PrefaceThis bulletin provides results of an August 1975 survey of occupational earnings

and supplementary wage benefits in the Boston, Massachusetts, Standard Metropolitan Statistical Area (Suffolk County, 16 communities in Essex County, 34 in Middlesex County, 26 in Norfolk County, and 12 in Plymouth County). The survey was made as part of the Bureau of Labor Statistics' annual area wage survey program. The program is designed to yield data for individual metropolitan areas, as well as national and regional estimates for all Standard Metropolitan Statistical Areas in the United States, excluding Alaska and Hawaii.

A major consideration in the area wage survey program is the need to describe the level and movement of wages in a variety of labor markets, through the analysis of (1) the level and distribution of wages by occupation, and (2) the movement of wages by occupational category and skill level. The program develops information that may be used for many purposes, including wage and salary administration, collective bargaining, and assistance in determining plant location. Survey results also are used by the U.S. Department of Labor to make wage determinations under the Service Contract Act of 1965.

Currently, 83 areas are included in the program. (See list of areas on inside back cover.) In each area, occupational earnings data are collected annually. Information on establishment practices and supplementary wage benefits is obtained every third year.

Each year after all individual area wage surveys have been completed, two summary bulletins are issued. The first brings together data for each metropolitan area surveyed. The second summary bulletin presents national and regional estimates, projected from individual metropolitan area data.

The Boston survey was conducted by the Bureau's regional office in Boston, M ass., under the general direction of Paul V. Mulkern, Associate Assistant Regional Director for Operations. The survey could not have been accomplished without the cooperation of the many firms whose wage and salary data provided the basis for the statistical information in this bulletin. The Bureau wishes to express sincere appreciation for the cooperation received.

Note:Reports on occupational earnings and supplementary wage provisions in the Boston

area are available for the construction (September 1972); electrical appliance repair (September 1972); machinery (February 1973); hotels and motels (June 1973); auto dealer repair shops (June 1973); banking (August 1973); department stores (September 1973); contract cleaning services (July 1974); and laundry and dry cleaning (August 1975) industries. Also available are listings of union wage rates for building trades, printing trades, local-transit operating employees, local truckdrivers and helpers, and grocery store employees. Free copies of these are available from the Bureau's regional offices. (See back cover for addresses.)

Footnotes

A ll of these standard footnotes may not apply to this bulletin.

1 Standard hours reflect the workweek for which employees receive their regular straight-time salaries (exclusive of pay for overtime at regular and/or premium rates), and the earnings correspond to these weekly hours.

2 The mean is computed for each job by totaling the earnings of all workers and dividing by the number of workers. The median designates position— half of the employees surveyed receive more and half receive less than the rate shown. The middle range is defined by two rates of pay; a fourth of the workers earn less than the lower of these rates and a fourth earn more than the higher rate.

3 Excludes premium pay for overtime and for work on weekends, holidays, and late shifts.4 These salaries relate to formally established minimum starting (hiring) regular straight-time salaries that are paid for standard

workweeks.5 Excludes workers in subclerical jobs such as m essenger.6 Data are presented for all standard workweeks combined, and for the most common standard workweeks reported.7 Includes all plant workers in establishments currently operating late shifts, and establishments whose formal provisions cover late

shifts, even though the establishments were not currently operating late shifts.8 Less than 0.05 percent.9 Less than 0.5 percent.10 For purposes of this study, pay for a Sunday in December, negotiated in the automobile industry, is not treated as a paid holiday.11 A ll combinations of full and half days that add to the same amount are combined; for example, the proportion of workers receiving

a total of 9 days includes those with 9 full days and no half days, 8 full days and 2 half days, 7 full days and 4 half days, and so on. Proportions then were cumulated.

12 A Christmas—New Year holiday period is an unbroken series of holidays which includes Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, New Y ear's Eve, and New Y ear's Day. Such a holiday period is common in the automobile, aerospace, and farm implement industries.

