Union Wages and Hours:Building Trades, July 1, 1966

Sum m ary

Wage s c a le s of a l l unionized building- tra d e s w ork ers av erag ed $ 4 .5 9 an hour on Ju ly 1, 1966, accord ing to the B u re a u 's 60th annual su rvey of such s c a le s in c it ie s of 100, 000 population or m o re . Journeym en had an av erag e sc a le of $4 . 83 an hour. Hourly s c a le s of $4 or m ore w ere in effect for 19 out of 20 journeym en. About one-fifth had a sca le of $4 to $ 4 .5 0 an hour, nearly two- fifths rece iv ed between $4. 50 and $5 an hour, although somewhat m o re than one-third had a sc a le of at l e a s t $5 an hour. H elpers and la b o r e r s had an av erag e sc a le of $ 3 .6 7 an hour. C lo se to one-third of the he lpers and l a b o r e r s were paid a sca le of l e s s than $3 . 50 an hour, and about one-half of these , l e s s than $3 . A sc a le of between $ 3 .7 0 and $4 an hour was rece iv ed by two-fifths of the h elpers and l a b o r e r s , and somewhat m ore than one- fifth were paid $4 or m o re an h o u r .1

During the y ear between Ju ly 1, 1965,and Ju ly 1, 1966, 94 percent of the surveyed w ork ers rece iv ed in c r e a s e s in their s c a le . As a re su lt , the av erage hourly sc a le ro se 18 cents or 4. 2 percent over the y ear . The av erage sc a le for journeym en advanced 4. 2 percent or 19 cents an hour. Seven out of 8 rece iv ed in c r e a s e s of at l e a s t 10 cents an hour, about 7 out of 10 w ere paid from 10 to 30 cents m ore an hour. N early 1 in 5 saw their sca le r i s e by 30 cents or m ore . H elpers and l a b o r e r s ' av erag e sc a le a lso in c r e a s e d by 4. 2 percent, but this amounted to only 15 cents an hour. All but 15 percent rece iv ed hourly sca le in c r e a s e s of 10 cents or m o re . C lo se to three-fourths rece ived advances of between 10 and 25 cents an hour and n early two-fifths had in c r e a s e s of from 15 to 20 cents . About one-eighth were given in c r e a s e s amounting to 25 cents or m o re .

Many labor-m an agem en t contracts p r o vide f o r em ployer payments to in surance (health and w elfare) , pension, an d /or v a c a tion funds. The inclusion of such contract stipulated paym ents with the b a s ic s c a le s r a i s e d the negotiated av erag e for all building- t r a d e s w o rk ers , a s a group, to $4. 98 an hour; for journeym en to $5 . 24, and for he lpers and l a b o r e r s to $ 3 .9 7 .

1 For ease o f reading in this and subsequent discussions o f tabulations, the lim its o f the class intervals are designatedas 15 to 20 cents, 3 to 4 percent, e tc . , instead o f using them ore precise term inology, "15 and under 20 cents, 3 and under4 p e rce n t ," etc.

S tra igh t-t im e workweek schedules a v e r aged 39. 2 hours on Ju ly 1, 1966, for allbu ild ing-trades w ork ers combined. A 40-hour weekly schedule was in effect for about 5 of every 6 w ork ers .Hourly Wage S c a le s , 1966

S c a le s for all journeym en t r a d e s c o m bined av erag ed $4. 83 an hour on Ju ly 1, 1966. By trade , av erag e hourly s c a l e s for jo u rn ey men ranged fro m $ 4 .3 7 for p aperh an gers and s la te and tile ro o fe r s to $5.11 for m ach in is ts .

All but 6 percent of the journeym en were paid a sc a le of at l e a s t $4 an hour, but s c a le s ranged fa r beyond this point and w ere widely distr ibuted . Approxim ately one-fifth e a c h were paid fro m $4 to $4 . 50, $4 . 50 to $4 . 80, and $4 .80 to $5 .10 an hour. N early one-tenth had a sca le of at l e a s t $5 .60 an hour (table 8).

