P reface This bulletin summarizes the results of a Bureau of Labor Statistics survey of wages and related benefits in the wood household furniture, except upholstered, manu facturing industry in October 1971. A similar survey was conducted in October 1968 (BLS Bulletin 1651). Separate releases were issued earlier for Chicago, EH.; Evansville, Ind.-Ky.; Gardner, Mass.; Grand Rapids, Mich.; Hickory-Statesville, N.C.; Jamestown, N.Y.; Los AngelesLong Beach and Anaheim-Santa Ana-Garden Grove, Calif.; Louisville, Ky.-Ind.; Martinsville, Va.; Miami and Ft. Lauderdale-Hollywood, Fla.; Winston-Salem-High Point, N.C.; and the States of Arkansas, Indiana, and Tennessee. Copies of these releases are available from the Bureau of Labor Statistics, Washington, D.C. 20212, or any of its regional offices. This study was conducted in the Bureau’s Office of Wages and Industrial Relations. Dale P. Granata of the Division of Occupational Wage Structures prepared the analysis in this bulletin. Field work for the survey was directed by the Assistant Regional Directors for Operations. Other reports available from the Bureau’s program of industry wage studies, as well as the addresses of the Bureau’s regional offices, are listed at the end of this bulletin. iii C o n te n ts Page Summary ................................................................................................................................

Less than one-fifth of the workers were in plants manufacturing primarily dining room and kitchen furniture (except kitchen cabinets). Most of the remaining workers were distributed about equally among plants making radio, television, and phonograph cabinets; other living room, library, and hall furniture; or kitchen cabinets. Establishments making more than one type of furni ture employed slightly over one-half of the industry’s production workers. Bedroom furniture and dining room and kitchen furniture (except kitchen cabinets) frequently were made in the same establishments. Straight-time earnings of production and related workers in the wood household furniture (except upholstered) manufacturing industry averaged $2.40 an hour in October 1971.1 Men, three-fourths of the 127,232 workers covered by the BLS survey, averaged $2.47 an hour; women averaged $2.18. More than nine-tenths of the workers earned between $1.60 and $3.50 an hour. Earnings of the middle half of the workers were between $1.99 and $2.69. Regionally, earnings averaged from $2.11 in the Border States and $2.12 in the Southwest to $3.06 in the Pacific region. Workers in the Southeast, numerically the largest group, averaged $2.19. The earnings of workers in 11 areas and 3 States important to the industry also were surveyed separately.2 Nationwide and among regions, earnings levels varied by size of community, size of establishment, labor-man agement contract coverage, occupation, and by type of furniture manufactured. Among the production occupations tabulated separately, average hourly earnings ranged from $2.08 for planer operators who do not set up their own machines to $2.97 for plastic top installers. Furniture assemblers (except chairs), numerically the largest occupation studied, averaged $2.47. Their earnings levels varied by type of assembly. Paid holidays and paid vacations after qualifying periods of service were provided for at least nine-tenths of the industry’s production workers. Typical vacation provisions were 1 week of vacation pay after 1 year of service and 2 weeks after 5 years. Life, hospitalization, surgical and medical insurance, paid for at least in part by the employer, applied to a large majority of the workers. Retirement pension plans (other than social security) were available to three-fifths of the workers. Location. The Southeast, by far the largest region in terms of employment, contained nearly two-fifths of the production workers. Another one-sixth of the workers were in the Great Lakes region and one-eighth in the Border States. None of the other regions had as much as one-tenth of the industry’s work force. The types of furniture manufactured varied in incidence among the regions. Bedroom furniture was the principal product of establishments employing about one-half of the workers in the Southeast and Southwest and two-thirds in the Border States. Slightly less than one-half of the employees in the Middle Atlantic region were in plants chiefly producing kitchen cabinets; in the Great Lakes region, a majority of the workers were employed by factories engaged primarily in making living room furniture (including radio, television, and phonograph cabinets). Establishments located outside metropolitan areas4 employed slightly more than three-fifths of the industry’s work force. Proportions of workers in smaller communities amounted to seven-eighths in New England, 1 See appendix A for scope and method of survey. Earnings data in this bulletin exclude premium pay for overtime and for work on weekends, holidays, and late shifts. 