D uringthe past severa l yea rs , the Bureau of Labor S tatistics has conducted areaw ide surveys of earnings in m a jor occupations that are com m on to variou s m anufacturing and nonm anufacturing in d u s tr ie s .1 In form ation is a lso com piled on weekly w ork schedules and supplem entary wage p ra c t ice s . Seventeen m a jor labor m arkets w ere se lected fo r study during late 1953 and early 1954. In form ation on six o f these a rea s is presented in this bulletin (Part III). The a rea s included in each part are lis ted below :

In each area , data are obtained by person al v is its o f Bureau fie ld agents to rep resen ta tive establishm ents within six broad industry d iv is ion s : M anufacturing; transportation (excluding ra ilroad s),com m unication , and other public u tilities ; w holesale trade; retail trade; finance, in su ran ce , and real estate; and s e rv ice s .

Occupational Earnings

Occupational c la ss ifica tion is based on a uniform set of job d escrip tion s designed to take account o f interestablishm ent variation in duties within the sam e job (see Appendix for listing of these d escrip tion s). Earnings data are presented for the follow ing types o f occupations; (a) O ffice c le r ica l ; (b) p ro fession a l and tech n ical; (c) m aintenance and pow erplant; and (d) custodial and m aterial m ovem ent.

Data are shown for fu ll-tim e w ork ers , i. e . , those h ired to w ork a fu ll-tim e schedule fo r the given occupational c la ssifica tion . Earnings data exclude prem ium pay for overtim e and nightwork. N onproduction bonuses are a lso excluded, but co s t -o f-liv in g bonuses and incentive earnings are included. W here weekly hours are reported , as fo r o ffice c le r ica l occupations, re feren ce is to the w ork schedule (rounded to the nearest h a lf-h ou r) for which straight- tim e sa laries are paid; average weekly earnings for these occu pations have been rounded to the n earest 50 cents.

O ccupational em ploym ent estim ates re fer to the total in all establishm ents within the scope o f the study and not to the number actually surveyed. B ecause of the great variation in occupational structure am ong establishm ents, estim ates o f occupational em ployment are subject to con siderab le fluctuation due to sam pling. Hence, they serve only to indicate the re la tive num erica l im portance of the job studied. The fluctuations in em ploym ent do not m aterially a ffect the a ccu ra cy o f the earnings data.

E stablishm ent P ra c tice s and Supplem entary Wage P rov ision s

Inform ation is a lso presented on w ork schedules, wage structure ch a ra cte r is t ics , labor-m anagem ent agreem ent coverage, and se lected supplem entary benefits as they relate to o ffice and plant w ork ers . The term , o ffice w o rk e rs ", as used in this bulletin includes a ll o ffice c le r ica l em ployees and excludes adm inistrative, executive, p ro fess ion a l, and techn ica l person n el. "P lant w ork ers" include w orking forem en and all n on su perv isory w orkers (including leadm en and tram ees) engaged in nonoffice functions. A dm in istra tive , executive, p ro fess ion a l, and techn ica l em ployees, and fo rce account construction em ployees who are u tilized as a separate work fo r c e are excluded. C afeteria w ork ers and routem en are excluded in m anufacturing industries but are included as plant w orkers in nonmanufacturing indu stries.


With re fe ren ce to wage structure ch a ra cter is tics (table B -8), all tim e-rated w ork ers (plant or o ffice ) in an establishm ent are c la ss ified a ccord in g to the predom inant plan applying to these w ork ers . W hereas the proportion s of tim e and incentive w orkers d irectly re fle ct em ploym ent Tinder each pay system , techn ica l con siderations requ ired that the breakdown o f in cen tive -w ork er em p loy ment accord ing to typp of incentive plan be based on the predom inant plan in each establishm ent.

S h ift-d ifferen tia l data are lim ited to m anufacturing industr ie s . This in form ation is presented both in term s of (a) estab lishm ent p o l ic y 4 and (b) e ffective p rov is ion s fo r w orkers actually em ployed on extra shifts at the tim e of the survey. Tabulations relating to establishm ent p o licy are presented in term s of total plant w orker em ploym ent; estim ates in the second tabulation relate only to those w orkers actually em ployed on the sp ecified shift.

