Introduction

This a rea is 1 of 75 in which the U.S. Department of L a b o r 's Bureau of Lab o r Statistics conducts surveys of occupational earnings and r e lated benefits . (See l i s t o f areas on inside back c o v e r . ) In each area , occupational earnings data (A - s e r i e s tab les ) a re co l lec ted annually. In fo r mation on establishment p ract ices and supplementary wage benefits (B - ser ies tab les ) is obtained e v e r y th ird year.

Each yea r a fte r a l l individual a rea wage surveys have been c o m pleted, two sum m ary bulletins a re issued. The f i r s t brings together data fo r each m etropo litan a rea surveyed; the second presents national and r e gional es t im ates , p ro jected f r o m individual m etropo litan area data, fo r all Standard M etropolitan Statistical A rea s in the United States, excluding Alaska and Hawaii.

A m a jo r consideration in the a rea wage survey p ro gram is the need to desc r ibe the le v e l and m ovem ent of wages in a v a r ie ty of labor m arkets , through the analysis of (1) the le v e l and d istribution of wages by occupation, and (2) the m ovem ent of wages by occupational ca tego ry and skil l le ve l . The p ro g ra m develops in form ation that m ay be used fo r many purposes, including wage and sa la ry administration, c o l le c t iv e bargaining, and a s sistance in determ in ing plant location. Survey results a lso a re used by the U.S. Department of Labor to make wage determ inations under the S erv ice Contract Ac t of 1965.

2 The m ean is computed fo r each job by totaling the earnings of all w o rk e rs and dividing by the number of w orkers . The median d e s ig nates position— half o f the w o rk e rs r ece ive the same or m ore and half r e ce ive the same o r less than the rate shown. The middle range is defined by two rates o f pay; a fourth of the w orkers earn the same o r less than the low er o f these rates and a fourth earn the same o r m ore than the h igher rate.

3 Earnings data re la te only to w orkers whose sex identif ication was prov ided by the estab lishment.

f o r exam ple , the p roport ion o f w o rkers rece iv ing a total o f 10 days includes those with 10 fu l l days and no half days, 9 full days and 2 half days, 8 full days and 4 half days, and so on. P roport ion s then w e re cumulated.

14 Includes payments other than "length of t im e , " such as percentage of annual earnings or f la t-sum payments, converted to an equivalent time basis ; fo r exam ple, 2 percent of annual earnings was considered as 1 week 's pay. P e r io ds o f s e rv ic e are chosen a rb i t ra r i ly and do not necessa r i ly re f lec t individual p rov is ions fo r p rogress ion ; f o r exam ple , changes in proportions at 10 yea rs include changes between 5 and 10 y ea rs . Estimates are cumulat iv e . Thus, the proportion e l ig ib le fo r at least 3 w eeks ' pay after 10 years includes those e l ig ib le for at least 3 w eeks ' pay a fter f ew e r years o f serv ice .

15 Estim ates l is ted a fte r type o f benefit are fo r all plans fo r which at least a part o f the cost is borne by the em p loyer . "Noncontributory p lans" include only those financed en t ire ly by the em p loyer . Excluded are le ga l ly requ ired plans, such as w o rk e r s ' d isab il ity compensation, soc ia l s e curity, and ra i lroad ret irem ent.

Sick leave plans are l im ited to those which defin ite ly establish at least the m in im um number of days' pay that each em ployee can expect. In fo rm a l s ick leave a llowances determined on an individual basis are excluded.

17 Estim ates under " A l l p lans" re la te to all plans for which at least a part o f the cost is borne by the em p loyer . Estim ates under "Noncontr ib utory plans" include only those financed en t ire ly by the em ployer .

18 F o r " A l l in d u s tr ie s , " all fu l l - t im e production and related workers or o f f ic e w o rkers equal 100 percent. F o r "M an u fac tu r ing ," all fu l l- t im e production and rela ted w o rkers or o f f ice w o rk e rs in manufacturing equal 100 pe rcent.

