The large majority of the 31, 500 workers employed in the combined area of New York and Newark were located in New York City. Employment levels in the remain ing areas ranged from 7, 600 in Boston to about 700 in Baltimore. The only major life insurance area n o t studied separately is Hartford, Conn. Average (mean) weekly salaries of em ployees in 34 representative occupations in life insurance offices in Octobex^-November 1966 ranged from $332 for actuaries (class A), performing highly complex studies, to $63 for routine file clerks (class C). Men sub stantially outnumbered women in each of the occupations with weekly averages of more than $125. Women, predominant in most of the clerical jobs studied, accounted for threefourths of the 112,000 nonsupervisory office employees in establishments covered by the Bureau’ s study.1 Home offices accounted for more than nine-tenths of the employees covered by the survey. The proportions of employees in regional head offices amounted to one-fifth in the Pacific, one-sixth in the Southwest, slightly more than one-eighth in the South east, and one-tenth or less in the remaining regions. Occupational averages tended to be high est in the Middle Atlantic region, the largest region in terms of employment, and lowest in the Middle West. Among the 12 areas sur veyed separately, highest earnings were usu ally recorded in the New York and Newark area and lowest in Dallas. 2 Mutual companies— those owned by policy holders— accounted for three-fifths of the of fice employment covered by the survey. Such companies accounted for more than ninetenths of the employees in the Middle Atlantic region, two-thirds in New England, and nearly three-fifths in the Great Lakes. Most of the employees in the Border States, Southeast, and Southwest were employed by stock com panies. In the Middle West and Pacific r e gions, employment was about equally divided between the two types of companies. Paid holidays and paid vacations were provided by all of the establishments visited during the survey. Various types of employee health, insurance, and pension plans were also widespread in the industry. Industry Characteristics Life insurance c o m p a n i e s employed 480, 000 workers in October— November 1966. Approximately one-third of this employment was in home and regional head offices covered by this survey.3 Four-fifths of the office employees were in companies which handled other types of insurance (e.g., a c c i d e n t , hospitalization, fire) in addition to life insurance. Offices of companies dealing exclusively in life insur ance comprised nearly two-fifths of the work force in the Great Lakes and Middle West, one-fourth in the Border States, one-sixth in the Middle Atlantic region, and one-tenth or less in the other regions. The Middle Atlantic region accounted for one-third of the 112,000 nonsupervisory office employees within scope of the survey. P ro portions in other regions included one-fifth in the Great Lakes, one-sixth in New England, and one-tenth or less in each of the others. Home offices and regional head offices of life insurance companies are located almost ex clusively in metropolitan a r e a s .4* The 12 Home and regional head offices of life insurance companies varied greatly in em ployment size. Two-fifths of th e offices covered by the survey had fewer than 100 workers, three-tenths employed between 100 and 250, and one-eighth, between 250 and 500. Slightly less than 10 percent had more than 1, 000 employees; a few of these em ployed more than 5, 000. 1 See appendix A for scope and method of survey and appendix B for occupational descriptions. 2 For definitions of regions, see footnote 1, appendix A table; and for definitions of areas, footnote 1, tables 2 through 13. 3 Employment and Earnings, BLS, Vol. 13, Nos. 7 and 8, 1967. Life insurance companies have large numbers of sales personnel who are usually not employed in home offices and regional head offices. 4 Standard Metropolitan Statistical Areas, as defined by the U. S. Establishments with collective bargaining agreements covering a majority of their non supervisory office employees accounted for less than 5 percent of the industry's office Bureau of the Budget through March 1965. 1 2 employment. These establishments, located almost entirely within the Great Lakes, South west, Middle Atlantic, and New England r e gions, accounted for less than one-tenth of the employment in each region. Formal systems providing a range of rates for specified occupations were the basis of wage payment for seven-eighths of the of fice employees. Earnings for virtually all of the remaining office workers were deter mined primarily in relation to the qualifica tions of the individual. Formal rate-range systems applied to over nine-tenths of the employees in the New England, Middle Atlan tic, Middle West, and Pacific regions. In the remaining regions, the proportions were four-fifths in the Great Lakes, about seventenths in the Border States and Southeast, and three-fifths in the Southwest. A large majority of the employees in life insurance offices have clerical jobs. These occupations include secretaries, stenogra phers, typists, general clerks, and operators of bookkeeping or other kinds of office m a chines found in most offices. Others have jobs unique to the insurance industry, such as policywriters (typists), p o l i c y change clerks, and insurance checkers. Some are in positions of considerable responsibility which require extensive knowledge of one or more phases of the life insurance business, such as underwriters and claims adjusters. Professional workers account for com paratively few of the jobs in life insurance offices. One profession for which data are provided in this report is actuaries. These workers make statistical studies relating to various kinds of risks to determine the p re mium charge on each type of policy. Insurance companies w e r e among the first business firm s to use electronic com puters. A few companies installed s u c h equipment in the first half of the 1950’ s; by 1963, the overwhelming majority of life in surance companies had installed electronicdata processing equipment (EDP) and applied it to various functions and operations. The application of computers has been directed to most of the large volume insurance opera tions, such as premium billing and account ing, commission accounting, and r e l a t e d recordkeeping, which form erly required large numbers of clerical employees. Increases in employment in occupations related to EDP have been accompanied by employment de clines in such clerical jobs as tabulatingmachine operators, calculating-machine oper ators, and routine clerical and recordkeeping personnel. 