Preface

This bulletin presents estimates of employment, average hourly and weekly earnings, and weekly hours of work of nonsupervisory employees in food. The survey was part of a broad program of studies initiated by the U. S. Department of Labor for continuing appraisal of Fed­eral minimum-wage legislation. The June 1961 findings will be used as a basis for measuring changes in employ­ment, earnings, and hours of work to determine the eco­nomic effects resulting from the 1961 amendments to the Fair Labor Standards Act, which became effective in Sep­tember 1961.

The statistics were obtained from a nationwide survey of retail trade (excluding eating and drinking places) conducted by the Bureau of Labor Statistics for a June 1961 payroll period. Data are provided separately for men and women; the Northeast, South, North Central, and West regions of the United States; metropolitan and nonmetropolitan areas; and for retail enterprises and es­tablishments by their annual volume of sales. Appendix A provides technical information on the scope and method of the survey, as well as definitions of terms. A copy of the questionnaire used in the survey is shown in appendix B.

The Wage and Hour and Public Contracts Divi­sions participated in the planning of the survey and pro­vided the necessary funds. The bulletin was prepared in the Bureau’ s Division of Wages and Industrial Rela­tions under the general supervision of Herbert Schaffer. Norman J. Samuels directed the survey and Samuel E. Cohen and Theodore J. Golonka developed the statistical and sampling techniques.

Appendix A: Scope and Method of Survey

Scope of Survey

This bulletin relates to those retail establishments which were classified, accord­ing to the 1957 edition of the Standard Industrial Classification Manual, as part of the food group (SIC 54). Stores within this group were further identified as grocery stores (SIC 541). The major group includes retail stores primarily engaged in selling food for home prep­aration and consumption and covers grocery stores, meat and fish markets, fruit and vege­table markets, confectioneries, dairy products stores, bakeries, and egg and poultry dealers. Establishments primarily engaged in processing and distributing milk and cream are clas­sified in manufacturing.

Grocery stores are commonly known as supermarkets, food markets, and delica­tessen stores and are primarily engaged in the retail sale of all sorts of packaged and fresh foods.

The 50 States and the District of Columbia are covered. The data reflect the earnings and hours of work of nonsupervisory employees for a representative payroll period ending nearest June 15, 1961.

Sample Design

The sample was designed to yield national and regional estimates for each of the major kinds of business groups in retail trade and for some specific lines of retail busi­ness. A stratified sample design was used with variable sampling ratios depending on the kind of business and employment size of the sample unit. For example, the sample size for lines of business shown separately was proportionately larger than for those not pub­lished and the probability of selection increased with the employment size of the sample unit.

The following tabulation shows the number of units included in the sample of the food group and in the grocery stores for which separate data are published:

Numb e rKind of business of units

Food group _________________________ 3, 698Grocery stores _________________ 3,063

Establishment samples were obtained from three different sources: (1) State Unem­ployment Insurance listings furnished by employer reporting units with eight or more em­ployees. (2) The large chainstore enterprises provided current lists of retail stores and auxiliary units from which a sample of such units was selected. It was necessary to obtain these lists from the large chainstore enterprises because State Unemployment Insurance listings frequently provide data on a statewide or county basis for such companies rather than on an individual establishment basis. (3) The Bureau of the Census sample used in con­junction with its Monthly Survey of Retail Sales covering single-unit retail stores with fewer than eight employees. The Census coverage of small units was necessary to supplement the Bureau's universe list for retail trade, since State Unemployment Insurance laws in many States do not cover employers with fewer than four employees.

Method of Collection

The majority of the establishments included in the sample were solicited for infor­mation by mail. The largest units were visited in person by field economists of the Bureau of Labor Statistics, as were the smallest units by the Bureau of the Census enumerators acting as agents for the BLS. Personal visits were also made to a sample of the nonre­spondents to the mail questionnaire.

Estimating Procedure

Data collected for each sampling unit were weighted in accordance with the proba­bility of selecting that unit. For example, where 1 store out of 10 was selected from an industry-size group, data for that store were considered as representative of the 10 stores in the group. Thus, each segment of the retail trade industry was given its appropriate weight in the total, regardless of the disproportionate coverage of large and small stores.

No assumption has been made that the wage structures of the units not responding to the mail questionnaire were similar to those of the units responding. To minimize the bias resulting from nonresponse, data obtained by personal visits from a sample of nonrespond­ents were weighted to represent all other nonrespondents in similar industry-size groups. To compensate for schedules with unusable data, their weights were assigned to usable schedules of the same industry-size group and from the same or related area.

All estimated totals derived from the weighting process were further adjusted to the employment levels for June 1961, as reported in the Bureau of Labor Statistics monthly employment series. The published estimates in this report are, thus, consistent with the production worker employment shown in the monthly series. Employment estimates for individual industry groups, which the Bureau does not publish monthly, were prepared es­pecially for purposes of this survey. Current regional estimates, which could not be pre­pared from the monthly series, were based on regional distributions from the most recent Census of Business, prepared by the Bureau of the Census.

The adjustment of the survey totals to the predesignated totals was confined, for the most part, to that segment of the survey for which the sample units were obtained from State Unemployment Insurance listings. The lists generally were prepared prior to the time of the survey and consequently do not account for units opened or closed after the date of the lists. In the Census and the large chainstore enterprise samples, the best unbiased estimates of totals were presumed to be the weighted-up sample totals, since there was no apparent problem of unrepresented business births in these groups.

Criteria for Publication of Estimates

The results of this survey differ from those that would have been obtained by a complete canvass of all retail operations, since the survey was conducted on a sample basis. These differences may be substantial in those instances where the sample was small. It has not been possible, therefore, to present data for all cases. No earnings distributions are shown for groupings of fewer than 50 stores, except for department stores where the sample included most of the large stores in the universe.

