4 Preface This report summarizes the results of a biennial survey of union wage rates straighttime hours of work for grocery store employees, as provided in labor-management agreements. Similar information for specified crafts or jobs in the building construction, printing, local transit, local trucking industries also is available from annual surveys conducted by the Bureau. These studies present wage rates in effect on the first workday in July, as reported to the Bureau by the appropriate local labor organization officials in each of the surveyed cities. Preliminary listings of union wage rates hours for grocery store employees in 70 cities were issued earlier. Copies of these are available from the Bureau of Labor Statistics, Washington, D.C , or from any of its regional offices listed on the inside back cover of this bulletin. The study was conducted in the Bureau s Office of Wages Industrial Relations. Field work for the survey was conducted by the Bureau s Assistant Regional Commissioners. Eric Schilling of the Division of Occupational Wage Structures prepared the analysis in this bulletin.

8 Grocery Stores, 1975 Survey findings Union wage rates for grocery store employees in cities of 100,000 inhabitants or more rose 22.6 cent in the 2-year iod ending 1975,1 compared with a 16.4-cent rise in The middle range of increases fell between cent in -75 between cent in Except for head dairy clerks, all occupational classifications studied had higher average rate increases in the more recent 2-year iod. (See table 1.) Between, 1975, full-time Stockers on day shifts recorded the largest centage increase in wages 27.6 cent or $1.11 hour. However, head meatcutters averaged the largest dollar gain $1.31 hour. As in , the smallest increase cent or 41 cents went to baggers. Basic rates for grocery store employees averaged $5.19 on 1975, were distributed over a relatively broad range. Wage rates were highest for cutters in meat departments lowest for baggers at checkout counters. For the two departments mitting comparison, averages in the meat section were 23 cent above those in groceries $6.24 compared with $5.06. These averages, as well as occupational averages in the survey, were computed solely from top rates for each job found in individual union agreements within the cities studied. For jobs surveyed below the level of department head, most union agreements provided for automatic step increases from an entry rate to a top rate in 2 to 3 years. (See table 6.) For department heads, a single rate usually applied, but where more than one was given in an agreement, the rates were generally determined by the sales volume of the store rather than by automatic progression. Head meatcutters were the highest paid among grocery store occupations in most cities in which they were represented, averaging $7.11 hour. s for head 1Changes since the last survey were calculated using comparable job quotations for the various job classifications weighted by 1975 membership. Thus, the 22.6-cent rise in grocery store wage rates was not obtained by comparing the 1975 overall averages. sonnel of other departments were: $6.13 in the produce grocery departments, $5.78 in the checkout area, $5.59 in the dairy section. Average rates for jobs below department-head level ranged from $6.73 for first meatcutters to $2.87 for baggers. Full-time grocery clerks, numerically the largest occupation, averaged $5.33. Individual wage rates used in computing these occupational averages were widely dissed. (See table 2.) Occupational wages in 1975, as measured by the highest top rate in each city, tended to be consistently high or near the top on the West Coast in the North Central region, as is frequently found in union wage rate surveys conducted by the Bureau. For example, San Francisco-Oakl had the highest top rate for full-time grocery clerks at $6,673 (table 3); two other West Coast cities (Fresno Sacramento) tied for third highest top rate at $6.13, 15 cent above the national average for this occupation. Six of the 10 highest paying cities studied for meatcutters were in the North Central region. Southern cities continued to dominate the lower end of the wage rate array for the heavily populated grocery clerk classification but not for the high-paying meatcutter position. Text table 1 shows that 6 of the 10 lowest paying cities for grocery clerks were in the South, including such large cities as Atlanta, Jacksonville, Houston. Only 2 Southern cities-jacksonville Tampa however, were among the 10 lowest paying cities for journeyman meatcutters in Between 1975, Atlanta, Jackson, San Antonio lifted themselves out of the lowest paying group for meatcutters. Grouped by population size, top rates in cities with 500,000 inhabitants or more tended to be higher than those in smaller cities studied. The median top rate for full-time cashiers in cities with at least one-half million population was $5.35 hour, compared to $4.93 in cities of 250,000 to 500,000 inhabitants, $5.00 in cities of 100,000 to 250,000. Similar relationships held for full-time grocery clerks, journeyman meatcutters, baggers. (See table 2.) As a factor explaining some of the wage rate variations, however, population size seemed to be less impor- 1

