Occupational Employment in Selected Nonmanufacturing Industries AJ i: ^ U.S. Department of Labor Bureau of Labor Statistics March 1981 Bulletin 2088 A Occupational Employment in Selected Nonmanufacturing Industries U.S. Department of Labor Raymond J. Donovan, Secretary Bureau of Labor Statistics Janet L. Norwood, Commissioner March 1981 Bulletin 2088 Preface This bulletin provides data from a 1978 survey of occupational employment in mining; construction; fi nance, insurance, and real estate; and selected services industries. Wholesale and retail trade; transportation; communications; and electric, gas, and sanitary services were surveyed in 1979, and results will be published later this year. Results of the 1977 survey of manufacturing industries were published in Occupational Employment in Manufacturing Industries, 1977 Bulletin 2057. This periodic survey is part of a Federal-State coop erative program of occupational employment statistics (OES). The OES program also includes preparation of the National/State Industry-Occupational Matrix—a set of tables showing employment cross-classified by oc cupation and industry for the Nation and each State. In addition, the program includes Federal assistance to State employment security agencies in developing pro jections of occupational employment for States and areas. Hi The OES program provides information for many data users, including individuals and organizations en gaged in planning vocational educational programs, training programs supported by the Comprehensive Employment and Training Act, and higher education. OES data also are used to prepare information for ca reer counseling, for job placement activities performed at State employment security offices, and for personnel planning and market research conducted by private enterprises. This bulletin was prepared in the Office of Employ ment Structure and Trends, Division of Occupational and Administrative Statistics, by Barbara L. Keitt un der the direction of Thomas C. Shirk. John Shew and Warren Macurdy provided statistical and data process ing support.

Occupational titles and descriptions in the survey are based primarily on the Dictionary o f Occu pational Titles. 1The DOT was used to develop the def initions of detailed classification available. Summary categories and residual groups generally follow the cate gories used in the 1970 census. “Crosswalks” have been developed between the two systems so that users may integrate OES data with data from sources using the Census classification. The industrial classification system is that described in the 1972 edition of the Standard Industrial Classifi cation Manual,2 whereby reporting establishments are classified into industries on the basis of major product or activity. The Occupational Employment Statistics (OES) sur vey is designed to collect data on occupational employ ment of wage and salary workers by industry in nonagricultural establishments. The Bureau of Labor Sta tistics provides the procedures and technical assistance for the survey, State employment security agencies col lect the data, and the Employment and Training Ad ministration provides administrative support. In 1978, 43 States (including the District of Columbia) partici pated in the survey compared with 29 States in 1975 and 22 in 1973. BLS conducted a supplemental survey in 1978, with the financial aid of the National Science Foundation, to collect data in nonparticipating States and to develop national estimates. This bulletin presents national data only. Data on oc cupational employment in each of the participating States are available from the State employment securi ty agencies (appendix B). Concepts An establishment is an economic unit which produces goods or services. Generally, it is at a single physical location and is engaged predominantly in one type of economic activity. Where a single physical location en compasses two or more distinct activities, these are treated as separate establishments if separate payroll records are available and certain other criteria are met. Employment includes full- and part-time workers; workers on paid vacations or other types of leave; work ers on unpaid short-term absences (i.e., illness, bad weather, temporary layoff, jury duty); salaried officers, executives, and staff of incorporated firms; employees temporarily assigned to other units; and employees for whom a unit is their permanent (home) duty station, regardless of whether the unit prepares their paycheck. Excluded from coverage are proprietors (owners and partners of unincorporated firms), self-employed, un paid family workers, and workers on extended leave (i.e., pensioners and members of the Armed Forces). Occupation refers to the occupation in which employ ees are working rather than the occupation for which they may have been trained. For example, an employ ee trained as an engineer but working as a drafter is reported as a drafter. Survey