Union W ages and Hours:
Printing Industry, Ju ly 1, 1965

Scope and M ethod of Study
Union scales are those agreed on through
collective bargaining betw een trad e unions
and em ployers, and defined as (1) the basic
(m inim um ) wage scales (excluding holiday,
vacation, or other benefit paym ents reg u larly
m ade or cred ited to the w orker each pay
period) and (2) the m axim um schedules of
hours at stra ig h t-tim e ra te s . R ates in excess
of the negotiated m inim um , which m ay be
paid for special qualifications or other r e a ­
sons, are not included.

Sum m ary
Wage scales of unionized p rin tin g -tra d e s
w o rk ers in c ities of 100, 000 population or
m ore ro se an average of 10 cents an hour,
or 2. 8 p ercent, during the y ear ending July 1,
1965. The in c re a se was 11 cents in book
and job shops and 10 cents in new spaper e s ­
tab lish m en ts, according to the B u reau 's an ­
nual survey of union scales in the printing
tra d e s .
L ab o r-m an ag em en tco n tract scale changes
th at becam e effective betw een July 1, 1964,
and July 1, 1965, ra ise d the hourly scale for
fiv e-six th s of the p rin tin g -tra d e s w o rk ers
cov ered by the survey. S cales advanced 8 to
10 cents an hour for a fifth of the w o rk e rs;1
10 to 12 cents for alm o st another fifth; and
12 to 15 cents for an eighth. H ourly ad ­
vances of 20 cents or m ore affected a tenth
of the w o rk ers, and those of 6 to 8 cents
w ere applicable to a slightly sm a lle r p ro ­
portion. The advances re p re se n te d gains
of 2 to 3 p ercen t for slightly m o re than a
th ird of the w o rk ers, 3 to 4 p ercen t for a
fifth, 4 to 6 p ercen t for a tenth, and 6 p e r­
cent or m ore for alm o st another tenth.
Union wage scales on July 1, 1965, a v e r­
aged $ 3 .7 3 an hour for all p rin tin g -tra d e s
w o rk ers com bined— $ 3. 58 in book and job
shops (com m ercial) and $ 3 .9 4 in new spaper
estab lish m en ts. Half of the p rin tin g -tra d e s
w o rk ers had negotiated scales of $ 3 .5 0 to
$ 4 .2 0 an hour and a fourth had scales of
$ 4 .2 0 an hour or m o re.
S traig h t-tim e w eekly w ork schedules av­
eraged 36.4 hours on July 1, 1965, unchanged
xrom the previous y e a r. The m ost com m on
w orkw eek, 37 V2 hours, applied to tw o-fifths
of the w o rk ers. S traig h t-tim e w orkw eeks
of 35 hours w ere specified for n early a
th ird of the p rin tin g -tra d e s w o rk ers and of
36 V4 hours for a fifth.
H ealth and w elfare (insurance) p ro g ram s
financed wholly or in p a rt by the em ployers
w ere specified in lab o r-m an ag em en t a g re e ­
m ents applicable to fo u r-fifth s of the printing
trad esm e n . S im ilarly financed pension plans
w ere provided in co n tracts covering slightly
m ore than th re e -fifth s of the w o rk ers.

The inform ation p resen ted in this bulletin
was based on union scales in effect on July 1,
1965, and covered approxim ately 105, 000
p rin tin g -trad es w o rk ers in 69 cities with
populations of 100, 000 or m o re. Data w ere
obtained p rim a rily from lo cal union officials
by m ail questionnaire; in som e in stan ces,
B ureau econom ists v isited local union offi­
cials to obtain the d e sire d inform ation.
The c u rre n t survey re fle c ts union wage
scales in the printing in d u stry in all cities
of 100, 000 population or m o re, excluding
Honolulu. All cities w ith 500, 000 population
or m ore w ere included, as w ere m ost cities
in the 250, 000 to 500,000 group. The cities
in the 100,000 to 250, 000 group selected for
study w ere d istrib u ted widely throughout the
United S tates. D ata for som e of the cities
included in the study w ere w eighted to com ­
pensate for cities not surveyed. To provide
ap p ro p riate rep re se n ta tio n in the com bination
of data, each geographic region was con­
sid ered sep arately when city w eights w ere
assigned.
A verage hourly sc a le s, indicating c u rre n t
lev els, w ere based on all scales re p o rted in
effect on July 1, 1965. Individual scales
w ere w eighted by the num ber of union m em ­
b e rs at each ra te . These averag es a re not
designed for p re c ise y e a r-to -y e a r co m p ari­
sons because of fluctuations in m em bersh ip
and in job classificatio n s studied. A verage
ce n ts-p e r-h o u r and p ercen t changes from
July 1, 1964, to July 1, 1965, w ere, how­
ever, based on com parable quotations for the
vario us occupational classificatio n s in both
perio ds, w eighted by the m em bersh ip r e ­
ported for the c u rre n t (1965) survey. The
index se rie s , providing lo n g -term tren d data,
is sim ilarly con structed .

