Introduction 1/
The Columbus area is 1 of 40 major labor markets in
which the Bureau of Labor Statistics is currently conducting
occupational wage surreys* Occupations common to a variety of
manufacturing and nonmanufacturing industries were studied on a
community-wide basis* Cross-industry methods of sampling were
thus utilised in ooasiling earnings data for the following types
of occupations: (a) office; (b) professional and technical;
(o) maintenance and power plant; (d) custodial, warehousing,
and shipping* In presenting earnings information for such jobs
(tables A-l through A-4) separate data have been provided wher
ever possible for Individual broad industry divisions*
Occupations characteristic of particular, important,
local industries were studied on an industry basis, within the
framework of the community survey* 2j 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*
Bata were collected and summarized 0n shift operations
and differentials, hours of work, and supplementary benefits
such as vacation and sick leavs allowances, paid holidays, non
production bonuses, and insurance and pension plans*
Tiie Columbus Metropolitan Area
Total population of the Colmbus Metropolitan Area
(Franklin County) was approximately 503,000 in April 1950, an 8
percent increase since 1940* Of this total, 376,000 resided in
Columbus, the third largest city in Ohio* Estimates for January
1952 were 518,000 for the Metropolitan Area and 389,000 for
Columbus proper.
1 / Prepared In the Bureau1s regional office in Chicago, 111*,
by Voodrow C. Linn and Marvin H* Gliok, under the direction of
George E. Votava, Regional Wage and Industrial Relations Analyst*
The planning and central direction of the program was carried
on in the Bureau1s Division of Wages and Industrial Relations*
2 / See appendix for diseussion of soopo and method of sur-
In December 1951, employment in Columbus area estate
lishments subject to the Ohio Unemployment Compensation Law j/
totaled approximately 160,000 persons, of whom about 66,000 were
employed in manufacturing plants. Columbus* highly diversified
industry sends its products to every section of the world. The
area*s dominant manufacturing industries in terms of number of
persons employed are in transportation equipment, fabricated
metal products, nonelectrical machinery, and food and kindred
products. Important products of Columbus metalworking indus
tries include aircraft, roller bearings, construction and mining
machinery, automotive parts, iron and steel castings and forg
ings, and heating equipment.
The importance of Columbus as a commercial and distri
bution center for central Ohio is emphasized by the fact that
46,800 persons were employed in wholesale and retail trade
establishments in December 1951*
Transportation (excluding
railroads), communication, and other public utility companies
provided employment for 10,500 workers* An additional 11,500
employees were employed by finance, insurance, and real estate
institutions; and 14,000 were employed by the various services
industries*
Labor organizations represented 55 percent of the
workers employed in nonoffice jobs in the various industries
and establishment-size groups studied. Seven of 10 factory
workers in manufacturing establishments were employed in union
plants* In nonmanufacturing industries the proportion of non
office workers covered by union agreements ranged from slightly
less than a tenth in the services group to seven-tenths in the
transportation (except railroads), communication, and public
utilities group# Union contracts covered a fifth of the workers
in wholesale And retail trade establishments.
Unionization was fhr less extensive among office work
ers, with less than 5 percent working under provisions of col
lective-bargaining Agreements. The highest proportion of office
workers coverid by union agreement provisions was reported in
tr&mspdrtAtioft (except railroads), communication, and other
utilities.
2/ Employing Who employ three or more workers at any one
time within a calendar year. The law exempts the self-employed;
those with fewer than three workers; agricultural labor;
do
mestic service in private homes; government service; nonprofit
organization! such as religious and charitable agencies; inter
state railrbed workers; students; teachers; and family workers.
Occupational W age Structure
Extensive formal wage adjustments were made in Colum
bus area establishments between January 1950, the base period
for the Wage Stabilization Board*s “catch—up1* wage formula, and
the time of the Bureau's survey. By April 1952 , 95 percent of
all plant workers in manufacturing establishments studied had
received one or more general wage increases. In nonmanufactur
ing establishments two-fifths of the plant workers had received
at least one general wage increase during the period. Many of
the remaining workers had received pay raises granted on an in
dividual basis. Formal revisions of office workers' salaries
were less prevalent, although office workers in the larger manu
facturing establishments frequently were granted increases com
parable to those given plant workers. Individual merit or
length-of-service raises were commonly used to adjust salary
levels in place of general wage increases.
Wage rates for nearly 90 percent of all Columbus area
plant workers were determined on the basis of formal rate struc
tures. Three-fifths of all time-rated workers were employed
under plans which provided a range of rates for each job. Wage
plans specifying a single or flat rate for each job classifica
tion were in effect in establishments employing more than a
fourth of all time-rated workers; the rest were paid time rates
based on individual determination. Piece-rate or bonus incen
tive payment plans covered plant jobs in which 30 percent of
the workers in manufacturing establishments were classified.
They were either nonexistent or relatively insignificant among
the nonmanufacturing industries with the exception of services
establishments in which about 10 percent of the plant workers
were paid incentive rates.
Virtually all formal wage plans reported for office
occupations provided a range of salaries for each job. Few
office workers were paid salaries based on single-rate plans*
and a fourth were found working in establishments that deter
mined salaries on an individual basis.
Established minimum entrance rates for hiring inex
perienced plant workers were part of the formalized wage struc
ture in nearly all the firms studied. Although entrance rates
ranged from less than 75 cents to more than #1.45 an hour, $1
or more was the minimum rate in establishments giving employment
to slightly more than half of all plant workers. In manufac
turing industries 3 out of 4 workers were employed in estab
lishments having entrance rates of $1 or more. A 75-cent mini
mum was the lowest rate reported in nianufacturing; and trans
portation, communication, and other public utilities. Minimum
entrance rates of less than 75 cents were found in other non
manufacturing groups studied.
Wages and salaries of workers in manufacturing indus
tries were generally higher than those in noaaanuf acturing. In
24 of the 29 office classifications permitting comparison, aver
age weekly salaries in manufacturing establishments exceeded
those in nonmanufacturing. Average hourly earnings for plant
workers studied in all industries were higher in manufacturing
for 17 of the 20 job categories for which comparisons were pos
sible.
More than 20 percent of the plant workers in Columbus
area manufacturing establishments were employed on late shifts
in April 1952.
Over four-fifths of these workers were on
second-shift operations. Nearly all second- and third-shift
workers were paid shift differentials, usually expressed in
terms of a uniform oents-per-hour addition to day rates. Most
common second-shift differentials were 5 or 8 cents an hour.
The scheduled workweek for 55 percent of all plant
workers was 40 hours in April. Virtually all of the remaining
workers were scheduled to work longer hours with a third of
these workers scheduled to work 43 hours. Forty-hour weekly
schedules existed for more than 70 percent of the women office
workers, with nearly all of the others working shorter sched
ules. In finance, insurance, and real estate offices 6 in every
10 employees worked less than 40 hours a week.

Occupational Wage Survey, Columbus, Ohio, April 1952
U.S. DEPARTMENT OF LABOR
Bureau of Labor Statistics

Appendix - Scope
Vith 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 s (a) office
olerioal, (b) professional and technical, (o) maintenance and
power plant, and (d) custodial, warehousing, and shipping (tables
A-l through A-A). The covered Industry groupings ares 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
divisions. 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.
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 tne broad industry divisions.
A greater proportion of large than of small establish
ments was studied in order to maximize the number of workers
surveyed with available resources. Each group of establishments
td Method of Survey
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. Nonproduotion 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 far only full-time
workers, i.e., those hired to work the establishment1s 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 seotion relating to women office workers
of the table sumnarizing 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 benefits. 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.
