UNION SCALE OF WAGES AND HOURS OF LABOR, HAY 1 5 .1 9 2 6
SUMMARY
The Bureau of Labor Statistics presents in this report the union
wage scales as of M ay 15, 1926, for 824,313 members of organized
trades as found in 66 im portant industrial cities. Seventy-eight
trades and subdivisions of trades have been included. M ost agree
m ents for the year are settled before M ay 15.
The average rates for the several trades and groups of trades in
1926 in comparison w ith the rates in 1925 appear in Table 1, page 3.
The hourly rate of wages for all trades herein shown taken collec
tively, exclusive of the street railway occupations, shows an advance
from $1,091 per hour in 1925 to $1,148 per hour in 1926, an increase
of 5.2 per cent. Following is a list of trade groups for which d ata are
shown in this report and the per cent of change in hourly wages
as compared w ith 1925:

The rates and hours of street railw ay motormen and conductors
do n ot enter into the grand averages for all trades combined, as
men in these occupations do n o t have uniform hours.
W eekly hours for all trades taken as a u n it have changed b u t
slightly since 1925, having decreased 0.2 per cent. The largest
decrease for any one group was th a t of chauffeurs and team sters and
drivers, which showed 1.5 per cent reduction. Two groups showed
slight increases, bakers an increase of 0.8 per cent and newspaper
printing an increase of 0.1 per cent.
The average hours for the U nited S tates in all trades herein cov
ered, n ot including street railways, are 45.4 per week. In the fol
lowing statem ent the average hours for the several groups are shown:

F or convenience in comparisons, all rates are shown per full-tim e
week as well as per hour. The average full-tim e weekly rates for
1926 for all trades combined showed an advance of 5.0 per cent over
the 1925 figures.
The greatest per cent of increase in weekly earnings is shown by
granite and stone cutters, which am ounts to 11.2 per cent, while
building trades show 6.4 per cent, and linemen 4.5 per cent. W ith
th e exception of bakery trades, which show a decrease in full-tim e earn
ings of 4.3 per cent, and longshoremen and laundry workers, which
show a quite negligible decrease, other groups show sm all increases.
I t is impossible, of course, to follow up the thousands of individual
union members and get from them the am ount of tim e they work
and the am ount of tim e they do not work; hence no statem ent can
be m ade of their actual earnings in a week or in a year. This report
can tre a t only of rates of wages as distinct from actual earnings.
F or a description of th e scope of this report and the methods fol
lowed see page 54.
AVERAGE HOURLY RATES OF WAGES AND NUMBER OF
CHANGES IN UNION SCALES, BY TRADES
The average money rates of wages per hour as of M ay 15, 1926
and 1925, for the country as a whole are given for each trade and for
trade groups in Table 1. These averages were obtained by m ulti
plying each hourly rate by the num ber of members of th e union,
then adding the products and the num ber of members and dividing
the aggregate wages by the aggregate num ber of members. The
membership is held strictly confidential and is used only for the
purpose of com puting the averages.
There are tabulated for 1926, 4,570 union-scale quotations, for
401 of which there are no com parable d ata for 1925. Of the 4,169
union-scale quotations for which there are com parable d ata for
1925, 2,655 had n o t changed during the year and 1,514 had changed
in rates or hours or in both of these item s. There are 1,379 instances
of an increase in hourly wage rates in 1926 as compared w ith 1925,
1,297 instances of an increase in wage rates per week, and 44 instances
of an increase in hours of labor. There are 94 instances of a reduc
tion in hourly wage rates in 1926 as compared w ith 1925, 105 in
stances of a reduction in wage rates per week, full tim e, and 152 in
stances of a reduction in hours of labor. Of the 44 instances of in
crease in the hours of labor, 16 occurred in the building trades, 6 in
the chauffeurs and team sters and drivers, 1 in linemen 1 in longshore
men and 20 in the newspaper printing trades.

