WAGES AND HOURS OF LABOR IN THE BOOT AND SHOE INDUSTRY,
1907 TO 1924
INTRODUCTION AND SUMMARY
Average earnings per hour, average full-time hours per week,
average nours actually worked and average earnings actually re­
ceived in one week, and average full-time earnings per week: are
presented in this bulletin, by occupation and State, for 27,144
males and 18,316 females in the boot and shoe industry in the United
States in 1924. Summaries for specified years, 1907 to 1924, and
index numbers for specified years, 1910 to 1924, are also given.
Data were not collected for the years for which figures are not
shown.1
The wage peak of the industry was reached in 1920, at which time
the general level of hourly earnings was two and one-third times
that of 1913 and two ana one-half times that of 1910. Between
1920 and 1922 average hourly earnings decreased about 10 per cent,
and between 1922 and 1924 increased about 3 per cent.
Regular or customary working hours per week decreased 11 per
cent between 1913 and 1924. Because of this reduction of hours,
full-time weekly earnings did not increase in the same proportion
as hourly^earnings. Full-time weekly earnings in 1920 were a little
more than twice the earnings of 1913, with a drop of about 6 per
cent between 1920 and 1924. The changes in earnings and hours
are shown by index numbers for the industry as a whole on page 21.
The data "for each of the years covered in this bulletin were taken
by agents of the bureau directly from the records of the establish­
ments. The number of establishments furnishing data varied from
year to year, ranging from 26 in 1907, the initial year, to 143 in 1918.
A total of 106 establishments were covered in 1924. The 1924 data
were taken from the January records of 70 factories, from the Feb­
ruary records of 23 factories, from the March records of 6 factories,
and from the April records of 7 factories. The mass of the data,
therefore, is as of January and February.
i The previous investigations of wages and hours of labor in boot and shoe manufacturing have been
made and published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics as follows: Nineteenth Annual Report, covering
1890 to 1903; Bulletin No. 59 (July, 1905), covering 1903 and 1904; Bulletin No. 65 (July, 1900), covering •
1904 and 1905; Bulletin No. 71 (July, 1907), covering 1905 and 1906; Bulletin No. 77 (July, 1908), covering
1906 and 1907; Bulletin No. 134 (August, 1913), covering 1907 to 1912; Bulletin No. 154 (May, 1914), cover­
ing 1912 and 1913; Bulletin No. 178 (August, 1915), covering 1913 and 1914; Bulletin No. 232 (May, 1918),
covering 1914 and 1916; Bulletin No. 260 (November, 1919), covering 1916 and 1918; Bulletin No. 278 (April,
1921), covering 1920; and Bulletin No. 324 (March, 1923), covering 1922.

WAGES AND HOURS OE LABOR— BOOTS AND SHOES

The 1924 tabulation shows 38 occupations including males only,
11 occupations including females only, and 29 occupations including
both males and females. A very small number of females was found
in 10 of the 38 occupations for which data are shown for males only,
and a small number of males was found in 10 of the 11 occupations for
which data are shown for females only. In each case the number
was too insignificant to be representative and such employees have,
therefore, been included in the group which is designated “ other
employees” in this report.
In all but 2 of the 29 occupations in which both males and females
are shown, the full-time weekly earnings of males exceed that of
females. The greatest difference in the earnings of the sexes is
$17.79, in the occupation of cutters, vamp and whole shoe, machine,
in the cutting department, and the least, $0.97, for lacers in the
fitting department.
In 1924 the average full-time weekly earnings of male employees
in specified occupations ranged from $15.26 for sock liners in the
finisning department to $45.24 for Goodyear welters in the bottom­
ing department. The occupational averages for females ranged
from $12.85 for channel openers and channel closers in bottommg
department to $25.64 for vampers in the fitting department.
A summary of earnings and hours of labor from 1907 to 1924, by
occupation, is presented in Table 1.

IN T R O D U C T IO N AND SU M M A RY

For the years, 1907 to 1913, data were collected only for employees
in certain of the principal occupations. In and since 1914 data were
collected for employees in all occupations and employees not appear­
ing under specified occupations are grouped as “ other employees.”
In 1914,1916, and 1918 the number of employees included under the
term “ other employees” is quite large as data were shown separately
for only 37 to 39 occupations in those years. In 1920 and later years,
however, figures are presented separately for 79 occupations. Con­
sequently the number of employees included under the group desig­
nated as “ other employees” is considerably less since the increase m
the number of specified occupations. Therefore, the averages for
“ other employees” in Table 1 are not strictly comparable as between
the several years.
To aid in making comparisons from year to year of full-time hours
per week, of earnings per hour, and of full-time earnings per week,
index numbers have been computed and are presented in Table 2,
below, for the years 1910 to 1924 for the industry as a whole and for
each occupation for which data are available as far back as 1913.
The index numbers for the industry from 1910 to 1914 were com­
puted from the averages of the combined data for the principal occuations. Since 1914 the combined figures for all occupations have
een used in computing thu index.
Having computed the index number for 1914 from the principal
occupations the index for succeeding years is obtained by increasing
or decreasing the index for 1914 in proportion to the increase or
decrease in the average for all occupations as between 1914 and the
specified succeeding year.
The reasons for using the data for 1913, the year immediately
preceding the war, as the base for index numbers are: First, the con­
ditions prevailing during the war were abnormal and should be
measured by a period in which normal conditions prevailed; and
second, it is believed that the year 1913 ended a distinct economic
period.