2 For definitions of regions, see appendix A, table A-l, footnote 1; for definitions of areas, see footnote 1, tables 11-15, 17-21, and 23. Industry characteristics Products. The survey covered establishments employing 20 workers or more and engaged primarily in manu facturing nonupholstered wood household furniture.3 Nearly two-fifths of the 127,232 production workers were employed in establishments chiefly producing 3 Smaller establishments are estimated to employ about 7 percent of the industry’s work force. 4 Standard Metropolitan Statistical Areas as defined by the U.S. Office of Management and Budget through January 1968. 1 Text table 1. Percent of workers in establishments about four-fifths in both the Border States and the Southeast, one-half in the Great Lakes region, and from two-fifths to about one-fifth in the remaining regions. operating under labor-management agreements, by selected characteristics Among the 11 areas of industry concentration surveyed separately, the largest number of workers were in Hickory-Statesville, N.C. (11,385), Winston-SalemHigh Point, N.C. (8,192), and Martinsville, Va. (8,104). The first two areas, together, accounted for two-fifths of all workers in the Southeast region, and Martinsville, Va., contained slightly over two-fifths of the workers in the Border States. The smallest employment among the 11 areas were recorded in Jamestown, N.Y., Miami and Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood, Fla., and Evansville, Ind.-Ky., each with about 1,100 workers. The three States studied separately contained major portions of the industry’s labor force in their respective regions. Tennessee (7,869 workers) accounted for onesixth of the employment in the Southeast, Indiana (10,566) for one-half in the Great Lakes region, and Arkansas (6,163) for two-thirds in the Southwest.

Great Lakes ......... 1968.6 This increase equaled the rise in the BLS Consumer Price Index over the same period, but fell below the 20 percent increase in average hourly earnings recorded for workers in all durable goods manu facturing.7 The rise in average earnings in wood house hold furniture manufacturing was highest in the Great Lakes (21 percent) and lowest in the Pacific region (8 percent). In the remaining regions, the advances ranged between 14 and 17 percent. Workers in the Southeast averaged $2.19 an hour in October 1971, slightly more than those in the Border States ($2.11) and Southwest ($2.12). Averages in the remaining regions were $2.53 in New England, $2.71 in U n io n iza tio n . E stablishm ents that had labormanagement contracts covering a majority of their production workers employed approximately one-third of the work force. The proportions amounted to one-sixth in the Border States; about one-fifth in the Southeast; two-fifths in New England and the South west; slightly over one-half in the Great Lakes region; three-fifths in the Pacific region; and two-thirds in the Middle Atlantic States. Text table 1 illustrates the extent of labor-management contract coverage by size of establishment and size of community within the major regions. The United Brotherhood of Carpenters and Joiners of America and the United Furniture Workers of America (both AFL-CIO) were the major unions in the industry. 5The straight-time average hourly earnings in this bulletin differ in concept from the gross average hourly earnings published in the Bureau’s monthly hours and earnings series ($2.60 in October 1971). Unlike the latter, the estimates presented here exclude 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. Neither the October 1971 wage survey nor the Bureau’s monthly series included retroactive adjustments for wage increases scheduled to become effective during the 90-day wage-price-rent freeze which ended November 14,1971. The estimate of the number of production workers within scope of the study is intended only as a general guide to the size and composition of the labor force included in the survey. It differs from that published in the monthly series (150,600 in October 1971) by the exclusion of establishments employing fewer than 20 workers. The advance planning necessary to make the survey required the use of lists of establishments assembled considerably in advance of data collection. Thus, establishments new to the industry are omitted, as are establishments originally classified as wood household furniture establishments, but found to be in other industries at the time of the survey. 6 See Industry Wage Survey: Wood Household Furniture, Except Upholstered, October 1968, Bulletin 1651 (Bureau of Labor Statistics, 1970). 