Preface
The U .S . Department of L a b o r ’ s Bureau of Labor
Statistics conducts annual surveys of wage rates and sched­
uled hours of work for specified cra fts or jobs as p ro ­
vided in lab or-m anagem en t agreem ents in four industries:
Building construction, printing, local tran sit, and local
trucking. The studies present the wage rates in effect as
of July 1 of each year as reported to the Bureau by the
appropriate lo ca l labor organizations in each of the c itie s .
Inform ation on the union sca le s and hours p re ­
vailing in each city is available in August upon request
to the B u reau ’ s regional offices,, A nationwide sum m ary
report of rates for local m otortrucking was issued in
D ecem ber 1958» This bulletin provides additional data and
indexes of the trend of wages and hours for the period
1936—58. It was prepared by H erbert Schaffer under the
direction of John F . L acisk ey of the B ureau’ s Division of
W ages and Industrial R elation s.

Union Wages and Hours: Motortruck Drivers and Helpers,
July 1, 1958
Summary

Average hourly wage scales of unionized
local motortruck drivers and helpers in
cities of 1 0 0 ,0 0 0 or m ore population ad­
vanced 5 .2 percent, or 12 cents, between
July 1, 1957, and July 1, 1958. Pay raises
were reported for 85 percent of the workers
included in the 23d annual survey of union
scales in local trucking conducted by the
U .S . Department of L a b o r s Bureau of L a ­
bor Statistics.
Wage increases varied from 10 to 15
c e n t s an h ou r1 for three-eighths of the
drivers and h elp ers, and from 15 to 17y2
cents for an eighth. Advances of 17y2 cents
or m ore affected about a sixth of the work­
ers as did increases of le ss than 10 cents
an hour.
Union hourly rates on July 1, 1958, av­
eraged $ 2 .4 1 for drivers and helpers en­
gaged in local city trucking. For about twofifths of the w orkers, collective bargaining
agreements stipulated pay scales of $ 2 .2 5
to $ 2 .5 0 . Hourly rates ranging from $ 2 .5 0
to $ 2 .7 5 were in effect for approximately a
fourth of the w orkers, and of $ 2 .7 5 or more
for a tenth.
Straight-tim e weekly work schedules
continued their trend towards a shorter
workweek, and averaged 40.3 hours on J u lyl,
1958. The predominant schedule, 40 hours,
was in effect for nearly nine-tenths of the
truckdrivers and their helpers*
One or
m ore health and insurance benefits were
provided in labor-m anagem ent agreements
covering nine-tenths of the w orkers. Pen­
sion plan provisions were applicable to twothirds of the drivers and h elp ers.
Scope and Method of Study

Union scales are defined as the m ini­
mum wage scales or maximum schedules of
hours agreed upon through collective b a r ­
gaining between trade unions and em ployers.
Rates in excess of the negotiated m inimum,
which may be paid for special qualifications
or other reason s, are not included.

1 For ease of reading in this and sub­
sequent discussions of tabulations, the lim its
of cla ss intervals are designated as 3 to 5
percent, 6 to 9 cents, etc. , instead of using
the more precise terminology 3 and under
5 percent, 6 and under 9 cents, etc.




The information presented in this r e ­
port was based on union scales in effect on
July 1, 1958, and covered approximately
2 6 5 .0 0 0 drivers and 3 7 ,0 0 0 helpers in 52
cities with populations of 1 0 0 ,000 or m o re.
Over-the-road drivers and local city drivers
paid on a mileage or com m ission basis were
excluded from the study.
Data were ob­
tained from local union officials prim arily
by m ail questionnaire; in some c itie s, data
were obtained from regional or local o ffi­
cials of the union by Bureau representatives.
The current survey was designed to r e ­
flect union wage scales of local motortruck
drivers and helpers in all cities of 1 00,000
or more population. A ll cities with 5 0 0 ,0 0 0
or more population were included, as were
m ost cities in the population group of 250,000
to 5 0 0 ,0 0 0 .
The cities in the 1 0 0 ,0 0 0 to
2 5 0 .0 0 0 group selected for study were d is­
tributed widely throughout the United States.
The data for some of the cities included in
the study in the two sm aller size groups
were weighted in order to compensate for
cities which were not surveyed*
In order
to provide appropriate representation in the
combination of data, each geographic region
and population group was considered sepa­
rately when city weights were assigned.
The averages computed on the basis of
hourly scales are designed to show current
rate levels in effect on July 1, 1958. Indi­
vidual scales are weighted by the number of
union m em bers having each rate.
These
averages are not designed for precise y e a r to-year comparisons because of fluctuations
in membership and in classifications studied.
Average cents-per-hour and percent changes
from July 1, 1957, to July 1, 1958, are
based on comparable quotations for the v ari­
ous occupational classifications in both peri­
ods, weighted by the m em bership reported
for the current survey. The index s e r ie s ,
designed for trend purposes, is sim ilarly
constructed*

Scale Changes and Trend

Pay scales of union motortruck drivers
and helpers rose an average of 5 .2 percent
during the year ending July 1, 1958. This
increase approximated the 5 .4 and 4 .9 per­
cent gains recorded for the 12-month p eri­
ods ending July 1, 1957, and 1956, re sp e c­
tively, and advanced the Bureau1s index of
union hourly rates for these workers to 7 2 .4
percent above the 1947-^19 level (table 1).