5 This general pattern is revealed, to some extent, in a comparison of occupational e m ployment levels between the Bureau's Octo ber— November 1966 and May— July 1961 6 in dustry wage surveys of life insurance offices. Although the two surveys do not provide a precise measure of the magnitude of changes in occupational employments, some general observations on the direction of the changes can be made. Substantial increases were noted in the number of console operators and programers, and smaller increases were recorded in the number of systems analysts and keypunch operators. The numbers of assem blers, tabulating-machine operators, premium acceptors, and clerks in every cat egory studied (i.e ., accounting, correspond ence, file, policy evaluation, and premium ledger card), declined. Employment of actu aries, stenographers, typists, and under writers i n c r e a s e d or remained virtually unchanged. Occupational Earnings The 34 occupations studied, accounting for about 34,000 employees, were selected to represent salary levels for the various types of activities performed by employees in home offices and regional head offices. Average salaries for a large majority of these occupations were 15 to 25 percent higher in October— November 1966 t h a n in May— July 1961, when the Bureau conducted a similar study. 7 Nationwide average weekly salaries in Octobe ^N ovem ber 1966 for jobs predomi nantly staffed by men ranged from $332 for class A actuaries to $76 for class C tabu lating-machine operators (table 1). Averages above $125 a week were recorded for most of the jobs in which men were in the majority, including actuaries, class A claim approvers, electronic-data processing programers, s y s tems analysts, and underwriters. Women, on the other hand, were predominant in the clerical occupations studied. Numerically important clerical jobs included: Class C file clerks ($63), class B typists ($ 6 6.50), class B keypunch operators ($70.50), and gen eral stenographers ($74.50). Among the jobs for which data are p re sented in all regions, averages were usually highest in the Middle Atlantic and lowest in the Middle West. There were, however, some notable exceptions to this pattern. Averages for clerical jobs in the Pacific, for example, frequently exceeded those recorded in the Industry Wage Survey: BLS Bulletin 1324, 1962. Impact of Office Automation in the Insurance Industry, 7 Ibid. BLS Bulletin 1468, 1966. 5 Life Insurance, May— July 1961, 3 Middle Atlantic region, and in several in stances, job averages in the Southeast and Southwest were lower than those in the Mid dle West. Among the 12 areas selected for separate study, earnings were highest in New York and Newark and lowest in Dallas (tables 2 through 13). As indicated in the following tabulation, earnings in the highest paid area were nearly 22 percent above those in the lowest. 8 Relative pay levels (United States=100) New York and Newark---------------------------------------------Los Angeles— Long Beach and Anaheim— Santa Ana— GardenGrove--------------------------------------Boston-----------------------------------------------------------------------Chicago------------------------------------------------------------Baltim ore--------------------------------------------------------Houston------------------------------------------------------------Philadelphia----------------------------------------------------A tla n ta ----------------------------------------------------------------------Minneapolis— St. P a u l----------------------------------------------Jacksonville--------------------------------------------------------------Des Moines------------------------------------------------------D a lla s ------------------------------------------------------------------------- 112 Number of women employed as— 105 104 Average weekly earnings 103 101 101 100 97 96 94 93 92 Interarea differences in average earnings varied substantially by occupation. To illu s trate, class B typists in Chicago averaged 21 percent more than t h o s e i n Dallas, whereas the corresponding spread was only 4 percent for general stenographers. Several of the occupations selected for separate study were staffed almost entirely by either men or women. Among those oc cupations in which both men and women were employed, men usually averaged more than women, even when comparisons were limited to the same area. Differences in average earnings for men and women in the same area and occupational classification may be due to several factors, including variation in the distribution of the sexes among establish ments having different pay levels and possible minor differences in assigned duties. Job descriptions used to classify workers in wage surveys are usually more general than those used in individual establishments in order to allow for minor differences in duties that may exist among establishments. A lso, to the extent that individual pay rates are adjusted on the basis of length of service, longer average service for one sex can result in higher average pay when both sexes are em ployed within the same rate range. 8 These comparisons are based on occupations for which earnings data were available in each area. In each area, aver age weekly earnings for men in 10 jobs and for women in 15 jobs were multiplied by the nationwide employment in die respective occupations, and the products were totaled. The totals are ex pressed as percentages of the similar total for the Nation. Earnings of individuals varied substan tially within the same job and locality. In many instances, weekly earnings of the high est paid employees exceeded those of the lowest paid in the same job and area by $50 or more. Some employees in comparatively low-paid jobs earned more than those in jobs which averaged significantly higher. F o r example, the following tabulation reveals con siderable overlapping of individual salaries for women employed as class A correspond ence clerks and class A keypunch operators in New York and Newark, despite a $36 differ ence in the weekly averages for the two jobs.