7 Based on the Bureau’s Hourly Earnings Index. Method o f wage payment. Slightly over four-fifths of the production workers were paid time rates. This group was divided about evenly between workers paid under formal plans having established rates for specified jobs and those paid according to their individual qualifications (table 25). The largest proportion of workers under incentive wage systems (about two-fifths) was found in both the Southwest and Great Lakes regions. Average hourly earnings Straight-time earnings of the 127,232 production and related workers covered by the survey averaged $2.40 an hour in October 1971 (table l).5 This rate was 16 percent higher than the average of $2.07 recorded in a similar survey conducted by the Bureau in October Plant employment 2 by each region. For example, the three regions which had the highest averages employed two-thirds of all workers in plants primarily manufacturing kitchen cabinets, but employed slightly less than one-sixth of the bedroom furniture workers. In considering the wage differences noted above and in the following discussion of occupational earnings, it must be emphasized that this study did not isolate the influence of each factor (e.g., community size, establish ment size, labor-management contract coverage) as a determinant of wages. The interrelationship of some of these factors, however, is pointed out in the discussion of industry characteristics. Men, as a group, averaged $2.47 an hour and women $2.18. This general relationship also was found in each of the selected regions; differences ranged from 14 cents in the Southwest to 40 cents in New England. Differences in average pay levels for men and women may be the result of several factors, including variation in the distribution of the sexes among establishments and also among jobs with different pay levels. Differences in averages for men and women in the same job and area may reflect minor differences in duties. Job descriptions used in classifying workers in wage surveys usually are more generalized than those used in individual establishments, because allowance must be made for minor differences among establishments in specific duties performed. Earnings of all but 6 percent of the production workers were within a range of $1.60 to $3.50 an hour; the middle half earned between $1.99 and $2.69 (table 2). As indicated in the following tabulation, the percent of workers earning less than specified amounts varied widely by region: the Great Lakes, $2.76 in the Middle Atlantic States, and $3.06 in the Pacific region. Workers in metropolitan areas averaged $2.61 an hour—33 cents more than those in smaller communities. A similar relationship held in the New England, Border States, Great Lakes, Southeast and Pacific regions, with the differentials ranging from 44 cents to 12-cents-anhour. In the Middle Atlantic and the Southwest, however, the wage advantage was in favor of workers in nonmetropolitan areas and averaged 17 cents and 8 cents, respectively. Among the States and areas of industry concentration studied separately, average hourly earnings ranged from $3.65 in Louisville, Ky.-Ind., to $2.06 in Tennessee and $2.03 in Martinsville, Va. (tables 10-23). In HickoryStatesville and Winston-Salem—High Point, N.C., the two largest furniture centers, workers averaged $2.27 and $2.28, respectively. Nationwide, workers in establishments employing 20-249 workers averaged $2.53 an hour compared with $2.30 for those in larger establishments. The lower average for larger establishments reflects a dispropor tionate concentration of workers in these plants in the three regions having the lowest average wage rate. Nearly four-fifths of the workers in establishments employing 250 workers or more were in the Southeast, Southwest, and Border States. In contrast, a little over one-third of the workers in smaller establishments were in these regions. Among the two establishment size groups, workers in larger factories had an average wage advantage of 59 cents an hour in the Middle Atlantic, 17 cents in the Pacific, and 14 cents or less in the Southwest, Southeast, and New England. In the Great Lakes region, there was no difference but in the Border States, workers in the smaller factories had a 20-cent advantage. Workers in establishments that had labor-management agreements covering a majority of their production workers averaged more than those in nonunion establish ments. This general relationship existed in all regions, except the Southwest, but the differential was not very pronounced in the Middle Atlantic States (8 cents) or in the Sbutheast (2 cents). Based on the principal type of wood furniture manufactured, wage levels ranged from $3.05 an hour in plants making kitchen cabinets to $2.22 in bedroom furniture plants. In other establishments, earnings averaged $2.31 for dining room and kitchen furniture (except cabinets); $2.40 for living room, library, and hall furniture (except radio, television, and phonograph cabinets), and $2.46 for radio, television, and phono graph cabinets. The differences in average earnings by product line reflect, in part, the proportions of workers contributed United S ta te s ........... Men ....................... W o m e n ..................