1 For ease of reading, in this and subsequent discussions of
tabulations, the limits of the class intervals are designated as 8 to
10 cents, 2 to 3 percent, etc. , instead of using the more precise
terminology, 8 and under 10 cents, 2 and under 3 percent, etc.

T rend and Scale Changes
Scale rev isio n s w hich becam e effective
betw een July 1, 1964, and July 1, 1965,
ra ise d the lev el of union hourly scales for
p rin tin g -tra d e s w o rk ers 2 .8 p ercen t. This
ris e , slightly la rg e r than the 2. 6 p ercen t
in c re a se re c o rd e d in the preceding 12-m onth
period, advanced the B u reau 's index (1957—
59 = 100) to 122.7 (table 1). R eflected in the
advance w ere gains of 3. 1 p ercen t in book
and job (com m ercial) shops and 2. 5 percen t
in new spaper plants, which ra ise d the indexes
for those branch es of the in d u stry to 124.4
and 120. 1, resp ectiv ely .
The ra te of gain v a rie d am ong the in d i­
vidual tra d e s in both types of printing e sta b ­
lish m en ts. The v a ria tio n w a s la rg e r in
co m m ercial shops than in new spaper e sta b ­
lish m en ts. Among the 12 tra d e s in book and
job shops, gains ranged from 1.5 p ercen t for
electro ty p e rs to 3.7 p ercen t for m achine te n ­
d e rs (m achinists); and am ong the 8 tra d e s in
new spaper plants, from 2. 2 percen t for m a ­
chine o p e ra to rs and photoengravers to 3 .3
p ercen t for m a ile rs (table 5).
On a c e n ts-p e r-h o u r b a s i s , average
hourly scales ro se 11 cents in co m m ercial
shops and 10 cents in new spaper e sta b lish ­
m en ts. Among the individual tra d e s, how­
ev er, advances in average hourly scales
in book and job shops v a rie d from 6 cents
for e le c tro ty p e rs to 14 cents for m achine te n ­
d ers (m achinists); and in new spaper plants,
from 9 cents for m achine o p e ra to rs, m achine
ten d ers . (m ach in ists), and ph otoengravers to
12 cents for m a ile rs.
Many of the union co n tracts in effect on
July 1, 1965, w ere negotiated for 2 y e a rs—
a few w ere for longer p erio d s. C o ntracts
of m ore than a y e a r's duration frequently
provided for wage reopenings o r contained
provisions for periodic in c re a s e s . Although
individual co n tracts provided for in c re a se s
at vario us d ates, only those scale changes
th at actually becam e effective betw een July 1,
1964, and July 1, 1965, w ere included in the
c u rre n t study. Some of th ese scale rev isio n s
w ere provided for in co n tracts which becam e
effective p rio r to July 1, 1964. A num ber of
agreem en ts negotiated during the y e a r ending
July 1, 1965, contained provisions for ra te
in c re a se s a fte r th at date. Thus, the scale
rev isio n s p resen ted h e re in do not re fle c t the
to tal wage scale changes negotiated in in di­
vidual c o n tracts during the survey y e a r.
B etw een July 1, 1964, and July 1, 1965,
hourly wage s c a l e s w ere in c re a se d for
slightly m ore than nine-ten ths of the prin tin gtra d e s w o rk ers in co m m ercial shops and



