                       EMPLOYMENT COST INDEX - JUNE 1994
 
     The Employment Cost Index (ECI) increased 0.7 percent before seasonal
adjustment in the 3 months ended in June 1994, the U.S. Department of Labor's
Bureau of Labor Statistics reported today.  The June 1994 ECI level of 122.1
(June 1989=100) was 3.2 percent higher than the index in June 1993.  The ECI
measures changes in compensation costs, including wages, salaries, and employer
costs for employee benefits.
 
Quarterly changes, seasonally adjusted
 
     On a seasonally adjusted basis, the ECI rose 0.9 percent in the March-June
1994 quarter, compared with a 0.7 percent gain in the December 1993-March 1994
quarter. The quarterly increase in wages and salaries was 0.8 percent, about
the same as in the previous quarter.  Benefit costs rose 1.0 percent, also
about the same as in the previous quarter.  (See table A.)

     For private industry workers, wage and salary increases accelerated (0.9
percent, up from 0.5 percent), while benefit cost gains remained at 0.9
percent.  Both the wage and salary and benefit cost increases were, however, in
line with the gains in most recent quarters.
 
     For state and local government workers, wage and salary gains in March-
June 1994 were the same as in December 1993-March 1994 (0.8 percent).  Benefit
cost increases accelerated to 1.3 percent, up from 0.7 percent.
 
Over-the-year changes, unadjusted
 
     Compensation costs (not seasonally adjusted) increased 3.2 percent for the
year ended in June 1994, the same as the gain for the year ended in March 1994.
These increases are the lowest since the series began in 1981.
 
     June 1993-94 compensation cost gains for both private industry and state
and local government workers were similar to March 1993-94 changes.  (See
tables 2 and 3.)  The two groups of workers differed, however, in the patterns
of change for the components of compensation--wages and salaries and benefit
costs.
 
     For state and local governments, wage and salary increases were about the
same in the June 1993-94 period as in March 1993-94, but benefit cost gains
rose slightly, from 3.0 percent to 3.2 percent.  (See tables 5 and 8.)
 
     Wages and salaries for private industry workers rose 3.1 percent in June
1993-94, up from 2.9 percent in March 1993-94.  (See table 6.)  However, the
over-the-year change remained at 2.9 percent when pay in sales occupations,
which is heavily influenced by volatile commission earnings, is excluded in
both periods.
 
     Benefit cost increases in private industry were 3.9 percent in June 1993-
94, down from 4.4 percent in March 1993-94.  The moderation in benefit cost
gains reflected a continuing slowdown in the rates of increase in insurance
costs for health and workers' compensation (which still are rising more rapidly
than other benefit costs) and in state unemployment insurance.
 
     For the year ended June 1994, compensation gains in private industry were
the same in goods-producing industries as in service-producing industries (3.3
percent).  In goods-producing industries, compensation gains ranged from 3.2
percent in both durable and nondurable goods manufacturing to 3.6 percent in
construction.  In service-producing industries, the increases varied from 2.5
percent in  health services to 4.1 percent in finance, insurance, and real
estate.  Compensation cost gains in the latter industry group are influenced by
volatile commission earnings of sales workers.
 
     June 1993-94 compensation cost increases in private industry were higher
for white-collar workers (3.6 percent) than for blue-collar workers (3.0
percent) and service workers (2.5 percent).  Compensation gains for white-
collar occupational groups ranged from 3.3 percent for professional specialty
and technical occupations to 4.4 percent for sales occupations.  Increases for
blue-collar occupations ranged from 2.7 percent for machine operators,
assemblers, and inspectors to 3.4 percent for transportation and material
moving occupations.
 
     Compensation cost increases over the year ended June 1994 were about the
same for union as for nonunion workers (3.3 percent and 3.4 percent,
respectively).

                               EXPLANATORY NOTE
 
           The Employment Cost Index (ECI) is a measure of the change in
      the cost of labor, free from the influence of employment shifts
      among occupations and industries.  The compensation series includes
      changes in wages and salaries and employer costs for employee
      benefits.  The wage and salary series and the benefit cost series
      provide the change for the two components of compensation.
 
           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, and nonproduction bonuses such as
      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 by the ECI are:  Paid leave (vacations,
      holidays, sick leave, and other leave); supplemental pay (premium
      pay for overtime, shift differentials, and nonproduction bonuses
      such as lump-sum payments provided in lieu of wage increases);
      insurance benefits (life, health, and sickness and accident);
      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 legally required benefits such as
      State temporary disability); and other benefits (severance pay and
      supplemental unemployment plans).
 