Hourly earnings distribution in selected Nationwide averages for these jobs ranged from $2.08 for planer operators who do not set up their own machines to $2.97 for plastic-top installers. Furniture assemblers (except chairs), accounting for 12 percent of the work force, averaged $2.47 an hour. Their earnings levels varied by type of assembly: $2.59 for complete furniture pieces (case goods), $2.41 for complete furni ture pieces (other than case goods), and $2.34 for subassemblies. Furniture sanders, hand and m achineeach accounting for about 6 percent of the production workers—averaged $2.20 and $2.41, respectively. Table 24 presents regional and locality wage levels for men in selected occupations as a percent of the nationwide average for all men production workers ($2.47). For most of the jobs shown, regional averages usually exceeded the nationwide average by 5 to 20 percent in New England, 5 to 25 percent in the Middle Atlantic and Great Lakes States, and 20 to 40 percent in the Pacific region. Averages in the Southern regions and the Border States were typically below the nationwide level. Occupational averages also varied considerably among the areas selected for separate study, even within the same region. In most regions where comparisons were possible, occupational averages were usually higher in metro politan than nonmetropolitan areas (table 4); in establishments employing 250 workers or more than in smaller establishments (table 5); and in union than in nonunion establishments (table 6). When comparisons, however, were limited to the same establishment size group and same community size, the pattern between union and nonunion averages was mixed (tables 7 and 8). For example, in Southeastern factories having 20-249 employees, occupational wage levels in union establishments nearly always exceeded those in nonunion establishments, typically by 5 to 25 percent. In establishments having 250 employees or more, this relationship was reversed. Also, in metropolitan areas of the Southeast, union plants had the wage advantage for 8 of the 10 occupations permitting comparison, but in nonmetropolitan areas, the averages in favor of union establishments dropped to 1 out of 12. As indicated in table 9, incentive workers typically had higher average earnings than time rated workers in the same occupation. To illustrate, the average wage advantage of men incentive workers in the Great Lakes region ranged from about 10 to 25 percent in 11 out of 12 occupational comparisons. Earnings of individuals performing similar tasks varied considerably within the same area (tables 10-23). Earn ings of the highest paid workers frequently exceeded those of the lowest paid workers in the same job and area by as much as $1 an hour. Thus, some workers in occupations, Hickory-Statesville, N.C.

Text table 2 illustrates the overlap in individual earnings in Hickory-Statesville, N.C., for men furniture assemblers and women hand sanders, despite a 53-cent-an-hour difference in the averages for the two jobs. Establishment practices and supplementary wage provisions Data also were obtained on certain establishment practices, including shift differentials for production workers, and work schedules, and selected supple mentary benefits, such as paid holidays and paid vacations, and various health, insurance, and retirement plans for both production workers and office workers. Scheduled weekly hours and shift provisions. Weekly work schedules of 40 hours were in effect in establish ments employing seven-tenths of the production workers in October 1971 (table 26). Similar schedules prevailed in all regions, except New England and the Border States, where slightly less than two-thirds and one-half of the workers, respectively, had schedules exceeding 40 hours. For officeworkers, 40-hour schedules were pre dominant in each region. Shorter schedules were found most frequently in the Middle Atlantic States where they applied to about one-sixth of the officeworkers. Pay provisions for second shift work were reported by plants accounting for slightly more than one-half of the production workers; for third or other late shifts, the proportion was one-fifth (table 27). Less than 5 percent of the production workers, however, were actually employed on late shifts at the time of the survey. 4 Paid holidays. Establishments providing paid holidays employed nine-tenths of the production workers and nearly all of the office workers (table 28). The propor tions of production workers receiving paid holidays were three-fourths in the Border States, seven-eighths in the Southeast, and nine-tenths or more in the other regions. Holiday provisions for production workers typically allowed for 6 to 8 days annually in most regions; in the Southeast and Border States, 3 to 6 days were pre dominant and in the Middle Atlantic, 8 to 11 days. Officeworkers usually were covered by similar provisions in most regions. insurance to seven-tenths, and basic medical insurance to four-fifths. Regionally, the proportions of production workers in establishments providing such benefits as sickness and accident insurance and major medical insurance varied substantially. For example, nearly all of the production employees in the Southwest and the Pacific region were in establishments providing major medical insurance, in contrast to one-third of the workers in the Middle Atlantic States. Retirement pension plans, in addition to Federal social security, were provided for three-fifths of the production workers. The proportions of employees covered by pension benefits ranged from slightly over two-fifths in the Southwest to four-fifths in the Border States. Retirement severance pay was rarely found in the industry. The proportions of officeworkers provided various health, insurance, and retirement benefits were generally similar to those for production workers. A notable exception to this was paid sick leave which applied to 34 percent of the office personnel but to only 5 percent of the production workers. Sickness and accident insur ance, on the other hand, was more commonly available to production workers than to officeworkers. Paid vacations. Paid vacations, after qualifying periods of service, were provided by establishments employing nearly all of the industry’s production workers and officeworkers (table 29). Typical provisions for produc tion workers were 1 week of vacation pay after 1 year of service and 2 weeks after 5 years. Provisions for at least 3 weeks’ pay, most frequently recorded in the Middle Atlantic, Great Lakes, and Pacific regions, applied to nearly three-tenths of the workers after 10 years and to slightly more than two-fifths after longer periods of service. Officeworkers typically were provided 1 week of vacation after 1 year of service and 2 weeks after 3 years; the incidence of 3-week vacation plans was similar to that reported for production workers. Other selected benefits. Funeral leave pay was available to one-fourth of the production workers and one-third of the officeworkers; provisions for jury duty pay applied to two-fifths of the workers in both groups (table 31). Coverage by these benefits varied widely by region; for example, jury duty pay was provided to about one-fifth of the production workers in the Southwest and Pacific States, compared with slightly more than three-fifths in the Border States. Plans for technological severance pay were virtually nonexistent in the industry. Health, insurance, and retirement plans.