for th re e -fo u rth s of those in new spaper e s ­
tab lish m en ts. R ates w ere advanced for at
le a st fo u r-fifth s of the w o rk ers in 3 of
ev ery 4 tra d e s in co m m ercial shops and
for 2 of the 8 c ra fts in new spaper plants.
In crease s in hourly scales b e t w e e n
July 1, 1964, and July 1, 1965, for book and
job shopw ork v a rie d fro m 8 to 10 cents for
alm o st a fourth of the w o rk ers; 10 to 12 cents
for n early a fifth; and 6 to 8 cents for a
tenth. A dvances of 12 to 15 cents w ere
re g iste re d by a seventh, as w ere those of
15 cents or m o re. In new spaper e sta b lish ­
m en ts, hourly scales ro se 10 to 12 cents for
slightly m o re than a sixth of the w o rk ers; 8 to
10 cents for alm o st a sixth; 12 to 15 cents
for a tenth; 15 cents or m ore for a fifth
(table 4).
A dvances during the 12-m onth period
re p re se n te d gains of 2 to 3 p ercen t for twofifths of the p rin tin g -tra d e s w o rk ers in com ­
m e rc ia l shops and alm o st th re e -te n th s of
those in new spaper estab lish m en ts, and of
3 to 4 p ercen t for a fifth and a sixth, re sp e c ­
tively. In both types of shops, the gain
was 5 p ercen t o r m ore for an eighth of the
w o rk ers, and le ss than 2 p ercen t for a tenth
(table 3).
Rate V ariation s by Type of W ork
C o m m ercial (book and job) printshops
produce m any differen t i t e m s in varying
quantities; new spaper estab lish m en ts, on the
other hand, a re g eared to m ass production of
a single re c u rrin g item at re g u la r in te rv a ls.
B ecause of th ese v ariatio n s, the com position
of the lab or fo rce d iffers m a te ria lly in the
two b ranch es of the printing in du stry . A
sub stantial pro p o rtio n of the lab or force in
co m m ercial shops is co m p rised of bindery
wom en, m a ile rs , and p re ss a ssista n ts and
fe e d e rs, who ty pically p erfo rm routine and
le s s -s k ille d task s; in new spaper printing,
how ever, journeym en a re req u ired in g re a te r
prop ortio ns to m eet daily dem ands. T hese
d ifferent w ork force req u irem en ts a re r e ­
flected in the av erage wage ra te s , w hich take
into account the num ber of p rin tin g -trad es
w o rk ers at the v ario u s ra te s of pay in each
type of estab lish m en t.
N egotiated wage s c a l e s of unionized
p rin tin g -tra d e s w o rk ers, on July 1, 1965,
averaged $ 3 .58 an hour in book and job
shops and $3 .94 in new spaper estab lish m en ts.
N ightw ork scales in new spaper plants a v e r­
aged 20 cen ts, o r 5.2 p ercen t, higher than
dayw ork sc a le s, $ 4. 04 com pared w ith $ 3. 84
(table 7). B ecause relativ ely few w o rk ers
a re em ployed on nightw ork in co m m ercial
shops, data fo r such w o rk ers w ere excluded
fro m the study.

3
Although dayw ork scales av eraged higher
in new spaper estab lish m ents than in book and
job shops, th ere w as no co n sisten t p a tte rn of
ra te differen tials among occupations com m on
to both types of printing. D ayw ork scales
for m a ile rs w ere, on the av erag e, 12 cents
an hour higher in new spaper estab lish m en ts
th an in book and job shops. S tereo ty p ers and
photo eng ra v e rs on co m m ercial w ork averaged
38 and 29 cents an hour, resp ectiv ely , above
those on new spaper w ork.
N egotiated w a g e scales in effect on
July 1, 1965, v aried w idely for both types of
prin tin g. In book and job shops, dayw ork
scales ranged from $ 1. 65 an hour for bindery
w om en in L ittle Rock and M em phis, and for
som e p re ss a ssista n ts and feed ers in M em ­
phis, to $ 5 .4 1 an hour for f irs t p re ssm e n
on a 4 -color offset p re ss in St. L ouis. Wage
scales of $ 3. 50 to $ 4 an hour w ere specified
in lab or-m anagem ent agreem ents for th re e tenths of the p rin tin g -tra d e s w o rk ers in com ­
m e rc ia l shops, and of $ 3 to $ 3 .5 0 for an
eighth. N egotiated scales of $ 4 or m ore
w ere rep o rted for a th ird of the w o rk ers,
including som e w o rk ers in all tra d e s except
bind ery wom en and p re ss a ssista n ts and feed­
e r s . Seven-eighths of the photoengravers had
scales of $ 4 or m ore an hour, as did seventenths of the ste re o ty p e rs, n early six -tenth s
of the e le c tro ty p e rs, about half the hand com ­
p o sito rs, m achine o p e ra to rs, and m achine
ten d ers (m achinists), and tw o-fifths of the
cylinder p ressm en . R ates of le s s than $ 2 . 60
an hour w ere re p o rte d for a sixth of the
co m m ercial shop w o rk e rs, including seveneighths of the bindery wom en, a sixth of the
m a ile rs , and a sm all pro p o rtio n of w o rk ers
in four other tra d e s (table 7). Among bindery
wom en, slightly m ore than half had ra te s of
le ss than $ 2 .2 0 an hour, and only an eighth
had a scale of at le a st $ 2. 60 an hour.
In new spaper plants, hourly wage scales
v a rie d from $1. 60 for som e d ay -sh ift m a ile rs
in N orfolk to $ 5 .7 5 for n ig h t-sh ift s te re o ­
ty p e rs on G erm an and P o lish language new s­
p ap ers in Chicago. Wage scales of $ 3 .5 0 to
$ 4 an hour w ere in effect for slightly m ore
than half of the day -sh ift w o rk ers and for
about tw o-fifths of the nigh t-sh ift craftsm en .
Scales of $4 o r m ore an hour applied to
th re e -te n th s of the dayw orkers and slightly
m o re than half of the nightw orkers; som e
w o rk ers in each tra d e had such sc a le s. F iv esixths of the photoengravers and fo u r-fifth s
of the p re ssm e n -in -c h a rg e had negotiated
scales of $ 4 or m ore an hour, as did at
le a st tw o-fifths of the w o rk ers in all other
c ra fts except m a ile rs.
Among the 12 printing tra d e s surveyed
in book and job shops, average hourly sc a le s,
except for bindery wom en ($ 2. 23) and p re ss



