Unlike the latter, the estimate presented here excludes premium pay for overtime and for work on weekends, holidays, and late shifts. Average 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 establishments in the industry was divided into the reported payroll totals. The Bureau's monthly series for paper and pulp, unlike this survey, also includes establishments primarily engaged in manufacturing building paper and building board from woodpulp and other fibrous materials. The monthly series also includes data for workers in converted paper products departments of paper and paperboard mills; in this study, data for these workers are excluded from the tabulations for the regular pulp, paper, and paperboard depart ments and are shown separately. 10 See Industry Wage Survey: Pulp, Paper, and Paperboard Mills (BLS Bulletin 1341, 1962), p. 8. 11 The Bureau's series on current wage developments pro vides monthly reports on general wage changes in major collective bargaining situations, including those for workers in pulp, paper, and paperboard mills. 9 4 w ere rep o rted in the Southeast and Southw est reg io n s.