S co p e and M e th o d o f S u rve y Scope of survey The survey included establishments engaged primarily in manufacturing wood household furniture (except upholstered) commonly used in dwellings (SIC 2511 as defined in the 1967 edition of the Standard Industrial Classification Manual, prepared by the U.S. Office of Management and Budget). Manufacturers of wood kitchen cabinets on a factory basis and camp furniture were included. 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 studied by the Bureau, as well as the number estimated to be in the industry during the payroll period studied, are shown in table A -l. Products The classification of establishments by product was based on the principal type of furniture manufactured. For example, if the value of an establishment’s produc tion was 40 percent bedroom furniture, and 30 percent dining room and kitchen furniture, and 30 percent living room, library, and hall furniture, all workers in that establishment were classified under bedroom furniture. turing operations are performed. An establishment is not necessarily identical with the company, which may consist of one establishment or more. Employment Estimates of the number of workers within the scope of the study are intended as a general guide to the size and composition of the industry’s labor force, rather than precise measures of employment. Production workers and officeworkers The terms “production workers” and “production and related workers” as used in this bulletin, include working foremen and all nonsupervisory workers engaged in nonoffice activities. Administrative, execu tive, professional, and technical personnel, and forceaccount construction employees, who were utilized as a separate work force on the firm’s own properties, were excluded. The term “officeworkers” includes all nonsupervisory officeworkers 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 descrip tions.) The occupations were chosen for their numerical importance, their usefulness in collective bargaining, or their representativeness of the entire job scale in the industry. Working supervisors, apprentices, learners, beginners, trainees, and handicapped, part-time, tempo rary, 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. The survey was conducted on a sample basis. 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 their 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 Establishment definition Information on wages relates to straight-time hourly earnings, excluding premium pay for overtime and for work on weekends, holidays, and late shifts.

