1 For the most recent Presidential report, see Pay Increases for Certain Civilian Employees and Members of the
Uniformed Services, Message from the President of the United States, 89th C on g., 1st s e s s., House of Representatives,
Document 170 (May 12, 1965). See also Federal Statutory Salary System s, Communication from the President of the United
States Transmitting Joint Annual Report on Federal Statutory Pay Systems, Pursuant to the Federal Salary Reform Act
of 1962, 89th C ong., 1st se ss., House o f Representatives, Document 174 (May 17, 1965). The Salary Reform Act
does not apply to Federal manual workers, whose wages are tied to private industry wages in the localities where
they work. The act also does not apply to employees in some agencies, such as the Tennessee Valley Authority,
coming under separate pay systems.
2 See, for exam ple, National Survey of Professional, Administrative, Technical, and Clerical Pay, FebruaryMarch 1965 (BLS Bulletin 1469, 1965).
3 The term supplementary compensation is not more precise than fringe benefits, but it avoids some of the
am biguities of the latter, which im plies that the practices are a sm all insignificant appendage to the wage and salary
structure, voluntary on the part o f the employer, and of exclusive benefit to the employee. None of these im pli­
cations fit current conditions.

* Conceptually, sick leave can be classified either as a form of paid leave or as a health benefit program. In
tabulating data for all nonproduction employees combined, sick leave was included as a health benefit program. How­
ever, in computing expenditure rates for individual employee groups, sick leave was included as a type of paid leave,
since aggregrate expenditures for all health benefit programs were not determined by employee group.

Employment figures pertain to total employees in the unit, not to the number o f nonproduction employees.
3 The terms "nonexempt" and "exempt" pertain to application o f regulations under the Fair Labor Standards Act.
The former group is subject to the act's overtime provisions, while the latter is not.
In general, the nonexempt
group consists o f nonsupervisory workers, whereas the exempt group is made up of professional, administrative, and
executive employees.
More detail on this point is in appendix A.
4 In addition to being presented separately, payments to upper management employees are included in the all­
exempt-employee figures.

Chapter II. Expenditures for Supplements
Pay supplements may be grouped in several ways.
For example, they
may be classified according to the type of benefit provided, thereby taking into
account the fact that individual items may complement each other or serve as
substitute means of providing a general type of benefit. A second method of
classification relates supplements to the manner in which expenditures are made,
i. e. , payments which are part of basic salaries are in one category, payroll
expenditures in addition to basic salaries in a second group, and outlays in ad­
dition to payroll in a third.
These two approaches are followed in this study,
the former being used for data applying to all nonproduction employees combined
and the latter applying to individual groups of white-collar employees.
A ll Nonproduction Employees
Paid Leave, Excluding Sick Leave.
The widespread adoption of paid
leave plans for white-collar employees is revealed clearly in table 3. All re­
porting units had expenditures for vacations, and all but one made holiday pay­
ments. Payments for military, jury, witness, voting, or personal leave (here­
after referred to as miscellaneous leave) were less frequent, but still occurred
in over 9 out of 10 reporting units. Such payments were least common in manu­
facturing industry units with 250—999 employees, but even here were found in
8 out of 10 units.
The average reporting unit paid 8 percent of basic salaries for total
paid leave, excluding sick leave. Vacations were the major item, 4 .8 percent.
Holiday pay added another 2. 9 percent, and miscellaneous paid leave only 0. 3 per­
cent.
On the average, units in manufacturing and nonmanufacturing industries
spent approximately the same percentages of pay for the three leave items com­
bined.
However, expenditures were greater in reporting units with 1,000 em ­
ployees or more as compared to those with 250—999 employees— 8. 5 as against
7. 6 percent.
Concentration on average expenditures disregards the considerable varia­
tion in level of payments in individual reporting units. Three units showed outlays
between 3 and 4 percent while, at the other extreme, two units reported expendi­
tures between 13 and 14 percent. Nevertheless, there was a strong tendency for
averages to cluster toward the center of the distribution. Three out of four units
reporting expenditure figures fell in the range of 6—10 percent.
Particularly
interesting is a comparison of the distributions of holiday pay expenditures in
manufacturing and nonmanufacturing industries, the former showing much less
variation.
This reflects the diverse practices in nonmanufacturing industries,
which include, among others, retail trade companies, commonly having relatively
few paid holidays, and financial institutions, often having many paid holidays.7
Additional information on variation in amount of expenditure is shown
in chart 3, depicting the range within which the middle 50 percent of the units
actually reporting expenditures were found.
The general position of a bar in
relation to the base line is a measure of the magnitude of expenditures, while
the length of a bar indicates dispersion among units with respect to expenditure

