This bulletin focuses on occupational earnings. The NCS replaced the Occupational Compensation Survey. The major difference between these two surveys is that the Occupational Compensation Survey used the same preselected list of occupations for all localities. The NCS uses a probability-based sample of establishments and occupations that are intended to represent more fully the employment patterns and occupational mix of every locality. This bulletin presents aggregated pay data from the metropolitan and nonmetropolitan local area surveys conducted in the East North Central census division. (See Technical Note.) It provides estimates of occupational pay for the census division, as well as selected data by worker and establishment characteristics. NCS bulletins are published for each of the nine census divisions: New England, Middle Atlantic, East North Central, West North Central, South Atlantic, East South Central, West South Central, Mountain, and Pacific.

The bulletin highlights average (mean) hourly pay for workers by seven characteristics: • • • • • • • $13.07. Table 2 provides an overview of average pay data by worker and establishment characteristics in metropolitan and nonmetropolitan areas. For example, white-collar workers in metropolitan areas averaged $18.98 per hour, blue-collar workers averaged $14.43, and service workers $9.70. Corresponding averages in nonmetropolitan areas were $18.37, $13.28, and $9.91. See the Technical Note for definitions of metropolitan and nonmetropolitan areas. Among the nine census divisions, average earnings were generally highest in the New England, Middle Atlantic, and Pacific regions. Average earnings for all census divisions, and for other characteristics, can be seen in tables 1 and 2. Full-time, part-time, and combined average pay rates for occupations in private industry and in State and local governments are shown in tables 3, 4, and 5. These tables contain wage rates and mean weekly hours for individual occupations and for the major occupational groups. For example, all registered nurses averaged $20.84 per hour (table 3). Registered nurses in private industry averaged $20.61 (table 4), while their counterparts in State and local government averaged $22.26 per hour (table 5). Laborers, except construction, averaged $10.52 in private industry and $13.09 in State and local government. Janitors and cleaners, a service occupation, averaged $9.06 in private industry and $11.77 in State and local government. Earnings by occupational group and work level are shown in table 6. Generally, earnings increased as work levels became higher. For example, mean hourly earnings for white-collar workers ranged from $7.11 at level 1 to $72.68 at level 15. For blue-collar workers mean hourly earnings ranged from $8.44 at level 1 to $27.13 at level 10. Mean hourly earnings for service workers ranged from $6.87 at level 1 to $27.14 at level 10. The Bureau applies an “occupational leveling” technique with 10 criteria to determine the work level. The Technical Note has more information on occupational leveling. Table A in the Technical Note shows the number of workers represented by the surveys in the East North Central census division by major occupational group, such as professional specialty and technical, sales, and transportation and material moving. Table B shows the number of establishments studied in the East North Central census division by employment size; more establishments were studied in the group having 100 to 499 workers than in any other size category. Private industry and State and local government Metropolitan and nonmetropolitan areas Selected occupations and major occupational groups Full-time and part-time status Bargaining status Size of establishment Work level Wages in the East North Central census division averaged $15.75 per hour during 2000. Workers in private industry in the East North Central region averaged $15.03 per hour, while pay of workers in State and local government averaged $20.91 per hour. The nationwide hourly average for all workers covered by the survey was $15.80. Table 1 provides an overview of average pay for workers in private industry and State and local government by selected worker and establishment characteristics. For example, white-collar workers in private industry averaged $17.93 per hour; blue-collar workers averaged $14.17; and service workers, $8.43. Corresponding averages in State and local government were $23.98, $16.54, and $15.09. Generally, average hourly earnings for private industry workers were lower than those for State and local government workers. Part of this difference can be explained by differences in the occupational and industrial mix of the two sectors. For example, professional specialty and technical occupations are more prevalent in State and local government than in private industry. Conversely, few State and local government workers are in goods-producing industries other than construction. Full-time workers in the East North Central region averaged $16.55 per hour, while part-time workers averaged $9.00. In private industry, full-time workers averaged $15.84 an hour and part-time workers averaged $8.69. For workers in State and local government, average hourly pay was $21.39 and $13.22, respectively. Full-time or parttime designation is based on the employer’s definition of those terms. Workers in the largest establishments, those with 2,500 or more employees, earned $22.29 per hour. Workers in the smallest establishments (1 to 99 employees) averaged 1 TABLE 1.

