the
Mountain, $2.84 in the Middle West, $2.60 in New
England, and $2.55 in the Border States.
Among the four types of foundries for which
wage data are tabulated separately, average hourly
earnings for production workers were $3.12 in
m a l l e a b l e iron foundries, $2.96 in gray iron
foundries, except pipe and fittings, $2.92 in steel
foundries, and $2.68 in gray iron pipe and fittings
foundries (table 1). The Southeast, a relatively
low-paid r e g i o n , accounted for almost threefifths of the workers in gray iron pipe and fittings
foundries. On the other hand, the Great Lakes
region, which had the highest regional average
for production workers, accounted for about half of
the workers in steel foundries; almost two-thirds in
gray iron foundries, except pipe and fittings; and
about three-fourths in malleable iron foundries.
Earnings relationships among these four groups
of foundries differed by region. In the Great Lakes
region, for example, workers in gray iron foundries,
except pipe and fittings, averaged 20 cents an hour
more than those in steel foundries ($3.19 compared
with $2.99); whereas in the Middle Atlantic region,
the relationship was reversed ($2.91 compared
with $2.72).
Average earnings for production workers, with
few exceptions, were higher in metropolitan than
in nonmetropolitan areas; higher in establishments
having 100 employees or more than in sm aller
establishments; and higher in union than in non­
union establishments. It must be emphasized that
in a study such as this, it is not possible to isolate
and measure the impact of any of these charac­
teristics on wage levels. To illustrate their inter­
relationship, establishments covered by union con­
tracts accounted for seven-eighths of the workers
in steel foundries in the Great Lakes region; the
proportion in nonmetropolitan areas of this re ­
gion, however, was three-fifths compared with
more than nine-tenths in metropolitan areas. More­
over, other characteristics, such as method of
wage payment, also have an important influence
on wage levels.
Individual earnings of nearly all production
workers covered by the survey were within a range

The interregional spread in average earnings was
generally greater for relatively low-paid occupa­
tions than for those where higher average earnings
were recorded. Material handling laborers, for ex­
ample, averaged 60 percent more in the Great
Lakes region than in the Southwest; the corres­
ponding spread was 36 percent for maintenance
mechanics and 44 percent for wood patternmakers.

of $1.60 to $4.50 an hour. The middle half of the
workers earned from $2.47 to $3.40. The com­
paratively wide spread of individual earnings also
was noted among the four types of f o u n d r i e s
studied separately, and within these groupings by
region (tables 3—6).
Among other factors, the
wide range of worker skills required by the in­
dustry contributed to the wide dispersion of in­
dividual earnings.
Occupational Earnings

Occupational averages varied substantially by
type of foundry (tables 8, 19, 26, and 31). Averages
were usually highest in gray iron foundries, ex­
cept pipe and fittings, or in malleable iron foundries
and lowest in gray iron pipe and fittings foundries.
There were also variations in occupational wage
relationships among the different types of foundries.
As indicated below, for example, machine molders
averaged more than material handling laborers
by 37 percent in both steel and gray iron foundries,
except pipe and fittings, compared with 55 percent
in gray iron pipe and fittings foundries.

Separate information was obtained for 36 oc­
cupational classifications selected to r e p r e s e n t
wage levels for the various activities performed
by production workers in the industry.7 These jobs
accounted for three-fifths of the production work­
ers. Average hourly earnings for the jobs studied
ranged from $2.43 for material handling laborers
to $4.68 for metal patternmakers. Chippers and
grinders, and machine molders, two numerically
important jobs, averaged $2.84 and $3.43 an hour,
respectively (table 7). Women accounted f o r a
relatively small proportion of employment in 15
selected jobs in which they were found.

Differences in occupational pay relationships
by type of foundry were noted by region and in the
few metropolitan areas where comparisons were
possible. In the Great Lakes region, maintenance
mechanics averaged 37 percent more than general
foundry laborers in gray iron foundries, except
pipe and fittings ($2.78 compared to $3.82 an hour),
and 29 percent more in steel foundries ($2.58
compared to $3.32). Limiting the observations to

For jobs permitting comparisons among all
regions, occupational averages were usually high­
est in the Great Lakes and lowest in the Southwest.

