BUREAU OF LABOR STATISTICS n o . s is WASHINGTON J u l y . 1930 UNION SCALES OF WAGES AND HOURS OF LABOR, MAY 15, 1929 INTRODUCTION Since 1911 the Bureau of Labor Statistics each year has collected, compiled, and published statistics relating to the wage rates and hours of labor as agreed to by organized workers and their employers. The study, until 1928, was limited almost exclusively to the principal general trades paid at time rates and to the principal cities of the country. The trades covered in these annual reports have varied from year to year and the list of cities has been increased. In publishing these reports it was recognized that there were still many classes of union workers not represented. There were large numbers of organized workers employed at piece rates, there were localized industries in which employees were paid by either time or piece rates, and there were minor trade groups in the regular cities canvassed. These trades had not been canvassed mainly because of the limitation of funds available for the union wage study. Recognizing the need for additional information on the subject the scope of the study was enlarged in 1928 to include a considerable number of other trades and localities, data for which were collected as of 1927 and 1928, and published in a separate volume as Bulletin 476. The scope of the study for 1929 was still further enlarged, the effort being made to include representative scales for all labor organ izations in the United States. The effort was not entirely success ful, as a few organizations were either unable or unwilling to furnish the necessary information, but data of a more or less satisfactory character were obtained from practically all organized trades. These data are presented in the present volume, continuity with the earlier reports being preserved by dividing the volume into two parts. Part 1, covering the same trades and cities as the preceding reports of the bureau on union wage scales, includes only the principal time work trades found in most of the larger cities, and the wage scales of which are of a character which permits of a uniform method of statis tical presentation. Part 2 presents the union scales for all other organized trades for which the bureau was able to obtain information. All the data given in Part 1 and practically all the data in Part 2 relate to May 15, 1929, but in some instances the scales in Part 2 are of a slightly later date. 1 PA R T 1 GENERAL TRADES PAID AT TIME RATES, BY CITIES In the first part of this report are presented the union wage scales as of May 15, 1929, for 786,010 members of organized general trades as found in 67 important industrial cities geographically distributed so that a fair representation may be obtained for the country as a whole. Following is a list of the trade groups in this part of the report and the total number of union members represented in each group.

The average hourly rates of wages for the several trades and groups of trades in 1929 in comparison with the rates in 1928 appear in Table 2, page 5. The hourly rate of wages for all trades herein listed taken collectively shows an increase of seven-tenths of a cent per hour as between 1928 and 1929. The per cent of change in hourly rates of wages in 1929 as compared with 1928 is shown by trade groups.

By trade groups the chauffeurs and teamsters and drivers showed the largest decrease, namely 0.8 of an hour. The building trades full-time hours per week decreased 0.4 of an hour, the bakery trades 0.2 of an hour, granite and stone trades and newspaper printing trades decreased 0.1 of an hour. The book and job printing trades, 2 6 GENERAL TRADES PAID AT TIME RATES, BY CITIES the longshoremen, and the laundry workers showed no measurable change. The average full-time hours per week for linemen showed an increase of 0.7 of an hour per week. The average hours per full-time week for all trades and all cities herein covered are 44.8 hours. Table 1 shows the average hours per full-time week and the per cent of members, by trade groups, working each classified number of hours per week. In this table it is of interest to note that in the trades listed 17 per cent or slightly more than one-sixth have a working week of 40 hours or less, while only 9 per cent have a week of more than 48 hours. 1.— Average hours per week and per cent of trade-union members, by trade groups, working each classified number of hours per week, May 15, 1929 T able Trade group Per cent of members whose hours per week were— Aver age hours Over Over Over Over per 40 44 40 48 54 full and and and 44 48 and 54 and 60 Over time under under under under under week 44 48 54 11.0 0.3 72.0 7.1 1.5 79.4 .9 .4 1.3 97.7 .7 46.3 85.8 'I.T 22.0 ioo.’o' 91.6 .i 43.0 Bakers.........................................

