Y. Introduction T his area is one of sev er a l im portant in d u strial cen ters in which the U .S . D epartm ent of L a b o r's B ureau of Labor S ta tistics has conducted su rveys of occupational earnings and related wage b en efits on an areaw ide b a s is . In this area, data w ere obtained by personal v isits of B ureau field econ om ists 1 to rep resen tative estab lish m en ts within six broad industry division s: M anufacturing; transportation, 2 com m unication, and other public u tilities; w h olesale trade; reta il trade; fin an ce, in su ran ce, and real estate; and s e r v ic e s . M ajor in dustry groups excluded from th ese stu d ies are governm ent operations and the con stru ction and ex tractive in d u stries. E stab lish m en ts having few er than a p rescrib ed num ber of w ork ers are om itted a lso b ecau se they furnish in su fficien t em ploym ent in the occupations studied to w a r rant in clu sion . W herever p o ssib le, separate tabulations are provided for each of the broad industry d iv isio n s. T hese su rveys are conducted on a sam ple b a sis b ecau se of the u n n ecessary c o st involved in surveying all esta b lish m en ts. To obtain appropriate accu racy at m inim um co st, a greater proportion of large than of sm a ll estab lish m en ts is stu died. In com bining the data, how ever, all estab lish m en ts are given their appropriate w eight. E stim a tes b ased on the estab lish m en ts studied are p resen ted , th erefo re, as r e lating to all estab lish m en ts in the industry grouping and area, e x cept for those below the m inim um siz e studied. O ccupations and E arnings The* occupations selec te d for study are com m on to a v ariety of m anufacturing and nonm anufacturing in d u stries. O ccupational c la s sifica tio n is based on a uniform se t of job d escrip tion s d esigned to take account of in terestab lish m en t variation in duties w ithin the sam e job. (See appendix for listin g of th ese d e sc r ip tio n s.) E arnings data are p resen ted (in the A -s e r ie s tab les) for the follow ing types of occupa tions: (a) O ffice cle r ic a l; (b) p ro fessio n a l and techn ical; (c) m ain te nance and powerplant; and (d) cu stod ial and m aterial m ovem ent. 1 Data w ere obtained by m ail from som e of the sm a ller tab lish m en ts for which v is its by B ureau field eco n o m ists in the la st previous su rvey indicated em ploym ent in rela tiv ely few of the o c cu pations stu died. Unusual changes reported by m a il w ere verified with em p lo y e r s. R ailroad s; fo rm erly excluded from the scop e of th ese stu d ies, have been added in n early all of the areas to be studied during the w in ter of 1959-60; ra ilroad s w ill be added in the rem aining a rea s next y e a r. F or scope of su rvey in this area, se e footnote to " transporta tion, com m u nication, and other public u tilities" in table 1. O ccupational em ploym ent and earn in gs data are shown for fu ll-tim e w o rk ers, i. e . , th ose h ired to w ork a regu lar w eekly sch ed ule in the given occupational c la ssific a tio n . E arnings data exclude prem ium pay for overtim e and for work on w eek en d s, h olid a ys, and late sh ifts. N onproduction b on u ses are exclu d ed a lso , but c o st-o fliving bonuses and incen tive earn in gs are inclu ded. W here w eekly hours are reported, as for office c le r ic a l occu p ation s, referen ce is to the work sch ed u les (rounded to the n ea rest half hour) for which stra ig h t-tim e sa la r ie s are paid; average w eekly earn in gs for th ese occupations have been rounded to the n ea rest half d o lla r. A verage earnin gs of m en and w om en are p resen ted sep arately for selec te d occupations in which both se x e s are com m only em p loyed . D ifferen ces in pay le v e ls of m en and w om en in th ese occupations are la rg ely due to (lj d ifferen ces in the d istrib u tion of the se x e s am ong in d u stries and estab lish m en ts; (2) d ifferen ces in sp ecific duties p er form ed, although the occupations are appropriately c la ss ifie d w ithin the sam e su rvey job d escrip tion ; and (3) d ifferen ces in length of s e r v ice or m erit review when individual sa la r ie s are adjusted on this b asis. Longer average se r v ic e of m en would re su lt in higher average pay when both se x e s are em p loyed w ithin the sam e rate ran ge. Job d escrip tion s u sed in c la ssify in g em p lo yees in th ese su rveys are u su ally m ore gen era lized than those u sed in individual estab lish m en ts to allow for m inor d ifferen ces am ong esta b lish m en ts in sp ecific duties p erform ed. O ccupational em ploym ent estim a tes rep resen t the total in all estab lish m en ts w ithin the scop e of the study and not the num ber actu ally su rveyed . B ecau se of d ifferen ces in occupational stru ctu re am ong esta b lish m en ts, the estim a tes of occupational em ploym ent obtained from the sam ple of estab lish m en ts studied serv e only to indicate the rela tiv e im portance of the jobs stu died. T h ese d ifferen ces in o c cu pational stru ctu re do not m a teria lly affect the accu racy of the ea rn ings data.

"Plant w ork ers" in clude w orking forem en and all n on su p ervisory w ork ers (including lea d m en and tra in ees) engaged in nonoffice fu n ction s. A d m in istrative, ex ecu tiv e, and p ro fessio n a l em p lo y ees, and fo rce-a cco u n t con stru ction em p lo yees who are u tilized as a sep arate work fo rce are exclu d ed . C a feteria w ork ers and routem en are exclu d ed in m anufacturing in d u s tries, but are included as plant w ork ers in nonm anufacturing in d u stries. 2 S h ift d if fe r e n t ia l d a ta (ta b le B - l ) a r e lim it e d to m a n u fa c tu rin g in d u s t r ie s .

T his is essen tial in order to permit the grouping of occupational wage rates representing comparable job content. Because of this em phasis on interestablishm ent and interarea com parability of occupational content, the Bureau’s job descriptions may differ significantly from those in use in individual establishm ents or those prepared for other purposes. In applying these job descriptions, the B ureau's field econom ists are instructed to exclude working supervisors, apprentices, learners, beginners, trainees, handicapped workers, part-tim e, temporary, and probationary w orkers.