level. (The median value, also shown, is the central value in data ranked ac­
cording to level of expenditures.
It is the dividing line above and below which
the number of units reporting expenditures are the sa m e.)
Retirement Programs.
Each of the reporting units in the survey was
covered by a legally required retirement program— either old-age, survivors,
and disability insurance (social security—OASDI) or railroad retirement. In ad­
dition, close to 90 percent of the units had expenditures for a private plan. There
was no substantial difference between manufacturing and nonmanufacturing indus­
tries in the relative frequency of expenditures for private plans; however, such
payments were more common in the larger units (table 4).
Average expenditures for all retirement programs, public and private,
added 7 .4 percent to basic salaries.
Nonmanufacturing industries had higher
expenditures than manufacturing units (8 .4 versus 6 .8 percent) and larger units
spent more than smaller units (7. 7 as against 7 percent). Interestingly, whereas
at one time public plans were the primary ones, in 1963^ private plans entailed
the greater average employer outlay for all reporting units— 4 .9 compared to
2. 6 percent. The average employer payment for private plans in units with such
expenditures was 5. 5 percent.
There is a striking contrast between the degree of variation in em ­
ployer expenditures for legally required and private plans. This contrast is not
surprising. In 1963, the employer's tax rate for OASDI was 35/g percent of the
first $4 ,8 0 0 of each employee's pay. The railroad retirement tax was 71/* per­
cent, and was based on the first $400 of monthly railroad compensation for the
period to November 1 and on the first $450 thereafter.
Thus, the degree to
which expenditures as a percent of basic salaries differ among units for a legally
required plan is relatively small, being dependent on the extent of variation in
the amount and frequency with which individual employee earnings exceed the
statutory ceiling.
On the other hand, much variation is to be expected among
private plans, since expenditures for them are influenced by many forces, such
as liberality of benefits, age composition of the work force, method of financing,
and extent of funding past-service liabilities.
Unemployment Programs. As with retirement programs, each of the
reporting units in the survey was covered by a legally required unemployment
program, either the Federal-State unemployment compensation program or rail­
road unemployment insurance. However, employer expenditures for private plans
providing benefits to laid-off employees were considerably less frequent than pay­
ments to private retirement programs.
Just under half of the reporting units
paid severance or dismissal pay and less than 1 out of 20 had expenditures for
supplemental unemployment benefits (SUB).
Four-fifths of the units reporting
SUB payments were in manufacturing industries and had 1,000 employees or
more (table 5). 8
On an all-reporting-unit basis, expenditures for all unemployment pro­
grams averaged 1. 6 percent and consisted almost exclusively of outlays for legally
required programs— 1. 5 percent.
Even in units which had severance and dis­
m issal pay or SUB expenditures, payments averaged only 0 .3 percent for each
and rarely went as high as 1 percent.

— ____________ ________

p

A BLS stud/ o f provisions in major collective bargaining agreements, mainly covering b lu e-colla r workers, also
found a concentration o f SUB plans in manufacturing industries. See Major C ollective Bargaining Agreements: Supple­
mental Unemployment Benefit Plans and Wage Employment Guarantees (BLS Bulletin 1425-3, 1965).




13

Health Benefit Programs, All but one of the units reported expenditures
for one or more health benefit programs (table 6).
These programs take on a
variety of forms. Some, such as sick leave and sickness and accident (wage and
salary continuance) insurance, are designed to continue all or part of the salary
of an employee absent from work because of illness. Others, such as hospitaliza­
tion, medical, and surgical insurance, reimburse employees for expenses growing
out of illness.
Also included are payments occasioned by the death of an em­
ployee.
Included are legally required programs— workmen's compensation, for
example— and private plans. Since to a considerable extent these programs are
complementary rather than alternative means of meeting a particular need, a
reporting unit's compensation package usually included a number of programs.
The vast majority of reporting units had expenditures for each of the following
programs: Legally required work-connected disability programs; sick leave; life
insurance, accidental death and dismemberment insurance, and death benefits;
and hospitalization, surgical, and medical plans, and sickness and accident insur­
ance. Outlays for "other" legally required programs, consisting of payments under
temporary disability insurance laws (which exist in four States) and payments into
the Ohio Disabled Workmen's Relief Fund, were found in 1 out of 6 units.
Expenditures for all health benefit programs combined averaged 4. 2 per­
cent, and consisted mainly of outlays for private plans. Reflecting the low in­
cidence of accidents among white-collar employees, legally required workconnected disability programs entailed expenditures of only 0 . 3 percent. "Other"
legally required programs resulted in average payments of less than 0. 05 percent
for all units and 0. 2 percent in units with expenditures. Outlays for private plans
encompassed both direct payments to employees, i. e. , sick leave, and nonpayroll
expenditures, primarily payments to insurance companies or funds for health,
accident, and life insurance; the former amounted to 1. 5 percent for all reporting
units and the latter to 2. 5 percent. Generally, only minor variations in average
expenditures existed among industry and size groups, and were more important
for private plans. Particularly notable is the higher expenditure for hospitaliza­
tion, surgical, and medical plans, and sickness and accident insurance in manu­
facturing industries.
Other Programs. In addition to the items already discussed, several
other programs were included in the study— savings and thrift plans, yearend
and other special bonuses, and penalty pay (overtime pay and shift differentials).
These three programs varied in frequency of occurrence. Only 1 of 10 reporting
units had payments for savings and thrift plans, and half had expenditures for
yearend and other special bonuses (table 7).
On the other hand, some penalty
pay was nearly universal, with almost all units paying overtime and close to
half paying shift differentials (table 8).
Because of their limited occurrence, savings and thrift plans involved
only a minor average expenditure for all reporting units— 0. 3 percent. The av­
erage outlay in all units with expenditures was 2. 5 percent, ranging from 2. 1 per­
cent in manufacturing industry units with 250—999 employees to 3 .4 percent in
nonmanufacturing industry units with 1,000 employees or more.
Expenditures
for yearend and other special bonuses averaged 2. 3 percent for all units and
4. 6 percent in units actually having such payments. Interestingly, expenditures
for supplements were greater in units with 1,000 employees or more as a general
rule, but bonus payments showed a reverse pattern, being greater in the smaller
units.9 Total penalty pay, 3.2 percent for all units, consisted predominantly of
overtime pay.
Shift differentials added only 0 .2 percent to the expenditures.
9 A BLS stud/ o f production workers
with under 100 employees than in units
Expenditures for Selected Supplementary
Payroll Hours: Manufacturing Industries,




in manufacturing industries found higher bonus expenditures in establishments
with either 100-499 employees or 500 employees or more.
See Employer
Compensation Practices for Production and Related Workers; Composition o f
1962 (BLS Bulletin 1428, 1965), p. 76.

