It yields detailed data by selected industry divisions for each of the areas studied, for economic regions, and for the United States. A major consideration in the program is the need for greater insight into (1) the movement of wages by occupational category and skill level, and (2) the structure and level of wages among areas and industry divisions.

Custodial and material movement occupations___________ At the end of each survey, an individual area bulletin presents survey results for each area studied. After completion of all of the individual area bulletins for a round of surveys, a two-part summary bulletin is issued. The first part brings data for each of the metropolitan areas studied into one bulletin. The second part presents information which has been projected from individual met ropolitan area data to relate to economic regions and the United States. This bulletin presents results of the survey in Columbus, Ohio, in October 1964. It was prepared in the Bureau's regional office in Cleveland, Ohio, by Donald J. McNulty, under the direction of Elliott A. Browar, A ssist ant Regional Director for Wages and Industrial Relations. 1 4 areas. * NOTE: Similar tabulations are available for other (See inside back cover.) Union scales, indicative of prevailing pay levels in the Columbus area, are also available for building con struction, printing, local-transit operating employees, and motortruck drivers and helpers. iii 5 8 Occupational Wage Survey—Columbus, Ohio Introduction reported, as for office clerical occupations, reference is to the work schedules (rounded to the nearest half hour) for which straight-time salaries are paid; average weekly earnings for these occupations have been rounded to the nearest half dollar. This area is 1 of 82 in which the U. S. Department of Labor's Bureau of Labor Statistics conducts surveys of occupa tional earnings and related wage benefits on an areawide basis. In this area, data were obtained by personal visits of Bureau field economists to representative establishments within six broad industry divisions: Manufacturing; transportation, communication, and other public utilities; wholesale trade; retail trade; finance, insurance, and real estate; and services. Major industry groups excluded from these studies are government operations and the construction and extractive industries. Establishments having fewer than a prescribed number of workers are omitted because they tend to furnish insufficient employ ment in the occupations studied to warrant inclusion. Separate tabu lations are provided for each of the broad industry divisions which meet publication criteria. Differences in average pay levels for men and women in any of the selected occupations should not be assumed to reflect differ ences in pay treatment of the sexes within individual establishments. The averages presented reflect composite, areawide estimates. In dustries and establishments differ in pay level, job staffing, and in the extent to which men and women are employed and, thus, contribute differently to the estimates. Other possible factors which may con tribute to differences in pay include: Differences in progression within established rate ranges, since only the actual rates paid in cumbents are collected; and differences in specific duties performed, although the workers are appropriately classified within the same survey job description. Job descriptions used in classifying employees in these surveys are usually more generalized than those used in individual establishments and allow for minor differences among e s tablishments in the specific duties performed. These surveys are conducted on a sample basis because of the unnecessary cost involved in surveying all establishments. To obtain optimum accuracy at minimum cost, a greater proportion of large than of small establishments is studied. In combining the data, however, all establishments are given their appropriate weight. E s timates based on the establishments studied are presented, therefore, as relating to all establishments in the industry grouping and area, except for those below the minimum size studied. Occupational employment estimates represent the total in all establishments within the scope of the study and not the number actually surveyed. Because of differences in occupational structure among establishments, the estimates of occupational employment obtained from the sample of establishments studied serve only to indicate the relative importance of the jobs studied. These differences in occupational structure do not materially affect the accuracy of the earnings data. Occupations and Earnings The occupations selected for study are common to a variety of manufacturing and nonmanufacturing industries, and are of the following types: (1) Office clerical; (2) professional and technical; (3) maintenance and powerplant; and (4) custodial and material move ment. Occupational classification is based on a uniform set of job descriptions designed to take account of interestablishment variation in duties within the same job. The occupations selected for study are listed and described in appendix B. Earnings data for some of the occupations listed and described are not presented in the A -series tables because either (l) employment in the occupation is too small to provide enough data to merit presentation, or (2) there is possi bility of disclosure of individual establishment data. Establishment Practices and Supplementary Wage Provisions Information is presented (in the B -series tables) on selected establishment practices and supplementary wage provisions as they relate to office and plant workers. Administrative, executive, and professional employees, and force-account construction workers who are utilized as a separate work force are excluded. "Office workers" include working supervisors and nonsupervisory workers performing clerical or related functions. "Plant workers" include working fore men and all nonsupervisory workers (including leadmen and trainees) engaged in nonoffice functions. Cafeteria workers and routemen are excluded in manufacturing industries, but included in nonmanufacturing industries. Occupational employment and earnings data are shown for full-time workers, i.e., those hired to work a regular weekly schedule in the given occupational classification. Earnings data exclude pre mium pay for overtime and for work on weekends, holidays, and late shifts. Nonproduction bonuses are excluded, but cost-of-living bonuses and incentive earnings are included. Where weekly hours are Minimum entrance salaries (table B- l ) relate only to the e s tablishments visited. They are presented in terms of establishments with formal minimum entrance salary policies. 1 2 Shift d ifferen tia l data (table B -2 ) are lim ited to plant w ork ers in manufacturing industries. This in form ation is presen ted both in term s of (1) establishm ent p olicy , 1 presen ted in term s o f total plant w ork er em ploym ent, and (2) e ffectiv e p ra ctice , p resen ted in term s of w ork ers actually em ployed on the sp ecified shift at the tim e o f the survey. In establishm ents having v a rie d d ifferen tia ls, the amount applying to a m a jority was used o r, if no amount applied to a m a jority , the cla ss ifica tio n "o th e r" was used. In establishm ents in which som e la te -sh ift hours are paid at n orm al rates, a d ifferen tia l was re co rd e d only if it applied to a m a jority o f the shift hours. The scheduled weekly hours (table B -3) o f a m a jo rity o f the fir s t-s h ift w ork ers in an establishm ent are tabulated as applying to all of the plant or o ffice w ork ers o f that establishm ent.

A p p e n d ix A . C h a n g e s in O c c u p a tio n a l D e s c rip tio n s Draftsman. The revised descriptions for draftsman (class A, B, and C; and draftsman-tracer) replace the previous designations for drafts man (leader, senior, and junior; and tracer) and emphasize the distinction between drafting and design skills. Therefore, if data are presented for any of these occupations, such data are not comparable to data previously published. In areas where current employment and earnings information was collected largely by mail this year and will be collected by a personal visit by Bureau field economists next year, data for these occupations will be presented next year. Since the Bureau's last survey, occupational descriptions for draftsman and switchboard operator were revised in order to obtain salary information for more specific categories. Switchboard operator. The revised description for switchboard operator arranges these workers into two defined classes (A and B) instead of a single category, clarifying the criteria of types of calls handled and types of information provided. The combination of class A and class B data, where both are published, is comparable to the single designation, if previously published. The revised occupational descriptions are included in appendix B. 23 A p p e n d ix B . O c c u p a tio n a l D e s c rip tio n s The primary purpose of preparing job descriptions for the Bureaufs 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 of occupational wage rates representing comparable job content. Because of 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 economists are instructed to exclude working supervisors, apprentices, learners, beginners, trainees, handicapped, part-time, temporary, and probationary workers.