In reading this report it must be kept in mind that it does not cover all cities of the United States nor all trades and that the averages are based on the data here compiled. In computing the averages for the trades the rates in the several cities were weighted by the number of members in the city. The cities are mainly the largest cities of the country where rates often are higher than in the small cities. The trades covered are those in which the workers are almost universally paid at time rates. It is not practicable to tabulate in this section of the report the many piece rates that are found in some trades. For convenience in comparisons, all rates are shown in Table A (p. 78) per full-time week as well as per hour. The average full-time weekly rate for 1929 for all trades combined increased one-tenth of 1 per cent over the 1928 rate. Weekly rates in 1929 by trade groups showed small increases in all groups except chauffeurs and teamsters and drivers ranging from fourtenths of 1 per cent for the building trades to 2.5 per cent for the laun dry workers and linemen. The chauffeurs and teamsters and drivers’ rate of wages per full-time week decreased nine-tenths of 1 per cent. It is impossible, of course, to follow up the thousands of individual union members and get from them the time they work and the amount of time they do not work; hence no statement can be made of their 4 UNION SCALES OF WAGES AND HOURS OF LABOR actual earnings in a week or in a year. This report can treat only of rates of wages as distinct from actual earnings. For a description of the scope of this report and the methods followed, see pages 72 and 73. AVERAGE HOURLY RATES OF WAGES AND NUMBER OF CHANGES IN UNION SCALES, BY TRADES The average money rates of wages per hour as of May 15, 1929 and 1928, for the country as a whole are given for each trade and for trade groups in Table 2. These averages were obtained by multi plying each hourly rate by the number of members of the union, then adding the products and the number of members and dividing the aggregate wages by the aggregate number of members. The number of members is held strictly confidential and is used only for the purpose of computing the averages. Table 2 shows that the average rate per hour of all trades considered increased from $1,197 in 1928 to $1,204 in 1929. For 1929 there are tabulated 4,536 union-scale quotations, for 265 of which there are no comparable data for 1928. Of the 4,271 unionscale quotations for which there are comparable data for 1928, 3,143 had not changed during the year and 1,128 had changed in rates or hours, or in both of these items. There are 976 instances of an increase in hourly wage rates in 1929 as compared with 1928, 893 instances of an increase in wage rates per week, and 46 instances of an increase in hours of labor. There are 69 instances of a reduction in hourly wage rates in 1929 as compared with 1928; 146 instances of a reduc tion in wage rates per full-time week; and 208 instances of a reduction in hours of labor. Of the 208 decreases in hours per week, 13 occurred in the bakery trades, 113 in building trades, 35 in chauffeurs and team sters and drivers, 5 in the granite and stone trades, 1 in linemen, 6 in book and job printing, and 35 in newspaper printing trades. Table 2 states that of the 270 quotations for bakers tabulated in 1929, 261 were comparable with 1928, and, further, that of the 261 comparable with 1928, 30 increased, 3 decreased, and 228 had no change in wage rates per hour; 17 increased, 4 decreased, and 240 had no change in wage rates per full-time week; while 13 decreased and 248 had no change in number of hours per full-time week. The other items of the table may be read in like manner. Expressed in percentages of the total number of union scale quota tions in which there were scale changes, 86.5 per cent resulted in increases and 6.1 per cent in decreases in rates of wages per hour; 79.2 per cent provided increases and 12.9 per cent decreases in wage rates per full-time week; and 4.1 per cent provided increases and 18.4 per cent decreases in the hours per full-time week.

Table 3a which follows Table 3 shows the extent to which the 5-day week was in effect in the trades and cities included on May 15, 1929. The bakers, chauffeurs and teamsters and drivers, laundry workers, and longshoremen show no members working on a 5-day week basis. The building trades group shows a tendency to a general adoption of the 5-day week, nearly all trades having adopted it to some extent. The painters and plasterers with 68.3 per cent and 65.3 per cent, respectively, show the highest percentage of members working the short week. Only a small percentage of members of the printing trades, granite and stone trades, and linemen work five days per week.