a ssista n ts and feed ers ($ 3 .2 1 ), v aried by
trad e from $ 3 .4 0 for m a ile rs to $ 4 .5 3 for
p h o toeng rav ers. Of the rem aining eight tra d e s,
stereo ty p ers and e lectro ty p ers a v e r a g e d
$ 4 .1 8 and $ 4 .0 6 an hour, resp ectiv ely , and
four o th ers averaged from $ 3 .8 5 to $ 3 .9 7 .
In new spaper plants, hourly scales averaged
highest ($4. 31) fo r photoengravers and low est
($3.64) for m a ile rs. Except for p re ssm e n -in charge ($4.28) average scales for the other
c ra fts showed little v ariatio n , ranging from
$ 3 .9 2 to $ 4 an hour.
N ightw ork scales on new spapers a v e r­
aged 20 cents an hour, or 5. 2 p ercen t, above
those for dayw ork. Among individual c ra fts,
d ifferen tials v a rie d from 15 to 32 cents and
in percentage te rm s, from 3. 5 to 7.7 p ercen t.
City and R egional V ariation s
The city and regio nal av erag es, p re ­
sented in tab les 8 and 9, a re designed to
show c u rre n t ra te levels; they do not m easu re
differen ces in union scales among a re a s.
S cales for individual c ra fts, of co u rse, v aried
from city to city. The city av erag es are
influenced not only by differen ces in ra te s
am ong c itie s, but also by differen ces in the
prop ortio n of organ ized w o rk ers in the v a r i­
ous c ra fts. Thus, a p a rtic u la r c ra ft or
classificatio n m ay not be organized in som e
a re a s or m ay be organized le ss intensively
in som e a re a s than in o th ers. In addition,

L abor-m anagem ent co n tract provisions
which becam e effective betw een July 1, 1964,
and July 1, 1965, resu lted in in c re a se d wage
scales for som e printing tra d e sm e n in each
of the cities surveyed. No effective scales
w ere rep o rted , how ever, f o r co m m ercial
shops in C harlotte o r for new spaper w ork in
P o rtlan d , and the scales rem ained unchanged
for book and job shops in Jackson, Lubbock,
and N orfolk, and for new spaper w ork in
Boston and G rand R apids. In co m m ercial
shops, hourly scales ro se 8 to 10 cents
in 25 c itie s, 10 to 12 cents in 12 c itie s,
6 to 8 cents in 10 c itie s, 12 to 15 cents
in 9 c itie s, and le ss than 6 cents in 5 other
citie s. In new spaper estab lish m en ts, the ad­
vance was 10 to 12 cents in 20 c itie s, 8 to
10 cents in 10 c itie s, 6 to 8 cents in 7 citie s,
15 cents or m o re in 14 c itie s, and le ss

