Introduction to the w ork schedules (rounded to the n ea rest half hour) fo r which straight-tim e sa la rie s are paid; average w eekly earnings fo r these occupations have been rounded to the n earest half d olla r. This a rea is 1 o f 82 labor markets in which the U .S . D e partm ent of L a b o r 's B ureau o f Labor Statistics has conducted s u r veys o f occupational earnings and related wage benefits on an a r e a wide b a s is . In this a rea , data w ere obtained by personal visits o f B ureau field econ om ists to representative establishm ents within six broad industry d iv ision s: M anufacturing; transportation, com m u n ica tion, and other public u tilitie s; wholesale trade; retail trade; finance, in su ran ce, and real esta te; and s e r v ic e s . M ajor industry groups exclu ded fro m these studies are governm ent operations and the c o n stru ction and ex tra ctiv e in d u stries. Establishm ents having few er than a p r e s crib e d num ber o f w ork ers are om itted also because they tend to furnish in su fficien t em ploym ent in the occupations studied to w arrant in clu sion . Separate tabulations are provided fo r each o f the broad industry division s which m eet publication c r ite r ia . A verage earnings of m en and wom en are presented separately fo r se le cte d occupations in which both sexes are com m only em ployed. D ifferen ces in pay le v e ls o f m en and wom en in these occupations are la rg e ly due to (1) d iffe re n ce s in the distribution o f the sexes among industries and establish m en ts; (2) d ifferen ces in sp e cific duties p er form ed , although the occupations are appropriately cla s s ifie d within the sam e survey jo b d escrip tion ; and (3) d ifferen ces in length of s e r v ice o r m e rit review when individual sa la ries are adjusted on this b a sis. L onger average se r v ic e o f m en would resu lt in higher average pay when both sex es are em ployed within the same rate range. Job d escrip tion s used in cla ssify in g em p loyees in these su rveys are usu ally m o re gen era lized than those used in individual establishm ents to allow fo r m inor d iffe re n ce s among establishm ents in s p e cific duties pe rfo rm e d . These surveys are conducted on a sample basis because o f the u n n ecessary c o s t involved in surveying all establishm ents. To obtain optim um a ccu ra cy at m inim um co st, a greater proportion of large than o f sm all establish m en ts is studied. In com bining the data, how e v e r , all establish m en ts are given their appropriate weight. E stim ates based on the establish m en ts studied are presented, th e re fo re , as r e lating to all establish m en ts in the industry grouping and a rea , e x cep t fo r those below the m inim um size studied. O ccupational em ploym ent estim ates rep resen t the total in all establishm ents within the scop e o f the study and not the number actu ally su rveyed . B ecause o f d iffe ren ces in occupational structure among establish m en ts, the estim ates o f occupational em ploym ent obtained fr o m the sam ple o f establishm ents studied serve only to indicate the relative im portance o f the job s studied. These d ifferen ces in o ccu pational structure do not m a teria lly affect the a ccu ra cy o f the earn ings data. O ccupations and Earnings The occu pation s se le c te d fo r study are com m on to a va riety o f m anufacturing and nonm anufacturing in du stries. O ccupational c la s sifica tion is based on a u n iform set of job description s designed to take account o f in terestablishm ent variation in duties within the sam e jo b . (See appendix fo r listin g o f these d e s crip tio n s.) Earnings data are presen ted (in the A -s e r ie s tables) fo r the follow ing types o f o c c u pations: (a) O ffice c le r ic a l; (b) p rofession a l and technical; (c) m ainte nance and pow er plant; and (d) cu stodial and m aterial m ovem ent. E stablishm ent P r a c tic e s and Supplem entary Wage P rov ision s Inform ation is presented (in the B -s e r ie s tables) on selected establishm ent p ra ctice s and supplem entary benefits as they relate to o ffic e and plant w o r k e r s. The con cep t "o ffice w o r k e r s ," as used in this bulletin, includes working su p erv isors and nonsupervisory w ork ers p erform in g c le r ic a l o r related functions, and excludes admin istra tiv e , ex ecu tiv e, and p ro fe ssion a l p erson n el. "Plant w o rk e rs" in clude working forem en and all n on su p erv isory w ork ers (including leadmen and tra in ees) engaged in n onoffice fu n ction s. A dm inistrative, execu tive, and p ro fe ssio n a l e m p loy ees, and fo r c e -a c c o u n t con stru ction em p loyees who are u tilized as a separate w ork fo r c e are excluded. C a feteria w ork ers and routem en are excluded in m anufacturing indus tr ie s , but are included as plant w ork ers in nonmanufacturing industries. O ccupational em ploym ent and earnings data are shown fo r fu ll-tim e w o rk e rs, i . e . , those h ired to work a regular weekly sch ed ule in the given occupational cla ss ifica tio n . Earnings data exclude prem ium pay fo r ov ertim e and fo r w ork on weekends, h olida ys, and late sh ifts. N onproduction bonuses are excluded a lso , but c o s t - o f living bonuses and incentive earnings are included. W here weekly hours are rep orted , as fo r o ffic e c le r ic a l occupations, r e fe re n ce is 1 2 Shift d ifferen tial data (table B - l ) are lim ited to manufacturing in d u stries.