14

Even in units with shift payments, these premiums amounted to only 0 .4 percent.
Total overtime pay of 3 percent for all units consisted of overtime paid at straighttime rates, 2. 1 percent, and overtime paid at premium rates, 0. 9 percent. The
relationship between overtime at straight-time and premium rates clearly reflects
the influence of the practice of paying nonexempt employees time and one-half for
overtime work. 10
Expenditures for savings and thrift plans, bonuses, and penalty pay varied
considerably among the units making these outlays. Particularly striking is the
diversity of bonus payments.
Seventy-seven units reported expenditures under
1 percent, while 17 reported expenditures of 15 percent and over.
Variations
in expenditures for savings and thrift plans and bonuses are the result of con­
siderable differences among company plans.
On the other hand, differences in
the level of company expenditures for premium pay are mainly a function of varia­
tions in the volume of overtime work.
Contributory and Noncontributory Private Welfare Plans. Important in­
sights into the operation of private welfare plans can be gained by examining the
relative frequency of noncontributory and contributory plans and by contrasting
expenditure patterns under these two types of plans.
One-fourth of the units
reporting health, accident, and life insurance plans paid the full cost of the plans;
employees in three-fourths of the units paid part of the cost of one or more of
these plans (table 9).
Frequently, employers paid the total cost of some plans
and shared the cost of others with the employees. Therefore, the relative fre­
quency of noncontributory arrangements was greater for life insurance, accidental
death and dismemberment insurance, and death benefits; and for hospitalization,
surgical, and medical plans, and sickness and accident insurance individually
than for total health, accident, and life insurance. Nevertheless, even for the
two components separately, less than half of the reporting units paid the full cost.
In contrast to the findings for health, accident, and life insurance, private pen­
sion plans did not involve employee contributions in 3 out of 5 units with plans. 11
The employer's share of the total cost was over half in 4 of 5 units with
both employer and employee contributions for pension and retirement benefits.
Similarly, about two-thirds of the employers with contributory arrangements paid
over half the cost of hospitalization, surgical, and medical plans, and sickness
and accident insurance. On the other hand, quite frequently employers contrib­
uted a smaller share of the cost of life insurance, accidental death and dis­
memberment insurance, and death benefits— 2 out of 5 employers with contribu­
tory plans paid over 25 through 50 percent of the cost.
The relation between employer expenditures under noncontributory and
contributory plans is interesting.
In the case of health, accident, and life in­
surance, employer expenditures were higher under noncontributory than contribu­
tory plans— 3. 1 as compared to 2 .4 percent. This relationship was also found in
separate tabulations for life insurance, accidental death and dismemberment insur­
ance, and death benefits; and for hospitalization, surgical, and medical plans, and
sickness and accident insurance.
On the other hand, no clear difference was
10 For purposes o f this stud/, overtime at premium rates was defined as that part o f total overtime pay which
was above regular straight-time pay, e. g . , the half tim e o f tim e and o n e -h a ll The straight-time portion o f total
overtime pay was tabulated as overtime at straight-time rates.
11 A 1965 study by the Bureau o f Labor Statistics o f about 15,000 single-em ployer private pension plans found
that 7 out o f 10 plans covering salaried employees were noncontributory. See The Older Am erican Worker; Age Dis­
crimination in Employment. Report o f the Secretary o f Labor to the Congress Under Section 715 o f the Civil Rights
A ct o f 1964, Research Materials (June 1965), p. 28. Additional information on the relative importance o f contribu­
tory and noncontributory health, insurance, and pension plans is found in Health and Insurance Benefits and Pension
Plans for Salaried Employees. Spring 1963 (BLS Bulletin 1405, 1964); and Part II o f BLS Bulletin 1345-83, cited

found for pension and retirement plans for which employer expenditures were
higher under contributory plans in reporting units with 250—999 employees (5. 8 as
compared to 5. 1 percent) and higher under noncontributory plans in the larger
units (5. 6 versus 4. 9 percent). Although not conclusive evidence, these findings
suggest that employee contributions for health, accident, and life insurance tend
to defray part of the cost of a fixed benefit package, whereas worker contribu­
tions for retirement programs frequently purchase additional benefits.
With but
a single exception (hospitalization, surgical, and medical plans, and sickness
and accident insurance in nonmanufacturing industry units with 250—999 employ­
ees), in each of the industry-size groups average employer expenditures con­
sistently rose for each of the benefits studied as the employer's share of the
total expenditure under contributory plans increased.
Employee Contributions.
While the emphasis in the study was on em­
ployer expenditures, data were collected also on employee payments under con­
tributory private welfare plans. The average employee contribution in units with
contributory health, accident, and life insurance was 1. 3 percent of basic salaries.
The figure for pension and retirement plans was 2 percent (table 10). In both
of these cases, there was relatively little variation among industry-size groups,
and relatively few units reported employee contributions of 3 percent and over.
Moreover, in both cases, the average employee contribution was less than the
corresponding average employer expenditure under contributory plans.
Expenditures for Individual Employee Groups
In order to compare expenditures for individual employee groups, em­
ployers' payroll expenditures were collected separately for nonexempt nonproduc­
tion employees; exempt employees, excluding upper management; and upper man­
agement employees. 12 Since employers often do not keep records on expenditures
for legally required insurance and private welfare plans separately for individual
groups of white-collar employees, it was not possible to collect data on these
expenditure items by employee group.
For some types of private plans, the
Internal Revenue Code provisions encourage employers to establish single plans
for all nonproduction employees. Nevertheless, some information was obtained on
expenditures for special private welfare plans for upper management employees.
Nonexempt Nonproduction Employees. Nonexempt employees in each of
the reporting units received pay for one or more types of leave time.
All of
the units paid for vacations and all but one paid for holidays.
Pay for sick leave
and miscellaneous leave, although not quite as common, occurred in the vast
majority of the units, the fQrmer being found in 94 percent of the units and the
latter in 86 percent (table 11).
On the average, total paid leave accounted for 9# 6 percent of the non­
exempt employees' basic salaries.
Thus, only nine-tenths of the employees'
regular pay was for work performed and time not worked but spent at the work­
place, e . g . , coffee breaks. None of the units reporting expenditures spent less
than 3 percent for paid leave, and four of them spent 15 percent or more (chart 4).
Vacations accounted for nearly half of all leave expenditures— 4. 5 percent. A v­
erage expenditures for holiday pay were 3 percent. Sick leave and miscellaneous
leave entailed lower outlays— 1.7 and 0 .4 percent, respectively, for all report­
ing units.
For each of the types of paid leave, units with 250—999 employees
spent, on the average, less than the larger units; however, except for vaca­
tions (4. 1 against 4. 7 percent) the differences between the two groups were minor.
Percentage differences between manufacturing and nonmanufacturing industries,
likewise, were minimal.
12
Some units could not provide information in this detail.
Therefore, the number o f units shown in the all­
em ployee tables differs from that included in the tables for individual em ployee groups.