procedures The survey is conducted over a 3-year cycle; manu facturing industries are surveyed in one year and non manufacturing industries in the other two years. Data are collected from a sample of establishments primari ly by mail; telephone followups and personal visits are made when an establishment response is critical to the survey. The survey is based on a probability sample, stratified by industry and size of employment, designed to represent the total or “universe” of establishments covered by the survey. Data are requested for the pay period including the 12th of the reference month, which is standard for all Federal agencies collecting employ ment data. For the 1978 survey, the reference month was April, May, or June (appendix A). For the 1978 survey, 38 separate questionnaires were used, each having detailed occupations related specifi cally to a particular industry’s activity. For example, “credit analyst” was surveyed in only two industries— banking and insurance. Cross-industry estimates, there-fore, cannot be developed for most detailed occupations because not all detailed occupations were included on every survey questionnaire. This bulletin presents cross industry data for major occupational groups. 1Dictionary o f Occupational Titles, fourth edition (U.S. Employment Service, U.S. Department of Labor, 1977.) 1Standard Industrial Classification Manual (Office of Management and Budget, Executive Office of the President, 1972), as amended in Supplement, 1977. Occupational and industrial classification The OES classification system combines two widely used systems—the Dictionary o f Occupational Titles 1 Working supervisors (those spending 20 percent or more of their time at work similar to that done by workers under their supervision) are reported in the occupation most closely related to their work. Part-time workers, learners, and apprentices are report ed in the occupation in which they ordinarily work. Multiple jobholders (employees who work in two or more occupations) are reported in the occupation that requires the highest level of skill or in the occupation where the most time is spent if there is no measurable difference in skill requirements. A more detailed statement describing the survey is presented in appendix A. Employment is based upon survey results adjusted to reflect total industry employment. The percent of total employment refers to total employment in the industry. Relative error measures the level of confidence placed on each estimate. The percent of establishments report ing a particular occupation indicates the frequency of occurrence of the occupation. Occupations with fewer than 50 workers, or with less than 0.01 percent of industry employment, or with a relative error greater than 50 are not shown separately but are included in the appropriate residual categories. Employment is rounded to the nearest ten. The rel ative error and the percent of respondents reporting the occupation are rounded to the nearest whole percent. The percent of total employment was computed from rounded employment data. Data presented This bulletin presents occupational employment for 2-digit SIC industries. Health services (SIC 80), how ever, excludes data for SIC 806.3 Data are presented for each industry under the following headings: Em ployment, percent of total employment, relative error, and percent of establishments reporting the occupation. 3Additional occupational employment data at the more detailed 3-digit SIC level are available upon request from the Office of Em ployment Structure and Trends. Definitions for all occupations sur veyed are also available upon request. 2 Summary and serve food and beverages. Over 60 percent of serv ice workers covered by the survey were in cleaning occupations or in personal services. Food preparation and food serving workers accounted for 20 percent of service employment; protective service workers, 10 percent. Professional occupations, accounting for 2.8 million workers, ranked fourth in employment in 1978. This group include occupations concerned with the theoret ical and practical aspects of human endeavor in such fields as art, science, engineering, medicine, law and business relations. The survey categorized professional occupations as either scientific or nonscientific. Nonscientific occupations accounted for 86 percent of these workers. Five occupations with significant employment were: Accountants and auditors, 314,700; professional nurses, 181,800; physicians and surgeons, 144,300; pre school teachers, 143,600; and lawyers, 118,600. Managers and officers include persons concerned with policymaking, planning, and staffing, directly or through subordinates, the activities of an establishment or enterprise. Occupations in this group include office, sales, and plant managers; and corporate officers. Managers and officers were the fifth largest group in nonmanufacturing. Significant numbers