In establishm ents having v a ried 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 c la s sifica tion '‘o th e r " was u sed. In establishm ents in which som e la te shift hours are paid at n orm al ra tes, a differen tial was reco rd e d only if it applied to a m a jo rity o f the shift h ours.

The scheduled hours (table B -3 ) o f a m a jority o f the fi r s t shift w ork ers in an establishm ent are tabulated as applying to all o f the plant o r o ffic e w ork ers o f that establishm ent. P aid holidays; paid vacations; and health, in su ran ce, and pension plans (tables B -4 through B -6 ) are treated sta tistica lly on the b a sis that these are applicable to all plant o r o ffic e w ork ers if a m a jo rity o f such w ork ers are e li gible o r m ay eventually qualify fo r the p ra ctice s listed . Sums o f individual item s in tables B -3 through B -6 may not equal totals b e cau se o f rounding. The fir s t part o f the paid holidays table (table B -4 ) presents the num ber o f whole and half holidays actually provided. The second part com bin es whole and h alf holidays to show total holiday tim e . The sum m ary o f vacation plans (table B -5 ) is lim ited to f o r m al p o lic ie s , excluding in form a l arrangem ents w hereby time o ff with pay is granted at the d is cre tio n o f the e m p lo y e r. Separate estim ates are p rovided a ccord in g to em p loyer p ra ctice in com puting vacation paym ents, such as tim e paym ents, p ercen t o f annual earnings, o r fla t-su m am ounts. H ow ever, in the tabulations o f vacation pay, pay m ents not on a tim e b a sis w ere so con verted ; fo r exam ple, a payment o f 2 percen t o f annual earnings was co n sid e re d as the equivalent o f 1 w eek 's pay. Data are presented fo r a ll health, insurance, and pension plans (table B -6) fo r which at least a part o f the co st is born e by the e m p lo y e r, excepting only legal requ irem en ts such as w orkm en's com p en sation, socia l secu rity, and ra ilroa d retirem en t. Such plans include those underwritten by a c o m m e rcia l insurance com pany and those p r o vided through a union fund or paid d ire ctly by the em p loyer out o f cu rren t operating funds or fro m a fund set aside fo r this p u rpose. Death benefits are included as a fo rm of life insurance. Sickness and accident insurance is lim ited to that type of in surance under which pred eterm in ed cash payments are m ade d irectly to the insured on a weekly or m onthly b asis during illn ess o r acciden t disability. Inform ation is p resen ted fo r all such plans to which the em ployer contributes. H ow ever, in New Y ork and New J e rse y , which have enacted tem porary disability insurance laws which requ ire e m p lo y e r con tribu tion s,2 plans a re included only if the em p loyer (1) co n tributes m ore than is leg ally requ ired, o r (2) p rovid es the em ployee with benefits which exceed the requ irem en ts o f the law.

