Union Wages and Hours:

Building Trades, July 1, 1964

Summary

Wage sca les of unionized building-trades w orkers in cities of 100, 000 population or m ore advanced an average of 15 cents an hour, or 3.7 percent, during the year ending July 1, 1964, according to the 58th annualsurvey of union sca les in the building trades. Seven of every 10 trades showed an advance of 14 to 18 ce n ts1 in their average scale.

Negotiated scale changes, which becam e effective between July 1, 1963, and July 1,1964, resulted in higher wage rates for nine- tenths of the w orkers included in the survey. Increases generally v a r i e d f r o m 10 to 25 cents an hour; such advances w ere appli­cable to nearly tw o-th irds of the building tradesm en. Hourly rates rose 10 to 15 cents for slightly m ore than a fifth of the w orkers; 15 to 20 cents for nearly three-tenths; and 20 to 25 cents for an eighth. Advances of 25 cents or m ore an hour affected a sixth of the building tradesm en and those of less than 10 cents, a twelfth.

Union hourly wage sca les on July 1, 1964, averaged $4.25 for all bu ilding-trades w ork ­ers com bined— $4.46 f o r journeym en and $3.40 for helpers and la b orers . Negotiated sca les varied from $4.10 to $4.70 for half of the journeym en and from $3.10 to $3.70 for a sim ilar proportion of helpers and laborers .

Straight-tim e workweeks averaged 39.3 hours on July 1, 1964, for all building-trades w orkers com bined. A 40-hour w eekly sched­ule was in effect for 7 of every 8 w orkers.

Health and insurance program s financed w holly or in part by em ployers w ere specified in labor-m anagem ent agreem ents affecting fou r-fifths of the w orkers. Pension plans, s im ilar ly financed, w ere provided in a g ree ­ments covering seven-tenths of the building craftsm en.

For ease o f reading in this and subsequent discussions of tabulations, the limits o f the class intervals are designated as 14 to 18 cents, 3 to 4 percent, e t c . , instead of using the more precise terminology, "14 and under 18 cents, 3 and under 4 percent," etc.

Scope and Method of Study

Union sca les are those agreed on through collective bargaining between t r a d e unions and em ployers, and defined as (1) the basic (minimum) wage sca les (excluding holiday, vacation, or other benefit payments regu larly made or credited to the w orker each pay period), and (2) the maximum schedules of hours at straight-tim e rates. Rates in excess of the negotiated minimum, which may be p a i d for specia l qualifications or o t h e r reasons, are not included.

The inform ation presented in this bu lle­tin was based on union sca les in effect on July 1, 1964, a n d covered approxim ately670, 000 journeym en and 165, 000 helpers and laborers in 68 cities with populations of 100, 000 or m ore. Data w ere obtained p r i­m arily from loca l union o ffic ia ls by m ail questionnaire; in s o m e instances, Bureau econom ists visited loca l union o ffic ia ls to obtain the desired inform ation.

The current survey was designed to re flect union w a g e sca les in the building construction industry in all cities of 100, 000 population or m o r e . A ll cities of a half m illion population or m ore w ere included, as w ere m ost cities in the 250, 000—500, 000 group. The cities in the 100, 000—250, 000 group selected for s t u d y w ere distributed w idely throughout the United States. Data for som e cities w ere weighted to com pensate for cities not surveyed. To provide appropriate representation in the com bination of data, e a c h geographic r e g i o n was considered separately when city weights w ere assigned.

Average hourly sca les , designed to show current levels , w ere based on all sca les reported in effect on July 1, 1964. Individual sca les w ere weighted by the number of union m em bers at each rate. These averages are not designed for p rec ise y e a r -to -y ea r com ­parisons because of fluctuations in m em ber­ship a n d in j o b class ifica tion s studied. Average cen ts-p er-h ou r and percent changes w ere based on com parable quotations for the various occupational classifica tion s in both p e r i o d s , weighted by th e m em bership reported in the current (1964) survey. The index se r ie s , designed for trend purposes, was s im ilarly constructed.