They include incentive pay, cost-of-living adjustments, and hazard pay. Excluded are premium pay for overtime, vacations, and holidays; nonproduction bonuses; and tips. The mean is computed by totaling the pay of all workers and dividing by the number of workers, weighted by hours. 2 In this census division, collection was conducted between June 1999 and April 2001. The average reference period was July 2000. 3 The relative standard error (RSE) is the standard error expressed as a percent of the estimate. It can be used to calculate a "confidence interval" around a sample estimate. For more information about RSEs, see Technical Note. 4 Employees are classified as working either a full-time or a part-time schedule based on the definition used by each establishment. Union workers are those whose wages are determined through collective bargaining. Wages of time workers are based solely on hourly rate or salary; incentive workers are those whose wages are at least partially based on productivity payments such as piece rates, commissions, and production bonuses. 5 A classification system including about 480 individual occupations is used to cover all workers in the civilian economy. See Technical Note for more information. 6 Classification of establishments into goods-producing and service-producing industries applies to private industry only. 7 Estimates include private establishments employing 1 to 99 workers and State and local government establishments employing 50 to 99 workers. 8 Data are presented for metropolitan and nonmetropolitan area divisions as well as nine census divisions. See Technical Note for a list of survey areas in each census division and the States comprising the nine census divisions.

They include incentive pay, cost-of-living adjustments, and hazard pay. Excluded are premium pay for overtime, vacations, and holidays; nonproduction bonuses; and tips. The mean is computed by totaling the pay of all workers and dividing by the number of workers, weighted by hours. 2 Total includes full-time and part-time workers. Employees are classified as working either a full-time or a part-time schedule based on the definition used by each establishment. Therefore, a worker with a 35-hour-per-week schedule might be considered a full-time employee in one establishment, but classified as part-time in another firm, where a 40-hour week is the minimum full-time schedule. 3 In this census division, collection was conducted between June 1999 and April 2001. The average reference period was July 2000. 4 A classification system including about 480 individual occupations is used to cover all workers in the civilian economy. For more information, see Technical Note. 5 The relative standard error (RSE) is the standard error expressed as a percent of the estimate. It can be used to calculate a "confidence interval" around a sample estimate. For more information about RSEs, see Technical Note. NOTE: Dashes indicate that no data were reported or that data did not meet publication criteria, and n.e.c. means "not elsewhere classified." Overall occupational groups may include data for categories not shown separately. 11 TABLE 4.

They include incentive pay, cost-of-living adjustments, and hazard pay. Excluded are premium pay for overtime, vacations, and holidays; nonproduction bonuses; and tips. The mean is computed by totaling the pay of all workers and dividing by the number of workers, weighted by hours. 2 Total includes full-time and part-time workers. Employees are classified as working either a full-time or a part-time schedule based on the definition used by each establishment. Therefore, a worker with a 35-hour-per-week schedule might be considered a full-time employee in one establishment, but classified as part-time in another firm, where a 40-hour week is the minimum full-time schedule. 3 In this census division, collection was conducted between June 1999 and April 2001. The average reference period was July 2000. 4 A classification system including about 480 individual occupations is used to cover all workers in the civilian economy. For more information, see Technical Note. 5 The relative standard error (RSE) is the standard error expressed as a percent of the estimate. It can be used to calculate a "confidence interval" around a sample estimate. For more information about RSEs, see Technical Note. NOTE: Dashes indicate that no data were reported or that data did not meet publication criteria, and n.e.c. means "not elsewhere classified." Overall occupational groups may include data for categories not shown separately. 17 TABLE 5.

Employees are classified as working either a full-time or a part-time schedule based on the definition used by each establishment. Therefore, a worker with a 35-hour-per-week schedule might be considered a full-time employee in one establishment, but classified as part-time in another firm, where a 40-hour week is the minimum full-time schedule. 3 In this census division, collection was conducted between June 1999 and April 2001. The average reference period was July 2000. 4 A classification system including about 480 individual occupations is used to cover all workers in the civilian economy. For more information, see Technical Note. 5 The relative standard error (RSE) is the standard error expressed as a percent of the estimate. It can be used to calculate a "confidence interval" around a sample estimate. For more information about RSEs, see Technical Note. NOTE: Dashes indicate that no data were reported or that data did not meet publication criteria, and n.e.c. means "not elsewhere classified." Overall occupational groups may include data for categories not shown separately. 20 TABLE 6.