35 citie s for co m m ercial w ork and in 25 c it­

cent in 19 and 14 c itie s, resp ectiv ely . Gains
of 4 p ercen t or m ore w ere reco rd ed in 5 c it­
ies for book and job shops and in 12 cities
for new spaper w ork (table 6).
When the 69 s u r v e y e d c itie s w ere
grouped according to population size, a v e r­
age hourly scales v a rie d by size of city and
by type of printing w ork done. In the group
of c itie s w ith a m illio n population o r m o re,
hourly sc a le s averaged $ 3. 83 in book and job
shops and $4. 14 in new spaper estab lish m en ts,
54 and 41 cen ts, resp ectiv ely , higher than in
the sm a lle st size studied (100,000 to 250,000).
A verage hourly scales fo r the individual
cities w ithin each population group v a rie d for
printing c ra ftsm e n in both types of e sta b lish ­
m en ts. The sp read betw een the highest and
low est city av erag es was g re a te s t for book
and job shops ($1.50) for c itie s in the 250,000
to 500, 000 population group, and for new s­
pap er estab lish m en ts ($ 1. 34) for c itie s in the
100, 000 to 250, 000 population group. It was
n arro w e st in the group of c itie s of a m illio n
population or m o re, 64 cents in co m m ercial
shops a n d 37 cents in new spaper plants
(table 8).
An overlapping of average hourly scales
existed am ong the vario us size groups. F o r
exam ple, the average scale for co m m ercial
printing in F re sn o , in the group of cities
w ith 100,000 to 250,000 population, the sm a ll­
e st size studied, w as higher than all of the
cities in the la rg e r size groups.
On a regional b a sis, average hourly
scales for all p rin tin g -tra d e s w o rk ers com ­
bined v a rie d from $ 3 .3 8 in the Southw est to
$ 4 .0 3 in the P acific. Scales averaged low est
in the Southw est and highest in the P acific
regio n for both book and job shopw ork and
new spaper printing. The resp ectiv e average
hourly scales w ere $ 3. 08 and $ 3. 89 for com ­
m e rc ia l w ork, and $ 3. 53 and $ 4 . 24 for new s­
pap er printing (table 9).
S tandard W orkweek
Changes in n e g o t i a t e d w eekly w ork
schedules at stra ig h t-tim e ra te s during the
y ear ending July 1, 1965, affected re la tiv e ly
few w o rk e rs. The re p o rte d changes had no
effect on the average stra ig h t-tim e w orkw eek
for all printing c ra ftsm e n com bined, which
rem ain ed at 36 .4 h o urs. D ay-shift schedules
averaged 36 .4 hours in book and job shops
and 36. 7 hours in new spaper estab lish m en ts;
n ig h t-sh ift w ork s c h e d u l e s in new spaper
plants av eraged 36 hours p er w eek (table 10).



The m ost com m on w eekly w ork schedule,
h o urs, w as in effect for th ree-eig h th s
of the book and job shopw orkers and alm ost
half of those in new spaper p lan ts. N egotiated
w eekly schedules of 35 ho urs w ere specified
for slightly m ore than a th ird of the printingtra d e s w o rk ers in co m m ercial shops and for
alm o st th re e -te n th s of those in new spaper
plants; of 36 V4 ho urs fo r a fifth of the book
and job shopw orkers and a sixth of the new s­
pap er printing craftsm en .
H ealth, In su ran ce, and P ension P lans
N egotiated health, in su ran ce, and pen­
sion p ro g ram s in the prin tin g in d u stry have
in c re a se d in recen t y e a rs, although le ss ra p ­
idly than in som e in d u s trie s .2 The rate of
developm ent has undoubtedly been influenced
by p ro g ram s o p erated by a num ber of unions
fo r m any y e a rs, w hich provide m em b ers with
one or m o re types of ben efits.
L abo r-m anagem en t ag reem en ts providing
for health and in su ran ce p ro g ram s affected

visions for pension plans— fo u r-fifth s com ­

H ealth and in su ran ce p ro g ram s w ere app li­
cable to 7 of ev ery 8 w o rk ers in book and
job shops, and to 3 of every 4 on new spaper
w ork. P ension plans affected tw o -th ird s of
the w o rk ers in co m m ercial shops and alm ost
th re e -fifth s of those on n ew spap ers.
Of the prin tin g trad esm en provided health
and in su ran ce protection, nine-ten ths w ere
cov ered by plans en tirely financed by the
em ployer. Such p l a n s w ere included in
ag reem en ts affecting over n ine-ten ths of the
co m m ercial shopw orkers and alm o st seveneighths of those on new spapers. E m plo yerfinanced pension plans p rev ailed for slightly

Union S cales by City and T rade
Table 13 p resen ts the union scales of
w ages and hours in effect on July 1, 1964,
and July 1, 1965, for the individual tra d e s
in each of the 69 cities included in the study.
The prevalence of negotiated health, insurance, and
pension programs in the printing industry was first studied by the
Bureau as of July 1, 1954. Information gathered on these plans
was restricted to those financed entirely or in part by the em­
ployer. Plans financed by workers through union dues or assess­
ments were excluded. No attempt was made to secure information
on the kind and extent of benefits provided or on the cost of plans
providing such benefits.
