The averages were computed from data as to wage rates, hours, and earnings which were taken by agents of the Bureau of Labor Statistics directly from the pay rolls or other records of repre sentative meat-packing establishments for each of the years. The figures for 1917, 1921, and 1923 in this report were drawn from Bulletins Nos. 252, 294, and 373 as published by the bureau. The 1917 data are for 55,089 males in 66 establishments and 6,576 females in 51 establishments for pay periods of varying dates in the first half of the year and thus represent the period of the entrance of the United States into the World War. The 1921 data are for 30,075 males in 34 establishments and 3,329 females in 31 establishments for a pay period in April. The 1923 data are for 45,083 males in 38 establishments and 6,112 females in 37 establishments. The figures from 35 establishments are for a pay period in November and those from three establishments for a pay period in December. The 1925 data are for 52,702 males in 86 establishments and 6,595 females in 78 establishments. The data from 60 of the 86 establish ments are for a pay period in October, from 25 for a pay period in November, and the data from 1 establishment are for a pay period in December. The average rate of wages per hour for all males in all occupations and departments combined (Table 1, p. 41) was $0,271 for 1917, $0,504 for 1921, $0,487 for 1923, and $0,501 for 1925; and for females, $0,179 for 1917, $0,362 for 1921, $0,356 for 1923, and $0,347 for 1925. In 1917 the average rate of wages per hour for males in the occu pations for which averages are shown ranged from $0,226 for laborers in the casing department to $0,600 for splitters in the cattle-killing department, and for females ranged from $0,150 for kidney pullers, shavers, singers, neck brushers, and spreaders in the hog-killing department to $0,200 for stuffers in the sausage department. The average rate of wages per hour for laborers (male) in the casing department was $0,444 in 1921, $0,409 in 1923, and $0,423 in 1925, 1 2 SLAUGHTERING AND MEAT PACKING INDUSTRY compared with SO.226 in 1917; for splitters (male) in the cattlekilling department it was $0,855 in 1921, $0,837 in 1923, and $0,852 in 1925, compared with $0,600 in 1917; for kidney pullers, etc, (female), in the hog-killing department it was $0,336 in 1921, $0,331 in 1923, and $0,337 in 1925, compared with $0,150 in 1917; and for stuffers (female) in the sausage department it was $0,400 in 1921, $0,397 in 1923, and $0,367 in 1925, compared with $0,200 in 1917. The average basic or regular full-time hours per week (Table 1, p. 41) for males in all occupations and departments combined were 48.4 in 1921, 52.2 in 1923, and 50.2 in 1925; for females were 48.3 in 1921, 52.8 in 1923, and 49.4 in 1925; and for males and females combined were 48.4 in 1921, 52.3 in 1923, and 50.1 in 1925. Table 1 shows for each occupation and department the number of establishments and employees, the average rate of wages and earnings per hour, the average number of days worked in one week, the index numbers of rate of wages per hour with the 1917 average the base or 100, the basic or regular average full-time hours and rate of wages per week, average hours actually worked and earnings in one week, and the per cent of employees at each classified group of basic or regular full-time hours per week. The 1917 data in Table 1 are for 66 of the 83 establishments covered in that year. Data for the employees of two plants in Colorado, eight on the Pacific coast, and seven other plants, which had a biweekly pay period, are not included in the table. The average rates of wages per hour were affected less than one-half cent by omitting data for these 17 establishments. The average full-time rate of wages per week for each occupation was computed by multiplying the average rate of wages per hour for the occupation by the average basic or regular full-time hours per week. This shows the average amount that would have been earned in one week had an employee worked full time at his occupa tion with no overtime work. As an actual fact employees often work in more than one occupation during a pay period and this is taken into consideration in the average earnings per hour, which average is obtained by dividing the total earnings of employees at their regular occupation and at other work by the total actual hours worked. Employees are tabulated under the occupation at which they worked the most time during the pay period covered. The 1925 industry total at the end of the table shows that the basic or regular full-time hours per week of 3 per cent of the 59,297 em ployees were under 48, of 65 per cent were 48, of 3 per cent were over 48 and under 54, of 22 per cent were 54, of 3 per cent were over 54 and under 60, of 5 per cent were 60, and that the full-time hours per week of less than 1 per cent were over 60.