For more information, see Technical Note. 2 Each occupation for which data are collected in an establishment is evaluated based on 10 factors, including knowledge, complexity, work environment, etc. Points are assigned based on the occupation’s rank within each factor. The points are summed to determine the overall level of the occupation. See the Technical Note for more information. 3 Earnings are the straight-time hourly wages or salaries paid to employees. They include incentive pay, cost-of-living adjustments, and hazard pay. Excluded are premium pay for overtime, vacations, and holidays; nonproduction bonuses; and tips. The mean is computed by totaling the pay of all workers and dividing by the number of workers, weighted by hours. 4 In this census division, collection was conducted between June 1999 and April 2001. The average reference period was July 2000. 5 The relative standard error (RSE) is the standard error expressed as a percent of the estimate. It can be used to calculate a "confidence interval" around a sample estimate. For more information about RSEs, see Technical Note. NOTE: Dashes indicate that no data were reported or that data did not meet publication criteria, and n.e.c. means "not elsewhere classified." Overall occupational groups may include data for categories not shown separately. 45 Technical Note T Chicago-Gary-Kenosha, IL-IN-WI, CMSA Cincinnati-Hamilton, OH-KY-IN, CMSA Cleveland-Akron, OH, CMSA Columbus, OH, MSA Dayton-Springfield, OH, MSA Delta County, MI Detroit-Ann Arbor-Flint, MI, CMSA Elkhart-Goshen, IN, MSA Fond du Lac County, WI Grand Rapids-Muskegon-Holland, MI, MSA Green Lake County, WI Henderson County, IL Indianapolis, IN, MSA Jefferson County, IN Juneau County, WI Kalamazoo-Battle Creek, MI, MSA Marshall County, IN Milwaukee-Racine, WI, CMSA Monroe County, OH Morgan County, IL Rockford, IL, MSA Sauk County, WI Seneca County, OH Wayne County, OH Youngstown-Warren, OH, MSA he data in this bulletin are based on the National Compensation Survey (NCS) conducted by the Bureau of Labor Statistics throughout the year. The surveys are locality-based and cover establishments in private industry and State and local governments. Bulletins are issued for individual localities when sufficient data meet publication standards. Agriculture, private households, and the Federal Government are excluded from the scope of the survey. Survey scope. In the East North Central census division, the NCS studied 3,431 establishments representing approximately 16,137,900 workers within the scope of the survey. Beginning with the 1999 NCS, private sector establishments with one or more workers are included in the survey. State and local governments with 50 or more workers also are included. The number of workers represented by the survey is shown in table A, and the number of establishments is shown in table B. For purposes of this survey, an establishment is an economic unit that produces goods or services, a central administrative office, or an auxiliary unit providing support services to a company. For private industries in this survey, the establishment is usually at a single physical location. For State and local governments, an establishment is defined as all locations of a government entity. In the second stage, the sample of establishments was drawn by first stratifying the sampling frame by ownership and industry. The number of sample establishments allocated to each stratum is approximately proportional to the stratum employment. Each sampled establishment is selected within a stratum with a probability proportional to its employment. Use of this technique means that the larger an establishment’s employment, the greater the establishment’s chance of selection. Weights were applied to each establishment when the data were tabulated so that the establishment represents similar units (by industry and employment size) in the economy that were not selected for collection. The third stage of sample selection was a probability sample of occupations within a sampled establishment. In the East North Central region, collection was conducted between June 1999 and April 2001 with an average reference period of July 2000. Sampling frame. The list of establishments from which the survey sample was selected (sampling frame) was developed from the State unemployment insurance reports. The reference month for the public sector is June 1994. Due to the volatility of industries within the private sector, sampling frames were developed using the most recent month of reference available at the time the sample was selected. The reference month for the private sector varied by area. Sample design and data collection. The sample for this survey was selected using a three-stage design. The first stage consisted of the selection of areas. The nationwide NCS sample consists of 154 metropolitan and nonmetropolitan areas that represent the Nation’s 326 metropolitan statistical areas and the remaining portions of the 50 States. Metropolitan areas are designated Metropolitan Statistical Areas (MSA) or Consolidated Metropolitan Statistical Areas (CMSA), as defined in 1994 by the Office of Management and Budget. Nonmetropolitan areas are counties that do not fit the metropolitan area definition. The NCS locality areas that contribute to the East North Central census division are: Occupational selection and classification. Identification of the occupations for which wage data were collected was a four-step process: 1. Bloomington-Normal, IL, MSA Bloomington, IN, MSA 46 Probability-proportional-to-size selection of establishment jobs 2. 3. 