Summary Straight-time earnings of production and related workers in the separate trousers industry averaged $2.64 an hour in June 1974.1 Earnings of 95 percent of the 71,086 workers within scope of the study were between $2 and $4; about 18 percent earned between $2 and $2.05.2 The $2.64 average was 29 percent above the $2.04 recorded in a similar survey of January 1971. Workers in union establishments, constituting one-third of the work force, averaged $2.85 an hour in June 1974, compared with $2.54 for workers in nonunion plants. Earnings levels, heavily influenced by piecework rates,'also varied by location, establishment size, and occupation. Among the occupations studied separately, averages ranged from $2.32 an hour for janitors to $3.80 for sewing-machine adjusters. Machine cloth cutters, cloth cutters and markers, markers, machine finish pressers, and shipping clerks were the other jobs studied separately that averaged above $3 an hour. The 43,292 sewing-machine operators, three-fifths of all production workers, averaged $2.59 an hour. More than nine-tenths of the production workers were in establishments providing paid holidays, paid vacations, and at least part of the cost of life, hospitalization, and surgical insurance. Retirement pension plans were available to nearly one-half of the workers. The Southeast region employed slightly over two-fifths of the industry’s 71,086 production workers and the Southwest,4 about three-tenths. None of the other four regions studied separately had as much as one-tenth of the work force. Plants in nonmetropolitan areas employed about threefifths of the industry’s workers. Among the regions, the proportions of workers in nonmetropolitan areas were four-fifths or more in the Southeast and Middle West, nearly one-half in the Border States, approximately twofifths in the Great Lakes, and one-sixth in the Middle Atlantic. Slightly over one-half of the industry’s production workers were in the seven States for which separate data were tabulated: Georgia (10,776), Mississippi (8,058), Tennessee (5,601), Pennsylvania (4,329), Alabama (3,587), Missouri (2,270), and North Carolina (1,551). In Northeast Pennsylvania (principally Scranton), the only area for which separate data were developed, production workers totaled 1,573. L o c a tio n . Employment in individual establish ments studied ranged from 20 workers to over 1,000. Nationwide, nearly two-thirds of the workers were in plants with 250 workers or more. In the selected regions, the proportion in the larger size group varied widely and ranged from three-tenths in the Great Lakes to four-fifths in the Border States. S iz e o f e s ta b lis h m e n t. Industry characteristics In June 1974, establishments within scope of the survey employed 71,086 production and related workers, approxi mately the same number as in January 1971, the date of the previous BLS survey.3 Only those plants whose primary product was men’s tailored pants that were not part of a suit were included in the survey. Excluded were establish ments whose primary product was work pants, jean-cut casual slacks, or women’s apparel. In June 1974, plants manufacturing trousers predominantly from fabrics made U n io n iz a tto n . Plants operating under labor-management agreements employed one-third of the workers in the industry. The extent to which labor-management agreement coverage varied by region, size of establishment, and size of community is indicated in text table 1. The major union in the industry is the Amalgamated Clothing Workers of America (AFL-CIO). Women, 86 percent of the industry’s work force, were employed mostly as sewing-machine S e x a n d o c c u p a tio n . 1See appendix A for scope and method o f survey. Wage date exclude premium pay for overtime and for work on weekends, holidays, and late shifts. Establishments with fewer than 20 workers when data for the universe were compiled were excluded. 2At the time of the survey, the Federal minimum wage for manufacturing industries was $2 an hour. 3Results o f the January 1971 survey were presented in I n d u s tr y W age S u r v e y , M e n 's a n d B o y s ' S e p a r a te T ro u sers, J a n u a ry 1 9 7 1 , BLS Bulletin 1752 (Bureau of Labor Statistics, 1972). 4 Data for approximately 22,500 workers in the Southwest region are not shown separately because a large proportion of these workers were in establishments which did not furnish data and which could not be represented appropriately by other establish ments. Thus, Southwest data collected did not meet BLS publica tion standards for separate presentation, but were included in nationwide estimates. 1 T e x t table 1. characteristics Percent o f workers in establishments operating under labor-management agreements, by selected Plant em ploym ent Region A ll plants U nited States1 .....................................................

