Preface

This report summarizes the results of a biennial survey of union wage rates and straight-time hours of work for grocery store employees, as provided in labor-management agreements. Similar information for specified crafts or jobs in the building construction, printing, local transit, and local trucking industries also is available from annual surveys conducted by the Bureau. These studies present wage rates in effect on July 1, as reported to the Bureau by the appropriate local labor organization officials in each of the surveyed cities.

The U.S. Census Bureau has introduced new job titles in its Occupational Classification System to eliminate those that denote sex stereotypes. For purposes of this bulletin, however, old titles have been retained where they refer specifically to contractual definitions. Where titles are used in the generic sense, and not to describe a contract term, they have been changed to eliminate the sex stereotype.

Preliminary listings of union wage rates and hours for grocery store employees in 70 cities were issued earlier. Copies of these are available from the Bureau of Labor Statistics, Washington, D.C. 20212, or from any of its regional offices listed on the inside back cover of this bulletin.

The study was conducted in the Bureau’s Office of Wages and Industrial Relations. Carl Barsky of the Division of Occupational Wage Structures prepared the analysis in this bulletin.

Grocery Stores, July 1, 1973Survey findings

Union wage rates for grocery store employees in cities of 100,000 inhabitants or more averaged $4.24 an hour on July 1, 1973— a rise of 16.4 percent since the first BLS survey of such rates was conducted 2 years earlier.1 Wage rates, which fell within a relatively broad range, were highest for workers in meat depart­ments and lowest for baggers at checkout counters. The gap, however, between meat workers and those in other departments narrowed somewhat between the two surveys. Wage rates for nearly all grocery store workers advanced during the 2-year period, with the middle range of the rate increases falling between 10 and 20 percent.

Wage rates for workers in meat departments averaged $4.98 an hour in July 1973, compared with $4.18 for grocery department employees. These averages, as well as occupational averages in the survey, were computed from only the “top” rates for each job provided by individual union agreements within the cities studied.

For jobs surveyed below the level of department heads, most union agreements provided for automatic step increases from an entry rate to a top rate in 2 to 3 years. For department heads, a single rate usually applied, but where more than one was given in an agreement, the rates were generally determined by the sales volume of the store rather than by automatic progression.

Head meatcutters, the highest paid occupation in most of the 70 cities studied, also had the highest average rate in the survey—$5.74 an hour. (See table 1.) Rates for other department heads were: Grocery, $5.11; produce, $4.96; dairy, $4.64; and checkout, $4.51. Among jobs below department-head level, averages ranged from $2.38 for baggers to $5.54 for first meat- cutters. Average wage rates for full-time cashiers and produce clerks were near the overall level of $4.24. Individual rates used in computing these averages were widely dispersed. (See table 2.)

Between July 1, 1971, and July 1, 1973, head dairy clerks recorded the largest increase of the occupa­tions studied— 21 Vi percent or 83 cents per hour. Baggers, on the other hand, had the smallest— 10.0 percent or 22 cents. Workers outside meat departments

generally recorded higher percentage gains than meat- workers. The average percentage gain for first meat- cutters was the second lowest in the survey (14.1); similarly, percent increases were smaller for both meat department heads (15.6) and journeyman meatcutters (16.0) than for at least 8 other jobs providing compari- sions. Cents-per-hour increases for the top-paid meat- workers, however, were among the highest in the survey.

Occupational wages in 1973, as measured by the top union rates in each city, tended to be lowest in the South and highest or nearly highest on the West Coast— a pattern noted in the 1971 grocery store study and frequently found in other union wage rate surveys conducted by the Bureau. For example, table 6 shows that top wage rates for full-time cashiers were highest in Fresno, Sacramento, and San Francisco ($5,265 per hour), while 6 of the 7 cities having top cashier rates of $3.50 or less were in the South. The lowest of these were in Jacksonville ($2,800) and Tampa ($2,803).

Grouped by population size, top rates in cities with500.000 inhabitants or more tended to be higher than those in smaller cities studied. The median top rate for full-time cashiers, for example, was $4,280 in the largest size group, compared with $3,800 in cities of250.000 to 500,000 inhabitants, and $3,989 in those with 100,000 to 250,000. Similar relationships held for baggers, full-time grocery clerks, and journeyman meatcutters. (See text table.) Population size, however, did not appear to be an important factor in determining wage rates. For each of the jobs shown in the text table, the median of top rates was higher in the smallest city- size category than in the middle population group.