13 "F loating" holidays vary from year to year according to employer or employee choice.14 Includes payments other than "length of t im e ," such as percentage of annual earnings or flat-sum payments, converted to an

equivalent time basis; for example, 2 percent of annual earnings was considered as 1 week's pay. Periods of service are chosen arbitrarily and do not necessarily reflect individual provisions for progression; for example, changes in proportions at 10 years include changes between 5 and 10 years. Estim ates are cumulative. Thus, the proportion eligible for at least 3 weeks' pay after 10 years includes those eligible for at least 3 weeks' pay after fewer years of service.

15 Estim ates listed after type of benefit are for all plans for which at least a part of the cost is borne by the employer. "Noncontributory plans" include only those financed entirely by the employer. Excluded are legally required plans, such as workmen's compensation, social security, and railroad retirement.

18 Unduplicated total of workers receiving sick leave or sickness and accident insurance shown separately below. Sick leave plans are limited to those which definitely establish at least the minimum number of days' pay that each employee can expect. Informal sick leave allowances determined on an individual basis are excluded.


Appendix A

A r e a w a g e and related benefits data are obtained by personal visits of B u reau field representatives at 3-year intervals.1 In each of the intervening years, information on e m ployment and occupational earnings is collected by a combination of personal visit, mail questionnaire, and telephone interview from establishments participating in the previous survey.

In each of the 8 3 2 areas currently surveyed, data are obtained f r o m representative estab-. lishments within six broad industry divisions: Manufacturing; transportation, communication, and otherpublic utilities; wholesale trade; retail trade; finance, insurance, and real estate; and services. Major industry groups excluded f r o m these studies are government operations and the construction and extractive industries. Establishments having fewer than a prescribed n u m b e r of workers are omitted because of insufficient e m p loyment in the occupations studied. Separate tabulations are provided for each of the broad industry divisions which m e e t publication criteria.

These surveys are conducted on a sample basis. T h e sampling procedures involve detailed stratification of all establishments within the scope of an individual area survey by industry and n u m b e r of employees. F r o m this stratified universe a probability sample is selected, with each establishment having a predetermined chance of selection. T o obtain o p t i m u m accuracy at m i n i m u m cost, a greater proportion of large than small establishments is selected. W h e n data are combined, each establishment is weighted according to its probability of selection, so that unbiased estimates are generated. For example, if one out of four establishments is selected, it is given a weight of four to represent itself plus three others. A n alternate of the s a m e original probability is chosen in the s a m e industry-size classification if data are not available for the original sample m e m b e r . If no suitable substitute is available, additional weight is assigned to a sample m e m b e r that is similar to the missing unit.

Occupations and Earnings

Occupations selected for study are c o m m o n to a variety of manufacturing and nonmanufacturing industries, and are of the following types: (1) Office clerical; (2) professional and technical; (3)maintenance and powerplant; and (4) custodial and material m o v e m e n t . Occupational classification is based on a uniform set of job descriptions designed to take account of interestablishment variation in duties within the s a m e job. Occupations selected for study are listed and described in appendix B. Unless otherwise indicated, the earnings data following the job titles are for all industries combined. Earnings data for s o m e of the occupations listed and described, or for s o m e industry divisions within occupations, are not presented in the A-series tables, because either (1) e m p loyment in the occupation is too small to provide enough data to merit presentation, or (2) there is possibility of disclosure of individual establishment data. Separate men's and w o m e n ' s earnings data are not presented wher. the n u m b e r of workers not identified by sex is 20 percent or m o r e of the m e n or w o m e n identified in an occupation. Earnings data not shown separately for industry divisions are included in all industries combined data, where shown. Likewise, data are included in the overall classification w h e n a subclassification of electronics technicians, secretaries, or truckdrivers is not shown or information to subclassify is not available.

Occupational e m p loyment and earnings data are shown for full-time workers, i.e., those hired to work a regular weekly schedule. Earnings data exclude p r e m i u m pay for overtime and for w o r k on weekends, holidays, and late shifts. Nonproduction bonuses are excluded, but cost-of-living allowances ahd incentive bonuses are included. Week l y hours for office clerical and professional and technical occupations refer to the standard w o r k w e e k (rounded to the nearest half hour) for which employees receive regular straight-time salaries (exclusive of pay for overtime at regular and/or p r e m i u m rates). Average weekly earnings for these occupations are rounded to the nearest half dollar.