Other occupations staffed largely by women included assemblers, final inspectors, garment repairers, thread trimmers and basting pullers, and underpressers. Men, on the other hand, made up a large majority of occupations such as cloth cutters, markers, spreaders, adjusters (sewing-machine repairers), janitors, and work distributors. Regionally, the proportion of men in the work force ranged from 12 percent in the Middle West to 18 percent in the Middle Atlantic. trouser workers ranged from 33 percent in the Southeast to 18 percent in the Great Lakes. The 60,781 women covered by the study averaged $2.59 an hour in June 1974—36 cents an hour less than the 10,305 men ($2.95). The average wage advantage for men ranged from 11 percent in the Border States to 19 percent in the Great Lakes region. Differences in average pay levels for men and women may result from several factors, including differences in the distribution of the sexes among establishments and jobs having disparate pay levels. Also, earnings in some jobs are determined largely by production at peice rates. Variations in incentive earnings for individ uals or sex groupings may be traceable to differences in work experience, effort, work flow, or other factors. Workers in metropolitan areas averaged $2.72 an hour, compared with $2.59 for those in smaller communities. In two of the three regions where data could be published, metropolitan area workers averaged 31 cents more in the Middle Atlantic and 8 cents more in the Southeast; in the Great Lakes, however, plant workers in the smaller com munities held a 3 -cent advantage. Nationwide, average earnings were virtually identical for workers in the 20-249 size-group ($2.65) and for those in Incentive wage systems, typically individual piece rates, were the basis of wage payment for nearly four-fifths of the production workers. The propor tions of workers paid on an incentive basis ranged from about three-fifths in the Great Lakes to four-fifths in the Middle West and Southeast regions (table 18). Sewing-machine operators, final inspectors, machine finish pressers and underpressers were typically paid under incentive wage systems. Occupations usually paid time rates included adjusters (sewing-machine repairers), cutters, jani tors, and work distributors. M e th o d o f w a g e p a y m e n t. Average hourly earnings 5Straight-time average hourly earnings in this bulletin differ in concept from gross average hourly earnings in the Bureau’s monthly hours and earnings series ($2.73 in June 1974). Unlike the latter, estimates presented here exclude premium pay for overtime and for work on weekends, holidays, and late shifts. Average (mean) earnings were calculated by summing individual hourly earnings and dividing by the number of individuals; in the monthly series, the sum of the man-hour totals reported by the establishments in the industry was divided into the reported payroll totals. Estimates of the number o f production workers within scope of the study are intended only as a general guide to the size and composition of the labor force in the survey. They exclude establishments employing fewer than 20 workers and so differ from the monthly series (81,700 in June 1974). Planning for the survey required lists of establishments assembled considerably in advance of data collection. Thus, omitted are (1) establishments new to the industry, (2) establishments originally classified in the men’s and boys’ separate trousers industry but found in other industries at the time of the survey, and (3) establishments manufacturing men’s and boys’ separate trousers but incorrectly classified when the lists were compiled. 6See footnote 4. Straight-time earnings of the 71,086 production and related workers covered by the survey averaged $2.64 an hour in June 1974 (table l).5 Workers in the Southeast, the largest region in terms of employment, averaged $2.60 an hour. Averages in other regions for which data could be published6 were $3.19 in the Middle Atlantic, $2.72 in the Border States, $2.70 in the Great Lakes, and $2.53 in the Middle West. Among the States shown in table 2, produc tion worker averages ranged from $3.15 in Pennsylvania to $2.52 in Mississippi. An average of $2.91 was recorded in Northeast Pennsylvania, the only metropolitan area studied separately. Overall, the average earnings of production workers rose 29 percent between June 1974 and January 1971, the date of the previous study. This increase compared with the 25-percent rise in the Federal minimum and a 24-percent rise in hourly earnings for production workers manufactur ing all nondurable goods. Among the regions, increases for 2 plants with at least 250 employees ($2.64). In three of the four regions for which data could be published, workers in the larger size-group held the wage advantage; in the Middle Atlantic region, however, workers in the 20-249 group averaged 16 cents more than those in the larger group. Establishments having labor-management contracts cov ering a majority of their production workers paid an average of $2.85 an hour, compared with $2.54 for plants with none or a minority covered by such agreements. In the two regions permitting comparisons, the average wage advantage for workers in plants with agreement coverage was 