Building

Trades, July

Summary

Many labor-management contracts for
the building trades provide for employer
payments to insurance (health and welfare),
pensions, and vacation funds.
When these
payments were added to basic wage rates, the
average for all building-trades workers on
July 1, 1969, was $ 6 . 1 7 an hour.
C orre­
sponding averages were $ 6 .5 4 for journeymen
and $ 4 . 8 2 for helpers and laborers.
The
tabulation shows the relative importance of
employer contributions to specified funds as
a percent of wage rates since 1965. 1

Union hourly wage rates for buildingtrades workers in cities with 100, 000 or
more inhabitants, averaged $ 5 .5 4 on July 1,
1969, according to the Bureau of Labor Sta­
tistics 63d annual survey. This was 43 cents,
or 8 .3 percent, above the average for July 1,
1968.
Average hourly rates w e r e $ 5 .8 7
for journeymen and $ 4 .3 3 for helpers and
laborers— up 8 .4 and 7 .6 percent, respec­
tively, during the year.
The 1968—69 advance in average hourly
rates for all trades (8. 3 percent) was the
largest annual increase since 1947-4:8 when
hourly rates rose 10.6 percent. It was con­
siderably larger than the 6.6-percent increase
in 1967—68 which, in turn, was substantially
higher than the 5. 6-percent increase for the
year ending July 1, 1967.
The 1968—69 in­
crease raised the Bureau's index of union
wage rates to 166.9 (1957—59=100). The index
for journeymen rose 166.4, and for helpers
and laborers to 170.3.

Straight-time work schedules averaged
39. 3 hours a week on July 1, 1969— about the
same as a year earlier (table 5). A 40-hour
schedule applied to about 7 out of 8 of the
workers surveyed. Weekly work schedules of
35 hours, covering nearly all of the remaining
workers, were typically reported in Detroit,
Newark, New York City, and San Francisco
(table 15).

During the y e a r ending July 1, 1969,
96 percent of the workers surveyed received
upward adjustments in wage rates.
Nearly
10 percent of the workers received increases
of less than 4 percent and a slightly smaller
proportion were granted adjustments of 15
percent or more (table 8). Increases of 4 to
7 percent applied to about 34 percent of the
workers; 7 to 10 percent, to 21 percent; and
10 to 15 percent, to 24 percent.

Scope and Method of Study
Union wage rates and hours are deter­
mined by collective bargaining between trade
unions and employers, and are defined as
(1) the basic (minimum) rates, excluding holi­
day, vacation, or other benefit payments regu­
larly made or credited to the worker each pay
period, and (2) the maximum schedules of
hours at straight-time rates. Rates over the
negotiated minimum, which may be paid for
special qualifications or other reasons, are
not included.

On a cents-per-hour basis, wage rate
increases during the year ranged from less
than 20 cents, for about 4 percent of the
workers, to 90 cents or more for about 6 per­
cent. (See table 9 .) Nearly 20 percent of the
workers clustered in the array of wage-rate
increases were at 30 to 40 cents and 17 per­
cent at 40 to 50 cents an hour.
Among the 24 journeymen trades studied,
average wage rates ranged from $ 6 . 2 2 an
hour for plumbers to $ 5 . 2 1 for slate and tile
roofers on July 1, 1969 (table 6). The range
in average wage rates for the nine helper and
laborer classifications included in the survey
was from $5.19 for terrazzo workers' helpers
to $ 3 . 3 4 for composition roofers' helpers.
Building laborers, constituting about threefourths of the workers in the helper-laborer
classifications, averaged $ 4 . 2 6 an h o u r .




1, 1969

The information presented in this bul­
letin was based on union rates in effect on
July 1, 1969, and c o v e r e d approximately
725,000 journeymen and 200,000 helpers
and laborers in 68 cities actually surveyed.

1 The Bureau first developed average employer contributions
per hour in 1965.

2
Data w e r e obtained primarily from local
union officials by m a i l questionnaire; in
some instances, Bureau economists visited
local union officials to obtain the desired
information.
Based on the I960 Census of Population,
the current survey was designed to reflect
union wage rates in building construction in
all cities having a population of 100, 000 or
m ore, excluding Honolulu. All cities having
a population of a half million or more were
included, as were most cities in the 250, 000—
500, 000 group.
The cities in the 100, 000—
250, 000 group selected for study were dis­
tributed widely throughout the United States.
Data for some cities were weighted to com ­
pensate for cities not surveyed. To provide




appropriate representation in the combination
of data, each region was considered sepa­
rately w h e n city weights were assigned.
Average hourly wage rates, designed to
show current levels, were based on all rates
reported in effect on July 1, 1969. Individual
rates were weighted by the number of union
members at the rate.
These averages are
not designed for precise year-to-year com ­
parisons because of fluctuations in m em ­
bership and in job classifications studied.
Average cents-per-hour and percent changes
were based on comparable quotations for the
various occupational classification in both
periods, weighted by the membership re ­
ported in the current (1969) survey.
The
index series, designed for trend purposes,
was constructed sim ilarly.
