The 1953 report (BJLS Bull. 1157-1) also provides a tabulation of the rate of pay for holiday work. The 1953 and 1957 reports provide tabulations of wage structure characteristics, labormanagement agreements, and overtime pay provisions. The 1954 report includes data on frequency of wage payments, and pay provisions for holidays falling on nonworkdays. A directory indicating date of study and the price of the reports, as well as reports for other major areas, is available upon request. Current reports on occupational earnings and supple mentary wage practices in the Philadelphia area are also availa ble for auto dealer repair shops (May 1958), and men's and boys' suits and coats (March 1958). A similar report for ma chinery industries will be available in April 1959. Union scales, indicative of prevailing pay levels, are available for the following trades or industries: Building construction, printing, localtransit operating employees, and motortruck drivers and helpers. 2 13 14 14 15 16 18 19 Occupational Wage Survey— Philadelphia, Pa. Introduction This area is one of several important industrial centers in which the U* S. Department of Labor1s Bureau of Labor Statistics has conducted surveys of*occupational earnings and related wage benefitp on an areawide basis* In this area, data were obtained by per sonal visits of Bureau field agents 1 to representative establishments within six broad industry divisions: Manufacturing; transportation (excluding railroads), communication, and other public utilities; whole sale trade; retail trade; finance, insurance, and real estate; and serv ices* Major industry groups excluded from these studies, besides railroads, are government operations and the construction and ex tractive industries* Establishments having fewer than a prescribed number of workers are omitted also because they furnish insufficient employment in the occupations studied to warrant inclusion*2 Wher ever possible, separate tabulations are provided for each of the broad industry divisions* These surveys are conducted on a sample basis because of the unnecessary cost involved in surveying all establishments. To obtain appropriate accuracy at minimum cost, a greater proportion of large than of small establishments is studied* In combining the data, how ever, all establishments are given their appropriate weight. Estimates based on the establishments studied are presented, therefore, as re lating to all establishments in the industry grouping and area, ex cept for those below the minimum size studied. Occupations and Earnings The occupations selected for study are common to a variety of manufacturing and nonmanufacturing industries. Occupational clas sification is based on a uniform set of job descriptions designed to take account of interestablishment variation in duties within the same job. (See appendix for listing of these descriptions.) Earnings data are presented (in the A -se rie s tables) for the following types of oc cupations: (a) Office clerical; (b) professional and technical; (c) main tenance and powerplant; and (d) custodial and material movement. 1 Data were obtained by mail: from some of the smaller estab lishments for which visits by Bureau field agents in the last previous survey indicated employment in relatively few of the occupations stud ied. Unusual changes reported by mail were verified with employers. 2 See table on page 2 for minimum-size establishment covered* Occupational employment and earnings data are shown for full-time workers, i. e *, those hired to work a regular weekly sched ule in the given occupational classification* Earnings data exclude premium pay for overtime and for work on weekends,, holidays, and late shifts. Nonproduction bonuses are excluded also, but cost-ofliving bonuses and incentive earnings are included* Where weekly hours are 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. Occupational employment estimates represent the total in all establishments within the scope of the study and not the numbet actu ally 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 occu pational structure do not materially affect the accuracy of the earn ings data. Establishment Practices and Supplementary Wage Provisions Information is presented also (in the B -series tables) on se lected establishment practices and supplementary benefits as they re late to office and plant workers. The term "office w orkers,11 as used in this bulletin, includes working supervisors and nonsupervisory workers performing clerical or related functions, and ex cludes administrative, executive, and professional personnel* "Plant workers" include working foremen and all nonsupervisory workers (including leadmen and trainees) engaged in nonoffice functions* Ad ministrative, executive, and professional employees, and force-account construction employees who are utilized as a separate work force are excluded. Cafeteria workers and routemen are excluded in manufac turing industries, but are included as plant workers in nonmanufac turing industries. Shift differential data (table B - l ) are limited to manufacturing industries. This information is presented both in terms of (a) estab lishment policy,3 presented in terms of total plant worker employ ment, and (b) effective practice, presented on the basis of workers 3 An establishment was considered as having a policy if it met either of the following conditions: (l) Operated late shifts at the time of the survey, or (2) had formal provisions covering- late shifts* 2 actually employed on the specified shift at the time of the survey. In establishments having varied differentials, the amount applying to a majority was used or, if no amount applied to a majority, the clas sification "other*' was used. In establishments in which some lateshift hours are paid at normal rates, a differential was recorded only if it applied to a majority of the shift hours. Minimum entrance rates (table B -2 ) relate only to the estab lishments visited. They are presented on an establishment, rather than on an employment basis. Paid holidays; paid vacations; and health, insurance, and pension plans are treated statistically on the basis that these are applicable to all plant or office workers if a majority of such workers are eligible or may eventually qualify for the practices listed. Scheduled hours are treated statistically on the basis that these are applicable to all plant or office workers if a majority are covered.4 Because of rounding, sums of individ ual items in these tabulations do not necessarily equal totals. The first part of the paid holidays table presents the num ber of whole and half holidays actually provided. The second part combines whole and half holidays to show total holiday time. The summary of vacation plans is limited to formal arrange ments, excluding informal plans whereby time off with pay is granted at the discretion of the employer. Separate estimates are provided according to employer practice in computing vacation payments, such as time payments, percent of annual earnings, or flat-sum amounts. However, in the tabulations of vacation allowances, payments not on a time basis were converted; for example, a payment of 2 percent of annual earnings was considered as the equivalent of 1 week’ s pay. Data are presented for all health, insurance, and pension plans for which at least a part of the cost is borne by the employer, excepting only legal requirements such as workmen’ s compensation and social security. Such plans include those underwritten by a com 4 Scheduled weekly hours for office workers (first section of mercial insurance company and those provided through a union fund or table B -3 ) in surveys made prior to late 1957 and early 1958 were paid directly by the employer out of current operating funds or from presented in terms of the proportion of women office workers em a fund set aside for this purpose. Death benefits are included as a ployed in offices with the indicated weekly hours for women workers. form of life insurance. Table 1.