Supplem entary benefits, other than shift d ifferen tia ls , a re treated statistica lly on the basis that these are provided to all w orkers em ployed in o ffice s or plant departm ents that ob serve the p ra ctice in q u estion .5 B ecause o f varying e lig ib ility re q u ire m ents, the prop ortion actually rece iv in g the sp ec ific benefits may be sm aller . Sums o f individual item s in S eries B tables do not n ecessa r ily equal tota ls because of rounding.

The sum m ary of vacation plans is lim ited to form a l a rra n ge m ents, excluding in form al plans w hereby tim e o ff with pay is granted at the d iscre tion o f the em ployer or the su perv isor . Separate estim ates are p rovided a ccord in g to em ployer p ra ctice in com puting vacation paym ents, such as tim e paym ents, percent o f annual earn ings, or fla t-su m am ounts.

4 An establishm ent was con sidered as having a p o licy if itmet either o f the follow ing conditions: ( l ) O perated late shifts atthe tim e of the survey, or (2) had form a l p rov is ion s coverin g late shifts.

5 Scheduled w eekly hours fo r o ffice w ork ers (first section of table B -2 ) are p resen ted in term s of the p rop ortion of w om en o ffice w orkers em ployed in o ffice s with the indicated w eekly hours fo r wom en w ork ers .


Data are presented fo r a ll health, insu ran ce, and pension plans fo r which at least a part of the cos t is born e by the em p loyer, excepting only legal requirem ents such as w orkm en 1 s com pensation and soc ia l secu rity . Such plans include those underw ritten by a com m erc ia l insurance com pany and a lso those p rov id ed through a union fund or paid d irectly by the em p loyer out o f current operating funds or from a fund set aside fo r this p u rp ose .

Death benefits are included as a fo rm o f life insu ran ce . Sickness and accident insurance is lim ited to that type o f insurance under which predeterm ined cash paym ents are m ade d ire ct ly to the insured on a weekly or monthly b as is during illn ess or a ccid en t d isab ility . Inform ation is presen ted fo r a ll such plans to which the em ployer contributes, except in those States having com pu lsory tem porary d isability insurance law s; plans in these States a re included only if the em ployer ( l ) contributes m ore than is lega lly requ ired or (2) p rov ides the em ployee with benefits w hich exceed the requirem ents of the law.

Tabulations of paid sick leave p lans a re lim ited to fo rm a l plans which provide full pay or a p rop ortion o f the w o rk e r1 s pay during absence fro m w ork due to illn e ss ; in form al arrangem ents have been om itted. Separate tabulations are p rov id ed a ccord in g to ( l) plans which provide full pay and no waiting p eriod , and \2 ) plans providing either partia l pay or a waiting p e r io d .

Catastrophe insurance, som etim es r e fe r re d to as extended m edica l insurance, includes those plans w hich are designed to co v e r em ployees in case of s ickness and in jury involving an expense which goes beyond the norm al cov era ge o f h osp ita liza tion , m ed ica l, and su rg ica l plans.

A T L A N T A ,

The Atlanta m etropolitan area is an expanding cen ter of m anufacturing in d u stries , ch ie f of which are a ircra ft , m otor veh ic le s , and other m etalw orking; food and kindred produ cts; textiles; and apparel. It is a lso a center o f trade and finance with substantial num bers o f w ork ers em ployed in w holesale and retail trade estab lish m en ts, banks, and other financial institutions. This year*s annual study is based upon data from 188 establishm ents em ploying m ore than 9 1 ,000 w ork ers selected to represen t 656 estab lish m ents em ploying about 143, 000 w orkers in 6 m a jor industry groupin g s. (See table fo llo w in g .)