According to Table 4 the weekly rate for bakers increased 160.4 per cent between 1913 and 1929. This means that the bakers’ full-time weekly wage rate in 1929 was more than two and one-half times the rate of 1913. Between 1907 and 1929 the bakers’ weekly rate increased 206.0 per cent. In other words, bakers’ wages in 1929 were more than three times those of 1907. Data for all trades are not available as far back as 1913. So far as shown, the greatest increase in any trade between 1913 and 1929 was in steam and sprinkler fitters’ helpers. Here the increase was 198.2, making the rate nearly three times as much in 1929 as in 1913. The greatest increase between 1907 and 1929 is also for steam and sprinkler fitters’ helpers. In this trade the weekly rate in 1929 was more than three and one-half times the rate in 1907. INDEX NUMBERS OF ALL TRADES COMBINED, 1907 TO 1929 The index numbers in Table 5 are percentages in which the rates for all of the years were compared with the rate in the selected base year (1913), which is taken as 100. Table 5 shows the extent of the changes in all cities and all trades combined, in union wage rates taken as a whole for each year from 1907 to 1929; the data for pre ceding years are drawn from earlier reports. 13 INDEX NUMBERS OF ALL TRADES COMBINED T a b l e 5*— Index numbers of union wage rates and hours of labor from 1907 to 1929 as compared with 19IS [1913=100.0] Index numbers of— Year Rate of wages per hour 89.7 91.0 91.9 94.4 96.0 97.6 1907. 1908. 1909. 1910. 1911. 1912. 1913. 1914. 1915. 1916. 1917. 1918. 100.0 101.9 102.8 107.2 114.1 132.7 Index numbers of— Hours Rate of per full wages per full-time time week week 102.6 102.1 101.9 101.1 100.7 100.3 100.0 99.6 99.4 98.8 98.4 97.0 91.5 92.5 93.3 95.2 96.5 97.7 100.0 101.6 102.3 106.2 112.4 129.6 Year 1919..

This means that union wage rates per hour as a whole were nearly two and five-eighths times as much in 1929 as they were in 1913. Full-time hours per week were 8.5 per cent lower in 1929 than in 1913 and full-time weekly earnings were more than 2.4 times as much in 1929 as in 1913. As some readers may desire to make comparisons with the initial year, 1907, a table of index numbers has been computed from the same basic figures starting with 1907 as 100.

This means that the rates per hour were more than 2.9 times as much in 1929 as in 1907. The index for full time hours per.week in 1929 is 89.2, meaning that since 1907 full time hours per week have decreased 10.8 per cent. The index for full-time rates of wages per week stands at 263.0 in 1929, meauing 14 UNION SCALES OF WAGES AND HOURS OF LABOR that full-time weekly earnings were more than two and five-eighths times as much in 1929 as in 1907. An inspection of these index numbers shows that the grand average of union rates of wages per hour and hours per full-time week has increased each year save one for the last 22 years. The average for 1929 shows the smallest increase in rate per hour, and only one decrease was noted, the average for 1922 being lower than the average for 1921. The average rate per full-time week showed an increase every year except two— 1922 and 1928. While the rate of wages has been increasing the hours per full-time week have been almost as steadily decreasing; only two years showed increases, viz, 1921 and 1922. To set forth more clearly the extent of change from year to year in the grand average of union rates of wages per hour and of hours per full-time week Table 7 is presented. This table shows the per cent of change in the rate of wages per hour and in hours per full-time week in May of one year compared with the rate and hours in May of the preceding year.