When comparisons were limited to the same region, cities in the smallest population group sometimes had higher top rates than those in the larger groups. Such observations are also common in other union wage studies. Occupational pay relationships varied considerably by city. As shown in table 4, top rates for head meatcutters exceeded those of full-time grocery clerks by 58 cent in Houston, but by only 22 cent in Chicago. Wage rate advantages shown for head cashiers over grocery clerks were substantially less, ranging from 1 cent in New York to 11 cent in Detroit. The table further illustrates that, nationally, full-time cashiers produce clerks had approximately the same rates as full-time grocery clerks, while rates for baggers were, on average, T e xt table Median range of top rates1 fo r selected occupations, by size of city, Occupation Cities of 500,000 or more Cities of to Cities of 100,000 to 250,000 Baggers: Median of top rates... $2,700 $2,500 $2,700 Range of top rates... $2.100-$4.693 $2.292-$4.080 $2.200-$5.750 Cashiers (full time): Median of top rates... $5,350 $4,930 $5,000 Range of top rates... $3.925-$6.310 $3.689-$6.380 $4.380-$6.130 Grocery clerks (full time): Median of top rates... $5,322 $5,060 $4,988 Range of top rates... $3.925-$6.673 $3.375-$6.130 $3.900-$6.130 Journeyman meatcutters: Median of top rates... $6,6 $6,350 $6,275 Range of top rates... $5.493-$7,490 $5.650-$7.200 $5.230-$ Based on the highest top union rate in each city surveyed. 2

10 only about half those of grocery clerks. In many cities surveyed, several union agreements covered the same occupation, often with significantly different rates. For example, the citywide spreads between the highest lowest top rates for full-time cashiers, grocery clerks, baggers, meatcutters commonly exceeded 10 cent. (See table 5.) Using only the highest rate provided by each union agreement within a city, the following tabulation illustrates the wide range of these top rates for full-time cashiers: City Number of agreements reported Range of top rates Atlanta... 6 $4.670-$5.326 Boston... 4 $4.325-$4.975 Buffalo $2.200-$4.110 Houston... 4 $3.150-$4,210 M emphis... 7 $3.850-$4.810 Shreveport... 4 $3.220-$5.000 Tampa... 3 $3.375-$4.000 Virtually all workers in the survey were under union contracts providing for premium wage rates after hours. Insurance, pension, vacation plans were available to nearly 98 cent of the union workers. Scope method of study Union wage information in the survey represents only the basic rates (excluding holiday, vacation, or other payments made directly to or credited to the worker each pay iod) agreed upon through collective bargaining between employers unions. It does not reflect rates for apprentices or premium pay for overtime or for work on ends, holidays, or late shifts. Weekly hours reflect the maximum number of straight-time hours before premium rates become effective. The information presented was based on union rates in effect for grocery store employees on Average wage rates relate to top rates in effect at that time; to determine the average for a job, the top rate in each agreement was weighted by the total number of union members reported for the occupation under the agreement. Occupational averages were not designed for precise year-to-year comparisons because of fluctuations in membership in the classifications studied. Average cents--hour cent changes from, to 1975, however, were based on comparable quotations for the various job classifications in both iods, weighted by the memberships reported for the current (1975) survey. Average wage rates were computed for all cities combined but not for individual cities. A listing of union rates by occupation for each of the 70 cities surveyed is presented in table 6. The current survey was designed to reflect union wage rates for grocery store employees in all 152 cities with 100,000 inhabitants or more (excluding Honolulu), based on the 1970 Census of Population. The 70 cities surveyed included all cities that had at least 500,000 inhabitants, most cities having 250,000 to 500,000 inhabitants, a proportionately smaller sample of cities having 100,000 to 250,000 inhabitants. The 70 cities in the survey were appropriately weighted to represent all cities of 100,000 inhabitants or more. The wage information reported applied directly to about 285,000 active union members in the 70 cities actually surveyed, who represented approximately seven-tenths of the 9,000 members estimated to be within the scope of the study. 3

77 U.S. Workers Their Jobs: The Changing Picture This colorful new -page chartbook illustrates some of the important changes affecting the U.S. work force.

That most of the employment growth in the past 50 years has been in industries which produce services rather than goods. That the unemployment rate of black workers has averaged about twice the rate of white workers. That consumer prices have risen almost four times as fast since 1965 as in the previous 10 years.