These surveys m e a s u r e the level of occupational earnings in an area at a particular time. Comparisons of individual occupational averages over time m a y not reflect expected w a g e changes. The averages for individual jobs are affected by changes in w a g e s and e m p loyment patterns. F o r example, proportions of workers employed by high- or low-wage firms m a y change, or high-wage

1 Personal visits were on a 2-year cyc le before July 1972.Included in die 83 areas are 13 studies conducted by the Bureau under contract. These areas are Akron, Ohio; Austin, T e x .; Binghamton,

N. Y. —Pa.; Birmingham, A la .; Fort Lauderdale—Hollywood and West Palm Beach—Boca Raton, F la .; Lexington—Fayette, Ky. ; Melbourne—Titusville- Cocoa, Fla.; Norfolk—Virginia Beach—Portsmouth and Newport News—Hampton, Va. — N .C .; Poughkeepsie—Kingston—Newburgh, N .Y .; Raleigh— Duiham, N .C .; Syracuse, N .Y .; Utica—Rome, N .Y .; and Westchester County, N .Y . In addition, the Bureau conducts more limited area studies in approximately 70 areas at die request o f the Employment Standards Administration of the U. S. Department of Labor.

workers m a y advance to better jobs and be replaced by n e w workers at lower rates. Such shifts in empl o y m e n t could decrease an occupational average even though m o s t establishments in an area increase wages during the year. Trends in earnings of occupational groups, shown in table A - 7, are better indicators of w a g e trends than individual jobs within the groups.

Average earnings reflect composite, areawide estimates. Industries and establishments differ in pay level and job staffing, and thus contribute differently to the estimates for each job. Pay averages m a y fail to reflect accurately the w a g e differential a m o n g jobs in individual establishments.

Average pay levels for m e n and w o m e n in selected occupations should not be a s s u m e d to reflect differences in pay of the sexes within individual establishments. Factors which m a y contribute to differences include progression within established rate ranges, since only the rates paid incumbents are collected, and performance of specific duties within the general survey job descriptions. Job descriptions used to classify employees in these surveys usually are m o r e generalized than those used in individual establishments and allow for m i n o r differences a m o n g establishments in specific duties performed.

Occupational employment estimates represent the total in all establishments within the scope of the study and not the n u m b e r actually surveyed. Because occupational structures a m o n g establishm ents differ, estimates of occupational emplo y m e n t obtained f r o m the sample of establishments studied serve only to indicate the relative importance of the jobs studied. These differences in occupational structure do not affect materially the accuracy of the earnings data.

W a g e trends for selected occupational groups

T h e percents of change in table A - 7 relate to w a g e changes between the indicated dates. Annual rates of increase, where shown, reflect the amount of increase for 12 months w h e n the time span between'surveys w a s other them 12 months. Annual rates are based on the assumption that wages increased at a constant rate between surveys.

Occupations used to compute wage trends are:

Percent changes for individual areas in the p r o g r a m are compu t e d as follows:

1. Each occupation is assigned a weight based on its proportionate e m p l o y m e n t in the selected group of occupations in the base year.

2. These weights are used to compute group averages. E a c h occupation's average (mean) earnings is multiplied by its weight. T h e products are totaled to obtain a group average.

3. The ratio of group averages for 2 consecutive years is computed by dividing the average for the current year by the average for the earlier year. T h e results— expressed as a percent— less 100 is the percent change.