Certain other trades and trade groups not included in this report have been carried by the bureau in the union wage reports in pre ceding years. A list of these trades and 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 78, 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, 74 UNION SCALES OF WAGES AND HOURS OF LABOR union men actually work. A union scale usually fixes the limit in only one direction. It sets a minimum wage and a maximum of hours for a regular day’s wo'rk. 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 regain in effect indefinitely, such bonuses have been combined with the regular rate. The observance of Labor Day as a holiday is so general and the fact is so widely understood that it has been deemed unnecessary to refer to the many agreements which prohibit the performance of ordinary work on that day. However, in instances where the pro hibition of work has been extended to other days or parts of days, such as Jidy 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 that maj not be exceeded except by payment of an overtime rate, and a minimum of hours for which work must be pro vided or payment made if a man undertakes a day’s work. When such contract exists there may be further a commonly accepted work ing time, within the limits provided, so well established that such time is in eftect the standard working-day. In such instances the tabulation shows such actual working hours, and notes state the maximum and minimum hours. No scale for any trade is published here unless it was so w6^ established that at least 50 per cent of the members of the union were receiving the scale or above it. Information obtained on this question indicates that an insignificant number of union members were working for less than the scale, while a considerable number were receiving more than the scale. Some trades w^ere not organized in certain cities, and some were organized only in part. When organized in part, with a scale in force for such men as were organized, the scale is published. The union scales in this section of the report are almost entirely time-rate scales. The only piece-rate scales shown are for lathers, and for machine operators in the printing trades, and one quotation for longshoremen. These occupations have simple units of payment which are commonly understood. Many trades work to a large extent on piece rates. Such rates are so great in number and the units ©f payment so variable that it is not practicable to quote them in arbitrary tables as are shown in this section. The various scales agreed to by employers and trade-unions wagls for differing units of time. Some scales designate the of wages by the hour, others by the day, week, or month. varying rates have been converted into common terms, and hourly and w.eekly rates are shown. state rates The both General Table A (p. 78) shows the rates of wages per hour and the rates per full-time week, the rates for overtime, Sunday, and holiday work, the regular hours for a full day, for Saturday, and EXPLANATION OF TERMS AND METHODS 75 for a full week, the number of months in the year for which the agreement provided for a Saturday part or whole holiday, and the per cent of members receiving more than scale and the amount or range received. Corresponding figures for 1928 are reproduced, in part, in this table. Certain unions have agreements that Saturday or some other week day shall be a day of rest instead of Sunday. In such cases the overtime provision for this day has been tabulated as equivalent to the usual Sunday provision. In other words, “ Sunday” is con sidered as comprehensive enough to cover any fixed rest day. Like wise, if there is a short day in the week other than Saturday, it has been tabulated as equivalent to a Saturday provision. Due to some peculiar local conditions the actual rates per hour and per week and the hours per week are not exactly what the agree ment shows. The bureau has tabulated the rate and hours that the full-time employed man receives; for example, in Worcester, Mass., the nominal rate for web pressmen, night, is $45 per week for 42 hours and the nominal rate per hour would be 107.1 cents. How ever, all the men employed work an extra l){ hours every Saturday for which they get $1 additional, and time and a half, which makes an actual wage of $48.73 for 43% hours, received regularly each week by them. Where two or more quotations of rates and hours are shown for the same occupation in the same city, such quotations represent two or more agreements between unions and employers, sometimes different unions, sometimes different employers, sometimes both. The letters A, B, C, etc., are used to designate different quotations, but have no other significance. When the number of hours per week differed during a part of the year from that shown for May, the difference has been noted in the table. When a strike or lockout was pending on May 15, the scale which was in effect before the strike or lockout began has been tabulated with a note, “ Old scale; strike pending.” Most of the data for this report were obtained by special agents of the bureau through personal visits to business agents, secretaries, or other officials of the respective trade-unions in the several cities. The State labor bureaus of Massachusetts, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin, for their own purposes, collect union-wage scales within their respective States. To avoid duplication of field work in these States they have furnished such information as is necessary to this compilation. The Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin data were collected en tirely by personal visits of special agents of those States. The Massachusetts bureau collected its data in part by correspondence and in part by sending out special agents. In the work of this bureau and of the four State bureaus named, wage scales, written agreements, and trade-union records were con sulted wherever available. Over 2,000 union representatives were visited. 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 part by apprentices. Whenever it was found that the 99193°—30----- 6 76 UNION SCALES OF WAGES AND HOURS OF LABOR 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 names makes a com parison between cities difficult. Inquiry has shown that 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 and 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 which makes them weighted averages. 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 in 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 union members. If there is an increase in mem bership in high-rate cities and not in low-rate cities the average for the country is raised. Conversely, if increase of membership occurs in the low rate rather than in the high rate cities the average is lowered. A few changes in the large widespread trades may cause but 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. 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 to 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 that 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 re ceived each year. EXPLANATION OF TERMS AND METHODS 77 The same method was used in computing index numbers of hours and of wages per full-time week. 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 or passing out of existence, but a question of discontinuing or taking on an industry that is in existence. To illustrate, the metal industry and the millwork industry were omitted in 1925 and have been since, as it was known that 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 by a subtraction of index numbers does not repre sent the per cent of increase or decrease between the different years. For example, referring to page 15, the index number of bakers’ rates of wages per week in 1907 was 85.1 as compared with 254.5 in 1928, making an increase of 169.4 points in the index number. This 169.4 is 199.1 per cent of 85.1, thus making the increase in 1928 over 1907, 199.1 per cent as shown in Table 4.