F or o ffice c le r ic a l w ork ers and industrial n urses, the p e r cents of change relate to average w eekly sa la ries fo r n orm al hours of work, that is, the standard w ork schedule fo r which straight-tim e salaries are paid. F or plant w orker groups, they m easu re changes in straight-tim e hourly earnings, excluding prem ium pay fo r o v e r tim e and fo r w ork on weekends, holidays, and late shifts. The p e r centages are based on data fo r selected key occupations and include m ost of the n u m erically im portant jo b s within each group. The o f fic e c le r ic a l data a re based on men and wom en in the follow ing 19 jo b s: B ookkeeping-m achine op era tors, c la s s B; cle r k s, accounting, c la s s A and B: clerk s, file , cla s s A, B, and C; cle rk s, o rd e r; cle rk s, pay ro ll; Com ptom eter op era tors; keypunch op era tors, c la s s A and B; o ffice boys and g ir ls ; s e c r e ta r ie s ; stenographers, general; sten ogra ph ers, sen ior; sw itchboard o p era tors; tabulating-m achine op era tors, cla ss B; and typists, cla s s A and B. The industrial nurse data a re based on m en and wom en industrial n urses. Men in the follow ing 8 skilled m aintenance job s and 2 unskilled jo b s w ere included in the plant w ork er data: Skilled— ca rpen ters; e le ctricia n s; m a ch in ists; m e chanics; m ech an ics, atuom otive; painters; p ip efitters; and tool and die m ak ers; unskilled— ja n itors, p o rte rs , and clea n ers; and la b o re rs, m aterial handling. A verage weekly sa la ries or average hourly earnings w ere com puted fo r each of the selected occupations. The average sa l a r ie s or hourly earnings w ere then m u ltiplied by the average em p loy m ent in the jo b during the p e rio d su rveyed in 1961. T hese weighted earnings fo r individual occupations w e re then totaled to obtain an a g gregate for each occupational group. F inally, the ratio o f these group aggregates fo r the one year to the aggregate fo r the other y e a r was computed and the d ifferen ce betw een the resu lt and 100 is the p ercen t of change fro m the one p eriod to the other. The percen t of change m e a su re s, p rin cip a lly , the e ffe cts of (1) general salary and wage changes, (2) m e r it or other in cre a s e s in pay receiv ed by individual w o rk e rs w hile in the sam e jo b , and (3) changes in the labor fo r c e such as la b or turnover, fo r c e expan sions, fo r c e reductions, and changes in the p rop ortion s o f w o rk e rs em ployed by establishm ents with d ifferen t pay le v e ls . Changes in the labor fo r c e can cause in cre a se s o r d e c r e a s e s in the occu pation al averages without actual wage changes. F or exam ple, a fo r c e expansion m ight in crea se the p rop ortion of low er paid w o rk e rs in a sp e c ific occupation and resu lt in a d rop in the average, w h ereas a redu ction in the prop ortion of low er paid w o rk e rs would have the op p osite effe ct. The m ovem ent of a high-paying establish m en t out of an a rea could cause the average earnings to drop , even though no change in rates o ccu rre d in other area establishm ents. The use of constant em ploym ent w eights elim in ates the e ffe cts of changes in the p rop ortion o f w o rk e rs rep resen ted in each jo b in cluded in the data. Nor a re the p ercen ts o f change influenced by changes in standard work sch edules o r in p rem iu m pay fo r ov ertim e, sin ce they a re based on pay fo r stra igh t-tim e h ou rs. The above text rep resen ts the m ethod used in computing a new trend s e r ie s . The expansion o f the labor m arket wage survey p rogram in 1961 m ade data available in 82 a rea s fo r the com putation of wage trends fo r selected jo b groupings. Sixty-one a rea s w ere surveyed in I960; p r io r to I960, cov era g e w as lim ited to 20 a rea s.

Appendix A: Changes in Occupational Descriptions stead of two (class A and B). The revised description for keypunch operator groups these workers into two defined classes (A and B) instead of a single category. Previously, data were presented separately for general stenographers and technical stenographers. The revision combines general stenographers, with more responsible duties, and technical stenographers to form a new senior stenographer category; other general stenographers are maintained in that classification. Since the Bureau’ s last survey in this area, occupational descriptions for three office jobs were revised in order to obtain salary information for more sp ecific categories. Therefore, data presented for these jobs in table A -l are not comparable to data presented in last year’ s bulletin. Revisions were made in the descriptions for file clerks, key punch operators, and stenographers. The revised description for file clerk groups these workers into three levels (class A, B, and C) in The revised occupational descriptions used this year are in cluded in appendix B. 17 Appendix B: Occupational Descriptions The primary purpose of preparing job descriptions for the Bureau’ s 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 is essential in order to permit 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 in structed to exclude working supervisors, apprentices, learners, beginners, trainees, handicapped, part-time, temporary, and probationary workers.