of these work ers were employed in four industries: Construction, banks and credit agencies, insurance and real estate, and business services. Technical occupations accounted for about 4 percept of the employment covered by this survey. This group includes workers who assist in health care; in engineer ing and scientific research, development, and testing; and in operating and programming technical equipment and systems. Forty-six percent of technical employees were in health services (excluding hospitals). About 708,000 workers were in sales occupations. Of these, insurance sales agents, associates, and represent atives constituted the largest group, 225,000 or 32 percent. Sales agents, associates, and representatives (other than insurance and real estate) made up the second largest group, 201,200, followed by real estate sales agents, associates, and representatives, 95,000. In 1978, employment in the selected nonmanufactur ing industries covered by this survey was 22.3 million or a little over 25 percent of all wage and salary em ployment in the Nation. As shown in table 1, 55 per cent of surveyed employment was in service industries. Finance, insurance, and real estate industries and con struction accounted for most of the rest; mining ac counted for less than 5 percent. For the survey, workers were classified into seven major occupational groups: Managers and officers; pro fessional workers; technical workers; service workers; maintenance, construction, repair, material handling, and powerplant workers; clerical workers; and sales workers. The maintenance, construction, repair, material han dling, and powerplant occupational group includes all skilled, semiskilled, and unskilled workers performing machine and manual work. In 1978, this group was the largest surveyed (table 2). One out of every three sur veyed workers was engaged in an occupation associ ated with construction, whether in the construction in dustry itself or in other industries. The survey showed that 89 percent of carpenters, plumbers, and pipefitters, and 80 percent of all electricians worked in construction. Clerical occupations, the second largest group, are concerned with preparing, transcribing, systematizing, and preserving written communications and records; distributing information; collecting accounts; allocating; expediting; and computing materials and production costs. Clerical occupations are classified into two sub groups—office clerical and plant clerical. The majority of clerical occupations are office ori ented. In 1978, the largest single occupation in all non manufacturing industries surveyed was secretary, with 969,000 workers. Other clerical occupations with sig nificant employment for the group and sector as a whole were: General office clerks, with 781,300; tellers, 387,800; and hand bookkeepers, 319,600. Service workers constituted the third largest group of workers in 1978. The service group includes work ers who provide personal and protective services to in dividuals in institutions and commercial establishments; maintain and clean interiors of buildings; and prepare 3 Table 1.

Maintenance, construction, repair, material handling, and powerplant workers 5 Mining construction, and related occupations, 28,000 or 6 per cent; managers and officers, 23,700 or 5 percent; and mine machinery mechanics, 16,800 or 4 percent. Tables 4 through 6 show occupational employment for the mining of metals, bituminous coal and lignite, and nonmetallic minerals. In 1978, mining employed 882,200 workers or 4 per cent of all workers in the surveyed industries. Mining, which includes exploration for and production of liq uid and solid raw materials, was classified into two ma jor industry groups: Mining, except oil and gas extrac tion; and oil and gas extraction. Employment was di vided almost equally between the two. Oil and gas extraction Mining, except oil and gas extraction This industry (SIC 13) includes establishments pri marily engaged in producing crude petroleum, natural gas and gasoline, cycle condensate; and in the recovery of oil sands and shale. As shown in table 7, the five most populous occupa tions in oil and gas extraction were: Roustabouts, with 59,100 or 14 percent of total industry employment; man agers and officers, 38,400 or 9 percent; rotary drill op erator helpers, 26,900 or 6 percent; rotary drill opera tors, 14,900 or 4 percent; and secretaries, 14,400 or 3 percent. This group of industries (SIC’s 10, 11, 12, and 14) includes establishments primarily engaged in metal min ing, anthracite mining, bituminous coal and lignite min ing and mining and quarrying of nonmetallic minerals, except fuels. As shown in table 3, the five most populous occupa tions in mining, except oil and gas extraction, were: Heavy equipment operators, with 47,500 or 10 percent of total industry employment; truck drivers, 30,700 or 7 percent; nonworking supervisors for maintenance, 6 Table 3.