Information is presented for all such plans to which the employer contributes. However, in New York and New Jersey, which have enacted temporary disability insurance laws which require em ployer contributions,8 plans are included only if the employer (1) con tributes more than is legally required, or fe) provides the employee with benefits which exceed the requirements of the law. Tabulations of paid sick-leave plans are limited to formal plans 6 which provide 5 The temporary disability laws in California and Rhode Island do not require employer contributions. 6 An establishment was considered as having a formal plan if it established at least the minimum number of days of sick leave that could be expected by each employee. Such a plan need not be written, but informal sick-leave allowances, determined on an individual basis, were excluded. full pay or a proportion of the worker’ s pay during absence from work because of -illness. Separate tabulations are provided according to (1) plans which provide full pay and no waiting period, and (2) plans providing either partial pay or a waiting period. In addition to the presentation of the proportions of workers who are provided sickness and accident insurance or paid sick leave, an unduplicated total is shown of workers who receive either or both types of benefits. Catastrophe insurance, sometimes referred to as extended medical insurance, includes those plans which are designed to protect employees in case of sickness and injury involving expenses beyond the normal coverage of hospitalization, medical, and surgical plans. Medical insurance refers to plans providing for complete or partial payment of doctors* fees. Such plans may be underwritten by commer cial insurance companies or nonprofit organizations or they may be self-insured. Tabulations of retirement pension plans are limited to those plans that provide monthly payments for the remainder of the worker’ s life. 4 Wage Trends for Selected Occupational Groups The table below presents indexes of salaries of office clerical workers and industrial nurses, and of average earnings of selected plant worker groups. For office clerical workers and industrial nurses, the indexes relate to average weekly salaries for normal hours of work, that is, the standard work schedule for which straight-time salaries are paid. For plant worker groups, they measure changes in straight-time hourly earnings, excluding premium pay for overtime and for work on week ends, holidays, and late shifts. The indexes are based on data for selected key occupations and include most of the numerically important jobs within each group. The office clerical data are based on women in the following 18 jobs: Billers, machine (billing machine); bookkeepingmachine operators, class Aand B; Comptometer operators; clerks, file, class A and B; clerks, order; clerks, payroll; key-punch operators; office girls; secretaries; stenographers, general; switchboard opera tors; switchboard operator-receptionists; tabulating-machine operators; transcribing-machine operators, general; and typists, class A and B. The industrial nurse data are based on women industrial nurses. Men in the following 10 skilled maintenance jobs and 3 unskilled jobs were included in the plant worker data: Skilled— carpenters; electricians; machinists; mechanics; mechanics, automotive; millwrights; painters; pipefitters; sheet-metal workers; and tool and die makers; unskilled— janitors, porters, and cleaners; laborers, material handling; and watchmen. Average weekly salaries or average hourly earnings were computed for each of the selected occupations. The average salaries or hourly earnings were then multiplied by the average of 1953 and 1954 employment in the job. These weighted earnings for individual T a b le 2 . occupations were then totaled to obtain an aggregate for *each occupa tional group. Finally, the ratio of these group aggregates for a given year to the aggregate for the base period (survey month, winter 1952-53) was computed and the result multiplied by the base year index (100) to get the index for the given year. The indexes measure, principally, the effects of (l) general salary and wage changes; (2) merit or other increases in pay received by individual workers while in the same job; and (3) changes in the labor force such as labor turnover, force expansions, force reduc tions, and changes in the proportion of workers employed by estab lishments with different pay levels. Changes in the labor force can cause increases or decreases in the occupational averages without actual wage changes. For example, a force expansion might increase the proportion of lower paid workers in a specific occupation and re sult in a drop in the average, whereas a reduction in the proportion of lower paid workers would have the opposite effect. The movement of a high-paying establishment out of an area could cause the average earnings to drop, even though no change in rates occurred in other area establishments. The use of constant employment weights eliminates the effects of changes in the proportion of workers represented in each job in cluded in the data. Nor are the indexes influenced by changes in standard work schedules or in premium pay for overtime, since they are based on pay for straight-time hours. Indexes for the period 1953 to 1958 for workers in 17 major labor markets appeared in BL.S Bull. 1224-20, Wages and Related Benefits, 19 Labor Markets, Winter 1957-58.