UNION SCALE OF WAGES AND HOURS OF LABOR
Table 1 shows th a t of the 247 bakeiy trade quotations com parable
w ith 1925,38 had an increase, 1 a decrease, and 208 had no change in
wage rates per hour; 36 had an increase, 2 a decrease, and 209 no
change in wage rates per wreek, full tim e; while 2 had a decrease and
245 no change in the num ber of hours per week. The other item s
of the table m ay be read in like m anner.
Owing to the shifting of trips and the many variations of hours of
work in the operation of street cars, the hours per week and rates of
wages per week of motormen and conductors are om itted from this
report. The 28 changes reported for this group were all increases
in rates of w ages per hour.
Expressed in percentages of the total num ber (1,5.14) of union-scale
quotations in which there were changes, 91.1 per cent resulted in
increases and 6.2 per cent in decreases in rates of wages per hour;
85.7 per cent provided increases and 6.9 per cent decreases in earn
ings per week; and 2.9 per cent provided increases and 10 per cent
decreases in the hours per week.
WEEKLY HOURS OP LABOR, BY TRADES
Table 2 showrs the percentage of members in each trade or occu
pation working certain classified hours per week on M ay 15, 1926.
I t will be observed from the table th at 94.5 per cent of the bakers
had a wreek of 48 hours or less; th a t 97.1 per cent of the building trades
had a wreek of 44 horn's or less; th a t 79.5 per cent of all the union
membership covered had a w^eek of 44 hours or less and 90.3 per
cent a week of 48 hours or less.
The combined organized trades herein represented have thus
nearly reached the 8-hour day, and more than three-fourths of their
membership have also secured the Saturday half-holiday, resulting
in a 44-hour wreek.

TTNIOBT SCALE OF WAGES AND HOURS OP LABOR
Table 3 above shows very interesting figures. According to the
table the weekly rate of bakers increased 150.3 per cent between
1913 and 1926. This means th a t the bakers’ full-tim e weekly wage
rate in 1926 was two and one-half tim es the rate of 1913. Between
1907 and 1926 the bakers’ weekly rate increased 194.2 per cent. In
other words, bakers’ wages in 1926 were alm ost three tim es those of
1907. D ata for all trades were n o t available back as far as 1913. So
far as shown, the greatest increase in any trade between 1913 and
1926 was in cem ent finishers’ helpers. H ere the increase was 186 per
cent, making th e ra te 2.86 tim es as much in 1926 as in 1913. The
greatest increase between 1907 and 1926 is shown for steam and
sprinkler fitters’ helpers. In this trade the rate in 1926 was more
th an three and one-third tim es the rate in 1907.
INDEX NUMBERS OF ALL TRADES COMBINED, 1907 TO 1926
A table of index num bers is now presented. These index num bers
are sim ply percentages in which the rates for all of the years were
com pared w ith th e rate in a selected base year which is taken as 100.
Table 4 shows the extent of the changes in all cities and all trades
combined, in union wage scales taken as a whole for each year from
1907 down; the d ata for preceding years are draw n from earlier
reports. The pre-w ar year 1913 is taken as the base.

Certain other trades and trade groups not included in this report
have been carried by the bureau in the union wage report in pre
ceding years. A list of these trades aud the bulletins in which they
appear are stated in Bulletin 404, page 57.
The asterisks in the preceding list indicate cities added since the
first report. In Table A, page 59, data for each of the cities are given
for each trade in which a scale was in effect.
EXPLANATION OF TERMS AND METHODS
A union scale, as the term is here used, is a statement, either
written or definitely understood, of wages and hours of labor agreed
to or accepted by an organization of union men and an employer or
group of employers, under which agreement, expressed or implied,
union men actually work. A union scale usually fixes the limit
in only one direction. I t sets a minimum wage and a maximum of
hours for a regular day’s work. This report shows such minimum
wage and maximum hours as are established by the agreed to or
accepted scale. In certain cities and trades, however, some work
men, and in some few instances all or nearly all workmen, actually
are paid more than the scale, and in some instances employees work
fewer hours than the scale calls for. As a general rule, however, the
union scale represents the prevailing wage of a locality.
In cases where bonuses are definitely reported in one fixed amount
and apparently are to remain in effect indefinitely, such bonuses
have been combined with the regular rate.
The observance of Labor D ay as a holiday is so general and the
fact is so widely understood th a t it has been deemed unnecessary to
refer to the many agreements which prohibit the performance of
ordinary work on th a t day. However, in instances where the pro
hibition of work has been extended to other days or parts of days,
such as July 4 and Saturday afternoon, and also includes Labor
Day, the conditions are stated in footnotes.
In the newspaper printing trades, compositor and machine operator
agreements are found in certain cities in which there are stated
maximum hours th a t may not be exceeded except by paym ent of
an overtime rate, and a minimum of hours for which work must
be provided or paym ent made if a man undertakes a day’s work.
When such contract exists there may be further a commonly accepted
working time, within the limits provided, so well established th a t
such time is in effect the standard working-day. In such instances
the tabulation show's such actual working hours, and notes state the
maximum and minimum hours.
No scale for any trade is published here unless it was so well
established th a t a t least 50 per cent of the members of the union
were receiving the scale or above it. Information obtained on this
question indicates th a t an insignificant number of union members