Establishment practices and supplementary w a g e provisions

The B-series tables provide information on establishment practices and supplementary wage provisions for full-time plant and office workers. ’’Plant workers" include working foremen and all nonsupervisory workers (including leadmen and trainees) engaged in nonoffice functions. Cafeteria workers and routemen are excluded f r o m manufacturing, but included in nonmanufacturing industries. "Office workers" include working supervisors and nonsupervisory workers performing clerical or related functions. Administrative, executive, professional, and part-time employees are excluded. Part-time employees are those hired to w o r k a schedule calling regularly for fewer weekly hours than the establishment's schedule for full-time employees in the s a m e general type of work. The determination is based on the employer's distinction between the two groups which m a y take into account not only differences in w o r k schedules but differences in pay and benefits.

M i n i m u m entrance salaries for office workers relate only to the establishments visited. (See table B-l.) Because of the o p t i m u m sampling techniques used and the probability that large establishments are m o r e likely than small establishments to have formal entrance rate's above the subclerical level, the table is m o r e representative of policies in m e d i u m and large establishments.

Shift differential data are limited to full-time plant workers in manufacturing industries. (See table B-2.) This information is presented in terms of (1) establishment policy 3 for total plant w o rker employment, and (2) effective practice for workers employed on the specified shift at the time of the survey. In establishments having varied differentials, the amount applying to a majority is used. In establishments having s o m e late-shift hours paid at normal rates, a differential is recorded only if it applies to a majority of the shift hours. A second (evening) shift ends work at or near midnight. A third (night) shift starts w o r k at or near midnight.

T h e scheduled weekly hours and days of a majority of the first-shift workers in an establishm e n t are tabulated as applying to all full-time plant or office workers of that establishment. (See table B-3.) Scheduled weekly hours and days are those which a majority of full-time employees are expected to w o r k for straight-time or overtime rates.

Paid holidays; paid vacations; and health, insurance, and pension plans are treated statistically as applying to all full-time plant or office workers if a majority of such workers are eligible or m a y eventually qualify for the practices listed. (See tables B-4 through B-6.) S u m s of individual items in tables B - 2 through B - 5 m a y not equal totals because of rounding..

Data on paid holidays are limited to holidays* granted annually on a formal basis, which (1) are provided for in written form, or (2) are established by custom. (See table B-4.) Holidays ordinarily granted are included even though they m a y fall on a nonworkday and the worker is not granted another day off. T h e first part of the paid holidays«table presents the n u m b e r of whole and half holidays actually granted. T h e second part combines tohole and half holidays to show total holiday t i m e . Table B - 4 a reports the incidence of the most 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 .Iiifts 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.

The s u m m a r y of vacation plans is a statistical m e a s u r e of vacation provisions rather than a m e a s u r e of the proportion of full-time workers actually receiving specific benefits. (See table B-5.) Provisions apply to all plant or office workers in an establishment regardless of length of service. P ayments on other than a time basis are converted to a time period; for example, 2 percent of annual earnings are considered equivalent to 1 week's pay. Only basic plans are included. Estimates exclude vacation bonuses, vacation-savings plans, and "extended" or "sabbatical" benefits beyond basic plans. Such provisions are typical in the steel, aluminum, and can industries.

Health, insurance, and pension plans for which the employer pays at least a part of the cost include those (1) underwritten by a c o m mercial insurance c o m p a n y or nonprofit organization, (2) provided through a union fund, or (3) paid directly by the employer out of current operating funds or f r o m a fund set aside for this purpose. (See table B-6.) A n establishment is considered to have such a plan if the majority of employees are covered even though less than a majority participate under the plan because employees are required to contribute toward the cost. Excluded are legally required plans, such as w o r k m e n ' s compensation, social security, and railroad retirement.

Sickness and accident insurance is limited to that type of insurance under which predetermined cash payments are m a d e directly to the insured during temporary illness or accident disability. Information is presented for all such plans to which the employer contributes. However, in N e w Y o r k and N e w Jersey, which have enacted temporary disability insurance laws requiring employer contributions,4 plans are included only if the employer (1) contributes m o r e than is legally required, or (2) provides the employee with benefits which exceed the requirements of the law. Tabulations of paid sick leave plans are limited to formal plans5 which provide full pay or a proportion of the worker's pay during absence f r o m w o r k because of illness. Separate tabulations are presented according to (1) plans which provide full pay and no waiting period, and (2) plans which provide either partial pay or a waiting period. In addition to the presentation of proportions of workers provided sickness and accident insurance or paid sick leave, an unduplicated total is shown of workers w h o receive either or both types of benefits.