Wage Scale Increases, 1963—64

Rate changes in the building industry- r e s u i t p rim arily from labor-m anagem ent negotiations. Many of the union contracts in e ffect on July 1, 1964, w ere negotiated for2 years— a few w ere for a longer period. Contracts of m ore than a yea r 's duration o f t e n contain provisions for p eriod ic in ­crea ses . Although individual contracts p ro ­vided for in creases at various dates, only those scale changes that actually becam e effective between July 1, 1963, and July 1,1964, w ere included in the current study. Some of these sca le revisions w ere provided for in contracts which becam e effective prior to July 1, 1963. A number of agreem entsnegotiated during the year contained p ro v i­sions for rate in creases after July 1, 1964.Such deferred advances w ere excluded from the survey. Thus, the sca le changes p r e ­sented herein do not re fle ct the total wage s c a l e c h a n g e s negotiated in individual contracts during the 12 months covered by the survey.

Scale rev ision s effective d u r i n g the year e n d i n g July 1, 1964, r a i s e d thelevel of union sca les for building-trades w orkers 3.7 percent. This r ise , slightly la rger than that reg istered in the preceding 12-month p e r i o d , advanced the Bureau's index (1957—59=100) to 126.2 (table 1). R e ­flected in this advance w ere sca le im prove­ments of 3.6 percent fo r journeym en and4.3 percent for helpers and laborers (table 3).

Among the 24 journeym en trades, gains varied from 2.7 percent for stonem asons to4.4 percent for m achinists. Advances of 3 to3.5 percent w ere record ed by eight trades,3.5 to 4 percent by a l i k e number, and 4 percent or m ore by the six other crafts surveyed. F or helpers and la b orers , the rate of advance, except for elevator con stru ctors ' helpers (2.9 percent), ranged from 4 percent for m arble setters ' helpers to 5 percent for p lum bers' la b orers . Building la b orers , the largest g r o u p num erically, reg istered an advance of 4.1 percent (table 3).

Between July 1, 1963, and July 1, 1964, union hourly wage sca les for building-trades w orkers in cities of 100, 000 population or m ore advanced 15 cents, on the average, 1 cent m ore than in each of the two preceding 12-month periods. Journeym en, as a group, m oved up 16 cents and helpers and la b orers , 14 cents (table 3).

Cents-per-hour in creases for journeym en trades varied from 12 cents for stonem asons to 20 cents for m achinists. Scales for p la s­terers in creased 19 cents an hour, on the average, w h i l e those f o r boilerm akers, plum bers, and rodm en rose 18 cents. Of the rem aining 18 cra fts, all but 7 reg istered advances of at least 15 cents, with only 1 craft advancing their average less than 14 cents an hour. Among the nine helper and laborer class ifica tion s, the in creases ranged f r o m 10 cents for elevator con stru ctors ' helpers to 17 cents for p la sterers ' la b orers . Hourly wage s c a l e s rose an average of 16 cents for three trades, while building laborers advanced their average 13 cents.

During the year ending July 1, 1964,hourly wage sca les w ere adjusted upward for nine-tenths of the journeym en and a like proportion of helpers and laborers . Scales in creased for at least 7 of every 8 w orkers in 25 of the 33 t r a d e s studied. Scale advances varied from 15 to 20 cents an hour for about three-tenths of the journeym en, 20 to 25 cents for a sixth, and 10 to 15 cents for a fifth. The advance amounted to 25 cents or m ore for 1 of every 6 journeym en. Among helpers and la b orers , hourly sca les in creased 10 to 15 cents for alm ost a third and 15 to 20 cents for a slightly sm aller proportion. Advances of less than 10 cents an hour w ere applicable to about an eighth and of 25 cents or m ore to a seventh (table 5).

The in creases for journeym en re p re ­sented gains of 3 to 4 percent for alm ost three-tenths of the w orkers, 4 to 5 percent for nearly a fifth, 2 to 3 percent for a sixth, and 5 to 6 percent for slightly m ore than a tenth. The gain was 6 percent or m ore for 1 of every 12 journeym en. Among helpers and la b orers , the advance was 4 to 5 percent for three-tenths, 5 to 6 percent for a fifth, and 3 to 4 percent for nearly a sixth. Gains of 6 percent or m ore and of less than 3 percent w ere each reg istered by an eighth of the h e l p e r s and laborers (table 4).