WAGES AND H O U R S OP LABOR.— BOOTS AND SH O E S

Comparatively few wage changes were made during the period
between January 1, 1922, and the period of the 1924 study. Three
establishments mcreased rates, sucli increases ranging from 10 per
cent for the establishment making the lowest increase to 20 per cent
for the one making the highest increase. One made an increase
of 30 per cent, followed by a reduction of 10 per cent; one gave an
increase of 10 per cent, and later a reduction which restored the
previous rate; four made reductions ranging from 10 to 15 per cent;
11 made reductions ranging from 5 per cent for the lowest to 10 per
cent for the highest and later each of the 11 made increases restoring
the rates in effect prior to the reduction. Some establishments
made individual wage changes which did not apply to groups of em­
ployees or occupations as a whole.
Twenty-six o f the 106 establishments reported bonus systems in
effect during the period between M ay 1, 1922, and the date of this
study. ‘ One of the 26 discontinued the bonus in May, 1923. The
bonus systems of 12 establishments were for “ leather saving”
and applied only to cutters; 6 were based on earnings, 4 on service, and
3 on attendance.
A bonus fo r “ p rod u ctio n or leath er s a v in g ” m eans th a t th e earn­
ings of cu tters, fo r exam ple, a t their regu lar piece or tim e rates
w ere increased b y the add ition of an am ou n t th a t w as sa v ed b y
cu ttin g m ore th an a stan d ard or specified n u m ber of pieces or p a rts
of shoes from a stan d ard or fixed q u a n tity of m aterial. E x a m p le :
T h e stan d ard or specified nu m ber of pieces to b e cu t from a q u a n tity
of m aterial is 100. A cu tte r w ho w as paid a regu lar ra te of $1 p er
hour cu t 110 pieces from th e q u a n tity and w as p aid 1 cen t ad d itio n al
fo r each cu t o ver 100, th ere b y rqaking his earnings $ 1.10 fo r th a t hour.

A bonus on “ earnings” means that the wages of employees at
their regular piece or time rates were increased by the addition of a
specified per cent.
Under a “ service” bonus an employee who was in the service of a
company when the bonus was paid, and who had been in service for
a specified period of time, received an additional amount; for examole,
a specified per cent of his earnings, a per capita division of net profits,
etc.
A bonus for “ attendance” means that earnings of employees at
their regular piece or time rates were increased by the addition of
a specified per cent or amount as a reward for attendance all or a
specified part of the time that there was work to be done by employees
of the establishments as a whole.
The regular or customary hours of an establishment are the hours of
operation when the establishment is working its recognized standard
oi full time; in other words, the time between beginning work in the
morning and closing in the afternoon less the regular time off duty for
midday lunch or dinner.
Table 1, pages 3 to 20, shows for specified years, 1907 to 1924, the
per cent of employees in each occupation in each classified group of
regular or customary full-time hours per week.
Table A, pages 39 to 79, shows for 1924, the number of employees
in each occupation within each group of regular or customary full­
time hours per week.
Between M ay 1, 1922, and the period covered by the 1924 study,
regular or customary hours per week of 3 establishments were in­

creased from 45 to 48, the hours of 1 were reduced from 56% to 53%,
and the hours of another were reduced from 53 to 50%. No change
was made in the regular or customary hours of 100 establishments
and 1 made no report as to change.
The hours per day of 102 establishments were longer each day
Monday to Friday than on Saturday. Three did not work on Satur­
day. The hours of one establishment only were the same for all six
days of the week. The regular hours per day and per week are
shown in Table 5 for the 106 establishments. The hours of a small
number of employees in a few instances differed from the hours of
the establishment as a whole.

Table 6 shows for 14 of the principal occupations, average and
specified number of days of operation by establishments and number
oi days worked by employees in one week in 1924.
Days as here used means the number of calendar days or parts
of days that establishments were in operation or that employees
worked in one week.
The average number of days of operation for establishments was
obtained by weighting the days of operation of each establishment
by the number of employees regardless of the number of days worked
by individual employees.
The average number of days worked by employees of the occupation
is a simple average obtained by dividing tne aggregate number of
days worked by all employees ot the occupation m all the establish­
ments by the total number of employees of the occupation.
The first line of Table 6 shows that for the occupation of “ Cutters,
vamp and whole shoe, hand, ” data are presented for 84 establish­
ments; that the average number of days of operation in one week
is 5.7; that employees m this occupation in 3 establishments had the
opportunity to work on 4 days during the week; those in 15 estab-

In selecting establishments from which to obtain data the bureau
undertook to represent all States in which boot and shoe manufac­
turing is of material importance, the measure of importance being
the number of wage earners as reported by the United States Census
of Manufactures.
Table 9 shows by States the number of wage earners in this indus­
try as reported by the United States census of 1921, and the number
of establishments from which the bureau obtained data for 1924
together with the number of employees in such establishments.

