Ships in operating status normally function 2k hours per day, seven days a week. Crew members may be on watch, on routine assignments, standing by, or on call to meet flexible schedules and unusual con- tingencies. When employed, seamen work longer hours and receive more premium pay than most shoreside workers. A seaman lives on the job. He has stipulated working hours the same as most workers; however, when a ship is at sea, he is one of a limited number of available men required for extra work. He is often required to perform supplementary duties under varying circumstances. Since this report shows the pay seamen receive for working supple- mentary hours, as well as time spent performing additional tasks during their regular hours, it is entitled Seafaring Premium Pay . The material contained in this report has been compiled from an extensive file of union agreements submitted voluntarily by both management and labor organizations and maintained in the Division of Labor Data, Office of Statistics, Maritime Administration, by Mrs. Esther M. Love, assisted by Mrs. Dorothy C. Davis, under the direction of Captain M. K. 1 Sullivan. 1 - INTRODUCTION Control of seafaring labor costs is an essential factor in the successful management of merchant ships and an important component in the development and maintenance of the United States privately operated merchant fleet. Premium pay constitutes a substantial proportion of shipboard labor costs. Many of the premium pay provisions listed in this report were originally introduced into the labor agreements to assure seamen a desirable living standard and act as a penalty when certain standards were overlooked or disregarded by management. In the majority of shoreside industries, overtime pay is a term generally applied to all hours of work in excess of eight per day and 40 per week. In the seafaring industry it does not accurately reflect many cash payments received by seamen in addition to their base wages. Collective bargaining agreements contain work rule provisions prescribing rates payable for a wide variety of tasks for personnel in various pay categories or under different time situations. Contrary to the general practice in shoreside industries of paying time and one-half for overtime as required by law, seafaring overtime rates for pre- scribed work are negotiated and quoted on a dollar-and-cents basis, and vary from less than the straight time hourly rate to double the straight time hourly rate. For the majority of seamen, a complicated premium pay structure prevails. The penalty rate pertains to different types of work; obnoxious assignments or duties performed during regular working hours and/or week-end watches when a ship is at sea. The overtime rate applies to additional hours in excess of the regular work day or work week. The penalty pay provision was incorporated in the labor contracts by a majority of the unions in 1951. at the same time they negotiated for a reduction in working hours. Since the normal shipboard work week at sea for watchstanders is $6 hours, these contracts stipulated that watchstanders be compensated at the penalty rate for standing all their normal watches on Saturdays and Sundays. Both day- workers and watchstanders earn penalty pay for specific duties when per- formed within their eight hour daily spread. All contracts stipulate that hours worked at sea and in port in excess of eight hours per day and for hours worked in port on Saturdays and Sundays, shall be payable at the overtime rate, l/ l/ For a comparison of overtime and penalty time hours worked for selec- tive ratings, see Chart 4, Earnings and Employment of Seamen on U. S. Flag Ships, Bulletin No. 12 38, published November 1958, by the U. S. Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics. These penalty rates continued until 1955 when the Sailors' Unicn of the Pacific (SUP) nepotiated a new wage pattern. They incorporated penalty pay in the monthly base wages. In determining the new wage pattern, the average penalty pay of $96 and $kk normally earned per month by the watch- standers and dayworkers, respectively, was added to the monthly base wages and supplemented by a $25 wage increase across the board. Thus increases of $121 and $69 were established for these respective licensed and unli- censed seamen. The Marine Cooks and Stewards Union (MCS), following the principles of the SUP, incorporated into their base wages the average pay earned for week ends at sea, plus certain other wage adjustments, plus $25. All other AFL-CIO seafaring agreements still provide premium pay for all hours over ^0 per week, and all unions stipulate that watch- standers at sea work 56 hours per week. In foreign ports, seamen are often called upon for extra duties but, under certain circumstances, work normally performed by seamen may be assigned to shoreside maritime workers. In "home" ports, longshoremen, shipyard personnel, shoreside maintenance gangs, watchmen or relief union members may complete a diversed number of shipboard jobs. Nevertheless, the actual and potential work assignments and overtime hours covered by pre- mium pay are substantially above the eight hours per day and U0 hours per week stipulated in many collective bargaining agreements as normal working hours. In addition to the overtime and penalty rate, all union agreements contain supplementary pay provisions. These special rates are negotiated and paid to seamen when performing specified duties and when certain conditions warrant. Some of these provisions are payments for division of work, extra meals served, hazardous or obnoxious cargo on board, tank cleaning, et cetera. Tables 6 to 16 show the comparability of premium pay provisions based on the analysis of fifteen major seafaring labor agreements. All data included is effective as of January 1, 1963. 