48 cents in the Middle West ($2.69 compared with $2.21) and 34 cents in the Southeast ($2.90 and $2.56). The survey did not isolate the exact influence of any one characteristic as a determinant of wage levels. The interrela tionship of characteristics, such as unionization with size of establishment and size of community, is illustrated in the discussion of industry characteristics. Nearly nine-tenths of the production workers earned from $2 to $3.50 an hour (table 3). Nearly one-fifth of the workers (mostly sewing-machine operators) were paid at or near the $2 Federal minimum wage for manufacturing establishments. Concentrations of workers earning $2 but less than $2.05 an hour were largest in the Great Lakes, Southeast, and Middle West regions, where they constituted between 17 and 26 percent of the work force. Distributions of individual earnings by size of community and union contract status are presented in tables 4 and 5, respectively. A weaker link to the Federal minimum wage was evident in the June 1974 study than in the similar survey of January 1971,7 when slightly under one-fourth of the workers were earning at or near the $1.60 minimum 3 years after it took effect. Despite this decline in the percentage of workers in trouser manufacturing near the Federal mini mum—18 percent—the proportion was higher than the average for all factory workers. For example, only 2 percent of the nonsupervisory workers in the manufactur ing sector had earnings near the $1.60 minimum in 1970. And, 2 years before the $2 minimum was in effect, less than 5 percent of the manufacturing workers were in companies whose average straight-time hourly earnings fell below $2.8 Furthermore, the $1.60 to $2 rise in the Federal minimum in May 1974 appeared to have only a marginal effect on overall wage levels. According to the Bureau’s Employment and Earnings series, the gross average earnings of separate trouser workers increased 2.6 percent from April to May 1974. In February 1968 when the Federal minimum wage increased from $1.40 to $1.60, wage levels rose 6.7 percent from the previous month. Occupational earnings Occupations selected to represent earnings levels for the various activities performed by production and related workers constituted seven-eighths of the work force in June 1974 (table 6). Average earnings ranged from $2.32 an hour for janitors to $3.80 for sewing machine adjusters—two jobs largely staffed by men and paid time rates. Except for machine finish pressers, men were predominant in the four other jobs for which averages above $3 an hour were recorded—machine cloth cutters, cloth cutters and markers, and markers. The 43,292 sewing-machine operators fabricating men’s and boys’ separate trousers averaged $2.59 an hour and were virtually all women. Other numerically important jobs staffed mostly by women (and also predominantly incentive paid) included final inspectors ($2.66), thread trimmers and basting pullers ($2.68), and underpressers ($2.77). Occupational averages were usually highest in the Middle Atlantic region and lowest in the Middle West or Southeast. Averages for virtually all occupations presented for the Middle Atlantic region were between 12 and 37 percent higher than their respective nationwide averages; in the Southeast, most averages were at or lower than their nationwide levels, (text table 2). Occupational pay relationships also varied among States within the same region. In the Southeast, for example, pocket attachers averaged 16 percent more than work distributors in North Carolina, 15 percent more in Georgia, 11 percent more in Tennessee, and 5 percent more in Alabama; but, in Mississippi, work distributors averaged 2 percent more than pocket attachers. Data on occupational earnings also were tabulated by size of community, size of establishment, and labormanagement contract coverage (tables 7-9). Earnings of individual workers varied greatly within the same job and general location (tables 10-17). For some jobs, particularly those paid under incentive systems, earnings were dispersed considerably even within the same establishment. In many instances, the difference between the highest and lowest paid workers in the same establish ment and job exceeded $1.25 an hour. Establishment practices and supplementary wage provisions Data also were obtained on certain establishment prac tices, such as minimum job rates for machine cutters and sewing machine operators, and work schedules and selected supplementary wage provisions for production workers. Included for study were paid holidays, paid vacations, and various health, insurance, and retirement plans. 7See footnote 3. 8Unpublished data derived from table 2 of E m p lo y e e C o m p e n s a tio n in th e P r iv a te N o n f a r m E c o n o m y , 1 9 7 2 , Bulletin 1873 (Bureau of Labor Statistics, 1975). Although not strictly comparable with individual earnings measures for workers in the trousers industry, the essential inference that earnings for relatively few workers in manufacturing as a whole are tied to the Federal minimum is still valid. ra te s. Formally established minimum job rates for machine cutters were reported by 82 of the 164 establishments visited, and for sewing machine operators, in 137 of 164 plants sampled (table 19).