Among he lpers and la b o r e r s , h o u r l y s c a le s av erag ed $ 3 .6 7 , and by trade , ranged from $ 2 . 9 0 for com position ro o fe r s ' he lpers to $4 . 14 for te r r a z z o w ork ers ' h e lp er s . A lm ost one-third of the h e lper s and l a b o r e r s were paid a sc a le of l e s s than $3 . 50 an hour; about half of these rece iv ed l e s s than $3. Two-fifths had a sc a le of between $ 3 . 7 0 and $4 an hour, but somewhat m ore than one-fifth were paid $4 or m o re .

Insurance (health and w elfare) , pension, and vacation plans provided in l a b o r -m a n a g e ment ag reem en ts for w ork ers in the building t r a d e s h a v e in c r e a se d stead ily in recent y e a r s . The w idespread development of such plans in this industry has perhaps been l e s s rapid than in in dustr ie s where p rob lem s of sea so n a l operation and c a su a l employment are not a s extensive. A lso , m ost construction- trade unions have operated their own p r o g ra m s providing their m e m b e r s with one type of benefit or m ore such a s those covering death, old age, s ic k n e s s , or d isab il ity . The development of negotiated in suran ce and pension p ro g ra m s undoubtedly has been affected by these f a c t o r s . 1 2 * 4

2 The prevalence o f negotiated health, insurance, and pension programs for construction-trades workers were first studied in July 1954. Inform ation on these plans was restricted to those financed entirely or in part by the em ployer. Plans financed by workers through union dues or assessments w ere excluded from the study. N o attem pt was m ade to secure inform ation on the kind and extent o f benefits provided, or on the cost o f plans providing such benefits. In the present study, how ever, in form ation was obtained on the am ount o f em ployer contributions in terms o f cents per hour or percent o f rate. Such inform ation is presented in table 15. Although some em ployer payments are ca lcu la ted on the basis o f total hours or gross payroll, these variations in the com putations are not ind ica ted in the tabulation.

On Ju ly 1, 1966, negotiated em ployerpaym ents to in surance , pension, an d /or v a c a tion funds, or d irec t ly to the w ork ers in lieu of benefits , amounted to 39 cents an hour, on the av e rag e , for a l l bu ild ing-trades w o rk ers , including those for whom no em ployer contributions were spec if ied in their p ar t icu lar agreem ent. The com parab le av erag e was 41 cents for journeym en and 30 cents for helpers and l a b o r e r s . The inclusion of cont ra c t stipulated paym ents with the negotiated b a s ic s c a le s r a i s e d the a v e r a g e s for individual journeym en t r a d e s by amounts ranging f ro m 12 cents for m ach in is ts to 64 cents for p lu m bers . Among he lpers and la b o r e r s , ad vances ranged f ro m 13 cents for com position ro o fe r s ' he lpers to 41 cents for p l a s t e r e r s ' l a b o r e r s (table 4).

City and Regional A verages

In the building industry, l a b o r -m a n a g e ment negotiations a re genera lly conducted on a locality b a s i s . Among the fac to r s affecting the wage s c a le s for bu ild ing-trades w ork ers a re var ia t ion s in type and amount of local building activity, the demand for construction w o rk ers , the extent of unionization, and the genera l level of w ages in individual lo ca l i t ie s . These f a c to r s a re re f lec ted in the re la t ive ly wide var ia t ion s in negotiated s c a le s for individual c ra f t s within a locality a s well as in the d ifference in r a t e s among c it ie s . F o r exam ple , hourly s c a le s for tile la y e r s ranged fro m $ 3 . 5 5 in Tam pa to $ 5. 50 in San F r a n c i s c o —Oakland. The range of r a t e samong the 24 journeym en tra d e s in s ix m a jo r c it ie s a re shown in the following tabulation:

The difference between the highest andlowest sca le for h e lpers and la b o r e r s in eachof the above c it ie s was sm a lle r than that forjourneym en. The d ifferen ces ranged from80 cents in Boston to $ 1. 07 in San F r a n c i s c o — Oakland.

