P re fa c e

The annual area wage survey p rogram of the Bureau of Labor Statistics provides information on occupational earnings, supplementary wage benefits, and establishment pract ices fo r individual metropolitan areas, and national and regional estimates for a ll m e t ro politan areas combined.

The p rogram covers six industry divisions: Manufacturing;transportation, communication, and other public utilities; wholesale trade; re ta i l trade; finance, insurance, and rea l estate; and selected se rv ices . M a jo r exclusions are the mining and construction industries and government.

A m a jo r consideration in the area wage survey p rogram is the need to describe the le v e l and movement of wages in a va r ie ty of labor markets , through the analysis of (1) the le v e l and distribution of wages by occupation, and (2) the movement of wages by occupational category. The surveys develop information that may be used fo r many purposes, including wage and salary administration, co l lec t ive b a r gaining, and assistance in determining plant location. Survey results are also used by the U.S. Department of Labor to make wage de te r minations under the Serv ice Contract Act of 1965.

In each survey area, occupational earnings data are co llected annually. Information on establishment practices and supplementary wage benefits, co l lected every second year in the past, is now obtained e v e ry third year.

Individual bulletins are issued annually for each of the areas surveyed, usually within four months of the payro ll re ference period. F o r 197172, bulletins fo r 93 metropolitan areas and 1 nonmetropolitan area were issued. A fte r a round of wage surveys is completed, two summary bulletins are prepared. The f i r s t summary for 197172, A rea Wage Surveys: Selected Metropolitan A reas , 197172, BLSBulletin 1725-95, issued in September 1973, contains information fo r 93 metropolitan areas. The second summary, presented here, provides national and regional estim ates , as w e l l as in terarea pay comparisons and trends of occupational earnings.

This bulletin was prepared in the Bureau's Division of Occupational Wage Structures. The analysis was prepared by Donald J. B lackm ore, John E. Buckley, Brian D. Comnes, Robert S. Daski, and V irg in ia L . Ward, under the direction of Kenneth J. Hoffmann. The Bureau's Associate Assistant Regional D irec tors for Operations d irected data collection.

The wage survey program could not be carr ied out without the cooperation of the many f irm s which provide wage and salary data. The Bureau wishes to express sincere appreciation for the cooperation it has rece ived .

Introduction

This bulletin provides national and regional estimates of occupational earnings, supplementary wage benefits, and establishment pract ices fo r workers in the Nation's Standard Metropolitan Statistical Areas 1 in 197172. It also presents data on in terarea pay comparisons and occupational earnings trends.

The bulletin has five chapters. A b r ie f description of the types of data presented in each follows.

Chapter I, Occupational Earn ings, provides national and r e gional estimates of stra ight-t ime hourly or weekly earnings fo r w orkers in occupations common to a va r ie ty of manufacturing and nonmanufacturing industries. The occupations w ere selected from the following employment categor ies : Office c le r ica l , pro fessional andtechnical, maintenance and powerplant, and custodial and m ater ia l movement. Separate detail is presented for m a jor industry divisions, e .g ., manufacturing, public utilities, reta il trade. Information on the earnings of e lectron ic data processing jobs, by s ize of establishment and type of business activity, is also provided.

Chapter II, Wage D ifferences Among Metropolitan A r e a s , p ro vides in terarea pay comparisons fo r 90 metropolitan areas surveyed between March 1971 and February 1972. Comparisons are made for four occupational groups office c le r ica l , e lectron ic data processing, skilled maintenance, and unskilled plant workers using constant occupational employment weights and adjusting data for differences in survey t im ing among areas. Tabulations include separate detail fo r manufacturing and nonmanufacturing industry divisions covered by the surveys. Data on urban fam ily budgets are compared to wage leve ls in the 28 metropolitan areas where both were measured.

1 The 229 metropolitan areas as defined by the Office of Management and Budget through January 1968, excluding metropolitan areas in Alaska and Hawaii.

Chapter III, Trends of Occupational Earn ings, presents earn ings trends information fo r four occupational groups: Office c le r ica l ,industrial nurses, skilled maintenance, and unskilled plant workers . It provides data on earnings movements over 1-year (197172) and 11- y ea r (196172) periods, as w e l l as measures of changes in real earnings fo r the two periods. The Bureau began its earnings trend series fo r all metropolitan areas combined in 1961.