Scheduled Weekly Hours and Shift P ra c tic e s. Weekly work schedules of 37.5 hours or less were in effect at the time of the study in establishments accounting for about fourfifths of the nonsupervisory office employees (table 14). The Southwest, Middle West, and Pacific regions were th e only regions in which a majority of th e employees were scheduled to work longer than 37.5 hours a week. Average weekly schedules in the three major regions were 36.0 hours in the Middle Atlantic, 37.0 in New England, and 37.5 in the Great Lakes. Very few office workers (about 1 V 2 p er cent) were employed on late shifts in Octobea>-November 1966; practically all of these were electronic data processing or related employees. Paid Holidays. A ll of the establishments visited during the study granted paid holidays to nonsupervisory office employees (table 15). The number of paid holidays provided annually 4 varied substantially among and within the selected regions. Most common provisions among the three major regions were 12 or 13 days annually in the Middle Atlantic, 10 or 11 days in New England, and 6 or 7 days in the Great Lakes. Provisions for half holidays (in addition to full holidays), were reported by establishments accounting f o r at least one-tenth of the office employment in most regions. and dismemberment insurance applied to slightly more than half of the employees and sickness and accident insurance, to slightly over two-fifths. The incidence of certain benefits varied somewhat by region. The pro portions of employees in establishments pro viding accidental death and dismemberment insurance, for example, ranged from nearly two-fifths in the Border States to two-thirds in New England. Paid Vacations. Paid vacations w e r e provided to all nonsupervisory office em ployees after qualifying periods of service (table 16). Provisions applying to a majority of the employees included: 2 weeks of vaca tion pay after 1 year, 3 weeks after 10 years, and 4 weeks after 20 years of service. P ro visions tended to be more liberal in th e Middle Atlantic than in the other regions, particularly after longer qualifying periods of service. Pensions— providing r e g u l a r lifetime payments to the employee on retirement, in addition to Federal social security benefits— applied to nearly all employees. Health, Insurance, and Pension Plans. Life, hospitalization, surgical, medical, and catastrophe insurance, financed at least in part by the employer, were available to more than nine-tenths of th e office employees (table 17). Sick leave (mostly at full pay with no waiting period) was provided to twothirds of the employees. Accidental death Nonproduction Bonuses. Nonproduction bonuses, typically paid at Christmas or yearend, were provided by establishments em ploying slightly more than one-third of the office employees (table 18). The proportions of employees provided such bonuses ranged from about three-fifths in the Southwest and Middle West to one-sixth in the Pacific. Free Lunches. Establishments employ ing three-tenths of the employees provided free lunches. Although this benefit was most prevalent in the Middle Atlantic region, it was reported by s o m e establishments in nearly all the regions. Table 1.

