Preface

The Bureau of Labor Statistics conducts annual surveys of wage rates and scheduled hours of work for specified crafts or jobs as provided in labor-management agreements in four industries: Building construction, printing, local transit, and local trucking. The studies present the wage rates in effect as of July 1, as reported to the Bureau by the appropriate local labor organizations in the cities included in the survey.

Preliminary listings of union wage rates and hours for printing trades workers in each city were issued within a few months of the reference date for the current survey (July 1, 1969). Copies of these are available from the Bureau of Labor Statistics, Washington, D.C. 20212, or any of its regional offices listed on the inside back cover of this report.

The study was conducted in the Bureau’s Office of Wages and Industrial Relations. This bulletin, which provides a comprehensive account of the current study and includes indexes of wages and hours for 1907-69, was prepared by Thomas C. Mobley in the Division of Occupational Wage Structures.

Union Wages and Hours:

Printing Industry, July 1, 1969

Summary

Union wage rates for printing trades workers in cities with 100,000 inhabitants or more averaged $4.57 an hour on July 1, 1969—6.6 percent above a year earlier. The increase in wage rates during the year was the largest annual advance in 20 years. It brought the Bureau’ s index of union wage rates for printing trades workers to 147.6(1957-59=100). The index for newspaper workers was 145.5 and for workers in book and job shops, 148.8. (See table 1.)

Nearly 97 percent of the 123,000 workers surveyed received wage-rate increases during the 1968-69 period. (See table 7.) Increases ranged from less than 3 percent (for nearly 8 percent of the workers) to 14 percent or more (for 6 percent of the workers). Thirty-four percent of the workers were granted increases of 3 to 6 percent, and a similar proportion received wage adjustments of 6 to 9 percent. On a cents-per-hour basis, the largest clusters of workers in the array of increases were: 20 to 25 cents, 25 to 30 cents, and 30 to 35 cents. (See table 8.)

Wage rates for workers in book and job shops averaged $4.27 an hour on July 1,1969, compared with $4.76 for those in newspaper establishments and $5.10 for workers in lithography (offset printing) plants. Part of these differences result from the way workers are distributed in the three industry branches among the cities surveyed. For example, Chicago, Los Angeles, New York City, and San Francisco— four relatively high- pay cities— constituted 51 percent of the workers in lithography, 38 percent in book and job shops and about 23 percent in newspaper establishments. The relative differences in average

wage rates for the three industry branches within these cities were generally smaller than those for all cities combined.

Regional and city averages of union wage rates by industry branch are presented in tables 10 and 11 for workers covered by collective bargaining agreements within scope of the survey. These averages are influenced not only by differences in union wage rates for individual cities, but also by differences in the occupational composition for a given industry branch among cities. A particular craft may not be covered by a collective bargaining agreement in some cities (and thus is excluded from the survey), whereas all or part of the workers in the craft may be covered in other cities. In addition, certain types of work are more prevalent in some cities than others. Los A n g e l e s book and job shop workers, for e x a mp l e , averaged $4.62 an hour or 11 percent more than those in Detroit, where the a v e r a g e was $4.16. Bindery women, a relatively low-paid job, c o n s t i t u t e d slightly more than 12 percent of the book and job shop workers in Los Angeles and 25 percent in Detroit. The difference in average wage rates for book and job shops in the two cities was reduced to less than 4 percent when bindery women were excluded from the tabulation. Table 13 presents, by city and industry branch, wage rates for specific occupations, and provides the best means of intercity comparison at this level.

Average union hourly wage rates for printing trades workers in book and job shops varied from a low of $2.72 for bindery women to a high of $5.29 for photoengravers. The corresponding range in lithography shops was from $4.35 for press assistants and feeders to $5.37 for artists.

In newspaper establishments, average daywork wage rates ranged from $4.28 an hour for mailers to $5.04 an hour for photoengravers; and for nightwork from $4.59 to $5.29. Relative differences in wage rates for the crafts surveyed varied by city. In book and job shops, for example, wage rates for photoengravers exceeded those of bindery women by 55 percent in San Francisco and 64 percent in Los Angeles, compared with 81 percent in New York City, 97 percent in Detroit, and 105 percent in Chicago.

Weekly work schedules at straight-time rates averaged 36 hours for all printing trades workers on July 1, 1969. (See table 5.) Averages were approximately 36 hours in book and job shops and newspapers plants and 35 hours for over nine-tenths of the lithography workers.

Contract provisions for employer financed health and welfare and/or pension plans applied to most workers surveyed. Where available, information on these plans is presented in table 13, which lists the amount of employer contribution by trade and area.

Scope and Method of SurveyUnion wage rates and hours are those agreed

on through collective bargaining between trade unions and employers, and defined as (1) the basic (minimum) wage rates (excluding holiday, vacation, or other benefit payments regularly made or credited to the worker each pay period) and (2) the maximum schedules of hours at straight-time rates. Rates over the negotiated minimum, which may be paid for special qualifications or other reasons, are not included.

The information presented in this bulletin was based on union rates in effect on July 1, 1969, and covered approximately 123,000 printing trades workers in 69 cities. Data were obtained primarily from local union officials by mail questionnaire; in some instances, Bureau economists visited local union officials to obtain the desired information.

The current survey reflects union wage rates in the printing industry in all cities of 100,000 inhabitants or more, excluding Honolulu, based on the 1960 Census of Population. All cities having 500,000 inhabitants or more were included, as were most cities in the 250,000 to500.000 group. The cities in the 100,000 to250.000 group selected for study were distributed widely throughout the United States. Data for some of the cities included in the study were weighted to compensate for cities not surveyed. To provide appropriate representation in the combination of data, each region was considered separately when city weights were assigned.

Average hourly rates, indicating current levels, were based on wage rates in effect on July 1, 1969. Individual rates were weighted by the number of union members at each rate. These averages are not designed for precise year-to-year comparisons because of fluctuations in membership and in job classifications studied. Average cents-per-hour and percent changes based on comparable quotations for the various occupational classifications in both periods were weighted by the union membership reported for the current (1969) survey. The index series, designed for trend purposes, was similarly constructed.