The city and regional a v e ra g e s presented in tab les 9 and 11 a re designed to show c u r rent lev e ls of r a te s for the two groups— journeym en, and he lpers and l a b o r e r s . As prev iously indicated, s c a le s f o r individual t r a d e s d iffer f ro m one city to another. The

city a v e r a g e s a re influenced not only by d iffe re n c e s in r a te s among c i t ie s , but a l so by d iffe ren ces in the proportion of organized w ork ers in the v a r io u s c r a f t s . F o r exam ple, a p ar t icu la r c ra f t or c la s s i f i c a t io n m ay not be organ ized in som e a r e a s or m ay be o r ganized l e s s intensively in som e a r e a s than in o thers . In addition, ce r ta in types of work a re found in som e a r e a s but not in others , or they are found to a g re a te r extent in som e a r e a s than in o th ers . T hese d if fe ren ces a re re f lec ted in the weighting of individual ra te s by the number of union m e m b e r s at the rate . T h ere fore , even though ra te s for all individual c ra f t s in two a r e a s may be identical, the av erag e for a l l c r a f t s combined in each of the a r e a s m ay differ .

A verage hourly s c a le s , on a c ity b a s i s , v a r ied widely for both journeym en and he lp e r s and l a b o r e r s . Hourly s c a le s for j o u r neymen av erag ed highest, $ 5. 63, in New York City and lowest, $3 . 83, in Charlotte . S c a le s av eraged $5 or m o re an hour in 11 other c it ie s and l e s s than $4 an hour in 4 others (table 9). F o r h e lper s and l a b o r e r s , a v e r age hourly s c a le s v a r ie d fro m $ 1 . 8 6 in J a c k so n to $ 5 . 0 2 in New York City. They av erag ed $4 or m o re in four other c i t ie s and l e s s than $ 2 in three others (table 9). No effective s c a le s w ere reported for h e lper s and la b o r e r s in Charlotte .

Grouping the 68 c it ie s included in the su rvey accord ing to population s iz e r e v e a ls that av erag e hourly s c a le s v a r ied by s iz e of city. S c a le s av erag ed $ 5 . 2 3 an hour for j o u r n e y m e n and $ 4 . 17 an h o u r f o r h e l p e r s and la b o r e r s in the group of c it ie s with am illion population or m o re---7 5 and 80 cents,re sp ec t iv e ly , higher than those in the s m a l l e s t s iz e group studied (100 ,000 to 250,000).

The range of av erag e hourly s c a le s for c it ie s within each population group v a r ie d widely for journeym en and even m ore widely for h e lper s and l a b o r e r s . The d ifference between the highest and low est city av erage for journeym en was g r e a te s t in the group of c it ie s with populations of 250, 000 to 500, 000 ( $1 . 75 ) and for h e lper s and la b o r e r s in c it ie s of 100, 000 to 250 , 000 population ( $2 . 29 ) . They w ere n arro w est in c it ie s with populations of 1 m il lion or m ore , 86 cents for journeym en and $ 1 . 6 6 for h e lpers and l a b o r e r s . Hourly wage s c a le s , however, were not alw ays re la ted to c i ty - s iz e groups. F o r exam ple , the av erag e sc a le for journeym en in Trenton, in the group of sm a l le s t c it ie s was exceeded by only three c it ie s in the l a r g e r s iz e groups.

As prev iously indicated, many l a b o r - m anagem ent a g reem en ts provide f o r e m ployer contributions to in surance (health and w elfare) , pension, an d /or vacation p l a n s . Such contributions, among the 68 c it ie s s u r veyed, when av e rag e d among all building- t rad e s w ork ers combined (whether covered by a plan or not), v a r ie d from 1 cent an hour in J a c k so n to 7 9 cents an hour in S a c ram ento . E m plo yer contributions genera lly av eraged highest in the in dustr ia l ized Middle Atlantic, G reat L a k e s , and P acif ic reg ions. The av erage hourly union sc a le plus contract stipulated em ployer contributions r a n g e d f ro m $ 3. 44 in J a c k so n to $ 6. 27 in New York City (table 10).