For sewing machine operators, 120 plants reported their job rates (exclusive of incentive payments) to be within 10 cents of the $2 Federal minimum. This proximity to the minimum wage applied to most of the establishments in the Southeast, Great Lakes, and Middle West regions, and to at least two-thirds of the plants in the Middle Atlantic and Border States. vacation pay after 1 year of service and at least 2 weeks’ pay after 2 years. Just under one-half of the workers were in plants providing at least 3 weeks of vacation pay after 15 years of service, Regionally, seven-eighths of the workers in the Middle Atlantic States, in contrast to only about one-fourth of those in the Southeast, received at least three weeks’ vacation. Health , insurance, and retirement plans. More than nine- tenths of the production workers received life, hospitaliza tion, and surgical insurance coverage, typically financed wholly by the employer (table 23). Trouser plants paid at least part of the cost of basic medical insurance for nearly seven-eighths of the workers and major medical insurance for two-thirds. Nationwide, nearly two-fifths of the workers were covered by sickness and accident insurance. Region ally, however, the proportions with such pay protection coverage ranged from approximately nine-tenths in Middle Atlantic and Great Lakes to one-sixth in the Southeast. Establishments employing slightly less than one-half of the production workers provided retirement pension plans (other than Federal social security). These plans, typically financed wholly by the employer, ranged in coverage among regions for which data could be published from one-half of the workers in the Southeast to all workers in the Middle Atlantic States. Scheduled w eekly hours and shift practices. Work schedules of 40 hours per week were in effect in establishments employing nearly all production workers (table 20). Establishments having formal provisions for work on second shifts employed about 25 percent of the production workers; those with provisions for third or late-shifts, 6 percent. At the time of the survey, however, only 1.5 percent of the workers actually were employed on late shifts. Paid holidays. Paid holidays were provided by establish ments employing slightly more than nine-tenths of the production workers (table 21). The most common full-day provision was 8 days per year, applying to 31 percent of the workers, followed by 7 days (25 percent), and 5 days (21 percent). Most of this variation can be explained by regional patterns. Five days was the most common provi sion in the Southeast, whereas 7 or 8 days were usually observed in the Middle Atlantic, Great Lakes, and Middle West regions. Other selected benefits. Nationwide, pay for jury duty was provided by establishments employing 45 percent o f the production workers. Slightly more than one-fifth had provisions for paid funeral leave, and approximately onehalf had daily reporting pay benefits. For all three of these benefits, the provisions varied by region (table 24). Few workers (concentrated totally in the Border States region) received technological severance pay. Paid vacations. Paid vacations, after qualifying periods of service, were provided by establishments employing nearly all of the production workers (table 22). Provisions for a majority of the production workers were 1 week of 4 T a b le 1.

