Preface
This bulletin updates industry indexes of output per employee-hour
and output per employee for the industries currently included in the
U.S. Government's productivity measurement program.
The data cover the
years 1939 and 1947 to 1976.
Indexes are published for the first time
for the eating and drinking places industry.
An article providing
information about this new measure appears in the Monthly Labor Review,
September 1977.
The selected industries for which output per employee-hour indexes
are shown are not necessarily a representative cross-section.
They
should not be combined, therefore, to obtain an overall measure for
the entire U.S. economy or for any sector. Each index is intended to
represent only the change in output per employee-hour for the designated
industry or combination of industries.
However, the Bureau of Labor
Statistics does publish indexes of output per hour of all persons and
related measures for the private business sector, and the nonfarm
business, manufacturing, and nonfinancial corporate sectors.
These
productivity series show the relationship between gross product
originating in these sectors and employment and hours.
(The data are
presented in the Bureau of Labor Statistics press release, Productivity
and Costs (twice quarterly), in the Monthly Labor Review, and in
Employment and Earnings.)
The productivity measures in this bulletin describe the relationship
between output in real terms and the labor time involved in its production.
They show the changes from year to year in the amount of labor time required
to produce a unit of output.
Although these measures relate output to
employment and employee-hours, they do not measure the specific contri­
butions of labor, capital, or any other factor of production.
Rather,
they reflect the joint effect of a number of interrelated influences,
such as changes in technology; capital investment per worker; level of
output; utilization of capacity; layout and flow of material; managerial
skill, and skills and effort of the work force.
This bulletin was prepared in the Bureau's Office of Productivity
and Technology by Andrew Campbell, Richard Carnes, John Duke, Mary Farris,
John Ferris, Brian- Friedman, Catherine Gilbert, Ed Henneberger,
Clyde Huffstutler, Phyllis Otto, Elmer Persigehl, James Urisko,
V e m e t t e Washington, Patricia Wilder, and James York under the direction
of Horst Brand, John Carey, Arthur Herman, and Charles Ardolini, Chief,
Division of Industry Productivity Studies.

Highlights of Trends in Output Per Employee-Hour
Current Developments
Nearly all of the industries for which data are presented in this
report registered increases in output per employee-hour between 1975
and 1976. Only six industries had declines in productivity in 1976; in
1975 about one-half of the industries surveyed recorded declines in
productivity. This general expansion in productivity is consistent with the
performance of the nonfarm business sector as a whole where productivity
grew 4.1 percent in 1976, compared with 1.6 percent in 1975. Favorable
industry productivity growth in 1976 was associated with the general
economic recovery.
Motor vehicle manufacturing, one of the more economically significant
industries covered in this report, posted a substantial 9.1-percent advance
in productivity. All segments of the industry rebounded sharply from the
1974-75 recession, recording an overall 26.9-percent jump in output in
1976, while total employee-hours rose 16.3 percent. The strong productivity
gain was similar to advances occurring in earlier economic recovery years,
during which output also rose sharply.
Productivity in the steel industry increased by 7.3 percent in 1976.
This performance was in sharp contrast to 1975 when output per employeehour fell by 12.1 percent in the industry. Although production began to
decline during the latter part of 1976, for the year as a whole the industry’s
output was up 8.1 percent over 1975. Much of this output growth was due to
the motor vehicle industry’s strong demand for steel products. Although
steel industry employment dropped slightly, a more than offsetting increase
in average weekly hours resulted in a small gain in employee-hours of 0.8
percent.
Significant gains in productivity were recorded by a number of other
manufacturing industries. The aluminum rolling and drawing industry posted
slightly more than a 19-percent gain while the primary copper, lead,
and zinc industry and the tire and inner tube industry each experienced
increases of about 14 percent. Increases in output per employee-hour
of about 10 percent were posted by the sugar and the bottled and canned
soft drinks industries. Both the malt beverage and the copper rolling
and drawing industries had increases in productivity of slightly more than
9 percent.
Short-term gains in productivity usually are associated with increases
in output. This was the case in 1976, when output increases occurred in
all but 4 of the industries studied. In a number of the larger manufacturing
industries, sharp gains occurred in both output and productivity. In the
paper and pulp industry, for example, output grew by 15.1 percent as