WAGES AND HOURS OP LABOR— BOOTS AND SHOES

According to the census of 1921 approximately 97 per cent of the
total number of employees in the industry are found in the States in
which the establishments furnishing information to the Bureau of
Labor Statistics are located. The number of employees for which
the bureau obtained 1922 data and for which detailed information
for 1924 is presented in this report is more than 24 per cent of the
total number of persons in the industry in 1921, which renders the
figures fully representative of the industry.
Full-time hours per week are the regular or customary hours during
which, under normal conditions, employees of an occupation or of an
establishment have an opportunity to work. Full-time hours per
week, as presented in the tables of this report, do not in any way
indicate the amount of employment or the amount of unemployment
during any of the pay-roll periods covered in any of the yeails for
which data are shown. Some employees of an occupation or of an
establishment may have worked more than full time during the
pay-roll period taken, due to overtime work, while others may have
worked less than full time on account of having been sick, disabled,
or laid off part time, or of having been in service less than full time on
account o f termination of service before the end of the pay-roll period
covered or of having entered service after the beginning of the period.
The amount of employment and conversely of unemployment is
indicated in the comparison of “ Average full-time hours per week”
with “ Average hours actually worked in one week,” which averages
are shown in parallel columns in Table A, pages 39 to 79.
The average earnings per hour for employees in each occupation
were computed by dividing the combined earnings of all employees
during the pay-roll period by the combined hours worked by all
employees in the occupation.
N o separation has been made of piece workers and time workers.
In establishments in which no record was regularly kept of the
actual time worked by employees at piece work, a day-by-day record
of all time actuallv worked by each employee who did any piece work
during the pay-roll period covered was kept by the establishments at
the request of the agent of the bureau.
Average full-timenours per week for employees in each occupation
were computed by dividing the combined full-time hours per week of
all employees in the occupation by the number of employees in the
occupation during the pay-roll period covered. The full-time horn's
per week for each employee were used in arriving at this average
even though some employees worked more or less than full time on
account of overtime, sickness, disability, or some other cause.
Average full-time earnings per week for employees in each occu­
pation were computed by multiplying the average earnings per hour
of all employees m the occupation by the average full-time hours per
week. This assumes that tne earnings for full time would have been
at the same average rate per hour as was received during the time that
was actually worked in the week covered.

WAGES AND HOURS OF LABOR— BOOTS AND SHOES

GENERAL TABLES
In addition to the text tables already shown, four general tables
are presented as follows:
,
Table A ^ A v e ra g e hours and earning s an d classified fu ll- tim e hours
p er week, by departm ent, occupation, sex, and State, 1924*

The presentation in Table A in parallel columns of “ Average full­
time hours per week” and “ Average hours actually worked in one
w eek ” is for the purpose of comparing the regular hours during
which, under normal conditions, it is possible for all employees in an
' occupation to work full time with the hours actually worked. One
show3 the full-time hours per week under normal conditions while
the other shows what was actually accomplished in one week b y em­
ployees in the occupation who worked any time during the week.
Table B — Average, and classified earning s p er hour fo r em ployees
in 14 ty p ic a l occupations, by departm ent, sex, and State, 1924•
Table C.— A verage and classified hours a c tu a lly worked in one week
by em ployees in 1 4 ty p ic a l occupations who w orked on as m any d ays as
there w as w ork in the occupation, by departm ent, sex, and State, 1924.
Table D .— A verage an d classified earnings a c tu a lly made in one week
by em ployees in 1 4 ty p ic a l occupations who worked on as m any d ays as
there w as w ork in the occupation, by departm ent, sex, and State, 1924•

In Tables C and D the average full-time hours and earnings per
week are for all employees in each of the 14 typical occupations
covered in 1924, while the average and classified hours actually
worked and the average and classified earnings actually received are
for employees in each occupation who worked on as many days as
there were days of work in the occupation in one week in 1924.
A ll employees who worked on less than the number of days on which
there was work were excluded from the average hours actually
worked and average earnings actually received, because it is the purpose
of these tables to show as nearly as possible the hours and the earn­
ings actually made by employees who worked all the time that there was
work and to compare therewith the average hours and the earnings
ih a t would have been made had each employee worked the regular
or customary full-time hours per week. This assumes that each
employee would have earned the same average per hour during full
time as was earned during the time actually worked in the week
covered.
Some employees worked on less than the number of days on which
there was work on account of being sick, disabled, laid off, absent
of own accord, termination of service before end of the week, or enter­
ing service after beginning of week.