Long t;erm disability insurance plans provide payments to totally disabled employees upon the expiration of their paid sick leave and/or sickness and accident insurance, or after a predetermined period of disability (typically 6 months). P a y m e n t s are m a d e until the end of the disability, a m a x i m u m age, or eligibility for retirement benefits. Full or partial payments are almost always reduced by social security, w o r k m e n ' s compensation, and private pensions benefits payable to the disabled employee.

M ajor medical insurance plans protect employees f r o m sickness and injury expenses beyond the coverage of basic hospitalization, medical, and surgical plans. Typical features of major medical plans are (1) a "deductible" (e.g., $50) paid by the insured before benefits begin; (2) a coinsurance feature requiring the insured to pay a portion (e.g., 20 percent) of certain expenses; and (3) stated dollar m a x i m u m benefits (e.g., $ 10,000 a year). Medical insurance provides complete or partial payment of doctors' fees. Dental insurance usually covers fillings, extractions, and X-rays. Excluded are plans which cover only oral surgery or accident damage. Retirement pension plans provide payments for the remainder of the worker's life.

4 The temporary disability laws in California and Rhode Island do not require employer contributions.* An establishment is considered as having a formal plan if it established at least the minimum number o f days 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.

1 The Boston Standard Metropolitan Statistical Area, as defined by the Office of M a n a g e m e n t and Budget through February 1974, consists of Suffolk County, 16 communities in E s s e x County, 34in Middlesex County, 26 in Norfolk County, and 12 in Plymouth County. T h e "workers within scope of study" estimates shown in this table provide a reasonably accurate description of the size andcomposition of the labor force included in the survey. Estimates are not intended, however, for comparison with other employment indexes to m e a s u r e e m p loyment trends or levels since (1) planning of w age surveys requires establishment data compiled considerably in advance of the payroll period studied, and (2) small establishments are excluded f r o m the scope of the survey.

2 The 1967 edition of the Standard Industrial Classification Manual w a s used to classify establishments by industry division.3 Includes all establishments with total e m p loyment at or above the m i n i m u m limitation. All outlets (within the area) of companies in industries such as trade, finance, auto repair service, and

motion picture theaters are considered as 1 establishment.4 Includes executive, professional, part-time, and other workers excluded f r o m the separate plant and office categories.5 Abbreviated to "public utilities" in the A - and B-series tables. Taxicabs and services incidental to water transportation w e r e excluded. Boston's transit system is municipally operated and

is excluded by definition f r o m the scope of the survey.6 Abbreviated to "finance" in the A - and B-series tables.7 Estimate relates to real estate establishments only. W o r k e r s f r o m the entire industry division are represented in the A-series tables, but f r o m the real estate portion only in "all industry"

estimates in the B-series tables.8 Hotels and motels; laundries and other personal services; business services; automobile repair, rental, and parking; motion pictures; nonprofit m e m b e r s h i p organizations (excluding religious

and charitable organizations); and engineering and architectural services.

Industrial composition in manufacturing

O ver one-third of all workers within scope of the survey in the Boston area w e r e employed in manufacturing firms. The following presents the major industry groups and specific industries as a percent of all manufacturing:

Industry group Specific industries

Electrical equipment and C o mmunication equipment___... iisupplies_______________________ 25 Office and computing

Instruments and related m achines____________________ . . . 6products _____ ______________ .. 14 Photographic equipment

Machinery, except electrical ... 14 and supplies________ _____ ... 6Food and kindred products___ 7 Electronic components andFabricated metal products___ .. 6 accessories_________________... 5Printing and publishing_________ 6Transportation equip m e n t___ _ 6

This information is based on estimates of total e m p loyment derived f r o m universe materials compiled before actual survey. Proportions in various industry divisions m a y differ f r o m proportions based on the results of the survey as shown in the appendix table.