The average rate of wages per hour was computed by dividing the sum of the rates of wages per hour for all employees in the occupa tion by the number of employees. Equivalent rates of wages per hour for pieceworkers were computed for each employee by dividing the earnings at the occupation by the hours actually worked at the occupation. Average rates of wages per hour for employees who were paid weekly rates were computed for each employee by dividing the weekly rate by the basic or regular full-time hours per week. The average earnings per hour were computed by dividing the sum of the earnings in one week of all employees in tjie occupation, depart ment, or industry by the total hours actually worked during the week. Average earnings per hour for an occupation may be more or less than the average rate of wages per hour, being due to the fact that— (а) Some employees in the occupation worked overtime, for which they were paid one and one-half times the basic or regular rate of wages per hour. (б) Some employees in the occupation worked less than the “ guar anteed hours of pay” per week, but were paid the guaranty. (e) Some employees in the occupation worked part of their time at another occupation, the rate of pay for that work being more or less than the rate of pay per hour for work at their regular occupation. (d) Some employees, in addition to their own work, did the work of absent employees, for which they were paid in addition to their own regular wages or earnings. The average basic or regular full-time hours per week were com puted by dividing the sum of the basic or regular hours per week of all employees in the occupation by the number of employees in the occupation. For definition of “ basic or regular full-time, hours” see page 45. The 1925 data used in compiling this report were obtained from 31 of the most important plants of four large packing companies and from 55 plants of other companies. The bureau here expresses its appre ciation of the cooperation and courtesy extended by all of these companies. The plants scheduled are located in the most important meat-packing centers in California, Colorado, Connecticut, Florida, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, New York, Ohio, Oklahoma, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Texas, Washington, and Wisconsin. The wage earn ers (120,946) in 20 of these 22 States (excluding Connecticut and Oklahoma) represent 91 per cent of the number (132,792) in the industry in 1923. The number (59,297) covered in the 1925 study is approximately 45 per cent of the total number employed in the industry in 1923 and 49 per cent of the total number in the specified States (excluding Connecticut and Oklahoma). Including estimated number of wage earners for Connecticut and Oklahoma, the 22 States represent 9 2 ^ per cent of the total in the industry in 1923. SLAUGHTERING AND MEAT PACKING INDUSTRY 43 IMPORTANCE OF THE INDUSTRY The slaughtering and meat-packing industry is the largest engaged in the production of food products and is also one of the largest and most important industries in the United States. According to the census report the value of products in this industry in 1923 was $2,585,804,140. Consumers of cattle, hog, sheep, and calf products living in the large cities and great industrial centers are entirely dependent, and many of those living in the rural districts are to a very great extent dependent, upon the large packing companies for meat and meat food products. The large companies have at all times great quantities of fresh and cured meats and other meat food supplies in storage at the plants in which the animals are slaughtered and in which the meat and by-products are cured and prepared for food. They also have large branch storage houses in practically all of the important cities throughout the country, always well supplied to meet the demands of the local retail market. Refrigerator cars, owned, operated, and repaired by the packing companies have regu lar routes, delivering to branch storage houses or to retailers in railroad towns and villages in which there is no storage. Inspection of animals, carcasses, meats, etc., is made by employees of the Bureau of Animal Industry of the Department of Agriculture in all establishments for which data are shown in this report. This inspection is made to protect the public from diseased, unclean, or unwholesome meat and meat food products. A full description of such inspection appears in Bulletin 252, page 64. The figures in Table 2 were compiled from the United States cen sus reports. They show the importance of the industry and its growth during the period 1899 to 1923.