Chicago, the spread in average earnings for the
two jobs amounted to 29 percent in gray iron
foundries, except pipe and fittings, and 34 per­
cent in steel foundries.
For the four types of foundries studied, occu­
pational earnings data were tabulated by size of
establishment (tables 10, 21, 28, and 33), by size
of community (tables 9, 20, 27, and 32), by labormanagement contract coverage (tables 11, 22, 29,
and 34), and by method of wage payment (tables
12, 23, 30, and 35). Occupational average earnings
were typically higher in establishments having
100 workers or more than in sm aller foundries,
and higher in metropolitan areas than in nonmet­
ropolitan areas. Average earnings also were usually
higher in establishments where a majority of the
workers were covered by labor-management agree­
ments than in foundries where none or a minority
of the workers were covered by these contracts.
For m o s t occupations permitting comparisons,
incentive-paid workers had higher average earnings
than hourly rated workers in the same job.
Earnings of individuals varied considerably with­
in the same job, type of foundry, and area. This
was particularly apparent in jobs where substantial
proportions of the workers were paid on an in­
centive b asis. The tabulation below indicates a
substantial overlap in individual earnings for ma­
chine molders and metal pourers in gray iron
foundries, except pipe and fittings, in Chicago,
despite a 73-cent-an-hour difference in t h e i r
averages:

Establishment Practices and
Supplementary Wage Provisions
Information also was obtained on work schedules,
s h i f t differentials, and selected supplementary
benefits including paid holidays, paid vacations,
retirement plans, life insurance, sick leave plans,
sickness and accident insurance, and hospitali­
zation, surgical, and medical benefits.
Scheduled Weekly Hours. Weekly work schedules
of 40 hours were in effect in establishments em­
ploying more than nine-tenths of the production
and office workers in November 1967 (table 40).
Regionally, the proportions of production workers
having these schedules ranged from about two-thirds
in New England to virtually all in the Middle Atlantic,
Southwest, and Pacific regions. In New England,
nearly three-tenths were scheduled to work more
than 40 hours.
Shift Differential Provisions and Practices. At
least four-fifths of the workers were employed in
foundries having provisions for wage differentials
for late-shift work (table 41). The provisions
differed considerably, but most commonly amounted
to 8 cents, 10 cents, and 5 percent for the second
shift; and 10 cents, 12 cents, and 10 percent for
third or other late shifts. In gray iron foundries,
except pipe and fittings, the most common secondshift differential provisions were 10 cents and 5
percent; in gray iron pipe and fittings foundries,
8 cents; in steel, 8 and 10 cents; and in malleable
iron, 5 percent (table 42). The most prevalent
third-shift differentials among the four types of
foundries were 10 cents, 12 cents, and 10 percent.
At the time of the study, 21 percent of the
workers were actually employed on second shifts,
and 7 percent were on third or other late shifts
(table 43).
Paid Holidays. Virtually all of the production
workers were employed in foundries which pro­
vided paid holidays (table 44). Almost one-fourth
of the employees received 7 days, and one-third
received 8 days annually. Seven or eight full days
were the most common provisions for most work­
ers except those in the Great Lakes; workers in
that region most commonly received 8 or 10 days.
In general, paid holiday provisions for office workers

6
were sim ilar to those for production workers.
As shown in table 45, paid holiday provisions dif­
fered by type of foundry.
Paid Vacations. Nearly all e s t a b l i s h m e n t s
studied provided paid vacations after qualifying
periods of service (table 46). Vacation plans pro­
viding 1 week’ s pay after 1 year of service, 2
weeks after 5 years, and 3 weeks after 15 years
applied to a large majority of the production
workers. Vacation pay for at least 4 weeks also
was available to nearly three-tenths of the work­
ers after 20 years and slightly more than twofifths after 25 years.
Differences in vacation
provisions within the regions were noted by type
of foundry (table 47). For example, in the South­
west region, establishments e m p l o y i n g almost
three-tenths of the workers in gray iron foundries,
except pipe and fittings, were provided 3 weeks’
vacation after 15 years’ service, compared with
nearly three-fifths in steel foundries; also in the
Great Lakes region, a sim ilar difference was found
in the proportions of workers eligible for 4 weeks*
vacation or more after 25 years of service.
Typical vacation provisions for office workers
were 2 weeks pay after 1 year of service; at least
3 weeks after 10 years; and 4 weeks after 25 years.
Health, Insurance, and Retirement Plans. Life,
hospitalization, and surgical insurance were avail­
able to virtually all production workers (table 48).
Sickness and accident insurance applied to nearly
nine-tenths of the workers, and medical insurance
and accidental death and dismemberment insur­
ance were provided to approximately four-fifths.
At least part of the cost of these benefits was
financed by employers and, typically, they paid
the total cost. Hospitalization, surgical, and med­
ical plans usually covered dependents of employees.
The extent of life, hospitalization, and surgical
insurance varied little by region and type of foundry,
but significant variations were noted for the other
benefits mentioned above. In the Middle Atlantic