Regional data include areas in addition to those shown separately. 2 For d e fin itio n o f the selected areas, see footnote 1, tables 11-15,17-21, and 23. 3 Includes only establishments w ith 20 workers or more at the tim e o f reference of the universe data. 4 Includes executive, professional, and other workers excluded from the production and o ffice w orker categories shown separately. 5 Includes data fo r regions in addition to those shown separately. Alaska and Hawaii were not included in the study. 52 payments, such as those resulting from piecework or production bonus systems and cost-of-living bonuses, were included as part of the workers’ 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 produc tion 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. 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 occasionally may be paid above Or below the single rate for special reasons, but such payments are exceptions. Range of rate plans are those in which 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 combina tion of various concepts of merit and length of service. Incentive workers are classified under piecework or bonus plans. Piecework is work for which a predeter mined rate is paid for each unit of output. Production bonuses are based on production in excess of a quota or for completion of a task in less than standard time. Size of community Tabulations by size of community pertain to metro politan and nonmetropolitan areas. The term “metro politan area,” as used in this bulletin, refers to the Standard Metropolitan Areas as defined by the U.S. Office of Management and Budget through January 1968. 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 a Standard Metropolitan 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 England, where the city and town are administratively more important than the county, they are the units used in defining Standard Metro politan Statistical Areas. Scheduled weekly hours Data on weekly hours refer to the predominant work schedule for full-time production workers (or officeworkers) employed on the day shift, regardless of sex. Shift provisions Shift provisions relate to the policies of establish ments either currently operating late shifts or having formal provisions covering late shift work. Supplementary wage provisions Supplementary benefits were treated statistically. If formal provisions were applicable to half or more of the production workers (or officeworkers) in an establish ment, the benefits were considered applicable to all such 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 smaller than estimated. Labor-management agreements Separate wage data are presented, where possible, for establishments that had (1) a majority of the production workers covered by labor-management contracts, and (2) none or a minority of the production workers covered by labor-management contracts. Method of wage payment Paid holidays. Paid holiday provisions relate to full-day and half-day holidays provided annually. Tabulations by method of wage payment relate to the number of workers paid under the various time and incentive wage systems. Formal rate structures for time-rated workers provide single rates 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 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 the supervisor. Payments not on a time basis were converted; for example, a payment of 2 53 percent of annual earnings was considered the equivalent of 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. For example, the changes in proportions indicated at 10 years o f service may include changes which occurred between 5 and 10 years. illness; informal arrangements have been omitted. Separate tabulations are provided according to (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 providing for com plete or partial payment of doctors’ fees. Such plans may be underwritten by a commercial insurance com pany or a nonprofit organization, or they may be a form of self-insurance. Major medical insurance, sometimes referred to as extended medical insurance, includes the plans designed to cover employees in case of sickness or injury involving an expense which exceeds the normal coverage of hospitalization, medical, and surgical plans. Tabulations of retirement pensions are limited to plans which provide regular payments for the remainder of 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 retire m en t. Establishments providing both retirement severance payments and retirement pensions to employees were considered as having both retirement pensions and retirement severance plans. Establishments having optional plans providing employees a choice of either retirement severance payments or pensions were considered as having only retirement pension benefits. H ealth , insurance and retirem ent plans. Data are pre sented for health, insurance, pension, and retirement severance plans for which all or a part of the cost is borne by the employer, excluding programs 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. Death benefits are included as a form of life insurance. Sickness and accident insurance 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 tempo rary disability insurance laws require employer contribu tions,1 plans are included only if the employer (1) con tributes more than is legally required or (2) provides the employees with benefits which exceed 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 worker’s pay during absence from work because of Paid funeral and ju ry-d u ty 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 of attending funerals of specified family members or serving as a juror. Technological severance pay. Data refer to formal plans providing for payments to employees permanently separated from the company through no fault of their own. 1 The temporary disability insurance laws in California and Rhode Island do not require employer contributions. 54 Appendix B. Occupational 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 of 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 of 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 are instructed to exclude working supervisors; apprentices; learners; beginners; trainees; handicapped, part-time, temporary, and probationary workers. Complete engaged in articles of television, from wood Plant occupations Assembler, furniture (except chairs) (B ed assembler; table assembler; cabinet assembler; back maker; fram e maker) C om p lete furniture pieces (other than case goods)—Workers engaged in assembling complete articles o f furniture (other than case goods), such as tables, beds, and occasional pieces, from wood parts and/or subassemblies. Assembles and fastens together wooden parts or assemblies to form sections, frames, or complete articles of furniture (except chairs). Work involves m ost o f the follow ing: Trimming joints to fit, using handtools; applying glue to joints or edges o f stock and putting parts or sections together; placing assembled parts in clamp until glue has dried or reinforcing joints with dowels, screws, staples, or nails; and attaching glue blocks, corner blocks, drawer guides, tops, molding, shelves, dust bottoms, or skids with nails, screws, glue or staples. May also drill holes and attach parts o f drawer locks. This classification excludes: (1) Cabinet makers who, in addition to assembling furniture, are responsible for shaping wood parts from rough stock (2) workers assembling relatively inexpensive furniture that is nailed or glued together and sold unfinished; and (3) workers who specialize in attaching parts such as doors, hinges, knobs, skids, and baffle screens, in fitting drawers, doors, and trays into furniture, or in assembling small parts such as desk trays, card file boxes and display pedestals.
