They include incentive pay, cost-of-living adjustments, and hazard pay. Excluded are premium pay for overtime, vacations, and holidays; nonproduction bonuses; and tips. The mean is computed by totaling the pay of all workers and dividing by the number of workers, weighted by hours. 2 In this census division, data were collected between December 2002 and January 2004. The average reference period was July 2003. 3 The relative standard error (RSE) is the standard error expressed as a percent of the estimate. It can be used to calculate a "confidence interval" around a sample estimate. For more information about RSEs, see Technical Note. 4 Employees are classified as working either a full-time or a part-time schedule based on the definition used by each establishment. Union workers are those whose wages are determined through collective bargaining. Wages of time workers are based solely on hourly rate or salary; incentive workers are those whose wages are at least partially based on productivity payments such as piece rates, commissions, and production bonuses. 5 A classification system including about 480 individual occupations is used to cover all workers in the civilian economy. See Technical Note for more information. 6 Classification of establishments into goods-producing and service-producing industries applies to private industry only. 7 Estimates include private establishments employing 1 to 99 workers and State and local government establishments employing 50 to 99 workers. 8 Data are presented for metropolitan and nonmetropolitan area divisions as well as nine census divisions. See Appendix E for a list of States making up the nine census divisions. NOTE: Dashes indicate that no data were reported or that data did not meet publication criteria. 3 TABLE 2.

They include incentive pay, cost-of-living adjustments, and hazard pay. Excluded are premium pay for overtime, vacations, and holidays; nonproduction bonuses; and tips. The mean is computed by totaling the pay of all workers and dividing by the number of workers, weighted by hours. 2 A metropolitan area can be a Metropolitan Statistical Area (MSA) or Consolidated Metropolitan Statistical Area (CMSA) as defined by the Office of Management and Budget, 1994. Nonmetropolitan areas are counties that do not fit the definitions above. 3 In this census division, data were collected between December 2002 and January 2004. The average reference period was July 2003. 4 The relative standard error (RSE) is the standard error expressed as a percent of the estimate. It can be used to calculate a "confidence interval" around a sample estimate.

They include incentive pay, cost-of-living adjustments, and hazard pay. Excluded are premium pay for overtime, vacations, and holidays; nonproduction bonuses; and tips. The mean is computed by totaling the pay of all workers and dividing by the number of workers, weighted by hours. 2 Total includes full-time and part-time workers. Employees are classified as working either a full-time or a part-time schedule based on the definition used by each establishment. Therefore, a worker with a 35-hour-per-week schedule might be considered a full-time employee in one establishment, but classified as part-time in another firm, where a 40-hour week is the minimum full-time schedule. 3 In this census division, data were collected between December 2002 and January 2004. The average reference period was July 2003. 4 A classification system including about 480 individual occupations is used to cover all workers in the civilian economy. For more information, see Technical Note. 5 The relative standard error (RSE) is the standard error expressed as a percent of the estimate. It can be used to calculate a "confidence interval" around a sample estimate. For more information about RSEs, see Technical Note. NOTE: Dashes indicate that no data were reported or that data did not meet publication criteria, and n.e.c. means "not elsewhere classified." Overall occupational groups may include data for categories not shown separately. 11 TABLE 4.

They include incentive pay, cost-of-living adjustments, and hazard pay. Excluded are premium pay for overtime, vacations, and holidays; nonproduction bonuses; and tips. The mean is computed by totaling the pay of all workers and dividing by the number of workers, weighted by hours. 2 Total includes full-time and part-time workers. Employees are classified as working either a full-time or a part-time schedule based on the definition used by each establishment. Therefore, a worker with a 35-hour-per-week schedule might be considered a full-time employee in one establishment, but classified as part-time in another firm, where a 40-hour week is the minimum full-time schedule. 3 In this census division, data were collected between December 2002 and January Part time Mean weekly hours Mean Relative error5 (percent) 16.3 17.1 35.1 28.0 32.9 30.4 26.2 – $34.47 – 9.98 8.65 10.67 10.35 – 2.6 – 6.2 9.9 8.2 6.4 Hourly earnings Mean weekly hours Mean – 17.9 – 38.5 38.8 39.1 39.2 $6.77 – – 8.43 7.20 7.83 8.66 Mean Relative weekly 5 error hours (percent) 5.0 – – 3.1 5.7 7.2 3.0 16.3 – – 18.5 17.1 13.2 18.5 2004. The average reference period was July 2003. 4 A classification system including about 480 individual occupations is used to cover all workers in the civilian economy. For more information, see Technical Note. 5 The relative standard error (RSE) is the standard error expressed as a percent of the estimate. It can be used to calculate a "confidence interval" around a sample estimate. For more information about RSEs, see Technical Note. NOTE: Dashes indicate that no data were reported or that data did not meet publication criteria, and n.e.c. means "not elsewhere classified." Overall occupational groups may include data for categories not shown separately. 18 TABLE 5.