EXPLANATION OF TERMS AND METHODS
57
The Ohio and Pennsylvania data were collected entirely by personal
visits of special agents of those States. The M assachusetts bureau
collected its data in p art by correspondence and in p art by sending
out special agents. About 1,800 union representatives were visited.
In the work of this bureau and of the three State bureaus named,
wage scales, written agreements, and trade-union records were con
sulted wherever available.
Scales for apprentices are not shown, but scales for helpers in a
number of trades are given. In some trades the work of helpers is
performed in p art by apprentices. Whenever it was found th a t the
work of helpers is largely done by apprentices, the scales for such
helpers have been omitted.
An inspection of the general table shows for some occupations a
great variation in trade terms and classifications in the different
cities. For example, bakers are classed in some cities as first hands,
second hands, and. third hands; in other cities as mixers, benchmen,
oven men, etc. The difference in occupation name makes a com
parison between cities difficult. Inquiry has shown th a t the terms
“ first hand,” “ second hand,” etc., do not cover identical work in
the different cities where these terms are used. Certain work may
be considered first-hand work in one city and second-hand work in
another city. Of necessity, this bureau has followed the terminology
used in each city.
There are also great variations in classification and in the extent
of subdivision of chauffeurs, teamsters, and drivers, and of book
binding and presswork occupations, making comparison of city with
city quite difficult; and similar conditions, less in degree, are found
in several other trades. Special rates for inconsequential groups
within these occupations have been omitted in some cities.
As stated before, the average rates shown in preceding tables were
obtained by multiplying the rate for each city by the number of
union members, adding the products for all cities, and dividing the
sum by the aggregate membership in all cities. The same method
was used in computing average hours.
The averages are based on all data available each year. There
may be an effective^ scale in a city one year and not in the next year.
If there is no effective scale the city does not enter into the average.
A change in the average, therefore, is possible though there be no
change m any of the other cities.
Further, there may be a change in the average when there is no
change in the rate or hours for any city, all due to a change in the
relative number of members. If there is an increase in membership
in high-rate cities and not in low-rate cities the average for the country
is raised. Conversely, if the low-rate cities increase membership
rather than the high-rate cities the average is lowered.
A few changes in the large widespread trades may cause b u t little
change in the average, while a few changes in a trade limited as to
cities or as to membership may materially affect the average.
Index numbers are computed to make comparisons easier as
between years. They are only percentages which show the increase
or decrease in all other years as compared with one year selected as
the base. In most of the tables 1913 is taken as the base. In other
tables 1907, the first year of this series of reports, is taken as the base.
58
UNION SCALE OF WAGES AND HOURS OF LABOR
The index numbers for rates have been obtained by computing
ratios from the rates for each two successive years and, beginning
with the base year, compounding the ratios each year. The ratio
of the 1914 rate and the 1913 rate is the index number for 1914.
The index number for 1914 thus found, multiplied by the ratio of
1915 to 1914, gives the index number for 1915, etc.
In the earlier years the ratio was based on the average as computed
from identical unions th a t reported for both years, old quotations
dropping out and new quotations coming in being omitted from the
average. In the later years the averages are based on all data
received each year.
The same method was used in computing index numbers of hours.
In computing the general index number when an industry is added
or omitted the ratio is based on the data for identical industries.
Here it is not a question of a trade or an industry coming into exist
ence or passing out, b u t a question of discontinuing or taking on an
industry th a t is in existence. To illustrate, the m etal industry and
the miUwork industry were both omitted in 1925 and 1926, as it
was known th a t more representative data for these two industries
could be obtained from establishment pay rolls. These trades were
covered in 1924 and earlier years and entered into the general index
for all trades in those years. Before computing the general index
for 1925 a new grand average was computed for all trade groups,
with these trade groups omitted. Then the ratio between 1924 and
1925 for all the remaining trade groups combined was computed and
the general index for 1924 was multiplied by this ratio to get the
general index for 1925.
Caution should be used in considering these index numbers. The
result obtained b y a subtraction of index numbers does not represent
the per cent of increase or decrease between the different years.
For example, referring to page 12, the index number for rates of
wages per week of bakers in 1907 was 85.1 as compared with 250.3
in 1926, making an increase of 165.2 points in the index number.
One hundred and sixty-five and two-tenths is 194.2 per cent of 85.1,
thus making the increase in 1926 over 1907, 194.2 per cent, as shown
in Table 3.
