Selected Metropolitan Areas, 1972—73

Introduction

Occupational earnings data fo r 95 metropolitan areas are provided in tables A - 1 through A - 11. The tables present average (mean) stra ight-t im e earnings of selected o ff ice c le r ica l, professional and technical, maintenance and powerplant, and custodial and m ater ia l movement occupations. Earnings data are reported for: (1) All industries combined, (2) manufacturing, (3) nonmanufacturing, and (4) separately for public utilit ies, except for professional and technical occupations fo r which data w ere insufficient to warrant presentation.

Fo llow ing table A - 11 are three tables on wage changes and indexes fo r four occupational groups— off ice c le r ica l , industrial nurses, skilled maintenance, and unskilled plant w orkers . Table A - 12 provides percent changes in average earnings for the 1-year period 1972-73; table A - 13, 1973 indexes of average earnings (1967=100); and table A - 14, average annual rates of increase in earnings for the period 1961-73.

The B- ser ies tables provide information on establishment practices and supplementary wage provisions fo r o ff ice w orkers and plant w orkers in 29 metropolitan areas in 1972-73. Table B - 1 shows the percent o f plant workers in manufacturing working on late shifts by type of shift pay d ifferentia l. The remaining B-tables show data fo r scheduled week ly hours and days; paid holidays; paid vacations; and health, insurance, and pension plans.

There are two appendixes to this bulletin. Appendix A descr ibes the methods and concepts used in the area wage survey program and provides information on the scope o f the individual studies. The four tables in appendix A show ( l ) number of workers employed in the six m a jor industry divisions studied, (2) important manufacturing industries in the area, (3) percent o f workers in key nonmanufacturing industries, and (4) extent of labor-management coverage. Appendix B provides job descriptions used by Bureau field economists to c lass i fy workers in occupations for which straight- time earnings information is presented.

Appendix A table 1. Scope of surveys— Continued

1 Consists of Standard Metropolitan Statistical Areas (SMSA) as defined by the Office o f Management and Budget through November 1971. The following studies relate to 2 SMSA's combined: FortLauderdale—Hollywood and West Palm Beach; Los Angelee—Long Beach and Anaheim—Santa Ana—Garden Grove; Midland and Odessa; Newark and Jersey City; New York and Nassau—Suffolk; and Norfolk— V irgin ia Beach—Portsmouth and Newport News—Hampton. The Lexington, Ky. study includes Madison County in addition to the SMSA (Fayette County), and the Poughkeepsie—Kingston—Newburgh, N.Y. study includes Orange, Putnam, and Ulster Counties in addition to the SMSA (Dutchess County). The Binghamton, N.Y. study was lim ited to the New York portion of the SMSA (Broome and Tioga Counties).

2 Totals include executive, professional, and other workers excluded from the separate plant and office categories. The estimates shown in this table provide a reasonably accurate description of the size and composition of the labor force included in the survey. The estimates are not intended, however, to serve as a basis o f comparison with other employment indexes for the area to measure employment trends or levels since (1) planning o f wage surveys requires the use of establishment data compiled considerably in advance of the payroll period studied, and (2) small establishments are excluded from the scope of the survey.

3 Includes data for 5 broad nonmanufacturing industry groups shown separately.4 Transportation, communication, and other public utilities. Excludes taxicabs and services incidental to water transportation. Municipally operated establishments are excluded, by definition,

from the scope of the survey. A ll or major local-transit operations in Akron, Albany—Schenectady—T roy , Albuquerque, Atlanta, Baltimore, Binghamton, Boston, Chicago, Cleveland, Dallas, Detroit, Kansas City, Los Angeles—Long Beach and Anaheim-Santa Ana—Garden Grove, Miami, New York and Nassau-Suffolk, Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, Portland, Oreg.—Wash., Riverside^San Bernardino-Ontario, Rochester, San Antonio, San Diego, San Francis co-Oakland, Savannah, Seattle-Everett, South Bend, Tampa—St. Petersburg, Utica-Rome, Washington, and Wichita were municipally operated; as were electric utility operations in Birmingham (supplying less than half of the electric ity consumed), Chattanooga, Cleveland (supplying less than half of the e lectric ity consumed), Jacksonville, Los Angeles—Long Beach and Anaheim-Santa Ana^Garden Grove, Phoenix (supplying less than half of the electricity consumed), and Seattle-Everett; e lectric and gas operations in Huntsville, Memphis, Omaha, and San Antonio; and gas operations in Indianapolis and Richmond.

5 Finance, insurance, and real estate. Workers from the entire division are represented in the A tables. Plant workers in finance and insurance are not included in estimates for plant workers in the scope table nor in the B tables. Data for plant workers in real estate, however, are included in "a ll industries" and "nonmanufacturing" estimates.

6 Hotels and motels; laundries and other personal services; business services; automobile repair, rental, and parking; motion pictures; nonprofit membership organizations (excluding religious and charitable organizations); and engineering and architectural services.