In nearly a ll o f the reporting units, the nonexempt grou p 's pay included
additions to regular salary. The m ost frequent addition was overtim e pay, found
in ov er 95 p ercen t of the units.
Two out of five units made payments fo r shift
d ifferen tials, and the sam e prop ortion gave severa n ce o r d ism issa l pay.
O ver
a third o f the units paid bonuses, and clo s e to a fourth made still other payments—
incentive aw ards, retroa ctive pay, etc. (table 12).
Expenditures for these additions to the b a sic sa la ries o f nonexempt w ork ­
e rs averaged 7. 1 percen t for all units and 7. 2 percent in units with expenditures.
O vertim e pay was cle a rly the dominant com ponent, averaging 5. 6 and 5. 8 p e r ­
cent, re sp e ctiv ely . T hese averages hide the con sid erab le variation in overtim e
expenditures; 31 units reporting expenditures spent under 1 percent and 25 spent
15 p ercen t o r m o re . On an a ll-rep ortin g -u n it b a sis, total overtim e pay was d i­
vided into overtim e at straight-tim e rates— 3. 8 p ercen t— and overtim e at prem ium
rates— 1.9 percen t.
A verage total overtim e in manufacturing— 6 .4 percent—
was con sid erab ly higher than the corresponding figure in nonmanufacturing—
4. 1 percen t. A verage bonus expenditures— 1. 1 percen t fo r all units and 3. 1 p e r ­
cent in units with expenditures— w ere im portant.
On the other hand, shift d if­
fe ren tia ls, severa n ce or d ism issa l pay, and other pay contributed only m inor
percen t additions to a verage em ployer p a y rolls.
A ll Exem pt E m p loyees.
The findings on leave payments to exempt
em ployees c lo s e ly p a ra llel those concerning nonexem pt em p loyees, both as to
frequency o f o ccu rre n ce and rate o f expenditure (table 13 and chart 5).
The
m ost n oticeable d ifferen ce was in vacation pay, for which em ployers paid on
the average grea ter amounts to exem pt em ployees— 5. 3 percent com pared with
4. 5 percen t fo r nonexem pt w ork ers.
P ay roll expenditures in addition to b asic sa la ries o cc u rre d le ss often

the b a sic sa la ries o f exem pt em ployees (table 14).
N early tw o-fifths paid o v e r ­

half bonuses, and a lm ost a fourth other pay.
Mainly because of low er overtim e

7 p ercen t in units with expenditures— was higher than fo r nonexem pt em ployees.
Upper Management E m p loyees. A ll units with upper management em ­
ployees paid fo r vacations and holidays.
H ow ever, only 85 percent actually paid
sick leave and 75 percen t, m iscellan eou s leave.
F o r the latter two types o f
lea ve, the rela tive frequency of payments was le ss for upper management em ­
p loyees than fo r either nonexempt or all exem pt em ployees.
Leave payments to
upper m anagement em ployees averaged 10. 2 percen t, higher than for either non­
exem pt o r all exem pt em p loyees.
The m a jor item , vacation s, entailed expendi­
tures o f 5 .8 percent (table 15).
P a y roll additions to the b asic sa la ries o f upper management em ployees

other pay in a tenth. However, bonuses were paid more frequently, in
5 units, and occasioned high average expenditures— 6. 6 percent for all
14. 9 percent in units with expenditures.
In fact, 52 of the 15 7 units
bonus expenditures showed payments of 15 percent or more (table 16).

It is known that some companies have separate private welfare plans for
upper management employees. Some of these plans supplement plans having wider
coverage, which also include upper management employees.
In other instances,
the upper management group is covered solely by special plans and not by plans
applying to lower level employees.
Some information on this point was obtained
in the survey.
Of the units with upper management em ployees, 76 reported ex­
penditures for separate health, accident, and life insurance plans for upper man­
agement, averaging 2 percent.
Fifty-eight reported expenditures for separate
pension and retirement plans, averaging 6. 2 percent.
However, it was not de­
termined to what extent these plans supplemented plans having broader employee
coverage or were substitutes for the broader plans. 13*

* Payroll data for upper management employees are included in the figures for all exempt employees.
the data on separate private welfare plans are included in the all-em ployee figures.

