Introduction 1/

The Baltimore area is one of several important indus­
trial centers in which the Bureau of Labor Statistics conducted
occupational wage surveys during the summer of 1951. 2/ Occu­
pations that are common to a variety of manufacturing and nonmanufacturing industries were studied on a community-wide basis.
Cross-industry methods of sampling were thus utilized in com­
piling earnings data for the following types of occupations:
(a) office,* (b) professional and technical; (c) maintenance and
power plant; (d) custodial, warehousing, and shipping.
In pre­
senting earnings information for such jobs (tables A-l through
A-4) data have been provided separately, wherever possible, for
broad industry divisions.

Occupations that are characteristic of particular,
important, local industries have been studied as heretofore on
an industry basis, within the framework of the community survey.
Earnings data for these jobs have been presented in
Series B tables.
Union scales
(Series C tables) are presented
in lieu of (or supplementing) occupational earnings for several
industries or trades in which the great majority of the workers
are employed under terms of collective bargaining agreements,
and the contract or minimum rates are indicative of prevailing
pay practices.

Data have also been collected and summarized on shift
operations and differentials, hours of work, and supplementary
benefits such as vacation and sick leave allowances, paid holi­
days, nonproduction bonuses, and insurance and pension plans.

1/ Prepared by Paul E. Warwick, Regional Wage Analyst.
The
planning and central direction of the program was carried on in
the Branch of Community Wage Studies of the Bureau fs Division
of Wages and Industrial Relations.
2/ Other areas studied are: Bridgeport, Dallas, Dayton, and
Portland, Oreg.
Similar studies were conducted earlier in the
year in Atlanta, Boston,
Chicago, Denver, New York and the San
Francisco-Oakland area#
See appendix for discussion of scope and method of survey.

The Baltimore Metropolitan Area

The Baltimore Metropolitan Area,
including Baltimore
City and Baltimore and Anne Arundel Counties, had approximately
1.300.000 inhabitants in 1950.
Three-fourths of this total was
concentrated in the city of Baltimore.
Nonagricultural employees (excluding government)
in
the Baltimore area totaled over 465,000 during June 1951.
Over
40 percent of these were employed in manufacturing establish­
ments which produce a variety of products, including steel, auto­
mobiles, aircraft, ships, fabricated metal products, industrial
chemicals, and clothing.
The importance of the area not only as a manufacturing
but also as a financial and commercial center is indicated by
the large number of workers employed in the various branches of
trade and finance. Wholesale and retail trade establishments
provided employment to 130,000 workers, and approximately another
25.000
were employed in finance,
insurance, and real estate.
Baltimore harbor is a vital part of the a r e a ’s industrial, com­
mercial, and transportation activities. Approximately 15 million
tons of exports and imports passed through the port in 1950 .
Facilities include dockside grain elevators and coal piers of
large capacity.
Recently added ore unloading facilities repre­
sent an important increase in the p o r t ’s economic potential.
The combined employment of the communication, public utilities,
and transportation industries,
including railroads, was more
than 50 ,000, and the services group employed more than 55,000
workers.
Among the industry and establishment-size groups in­
cluded within the scope of the Bureau’s study 3 /, two-thirds of
the plant workers were employed in establishments having writ­
ten agreements with labor organizations.
Unionization varied
widely in the various industries studied. The highest degree of
unionization was in durable-goods manufacturing
in which
nine-tenths of the workers were covered by written union agree-

A fourth of all plant workers in manufacturing estab­
lishments were working on late shifts in June 1951*
Virtually
all such workers were paid a differential over day (first) shift
rates, which in three cases in four was in the form of a centsper-hour premium. Shift premiums of 4 cents for second shift
work and 6 cents for third and other late shift work were re­
ceived by two-thirds of these workers.

1/ Wage scales and hours per week are those in effect on
July 16, 1951, for Atlantic and Gulf Coast ship operators
under contracts with the National Maritime Union, CIO. De­
tails of changes are given in the footnotes following. The
Wage Stabilization Board has to date not approved any simi­
lar changes for members of the Seafarers International
Union, AFL.
All ratings listed receive additional payment in
accordance with the following conditions:
1. On vessels carrying explosives in 50-ton lots or
over, 10 percent of basic monthly wages is added
while such cargo is aboard, or is being loaded or
unloaded.
2. On vessels carrying sulphur in amount of 25 per­
cent or more of dead weight carrying capacity, $5
per voyage is added. (On vessels carrying sul­
phur, cement, cyanide, etc., in bulk lots of 1000
tons or over, members of the SIU are paid the
same as those on vessels carrying explosives.)

3.

