A n alternate of the s a m e original probability is c h o s e n in the s a m e industry-size classification if data are not available for the original s a m p l e m e m b e r . If n o suitable substitute is available, additional w e i g h t is a s s i g n e d to a s a m p l e m e m b e r that is similar to the m i s s i n g unit.

w o r k e r s m a y a d v a n c e to better jobs a n d b e r e p l a c e d b y n e w w o r k e r s at l o w e r rates. S u c h shifts in e m p l o y m e n t could d e c r e a s e a n occupational a v e r a g e e v e n t h o u g h m o s t establishments in an ar e a inc r e a s e w a g e s during the year. T r e n d s in ea r n i n g s of occupational groups, s h o w n in table A-7, are better indicators of w a g e t rends than individual jobs within the groups.

A v e r a g e ear n i n g s reflect c o m p o s i t e , a r e a w i d e estimates. Industries an d e s t a blishments differ in p a y level a n d job staffing, a n d thus contribute differently to the e s t i mates for e a c h job. P a y a v e r a g e s m a y fail to reflect accurately the w a g e differential a m o n g jobs in individual establishments.

A v e r a g e p a y levels for m e n a n d w o m e n in selected occupations should not b e a s s u m e d to reflect differences in p a y of the s e x e s within individual establishments. F a c t o r s w h i c h m a y contribute to differences include p r o g r e s s i o n within established rate ranges, since only the rates paid i n c u m b e n t s are collected, a n d p e r f o r m a n c e of specific duties within the g e n e r a l s u r v e y job descriptions. J o b descriptions u s e d to classify e m p l o y e e s in these s u r v e y s usually are m o r e generalized than those u s e d in individual e s t a b l i s h m e n t s a n d allow for m i n o r differences a m o n g e s t a blishments in specific duties p e r f o r m e d .

O c c u p a t i o n a l e m p l o y m e n t est i m a t e s r e p resent the total in all e s t a blishments within the scope of the study a n d not the n u m b e r actually surveyed. B e c a u s e occupational structures a m o n g establish­m e n t s differ, e s t i m a t e s of occupational e m p l o y m e n t obtained f r o m the s a m p l e of establishments studied s e r v e only to indicate the relative i m p o r t a n c e of the jobs studied. T h e s e differences in occupational structure do not affect m aterially the a c c u r a c y of the ear n i n g s data.

W a g e t rends for selected occupational g r o u p s

T h e p e r c e n t s of c h a n g e in table A - 7 relate to w a g e c h a n g e s b e t w e e n the indicated dates. A n n u a l rates of increase, w h e r e s h o w n , reflect the a m o u n t of i n c r e a s e for 12 m o n t h s w h e n the t i m e s p a n b e t w e e n s u r v e y s w a s other than 12 m o n t h s .

Administrative, executive, professional, a n d p a r t - t i m e e m p l o y e e s are excluded. P a r t - t i m e e m p l o y e e s are t hose hi r e d to w o r k a schedule calling regularly for f e w e r w e e k l y h o u r s than the establishment's s c h edule for full-time e m p l o y e e s in the s a m e g e n e r a l type of w o r k . T h e determination is b a s e d on the e m p l o y e r ' s distinction b e t w e e n the t w o g r o u p s w h i c h m a y take into account not only differences in w o r k s c h e dules but differences in p a y a n d benefits.

M i n i m u m e n t r a n c e salaries for office w o r k e r s relate only to the e s t a b l i s h m e n t s visited. (See table B-l.) B e c a u s e of the o p t i m u m s a m p l i n g techniques u s e d a n d the probability that large establishments ar e m o r e likely than s m a l l e s t a b l i s h m e n t s to h a v e f o r m a l ent r a n c e rates a b o v e the subclerical level, the table is m o r e representative of policies in m e d i u m a n d large establishments.

Shift differential data are limited to full-time plant w o r k e r s in m a n u f a c t u r i n g industries. (See table B-2.) T h i s i n f o r mation is p r e s e n t e d in t e r m s of (1) est a b l i s h m e n t policy 3 for total plant w o r k e r e m p l o y m e n t , a n d (2) effective practice for w o r k e r s e m p l o y e d on the specified shift at the t i m e of the survey. In e s t a b l i s h m e n t s ha v i n g va r i e d differentials, the a m o u n t applying to a m a j o r i t y is used. In establishments h aving s o m e late-shift h o u r s paid at n o r m a l rates, a differential is r e c o r d e d only if it applies to a m a j o r i t y of the shift hours. A s e c o n d (evening) shift e n d s w o r k at or n e a r midnight. A third (night) shift starts w o r k at o r n e a r midnight.