S co p e and Method of Survey Scope of survey composition of the industry’s labor force, rather than as precise measures of employment. The survey included establishments primarily engaged in manufacturing men’s, youth’s, and boys’ separate trousers and slacks (industry 2327 as defined in the 1967 edition of the Standard Industrial Classification Manual, prepared by the U.S. Office of Management and Budget). Establish ments primarily engaged in manufacturing complete suits (industry 2311) and work pants (industry 2328) were excluded. Separate auxiliary units, such as central offices and warehouses, were excluded. Also excluded were plants primarily engaged in manufacturing suit trousers, and jobbers, who perform only entrepreneurial functions, such as buying material, arranging for all manufacturing opera tions to be done by others, and selling the finished products. Establishments studied were selected from those .em ploying 20 workers or more at the time of reference of the data used in compiling the universe lists. Table A-l shows the number of establishments and workers estimated to be within scope of the survey, as well as the number actually studied by the Bureau. Production workers The terms “production workers” and “production and related workers,” used interchangeably in this bulletin, include working supervisors and all nonsupervisory workers engaged in nonoffice activities. Administrative, executive, professional, technical, and office personnel, and forceaccount construction employees, who are used as a separate work force on the firm’s own properties, are excluded. Occupations selected for study Occupational classification was based on a uniform set of job descriptions designed to take account of inter establishment and in terarea variations in duties within the same job. (See appendix B for these descriptions.) The criteria for selection of the occupations were: the number of workers in the occupation; the usefulness of the data in collective bargaining; and appropriate representation of the entire job scale in the industry. Working supervisors, apprentices, learners, beginners, trainees, and handicapped, part-time, temporary, and probationary workers were not reported in the data for selected occupations but were included in the data for all production workers. Method of study Data were obtained by personal visits of the Bureau’s field staff to a representative sample of establishments within scope of the survey. To obtain appropriate accuracy at minimum cost, a greater proportion of large than of small establishments was studied. In combining the data, however, all establishments were given an appropriate weight. All estimates are presented, therefore, as relating to all establishments in the industry, excluding only those below the minimum size at the time of reference of the universe data. Wage data Information on wages relates to 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 piece-work or production bonus systems, and cost-of-living bonuses were included as part of the workers’ regular pay. Nonproduction bonus payments, such as Christmas or yearend bonuses, were excluded. Average (mean) hourly rates or earnings for each occupation or category of workers, such as production workers, were calculated by weighting 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 straight-time salary by normal rather than actual hours. Establishment definition An establishment is defined for this study as a single physical location where manufacturing operations are per formed. An establishment is not necessarily identical with a company, which may consist of one establishment or more. Employment Estimates of the number of workers within scope of the study are intended as a general guide to the size and 33 Table A -l.

A T otal4 Production workers T otal For definition of Northeast Pa. see footnote 1, table 17. 3 Includes only establishments with 20 workers or more at the time of reference of the universe data. Includes executive, professional, office and other workers in addition to the production worker category shown separately. Includes data for regions in addition to those shown sepa rately. Alaska and Hawaii were not included in the study. Labor-management agreements The median designates position; that is, one-half o f the employees surveyed received more than this rate and one-half received less. The middle range is defined by two rates o f pay such that one-fourth o f the employees earned less than the lower o f these rates and one-fourth earned more than the higher rate. Separate wage data are presented, where possible, for establishments that had (1 ) a majority o f the production workers covered by labor-management contracts, and (2 ) none or a minority o f the production workers covered by labor-management contracts. Size of community Tabulations by size o f community pertain to metropoli tan and nonmetropolitan areas. The term “ metropolitan area,” as used in this bulletin, refers to the Standard Method of wage payment Metropolitan Statistical Areas as defined by the U.S. Office o f Management and Budget through April 1973. number o f workers paid under the various time and Tabulations by method o f wage payment relate to the incentive wage systems. Formal rate structures for time Except in New England, a Standard Metropolitan Sta rated workers provide single rates or a range o f rates for tistical Area is defined as a county or group o f contiguous counties which contains at least one city o f 50,000 individual job categories. In the absence o f a formal rate structure, pay rates are determined primarily by the inhabitants or more. Counties contiguous to the one containing such a city are included in a Standard Metropoli tan Statistical Area if, according to certain criteria, they are essentially metropolitan in character and are socially and economically integrated with the central city. In New qualifications o f 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. (Learn ers, 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 o f time.) An experienced worker occasionally may be paid above or below the single rate for special reasons, England, where the city and town are administratively more important than the county, they are the units used in defining Standard Metropolitan Statistical Areas. 