PrefaceThe Bureau of Labor Statistics conducts annual surveys of wage rates and weekly

straight-time hours of work for specified crafts or jobs in the construction, printing, local transit, and local trucking industries. A biennial survey of grocery stores also is included in this program. These studies present the wage rates in effect on July 1, as reported to the Bureau by the appropriate local labor organization officials in each of the 70 cities surveyed.

Preliminary listings of union wage rates and hours for printing trades employees in each of the cities surveyed were issued before this bulletin. Copies of individual city listings 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 bulletin.

This study of printing trades wage rates was conducted in the Bureau's Office of Wages and Industrial Relations. Mary Kay Rieg of the Division of Occupational Wage Structures prepared this bulletin, which provides a comprehensive account of the current study and also includes indexes of wage rates for printing trades employees from 1907-73.

Printing Industry, July 1, 1973

Summary

Average union wage rates for printing trades workers in large cities increased 6.3 percent between July 1, 1972, and July 1, 1973. This increase was smaller than the 8- percent advance reported a year earlier, and was the smallest 1-year rise since 1967-68.

Union wage rates for printing trades workers averaged $6.28 an hour on July 1, 1973. Day-shift workers in commercial lithography shops had the highest average hourly rate ($6.91). This compared with $6.43 for workers in newspaper plants ($6.25 if limited to day- shift rates), and $5.91 for day-shift workers in book and job shops.

Among the nine regions studied separately, the highest average wage rates were recorded in the Middle Atlantic and Great Lakes States. The lowest rates were recorded in the Southwest. Grouped by population, the largest cities (1 million or more) had the top wage levels, and the smallest cities (100,000 to 250,000) had the lowest. Among these size groups, however, considerable overlapping of individual city averages was noted.

Industry characteristics

Type o f establishment. Workers studied were employed in one of three types of printing establishments: (1) Book and job shops, which print books and fill many different types of small printing orders; (2) newspaper shops, which produce large volumes of newsprint rapidly at very low cost per unit; and (3) commercial lithographic shops which mass-produce items of high quality (e.g., catalogs, magazines, etc.) for wide distribution.

Processes. Three major printing processes are in common use today. The oldest and most widely found is the relief or letterpress method, in which the image to be printed is carried on a surface raised above the rest of the printing plate. The image areas are inked, and the printing plate is pressed against paper and removed, leaving the ink image on the paper to dry. In the intaglio, or gravure process, the image to be printed is depressed into the surface of the printing plate. The entire surface of the plate is flooded with ink, then

scraped with a "doctor" blade, a procedure which leaves ink only in the depressed image areas. Image transference takes place when the paper against which the printing plate is pressed drinks up ink from the depressions.

The fastest-growing of the three processes is lithographic printing, in which image transference is accomplished from a plane or flat surface wrapped around a drum, rather than from depressions or elevations on the printing plate. The image area on the plate is chemically treated to accept printing ink; the nonimage area is treated to repel ink. After the plate has been inked, it is pressed against a rubber surface or "blanket" which accepts the image without wearing down the surface of the printing plate as paper does in letterpress printing. It is the blanket that is then used to impress the image onto paper, in an operation called "offset".

Stages o f production. The workers covered by this survey are grouped according to their involvement in one of the three major stages of production. (See chart.)

The image transference or preparatory group takes the original textual and illustrative material to be reproduced and imposes it on a printing medium (e.g., a printing plate) which can be used on a press. These occupations include: hand and machine compositors, photoengravers, stereotypers, electrotypers, lithographic artists, camera operators,1 strippers, and platemakers.

The pressroom group consists of press operators,1 and press assistants and feeders. This group mounts the image carriers on presses, feeds the presses with paper and ink, supervises the quality of the printing done, and performs routine maintenance on the pressroom machinery.

For purposes of this study, job titles that denote sex stereotypes, such as cameramen or pressmen, have been retained in the tables where they refer specifically to labor-management contract terminology. When occupational classifications describe work duties in the generic sence, such as workers operating printing presses, and not as a contract term, they have been changed in the text to eliminate the sex stereotype, e.g., press operators for pressmen and camera operators for cameramen.


The finishing group is made up of bookbinders, bindery workers, and mailers. They bind the printed pages into books and pamphlets, assemble newspapers and magazines, or otherwise prepare printed materials for distribution.

Developments in printing equipment during recent years are producing significant changes in the size and occupational composition of the industry's work force.2 These technological innovations include: Computers which automatically justify lines of text; phototypesetting machines, which enable a specially trained typist to set text in film without the expensive manufacture of metallic type; advanced photographic techniques, which improve color separation— an essential aspect of the reproduction of multicolor subjects; automatic film processing systems; high-speed, electronically controlled printing presses; and bindery machinery which performs many operations formerly done by hand. These and other forms of automation are designed to increase print shop efficiency but may limit employment opportunities in the printing industry, despite continued growth in demand for printed material.