T h e s c h e d u l e d w e e k l y h o u r s a n d da y s of a m a j o r i t y of the first-shift w o r k e r s in an establish­m e n t are tabulated as applying to all full-time plant or office w o r k e r s of that establishment. (See table B-3.) S c h e d u l e d w e e k l y h o u r s an d da y s are those w h i c h a m a j o r i t y of full-time e m p l o y e e s are e x pected to w o r k for straight-time or o v e r t i m e rates.

Pa i d holidays; paid vacations; a n d health, insurance, a n d p e n s i o n plans are treated statistically as applying to all full-time plant or office w o r k e r s if a ma j o r i t y of s u c h w o r k e r s are eligible o r m a y eventually qualify for the practices listed. (See tables B - 4 t h r o u g h B-6.) S u m s of individual i t e m s in tables B - 2 t h r o u g h B - 5 m a y not equal totals b e c a u s e of rounding.

D a t a on paid holidays are limited to holidays g r a n t e d annually on a f o r m a l basis, w h i c h (1) are pro v i d e d for in written f o r m , o r (2) are established b y c u s t o m . (See table B-4.) Holidays ordinarily g r a n t e d are included e v e n t h o u g h they m a y fall on a n o n w o r k d a y a n d the w o r k e r is not g r anted another d a y off. T h e first part of the paid holidays table pre s e n t s the n u m b e r of w h o l e and half holidays actually granted. T h e s e c o n d part c o m b i n e s w h o l e an d half holidays to s h o w total holiday time. T a b l e B - 4 a reports the incidence of the m o s t c o m m o n paid holidays.

3 An establishment was considered as having a policy if it met either o f the following conditions: (1 ) Operated late shifts at the time o f thesurvey, or (2) had formal provisions covering late shifts. An establishment was considered as having formal provisions if it (1 ) had operated lateshifts during the 12 months before the survey, or (2) had provisions in written form to operate late shifts.

T h e s u m m a r y of vacation plans is a statistical m e a s u r e of vacation p rovisions r ather than a m e a s u r e of the proportion of full-time w o r k e r s actually receiving specific benefits. (See table B-5.) P r o v i s i o n s apply to all plant or office w o r k e r s in an e s t a b l i s h m e n t r e g a r d l e s s of length of service. P a y m e n t s on other than a t i m e basis ar e c o n v e r t e d to a t i m e period; for e x a m p l e , 2 p e r c e n t of an n u a l earnings are c o n s i d e r e d equivalent to 1 w e e k ' s pay. O n l y ba s i c p lans a r e included. E s t i m a t e s ex c l u d e vacation b o n u s e s , vacation-savings plans, a n d " e x t e n d e d " o r "sabbatical" benefits b e y o n d basic plans. S u c h provisions are typical in the steel, a l u m i n u m , a n d c a n industries.

Health, insurance, a n d pension plans for w h i c h the e m p l o y e r p a y s at least a part of the cost include those (1) underwritten b y a c o m m e r c i a l i n s u r a n c e c o m p a n y or nonprofit organization, (2) p r o v i d e d t h rough a union fund, or (3) paid directly b y the e m p l o y e r out of c u r r e n t operating funds or f r o m a fund set aside for this p u rpose. (See table B-6.) A n e s t a b l i s h m e n t is c o n s i d e r e d to h a v e s u c h a plan if the m a j o r i t y of e m p l o y e e s a r e c o v e r e d e v e n t h o u g h less than a m a j o r i t y participate u n d e r the plan b e c a u s e e m p l o y e e s a r e r e q u i r e d to contribute t o w a r d the cost. Ebccluded are legally required plans, su c h as w o r k m e n ' s c o m p e n s a t i o n , social security, a n d railroad retirement.

Sickness a n d accident ins u r a n c e is limited to that type of i n s u r a n c e u n d e r w h i c h p r e d e t e r m i n e d c a s h p a y m e n t s a r e m a d e directly to the i n s u r e d d uring t e m p o r a r y illness or accident disability.