For further information on sampling variability and other types of errors, see appendix A. n.a. Not available. 17 Construction This industry division includes new construction, ad ditions, alterations, and repair work. In 1978, the construction industry employed 4.5 mil lion workers or 20 percent of all workers covered by the survey. Over 75 percent of these workers were in maintenance, construction, repair, material handling, and powerplant occupations. As shown in table 8, the five most populous occupations in the construction in dustry were: Carpenters, with 527,600 or 12 percent of total industry employment; managers and officers, 425,800 or 9 percent; heavy equipment operators, 239,200 or 5 percent; electricians, 234,000 or 5 percent; and plumbers and pipefitters, 197,000 or 4 percent. Construction workers are employed in one of three industry segments—general building contractors (SIC 15), heavy construction contractors (SIC 16), or special trade contractors (SIC 17).

Survey Methods and Reliability of Estimates The universe was stratified into SIC and size classes.The size classes were determined by employment as follows: Scope of survey The survey covered private nonmanufacturing estab lishments in Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) codes 10-17, 60-67, 70-79, 80 (except 806), 81, 83, 84, 86, and 89. Geographically, the survey covered all 50 States plus the District of Columbia. Size class 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 Method of collection Survey schedules were mailed to most sample estab lishments; personal visits were made to some larger com panies. Two additional mailings were sent to nonrespondents at approximately 6-week intervals. Nonrespondents con sidered critical to the survey (due to size) were called by telephone or visited. The sampling frame for this survey was the list of units in the specified SIC’s as reported to the State employment security agency. Because each State selected its own sam ple, dates of the sampling frame varied according to the last updates to the frame and the time sampling took place. The reference date for the frame used for sampling in the 8 supplemental States was the first quarter of 1977. The reporting week of the survey, depending on the SIC of the sampled unit, was the week that included April 12, May 12, or June 12, 1978, as shown in table A -l.

Reporting units with 250 or more employees were included in the sample with certainty. Sample sizes intended to produce State estimates with target relative errors of 10, 15, 17.5, and 20 percent at one standard deviation were developed for noncertainty size classes. This was done for groups of SIC’s based on averages of occupational rates and coefficients of variation (CV’s) from the previous survey for a set of typical occupations. This SIC sample size was allocated to the size classes proportional to size class employment. The sample was selected systematically with equal probability within each State/SIC/size class cell. The sample size for 8 supplemental States was devel oped by first determining the sample size required for national estimates in each 2-digit SIC with a target rela tive error of 15 percent at one standard deviation. This was done by averaging CV’s and occupational rates for a set of scientific, technical, and engineering occupations from the previous survey. Establishments with 1,000 or more employees were included with certainty. This na tional SIC sample size was then allocated to the noncoop erating State/size class cells proportional to employment. The above allocations resulted in a total initial sample size for all States of 333,115 reporting units. Sampling procedure Table A-1. Employees Reference date May 12 June 12 April 12 April 12 May 12 June 12 May 12 April 12 April 12 June 12 75 Response ®ijk Mi The population value of total employment (Mj) was obtained from the BLS monthly survey of employment, hours, and earnings in nonagricultural establishments. The standard form for the sampling variance for a combined ratio estimate is: Estimation A weight was determined for each sample unit from which a usable response was received. Each weight was composed of two factors. The first factor is the inverse of the probability of selection. For questionnaires that were not returned or otherwise not usable, a nonresponse ad justment, the second factor, was made to correct for these nonrespondents. For each of the 3-digit State/SIC/size class sampling cells, a nonresponse factor was calculated that was equal to: V(p) A ij Where: V(p) i j N ij Weighted sample employment of all eligible units in sample Weighted sample employment of all responding eligible units fy Sample employment was taken from the sampling frame. If the factor in a cell was greater than a predetermined maximum factor, which increased as the number of re spondents in a cell increased, the cell was collapsed with other homogeneous cells within the SIC until the factor for the combined cells was not greater than the appropri ate maximum factor. If the collapsing procedure termi nated (i.e. no more cells were available for collapse) be fore satisfying the above constraint, then the appropriate maximum factor was used. For size classes 1-6, homogen eous cells were determined to be other size cells within the SIC and State. For size classes 7-9, homogeneous cells were determined to be other State cells within the SIC and size. The weight for each establishment was the prod uct of the two factors. A combined ratio estimate of occupational employ ment was used to develop national estimates. The auxil iary variable used was total employment. The estimating formula is: ny Spij Seij Pij S J_k_____ i SS wijk ejjk i J k wijk S S N ij2 Dy = = = Gy = Hy = Fy = (Mi) / ( f f * * "*) V..2 V*J = 2 k Fjjk = ( P y k- R i e y k ) Tu By Mi Jk Where: p (1 — fji) .