           The ECI provides data for the civilian economy, which includes
      the total private economy and the public sector--excluding farms,
      households, and the Federal government.  The private industry
      series and the State and local government series provide data for
      the two sectors separately.
 
           Each quarter, straight-time average hourly wage and salary
      rates and benefit cost data (cents-per-hour-worked) are collected
      from a probability sample of about 22,000 occupations within 4,300
      sample establishments in private industry and about 7,000
      occupations within 1,000 sample establishments in State and local
      governments.  Data are collected for the pay period including the
      12th day of the survey months of March, June, September, and
      December.
 
           The sample establishments are classified in industry
      categories based on the 1987 Standard Industrial Classification
      (SIC), as defined by the U.S. Office of Management and Budget.
 
           Within an establishment, specific job categories are selected
      to represent broader occupational definitions.  Since June 1986,
      the jobs have been classified according to definitions used in the
      1980 Census.  Prior to June 1986, they were classified according to
      the 1970 Census.  Differences between the two classification
      systems are slight, as indicated in the article "Introducing new
      weights for the Employment Cost Index," in the June 1985 issue of
      the Monthly Labor Review.
 
           Fixed employment weights are used each quarter to calculate
      the most aggregate indexes--civilian, private, and State and local
      governments.  These fixed weights are also used to derive all of
      the industry and occupation series indexes.  Since June 1986,
      employment counts from the 1980 Census have been used as weights.
      Prior to June 1986, employment counts from the 1970 Census were
      used.
 
           For the series based on bargaining status, region, or area
      size, employment data are not available from the Census.  The
      employment weights are reallocated within these series each
      quarter based on the current ECI sample.  The indexes for these
      series, consequently, are not strictly comparable to those for the
      aggregate, industry, and occupation series.  A fuller explanation
      of the calculation of index numbers appears in an article, "Es 
      timation procedures for the Employment Cost Index," in the May
      1982 issue of the Monthly Labor Review.
 
           Beginning with the March 1990 ECI release, indexes were
      rebased to June 1989=100.  A description of the rebasing is
      included in the article "Employment Cost Index Rebased to June
      1989," in the April 1990 issue of the Monthly Labor Review.
 
           Beginning with the December 1990 ECI release, seasonally
      adjusted data are available for selected ECI series.  Seasonal
      adjustment removes the effects of events that follow a more or less
      regular pattern each year.  These adjustments make nonseasonal
      patterns easier to spot.  ECI series are seasonally adjusted using
      either direct or composite seasonally adjusted estimates.  Industry
      and occupational series, such as construction and service
      occupations, are adjusted directly.  More aggregate series, such as
      civilian or private industry workers, use composite estimates.  The
      composite estimates could be obtained by aggregating either the
      industry or the occupational components, and the results may differ
      depending on which method is used.  The aggregate seasonally
      adjusted ECI series are estimated by aggregating the component
      seasonally adjusted industry series, so they are not necessarily a
      weighted average of the component occupation series.
 
           The costs per hour worked of compensation components, based on
      March 1993 data from the ECI, are published in a separate news
      release titled "Employer Costs for Employee Compensation - March
      1994."  A description of the cost levels is provided in the article
      "Analyzing employers' costs for wages, salaries, and benefits" in
      the October 1987 issue of the Monthly Labor Review.  The cost
      levels, which are published annually in mid-June, are calculated
      with current employment weights, rather than the fixed 1980 Census
      weights used in computing the ECI.  Therefore, year-to-year changes
      in the cost levels will usually differ from those in the ECI.
 
           More detailed information on the ECI is available in several
      sources.  These include an annual bulletin, Employment Cost Indexes
      and Levels, 1975-93, (Bulletin 2434); a chapter in the BLS Handbook
      of Methods (Bulletin 2414), "The Employment Cost Index;" and
      several articles published in the Monthly Labor Review.  The annual
      bulletin is available from the Superintendent of Documents, U.S.
      Government Printing Office, Washington, D.C. 20402, or Bureau of
      Labor Statistics, Publications Sales Center, P.O. Box 2145,
      Chicago, Illinois 60690.  Reprints of the articles plus other
      descriptive pieces and a complete historical listing are available
      upon request.  ECI historical data are also available on data
      diskettes.