Definitions of Terms

Nonsupervisory employees include all full-time, part-time, seasonal, and casual employees below the supervisory level, such as salespersons, shipping, receiving, and stock clerks, laborers, warehousemen, caretakers, office clerks, driver-salesmen, deliverymen, installation and repairmen, elevator operators, porters, janitors, food service employees, and working supervisors.

Establishment is generally defined as a single physical location where business is conducted. In the case of two separate business entities transacting business at a single physical location (for example, a leased shoe department in a department store), each was treated as a separate establishment. On the other hand, a drug store which also operated a food counter was treated as a single establishment.

Enterprise. Establishments were considered to be part of a larger enterprise if owned by a company operating other establishments engaged in the same general field of business and under its general direction or control. The terms "enterprise" and "establish­ment" were used synonymously for single-unit companies.

Annual volume of sales excludes excise taxes at the retail level.

Earnings data relate to straight-time earnings and exclude premium pay for over­time and for work on weekends, holidays, and late shifts. Commission and bonus earn­ings and special sales bonuses, such as "P. M. !s " and "stim s" paid quarterly or oftener, are included.

Individual average hourly earnings for employees not paid by the hour (e. g. , salary, commissions) were obtained by dividing individual earnings reported by the number of hours worked during the corresponding period.

Individual weekly earnings were obtained by multiplying the individual average hourly earnings by the number of hours worked during a single week in June 1961.

Group average hourly earnings published in this report were obtained by dividing total individual earnings by total individual weekly hours worked.

Group average weekly earnings were obtained by dividing the sum of the individual weekly earnings by the number of employees represented in the group total.

Regions used in this study include the following States: Northeast— Connecticut,Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, and Vermont; South— Alabama, Arkansas, Delaware, District of Columbia, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maryland, Mississippi, North Carolina, Oklahoma, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Virginia, and West Virginia; North Central— Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, North Dakota, Ohio, South Dakota, and Wisconsin; and West— Alaska, Arizona, California, Colorado, Hawaii, Idaho, Montana, Nevada, New Mexico, Oregon, Utah, Washington, and Wyoming.

Metropolitan areas as used in this report refers to those cities and county areas defined by the Bureau of the Budget as "Standard Metropolitan Statistical Areas. " Metro­politan areas include those counties containing at least one central city of 50, 000 population and those counties around such cities which are metropolitan in character and economically and socially integrated with the county containing the central city. For a more detailed description, see Standard Metropolitan Statistical Areas, prepared by the Bureau of the Budget, 1961.

This study is designed to provide information on hourly earnings and weekly hours of work for both male and female nonsupervisory employees and working supervisors for a payroll period ending nearest June 15, 1961. The number of employees in each establishment for which earnings and hours data are reported should corre­spond with the number of nonsupervisory employees shown in item 3(c) on page 1. The information requested should be reported separately for each establishment and the establishment identified. If the establishment is a Department, Drug, or Variety Store and employs food counter, cafeteria, or restaurant workers, information for such workers should be entered only on the blue supplement provided.

Report earnings and hours separately for each employee unless these data are identical for two or more em­ployees. Do not report aggregate earnings and hours for several workers. For convenience of reporting for employees paid on other than an hourly basis, columns 5 through 8 are provided. Data will not, however, be published separately by various methods of pay. Instructions and examples for reporting the necessary data in each column are listed below.

I N S T R U C T I O N S

Column (1)— Indicate whether the employee is male (M) or female (F ).C o m p l e t e c o lu m n s 1 , 2 ,

and 3 fo r a ll n o n s u p e r v i s o r y e m p l o y e e s c o v e r e d b y th is r e p o r t .

Column (2)— Use a separate line for each employee and enter " I , ” unless two or more em ployees o f the same sex work the same number of hours during the se lected week, and receive identical'hourly or salary rates (see example I). Data are to be reported individually for each employee whose earnings are based entirely or in part on com m issions or bonuses (see examples 3 , 4, and 5).

Column (3)— Enter the number of hours worked during the week of June 11 to June 17, 1961. Include hours paid for sick leave, holidays, vacations, etc.

Column (4)— Enter the base (straight-time) hourly rate, exclusive of premium pay for overtime. This column may a lso be used to report earnings of employees paid on other than an hourly basis if average straight- time hourly earnings are available.

Column (5)— Enter the straight-time earnings for the salary period (weekly, biweekly, monthly, or semimonthly) ending nearest June 15, 1961. Include straight-time pay for overtime, but exclude overtime premium. Do not include "draws" against commission as salary.

Column (6)— Enter the number of hours worked during the salary period. Include hours paid for sick leave, holidays, vacations, etc.

Column (7)— Enter the total com m ission and/or bonus earnings, including "PM’ s,* "Stim s," or any specia l bonuses based on sales paid quarterly or oftener by the store. These earnings are to be reported for the com m ission or bonus period ending nearest June 15, 1961. If the com m issions earned during that pay per­iod are not representative of normal commission earnings, a longer period may be used. If store em ployees receive both commission and bonus payments for an identical period of time, report the combined figure (see example 4). If bonus payments cover a period longer than the com m ission period, add only the pro­rated amount o f the bonus to the commission earnings that correspond to the commission period (see example 5). For employees paid an hourly rate or salary in addition to com m issions or bonuses, it is a lso necessary to complete column 4, or columns 5 and 6 (see examples 4 and 5).

Column (8 )— Enter the number o f hours worked during the commission or bonus period. (The hours should refer to the total hours worked during the period and not necessarily only to those hours during which com ­m issions or bonuses were earned.)