39

The combined effect of employers* vacation plans and individual employ­
ees* lengths of service is seen in figures on the actual amount of vacation time
(or pay) received by workers. (See chart 7 and tables 20—22.) In over half the
reporting units, a majority of the nonexempt employees received between 2 and
3 weeks of vacation. Three-week or longer vacations were received by a majority
of these employees in only a tenth of the units.
Vacations tended to be longer
for exempt employees, excluding upper management; over tyvo-fifths of the units
gave 3-week or longer vacations to a majority of these employees. As one would
expect, largely because of their generally greater length of service, upper man­
agement employees received the most liberal vacations, nearly 3 out of 4 units
granting half the employees 3-week or longer vacations and one-third granting
4 weeks and over.
Holidays. Paid holidays were reported in all but one of the units. 17 The
most common number of holidays was 7 or 8, although some units had under 5,
and others 13 and over (table 23). With few exceptions, companies maintained
a single holiday schedule for all white-collar employees. Thus, the distributions
of reporting units by number of holidays were quite similar for each employee
group.
On the other hand, differences appeared between manufacturing and non­
manufacturing industries; both above- and below-average number of holidays were
relatively more frequent in the latter.
Formal Sick Leave. Close to three-fourths of the reporting units had
formal sick leave plans for nonexempt employees (table 24). Such plans were less
prevalent for each of the exempt employee categories, being found in two-thirds
of the units. However, it does not follow that nonexempt employees were treated
more generously. A number of companies without formal plans continued to pay
the salary of employees out of work because of illness. It is quite likely that such
informal salary continuation plans were more common for exempt employees. 18
Sickness and accident insurance is a second method for continuing em­
ployee income during periods of illness. For this reason, tabulations were pre­
pared relating the presence of formal sick leave plans and sickness and accident
insurance. It is noteworthy that less than half of the units without formal sick
leave had sickness and accident insurance, the percents being 47 for nonexempt
workers and 43 for each of the exempt employee categories.
One out of 6 or
1 out of 7 reporting units (depending upon employee group) had neither benefit.
Furthermore, sickness and accident insurance was relatively more common in
units which also had formal sick leave plans.
This does not mean employees
often received duplicate benefits. Companies with both sick leave and sickness
and accident insurance commonly either utilize the former to compensate workers
during short absences and the latter to provide earnings during long-term ill­
nesses, or integrate cash payments under the two programs so that employees
do not receive more than their regular salaries. 19
Miscellaneous Leave. Employers commonly paid workers for leave due
to civic responsibilities, such as military, jury, witness, 20 and voting leave.
A
majority of the reporting units paid for each of these types of leave, relatively
more often for exempt employees (table 25). Well over half the units paid exempt
employees for leave taken for one or more other types of civic responsibility,
e. g . , meetings of civic organizations, but such leave was provided nonexempt
17 This unit did not have upper management employees.
A ll units reporting for these employees had paid
holidays.
18 Although information collected on sick leave practices was lim ited to formal plans, data collected on sick
leave expenditures included employer outlays under both formal and informal plans.
19 See BLS Bulletin 1405, cited in footnote 11, pp. 3 and 4.
20 Company payments to an em ployee appearing in court as a witness for the company were not considered
leave payments.

employees in only 45 percent of the units. Of the four leave types analyzed sep­
arately (military, jury, witness, and voting leave), paid leave for jury duty oc­
curred most frequently and voting leave least often.
However, it must be re­
membered that some companies gave Election Day as a paid holiday and thus had
no need to give voting leave on this day. 21
A great majority of the reporting units granted paid leave for family
emergencies and death in the family. Over half also gave leave for one or more
other personal reasons. As with leave for civic responsibilities, personal leave
was relatively more common for exempt employees (table 26).
Length of the Workweek
Close to four-fifths of the reporting units were on a 40-hour straight-time
workweek.
Longer workweeks were infrequently reported.
Workweeks under
40 hours were found in one-fifth of the units, the most common such workweek
being 37 V2 hours (table 27).
For each employee group, the 40-hour week was
relatively more common in manufacturing industries, while shorter workweeks
were reported relatively more often in nonmanufacturing industries.
Penalty Pay Practices
Overtime Work.
With only two exceptions, all units reported paying
nonexempt employees extra money—usually time and one-half— for overtime work.
(See chart 8 and table 28.) Overtime payments were considerably less common
for exempt employees, excluding upper management, occurring in about a third
of the units.
The most frequently reported overtime rate for these employees
was straight-time. Upper management employees rarely received overtime pay. 22
Compensatory time off for overtime work was more common for exempt
employees than for nonexempt employees. However, even in the former case,
it was reported in only a small minority of the units.
With respect to exempt
employees, a majority of both the units granting compensatory time off and those
not granting such time off did not pay overtime.
Nevertheless, overtime pay was
relatively more frequent in units granting compensatory time off (table 29)• It
should be borne in mind that, in establishments with the two practices, employees
working overtime did not necessarily receive both overtime pay and compensatory
time off, although this might have occurred. In some instances, employees re­
ceived either of the benefits, and in other cases, each benefit applied to a different
group of workers, e . g . , first-line supervisors received overtime pay while other
exempt employees, excluding upper management, received compensatory time off.
Holiday Work. Over four-fifths of the reporting units paid nonexempt
employees extra money for work on paid holidays.
Such payments were consid­
erably less frequent for exempt employees, excluding upper management, occurring
in a fifth of the units, and were rare for upper management employees (table 30).
Actually, these figures tend to understate the prevalence of extra pay for holiday
work, since a number of the units without extra-pay practices probably did not
work on holidays and thus had no need for a pay practice. The survey did not
determine the number of units without extra-pay practices which had employees
working on paid holidays. The most common pay rates (although neither existed
in a majority of the units) were time and one-half (plus holiday pay as such) for
nonexempt employees and straight-time for exempt employees.