Scope and Method of Survey The establishments studied were selected from those employing 50 employees or more at the time of reference of the data used in compiling the universe lists. Scope of Survey The study covered home offices and re gional head offices of life insurance com panies (part of industry group 631 as defined in the 1957 edition of the Standard Industrial Classification Manual and the 1963 Supple ment, prepared by the U.S. Bureau of the Budget). The number of establishments and em ployees actually studied by the Bureau as well as the number estimated to be within the scope of the survey during the payroll period studied are shown in the following table: Estimated Number of Establishments and Employees Within Scope of Survey and Number Studied, Life Insurance Industry, October-November 1966 Number of establishments 1 3 * R egion1 and area 2 Employees in establishments Within scope of survey Nonsupervisory Total4 office employees Studied Within scope of study Studied United States 5 --------------------------------------------- 393 217 1 5 7 ,5 4 7 1 1 2,255 1 38,396 New England----------------------------------------------------------Boston----------------------------------------------------------------Middle A tlan tic----------------------------------------------------New Yoik and Newark------------------------------------Philadelphia------------------------------------- --------------Border States----------------------------------------------------------Baltimore----------------------------------------------------------Southeast----------------------------------------------------------------Atlanta--------------------------------------------------------------Jacksonville------------------------------------------------------Southwest--------------------------------------------------------------Dallas----------------------------------------------------------------H ouston------------------------------------------------------------Great Lakes------------------------------------------------------------Chicago------------------------------------------------------------Minneapolis-St. Paul--------------------------------------Middle W est----------------------------------------------------------Des M o in es------------------------------------------------------Pacific--------------------------------------------------------------------Los Angeles-Long Beach and Anaheim— Santa Ana-Garden Grove------------------------------- 20 8 52 26 14 31 8 67 9 6 60 16 8 91 21 10 37 8 25 16 6 27 13 9 21 6 36 7 6 33 12 6 43 13 7 23 7 15 2 2 ,0 7 4 1 0 ,0 2 0 5 1 ,8 1 5 4 5 ,3 7 2 5 ,0 0 0 6 ,1 0 7 1 ,4 8 3 1 6,132 1 ,9 0 4 3 ,3 7 4 1 1 ,9 0 0 3 ,9 8 7 2 ,5 8 1 2 8 ,9 4 9 8 ,3 8 9 3 ,9 8 6 8 ,3 7 4 2 ,4 0 4 1 0 ,7 2 4 1 7 ,0 1 7 7 ,6 3 4 3 5 ,8 1 5 3 1 ,5 5 6 3 ,4 2 4 3 ,7 9 2 694 1 2 ,3 8 4 1 ,5 0 0 2 ,8 4 0 8 ,2 5 4 2 ,9 1 6 1 ,7 4 2 2 0 ,1 2 8 4 ,6 0 0 3 ,0 6 8 5 ,9 7 5 1 ,8 5 0 7 ,8 3 5 2 1 ,6 9 4 9 ,8 4 0 4 9 ,0 5 7 4 3 ,6 4 4 4 ,4 2 0 5 ,4 0 3 1 ,383 12,871 1 ,6 1 4 3 ,3 7 4 9 ,4 7 9 3 ,5 7 7 2 ,4 2 6 2 2 ,5 4 3 7, 363 3 ,4 8 0 7, 064 2 ,3 4 2 9 ,7 2 7 7 7 6 ,6 3 8 4 ,4 8 8 6 ,6 3 8 Total 1 The regions used in this study include: New England— Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, and Vermont; Middle Atlantic— New Jersey, New York, and Pennsylvania; Border States— Delaware, District of Columbia, Kentucky, Maryland, Virginia, and West Virginia; Southeast— Alabam a, Florida, Georgia, Mississippi, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Tennessee; Southwest— Arkansas, Louisiana, Oklahoma, and Texas; Great Lakes— Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, Minnesota, Ohio, and Wisconsin; Middle West— Iowa, Kansas, Missouri, Nebraska, North Dakota, and South Dakota; and Pacific— California, Nevada, Oregon, and Washington. Standard Metropolitan Statistical Areas as defined by the U .S . Bureau of the Budget through March 1965, except New York and Newark and Los Angeles-Long Beach and Anahein>-Santa Ana-Garden Grove, which are combinations of 2 SMSA's. 3 Includes only establishments with 50 employees or more at the time of reference of the universe data. 4 Includes executive, professional, and other employees excluded from the nonsupervisory office employee category. 5 Includes data for the Mountain region in addition to the regions shown separately. Alaska and Hawaii were not included in the study. 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 sur vey was conducted on a sample basis. To obtain appropriate accuracy at minimum cost, 32 a greater proportion of large rather than small establishments was studied. In com bining the data, however, all establishments were given their appropriate weight. All e s timates 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. 33 Establishment Definition An establishment, for purposes of this study, is defined as a single physical location where the operations of the home office or a regional head office are performed. A re gional head office is defined as one having all or nearly all of the normal life insurance ad ministrative functions, including underwriting. An establishment is not necessarily identical with the company, which may consist of one or more establishments. Average (mean) weekly earnings for each occupation were calculated by weighting each rate (or weekly earnings) by the number of workers receiving the rate, totaling, and di viding by the combined number of observa tions. The median designates position— half of the employees surveyed received more than the rate shown and half received less than the rate shown. The middle range is defined by two rates of pay; a fourth of the employees earned less than the lower of these rates and a fourth earned more than the higher rate. Employment Scheduled Weekly Hours The estimates of the number of em ployees