Hourly Wage Scales

S c a l e s for all journeym en com bined averaged $4.46 an hour on July 1, 1964. By trade, average hourly sca les for journeym en varied from $4.04 for paperhangers to $4.73 f o r elevator constructors. A m o n g t h e 22 other journeym en trades studied, 12 had average sca les of $4.50 or m ore an hour, 4 had averages between $4.40 and $4.50, and only 4 averaged le ss than $4.20 an hour.

Hourly w a g e sca les f o r journeym en showed a wide variation, ranging from $2.05 for com position roo fe rs in N orfolk to $5.92 for sprinkler fitters in San F ran cisco . Rates of $5.80 or m ore an hour w ere in effect for som e brick layers in San F ra n cisco , elevator constructors and stru ctu ra l-iron w orkers in Newark and New York City, pipefitters in Oakland, and rodm en in Newark.

Labor-m anagem ent contract rates varied from $4.10 to $4.70 for half of the journey­men, from $4.70 to $5.20 for about a sixth, and from $3.60 to $4.10 for another sixth. An eighth of the journeym en had sca les of at least $5.20 an hour. Hourly wage sca les of $4.70 or m ore w ere stipulated in negotiated agreem ents for m ore than half of the m achin­ists and plum bers, at l e a s t tw o-fifths of the boilerm akers, brick layers , e lectrician s, elevator constructors, p ipefitters, rodmen, sheet-m etal w orkers, a n d stru ctu ra l-iron w orkers; and for three-tenths or m ore of the tile layers , asbestos w ork ers, m arble setters, lathers, m osa ic and terrazzo w ork ­ers , and p la sterers ; and for a tenth or m ore of the w orkers in each of the other trades except g laz iers , painters, and paperhangers. Wage sca les of less than $3.50 an hour w ere negotiated for about 2 percent of the jo u r ­neymen, and in only four trades was the proportion in excess of 8 percent (table 7).

H elpers and la b orers , as a group, had sca les averaging $3.40 an hour and among individual t r a d e c lass ifica tion s, averages varied from $2.67 for com position ro o fe rs ' helpers to $3.75 for p la sterers ' laborers . Scales also averaged in excess of $3.60 an hour for b rick la yers ' tenders, m arble set­ters ' helpers, terrazzo w ork ers ' helpers, and tile la yers ' helpers. Building laborers had an average scale of $3.29 an hour.

Wage rates for helpers and laborers also varied w idely— ranging from $1.40 an hour for com position ro o fe rs ' helpers in Tampa to $5.45 for som e p la sterers ' laborers in New York City. Hourly sca les of $3.10 to $3.70 w ere specified in labor-m anagem ent a gree ­ments for slightly m ore than half of the helpers and la b orers , of $3.70 to $4.20 for about a twelfth, and of $2.60 to $3.10 for a sixth. Rates of $4.20 or m ore an hour w ere negotiated for an eighth of the w orkers, while those of le ss than $2.60 affected a tenth; in only f o u r class ifica tion s, how ever, w ere m ore than 8 percent of the w orkers at such sca les (table 7).

City and Regional A verages

In th e b u i l d i n g industry, l a b o r - management negotiations are generally con ­ducted on a loca lity basis. Among the factors affecting the pay sca les for building-trades w orkers are variations in type and amount of lo ca l building activity, the demand for con ­struction w orkers, the extent of unionization, and the general level of wages in individual loca lities . ‘ These factors are re flected in the relatively wide variations in negotiated sca les for individual crafts within a loca lity as w ell as in the d ifference in rates among cities. F or exam ple, hourly s c a l e s for rodm en ranged from $3.3272 in Jackson to $5.85 in Newark. The r a n g e of rates among the 24 journeym en trades in 6 typical cities are shown in the follow ing tabulation:

The d ifference between the highest and low est scale for helpers and laborers in each of the above cit ies , except New York, was sm aller than that fo r journeym en. The d if­feren ces ranged from 50 cents in Atlanta to $1.35 in New York City.

