EDT Kathryn Hoyle (202) 606-5902 Thursday, June 16, 1994 EMPLOYER COSTS FOR EMPLOYEE COMPENSATION - MARCH 1994 Employer costs for employee compensation in the United States (private industry and state and local governments) averaged $18.43 per hour worked in March 1994, the U.S. Department of Labor's Bureau of Labor Statistics reported today. Straight-time wages and salaries (70.9 percent of the costs) averaged $13.06 an hour, and benefit costs (the remaining 29.1 percent) averaged $5.37. Legally required benefits (e.g., social security, workers' compensation, unemployment insurance) averaged $1.59 per hour worked--the largest cost to employers among the benefit categories. Legally required benefits accounted for 8.6 percent of total compensation costs and nearly one-third of all benefit costs. (See table 1.) Other important benefit categories and their average costs per hour worked were: Insurance ($1.38), paid leave ($1.23), retirement and savings (73 cents), and supplemental pay (40 cents), which includes premium pay for overtime, shift pay, nonproduction bonuses, and lump-sum payments provided in lieu of wage increases. Private industry In private industry, March 1994 employer compensation costs averaged $17.08 per hour worked, straight-time wages and salaries, $12.14 per hour, and benefit costs, $4.94 per hour. (See table 5.) Compensation costs varied widely by industry and occupational group, union status, part-time and full- time status, establishment employment size, and geographic region. Highlights for private industry follow: Compensation costs averaged more for workers in goods-producing industries ($20.85 per hour worked) than for those in service-producing industries ($15.82). (See table 10.)

Among service-producing industries, compensation costs ranged from $9.17 in retail trade to $24.58 in transportation and public utilities. March 1994 compensation costs also varied within industries. In health services, for example, where compensation costs averaged $18.01 per hour worked, those costs were $11.06 in nursing homes and $20.65 in hospitals. (See table 15.) Among occupational categories, average compensation costs were higher for white-collar occupations ($20.26) than for blue-collar occupations ($16.92) and service occupations ($8.38). (See table 6.) The level of compensation varied considerably, however, by occupational group within the blue-collar and white-collar categories. Benefits in private industry made up a larger proportion of compensation costs for blue-collar occupations (33.2 percent) than for white-collar occupations (27.3 percent) and service occupations (24.5 percent). (See table 10.) In goods-producing industries, benefits made up 35.3 percent of compensation costs for blue-collar occupations, compared with 30.3 percent for white-collar occupations. The corresponding proportions in service-producing industries were 29.9 percent and 26.7 percent. (See table 11.) March 1994 compensation costs averaged more for union workers ($23.26) in private industry than for nonunion workers ($16.04). (See table 13.) In addition, benefits made up a larger proportion of compensation costs for union workers (36.6 percent) than for nonunion workers (27.1 percent). Union and nonunion cost levels reflect a variety of influences, including coverage by a collective bargaining agreement and variation in distribution of union and nonunion workers among occupations, industries, and establishment size groups. Compensation costs in private industry increased with establishment employment size. (See table 8.) Compensation costs averaged $14.58 per hour worked in establishments of under 100 employees, $15.88 in establishments of 100 to 499 employees, and $23.35 in establishments of 500 or more employees. March 1994 compensation costs for full-time workers were more than double those for part-time workers. (See table 9.) Compensation costs averaged $19.28 per hour worked for full-time workers, compared with $8.80 for part- time workers. Benefit costs made up 29.9 percent of total compensation for full-time workers, and 20.8 percent for part-time workers. Employees in an establishment are classified as full-time or part-time in accordance with the practices of the establishment, rather than on the basis of the number of hours worked per week. Compensation costs by region ranged from $15.05 in the South to $20.03 in the Northeast. The proportion of compensation costs made up of benefits ranged from 27.9 percent in the South to 30.2 percent in the Midwest. (See table 7.) State and local governments In state and local governments, March 1994 employer costs averaged $25.27 per hour worked, straight-time wages and salaries, $17.57, and benefit costs, $7.71. (See table 4.) Compensation costs varied widely by type of work activity and occupational group. Highlights for state and local governments follow: Among work activities, average compensation costs were higher per hour worked in services (e.g., health and educational services) than in public administration ($26.94 and $22.11, respectively). Those two categories account for most state and local government employment. Compensation costs in state and local governments averaged more for white-collar occupations ($28.60) than for blue-collar ($19.42) and service occupations ($17.71). Service occupations include police and firefighters, as well as janitors, cooks, and nursing aides. The relative importance of March 1994 employer costs for employee benefits also varied among occupational categories. Benefits accounted for 28.8 percent of compensation costs for white-collar occupations, compared with 35.7 percent for blue-collar and 36.4 percent for service occupations. Notes Aggregate compensation cost levels in state and local governments should not be compared directly with those in private industry. Differences between the two sectors stem from a number of factors, particularly the variation in work activities and occupational structures. Manufacturing and sales, for example, make up a large part of private industry work activities but are rarely found in state and local governments. White-collar occupations account for two-thirds of the state and local government workforce (largely professional occupations including teachers), compared with one-half in private industry. Differences in compensation cost levels for private industry and state and local governments are reduced as comparisons move from broad worker categories (such as white-collar workers) to more specific occupational groups (such as administrative support including clerical). Occupational categories in some cases contain a substantially different mix of occupations in private industry than in state and local governments. Service occupations in state and local governments (including police and firefighters) had compensation costs that averaged nearly twice as much as those in private industry (where occupations such as waiters and waitresses, cooks, bartenders, and janitors were prevalent)--$17.71 an hour compared with $8.38. An article examining in more detail differences in compensation levels between private industry and state and local governments, "Cost of Employee Compensation