They include incentive pay, cost-of-living adjustments, and hazard pay. Excluded are premium pay for overtime, vacations, and holidays; nonproduction bonuses; and tips. The mean is computed by totaling the pay of all workers and dividing by the number of workers, weighted by hours. 2 Total includes full-time and part-time workers. Employees are classified as working either a full-time or a part-time schedule based on the definition used by each establishment. Therefore, a worker with a 35-hour-per-week schedule might be considered a full-time employee in one establishment, but classified as part-time in another firm, where a 40-hour week is the minimum full-time schedule. 3 In this census division, data were collected between December 2002 and January 2004. The average reference period was July 2003. 4 A classification system including about 480 individual occupations is used to cover all workers in the civilian economy. For more information, see Technical Note. 5 The relative standard error (RSE) is the standard error expressed as a percent of the estimate. It can be used to calculate a "confidence interval" around a sample estimate. For more information about RSEs, see Technical Note. NOTE: Dashes indicate that no data were reported or that data did not meet publication criteria, and n.e.c. means "not elsewhere classified." Overall occupational groups may include data for categories not shown separately. 21 TABLE 6.

For more information, see Technical Note. 2 Each occupation for which data are collected in an establishment is evaluated based on 10 factors, including knowledge, complexity, work environment, and so forth. Points are assigned based on the occupation’s rank within each factor. The points are summed to determine the overall level of the occupation. See the Technical Note for more information. 3 Earnings are the straight-time hourly wages or salaries paid to employees. They include incentive pay, cost-of-living adjustments, and hazard pay. Excluded are premium pay for overtime, vacations, and holidays; nonproduction bonuses; and tips. The mean is computed by totaling the pay of all workers and dividing by the number of workers, State and local government Private industry Mean weekly hours Mean Relative error5 (percent) 26.7 23.1 21.5 32.3 32.2 21.4 $9.60 8.19 9.14 10.42 9.49 11.16 4.7 3.8 14.2 3.7 11.6 7.2 Hourly earnings Mean weekly hours Mean 26.2 20.7 22.8 32.5 31.2 25.1 $13.21 – – – – – Mean Relative weekly 5 error hours (percent) 7.2 – – – – – 29.7 – – – – – weighted by hours. 4 In this census division, data were collected between December 2002 and January 2004. The average reference period was July 2003. 5 The relative standard error (RSE) is the standard error expressed as a percent of the estimate.