Moreover, automation modifies, and in some cases lowers, skill requirements for printing trades workers. Functions which formerly called for extensive hand crafting— the setting of metallic type, the etching of plates, and the binding of books, to name a few— are largely carried out today by a smaller work force trained in computer programming, keypunching, monitoring of electronic equipment, and the operation of various specialized machines.

Unionization . Four international printing trades unions represent virtually all of the workers studied. Hand compositors, machine operators, and machine tenders belong to the International Typographical Union (ITU ). The Graphic Arts International Union (G AIU), resulting from the September 1972 merger of the Lithographers' and Photoengravers' International Union (LPIU) with the International Brotherhood of Bookbinders (IBB), covers bindery workers, bookbinders, photoengravers, and most craft workers under commercial lithography contracts. Press operators and press assistants outside of commercial lithography, electrotypers, and stereotypers are members of the International Printing and Graphic Communications Union (IPGCU), an organization created in October 1973 from the former International Printing Pressmen and Assistants Union (IPP&AU) and the International Stereotypers' and Electrotypers' Union (ISEU). Most mailers belong to the International Mailers' Union (IM U).

Survey findings

Wage trends. On July 1, 1973, union wage rates for printing trades workers in cities of 100,000 inhabitants or more averaged $6.28 an hour— an advance of 6.3 percent, or 37 cents, over the figure for the preceding year. This percentage increase, down from the 8.0 percent recorded for the year ending July 1, 1972, brought the Bureau's index of straight-time union wage rates for all printing trades to 153.3 (1967=100). The wage index for book and job workers was 155.1, and for newspaper workers it was 152.2. (See table 1.)

July 1, 1973, ended the second consecutive year of declining annual percentage increases for union printing trades workers. The 6.3-percent rate of gain was the lowest since a 5.0-percent increase was reported for the year July 1, 1967-68. (See text table 1.) Since 1963, union wage rates for printing trades workers have advanced at an average annual rate of 5.7 percent. The annual rate of increase averaged 3.6 percent for 1963-68 contrasted with 7.9 percent for the 1968-73 period.

During the July 1972-73 period, about four-fifths of the workers studied received hourly wage rate increases. Approximately one-third of all workers had hourly gains of less than 7 percent. A similar proportion received between 7 and 11 percent. Relatively few increases exceeded 15 percent. (See table 8.)

The average increase in book and job shops was 7.4 percent, compared with 5.6 percent in newspapers and 5.5 percent in commercial lithography shops. (See table 5.) Advances in pay rates over the year ended July 1, 1973, were recorded for a larger percentage of book and job workers (94 percent) than for those in either the newspaper (70 percent) or the commercial lithographic field (76 percent). During this period, Pay Board rollbacks of contract wage rates negotiated prior to July 1, 1972, in the New York newspaper industry resulted in actual wage declines for approximately 9 percent of all newspaper workers covered by the study.

industry averages. Union wage rates for printing trades workers averaged $6.28 an hour on July 1, 1973. Among the three industry branches, day-shift workers in commercial lithographic shops at $6.91 averaged the most, compared with $6.43 for workers in newspaper plants ($6.25 if limited to day-shift rates), and $5.91 for day- shift workers in book and job shops.

2The results of a comprehensive study of technological

and occupational trends in the printing industry are presented in Outlook for Technology and Manpower in Printing and Publishing, BLS Bulletin 1774 (1973).

Year-to-year changes for lithography workers calculated

Varying skill requirements account for some of the difference in the national averages for the three types of printing establishments studied. For example, nearly one-fifth of all book and job workers were concentrated in low-paying, semiskilled bindery worker occupations, performing a number of routine tasks unique to that industry branch. Had the wage rates of these workers been excluded, the July 1973 average for book and job shops would have been raised approximately 50 cents an hour. Newspaper and commercial lithographic operations, on the other hand, show relatively higher averages, partly because they employ larger proportions of skilled journeymen.

Prevalence of nightwork in newspaper shops also boosted the average for that industry branch as noted previously. Over half of the newspaper workers studied

on July 1, 1973, were reported on night shifts. Nationwide, the differential for nightwork in newspaper plants averaged 34 cents an hour. Night-shift differentials were found in all 66 cities with unionized newspaper trades, but the size of such differentials and the proportion of workers receiving them varied by city and trade.

