[Page 4] PROVISIONS OF THE LABOR LAW. [Here are reprinted sections 31 and 32 of the Labor Law, relating to the powers and duties of the Bureau of Labor Statistics and section 384-f of the Penal Code.] HOW TO FILL OUT THE REPORT. The third page of this report is designed to show exactly how many days each member of the union worked during the quarter and how much his or her total earnings amounted to. The quarter contains 92 days, including Sundays and holidays; excluding the Fourth of July, Labor Day and 13 Sundays there were 77 working days. But holidays should not be deducted if wages were received as usual; in the case of the Saturday half-holiday, no deduction is made from days worked except where half-pay is given, as in the building trades of New York city. (Fourteen Saturdays in the quarter, requiring a deduction of 7 days in addition to Sundays and holidays observed.) Extra time, on the other hand, should be counted in days and added to the number of regular days' work performed, as has been done in the following illustration in the case of men credited with 103 days of employment. Earnings should include an allowance for board, lodging, etc., where workmen (for example) seamen, waiters, cooks) receive same in addition to cash wages. In such cases the report should specify both the cash wage and the allowance (see example below). When wage earners are paid by the piece, the words "piece work" should be written in the proper column and the total earnings entered as usual in the last column. (3) Changes of Wages of Workmen in Brickyards. Was there any general change in the wage rates in your establishment this year?...... If so, on How were changes brought about (demands of employees? strike?) what date?... [If change was made at the opening of the season, use a payroll of corresponding period of last year. Using the same payrolls, distribute the employees in the following grades.] INDEX. The table of contents in the front of this volume contains a general index. In addition, Brick workers, XIII.