On vessels operating in described areas of China
coastal waters, a per diem allowance of $2.50 and
an "area bonus" of 100 percent of daily wages is
added. Also, on vessels operating within certain
designated areas of French Indo-China coastal
waters, a per diem allowance of $5 is added.
4. On vessels attacked, fired upon or struck by
mines of either belligerent, resulting in physi­
cal damage to the vessel or injury to a crew
member, a "vessel attack bonus" of $125 shall be
paid to each crew member.
2/ The maximum straight-time hours which may be worked
per week at sea. At sea, watch men and the steward's de­
partment normally work 56 hours a week, and receive overtime
pay for 4 hours on Saturday and 8 on Sunday. Day men at sea
normally work a 44-hour week. In port, all receive overtime
rates for work on Saturday and Sunday. Maximum straighttime hours at sea of 40 a week, approved by WSB effective
December 16, 1951, will result in overtime pay for 8 hours
on Saturday for all members.
2/ Wages reflect percentage increases of 3.7 effective
June 16 and 2.5 effective July 15, 1951, totaling 6.2 based
on January 1950 rates. Hours reflect reduction from 48 to
44 a week for watch men and the steward's department effec­
tive June 16. These actions were approved by WSB in Sep­
tember and October 1951.
4/ Wages reflect a 6.2 percent increase over January 1950
rates, and hours a reduction from 48 to 44 for watch men arid
the steward's department, effective July 15, 1951. Both
actions were approved by WSB in October 1951. Differences in
the contract of the SIU were formerly as follows:
1. Wage scales did not include a $3.50 a month in­
crease paid NMU members.
2. Carpenters were paid the same as Boatswains, i.e.,
$321.80 a month.
Wages reflect a 6.2 percent increase over January 1950
rates, and hours a reduction from 48 to 44 for watch men and
the steward's department, effective July 16, 1951. Both
actions were approved by WSB in October 1951. The SIU has
no contracts with collier operators.

Appendix — Scope and Method of Survey

With the exception of the union scale of rates,
in­
formation presented in this bulletin was collected by visits of
field representatives of the Bureau to representative establish­
ments in the area surveyed.
In classifying workers by occupa­
tion, uniform job descriptions were used;
these are available
upon request.
Six broad industry divisions were covered in compiling
earnings data for the following types of occupations: (a) office
clerical,
(b) professional and technical,
(c) maintenance and
power plant, and (d) custodial, warehousing, and shipping (tables
A-l through A-4)* The covered industry groupings are: manufac­
turing;
transportation (except railroads),
communication, and
other public utilities; wholesale trade; retail trade; finance,
insurance, and real estate; and services.
Information on work
schedules and supplementary benefits also was obtained in a rep­
resentative group of establishments in each of these industry
divisons.
As indicated in the following table only establish­
ments above a certain size were studied. Smaller establishments
were omitted because they furnished insufficient employment in
the occupations studied to warrant their inclusion in the study.
Among the industries in which characteristic jobs were
studied, minimum size of establishment and extent of the area
covered were determined separately for each industry (see fol­
lowing table).
Although size limits frequently varied from
those established for surveying cross-industry office and plant
jobs, data for these jobs were included only for firms meeting
the size requirements of the broad industry divisions.

A greater proportion cf large than of small establish­
ments was studied in order to maximize the number of workers
surveyed with available resources. Each group of establishments




of a certain size, however, was given its proper weight in the
combination of data by industry and occupation.
The earnings information excludes premium pay for over­
time and night work.
Nonproduction bonuses are also excluded,
but cost-of-living bonuses and incentive earnings,
including
commissions for salespersons, are included. Where weekly hours
are reported as for office clerical, they refer to the work sched­
ules (rounded to the nearest half-hour) for which the straighttime salaries are paid; average weekly earnings for these occu­
pations have been rounded to the nearest 50 cents.
The number
of workers presented refers to the estimated total employment in
all establishments within the scope of the study and not to the
number actually surveyed.
Data are shown for only full-time
workers, i.e., those hired towork the establishments full-time
schedule for the given occupational classification.
Information on wage practices refers to all office
and plant workers as specified in the individual tables. It is
presented in terms of the proportion of all workers employed in
offices
(or plant departments)
that observe the practice in
question, except in the section relating to women office workers
of the table summarizing scheduled weekly hours. Because of eli­
gibility requirements, the proportion actually receiving the
specific benefits may be smaller.
The summary of vacation and
sick leave plans is limited to formal arrangements. It excludes
informal plans whereby time off with pay is granted at the dis­
cretion of the employer or other supervisor. Sick leave plans
are further limited to those providing full pay for at least
some amount of time off without any provision for a waiting
period preceding the payment of benefitst These plans also ex­
clude health insurance even though it is paid for by employers.
Health insurance is included, however, under tabulation for in­
surance and pension plans.