21 A number o f States have laws providing paid time o ff for voting.
Such tim e o ff com m only is permitted
only if there is insufficient tim e outside working hours during which an em ployee may vote.
See Tim e O ff For
Voting Under State Laws (Bureau o f Labor Standards, Bulletin 138, 1964 Revision). Some units in States with these
laws reported no policy o f granting paid voting leave. Apparently, employees in these units had sufficient tim e to
vote outside working hours.
2 2 Tabulations on overtime pay do not include supper money and related payments.

Number of units with the practice is related to the number of units reporting paid holidays.




100

43

A minority of the units reported they granted compensatory time off for
holiday work.
The practice was most common for exemptemployees, excluding
upper management, but even
here was found in less than 1 out of 5 units.
With
respect to exempt employees, the bulk of the units granting compensatory time
off did not give extra pay for holiday work.
Conversely, a majority of the units
with compensatory time off for nonexempt workers also granted holiday pay to
this employee group.
Shift Differentials.
Close to half the reporting units had premium pay
practices for nightwork performed by nonexempt employees.
Of course, almost
4 out of 5 without shift differentials did not have nonexempt nonproduction em­
ployees working night shifts, and hence had no need for the practice.
Premiums
for nightwork were considerably less common for exempt employees, particularly
upper management (table 32).
Employers most frequently paid shift differentials
as cents-per-hour (or other
amounts per time unit, e. g . , dollars per week or
month) additions to day rates, although percent additions also were common
(table 33).
Cents-per-hour (or the equivalent) additions to day rates tended to
cluster between 7 .5 cents and 15 cents for second-shift work (table 34) and be­
tween 10 and 17.5 cents for third-shift work (table 35).
Percent additions most
often were between 10 and 12.5 percent for the second and third shifts (tables
36 and 37). 23
Coverage of Practices. In a great majority of the cases, each of the
premium pay and compensatory time off practices applied to all nonexempt em­
ployees, although for each practice there were some units which limited coverage
to only a part of the employee group (table 38).
Limited coverage for nonexempt
employees was most common with respect to shift differentials; 1 out of 6 units
with this practice did not extend it to all employees.
For example, some units
paid shift differentials only to employees in data processing operations. (It is
possible that some units developed practices only for the types of employees ac­
tually working at night.)
Regarding exempt employees, excluding upper management, a majority
of the reporting units with compensatory time off practices applied them to all
such employees.
Conversely, most units limited the coverage of premium pay
practices.
A number of the units restricted premium pay either to first-line
supervisors or to employees below a specified salary level.
Units providing
compensatory time off to upper management employees generally extended the
benefit to all such employees. Too few units had premium pay practices for upper
management employees to permit generalization about coverage of the plans.
Private Welfare Plans
Reporting units generally had a variety of private welfare benefits.
The
great majority provided the following, either on a contributory or noncontributory
basis: Life insurance, accidental death and dismemberment insurance, or death
benefits; hospitalization, medical, or surgical benefits (excluding major medical
benefits); and private pension or retirement benefits (table 39).
Major medical
benefits were less common, but were found in over three-fifths of the units. Just
over half the reporting units provided sickness and accident insurance for non­
exempt employees; however, slightly less than half extended this benefit to ex­
empt employees, who probably were more frequently covered by more liberal
sick-leave practices.
23
A BLS study o l shift differentials for production and related workers in manufacturing industries in 1962 found
that cents-per-hour premiums com m only ranged between 5 and 11 cents for the second shift and between 5 and 13 cents
for the third shift. Percent differentials most frequently were 5 or 10 percent for the second shift and 10 percent for
the third shift. See article by Arnold Strasser, "Provisions for Late Shifts in Manufacturing Industries," Monthly Labor
R eview . May 1965, pp. 511-516.




In many instances, employers granted these benefits to retired employees
and workers* dependents. Thus, most of the reporting units continued employees*
life insurance (although not necessarily in the same amount) after retirement, al­
though only a small minority provided this benefit for dependents of current em­
ployees. Current employees* dependents generally were covered by health benefits,
but retired employees and their dependents were covered in only a minority of
the units.
At times, employers limited the coverage of private welfare plans, for
example, to employees with a minimum length of service or age. Nevertheless,
most plans covered 90 percent of the employees in a group or more. On a propor­
tionate basis, the lowest coverage applied to pension or retirement plans for non­
exempt employees, where about one-fourth of the plans covered less than 90 per­
cent of the employees. (See chart 9 and tables 39—44.)
Miscellaneous Practices
Over two-fifths of the units reported a practice of paying nonexempt
employees for travel time on company business outside of regular working hours.
However, exempt employees rarely received such payments (table 45). As with
several practices already discussed, it must be remembered that many companies
did not have a pay practice since employees did not travel on company business.
Conversely, some firms reported a pay practice for nonexempt employees because
of requirements under the Fair Labor Standards Act, although actual payments
were not made since the circumstance did not arise.
Over seven-tenths of the reporting units had plans covering reimburse­
ment of exempt employees for moving expenses caused by job changes within the
company but slightly under half the units had such plans for nonexempt employees.
Here too, many companies did not have plans because there were no occasions for
their use. In addition to paying direct moving expenses, a number of companies
financed the costs of househunting trips, temporary quarters, and subsistence.
Other company payments, although found less frequently, were for incidental ex­
penses, storage of furniture, reimbursement for losses in the sale of real estate,
brokers* commissions, and other payments relating to the purchase or sale of
real estate.
Pay for travel and transportation to the first job occurred less frequently
than moving expense reimbursement, and only for upper management employees
was it a practice in a majority of the reporting units. It may well be that many
units did not have the practice because local people were hired, particularly at
lower levels.
Variations Among Employee Groups
Frequently, companies having a given type of benefit extended it to em­
ployees in each of the three nonproduction worker groups, although not necessarily
in precisely the same manner. (See chart 10 and table 46.) This was particularly
evident with respect to paid leave items and private welfare plans. In sharp con­
trast, premium pay often was granted to only a single employee group— nonexempt
employees.
Vacations and holidays, both of which were provided to employees in all
three groups by each reporting unit with employees in all three groups, were ex­
amined in greater detail. Nearly 3 out of 4 units had a uniform vacation schedule
for the three groups and practically all units granted the same holidays to the
three groups (table 47).
There was a greater tendency for uniform vacation
schedules in manufacturing than in nonmanufacturing industries.