Chapter IV, Establishment P rac t ices and Supplementary Wage P ro v is io n s , presents information on late-sh ift pay provisions and pract ices fo r plant workers in manufacturing; and data for plant w orkers and office workers on scheduled weekly hours and days, paid holidays, paid vacations, and health, insurance, and pension plans. The text of the chapter highlights changes in provisions and practices over the 196172 period.

Chapter V, Labor-Management Agreem ent C ove rage , provides estimates of the proportions of plant workers and office workers in metropolitan area establishments having labor-management agreements covering a m a jor ity of these workers in 197172. It also presents estimates on the extent of labor-management agreement coverage by region and industry division.

Appendix A gives descriptions of the scope and methods used in the area wage survey program , along with definitions of the concepts used. It also includes a b r ie f summary of the characteristics of metropolitan areas.

Appendix B includes descriptions used in classifying workers in the occupations fo r which stra ight-t ime earnings information is presented.

Chapter I. Occupational Earnings

This chapter presents occupational earnings information for all metropolitan areas combined and fo r four broad regions. W herever possib le , separate detail is provided fo r each of the six industry divisions studied: Manufacturing; transportation, communication, andother public utilit ies ( r e fe r r e d to as public util it ies ); wholesale trade; re ta i l trade; finance, insurance, and rea l estate ( r e fe r r e d to as finance); and selected serv ices . (See tables A - l through A-25.)

To observe wage patterns by region and industry division, pay re la t ives w e re developed by grouping individual o ff ice c le r ica l , e lectron ic data process ing, skilled maintenance, and unskilled plants occupations. (P ay re la t ives are the average stra ight-t ime earnings in the region and industry group as a percent of the average for the job group in all metropolitan areas combined.) The occupations making up the four job groups are listed in appendix A. This year, specia l emphasis has been placed on the e lectron ic data process ing jobs.

O ff ice c le r ic a l occupations

A ve rage week ly earnings for the o ff ice c le r ica l jobs studied ranged from $87 fo r routine f i le clerks to $169 fo r s ecre ta r ies assigned to the highest ranking o ff ic ia ls of medium- and la rg e -s iz ed establishments. A ve ra g e earnings at the a l l-m etropo litan area le v e l r e f lec t a combination of factors , including d ifferences in establishment pay le ve ls among and within areas. No attempt was made to isolate all factors that affect earnings, but some genera l comparison of occupational earnings leve ls can be made by region and industry division. T ex t table 1 i l lustrates variation in earnings leve ls by region and industry division.

As in e a r l ie r years , earnings of o f f ice c le r ica l w orkers w ere highest in the West and lowest in the South. Although the Northeast and North Central regions switched rankings between 1971 and 1972, d if ferences in pay leve ls between these regions w e re v e r y sm all in both years.

There was also a change in the ranking of industry divisions. Until 1972, lowest week ly earnings fo r o ff ice c le r ica l workers w ere found in re ta i l trade. Although re ta i l trade maintained its position re la t ive to all industries combined (92 percent of the all-industries le ve l ) , the finance d ivis ion dropped from 93 percent to 91 percent of the a l l- industr ies leve l. The re la t ive earnings leve l fo r finance dropped in each of the four regions.

However, i f rankings by industry d ivis ion were based on hourly rather than w eek ly earnings, finance would be higher than retail trade in 1972, as in 1971. W eek ly earnings in finance re f lec t the short average workweek, the shortest of all the industry divisions. As shown in table B -2 , 65 percent of the o ff ice workers in finance had schedules of less than 40 hours a week, compared to 28 percent for re ta i l trade.

P ro fess iona l and technical occupations

Computer operators , p rog ram m ers , and systems analysts. Recognizing the increased application of computers and the concomitant employment r ise in the e lectron ic data process ing (EDP) f ield, the Bureau added three EDP occupations to jobs regu lar ly surveyed on a c ross- industry basis in the area wage program . Three work leve ls w ere developed for each of the jobs (see descriptions in appendix B). The following discussion re lates to an estimated 120, 000 men and women employed as computer operators , p rog ram m ers , and systems analysts in a ll metropolitan areas of the United States. P ro g ram m ers and analysts surveyed w ere l im ited to those engaged in the business application of computers, as distinct from others whose duties involved an engineer ing-sc ien ti f ic orientation.

Among regions, average earnings w ere lowest in the South, a pattern s im ila r to that in other plant and o ff ice occupations surveyed. No region was c lea r ly highest paying for EDP jobs. The West had highest average sa lar ies for computer operators and the Northeast highest paying fo r c lass A and B p rog ram m ers and systems analysts. The North Central reg ion was highest paying for c lass C p rogram m ers.