19 The mean amount is computed by multip lying the number of workers p rov ided insurance by the amount o f insurance prov ided , totaling the p rod ucts, and dividing the sum by the number o f w o rk e rs . The median indicates that half o f the w o rkers are p rov ided an amount equal to o r sm a lle r and half an amount equal to o r la r g e r than the amount shown. M iddle range (50 p e r cent)— a fourth of the w o rke rs are p rov ided an amount equal to or less than the sm a l le r amount and a fourth are p rov ided an amount equal to o r m ore than the l a r g e r amount. M iddle range (80 percen t )— 10 percent of the w o rk e rs are p rov ided an amount equal to o r less than the sm a l le r amount and 10 percent are prov ided an amount equal to or m ore than the la r g e r amount.

20 A fac tor of annual earnings is the number by which annual earnings are multip lied to determ ine the amount o f insurance provided . F o r example, a factor o f 2 indicates that fo r annual earnings of $ 10, 000 the amount of insurance p rov ided is $ 20, 000.


Appendix A.Scope and Method of Survey

In each o f the 75 1 areas current ly surveyed, the Bureau obtains wages and rela ted benefits data f r o m represen tat ive establishments within six broad industry d iv isions: Manufacturing; transportat ion, communication,and other public u til it ies ; wholesa le trade; r e ta i l trade ; f inance, insurance, and rea l estate ; and s e rv ic e s . Government operations and the construction and ex trac t ive industries are excluded. Establishments having fe w e r than a p resc r ib ed number o f w o rk e rs are also excluded because o f insuffic ient employment in the occupations studied. Appendix table 1 shows the number of establishments and w o rk e rs est im ated to be within the scope of this survey, as w e l l as the number actually studied.

Bureau f ie ld represen ta t ives obtain data by persona l v is i ts at 3 -yea r in terva ls . In each o f the two interven ing y ea rs , in form ation on employment and occupational earnings only is co l lec ted by a combination of persona l v is i t , m a i l questionnaire , and telephone in terv iew f ro m establishments partic ipating in the prev ious survey.

A sample o f the establishments in the scope o f the survey is se lec ted f o r study p r io r to each persona l v is i t survey. This sam ple , less establishments which go out of business o r are no lon ger within the industria l scope o f the survey , is retained f o r the fo llow ing two annual surveys . In most cases, establishments new to the a rea are not considered in the scope o f the survey until the se lec t ion o f a sample fo r a persona l v is i t survey.

The sampling p rocedures invo lve detailed s tra t i f ica t ion o f all establishments within the scope o f an individual area survey by industry and number of em p loyees . F r o m this s tra t i f ied universe a probab il ity sample is se lec ted , with each establishment having a p rede te rm ined chance of se lection. To obtain optimum accuracy at m in im um cost, a g rea te r proportion o f la rge than sm all establishments is se lected . When data are combined, each estab lishment is weighted accord ing to its p robab il ity o f se lection so that unbiased est im ates are generated. F o r exam ple , i f one out of four establishments is se lec ted , it is g iven a weight o f 4 to represen t i ts e l f plus th ree others. An alternate o f the same o r ig in a l p robab il ity is chosen in the same indu s try -s ize c lass if ica t ion i f data are not available f ro m the o r ig in a l sample m em ber . I f no suitable substitute is ava ilab le , additional weight is assigned to a sample m em b er that is s im i la r to the m iss ing unit.

1 Included in the 75 areas are 5 studies conducted by the Bureau under contract. These areas are Akron, Ohio; Birmingham, A la .; Norfolk—Virginia Beach—Portsmouth and Newport News—Hampton, Va.—N .C .; Poughkeepsie—Kingston—Newburgh, N .Y . ; and Utica—Rome, N .Y . In addition, the Bureau conducts more lim ited area studies in approximately 100 areas at the request o f the Employment Standards Administration of the U. S. Department of Labor.

Occupations and earnings

Occupations se lected fo r study are com mon to a v a r ie ty o f m anufacturing and nonmanufacturing industr ies , and are o f the fo l low ing types: (1)O ff ice c le r ica l ; (2) p ro fess iona l and techn ica l; (3) maintenance, to o lroom , and powerplant; and (4) m ate r ia l m ovem ent and custodial. Occupational c lass if ica t ion is based on a uniform set o f job descr iptions designed to take account o f interestablishment va r ia t ion in duties within the same job. Occupations se lected fo r study are l is ted and descr ibed in appendix B.