L a b o r - m a n a g e m e n t agreement coverage

The following tabulation shows the percent of full-time plant and office workers employed in establishments in which a union contract or contracts covered a majority of the workers in the respective categories, Boston, Mass., August 1975:


All industries__________________Manufacturing______________Nonmanufacturing__________

Public utilities__________Wholesale trade________Retail trade-------------Finance__________________Services_________________

50 1052 847 1191 7648 836 8

40 *

A n establishment is considered to have a contract covering all plant or office workers if a majority of such workers are covered by a labor-management agreement. Therefore, all other plant or office workers are employed in establishments that either do not have labor-management contracts in effect, or have contracts that apply to fewer than half of their plant or office workers. Estimates are not necessarily representative of the extent to which all workers in the area m a y be covered by the provisions of labor-management agreements, because small establishments are excluded and the industrial scope of the survey is limited.

* Less than 0.5 percent.


Appendix B. Occupational Descriptions

The primary purpose of preparing job descriptions for the Bureau's w a g e surveys is to assist its field staff in classifying into appropriate occupations workers w h o are employed under a variety of payroll titles and different w ork arrangements f r o m establishment to establishment and f r o m area to area. This permits the grouping of occupational wage rates representing comparable job content. Because of this emphasis on interestablishment and interarea comparability of occupational content, the Bureau's job descriptions m a y differ significantly f r o m those in use in individual establishments or those prepared for other purposes. In applying these job descriptions, the Bureau's field economists are instructed to exclude working supervisors; apprentices; learners; beginners; trainees; and handicapped, part-time, temporary, and probationary workers.

OFFICE

B I L L E R , M A C H I N E

M a y also keep records as to billings or shipping charges or perform other clerical work incidental to billing operations. F o r w a g e study purposes, billers, machine, are classified by type of machine, as follows:

Biller, machine (billing machine). Uses a special billing machine (combination typing and adding machine) to prepare bills and invoices f r o m customers' purchase orders, internally prepared orders, shipping m e m o r a n d u m s , etc. Usually involves application of predetermined discounts and shipping charges and entry of necessary extensions, which m a y or m a y not be computed on the billing machine, and totals which are automatically accumulated by machine. The operation usually involves a large n u m b e r of carbon copies of the bill being prepared and is often done on a fanfold machine.

Biller, machine (bookkeeping machine). Uses a bookkeeping machine (with or without a typewriter keyboard) to prepare customers' bills as part of the accounts receivable operation. Generally involves the simultaneous entry of figures on customers' ledger record. The machine automatically accumulates figures on a n u m b e r of vertical columns and computes and usually prints automatically the debit or credit balances. Does not involve a knowledge of bookkeeping. W o r k s from uniform and standard types of sales and credit slips.

Determines proper records and distribution of debit and credit items to be used in each phase of the work. M a y prepare consolidated reports, balance sheets, and other records by hand.

Glass B . Keeps a record of one or m o r e phases or sections of a set of records usually requiring little knowledge of basic bookkeeping. Phases or sections include accounts payable, payroll, customers* accounts (not including a simple type of billing described under biller, machine), cost distribution, expense distribution, inventory control, etc. M a y check or assist in preparation of trial balances and prepare control sheets for the accounting department.

M a y w o r k in either a manual or automated accounting system.

The wo r k requires a knowledge of clerical methods and office practices and procedures which relates to the clerical processing and recording of transactions and accounting information. With experience, the worker typically b e c o m e s familiar with the bookkeeping and accounting terms and procedures used in the assigned work, but is not required to have a knowledge of the formal principles of bookkeeping and accounting.

Positions are classified into levels on the basis of the following definitions.

Class A. Under general supervision, performs accounting clerical operations which require the application of experience and judgment, for example, clerically processing complicated or nonrepetitive accounting transactions, selecting a m o n g a substantial variety of prescribed accounting codes and classifications, or tracing transactions though previous accounting actions to determine source of discrepancies. M a y be assisted by one or m o r e class B accounting clerks.

