D iffe ren c es in pay le v e ls fo r se le c te d occupations in which

T hese s u rv e y s a r e conducted on a sam ple b asis because of

obtain optim um a c c u ra c y at m inim um c o st, a g re a te r p ro p ortion of

h o w e v e r, a ll e stab lish m e n ts a r e given th e ir ap p rop riate w eight. E s ­

as re la tin g to a ll estab lish m e n ts in the in d ustry grouping and a r e a ,

O ccupational em ploym ent e stim a te s re p re s e n t the to tal in

ac tu a lly su rv e y e d . B ecau se of d iffe re n c e s in occupational stru c tu re
among e sta b lish m e n ts, the e stim a te s of occupational em ploym ent
obtained fro m the sam ple of estab lish m en ts studied s e rv e only to

O ccupations and E arn in gs
The occupations se le c te d fo r study a re common to a v a r ie ty

the occupations lis te d and d e sc rib e d a re not p resented in the A - s e r ie s

1 The Lubbock Standard M etropolitan Statistical A re a consists of Lubbock County. The "workers within scope of study" estim ates shown in this table provide a reasonably accurate
descrip tion of the size and com position of the labor force included in the survey. The estim ates are not intended, however, to se rve as a basis of com parison with other employment indexes
fo r the a re a to m easu re em ploym ent trends or levels since (1) planning of wage su rveys req u ires the use of establishm ent data compiled considerably in advance of the p ayro ll period studied,
and (2) sm all establishm ents a re excluded from the scope of the survey.
2 The 1957 re vise d edition of the Standard Industrial C lassification Manual was used in classifying establishm ents by industry division.
3 Includes a ll establishm ents with total employment at or above the minimum lim itation. A ll outlets (within the area) of companies in such industries as trade, finance, auto rep a ir service,
and motion picture th e a te rs a re considered as 1 establishm ent.
4 Includes executive, p ro fessio n al, and other w o rk ers excluded from the separate office and plant categories.
5 Taxicabs and se rv ic e s incidental to w ater transportation w ere excluded.
6 This ind u stry d ivision is represen ted in estim ates fo r "all industries" and "nonmanufacturing" in the S e ries A tables, and fo r "all industries" in the S eries B tables. Separate p resen ­
tation of data fo r this d ivision is not made fo r one or m ore of the following reaso n s: (1) Employment in the division is too sm all to provide enough data to m erit separate study, (2) the sample
was not designed in itia lly to p erm it separate presentation, (3) response was insufficient o r inadequate to p erm it separate presentation, and (4) there is p o ssib ility of d isclosu re of individual
establishm ent data.
7 W orkers fro m this en tire industry division are represented in estim ates fo r "all industries" and "nonmanufacturing" in the S eries A tab les, but from the re a l estate portion only in
estim ates fo r "all industries" in the S e rie s B tables. Separate presentation of data fo r this division is not made fo r one or m ore of the reasons given in footnote 6 above.

Appendix: Occupational Descriptions
The primary purpose of preparing job descriptions for the Bureau’s wage surveys is to a ssist 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 Bu­
reau’ 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 in­
structed to exclude working supervisors, apprentices, learners, beginners, trainees, handicapped, part-time,
temporary, and probationary workers.