and Great Lakes regions* for example, nearly all
production workers in steel foundries were covered
by sickness and accident insurance plans, com­
pared to three-fifths of the workers in steel found­
rie s in the Southwest; corresponding coverage in
gray iron foundries, except pipe and fittings, were
about four-fifths, slightly more than nine-tenths,
and nearly half, respectively, in the three regions.
The proportions of office workers covered by
health and insurance plans were generally sim ilar
to those of production workers. In addition, sick
leave plans applied to almost one-half of the office
workers but were rarely reported for production
workers.
Retirement pension benefits, providing regular
payments for the remainder of the retiree’ s life
(other than Federal social security benefits), were
provided by foundries employing about four-fifths
of the production and office workers. In most of
the nine regions studied, seven-tenths or more of the
workers in each group were covered by these pro­
visions. Retirement plans usually were financed
wholly by employers.
Other Selected Benefits. Provisions for cost-ofliving pay adjustments were reported in establish­
ments employing nearly three-tenths of the plant
workers (table 50). Unemployment benefits supple­
menting those provided under State unemployment
insurance were available to one-third of the work­
ers; jury duty pay applied to about three-fifths; and
funeral leave pay to almost one-half. Provisions
for technological severance pay, i.e., payments to
employees permanently separated from the estab­
lishment through no fault of their own, applied to
one-fourth of the workers. Except for funeral leave
and jury duty pay, the proportions of office workers
covered by these benefits were usually somewhat
sm aller than those of production workers. The pro­
portions of workers in establishments providing
these benefits varied considerably by regions and
by type of foundry within regions (table 51).

Appendix A.

Scope and Method of Survey

Scope of Survey
The survey included establishments engaged prim arily in manufacturing iron and steel castings
(industry group 332, as defined in the 1967 edition of the Standard Industrial Classification Manual, prepared by the U.S. Bureau of the Budget). Separate auxiliary units, such as central offices, were excluded.
The establishments studied were selected from those employing 20 workers or more at the time of
reference of the data used in compiling the universe lists.
The number of establishments and workers actually studied by the Bureau, as well as the number
estimated to be within scope of the survey 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 staff under the direction of the Bureau’s
Assistant Regional Directors for Operations. The survey was conducted on a sample b asis. To obtain ap­
propriate accuracy at minimum cost, a greater proportion of large than of small establishments was
studied. In combining the data, however, all establishments were given their appropriate weight. All
estim ates are presented, therefore, as relating to all establishments in the industry group, excluding
only those below the minimum size at the time of reference of the universe data.
Establishment Definition
An establishment, for purposes of this study, is defined as a single physical location where industrial
operations are performed. An establishment is not necessarily identical with the company, which may con­
sist of one or more establishments. The term s “establishment” and “foundry” have been used inter­
changeably in this bulletin. Both commerical and captive foundries were covered by the study. Commerical
foundries are those producing castings for sale to other firm s on a job order b asis. Captive foundries
are those primarily producing castings for incorporation into final products of a parent company.
Type of Foundry
The classification of foundries was determined on the basis of the principal type of casting produced:
Gray iron pipe and fittings; gray iron, except pipe and fittings; malleable iron; and steel. For example,
if the value of an establishment’ s product was 60 percent malleable iron and 40 percent steel castings,
all workers in that establishment were included in the malleable iron classification.
Employment
The estim ates of the number of workers within 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 establishments assembled considerably in advance of the
payroll period studied.
Production Workers
The term “production workers,” as used in this bulletin, includes working foremen and all nonsupervisory workers engaged in nonoffice functions. Administrative, executive, professional, and technical