Finally, differences among industry branch averages result from the way workers are distributed among the cities surveyed, as well as from industry pay relationships within cities. Text table 2 illustrates variations in industry pay relationships and employment mix among the six largest cities studied (those having 1 million inhabitants or more). It shows, for example, that pay averages in lithography and newspaper establishments were about the same for the six largest cities combined, compared

with a 7 percent nationwide advantage for lithography. Although lithography was typically the highest paying industry branch, averages for newspaper establishments were reported highest in two of the largest cities— New York and Detroit. Also in New York, where the largest concentration of printing trades workers was found, average wage rates for workers in book and job shops exceeded those for workers in commercial lithography by nearly 9 percent, a marked contrast to their relationships in the other five largest cities, and in the Nation as a whole.

Occupational averages. On the national level, occupational averages in book and job shops ranged from $3.85 per hour for semiskilled bindery workers to $7.16 for photoengravers. The range of daywork rates in newspapers was $5.92 for mailers to $6.85 for photoengravers. In commercial lithography shops, press assistants and feeders averaged the least ($6.04), while lithographic artists recorded the highest average ($7.25), which was also the highest day-shift wage level for any occupation studied.

Regional and c ity averages. Regionally, average wage rates for all printing trades workers ranged from $5.09 per hour in the Southwest to $6.67 in the Middle Atlantic. The Southwest region also accounted for the lowest average in each of the three industry branches— $4.73 in book and job shops, $5.23 in newspaper plants, and $4.96 in commercial lithographic establishments. Middle Atlantic averages for book and job shops ($6.44) and newspapers ($7.00) were highest among the regions, but the Great Lakes region led the Nation in commercial lithography scales ($7.19).

Larger cities tended to have higher wage rates for printing trades employees than smaller cities. Workers averaged $6.89 in cities of 1,000,000 inhabitants or more; $6.18 in cities of 500,000 to 1,000,000; $5.97

in cities of 250,000 to 500,000; and $5.61 in cities of 100,000 to 250,000. However, considerable overlapping of individual city averages among population groupings in the survey was noted. For example, Fresno, a city in the smallest size grouping studied, recorded the second highest city average in the survey ($7.03). On the other hand, wage rates in Houston, one of the six largest cities, averaged less ($5.61) than those in 21 of the 43 cities studied with fewer than 500,000 inhabitants.

Regional and city averages are influenced by various factors, including differences in union wage rates for individual cities and the differences in the occupational composition for a given industry branch among cities. Also, 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 in others. Table 13 presents, by city and industry branch, wage rates for specific occupations, and provides the best intercity comparison at this level.

Hours o f work and supplementary benefits. Weekly hours paid at straight-time rates averaged 35.9 for all printing trades workers in the survey. Straight-time workweeks of 35 hours applied to over two-fifths of the workers, while nearly a third were required to work 37-1/2 hours per week before overtime premium pay became effective. Straight-time hours averaged about 36 per week in book and job shops and newspaper establishments and 35 per week in lithography. (See table 9.)

Contract provisions for paid vacations and employer financed health, welfare, and pension plans applied to most of the workers covered by the survey. Where available, information on these plans concerning the amount employers contributed by trade and area is presented in table 13.

Appendix: Scope and M ethod of Survey

Union wage rates and hours reported in this bulletin were agreed on through collective bargaining between trade unions and employers. The rates are defined as (1) the basic (minimum) wage rates (excluding holiday, vacation, or other benefit payments made regularly 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 for other reasons, are excluded.

Information presented in this bulletin is based on union rates in effect on July 1, 1973, for approximately109.000 printing trades workers in 70 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 survey was designed to reflect union wage rates of printing industry employees in all cities of 100,000 inhabitants or more, excluding Honolulu, and is based on the 1970 Census of Population. All cities that had500.000 inhabitants or more were included, as were most cities w ith’ 250,000 to 500,000 inhabitants. Data

for some cities were weighted to compensate for cities for cities not surveyed. To provide appropriate regional representation each region was considered separately when city weights were assigned.

Average wage rates, designed to show current levels, were based on wage rates reported in each city on July 1, 1973. The wage rates were weighted by the number of union members at the rate in the area. In the book and job and lithography branches, wage rate averages were developed only from the daywork (first shift) rates weighted by union members at these rates; in the newspaper branch, members at nightwork or second shift rates were also included in the averages. Rates for third or "lobster" shifts, however, are excluded from the scope of this survey.

These averages were not designed for precise year-to- year comparisons because of fluctuations in membership in the classifications studied. Average cents-per-hour and percent changes from July 1, 1972 to July 1, 1973, however, were based on comparable quotations for the various job classifications in both periods, and weighted by the memberships reported for the current (1973) survey. The index series, designed for trend purposes, was constructed similarly.