Wage Structure

M ost plant (nonoffice) w orkers in the Atlanta area w ere paid on the b a s is o f tim e rates, as distinguished fro m incentive m ethods o f pay. F o r every 4 w orkers on tim e m ethods, 1 w orked on an incentive b a s is . T im e-ra ted w orkers com p rised m ore than th ree -fou rth s o f the w ork ers in manufacturing and retail trade, and m ore than n ine-tenths in public u tilities and w holesa le trade.

M ost t im e -ra te d plant w orkers w ere em ployed in f irm s that had a fo rm a lly determ in ed rate or range of rates fo r each job c la s s ifica tion . A sixth w ere em ployed in firm s which determ ined rates on the basis o f the in d iv id u a ls personal qualifications. W orkers under ra n g e -o f-ra te system s outnumbered those under s in g le -ra te system s in the ra tio o f 3 to 2. F orm al rate structures cov ered th ree -fou rth s o f the o ffice w orkers , and in n early a ll ca ses p r o vided a range o f ra tes fo r each job category.

R ela tive ly few firm s had rate structures which included p rov is ion s fo r c la ss ify in g job s into a series o f labor grades. Of 188 firm s studied, la b o r -g ra d e system s covered o ffice job s in 15 f ir m s , and plant jo b s in 8. Am ong the establishm ents reporting la b o r -g ra d e system s w ere 3 in m anufacturing, 2 in the public u tilit ie s industry group, 6 in trade, and 5 in the finance and insurance industrie s .

O ccupational Pay L ev e ls

W eekly sa la r ies o f wom en se cre ta r ie s , general stenograp h ers, and routine copy typists averaged $64 , $55 , and $43, re sp e ctiv e ly , in M arch 1954, as com pared with average sa laries o f $ 6 2 .5 0 , $53 , and $ 4 0 .5 0 reported fo r these w ork ers in the B ureau1 s survey o f M arch 1953. M ost of the other o ffice occu pa tions studied showed earnings in crea ses of fro m $1 to $ 2 .5 0 a w eek during this p e r io d .

S tra igh t-tim e average hourly earnings fo r the skilled m ain tenance jo b s ranged fro m $1.65 fo r autom otive m echan ics, n um erica lly the m ost im portant job studied, to $ 2 .2 9 fo r sheet-m etal

w ork ers . C arpen ters, m echan ics (oth er than autom otive), and pain ters averaged about $ 1 . 9 0 , m ach inists $2 . 05 , and e lectr ic ian s and p ip efitters fro m $ 2 . 1 6 to $ 2 . 1 8 an hour. Hourly pay leve ls in M arch 1954 w ere fro m 7 to 12 cents h igher than a year ea rlier fo r the jo b s nam ed other than auto m echan ics (up 5 cents) and sheet- m etal w ork ers (up 16 cents). M aintenance trades helpers averaged $ 1 . 4 6 , up 11 cents an hour fro m M arch 1953.

A verage hourly earnings fo r n u m erica lly im portant custodial and m ateria l-m ovem en t job s studied w ere: 73 cents for ja n itresses ,$ 1 . 0 4 fo r ja n itors , $ 1 . 1 3 fo r m ate ria l-handling la b orers , $1 . 23 fo r d riv ers o f m ed iu m -s ize trucks and fo r men shipping packers, and $ 1 . 3 3 fo r fo rk lift op era tors . Pay lev e ls for m ost of these and other ca tegor ies in these w ork fie ld s w ere from 3 to 7 cents an hour higher than in M arch 1953.

Am ong the o ffice job s studied, average weekly earnings w ere higher in m anufacturing than in nonmanufacturing industries fo r s im ilar jo b s . H ow ever, approxim ately as many of the plant job averages w ere h igher in nonm anufacturing as w ere higher in m anufacturing. The greatest earnings d ifferen ces in favor of the m anufacturing industries o ccu rre d in the stationary engineer, painter, and ja n itor and ja n itress jo b s . In nonm anufacturing, maintenance e le ctr ic ia n s , m aintenance m echan ics, and d rivers o f m ed iu m -size trucks had the greatest earnings d ifferentia l over sim ilar job s in m anufacturing. A verage earnings le v e ls varied among the individual nonm anufacturing industry d iv is ion s. The public utilities group generally had the highest job averages am ong the nonmanufacturing industries and, fo r severa l o ffice and plant job s , had higher pay lev e ls than in m anufacturing.