1

demand picked up due to the expansion of the economy and restoring of
depleted inventories by customers. This large output increase, combined
with a 6.5-percent gain in employee-hours, resulted in an 8.0-percent
increase in productivity. The output of the gray iron foundries industry
grew by 8.7 percent in 1976 as the auto, steel, and new housing markets
rebounded, and productivity increased 5.7 percent. In sawmills,
productivity was up 5.3 percent as output increased 16.3 percent, for
the most part in response to the sharp recovery in new housing starts.
Productivity in the petroleum refining industry grew 4.5 percent while
output increased 7.9 percent.
Among the transportation industries, air transportation recorded
a 9.0-percent advance in productivity, and railroads an increase of 4.2
percent. Output increases in these two industries were due to the pickup
in economic activity in 1976; output had declined in the previous year.
Petroleum pipelines recorded a very small productivity gain of 0.3
percent in 1976.
With the exception of copper mining, which experienced a large
productivity gain of 17.3 percent, declines in productivity were recorded
in all of the mining industries measured. Coal mining recorded its
eighth consecutive annual decline in productivity, which dropped 4.0
percent in 1976. Although output increased by 2.6 percent, production
worker hours increased by 6.8 percent. Declines of 2.0 percent in
productivity were experienced by both the iron mining and nonmetallic
minerals industries.
Among other nonmanufacturing industries, large productivity increases
occurred in telephone communications — 10.5 percent — and gasoline
service stations — 9.8 percent. The hotels and motels industry and
new car dealers both experienced productivity gains of 4.9 percent;
for gas and electric utilities, the gain was 3.7 percent. Eating and
drinking places recorded a decline in productivity of 1.7 percent.
Accompanying the widespread gains in output was a marked improvement
in the employment situation in 1976; more than two-thirds of the industries
recorded increases. This is in sharp contrast to 1975 when about the
same proportion of the industries had declines in employment. One key
example is the motor vehicle industry where employment increased 9.9
percent in 1976, compared with a drop of 13.1 percent in 1975. Other
industries with large employment gains in 1976 included primary aluminum —
12.2 percent — copper rolling and drawing — 10.3 percent — and aluminum
rolling and drawing — 9.0 percent. All of these industries posted
employment declines in 1975.

Long-term Trends
All of the industries for which data are available experienced
productivity growth over the long-term period 1950-76. Increases (at
average annual rates) ranged from a high of 6.7 percent for air
transportation to a low of 1.0 percent for footwear manufacturing. The
high growth rate for air transportation can be largely attributed to the
replacement of piston-driven planes by jet aircraft, thereby increasing
the speed, capacity, and range of the industry’s fleet. Footwear
manufacturing, on the other hand, has had a low rate of productivity growth
because of the slow development and introduction of automatic equipment
which can handle changing styles and the large number of shoe sizes.
In the more recent period, 1971-76, the range of industry productivity
growth rates was wider than in the longer term — from an annual growth of
11.2 percent for the hosiery industry to a decline of 4.5 percent for
bituminous coal and lignite mining.
(See table 1 and chart 1)
Almost three-fourths of the industries recorded lower average annual
gains in output per employee-hour in the 1971-76 period than in the
preceding period — (1950-71 for many of the industries). The experience
of these industries matched the productivity record of the nonfarm business
sector of the economy as a whole. From 1950 to 1971 output per hour of all
persons in the nonfarm business sector grew 2.5 percent per year, while
from 1971 to 1976 the annual growth was only 1.0 percent.
Of the industries which experienced higher average annual
productivity growth during the 1971-76 period than in the earlier
period, several were significantly above the rate for the nonfarm
business sector. The hosiery industry was highest with 11.2 percent.
Recent advances in hosiery knitting machine speeds, automated dying
techniques, and new packaging equipment have contributed to the
significant advances in output per employee-hour for the hosiery
industry. Other industries with very high rates included wet corn
milling, 8.3 percent; malt beverages, 7.1 percent; synthetic fibers,
6.1 percent; aluminum rolling and drawing, 5.3 percent; and telephone
communications, 7.3 percent. With the exception of telephone communi­
cations, all experienced increases in output and declines in employeehours over the 5-year period. Telephone communications had a very
high rate of gain in output — 7.5 percent — and a small gain in
employee-hours — 0.2 percent.
On the other hand, several industries experienced productivity
declines during the 1971-76 period. Productivity in the coal mining
industry dropped the most — 4.3 percent per year. Among the reasons
for the productivity decline in coal mining were more stringent
safety regulations, the impact of work stoppages, labor contract
provisions requiring extra personnel, and the recent hiring of new,
inexperienced employees. Declines in productivity were also recorded
by the copper rolling and drawing industry — down 2.6 percent a year —
and in the iron mining industry, which experienced a 2.1-percent
annual decline. Other industries which had declining average annual