PART 2 OTHER TRADES As explained in the introduction to this report, Part 2 presents the union scales of wages and hours of labor for a number of trades which have recently been added to the bureau’s survey of union wages. These added trades are presented separately for the following reasons: (1) The trades included in Part 1 are limited to those normally occurring in the large cities and for which the wage scales are in a form permitting uniform tabulation. As a result it is possible to combine these data so as to derive average wages and hours, and index numbers thereof, for various groups of cities and trades, over a series of years. (2) Part 2 includes trades recently added to the bureau's survey which, whether because of their more complicated wage scales or for other reasons, do not permit of combination for the present at least, with the data given in Part 1. The data presented in this second part were derived from a com plete survey of all organized trades in 17 cities and by correspondence with, or personal visits to, those organizations which are of a noncity character—such as those concerned with railroads and mining. The cities covered by the survey referred to are: Baltimore. Birmingham. Boston. Butte. Chicago. Cleveland. Dallas. Jacksonville. Kansas City. New Orleans. New York. Philadelphia. Pittsburgh. Providence. San Francisco. Seattle. St. Louis. For each of the organizations concerned, every effort was made to secure the prevailing scales of wages and hours or representative examples of such scales. In a few cases the organizations were unable or unwilling to furnish this information, but these exceptions were very few, and on the whole the information in Part 2 combined with that in Part 1 gives a fairly complete picture of the prevailing union scales in force in the organized trades of this country. In the wage presentation of Part 2 time rates are shown wherever such are available. Otherwise, sample piece rates are given and in a few cases estimated earnings under these piece rates are quoted. In general, however, it is to be noted that union rates are minimum rates and in many cases are considerably below actual earnings. The total membership of the organizations represented in Part 2 is slightly more than 1,000,000. 99193°— 30------ 16 235 236 UNION SCALES OP WAGES AND HOURS OP LABOR METALS AND MACHINERY AUTOMOBILE AND VEHICLE INDUSTRY Rates of wages per hour or week, overtime rates, and hours per day and week are shown for occupations of the automobile and vehicle industry in Table 1.

Thus, a conductor would receive one hundred and fifty times the mile rate of 4.8 cents, or $7.20; this is his minimum daily rate, even though the run may be less than 150 miles. If his run exceeds 150 miles, he is paid the specified rate per mile for each mile of the run. However, if the monthly earnings of regularly assigned passenger trainmen from guarantees, mileage, overtime, and other rates do not yield the average daily amounts given below, it is provided that for each day that the trainmen are on duty they shall be paid, such daily rates.

The provisions for overtime in the passenger service read as follows: (a) Trainmen on short turnaround passenger runs, no single trip of which exceeds 80 miles, including suburban and branch line service, shall be paid overtime for all time actually on duty, or held for duty in excess of 8 hours (computed on each run from the time required to report for duty to the end of that run) within 10 consecutive hours; and also for all time in excess of 10 consecutive hours computed continuously from the time first required to report to the final release at the end of the last run. Time shall be counted as con tinuous service in all cases where the interval of release from duty at any point does not exceed one hour. This rule applies regardless of mileage made. For calculating overtime under this rule the management may designate the initial trip. (b) Trainmen on other passenger runs shall be paid overtime on a speed basis of 20 miles per hour computed continuously from the time required to report for duty until released at the end of last run. Overtime shall be computed on the basis of actual overtime worked or held for duty, except that when the minimum day is paid for the service performed overtime shall not accrue until the expiration of 7 hours and 30 minutes from time of first reporting for duty. (c) Overtime in all passenger service shall be paid for on the minute basis at a rate per hour of not less than one-eighth of the daily rate herein provided. In the freight service it is provided that— (6) On runs of 100 miles or less overtime will begin at the expiration of eight hours; on runs of over 100 miles overtime will begin when the time on duty exceeds the miles run divided by 12%. Overtime shall be paid for on the minute basis, at a rate per hour of three-sixteenths of the daily rate. (c) Road conductors and trainmen performing more than one class of road service in a day or trip will be paid for the entire service at the highest rate applicable to any class of service performed. The overtime basis for the rate paid will apply for the entire trip.

On account of limited space, rates for only a few railroads in each district are presented. Pumper and crossing watchmen work every day in the year and their hours vary from 8 to 12 per day. These employees are usually paid on a monthly basis. The rates per hour are shown in four ways—the minimum, the maxi mum, the going, and a weighted average. The going rate probably needs explanation. It is the particular exact rate which is most frequent within the limit of the minimum and maximum.