C o st -o f-L iv in g and Annual Im provem ent Adjustm ents

P e r io d ic wage adjustm ents related to the m ovem ent of con sum er p r ice s w ere provided fo r in 4 o f the 188 establishm ents v isited by the B ureau 's fie ld agents. These p rov is ion s w ere app lica b le to the wages o f plant w ork ers in all 4 firm s , and to o ffice w ork ers in 3. O f the 4 f irm s , 2 in m anufacturing (m otor-veh icle ) a lso had p rov is ion s fo r annual im provem ent (productivity) adjustm ents applicable to both the plant and o ffice w orkers .

Slightly few er than half the plant w ork ers in the surveyed industry and estab lish m en t-s ize c la ss e s w ere em ployed in firm s having labor-m anagem ent agreem ents coverin g a m ajority o f their plant w ork ers . H ighest p rop ortion s o f p lan t-w orker coverage w ere found in public u tilities and m anufacturing. A fifth o f the o ffice w ork ers w ere em ployed in firm s having agreem ents covering a m ajo r ity o f the o ffice w ork ers . Slightly few er than a half o f the o ffice w ork ers in public u tilities and m anufacturing we-re so covered .


4W ork Schedules

About seven-tenths o f the o ffice and plant w ork ers in Atlanta w ere scheduled to w ork a 40-hour week in M arch 1954. M ost of the rem aining o ffice w orkers w ere scheduled to w ork l ess than 40 hours; in public u tilities and finance, seven-tenths and a third, resp ective ly , w orked le s s than 40 hours. M ost o f the rem aining plant w orkers w orked m ore than 40 hours; in public u tilities and retail trade a fifth o f the plant w orkers w ere on schedules o f 48 hours and a sm aller p roportion w ere on longer schedules.

O vertim e Pay

N early a ll o ffice w orkers and seven -eighths o f the plant w orkers w ere em ployed in firm s which provided prem ium pay to these w orkers fo r w ork p erform ed in e x ce ss o f regu lar w eekly w ork schedules. Such prem ium s w ere a lm ost always in the amount of tim e and a half fo r w ork beyond 40 hours in the w orkw eek. E m p loyers of half the plant w orkers and of a third o f the o ffice w orkers provided prem ium rates after a specified num ber o f hours w orked p er day. T yp ica lly , tim e and a half was provided fo r w ork in 'ex cess of 8 hours a day.

Shift O perations

A fifth o f the plant labor fo r c e in Atlanta m anufacturing industries w ere em ployed on extra shifts in M arch 1954. T h ree - fourths o f the w orkers on the second shift and half o f those on the third shift w ere paid a prem ium over d ay -sh ift ra tes . S econ d -sh ift w ork ers , outnumbering th ird -sh ift w ork ers by 4 to 1, m ost c o m m only rece ived a d ifferentia l o f 8 cents an hour.

Paid H olidays

N early a ll o ffice w ork ers and fu lly fo u r -fifth s o f the plant w orkers w ere in establishm ents w hich granted paid h olidays, usually 5 or 6 annually. Six paid holidays w ere re ce iv e d by a m a jority o f the o ffice w orkers in m anufacturing, public u tilities , and w holesa le trade. A fourth of the o ffice w ork ers in finance establishm ents rece iv ed from 8 to 10 holidays, but a half re ce iv e d 5 days as did the great m ajority of o ffice w ork ers in reta il trade. In only m anufacturing and public utilities did a m a jority o f plant w ork ers r e ce ive six or m ore paid holidays. About tw o-th ird s o f the plant and o ffice w orkers w ere em ployed in firm s having p ro v is io n s fo r p r e m ium pay fo r w ork p erform ed on paid h o lid ays. D ouble tim e, in cluding holiday pay, was the m ost com m on p ro v is io n applying to both groups.