Usable responses were obtained from 214,686 units, producing a response rate of 66.7 percent based on units and 62.8 percent based on weighted employment. Subsequent to preparation of national estimates, States received additional data to prepare State estimates. Response rates in most States *were significantly higher than the response rate used to develop national estimates. 2- digit industry occupational employment estimate 3- digit industry within a 2-digit industry size class Where: establishment weight after nonresponse adjustment 76 My [B y] • [Dy] • [F y]2 (M y -e y )/(M y ) (Gy)/(Hy) W yk • Lyk “ (Py-Riey) benchmark total employment in the i-th industry and j-th size class ?2 Wjjk Pijk"| Jk f f 2 2 wijkeijk tained from the sample design for this survey. The com plete coverage value would be included in the range: J/Uk 1. From one standard error below to one standard error above the derived estimate for 68 percent of all samples. 2. From 1.6 standard errors below to 1.6 standard errors above the derived estimate for 90 percent of all samples. 3. From two standard errors below to two standard errors above the derived estimate for 95 percent of all samples. 4. From three standard errors below to three stand ard errors above the derived estimate for nearly all samples. All other terms are defined earlier. This formula is almost a computational form of the earlier standard formula. One simplifying assumption has been made, as follows: Wijk = Cy for all k in a given ij cell That is, the weights are equal to a constant c within a given 3-digit industry/size cell. At this time, the total effect of this assumption on the variance estimates has not been measured. Reliability of estimates An inference that the complete coverage value would be within the indicated ranges would be correct in approx imately the relative frequencies shown. For example, suppose an estimated total is shown as 5,000 with an associated relative error of 2 percent. Then the standard error is 100 (2 percent of 5,000) and there is a 68-percent chance that the complete coverage total would be between 4,900 and 5,100 and it is almost certain that the complete coverage total would be between 4,700 and 5,300. Relative errors primarily indicate the magnitude of the sampling error, but do not measure biases in the data due to nonsampling error. Efforts were made to reduce the biases due to errors in recording, coding, and processing the data. The adjustment made for nonrespondents as sumed that the characteristics of the nonrespondents were the same as those of the respondents. To the extent this is not true, bias is introduced in the data. The magnitude of these biases is not known. Particular care should be exercised in interpreting small estimates, estimates based on a small number of cases, or small differences between estimates because the sampling errors are relatively large and the magnitude of the biases is unknown. Estimates from the sample may differ from results of a complete survey of all establishments in the sampled lists. Two types of errors, sampling and nonsampling, are pos sible in an estimate based on a sample survey. Sampling error occurs because observations are made only on a sample, not on the entire population. Nonsampling error can be attributed to many sources, e.g., inability to obtain information about all cases in the sample; differences in the respondents’ interpretation of questions; inability of respondents to provide correct information; errors in re cording, coding, or processing; errors in estimating values for missing data; and failure to represent all units in the population. Standard errors of estimates provide guides to the po tential size of sampling errors. Estimates of the standard errors, computed from the sample data, are presented in the form of variance and relative errors. The variance is the standard error squared and the relative error is the standard error divided by the estimated value to which it refers. The sample estimate and its standard error enable one to construct confidence intervals or ranges that would include the complete coverage survey value for specified percentages of all the possible samples that could be ob 77 Appendix B.