Location of city and, perhaps, bargaining power among union locals seemed more important than city population in determining wage rate variations. When comparisons were limited to the same region, cities in the smallest population group sometimes had higher top rates than those in the larger size groups. Such

1 Percent and cents-per-hour changes since the last survey were calculated using comparable job quotations for the various job classifications weighted by 1973 membership. Thus, the 16.4-percent rise in grocery store wage rates was not obtained by comparing the 1971 and 1973 overall averages.

Based on the highest top union rate in each city surveyed.

observations are common in other union wage surveys conducted by the Bureau.

Occupational pay relationships varied widely by city. As shown in table 4, top rates for head meatcutters exceeded those for baggers by 76 percent in Washington, D.C., but by 209 percent in Chicago. Wage rate advan­tages for full-time grocery clerks over baggers were substantially less, ranging from 29 jterce;it in Washington to 134 percent in Chicago; full-time cashiers, produce clerks, and day-time stockers generally held wage advan­tages over baggers that were similar to those held by grocery clerks.

In many cities surveyed, several union agreements covered the same occupation, often with significantly different rates. (See table 3.) For example, the citywide spreads between the highest and lowest top rates for full-time cashiers, full-time grocery clerks, and head meatcutters commonly exceeded 10 percent. (See table 5.) Using only the highest rate provided by each union agreement within a city, the following tabulation illustrates the wide range of these “top” rates for full-time cashiers:

Virtually all workers in the survey were under union contracts providing for premium wage rates after 40 hours per week. Insurance, pension, and vacation plans were available to over 95 percent of the union workers.

Scope and method of study

Union wage information in the survey represents only the basic rates (excluding holiday, vacation, or other payments made directly to or credited to the worker each pay period) agreed upon through collective bar­gaining between employers and unions. It does not reflect rates for apprentices or premium pay for over­time or for work on weekends, holidays, or late shifts.

Weekly hours reflect the maximum number of straight- time hours before premium rates become effective.

The information presented was based on union rates in effect for grocery store employees on July 1, 1973. Average wage rates relate to top rates in effect at that time; to determine the average for a job, its top rate in each agreement was weighted by the total number of union members reported for the occupation under the agreement.

Occupational averages were not designed for precise year-to-year comparisons because of fluctuations in membership and in the classifications studied. Average cents-per-hour and percent changes from July 1,1971, to July 1, 1973, however, were based on comparable quotations for the various job classifications in both periods, weighted by the memberships reported for the current (1973) survey. “Average” wage rates were com­

puted for “all cities” combined but not for individual cities. A listing of union rates by occupation for each of the 70 cities surveyed is presented in table 6.

The current survey was designed to reflect union wage rates for grocery store employees in all 152 cities with 100,000 inhabitants or more (excluding Honolulu), based on the 1970 Census of Population. The 70 cities surveyed included all cities that had at least 500,000 inhabitants, most cities having 250,000 to 500,000 in­

habitants, and a proportionately smaller sample of cities having 100,000 to 250,000 inhabitants. The 70 cities in the survey were appropriately weighted to represent all cities of 100,000 inhabitants or more. The wage information reported applied directly to about261.000 union members in the 70 cities actually surveyed, who represented approximately seven-tenths of the366.000 members estimated to be within the scope of the study.

Average wage rates relate to top rates in effect July 1, 1973; in computing the averages, the top rate in each agreement was weighted by the total number of union members reported for the occupation. Increases were derived from 1971 and 1973 top rates reported in each agreement weighted by 1973 membership.

2 Part-time Stockers on day shifts and fu ll-tim e Stockers on

night shifts were included in the 1971 and 1973 surveys but are not shown separately. These jobs accounted fo r about 2Yz percent of the 366,000 union members within the scope of the 1973 survey. If these jobs were excluded, the overall grocery store average would have been $4 .26 but the 1971-73 change would be the same as shown.

1 Includes all cities with 100,000 inhabitants or more, except Honolulu. The 70 cities studied were appropriately weighted to represent all cities of this size, based on the 1970 Census. The 10 cities shown separately were among the largest population centers at that time.

NOTE: For the 10 cities shown separately, the pay relatives are based on the highest top rate among all union agreements covering each occupation w ithin a city. The "all cities" pay relatives, however, relate to averages of occupational rates computed by weighting each agreement's top rate by the total number of union members reported for the occupation. Dash indicates no data reported.

1 Where m ultiple contracts were reported in 1973, the agreement w ith the lowest and the one w ith the highest " to p ” rate were listed in each case, except where they were the same. Starting from the lowest " to p " rate, other agreements were selected at 20-cent intervals or more. O m itted were those agreements that duplicated a rate already shown or that had rates falling within 20 cents of the next lowest rate listed. For each trade, the total number o f agreements is indicated, except for those cases in which only one contract was reported w ith in the c ity .