A verage union hourly wage s c a l e s , on a regional b a s i s , exc lu s ive of em ployer contributions to funds, for all bu ild ing-trades w ork ers v a r ie d from $ 3 . 8 2 in the Southeast to $5 . 13 in the Middle Atlantic S ta te s . Hourly s c a le s equaled the $ 4 . 5 9 national av erage in the G reat L a k e s region and exceeded it in the Pacif ic ( $4 . 84 ) (table 11).

A verage hourly s c a le s for journeymen, exc lusive of em ployer contributions to funds, w ere highest ( $5 . 33 ) in the Middle Atlantic region and lowest ( $4. 10) in the Southeast region. F o r h e lper s and l a b o r e r s , av erage hourly s c a le s v a r ie d from $2 . 31 to $ 4 . 3 5 in the Southeast and Middle Atlantic S tates , r e spective ly (table 11).

Union S c a le s by City and Trade

Table 15 p re sen ts the union s c a le s of wages and hours in effect on Ju ly 1, 1965,and Ju ly 1, 1966, together with the amount of em ployer contributions to in suran ce , pension, and vacation p lans on Ju ly 1, 1966, for theindividual tra d e s in each of the 68 c it ie s surveyed.

Wage Sca le In c r e a s e s , 1965—66

Rate changes in the unionized segm ent of the building industry re su lt a lm o st exc lu s iv e ly from labor-m an agem en t negotiations. Many of the union contracts in effect on Ju ly 1, 1966, w ere negotiated for 2 y e a r s —a few were for a longer period. C ontracts of m ore than a y e a r ' s duration often contain provis io n s for periodic in c r e a s e s . Although individual con trac ts provided for in c r e a s e s at var iou s da te s , only those sca le changes that actually becam e effective between Ju ly 1, 1965, and Ju ly 1, 1966, were included in the curren t study. Some of these sc a le rev is io n s w ere provided for in contracts which becam e effective p r io r to Ju ly 1, 1965. A numberof ag reem en ts negotiated during the y ear contained p rov is ions for ra te in c r e a s e s a fter

Ju ly 1, 1966. Such d e fe rre d advances wereexcluded from the survey . Thus, the sca le changes p resen ted herein do not re f lec t the total wage sc a le changes negotiated in individual contracts during the 12 months covered by the survey .

R evis ions in hourly wage s c a l e s , which becam e effective during the y e a r ending Ju ly 1, 1966, r a i s e d the leve l of s c a le s forbu ild ing-trades w ork ers 4. 2 percent. This r i s e , l a r g e r than that r e g i s t e r e d in each of the four previous 12-month p er io ds , advanced the B u re a u 's index (1957—59=100) to 136. 9 (table 1). Reflected in this advance were gains of 4. 2 percent for journeym en and 4. 2 percent for he lpers and la b o r e r s (table 3).

The in c r e a se in the av erag e hourly wage s c a le s , among the 24 journeym en tr a d e s , v a r ie d from 3.1 percent for la th ers to 6 .0 percent for g l a z ie r s . Gains of 3. 5 to 4 p e r cent were reco rd ed for s ix t r a d e s , 4 to 4. 5 percent for seven t r a d e s , 4. 5 to 5 percent for three t r a d e s , and 5 percent or m o re for four other c r a f t s . F o r h e lper s and la b o r e r s the advances v a r ie d fro m 3. 2 percent for elevator co n stru c to r s ' he lpers to 6 .0 percent for t e r r a z z o w ork ers ' h e lper s . Building l a b o r e r s , the l a r g e s t group num erical ly , ad vanced their av erag e hourly sc a le by 4. 5 percent (table 3).

Between Ju ly 1, 1965, and Ju ly 1, 1966, hourly wage s c a l e s for unionized building- t r a d e s w ork ers in c r e a se d 18 cents , on the av e rag e , the sam e a s in the previous year .