34 but such payments are exceptions. Range-of-rate plans are those in which the minimum, maximum, or both o f these rates paid experienced workers for the same job are specified. Specific rates o f individual workers within the range may be determined by merit, length o f service, or a combination o f these. Incentive workers are classified under Death benefits are included as a form o f life insurance. Sickness and accident insurance is limited to that type o f 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 pre sented for all such plans to which the employer contributes at least a part o f the cost. However, in New York and New Jersey, where temporary disability insurance laws require employer contributions,1 plans are included only if the employer (1 ) contributes more than is legally required, or (2 ) provides benefits which exceed the requirements o f the piecework or bonus plans. Piecework is work for which a predetermined rate is paid for each unit o f output. Production bonuses are for production over a quota or for completion o f a task in less than standard time. Minimum rates law. Tabulations o f paid sick leave are limited to formal plans which provide full pay or a proportion o f the worker’s pay during absence from work because o f illness; informal Minimum job rates are the lowest formal rates estab lished for experienced time-rated workers employed as cutters and sewing-machine operators. Excluded are incen tive paid workers and hourly-rated learners who eventually will be on an incentive basis. arrangements have been omitted. Separate tabulations are provided for (1 ) plans which provide full pay and no waiting period, and (2 ) plans providing either partial pay or Scheduled weekly hours a waiting period. Medical insurance refers to plans providing for complete or partial payment o f doctors’ fees. Such plans may be Data on weekly hours refer to the predominant work schedule for full-time production workers employed on the day shift. underwritten by a commercial insurance company or a nonprofit organization, or they may be a form o f selfinsurance. Major medical insurance, sometimes referred to as Supplementary benefits extended medical or catastrophe insurance, includes plans designed to cover employees for sickness or injury involving an expense which exceeds the normal coverage o f hospitali Supplementary benefits in an establishment were con sidered applicable to all production workers i f they applied to one-half or more o f such workers in the establishment. Similarly, i f fewer than one-half o f the workers were covered, the benefit was considered nonexistent in the establishment. Because o f length-of-service and other eligi bility requirements, the proportion o f workers actually receiving the benefits may be smaller than estimated. zation, medical, and surgical plans. Tabulations o f retirement pensions are limited to plans which provide regular payments for the remainder o f the retiree’s life. Data are presented separately for retirement severance pay (one payment or several over a specified period o f time) made to employees on retirement. Estab lishments providing both retirement severance payments and retirement pensions to employees were considered as having both retirement pensions and retirement severance plans; however, establishments having optional plans pro viding employees a choice o f either retirement severance payments or pensions were considered as having only retirement pension benefits. Paid holidays. Paid holiday provisions relate to full-day and half-day holidays provided annually. Paid vacations. The summaries o f vacation plans are limited to formal arrangements and exclude informal plans where by time o ff with pay is granted at the discretion o f the employer or supervisor. Payments not on a time basis were converted; for example, a payment o f 2 percent o f annual earnings was considered the equivalent o f 1 week’s pay. The periods o f service for which data are presented represent the most common practices, but they do not necessarily reflect individual establishment provisions for progression. Paid funeral and jury-duty leave. Data for paid funeral and jury-duty leave relate to formal plans which provide at least partial payment for time lost as a result o f attending funerals o f specified family members or serving as a juror. For example, changes in proportions indicated at 10 years Technological severance pay.

O ccupational Descriptions The primary purpose o f 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 o f payroll titles and different work arrangements from establishment to establishment and from area to area. This permits the grouping o f occupational wage rates representing comparable job content. Because o f this emphasis on interestablishment and interarea comparability o f occupational content, the Bureau’s job descriptions may differ significantly from those in use in individual establishments or those prepared for other purposes. In applying these job descriptions, the Bureau’s field staff is instructed to exclude working supervisors, apprentices, learners, beginners, trainees, and handicapped, part-time, temporary, and proba tionary workers.