within the scope of the study are in tended 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. Data r e f e r to the predominant work schedule for full-tim e nonsupervisory office workers employed on the day shift. Nonsupervisory Office Employees The term "nonsupervisory office em p lo y e e s," as used in this bulletin, includes all nonsupervisory employees of the estab lishment, except those engaged in custodial, maintenance, and related work. Administra tive and executive employees were excluded. Occupations Selected for Study Occupational classification was based on a uniform set of job descriptions designed to take account of inter establishment and inter area variations in duties within the same job. (See appendix B for these descriptions.) The occupations were chosen for their numerical importance, and their representativeness of the entire job scale in the industry. Working supervisors, apprentices, learners, beginners, trainees, the handicapped, part-tim e, tem porary, and probationary workers were not reported in the selected occupations. Supplementary Wage Provisions Supplementary benefits were treated sta tistically on the basis that if formal pro visions were applicable to half or more of the nonsupervisory office employees in an establishment, the benefits were considered applicable to all such employees. Similarly, if fewer than half were covered, the benefits were considered nonexistent in the estab lishment. Because of length-of-service and other eligibility requirements, the proportion of employees receiving the benefits may be smaller than estimated. Paid Holidays. Paid holiday provisions relate to full-day and half-day holidays pro vided annually. Wage Data Paid Vacations. The summary of vaca tion 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 se lected as representative of the most common practices, but they do not necessarily reflect individual establishment provisions for pro gressions. For example, the changes in pro portions indicated at 5 years of service in clude changes in provisions which may have occurred after 4 years. Average weekly hours were rounded to the nearest half hour and average weekly earnings to the nearest half dollar. Standard hours reflect the workweek for which em ployees receive their regular straight-time salaries; earnings correspond to these weekly hours. Cost-of-living allowances were in cluded as part of the em ployee^ regular salary, but nonproduction bonus payments, such as Christmas or yearend bonuses, were excluded. Health, Insurance, and Pension Plans. Data are presented for health, insurance, and pension plans for which all or a part of the cost is borne by the employer, excluding pro grams 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 cur rent operating funds or from a fund set aside for this purpose. 34 Death benefits are included as a form of life insurance. Sickness and accident insur ance 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 presented 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,9 plans are included only if the employer (1) contrib utes more than is legally required or (2) pro vides the employees with benefits which ex ceed 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 employee *s pay during absence from work because of illness; in formal arrangements have been omitted. Sep arate tabulations are provided according to 9 The temporary disability insurance laws in California and Rhode Island do not require employer obntributions. (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 provid ing for complete or partial payment of doc tors* fees. Such plans may be underwritten by a commercial insurance company or a nonprofit organization, or they may be se lfinsured. Catastrophe insurance, sometimes re ferred 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 pensions are limited to plans which provide regular pay ments upon retirement for the remainder of the employee's life. Nonproduction Bonuses. Nonproduction bonuses are defined for this study as bonuses that depend on factors other than the output of the individual employee or of a group of employees. Plans that defer payments beyond 1 year were excluded. 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 Bureau's job descriptions may differ significantly from those in use in individual establishments or those pre pared for other purposes. In applying these job descrip tions, the Bureau's field economists are instructed to exclude working supervisors, apprentices, learners, be ginners, trainees, handicapped, part-tim e, temporary, and probationary workers. ACTUARY Performs life insurance actuarial studies and assignments, applying actuarial theory and practice. Work involves any or a combination of the following: Determines actuarial bases for premium rates, dividends, reserves, and nonforfeiture benefits; conducts mortality, statistical, underwriting, or expense allocation studies; prepares gain and loss exhibits; and drafts and files insurance and annuity contract form s.

May also operate standard punched-card equipment. Do not include trainees that do not have a full knowledge of con verter operations. 35 36 CLAIM APPROVER Reviews life insurance claims to determine the extent of the company's liability and approves or disapproves claims in accordance with policy provisions; and compares data on application, death certificate, or physician's statement with policy file and other company records to ascertain completeness and validity of claim. For wage study purposes, claim approvers are to be classified as follows: Class A . Reviews and approves death claims (other than double indemnity) which normally do not exceed $50, 000; reviews and recommends approval of claims above these lim its; and position usually requires at least 2 years of life insurance experience.