Unless otherw ise indicated, the earnings data fo l low ing the job tit les are fo r a ll industries combined. Earnings data fo r some o f the occupations l is ted and described, or fo r some industry d iv is ions within the scope of the survey , are not presented in the A - s e r i e s tables because e ither (1) em p lo y ment in the occupation is too small to p rov ide enough data to m e r i t p re s e n tation, o r (2) there is poss ib i l i ty of d isc losure o f individual estab lishment data. Separate men's and wom en 's earn ings data are not p resented when the number o f workers not identif ied by sex is 20 percent o r m ore of the men o r women identified in an occupation. Earnings data not shown separate ly f o r industry divisions are included in data fo r a l l industr ies combined. L ik ew ise , for occupations with m ore than one le v e l , data are included in the o v e r a l l c lass if icat ion when a sub c lass i f ica t ion is not shown o r in form ation to subclassify is not available.

Occupational employment and earnings data are shown fo r fu l l - t im e w o rk e rs , i .e ., those hired to work a regu la r w eek ly schedule. Earnings data exclude prem ium pay fo r o ve r t im e and fo r w o rk on weekends, holidays, and late shifts. Nonproduction bonuses are excluded, but cos t -o f - l i v in g a llowances and incentive bonuses are included. W eek ly hours fo r o f f ice c le r ic a l and pro fess iona l and techn ica l occupations r e f e r to the standard workweek (rounded to the nearest half hour) fo r which em p loyees r e ce iv e regu lar stra ight-t im e sa lar ies (exc lus ive o f pay fo r o ve r t im e at regu lar and/or p rem ium rates ). A ve ra ge w eek ly earnings f o r these occupations are rounded to the nearest half do l lar . V e r t i c a l l ines within the distribution o f w orkers on some A -tab les indicate a change in the s ize o f the class in t e r v a ls .

These surveys m easure the l e v e l o f occupational earnings in an area at a part icu lar t im e. Comparisons o f individual occupational a ve rages o v e r t im e m ay not re f lec t expected wage changes. The averages fo r individual jobs are affected by changes in wages and em ploym ent patterns. F o r example, proportions of w orkers employed by high- o r low -w age f i rm s m ay change, o r high-wage w orkers may advance to be tte r jobs and be rep laced by new w o rk e rs at low er rates. Such shifts in employm ent oould decrease an occupational average even though m os t estab lishm ents in an a rea increase wages during the year. Changes in earn ings o f occupational groups, shown in table A -7 , are better indicators o f wage trends than are earnings changes fo r individual jobs within the groups.


A ve ra g e earnings r e f le c t composite , areawide est im ates . Industries and estab lishments d i f fe r in pay le v e l and job staffing, and thus contribute d i f fe ren t ly to the es t im ates f o r each job. Pay averages m ay fa i l to r e f le c t accurate ly the wage d i f fe r en t ia l among jobs in individual establishments.

A v e ra g e pay le v e ls f o r men and women in se lec ted occupations should not be assumed to r e f le c t d i f ferences in pay o f the sexes within individual estab lishm ents . F ac to rs which may contribute to d i f fe rences include p ro g re s s io n within estab lished rate ranges (only the rates paid incumbents are co l le c ted ) and per fo rm ance of specif ic duties within the gen e ra l survey job descr ip t ions . Job descriptions used to c lass i fy em p loyees in these surveys usually are m o r e gen era l iz ed than those used in individual estab lishments and a l low f o r m inor d i f ferences among establishments in spec i f ic duties p e r fo rm ed .

Occupational em p loym ent estimates represent the total in all e s tab lishments within the scope o f the study and not the number actually surveyed. Because occupational structures among establishments d i f fe r , est im ates of occupational em ploym ent obtained f ro m the sample of establishments studied s e rv e only to indicate the r e la t iv e importance of the jobs studied. These d i f fe rences in occupational structure do not affect m ate r ia l ly the accuracy of the earnings data.

W age trends f o r se lec ted occupational groups

The p ercen t in c rea ses presented in table A -7 are based on changes in average hourly earn ings o f m en and women in establishments reporting the trend jobs in both the current and prev ious y ea r (matched establishments). The data are adjusted to r em ove the e f fec t on average earnings of em p lo y ment shifts among estab lishm ents and turnover of establishments included in survey sam ples . The p ercen t inc reases , however , are s t i l l a f fected by fac tors other than wage inc reases . H ir ings, layoffs , and turnover may a f fect an estab lishm ent a ve ra ge for an occupation when w orke rs are paid under plans prov id ing a range o f wage rates fo r individual jobs. In per iods o f in c reased h ir ing , f o r exam p le , new em ployees may enter at the bottom o f the range, d epress in g the a ve ra ge without a change in wage rates.