The city and regional averages p re ­sented in tables 8 and 9 are designed to show current levels of rates for the two groups— journeym en, and helpers and la b or­ers . They do not m easure d ifferences in union sca les of the various crafts a m o n g areas. As p rev iously indicated, sca les for individual t r a d e s d iffer from one city to another. The city averages are influenced not only by d ifferences in rates among cities, but also by d ifferences in the proportion of organized w orkers in the various crafts. For exam ple, a particular craft or class ifica tion m ay not be organized in som e areas or may be organized less intensively in som e areas than in others. In addition, certain types of work are found in som e areas but not in others, or they are found to a greater extent in som e areas than in others. These d iffe r ­ences are re flected in the weighting of indi­vidual rates by the number of union m em bers

at the rate. T herefore , even though rates for all individual crafts in two areas are identical, the average for all crafts com bined in each of the areas m ay d iffer.

On a city basis, average hourly scales varied w idely among the cities surveyed for both journeym en, and helpers and laborers . No effective sca les w ere reported for helpers and laborers in Charlotte. H ourly sca les for journeym en averaged highest ($5.26) in New York City and low est ($3.56) in Charlotte. Scales averaged $4.75 or m ore an hour in 4 other c ities , $4.50 to $4.75 in 10 cities, from $4.25 to $4.50 in 15 c ities , from $4 to $4.25 in 21 c ities , and from $3.75 to $4 in 11 cities (table 8).

F or helpers and la b orers , average hourly sca les varied from $1.68 in Jacksonville to $4.58 in New York City. They averaged $3.50 an hour or m ore in 14 other cities and less than $2.25 an hour in 8 others. A verages varied from $3.25 to $3.50 in 14 cit ies , from $3 to $3.25 in 11 c ities , from $2.75 to $3 in 8 cities , and from $2.25 to $2.50 in 7 cities (table 8).

When the 68 surveyed cities w ere grouped accord ing to population size , average hourly sca les for u n i o n building-trades w orkers varied by size of city. In the group o f cities with a m illion population or m ore , sca les averaged $4.83 for journeym en and $3.86 for helpers and la b orers— 67 and 77 cents, respective ly , higher than in the sm allest size population group studied (100, 000 to 250, 000).

A verage hourly wage s c a l e s for the individual cities within each population group showed a wide variation for both journeym en and for helpers and laborers . The range of average sca les was g r e a t e r for helpers and laborers than for journeym en in each grouping. The spread between the highest and low est city averages was greatest in the g r o u p of cities with 250,000 to 500,000 population— $1.56 for journeym en and $2.34 for helpers and laborers . The spread was narrow est for journeym en (94 cents) in the two largest size population groups— a m illion or m ore and 500, 000 to a m illion— and for helpers and la b orers ($1.63) in cities of a m illion population or m ore.

An overlapping of average sca les existed among the different size groups. F or exam ­ple, the average sca le for journeym en in Trenton, in the group of cities with 100, 000

to 250, 000, the sm allest size studied, was exceeded by only two cities in the larger size groups.

On a regional basis, average hourly sca les for construction t r a d e s w orkers ranged from $3.58 in the Southeast to $4.78 in the heavily industrialized Middle Atlantic. Hourly sca les averaged $4.42 in the P a cific , $4.20 in the Great Lakes, and $3.63 to $4.10 in the other regions (table 9).

Journeym en s c a l e s averaged highest ($4.97) in the Middle Atlantic States and low est ($3.83) in the Southeast. A ll jou rn ey­men trades in the Middle Atlantic region averaged at least $3.84 an hour and 20 trades had sca les averaging in excess of $4.50 an hour. In the- Southeast, four crafts averaged less than $3.50 an hour and only s ix averaged in excess of $4, the highest of which was $4.25 for boilerm ak ers. A verages in excess of $4.50 an hour w ere also reg istered by 16 trades in the P a cific region, 14 in New England, 9 in the Great Lakes region, and at least 2 crafts in the other regions except the Southwest.

F or the nine helper and laborer c la s s if i­cations com bined, average wage rates varied from $2.16 in the Southeast to $4.04 in the Middle Atlantic region. In five regions, all helper and laborer class ifica tion s averaged at least $3 an hour. A verages in excess of $3.50 an hour w ere reg istered by eight helper and laborer class ifica tion s in the Middle Atlantic, five in the P a cific region, and four and three, respective ly , in the Great Lakes and New England regions.

Standard Workweek