The surveys are locality-based and cover establishments in private industry and State and local governments. Bulletins are issued for individual localities when sufficient data meet publication standards. Agriculture, private households, and the Federal Government are excluded from the scope of the survey. Survey scope. In the East North Central Census Division, the NCS studied 4,504 establishments representing approximately 14,573,300 workers within the scope of the survey. Private sector establishments with 1 or more workers are included in the survey. State and local governments with 50 or more workers within a survey area are also included. The number of workers represented by the survey is shown in table A, and the number of establishments is shown in table B. For purposes of this survey, an establishment is an economic unit that produces goods or services, a central administrative office, or an auxiliary unit providing support services to a company. For private industries in this survey, the establishment is usually at a single physical location. For State and local governments, an establishment is defined as all locations of a government entity. In the second stage, the sample of establishments was drawn by first stratifying the sampling frame by ownership and industry. The number of sample establishments allocated to each stratum was approximately proportional to the stratum employment. Each sampled establishment was selected within a stratum with a probability proportional to its employment. Use of this technique means that the larger an establishment’s employment, the greater the establishment’s chance of selection. Weights were applied to each establishment when the data were tabulated so that the establishment represents similar units (by industry and employment size) in the economy that were not selected for data collection. The third stage of sample selection was a probability sample of occupations within a sampled establishment. Sampling frame. The list of establishments from which the survey sample was selected (sampling frame) was developed from the State unemployment insurance reports. The reference month for the public sector is June 1994. Due to the volatility of industries within the private sector, sampling frames were developed using the most recent month of reference available at the time the sample was selected. The reference month for the private sector varied by area. Sample design. The sample for this survey was selected using a three-stage design. The first stage consisted of the selection of areas. The nationwide NCS sample consists of 154 metropolitan and nonmetropolitan areas that represent the Nation’s 326 metropolitan statistical areas and the remaining portions of the 50 States. Metropolitan areas are designated Metropolitan Statistical Areas (MSAs) or Consolidated Metropolitan Statistical Areas (CMSAs), as defined in 1994 by the U.S. Office of Management and Budget. Nonmetropolitan areas are counties that do not fit the metropolitan area definition. The NCS locality areas that contribute to the East North Central Census Division are: Data collection. Collection was the responsibility of field economists, working out of the Bureau of Labor Statistics regional offices, who contacted each establishment surveyed. Collection was conducted between December 2002 and January 2004. The average payroll reference month was July 2003. For each establishment in the survey, the data reflect the establishment’s practices on the day of collection. Identification of the occupations for which wage data were collected was a four-step process: Bloomington-Normal, IL, MSA Bloomington, IN, MSA Chicago-Gary-Kenosha, IL-IN-WI, CMSA 48 1. 2. 3. 4. Sampling errors occur because observations come only from a sample and not from an entire population. The sample used for this survey is one of a number of possible samples of the same size that could have been selected using the sample design. Estimates derived from the different samples would differ from each other. A measure of the variation among these differing estimates is called the standard error or sampling error. It indicates the precision with which an estimate from a particular sample approximates the average result of all possible samples. The relative standard error (RSE) is the standard error divided by the estimate. Tables in this bulletin provide RSE data for indicated series. The relative standard error can be used to calculate a confidence interval around a sample estimate. As an example, suppose the mean hourly earnings for all workers were $17.75 per hour with a relative standard error of 0.9 percent for this estimate. At the 90-percent level, the confidence interval for this estimate is $17.49 to $18.01 ($17.75 x 1.645 x 0.009 = $0.2628, round to $0.26); ($17.75 - .26 = $17.49; $17.75 + .26 = $18.01). If all possible samples were selected to estimate the population value, the interval from each sample would include the true population value approximately 90 percent of the time. Nonsampling errors also affect survey results. These errors can stem from many sources, such as inability to obtain information for some establishments, difficulties with survey definitions, inability of the respondents to provide correct information, or mistakes in recording or coding the data obtained. Although such errors were not specifically measured, efforts were made to minimize nonsampling errors by the extensive training of field economists who gathered survey data by personal visit, computer editing of the data, and detailed data review. Probability-proportional-to-size selection of establishment jobs Classification of jobs into occupations based on the Census of Population system Characterization of jobs as full-time vs. part-time, union vs. nonunion, and time vs. incentive Determination of the level of work of each job For each occupation, wage data were collected for those workers who met all the criteria identified in the last three steps. Special procedures were developed for jobs for which a correct classification or level could not be determined. In step one, the jobs to be sampled were selected at each establishment by the BLS field economist during a personal visit. A complete list of employees was used for sampling, with each selected worker representing a job within the establishment. As with the selection of establishments, the selection of a job was based on probability proportional to its size in the establishment. The greater the number of people working in a job in the establishment, the greater its chance of selection. The second step of the process entailed classifying the selected jobs into occupations based on their duties. The NCS occupational classification system is based on that use in the 1990 Census of Population. A selected job may fall into any one of about 480 occupational classifications, from accountant to wood lathe operator. For cases in which a job’s duties overlapped two or more census classification codes, duties used to set the wage level were used to classify the job. Classification by primary duties was the fallback. In step three, certain other job characteristics of the chosen workers were identified. First, the worker was identified as holding either a full-time or part-time job, based on the establishment’s definition of those terms. Then, the worker was classified as having a time versus incentive job, depending on whether any part of pay was directly based on the actual production of the worker, rather than solely on hours worked. The worker was also identified as being in a union or a nonunion job. The fourth step in the job classification procedure was to determine the work level of each of the establishment's selected jobs, using an occupational leveling process. This process, involving discussions between the BLS field economist and the respondent, ranks and compares all selected establishment occupations using 10 leveling factors. For more information on occupational leveling and an example of how to use the criteria for leveling a job, see appendixes C and D of any published NCS locality bulletin or visit http://www.bls.gov/ncs/ocs/compub.htm on the World Wide Web. The Web site also has a link to the NCS job descriptions. Census area divisions. Data are tabulated by census divisions defined as follows: New England—Connecticut, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Maine, Vermont, and Rhode Island; Middle Atlantic—New Jersey, New York, and Pennsylvania; East North Central—Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, Ohio, and Wisconsin; West North Central— Iowa, Kansas, Minnesota, Missouri, North Dakota, South Dakota, and Nebraska; South Atlantic—Delaware, District of Columbia, Florida, Georgia, Maryland, North Carolina, South Carolina, Virginia, and West Virginia; East South Central—Alabama, Kentucky, Mississippi, and Tennessee; West South Central—Arkansas, Louisiana, Oklahoma, and Texas; Mountain—Montana, Idaho, Wyoming, Colorado, New Mexico, Arizona, Utah, and Nevada; and Pacific—Washington, Oregon, California, Hawaii, and Alaska. Some census divisions include CMSAs and MSAs that cross State lines. In the East North Central Census Division, the Cincinnati CMSA includes parts of Ohio, Kentucky, and Indiana. The St. Louis MSA, which consists of parts of Illinois, and the Minneapolis-St. Paul MSA, which consists of parts of Wisconsin, are located in the West North Central Census Division. Data reliability. The data in these tables are estimates from a scientifically selected probability sample. There are two types of errors possible in an estimate based on a sample survey, sampling and nonsampling. 49 TABLE A.