The percent changes re la te to wage changes between the indicated dates. When the t im e span between surveys is other than 12 months, annual rates are shown. (It is assumed that wages increase at a constant rate between su rveys . )

areas in the p ro g ram are computed

1. A v e ra g e earnings are computed fo r each occupation fo r the 2 y ea rs being compared. The averages are derived f r o m earnings in those establishments which are in the survey both y ea rs ; it is assumed that employment rem ains unchanged.

2. Each occupation is ass igned a weight based on its proportionate employm ent in the occupational group in the base year.

3. These weights are used to compute group averages .Each occupation 's average earnings (computed in step 1) is m ult ip l ied by its weight. The products are totaled to obtain a group average .

4. The ratio o f group averages fo r 2 consecutive yea rs is computed by dividing the ave rage fo r the current y ea r by the ave rage fo r the e a r l i e r yea r . The result— exp ressed as a percent— less 100 is the percent change.

Establishment p rac t ices and supplementary wage prov is ions

The incidence o f se lec ted establishment p rac t ices and supplementary wage p rov is ions is studied fo r fu l l - t im e production and related w orkers and o f f ic e w o rk e rs . Production and re la ted w o rk e rs ( r e f e r r e d to herea fte r as production w o rk e rs ) include work ing superv isors and all non superv isory w o rk e rs (including group leaders and t ra in ees ) engaged in fabricating, p ro cess in g , assem bling , inspection, rece iv in g , s torage , handling, packing, warehousing, shipping, maintenance, repa ir , jan ito r ia l and guard s e r v ic e s , product development, aux il iary production fo r plant's o w n use (e .g . , powerp lant), and recordkeep ing and other s e rv ic e s c lose ly a ssoc iated with the above production operations.

O ff ic e w o rke rs include work ing superv isors and all nonsuperv isory w o rke rs (including lead w o rke rs and tra in ees ) pe r fo rm ing c le r ic a l o r re la ted o f f ic e functions in such departments as accounting, advert is ing, purchasing, co l lec t ion , cred it , finance, lega l , pay ro l l , personnel, sa les , industr ia l re la t ions, public re la t ions, execu tive , o r transportat ion. Adm in is tra t ive , execu tive , p ro fess ion a l , and p a r t - t im e em ployees as w e l l as construction w o rkers uti l ized as separate work fo rc es are excluded f ro m both the production and o f f ic e w o rk e r ca tegor ies .

Because o f the optimum sampling techniques used and the p robab il ity that la rg e es tab l ish ments are m ore l ik e ly than sm a ll establishments to have fo rm a l entrance rates above the subc ler ica l l e v e l , the table is m o re rep resen ta t ive o f po l ic ies in medium and la rge establishments. (The " X ' s " shown under standard week ly hours indicate that no meaningful totals are app licab le. )

Shift d i f fe ren t ia ls— manufacturing (table B - 2 ) . Data w e re co l lec ted on po lic ies o f manufacturing establishments regard ing pay d if fe ren t ia ls fo r production w o rke rs on late shifts. Estab lishments considered as having po l ic ies are those which (1) have prov is ions in w r it ing cover ing the operation o f late shifts , o r (2) have operated late shifts at any t im e during the 12 months p reced ing a survey. When estab lishments have s e v e ra l d if ferentia ls which va ry by job, the d i f fe ren t ia l applying to the m a jo r i ty o f the production w o rke rs is recorded . When establishments have d if fe ren t ia ls which apply only to certa in hours o f work, the d i f fe ren t ia l applying to the m a jo r i ty of the shift hours is recorded .

F o r purposes of this study, a late shift is e i ther a second (evening) shift which ends at o r near midnight o r a th ird (night) shift which starts at o r near midnight.

D if fe ren t ia ls fo r second and th ird shifts are sum m arized separate ly fo r ( l ) estab lishment po l ic ie s (an estab lishm ent 's d if fe ren t ia ls are weighted by all production w o rk e rs in the estab lishment at the t im e of the survey ) and (2) e f fe c t iv e p rac t ices (an estab lishm ent 's d if fe ren t ia ls are weighted by production w o rk e rs em ployed on the spec if ied shift at the t im e o f the survey ).