3

rates in productivity over this period were hydraulic cement, retail
food stores, cereal breakfast foods, and blended and prepared flour.
(For a graphic presentation of the long-term trends in output per
employee-hour and related data for the selected industries, see
charts 2-113.)
New Measure
Eating and Drinking Places (SIC 58) — Productivity in eating and
drinking establishments rose at an average annual rate of 1.0 percent
between 1958 and 1976. The increase in productivity was the result
of a 3.1-percent average annual gain in output and a 2.1-percent
increase in hours. During the same period, the nonfarm business sector
as a whole averaged a 2.2-percent productivity advance.
Factors that have contributed to the advance of productivity in
this industry are the spread of modern management techniques and improved
work organization, particularly in the rapidly expanding fast food
segment of the industry. Menus have been simplified and standardized,
and menu items are increasingly prepared off the premises, reducing
on-premise employee-hour requirements. Layouts of establishments are
designed to minimize walking time of personnel. Technological
innovations, such as the microwave oven, reduce cooking time. Finally,
the decline in the number of single-unit drinking establishments
(usually proprietorships and partnerships which are often marginal
enterprises), has resulted in an increase in productivity for the industry
as a whole.
There was an increase in spending for meals and snacks eaten away
from home which was accompanied by a shift from full-service restaurants
to fast-food establishments. This shift has given rise to consumption
of lower priced meals and greater frequency of eating out.
Employment in eating and drinking places (currently 3.7 million)
doubled between 1958 and 1976, rising at an average annual rate of
3.9 percent. Employment growth, like that of output, was comparatively
slow between 1958 and 1963 (1.7 percent annually), but accelerated from
1964 forward to an annual rate of 4.6 percent.
Productivity in eating and drinking places should continue to
improve. The adoption of laborsaving equipment and the preparation of
food off the premises are likely to be spurred by the expansion of corporate
establishments with their focus on efficient management. The continued
decline in the number of smaller, marginal firms, while perhaps a loss
in terms of customer convenience, will nonetheless help raise industry
productivity.

Methods and Data

The indexes of output per employee-hour are computed by dividing an
output index by an index of aggregate employee-hours. Corresponding
measures also are computed relating output to the number of employees. Thus,
the industry indexes presented measure changes in the relationship between
output and employment or employee-hours.
The output indexes are based primarily on the physical output of the
products of the industry combined with fixed period weights. Unit employeehour weights are used whenever possible to aggregate the data.
For many industries, however, unit labor weights are not available at
the detailed product level so substitute weights must be used. The most
common substitute weights are unit values, which are assumed to be
proportional to unit employee-hours. For many manufacturing industries,
however, employee-hour weights at the product-class level can be developed
from the available data. In such cases, a dual level weighting system is
used — unit value weights at the product level and unit labor weights at
the product-class level.
Although the weights relate to fixed periods, they are updated
periodically, usually in conjunction with economic censuses. Thus, most
indexes for 1947-58 are based on 1947 weights; for 1958-63, 1958 weights;
for 1963-67, 1963 weights; for 1967-72, 1967 weights; and for 1972-76, 1972
weights. For three industries — railroads, iron mining, and copper mining
— two alternative productivity measures, using different concepts of industry
output, are presented.
The output measure for usable iron ore (SIC 1011) has been revised.
In
earlier bulletins, the output index was based on the total number of long
tons of usable ore produced as published by the Bureau of Mines, U. S.
Department of the Interior and by the Bureau of the Census. Now detailed
information on the production of various types of usable ore,such as
concentrates and iron ore pellets made from taconite 5has been incorporated
into the output measure.
Several changes have also been made in the methods used to develop the
output and employee-hour indexes for class I railroads (SIC 401). In earlier
bulletins, the revenue traffic output index was developed by combining
freight ton-miles and passenger-miles with unit revenue weights. The unit
revenue weights have been replaced with unit labor cost weights because they
provide a better indication of the relative labor time required to provide
freight and passenger service. For the first time, the output index also
incorporates detailed commodity statistics in order to give those products
that require more labor time more importance in the index.