4. from a sample and not from an entire population. The sample used for this survey is one of a number of possible samples of the same size that could have been selected using the sample design. Estimates derived from the different samples would differ from each other. A measure of the variation among these differing estimates is called the standard error or sampling error. It indicates the precision with which an estimate from a particular sample approximates the average result of all possible samples. The relative standard error (RSE) is the standard error divided by the estimate. Tables in this bulletin provide RSE data for indicated series. The relative standard error can be used to calculate a “confidence interval” around a sample estimate. As an example, suppose the mean hourly earnings for all workers were $15.80 per hour with a relative standard error of 1.2 percent for this estimate. At the 90-percent level, the confidence interval for this estimate is $15.49 to $16.11 ($15.80 x 1.645 x 0.012 = $0.312, round to $0.31); ($15.80 - .31 = $15.49; $15.80 + .31 = $16.11). If all possible samples were selected to estimate the population value, the interval from each sample would include the true population value approximately 90 percent of the time. Nonsampling errors also affect survey results. They can stem from many sources, such as inability to obtain information for some establishments, difficulties with survey definitions, inability of the respondents to provide correct information, or mistakes in recording or coding the data obtained. A Technical Reinterview Program done in all survey areas will be used in the development of a formal quality assessment process to help compute nonsampling error. Although they also were not specifically measured, efforts were made to minimize nonsampling errors by the extensive training of field economists who gathered survey data by personal visit, computer editing of the data, and detailed data review. Classification of jobs into occupations based on the Census of Population system Characterization of jobs as full-time vs. part-time, union vs. nonunion, and time vs. incentive Determination of the level of work of each job For each occupation, wage data were collected for those workers who met all the criteria identified in the last three steps. Special procedures were developed for jobs for which a correct classification or level could not be determined. In step one, the jobs to be sampled were selected at each establishment by the BLS field economist during a personal visit. A complete list of employees was used for sampling, with each selected worker representing a job within the establishment. As with the selection of establishments, the selection of a job was based on probability proportional to its size in the establishment. The greater the number of people working in a job in the establishment, the greater its chance of selection. The second step of the process entailed classifying the selected jobs into occupations based on their duties. The National Compensation Survey occupational classification system is based on the 1990 Census of Population. A selected job may fall into any one of about 480 occupational classifications, from accountant to wood lathe operator. For cases where a job’s duties overlapped two or more census classification codes, the duties used to set the wage level were used to classify the job. Classification by primary duties was the fallback. In step three, certain other job characteristics of the chosen workers were identified. First, the worker was identified as holding either a full-time or part-time job, based on the establishment’s definition of those terms. Then the worker was classified as having a time versus incentive job, depending on whether any part of pay was directly based on the actual production of the workers, rather than solely on hours worked. Finally, the worker was identified as being in a union or a nonunion job. The fourth step in the job classification procedure was to determine the work level of each of the establishment's selected jobs, using an “occupational leveling” process. This process, involving discussions between the Bureau’s field economist and the respondent, ranks and compares all selected establishment occupations using 10 leveling factors. For more information on occupational leveling and an example of how to use the criteria for leveling a job, see appendixes C and D of any published NCS locality bulletin or http://www.bls.gov/ncs/ocs/compub.htm. The Web site also has a link to the NCS job descriptions. Census area divisions. Data are tabulated by census divisions defined as follows: New England—Connecticut, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Maine, Vermont, and Rhode Island; Middle Atlantic—New Jersey, New York, and Pennsylvania; East North Central—Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, Ohio, and Wisconsin; West North Central— Iowa, Kansas, Minnesota, Missouri, North Dakota, South Dakota, and Nebraska; South Atlantic—Delaware, District of Columbia, Florida, Georgia, Maryland, North Carolina, South Carolina, Virginia, and West Virginia; East South Central—Alabama, Kentucky, Mississippi, and Tennessee; West South Central—Arkansas, Louisiana, Oklahoma, and Texas; Mountain—Montana, Idaho, Wyoming, Colorado, New Mexico, Arizona, Utah, and Nevada; and Pacific—Washington, Oregon, California, Hawaii, and Alaska. Some census divisions include CMSAs and MSAs that cross State lines. In the East North Central census division, the Cincinnati CMSA includes parts of Ohio, Kentucky, and Indiana. Data reliability. The data in this bulletin are estimates from a scientifically selected probability sample. There are two types of errors possible in an estimate based on a sample survey, sampling and nonsampling. Sampling errors occur because observations come only 47 TABLE A.