However, a number of the reports did not provide information for each item or em ­
ployee group. In some instances, it was possible for Bureau personnel to make reasonable
estimates of missing item s. For example, estimates were made of holiday pay expenditures
if information was available on number of paid holidays, employment, and average hourly
earnings. Estimates of this type were based upon the same techniques which many respond­
ents themselves used in arriving at expenditure figures.
Tabulating Procedures
Considering the size and nature of the response, it was not possible to weight r e ­
ports obtained to statistically represent the universe from which a sample was selected.
Consequently, tabulations pertain only to the specific units which furnished data.
In p re­
paring these tabulations, equal weight was given to each report, regardless of industry,
size, or location. Nevertheless, size had some influence because more large units (those
with 1, 000 employees or more) were included than small ones (those with 250—999 employees).
A lso, a greater number of reports were obtained from manufacturing industries than from
nonmanufacturing industries.
The first step in summarizing expenditures for each supplementary compensation
item or group of items was to express the expenditure in a given reporting unit as a p er­
cent of that unit’ s expenditures for basic salaries.
The average expenditure for an item
(in percentage term s) was then obtained by computing a simple average of the percents in
each of the reporting units.
Two sets of averages were derived. One was limited to units with expenditures for
an item, and was obtained by averaging the percents in units reporting a dollar expenditure
figure for the item under study.
The second set of averages included units which had no
expenditures for the item, and in computing these averages such units were treated as having
zero expenditures.
Some units reported they had expenditures for an item, but did not
show the dollar amount. These reports were excluded from the first set of averages. How­
ever, they were included in the second to avoid biasing the result, and they were included
on the assumption they had outlays as percents of basic salaries equal to the average in
units reporting the amount of expenditures. The number of units for which such an assump­
tion was made is shown in the detail tables.
In computing average outlays for groups of item s, the only reports used were those
containing dollar amounts (or stating there were no expenditures) for all components. Re­
ports giving data for only some of the components were used in computing averages for those
item s, but not the group total.
Therefore, expenditures included in deriving averages for
individual items may not have been used in computing averages for groups of items. As a
result, the sum of the averages presented for the components need not equal the group total,
although normally the difference is slight.
Apart from this factor, averages derived for
reporting units with expenditures are not additive since the averages may be based upon dif­
ferent groups of reports.
As previously described, many— but not all— of the reports received from multi­
unit companies were for either divisions or the entire firm instead of for those individual
establishments which were included in the sample. Such discrepancies were ignored in the
tabulations. Each completed questionnaire was utilized without regard to its coverage.
For
this reason, the analysis is in terms of reporting units, rather than establishments or
companies.
A number of the reports received were not complete for all items or employee
groups.
As a result, the number of reporting units varies by item and employee group.
Moreover, although all reporting units had nonexempt employees and exempt employees, ex­
cluding upper management, not all units had upper management employees.
Expenditures for supplementary compensation items were tabulated as percents of
basic salaries in order to permit meaningful comparisons among reporting units. Obviously,
simple comparisons of reporting units' absolute expenditures for supplementary compensation
could be misleading in view of the units’ differing sizes and payrolls.
However, expend­
itures expressed as a percent of basic salaries also may be misinterpreted. Some types of
supplementary compensation— such as pay for vacations, holidays, sick leave, and m isce l­
laneous leave— are parts of white-collar employees' basic salaries, while other supple­
ments— such as expenditures for hospitalization insurance and pensions— are in addition to




88

payments for basic salaries.
Therefore, not all of the figures shown represent, in p er­
cent term s, components of basic salaries, and not all represent percent additions to such
salaries.
This point is particularly relevant to a percent figure on expenditures for all
supplements combined.
Employee Coverage
This survey was designed to develop information for nonproduction employees
Part-tim e and casual employees were excluded unless they were covered by the same
plementary compensation practices as regular full-tim e employees in the reporting
This exclusion was made because the Federal G o v e r n m e n t 's practices for white-collar
ployees differentiate between the two groups.