in Public and Private Sectors," was in the May 1993 issue of the BLS publication, Monthly Labor Review. The March 1994 levels of employer costs for employee compensation shown in this release were calculated using March 1994 employment patterns. Therefore, changes in cost levels over time reflect both changing rates of compensation and changes in relative employment among occupations and industries with different rates of compensation. A measure of the change in rates of compensation that is not influenced by employment shifts among occupations and industries is provided by the Employment Cost Index (ECI), which is published quarterly by the Bureau of Labor Statistics. EXPLANATORY NOTES Employer costs for employee compensation is a measure of the average cost per employee hour worked to employers for wages and salaries and benefits. Wages and salaries are defined as the hourly straight-time wage rate, or for workers not paid on an hourly basis, straight-time earnings divided by the corresponding hours. Straight-time wage and salary rates are total earnings before payroll deductions, excluding premium pay for overtime and for work on weekends and holidays, shift differentials, nonproduction bonuses, and lump- sum payments provided in lieu of wage increases. Production bonuses, incentive earnings, commission payments, and cost-of-living adjustments are included in straight-time wage and salary rates. Benefits covered are: Paid leave--paid vacations, holidays, sick leave, and other leave; supplemental pay--premium pay for overtime and work on weekends and holidays, shift differentials, nonproduction bonuses, and lump- sum payments provided in lieu of wage increases; insurance benefits--life, health, and sickness and accident insurance; retirement and savings benefits-- pension and other retirement plans and savings and thrift plans; legally required benefits--social security, railroad retirement and supplemental retirement, railroad unemployment insurance, Federal and state unemployment insurance, workers' compensation, and other benefits required by law, such as state temporary disability insurance; and other benefits--severance pay and supplemental unemployment plans. The Survey Employer costs for employee compensation cover all occupations in private industry, excluding farms and households, and state and local governments. These cost levels are published once a year with the payroll period including March 12th as the reference period. The cost levels are based on compensation cost data collected for the Bureau of Labor Statistics Employment Cost Index (ECI), released quarterly. Cost data were collected from the ECI's March 1994 sample which consisted of about 23,000 occupations within 4,600 sample establishments in private industry and 7,000 occupations within 1,000 establishments in state and local governments. The sample establishments are classified in industry categories based on the 1987 Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) system, as defined by the U.S. Office of Management and Budget. Within an establishment, specific job categories are selected to represent broader major occupational groups such as professional specialty and technical occupations. The cost levels are calculated with current employment weights each year. In contrast, the ECI, which measures the change in employer costs for employee compensation, is calculated with fixed employment counts from the 1980 Census to prevent employment shifts among occupations and industries from influencing the changes. Therefore, year-to-year changes in the cost levels will differ from those in the ECI. The March 1994 compensation cost levels were calculated with the March 1994 employment counts from the Bureau of Labor Statistics Current Employment Statistics program benchmarked to the 1993 universe of all private nonfarm establishments. For private industry, in most cases, the employment counts used were total employment estimates for 2-digit major industry groups (such as primary metal manufacturing or food stores) as defined by the SIC system. (For the aerospace industries, employment estimates for 4-digit industries such as aircraft manufacturing were used.) For state and local governments, the employment counts used ranged from those for 3-digit industries such as hospitals to those for major industry divisions, such as public administration. The employment data from these 2-digit, 3-digit, or 4-digit industries were distributed to major occupational groups (such as executives, administrators, and managers or machine operators, assemblers, and inspectors), using the relative importance of the groups as estimated by the ECI sample. Because the ECI establishment sample is completely replaced, industry by industry, on a 4-year cycle, the major occupational group employment counts from the ECI are, on average, 2 to 3 years old. However, comparisons of cost level estimates showed that differences of a few years in the age of the occupation data within industries have a negligible impact on the estimates. More information on the cost levels, including how the costs are calculated, appears in the article "Analyzing employers' costs for wages, salaries, and benefits" in the October 1987 issue of the Monthly Labor Review. The published cost levels for March 1987 also appear in that article. An annual bulletin is issued from the ECI program. The most recent bulletin, Employment Cost Indexes and Levels--1975-93 (Bulletin 2434), provides complete historical data on ECI indexes and levels, and measures of the precision of the two series through June 1993. It also includes an explanation of survey methods and discussion of the published information. The next annual bulletin, to be issued later this year, will include this material as well as complete historical ECI data and measures of precision through June 1994. The Relative Standard Errors Because the data are based on a sample survey, the compensation cost estimates probably differ from the figures that would be obtained from all units covered by the survey. To determine the precision of each cost level estimate, a standard error was calculated. The standard error defines a range (confidence interval) around the cost estimate. The approximate 95-percent confidence interval is the estimate plus or minus twice the standard error. The standard error can also be expressed as a percent of the cost estimate, or the relative standard error. For example, the 95-percent confidence interval for a cost estimate of $10 with a relative standard error of 1.0 percent would be $10.00 plus or minus 2.0 percent (2 times 1.0 percent) or $9.80 to $10.20. We can be 95 percent confident that the "true" cost falls within the confidence interval. The relative standard error is shown with the cost estimates for some series in the appendix. Relative standard errors for all published estimates are available upon request. They also will appear in the 1994 ECI annual bulletin to be published later this year. A fuller explanation of the relative standard errors is provided in the article "Analyzing employers' costs for wages, salaries, and benefits" in the October 1987 issue of the Monthly Labor Review.