Scheduled w eek ly hours; paid holidays; paid vacations; and health, insurance, and pension p lans. P ro v is io n s which apply to a m a jo r i ty of the production o r o f f ice w o rke rs in an establishment are considered to apply to a l l production or o f f ic e w o rk e rs in the establishment; a p rac t ice o r p rov is ion is considered nonexistent when it applies to less than a m a jo r i ty . Holidays; vacations; and health, insurance, and pension plans are considered applicable to em ployees curren t ly e l ig ib le fo r the benefits as w e l l as to em p loyees who w i l l eventually becom e e l ig ib le .

Scheduled w eek ly hours and days (table B - 3 ) . Scheduled w eek ly hours and days r e f e r to the number o f hours and days pe r week which fu l l t im e f i r s t (day) shift w o rk e rs are expected to work , whether paid fo r at s tra igh t-t im e o r o ve r t im e rates.

Pa id holidays (table B - 4 ) . Holidays are included i f w o rk e rs who are not requ ired to work are paid fo r the t im e o f f and those requ ired to work r e c e iv e p rem ium pay or com pensatory t im e off. They a re included only i f they are granted annually on a fo rm a l basis (p rov ided fo r in

Pa id persona l holiday plans, typ ica l ly found in the automobile and rela ted industr ies , are included as paid holidays.

Data are tabulated to show the percent o f w o rkers who (1) are granted spec if ic numbers of whole and half holidays and (2) are granted spec if ied amounts o f total holiday t im e (whole and half holidays are aggregated ).

P a id vacations (table B - 5 ) . Estab lishm ents report th e ir method of calculating vacation pay (time bas is , p ercent of annual earnings, f la t-sum payment, etc .) and the amount o f vacation pay granted. Only bas ic fo rm a l plans are reported. Vacation bonuses, vaca t ion -sav ings plans, and "extended" o r "sabbat ica l" benefits beyond bas ic plans are excluded.

F o r tabulating vacation pay granted, a l l prov is ions are exp ressed on a t im e basis. Vacation pay calculated on other than a t im e basis is converted to its equivalent time per iod . Two percent o f annual earn ings, fo r exam ple , is tabulated as 1 week 's vacation pay.

A lso , provis ions a fter each spec i f ied length o f s e rv ic e are rela ted to all production or o f f ice w orkers in an estab lishm ent r ega rd less of length of s e rv ic e . Vacation plans commonly p rov ide fo r a la r g e r amount of vacation pay as s e rv ic e lengthens. Counts of production o r o f f ic e w o rk e rs by length o f s e rv ic e w ere not obtained. The tabulations o f vacation pay granted present, th ere fo re , s tatistica l m easu res o f these prov is ions rather than proportions of w orkers actually r ece iv in g spec i f ic benefits .

Health, insurance, and pension plans (tables B -6 and B - 7 ) . Health, insurance, and pension plans include plans fo r which the em p loye r pays e ither all o r part o f the cost. The cost m ay be (1) underwritten by a c o m m erc ia l insurance company or nonprofit organ iza tion , (2) c o ve red by a union fund to which the em p loyer has contributed, o r (3) borne d ire c t ly by the em p loyer out of operating funds o r a fund set aside to c o v e r the cost. A plan is included even though a m a jo r i ty of the em p loyees in an es tab l ish ment do not choose to partic ipate in it because they are requ ired to bear part o f its cost (provided the choice to part ic ipa te is ava ilab le o r w i l l eventually become available to a m a jo r i ty ) . L e g a l ly requ ired plans such as soc ia l security , ra i lroad re t irem en t, w o rk e r s ' d isab il i ty compensation, and tem pora ry disabil ity insurance 3 are excluded.

3 Temporary disability insurance which provides benefits to covered workers disabled by injury or illness which is not work-connected is mandatory under State laws in California, New Jersey, New York, and Rhode Island. Establishment plans which meet only the legal requirements are excluded from these data, but those under which (1 ) employers contribute more than is lega lly required or (2 ) benefits exceed those specified in tire State law are included. In Rhode Island, benefits are paid out of a State fund to which only employees contribute. In each of the other three States, benefits are paid either from a State fund or through a private plan.