Class B . Under close supervision, following detailed instructions and standardized procedures, performs one or m o r e routine accounting clerical operations, such as posting to ledgers, cards, or worksheets where identification of items and locations of postings are clearly indicated; checking accuracy and completeness of standardized and repetitive records or accounting documents; and coding documents using a few prescribed accounting codes.

C L E R K , F I L E

Revised occupational descriptions for switchboard operator; switchboard operator-receptionist; machine-tool operator, toolroom; and tool and die m a k e r are being introduced this year. T h e y are the result of the Bureau's policy of periodically reviewing area wage survey occupational descriptions in order to take into account technological developments and to clarify descriptions so that they are m o r e readily understood and uniformly interpreted. E ven though the revised descriptions reflect basically the s a m e occupations as previously defined, s o m e reporting changes m a y occur because of the revisions.

The n e w single level description for switchboard operator is not the equivalent of the two levels previously defined.


Class B . Sorts, codes, and files unclassified material by simple (subject matter) headings or partly classified material by finer subheadings. Prepares simple related index and cross-reference aids.

F o r w a g e study purposes, p r o g r a m m e r s are classified as follows:

Class A . W o r k s independently or under only general direction on complex problems which require competence in all phases of p r o g r a m m i n g concepts and practices. Working f r o m diagrams and charts which identify the nature of desired results, m a j o r processing steps to be accomplished, and the relationships between various steps of the problem solving routine; plans the full range of p r o g r a m m i n g actions needed to efficiently utilize the computer system in achieving desired end products.

At this level, p r o g r a m m i n g is difficult because computer equipment m u s t be organized to produce several interrelated but diverse products f r o m n u m e r o u s and diverse data elements. A wide variety and extensive n u m b e r of internal processing actions mu s t occur. This requires such actions as development of c o m m o n operations which can be reused, establishment of linkage points between operations, adjustments to data w h e n p r o g r a m requirements exceed computer storage capacity, and substantial manipulation and resequencing of data elements to f o r m a highly integrated program.

M a y provide functional direction to lower level p r o g r a m m e r s w h o are assigned to assist.

Class B . W o r k s independently or under only general direction on relatively simple programs, or on simple segments of complex programs. P r o g r a m s (or segments) usually process information to produce data in two or three varied sequences or formats. Reports and listings are produced by refining, adapting, arraying, or m a k i n g m inor additions to or deletions f r o m input data which are readily available. While n u m e r o u s records m a y be processed, the data have been refined in prior actions so that the accuracy and sequencing of data can be tested by using a few routine checks. Typically, the p r o g r a m deals with routine record-keeping type operations.

O R

W o r k s on complex p r o g r a m s (as described for class A) under close direction of a higher level p r o g r a m m e r or supervisor. M a y assist higher level p r o g r a m m e r by independently performing less difficult tasks assigned, and performing m o r e difficult tasks under fairly close direction.

M a y guide or instruct lower level p r o g r a m m e r s .

Class C . M a k e s practical applications of p r o g r a m m i n g practices and concepts usually learned in formal training courses. Assignments are designed to develop competence in the application of standard procedures to routine problems. Receives close supervision on n e w aspects of assignments; and w ork is reviewed to verify its accuracy and conformance with required procedures.

C O M P U T E R S Y S T E M S A N A L Y S T , B U S I N E S S

Analyzes business problems to formulate procedures for solving t h e m by use of electronic data processing equipment; Develops a complete description of all specifications needed to enable p r o g r a m m e r s to prepare required digital computer programs. W o r k involves m o s t of the following: Analyzes subject-matter operations to be automated and identifies conditions and criteria required to achieve satisfactory results; specifies n u m b e r and types of records, files, and documents to be used; outlines actions to be performed by personnel and computers in sufficient detail for presentation to m a n a g e m e n t and for p r o g r a m m i n g (typically this involves preparation of w o r k and data flow charts); coordinates the development of test problems and participates in trial runs of n e w and revised systems; and r e c p m m e n d s equipment changes to obtain m o r e effective overall operations. ( N OTE: W o r k e r sperforming both systems analysis and p r o g r a m m i n g should be classified as systems analysts if this is the skill used to determine their pay.)