7 This industry division is represented in estimates for "a ll industries" and "nonmanufacturing" in the A tables, and for "a ll industries, " where presented, in the B tables. (Some surveys are lim ited to occupational earnings. See footnote 8.) Separate presentation of data for this division is not made for one or more o f the following reasons: (1) Employment in the division is too small to provide enough data to m erit separate study, (2) the sample was not designed in itially to permit separate presentation, (3) response was insufficient or inadequate to permit separate presentation, and (4) there is possibility of disclosure of individual establishment data.

8 Survey lim ited to occupational earnings; separate plant and office employment totals were not compiled. The most recent plant and office employments can be found in appendix table 1 o f BLS Bulletin 1725-95 or in the appendix A table of BLS Bulletin 1685-91. Dashes indicate that coverage was sufficient to justify separate presentation of data in the A tables of this bulletin and/or the individual area bulletins.

9 Minimum-size establishment in employment was 50 workers in the wholesale trade, finance, and services industry groups; and 100 workers in the manufacturing, public utilities, and retail trade groups.

1 Data for crude petroleum and natural gas are excluded in all areas except Midland and Odessa and Oklahoma City, where they are included in "a ll industries" and "nonmanufacturing."

N O T E : The 1967 ed ition o f the Standard Industria l C la ss ifica tion Manual was used to c la s s ify estab lishm ents by industry d iv is ion .

1 A ll other plant workers and office workers were employed in establishments that either did not have labor-management contracts, or had contracts that applied to fewer than half of their plant w.orkers or office workers. Estimates do not necessarily represent the extent to which all workers in the area may be covered by labor-management agreements because of the exclusion of small size establishments. Data are lim ited to establishments with 50 employees or more except in the 12 largest areas where the minimum size adopted was 100 employees in manufacturing, public utilities, and retail trade. See appendix A, table 1, for further explanation of the scope of the surveys.

2 "A ll industries" includes data for divisions not shown separately in addition to divisions shown separately.3 Transportation, communication, and other public utilities. Excludes taxicabs, services incidental to water transportation, and municipally operated establishments.4 Data for this division are not presented separately because of one or more of the reasons mentioned in footnote 7 to table 1 of appendix A. Data fo r this division, however, are included in

"a ll industries."


Appendix B. Occupational Descriptions

The prim ary purpose of preparing job descriptions for the Bureau's wage surveys is to assist its field staff in classifying into appropriate occupations workers who are employed under a variety o f payroll titles and different work arrangements from establishment to establishment and from area to area. This permits the grouping of occupational wage rates representing comparable job content. Because of this emphasis on interestablishment and interarea comparability o f occupational content, the Bureau's job descriptions may differ significantly from those in use in individual establishments or those prepared for other purposes. In applying these job descriptions, the Bureau's field economists are instructed to exclude working supervisors; apprentices; learners; beginners; trainees; and handicapped, part-tim e, temporary, and probationary workers.

Working from charts or diagrams, the programmer develops the precise instructions which, when entered into the computer system in coded language, cause the manipulation


111

COM PUTER PROGRAMMER, BUSINESS— Continuedof data to achieve desired results. Work involves most of the following: Applies knowledge ofcomputer capabilities, mathematics, logic employed by computers, and particular subject matter involved to analyze charts and diagrams of the problem to be programmed; develops sequence of program steps; writes detailed flow charts to show order in which data w ill be processed; converts these charts to coded instructions fo r machine to follow; tests and corrects programs; prepares instructions fo r operating personnel during production run; analyzes, reviews, and alters programs to increase operating efficiency or adapt to new requirements; maintains records of program development and revisions. (NOTE: W orkers perform ing both systems analysis and programming should be classified as systems analysts if this is the skill used to determine their pay.)

Does not include employees prim arily responsible for the management or supervision of other electronic data processing employees, or programm ers prim arily concerned with scientific and/or engineering problems.

For wage study purposes, programm ers are classified as follows:

Class A. Works independently or under only general direction on complex problems which require competence in a ll phases of programming concepts and practices. Working from diagrams and charts which identify the nature of desired results, major processing steps to be accomplished, and the relationships between various steps of the problem solving routine; plans the full range of programming actions needed to efficiently utilize the computer system in achieving desired end products.

At this leve l, programming is difficult because computer equipment must be organized to produce severa l interrelated but diverse products from numerous and diverse data elements. A wide variety and extensive number of internal processing actions must occur. This requires such actions as development of common operations which can be reused, establishment of linkage points between operations, adjustments to data when program requirements exceed computer storage capacity, and substantial manipulation and resequencing of data elements to form a highly integrated program.

May provide functional direction to lower leve l programmers who are assigned to assist.

Class B . Works independently or under only general direction on relatively simple programs, or on simple segments of complex programs. Programs (or segments) usually process information to produce data in two or three varied sequences or formats. Reports and listings are produced by refining, adapting, arraying, or making minor additions to or deletions from input data which are readily available. While numerous records may be processed, the data have been refined in prior actions so that the accuracy and sequencing of data can be tested by using a few routine checks.