F o r those industries l isted in text table 2, the spread between the highest and lowest re la t ive pay le ve l fo r EDP jobs averaged 22 percent; fo r the o ff ice c le r ic a l groups, the corresponding spread was 54 p e r cent. The occupations included in each group are l isted in appendix A.

In addition to regional and industrial variations in earnings fo r ED P jobs, d if ferences w ere also noted by establishment em ployment size. With few exceptions, average earnings for EDP occupations increased with employment s ize , matching the pattern in other occupations. Variation in earnings by establishment s ize was sm aller for systems analysts than fo r computer operators and program m ers (text table 3). Within the three jobs, earnings variation by size of establishment was genera lly la rgest fo r c lass C jobs and smallest for class A.

______1 The scope of the study was lim ited to establishments which employed 50 workers or more.

However, in 12 of the largest areas, establishments in manufacturing, public utilities, and retail trade with fewer than 100 workers were excluded from the survey.

Draftsmen. Earnings o f draftsmen also var ied by work leve l, region, and industry division. Nationwide, average weekly earnings ranged from $217.50 fo r class A draftsmen to $120.50 for draftsmen- tracers . Regionally , average earnings w ere genera lly highest in the North Central and lowest in the South, with differences between the highest and lowest regions ranging from 9 percent fo r class B dra fts men to 17 percent fo r class A. (The inverse relationship between skill leve l and interreg iona l pay d if ferences found for EDP jobs was not found fo r the drafting occupations.) Except fo r d ra ftsm en -tracers , average earnings fo r drafting jobs w ere highest in public utilities and lowest in wholesale trade. However, these two industry divisions together accounted fo r only 9 percent of a ll drafting jobs. Earnings of dra ftsm en-tracers w ere highest in manufacturing and lowest in serv ices .

A m a jo r ity of draftsmen (72 percent) w ere found in manufacturing f irm s , with most of the remaining (18 percent) in serv ice industries p r im a r i ly engineering and architectural f irm s . A ve rage week ly earnings w ere identical in manufacturing and serv ices for class B ($174) and class C draftsmen ($142). A ve rage week ly earnings of class A draftsmen w ere 3 percent higher in manufacturing than in se rv ices ; earnings of d ra ftsm en-tracers w ere 15 percent higher in manufacturing.

Reg is te red industrial nurses. Reg is tered industrial nurses averaged $ 169.50 weekly; regional averages ranged from $ 161.50 in the South to $179.50 in the West. O ver four-fi fths w ere employed in manufacturing establishments, where they averaged $ 169. Nurses in the highest paying industry group, public util it ies, averaged $186.


4Electron ic technicians. Earnings of e lectron ic technicians are reported fo r the f i r s t time this year. Nationwide, their average week ly earnings, $191.50, w ere c lo se r to those of c lass B computer p rog ram m ers ($198.50) than to earnings in any other pro fess iona l or technical job studied. Regionally , average weekly earnings of e l e c tronic technicians ranged from $ 186 in the South to $ 200 in the North Central region. Among industries, average week ly earnings of these w orkers w ere highest in public util it ies ($203.50) and lowest in serv ices ($ 181.50).

Recognizing the wide range of skills included in this occupation, the Bureau w i l l provide national and regional information on three work le ve ls o f e lectron ic technicians in the 197475 bulletin.

Maintenance and powerplant occupations

A ve rage hourly earnings fo r the maintenance and powerplant occupations studied ranged from $3.76 fo r maintenance trades helpers to $5.22 for tool and die makers. A ve rag e hourly earnings fo r 8 of the 12 other jobs surveyed fe l l between $4.83 and $5. A ve rag e earnings of carpenters, e lec tr ic ians , stationary engineers, and painters w ere highest in re ta i l trade, genera lly a low er paying industry group. Most of these workers in re ta i l trade w ere employed by food and genera l merchandise stores, some o f which paid the union wage rates negotiated in the construction industry. (The construction industry is excluded from the area wage surveys. In the spring of 1972, the average union hourly wage rate fo r seven selected occupations in construction was $7.12 per hour in c it ies of 100,000 inhabitants or m ore .)

P ay re la t ives fo r male sk illed maintenance workers in manufacturing w ere near ly identical to the a ll- industry re la t ives because about 80 percent o f the w orkers employed in these occupations are found in manufacturing establishments. (The only exception was automotive mechanics with only 28 percent found in manufacturing.) Since there was insufficient information to provide re la t ives for nonmanufacturing, text table 4 is l im ited to a ll industries and manufacturing.