personnel, and force-account construction employees, who were utilized as a separate work force on the
firm ’ s own properties, were excluded.
Office Workers
The term “office workers,” as used in this bulletin, includes all nonsupervisory office workers and
excludes administrative, executive, professional and technical employees.
Occupations Selected for Study
Occupational classification was based on a uniform set of job descriptions designed to take account
of interestablishment and interarea variations in duties within the same job. (See appendix B for these
descriptions.) The occupations were chosen for their numerical importance, their usefulness in collec­
tive bargaining, or their representativeness of the entire job scale in the industry. Working supervisors;
apprentices; learners; beginners; trainees; and handicapped, part-time, temporary, and probationary work­
e rs were not reported in the data for selected occupations, but were included in the data for all production
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
worker’ s regular pay, but nonproduction bonus payments, such as Christmas or yearend bonuses, were
excluded.
Average (mean) hourly rates or earnings for each occupation or other group of workers, such as
men, women, or production workers, were calculated by weighing each rate (or hourly earnings) by the
number of workers receiving the rate, totaling, and dividing by the number of individuals. The hourly
earnings of salaried workers were obtained by dividing their straight-time salary by normal rather
than actual hours. The median designates position; that is, one-half of the employees surveyed received
more than this rate, and one-half received le ss. The middle range is defined by two rates of pay; onefourth of the employees earned le ss than the lower of these rates, and one-fourth earned more than the
higher rate.
Size of Community
Tabulations by size of community pertain to metropolitan and nonmetropolitan areas. The term
“metropolitan area,” as used in this bulletin, refers to the Standard Metropolitan Statistical Areas as
defined by the U.S. Bureau of the Budget through April 1967.
Except in New England, a Standard Metropolitan Statistical Area is defined as a county or group of
contiguous counties which contains at least one city of 50,000 inhabitants or more. Contiguous counties
to the one containing such a city are included in the Standard Metropolitan Statistical Area, if, according
to certain criteria, they are essentially metropolitan in character and are socially and economically in­
tegrated with the central city. In New England, where the city and town are administratively more im­
portant than the county, they are the units used in defining Standard Metropolitan Statistical Areas.
Method of Wage Payment
Tabulations by method of wage payment relate to the number of workers paid under the various
time and incentive wage system s. Formal rate structures for time-rated workers provide single rates




72
or a range of rates for individual job categories. In the absence of a formal rate structure, pay rates
are determined primarily with reference to the qualifications of the individual worker. A single rate
structure is one in which the same rate is paid to all experienced workers in the same job classification.
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. Individual
experienced workers may occasionally be paid above or below the single rate for special reasons, but
these payments are regarded as exceptions. Range-of-rate plans are those where the minimum and/or
maximum 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 a combination of various con­
cepts of merit and length of service. 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 based on production in excess of a quota or for completion of a job in le ss than standard time.
Stint work provides a fixed daily rate for a predetermined amount of work regardless of the actual
amount of time required. Workers employed under these plans were considered timeworkers. The
hourly rate was determined by dividing daily or weekly earnings by scheduled daily or weekly hours
(i.e., maximum daily or weekly hours before overtime premium is paid).
Scheduled Weekly Hours
Data on weekly hours refer to the predominant work schedule for full-time production workers (or
office workers) employed on the day shift.
Shift Provisions and Practices
Shift provisions relate to the policies of establishments either currently operating late shifts or
having formal provisions covering late-shift work. Practices relate to workers employed on late shifts
at the time of the survey.
Supplementary Wage Provisions
Supplementary benefits were treated statistically on the b asis that if formal provisions were ap­
plicable to half or more of the production workers (or office workers) in an establishment, the benefits
were considered applicable to all workers. 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
eligibility requirements, the proportion of workers receiving the benefits may be sm aller 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, excluding
informal plans whereby 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 were
selected as representative of the most common practices, but they do not necessarily reflect individual
establishment provisions for progression. For example, the changes in proportions indicated at 10 years
of service may include changes which occurred between 5 and 10 years.
Health, Insurance, and Retirement Plans. Data are presented for health, insurance, pension, and
lump-sum retirement payment plans for which all or part of the cost is borne by the employer, excluding
program s 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.