7

In addition to these changes, the measure of employee-hours for railroads
was revised to exclude the Interstate Commerce Commission (ICC) category
of "constructive allowances including vacations and allowances." This
category includes time paid for but not worked and is not consistent with
the other railroad employment categories used in the hours index.
Periodically, the output indexes for most of the measures are adjusted
to levels based on data reported in the economic censuses for mining,
manufacturing, and business. The most current adjustments presented in
this report reflect data from the 1972 economic censuses.
Employment and employee-hour indexes are developed primarily from basic
data compiled by the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) and the Bureau of
the Census. In concept, indexes based on employee-hour data from the
Bureau of the Census relate to plant hours only. Employee-hour data from
BLS include not only hours at work but also payroll hours such as vacations,
holidays, and sick leave paid by the establishment directly to the employee. 1/
In general, because of increases in paid leave during the period, output per
employee-hour worked would tend to show a somewhat higher rate of gain than
output per employee-hour paid. However, actual differences may result from
statistical limitations in the data as well as from differences in concepts.
This report includes indexes of output per employee-hour and output per
employee.
In most cases, the indexes are shown for all employees,
production workers, and nonproduction workers. 2/ Although both the Bureau
of the Census and BLS provide data on production worker hours, neither
source provides annual data by industry on nonproduction worker or all
employee-hours. Therefore, the nonproduction worker hours are estimated.
The estimates of aggregate nonproduction worker hours for the
manufacturing industries are derived from published employment data and
from estimates of average annual hours paid or worked per nonproduction
worker. Prior to 1968, the estimates of average annual hours paid were
calculated by multiplying the number of workweeks in the year by the
scheduled weekly hours. Estimated hours for vacations, holidays, dis­
ability, and personal time off were subtracted from average annual hours
paid to obtain an estimate of average annual hours worked. Vacation and
holiday trends were based on studies by the U. S. Department of Health,

1/ Indexes for the railroad transportation industry are based on data
from the Interstate Commerce Commission and are related primarily to hours
at work.
2/ The term "production workers" covers manufacturing and mining
employees who work at the plant or mine and who are generally in nonsupervisory occupations. The remaining employees, such as professional,
technical, clerical, supervisory, etc., are identified as "nonproduction
workers."

8

Education, and Welfare, and on data from BLS surveys. Personal time off
was estimated as a constant on the basis of data obtained from various
sources. Since 1968, the estimates of average annual hours paid and
average annual hours worked have been based directly on data collected
in the BLS biennial survey, Employee Compensation in the Private Nonfarm
Economy.
For four l!service,! industries — retail food stores; gasoline service
stations; eating and drinking places; and hotels, motels, and tourist courts —
measures of the hours of partners, proprietors, and supervisory (nonproduction)
workers were developed. Except for hotels, motels, and tourist courts,
estimates were also made for the hours of unpaid family workers. Average
weekly hours worked for partners, proprietors, and unpaid family workers were
obtained from unpublished data collected in the Current Population Survey.
The data were compiled for the BLS by the Bureau of the Census. Average
weekly hours worked by supervisory employees were obtained from the 1960
and 1970 censuses of population. Estimates for intercensal years were
derived using extrapolation and linear interpolation techniques.
All employee-hour estimates for the manufacturing industries are derived
by summing the aggregate hours for production workers and the estimated hours
for nonproduction workers. Hours of all persons are derived by summing the
aggregate hours for paid employees, partners, proprietors, and unpaid family
workers.
Manufacturing indexes involving nonproduction worker hours are subject
to a wider margin of error than are the indexes involving only production
worker hours because it is necessary to estimate the average hours of non­
production workers.
In general, any errors in these estimates, however,
would have a relatively insignificant effect on the trend in the hours for
all employees.
The output indexes and employee-hour components of the industry
productivity indexes are based on data from a number of different sources
which are identified in the accompanying tables. For most of the industries,
the 1976 output indexes are based on the data sources that are regularly
used. However, for some industries, the normal data sources are not as yet
available, and other information, such as the Federal Reserve Board output
indexes, the Current Industrial Reports of the Bureau of the Census, and
trade association data, were used. For those industries using the Bureau of
the Census or the Interstate Commerce Commission as the primary source of
employment and employee-hours, the 1976 indexes were developed by linking
employment and employee-hour data from BLS, since 1976 Census data are not
yet available. Therefore, all 1976 output per employee-hour measures are
considered preliminary and are subject to revision.
The indexes refer to the standard reference base 1967=100 and, beginning
in 1972, conform to the 1972 Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) system.

The ayerage annual rates of change published in this bulletin are
based on the linear least squares trends of the logarithms of the index
numbers. Average annual rates of change for any time periods shown in
this report are available on request from the Bureau of Labor Statistics.
More detailed information on the methods, limitations, and data sources
is contained in the BLS Handbook of Methods, BLS Bulletin 1910 (1976) ,
Chapter 31, and in a number of individual industry reports. Industry reports
as well as additional information are available on request from the Bureau of
Labor Statistics. The handbook is for sale by the Superintendent of