em ­

During the early stages of survey planning, there was thought of obtaining data sep­
arately by job classification, as is commonly done in salary surveys, in order to compare
expenditures and practices for individual jobs. However, it soon became evident that em ­
ployers do not keep records in this detail.
Data were therefore collected separately for
three groups: Nonexempt employees; exempt employees, excluding upper management; and
upper management employees.
Because accounting records generally are not maintained
even in this detail for legally required insurance and private welfare plan item s, only a llwhite-collar-em ployee expenditures were collected for these item s, except for figures on
separate private welfare plans for upper management employees.
The terms "nonexempt" and "exem pt" employees pertain to coverage under the over­
time provisions of the Fair Labor Standards Act, the former employees being subject to
the overtime provisions and the latter excluded. This basis for classification was adopted
since employers frequently maintain separate payrolls for these two groups. Upper manage­
ment employees were defined as those high-level workers (but under the senior officer level)
who were treated separately for compensation purposes or, if there was no such differen­
tiation, were earning $ 2 0 ,0 0 0 or more per year, including cash bon u ses.28 As thus defined,
the groups essentially covered, respectively, nonsupervisory workers, lower and middle
management, and upper level employees. They blanketed the broad spectrum of grade levels
in the Federal civil service.
Because a number of companies were unable to report expenditure data separately
for the two groups of exempt employees, the tabulations of employer outlays were for all
exempt employees combined, with a separate presentation of reported data for upper man­
agement employees alone. However, practice data are shown separately for the two exempt
employee groups.
Practices Studied
The expenditure data presented in this bulletin relate to selected practices involving
payments either directly to employees or their dependents or to funds, insurance companies,
or governmental units. Collection of data was limited to practices that were both m easur­
able and common in private industry generally.
For example, although paid rest periods
are common, the practice is largely informal and detailed records often are not maintained.
Consequently, measurement difficulties made it impractical to include this item in the sur­
vey.
Despite this limitation, the practices studied are believed to constitute the major
elements of supplementary compensation in private industry. Nevertheless, it must be rec­
ognized that items not surveyed may be important in some individual companies.
The outlays reported in this study do not constitute measures of employer costs
occasioned by granting supplementary compensation benefits.
For example, expenditures
shown for vacations are limited to direct payments to employees for vacation periods. P os­
sible costs of hiring replacements are not included, nor is any consideration given to the
possible effects of vacations on employee productivity. , Similarly, sick leave entails pay­
ments to employees, but not costs to the extent that employees make up their work upon
return to the job.
28
The intent o f this definition was to obtain data for private-industry em ployees com parable to Federal em ployees at grades
GS-16, 17, and 18. A more precise definition of upper management em ployees would have been preferred, but one still having
general applicability could not be developed.




For the most part, practice questions were limited to the types of items for which
expenditure data were requested. However, information was obtained on practices concern­
ing moving expense reimbursement and pay for travel and transportation to the first job
since, while such payments are not part of compensation, they bear upon it.
Definition of Terms
Term s used in this survey were defined in the explanation booklet given to respond­
ents and reproduced in appendix C. Several definitional matters warrant special consider­
ation at this point.
"B asic salaries" consist of the normal payments for hours during the regular
straight-time workweek, including continuation of salary during paid leave periods.
This
definition is in accordance with the concept of salary in Federal Service and thus provides
a common denominator for comparisons between expenditures in private industry and the
Federal Government.
Plans for health, accident, and life insurance and private pensions were classified
as being either "contributory" or "noncontributory" depending upon whether employees paid
part of the cost of the plans.29 Although no specific question was asked as to whether plans
in effect were contributory or noncontributory, this information could be ascertained since
employer and employee payments were requested separately.30
In part to simplify reporting by respondents, expenditure items were classified as
either "payroll expenditures" or "expenditures in addition to payroll. " The former consists
of direct payments to employees and the latter mainly of payments to funds, insurance com­
panies, and governmental units. Classification was based upon the usual manner of paying
for the items studied. However, this scheme was not always accurate. For example, since,
for the employees studied, severance pay is usually given directly to employees, this item
was classified as a payroll expense. Nevertheless, there are some funded severance pay
arrangements. Respondents were instructed to report their expenditures on the appropriate
lines of the questionnaire, even if there resulted an incorrect classification of items as pay­
roll outlays or expenditures in addition to payroll. For the most part, the errors are minor.

29

Plans paid for entirely by em ployees, except possibly for em ployer payments o f administrative costs, were excluded from
the study.
30 Units showing plans but no expenditures in 1963 are included in table 9, S elected Contributory and Noncontributory Private
Welfare Plans, as having expenditures o f zero percent. There was 1 such unit for total health, accident, and life insurance; 7 for life
insurance, accidental death and dismemberment insurance, and death benefits; 6 for hospitalization, surgical, and m edical plans and
sickness and accident insurance; and 16 for pension and retirement plans.




Appendix B. Comparison o f Employer Expenditures for Supplementary
Compensation in Private Industries and the Federal Government
The table on the next page compares the findings of this study with expenditures
by the Federal Government in the year ending June 30, 1963.
It is limited to a comparison
of employer expenditures, and does not take into account employees* contributions to their
benefits.
Furthermore, the table does not portray the specific kinds of practices financed
nor, for nonpayroll item s, the level of benefits supported by the expenditures.
Comments
on specific items follow.
Penalty Pay
This table does not compare expenditures for penalty pay, since variations in ex­
penditures are mainly the result of differences in the volume of overtime or nightwork,
rather than differences in pay practices.
Vacations
The Federal Government does not have a vacation practice as such.
Instead, it
provides to employees set amounts of annual leave, covering both vacations and time off for
personal reasons.
The figure shown for the Federal Government is its total payment for
annual leave and thus includes expenditures for personal leave, which are reported, for
private industries, as a part of miscellaneous paid leave.
Miscellaneous Paid Leave
The figure for private industries includes paid personal
leave in lieu of overtime pay (to the extent such leave exceeded
hours worked).
Neither of these items is included in the figure for

Retirement Programs
Expenditures for retirement programs are greatly influenced by methods of financing
used as well as by the benefit formulas.
The figures shown do not contrast accruing costs.
Sick Leave
In private enterprise, continuation of income during illness is sometimes provided
by plans other than for sick leave, e. g., sickness and accident insurance.
The data given on the next page on Federal expenditures were provided by the Bureau
of the Budget and the Civil Service Commission.
The items shown are defined here in the
same way as in this report.