State fund financing: In California, only employees contribute to the State fund; in New Jersey,employees and employers contribute; in New York, employees contribute up to a specified maximum and employers pay the difference between the employees' share and the total contribution required.

Private plan financing: In California and New Jersey, employees cannot be required to contributemore than they would i f they were covered by the State fund; in New York, employees can agree to contribute more if the State rules that the additional contribution is commensurate with the benefit provided.

Federal legislation ( Railroad Unemployment Insurance A ct) provides temporary disability insurance benefits to railroad workers for illness or injury, whether work-connected or not. The legislation requires that employers bear the entire cost of the insurance.


L i fe insurance includes fo rm a l plans providing indemnity (usually through an insurance p o l ic y ) in case o f death of the cove red w o rk e r . In form ation is a lso p rov ided in table B -7 on types of l i fe insurance plans and the amount o f c ove ra ge ip a l l industries combined and in manufacturing.

Acc iden ta l death and d ism em berm ent insurance is l im ited to plans wh ich prov ide benefit payments in case of death o r loss o f l im b o r sight as a d ire c t result o f an accident.

Sickness and accident insurance includes only those plans which p rov ide that p red e te rm in ed cash payments be made d irec t ly to em ployees who lose t im e f r o m w ork because of i l lness o r injury, e .g . , $ 50 a week fo r up to 26 weeks o f d isab il i ty .

Sick leave plans are l im ited to fo rm a l plans 4 which prov ide fo r continuing an em p lo ye e 's pay during absence f ro m work because of i l lness . Data co l lec ted distinguish between (1) plans which provide full pay with no wait ing per iod , and (2) plans which e ither p rov ide partia l pay o r requ ire a wait ing per iod .

L o n g - t e r m d isab il i ty insurance plans provide payments to tota l ly d isabled em p loyees upon the exp irat ion of th e ir paid sick leave and/or s ick ness and accident insurance, o r a fter a predeterm ined per iod o f d isab il i ty (typ ica l ly 6 months). Paym ents are made until the end of the d isab il i ty , a m ax im um age, o r e l ig ib i l i t y fo r re t irem ent benefits . Fu l l o r par t ia l payments a re a lm ost always reduced by soc ia l security, w o rk e r s ' d isab il ity compensation, and p r iva te pension benefits payable to the disabled em ployee .

H osp ita l iza t ion , su rg ica l , and m ed ica l insurance plans reported in these surveys p rov ide fu l l o r pa r t ia l payment for basic s e rv ic e s rendered. H osp ita l iza t ion insurance cove rs hospital room and board and may cove r other hospita l e x p en ses . Su rg ica l insurance covers surgeons ' fees . M ed ica l insurance cove rs doc to rs ' fe es fo r home, o f f ic e , or hospital calls . P lans r e s t r ic t e d to p os t -o pe ra t iv e m ed ica l care o r a doctor 's care fo r m inor a ilm ents at a w o r k e r 's p lace o f employment are not considered to be m ed ica l insurance.

M a jo r m ed ica l insurance coverage applies to s e rv ic e s which go beyond the bas ic s e rv ic e s cove red under hospitalization, surg ica l, and m ed ica l insurance. M a jo r m ed ica l insurance typ ica l ly (1) requ ires that a "d educ t ib le " ( e .g . , $ 50) be m et b e fo re benefits begin, (2) has a coinsurance feature that req u ire s the insured to pay a portion (e .g . , 20 percen t ) o f c erta in expenses , and (3) has a spec if ied do l la r maxim um of benefits (e .g . , $ 10, 000 a y ea r ) .

Dental insurance plans prov ide norm al dental s e rv ic e benefits , usually fo r f i l l in g s , ex trac t ions , and X - ra y s . Plans which prov ide benefits only fo r o ra l su rge ry o r repa ir ing accident damage are not reported .

R e t irem en t pension plans provide fo r regu lar payments to the r e t i r e e fo r l i f e . Included are d e fe r red pro f it-shar ing plans which prov ide the option of purchasing a l i f e t im e annuity.

4 An establishment is considered as having a formal plan if it specifies at least the minimum number of days o f sick leave available to each employee. Such a plan need not be written, but informal sick leave allowances determined on an individual basis are excluded.