The work varies so that it is necessary that hours, wage rates, and earn ings be shown separately by department and by occupation. Figures are shown for 13 departments: Cattle killing, hog killing, sheep killing and calf killing, offal, hide, casing, cutting or fresh beef, cutting or fresh pork, lard and oleo oil, sausage, cured meat, canning, and maintenance and repair. Data were not taken for officials, clerks, salesmen, power-house employees, foremen, employees of box factories, brush, cooper, tin, or other shops in which products are entirely new, nor for employees of butterine, mincemeat, produce, extract, soap, curled-hair, wool, bone, and fertilizer departments. The departments and occupations are described in Bulletin 252, pages 1075 to 1114. Figures are shown for each of the years, 1917, 1921, 1923, and 1925 for the total numbers of employees of each sex in each department in Table 1, pages 3 to 41. All departments are not found in every plant, nor are both sexes, as will be seen, for example, in reading the 1925 figures in Table 1, page 7, for “ Total males” and for “ Total females” in the cattlekilling department. Data for that department and year are for 4,261 males of 72 plants and for only 25 females of 4 plants. A total of 86 plants were covered in the 1925 study, but 14 of them did no cattle killing. The “ Grand total,” Table 1, page 41, shows 1925 data for 52,702 males of 86 plants and for 6,595 females of 78 plants. BASIC OR REGULAR FULL-TIME HOURS PER DAY AND WEEK The basic or regular full-time hours per day and per week of each of the meat-packmg plants for which data are presented in this report are the regular hours of operation when the plant is working its recognized standard of full-time hours—that is, the usual time of beginning work in the morning on each day of the week and of closing in the afternoon less the regular time off duty for the midday lunch or dinner. The hours per day and per week may be the same even though there is a difference in the time of beginning and quitting work. The hours of different plants may and often do differ on account of difference in time of beginning and quitting work, of amount of time taken at noon for the midday meal, of a short work day on Saturday or other week day, and at times on account of other causes. Basic or regular 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 the pay-roll period covered. Some employees of an occupation may have worked more than full time, due to overtime, 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 of termina2059°— 27-------i 46 SIAUGHTERING AND MEAT PACKING INDUSTRY tion of service before the end of the pay-roll period covered or of having entered service after the beginning of the period. In the 1917 study it was found that while each of the 83 plants (1917 data are presented in this bulletin for 66 plants; see Bulletin 294, p. 3) covered in that year had what was then called regular working hours per day and per week, in actual practice their hours of work at that time varied so much from day to day and from week to week that average hours were not computed for any city, district, State, or occupation. Table 3 shows basic or regular full-time hours per day and per week for each of the 83 plants covered in 1917, of the 34 in 1921, of the 38 in 1923, and for each of the 86 covered in 1925. Line 1 of the table shows that the basic or regular full-time hours of 1 of the 83 plants covered in 1917 were 9 on 5 days per week and b }/2 on 1 day or 503^ per week; that the hours of 4 plants were 10 on 5 days and 5 on 1 day or 55 per week, and that the hours of 73, or 88 per cent, of the 83 plants covered in 1917 were 10 on 6 days or 60 hours per week. The hours of the other 5 plants covered in that year were 53, 56, 5 6 5 7 , and 573^ per week, respectively. Line 2 shows that the hours of 29, or 85 per cent, of the 34 plants covered in 1921 were 8 on 6 days, or 48 per week, with only 2 plants at lO hours on 6 days, or 60 per week. Line 3 shows that the hours of 15, or 39 per cent, of the 38 plants covered in 1923 were 8 per day or 48 per week, and that the hours of 16, or 42 per cent, were 9 per day or 54 per week, thus showing an increase in the hours of some plants between 1921 and 1923 from 8 per day or 48 per week to 9 per day or 54 per week. Line 4 reports the 1925 hours of 1 plant at 8 on 5 days and 4 on 1 day or 44 per week, of 2 at 8 on 5 days and 5 on 1 day or 45 per week, of 40, or 47 per cent, of the 86 covered in that year at 8 on 6 days or 48 per week, of 3 at 9 on 5 days and 5 on 1 day or 50 per week, of 1 at §3^ on 5 days and 53^ on 1 day or 53 per week, of 18 at 9 on 6 days or 54 per week, of 5 at 10 on 5 days and 4 on 1 day or 54 per week, of 6 at 10 on 5 days and 5 on 1 day or 55 per week, and of 10 plants at 10 hours per day on 6 days or 60 hours per week. The weighted basic or regular full-time hours per week for all males, for all females, and for both sexes combined are shown at the end of Table 1, page 41. Average basic or regular full-time hours per week and average hours actually worked in one week as of 1925 are showTn in parallel columns in Table A, pages 55 to 118. The average in one column shows the basic or regular full-time hours of work, while the average in the other column shows the hours actually worked in one week. 47 OVERTIME RATES AND GUARANTEED HOURS T able 3 .—BASIC OR REG U LAR FU LL-TIM E HOURS OF O PERATION OF PLANTS ON 5 DAYS, ON 1 D A Y , AN D PER W EEK, 1917, 1921, 1923, AND 1925 Num ber of plants Hours: Year in On 5 days cluded in On 1 day. study Per week. 1917... 1921... 1923. 1925..