2

Scales rose 5 .2 percent for drivers and
5 .5 percent for helpers during the survey
y ear. However, on a cen ts-p er-h o u r b a sis,
the drivers advanced their average scale
12 cents and h elp ers, 11 cents (table 4 ).

greater for drivers than for helpers in all
regions except the Middle Atlantic and M id­
dle W est; in percentage te rm s, however,
the gain registered by helpers exceeded that
of drivers in five of the nine regions (table 4).

Wage scale changes for local trucking
workers were achieved through negotiations
on contract expirations or reopenings.
In
recent years there has been a tendency to
negotiate labor-m anagem ent c o n t r a c t s of
m ore than a y e a r ’ s duration.
Of the con­
tracts in effect July 1, 1958, many were
for 2 or 3 y e a rs, some for longer peri­
ods.
Multiyear contracts usually provide
for wage reopenings or for interim deferred
in cre a se s. Only those scale changes which
actually became effective between July 1,
1957, and July 1, 1958, were included in the
survey. Some of the adjustments reflected
in the survey were negotiated prior to J u lyl,
1957. Excluded from the survey were nego­
tiated increases effective after July 1, 1958.
Thus, the scale changes presented in this
report do not reflect the total wage adjust­
ments negotiated in individual contracts dur­
ing the survey y ear.

In each of the 52 cities studied, all or
some of the truckdrivers were affected by
wage advances.
The increase in average
scales varied widely among individual cities,
ranging from 4 cents in Newark, N . J. , and
Salt Lake City, Utah, to 33 cents in Jack­
sonville, F la . Gains of 11 to 15 cents were
registered in a m ajority of the c ities, and
of 15 to 20 cents in eight c ities. Average
scale advances exceeded 22 cents in six
others. Helpers had their average rates in­
creased by 11 to 15 cents in 19 of the 49
cities studied, for which data were availa­
ble for this occupational group.
Advances
of 15 to 20 cents were recorded in six c itie s ,
and of 20 cents or more in four others.
Helpers' wage scales remained at the July
1957 level in three cities—Atlanta, Knoxville,
and Salt Lake City.

Wage adjustments during me year end­
ing July 1, 1958, resulted in scale advances
for 85 percent of the organized local m o to r­
truck drivers and for a sim ilar proportion
of the helpers. For both of these c la s s ifi­
cations, pay ra ises ranged from 10 to
cents an hour for half of the w orkers; ad­
vances of \ l l/ z cents or m ore and those of
le ss than 10 cents were each applicable to
about a sixth of the workers (table 3). The
increase m ost frequently reported was 10
cents; approximately 15 percent of the driv­
ers and 13 percent of the helpers had their
scales adjusted upward by this amount. In
term s of percentage, increases ranged from
4 to 8 percent for slightly m ore than half
of the motortruck drivers and their h elp ers.
Advances of 8 to 10 percent affected a twelfth
of the drivers and a seventh of the helpers;
and those of 10 or m ore percent, a tenth of
the workers in both classifications (table 2).
On a regional b a s is , average scale ad­
vances for local city truckdrivers varied
from 8 to 14 cents in all regions except the
Southeast and Southwest. In these regions,
the respective increases were 23 and 18
cents. The rate of gain was 1 0 .9 and 9 .2
percent, respectively, in the two Southern
regions, and from 3 .5 to 6 .1 percent in the
other regions. Among d riv ers' h elp ers, av­
erage hourly scales increased 17 cents in
the Middle W est and Southwest regions, 13
cents in the Southeast, and from 5 to 13
cents in the others. The rate of advance
ranged from 2 .9 percent in the Mountain
States to 9 percent in the Southeast. On a
ce n ts-p er-h ou r b a s is , the i n c r e a s e was




On a p e r c e n t a g e b asis, the advance
varied from 4 to 7 percent for drivers in
three of every five cities and for helpers in
one of every two cities (table 4).
The increases in some of the cities were
partly attributable to provisions of contracts
negotiated on a broad regional basis for
num erically important groups of trucking
w orkers.
These contracts provide for in­
creases in rates and reductions in weekly
hours at stated intervals over a period of
several y e a rs, until previously determined
rates and work schedules are attained.
As a result of the widespread scale
changes during the y ear, union rates in e f­
fect on July 1, 1958, averaged $ 2 .4 1 an hour
for motortruck drivers and helpers c o m ­
bined; $ 2 .4 4 for d riv ers, and $ 2 . 1 8 for
helpers. Labor-management contracts stipu­
lated rates of $ 2 . 2 5 to $ 2 . 5 0 for slightly
more than two-fifths of the d riv ers, and of
$ 2 . 5 0 to $ 2 . 7 5 for alm ost three-tenths.
Hourly scales of at least $ 2 . 75 affected
slightly m ore than a tenth of the m otor­
truck operators, as did rates of $2 to $ 2 . 2 5
an hour.
Negotiated scales for two-fifths
of the helpers ranged from $2 to $ 2 . 2 5 an
hour and, for alm ost the same proportion,
from $ 2 . 2 5 to $ 2 . 5 0 .
Pay rates of le ss
than $2 were in effect for alm ost a sixth of
the helpers (table 5).
City and Regional Scale Levels

Although b r o a d regional agreements
were negotiated for some types of local
trucking, negotiations for m ost of the lab ormanagement contracts were conducted on a