Does not include employees primarily responsible for the m a n a g e m e n t or supervision of other electronic data processing employees, or systems analysts primarily concerned with scientific or engineering problems.

F o r wage study purposes, systems analysts are classified as follows:

Class A . W o r k s independently or under only general direction on complex problems involving all phases of system analysis. Problems are complex because of diverse sources of input data and multiple-use requirements of output data. (For example, develops an integrated production scheduling, inventory control, cost analysis, and sales analysis record in which every item of each type is automatically processed through the full system of records and appropriate followup actions are initiated by the computer.) Confers with persons concerned to determine the data processing problems and advises subject-matter personnel on the implications of n e w or revised systems of data processing operations. M a k e s recommendations, if needed, for approval of m a j o r systems installations or changes and for obtaining equipment.

M a y provide functional direction to lower level systems analysts w h o are assigned to assist.

Class_B. W o r k s independently or under only general direction on problems that are relatively uncomplicated to analyze, plan, program, and operate. P r o b l e m s are of limited complexity because sources of input data are homogeneous and the output data are closely related. (For example, develops systems for maintaining depositor accounts in a bank, maintaining accounts receivable in a retail establishment, or maintaining inventory accounts in a manufacturing or wholesale establishment.) Confers with persons concerned to determine the data processing problems and advises subject- matter personnel on the implications of the data processing systems to be applied.

O R

W o r k s on a segment of a complex data processing s c h e m e or system, as described for class A. W o r k s independently on routine assignments and receives instruction and guidance on complex assignments. W o r k is reviewed for accuracy of judgment, compliance with instructions, and to insure proper alignment with the overall system.

Class_C. W o r k s under immediate supervision, carrying out analyses as assigned, usually of a single activity. Assignments are designed to develop and expand practical experience in the application of procedures and skills required for systems analysis work. F o r example, m a y assist a higher level systems analyst by preparing the detailed specifications required by p r o g r a m m e r s from information developed by the higher level analyst.

D R A F T E R

Class A. Plans the graphic presentation of complex items having distinctive design features that differ significantly f r o m established drafting precedents. W o r k s in close support with the design originator, and m a y r e c o m m e n d minor design changes. Analyzes the effect of each change on the details of form, function, and positional relationships of components and parts. W o r k s with a m i n i m u m of supervisory assistance. Completed w o r k is reviewed by design originator for consistency with prior engineering determinations. M a y either prepare drawings, or direct their preparation by lower level drafters.

Class B . Performs nonroutine and complex drafting assignments that require the application of m o s t of the standardized drawing techniques regularly used. Duties typically involve such w o r k as: Prepares working drawings of subassemblies \yith irregular shapes, multiple functions, and precise positional relationships between components; prepares architectural drawings for construction of a building including detail drawings of foundations, wall sections, floor plans, and roof. U ses accepted formulas and manuals in making necessary computations to determine quantities of materials to be used, load capacities, strengths, stresses, etc. Receives initial instructions, requirements, and advice f r o m supervisor. Completed w o r k is checked for technical adequacy.

Class C . Prepares detail drawings of single units or parts for engineering, construction, manufacturing, or repair purposes. Types of drawings prepared include isometric projections (depicting three dimensions in accurate scale) and sectional views to clarify positioning of components and convey needed information. Consolidates details f r o m a n u m b e r of sources and adjusts or transposes scale as required. Suggested methods of approach, applicable precedents, and advice on source materials are given with initial assignments. Instructions are less complete w h e n assignments recur. W o r k m a y be spot-checked during progress.

D R A F T E R - T R A C E R

Copies plans and drawings prepared by others by placing tracing cloth or paper over drawings and tracing with pen or pencil. (Does not include tracing limited to plans primarily consisting of straight lines and a large scale not requiring close delineation.)

A N D / O R

Prepares simple or repetitive drawings of easily visualized items. W o r k is closely supervised during progress.