HOURS, OVERTIME RATES, AND GUARANTEED HOURS OF PAY Overtime.—Table 4 shows the basic or regular hours of operation per day and per week for each of the plants covered in 1925, the num ber of plants that pay for overtime or work in excess of the regular hours of operation per day or per week at the regular rate, the num ber of plants that pay for overtime at one and one-half times the regular rate, and also the number of plants that pay one and one-half times the regular rate after a specified number of hours per day or per week. Reading from the table, in explanation of “ one and onehalf times the regular rate after” a specified number of hours per day or week, it is seen that the regular hours of 40 plants are 8 per day and 48 per week and that 1% of these plants do not pay for overtime at one and one-half times the regular rate until after 10 hours of work on any one day or 54 hours per week, which means that an employee whose regular rate is 50 cents per hour would be paid for the first 10 hours of work on any one day at 50 cents per hour and for any and all work in excess of the 10 hours at 75 cents per hour; and also that should an employee work more than 54 hours and not over 10 hours in any one day, he would be paid for the first 54 hours at 50 cents per hour and for the time in excess of 54 hours at 75 cents per hour. Of the 86 plants covered, 34 pay for overtime at the regular rate; 14 pay for overtime at one and one-half times the regular rate; 4 with regular hours of 8 per day and 48 per week pay one and one-half times the regular rate after 10 hours on any one day or 48 per week; 22 pay one and one-half times the regular rate after 10 hours on any one day or 54 per week; 10 pay one and onehalf times the regular rate after 10 hours on any one day or 55 hours per week; 1 with hours of 9 per day or 54 per week pays one and one-half times the regular rate after 50 hours per week; and 1 with regular hours of 8 per day and 48 per week pays one and one-half times the regular rate after 52 hours per week. Work on Sunday and holidays.—The table also shows that provi sion is made for payment for work on Sunday and holidays at the regular rate by 33 plants, at one and one-half times the regular rate by 32 plants, and at two times the regular rate by 21 plants. 48 SLAUGHTERING AND MEAT PACKING INDUSTRY In this industry work on Sunday and holidays is not frequent, especially on holidays, and is limited to a very small per cent of the employees of a plant and usually only to a very few mechanics in the maintenance and repair department, who repair equipment and buildings. Guaranteed hours of pay.—In addition to data as to overtime and work on Sunday and holidays the table shows also that 31 of the 86 plants covered in 1925 do not guarantee any hours of pay per day or per week to any of their employees; that 51 plants guarantee 40 hours of pay per week, the guaranty in these plants being to all employees in all departments of %8 plants and to the employees of certain specified departments of the other 8 plants; and that 4 plants guarantee hours of pay other than 40 per week, the guaranty being 48 hours of pay to 4 hog butchers of 1 plant, 45 hours of pay to 8 cattle butchers of 1 plant, 30 hours of pay to the employees in the killing, cutting, hide, and offal departments of 1 plant, 40 hours of pay to all em ployees except in the refining department of 1 plant, and 57% hours of pay to 5 cattle butchers of 1 plant. A very few of the plants listed above at a guaranty of 40 hours of pay per week to all employ ees really guarantee that amount to all except luggers, the luggers in these plants being guaranteed 44 hours of pay per week. A small per cent of the plants that guarantee 40 hours of pay per week pay for 6% hours for each day that the employee reports for duty and does any work. The guaranteed hours of pay assures to the employees pay at their regular rate for the specified number of guaranteed hours of pay whenever the hours of work available are less than the guaranteed hours of pay. To be entitled to pay it is necessary for the employee to report for duty and work all the hours of operation on each day or in each week.

