1 San Francisco-O akland Metropolitan A r ea (Alam eda, Contra C osta, M arin, San F r a n cisco , San M ateo, and Solano Counties). The "w o rk ers within scope of study" estim ates shown in this table provide a
reasonably accurate description of the size arid com position of the labor force included in the survey. The estim ates are not intended, how ever, to serve as a b asis of com parison with other area employment in
dexes to m easure employment trends or le v e ls since ( l ) planning of wage surveys req uires the use of establishm ent data com piled considerably in advance of the pay period studied, and (2) sm all establishm ents
are excluded from the scope of the survey.
2 Includes all establishm ents with total em ployment at or above the m in im u m -size lim itation. A ll outlets (within the area) of companies in such industries as trade, finance, auto repair se rv ice , and m otionpicture theaters are considered as 1 establishm ent.
3 Includes executive, technical, p rofession al, and other w orkers excluded from the separate office and plant categories.
4 A lso excludes taxicab s, and se rv ic e s incidental to water transportation. San F r a n c isc o 's transit system is municipally operated, and is therefore excluded, by definition, from the scope of the studies.
5 E stim ate relates to real estate establishm ents only.

H otels; personal se r v ic e s; bu sin ess se r v ic e s; automobile repair shops; radio broadcasting and television; motion pictures; nonprofit m em bership organizations; and engineering and architectural se r v ic e s.
7 This industry division is represented in estim ates for "a l l in d u stries" and "nonmanufacturing" in the Series A and B tables, although coverage w as insufficient to justify separate presentation of data.

Appendix: Job Descriptions
21
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 inter establishment and
interarea comparability of occupational content, the Bureau's job descriptions may differ signifi
cantly from those in use in individual establishments or those prepared for other purposes.
In
applying these job descriptions, the Bureau's field representatives are instructed to exclude work
ing supervisors, apprentices, learners, beginners, trainees, handicapped workers, part-time,
temporary, and probationary workers.