CO 50 SLAUGHTERING AND MEAT PACKING INDUSTRY WAGE REDUCTIONS AND INCREASES, 1921-1925 Numerous changes have been made in wage rates between the studies of the industry in April, 1917, and in the latter part of 1925. The peak in wage rates was reached in 1920, in which year some reductions in wage rates were made by some plants, followed by re ductions in 1921 by other plants prior to the study in April, 1921. Between April 1, 1921, and the winter of 1923 there was a general reduction of wages, followed later by an increase. Practically all plants that were covered in 1923 reduced the wages of employees who were paid hourly rates and piece rates. Those paid weekly rates were not reduced. The reduction varied in amount. A few plants made a straight reduction of 5, 10, or 13 per cent, while approximately 20, employing a very great majority of the employees covered in the 1923 study, reduced skilled labor 3 cents per hour, semiskilled 5 cents per hour, unskilled labor 7J^ cents per hour, and piece rates were reduced 8 per cent. These reductions were followed by increases. Establishments that made percentage reductions made increases restoring the April, 1921, rates, while the establishments that cut hourly rates made an increase of 3 cents per hour in rates of skilled labor, 4 cents per hour for semiskilled, and an increase of 5 cents per hour in rates of unskilled labor. The net result was a reduction in 1923 as compared with 1921 in the industry as a whole. The 1923 figures for the 13 departments show an average wage-rate reduction in each department. A study of the occupational figures in Table 1 shows a reduction in a great majority of the occupations. Only three plants covered in the 1925 study reported general wage changes since the 1923 study. A very few plants reported individual wage changes between the 1923 and the 1925 studies. The average rate of wages per hour for the 59,297 employees covered in 1925 is 48.3 cents, as compared with 47.2 cents for the 51,195 covered in 1923, showing an increase of 1.1 cents per hour in 1925 over 1923. DAYS ON WHICH EMPLOYEES WORKED Table 5 shows for 24 representative occupations for males and 7 for females of 9 departments average and specified number of days worked by all employees in each of the occupations in one week. Any part of a calendar day on which an employee worked is counted a day. The average number of days worked by employees is a simple average obtained by dividing the aggregate number of days worked by the total number of employees in the occupation. Reading line 1, in explanation of the table, it is seen that the 51 establishments employed 120 headers; that they worked an average of 5.5 days in the week covered; also that 1 worked on 1 day, 1 on 2 days, 4 on 3 days, 6 on 4 days, 27 on 5 days, 80 on 6 days, and that 1 worked on 7 days. All of the 51 plants were in operation 6 days dur ing the week covered. The employees who worked less than 6 days lost time on account of sickness, or other disability, absence of own accord, or of entering service after the beginning or of leaving service before the end of the week covered by the study. The employee who is shown as having worked on 7 days evidently did some work on Sunday at another occupation. 51 DAYS ON WHICH EMPLOYEES WORKED T 5 . — AVE R AG E AN D SPECIFIED N U M B E R OF DAYS A C TU A L L Y W O R K E D IN 31 T Y P IC A L OCCUPATIONS B Y IN D IV ID U A L EM PLOYEES IN ONE W EEK, 1925, B Y D E P A R T M E N T , OCCUPATION, A N D SEX able Department and occupation Cattle-killing: Headers____________________________ Leg breakers- ______ __ ____ _________ Floormen or siders..................................