3 - SUMMARY An outstanding characteristic of the seafaring industry is the wage struc- ture. In addition to basic wages, seamen manning United States flag, deep- sea ships have a substantial earning capacity in the premium pay category. Overtime and penalty overtime constitute a major part of shipboard premium pay costs. Seamen also receive supplementary payments for specific tasks or situations which include special rates of pay for hazardous or obnoxious work, and living facilities and conveniences not in compliance with stip- ulations in the collective bargaining agreements. Basic wages and premium pay rates have risen rapidly during the past 15 years. In 19^7 the basic wage for an able-bodied seaman was $182.85 per month; effective June 16, 1962, this rating on the Atlantic and Gulf Coasts received $392.58 per month, an increase of 11^.7$. During the same period the overtime rate for an able-bodied seaman was $1.06 per hour and in 1962, the rate was $2.^2 per hour, an increase of 128.3$. On the Pacific Coast the basic wage for an able-bodied seaman in 1962 was $521.50 per month and the overtime rate $3.25 per hour, an increase of 185.2$ and 206.6$, respectively. The difference in basic wages between the East and West Coasts relates to the wage pattern negotiated in 1955 by the Sailors' Union of the Pacific. Premium Pay Costs Basic wages are established by collective bargaining for a specific period and for all practical purposes remain a fixed cost item for the term of the agreement. Premium pay rates are also negotiated, but pay- ments fluctuate with the number of premium hours worked. These costs for the calendar year 1961 varied from an average of 38.*+7$ to ^2.91$ of basic wages for subsidized "Class B" cargo ships and for subsidized passenger ships from a low of 25.51$ to a high of 101.13$ l/. The premium pay for all passenger ships for the year 1961 averaged 52.38$. The 1962 national average for all dry cargo ships was slightly over hjt> of basic wages. Increased labor costs during 19^7-1962 period can best be reflected by examining two principal labor cost items, (a) basic wages, (b) premium pay rates. By using the able-bodied seaman's 2/ rating as a yardstick, the following comparison is shown. l/ The high of 101.13$ was established during cruise service. 2/ Since an AB is a watchstander, he works 56 hours while a ship is at sea and kO hours in port. He normally earns an average of 3.3 premium hours per day. Date Monthly- Base Wages Hourly Overtime Rate ll Ships Operating from lgg Jan.

During 1951-52, the average was 44^ for the East Coast and 52"o for the West Coast. In 1962 the average was 44$ for the East Coast and 40.6<£ for the West Coast. The lower premium pay factor on the West Coast is as a result of the 1955 negotiations which included certain premium pay in basic wages. The five basic rea- sons for the high rate of increase in premium pay and base wages during this period are: 1. Seafaring unions negotiated greater increases in base wages. Prior to 19*4-0, wage increases were small. During World War II, three emergency increases were granted. Since October 1945 wages have risen rapidly. 2. Straight time hours of work when ships are in port were reduced from 44 to 40 hours per week. 3. Straight time hours of work when ships are at sea were reduced from 56 to 40 hours per week. 4. Seafaring unions negotiated stipulations in their collective bargaining agreements designating many work items at premium rates of Pay. 5. Changes in ship design are responsible for increases in manning scales, particularly in the engine department where improvements neces- sitate increased maintenance requiring increased personnel. The estimated average earned income for an able-bodied seaman when employed in 1947 on ships operating from the East Coast was $246.85 and the West Coast average was $261.48. In 1962 on the East Coast operated ships it had increased to $565.31 and on the West Coast to $733.23. 2/ In addition to the premium rate shown, there are other special rates paid - see Table 13 . - 5 - GLOSSARY OF TERMS Base wages - The negotiated minimum monthly rate applicable to each category of seaman. Watch stander - Ratings required to be on watch and whose normal working hours while at sea are 56 hours per week. Dayworker - Ratings who normally work 1+0 hours per week from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. , Monday through Friday. Premium pay includes: Overtime pay - Paid to dayworkers at sea and in port when performing work in excess of eight hours per day and l±0 hours per week, and all work performed on Saturdays, Sundays and holidays. Paid to watchstanders when performing work in excess of eight hours per day and/or in excess of their regular watches, and for work performed on holi- days and for all work performed on Saturdays and Sundays in port. Penalty pay - (Occasionally referred to as penalty overtime. ) Paid to watchstanders for standing all normal watches on Saturdays and Sundays at sea. Members of the National Maritime Union and Seafarers' International Union receive overtime pay for their normal watches on Saturdays and Sundays at sea. It is also paid to dayworkers and watchstanders when they perform certain duties within their eight hour spread. Supplementary pay - Payments for specific tasks or for specific situa- tions. Some examples of these are: Division of work payments are provided for when, in a particular situation, a ship sails with less than the full complement. These payments are made to the seamen who perform the tasks of the missing crew members. Passenger pay is provided when cargo ships are carrying passen- gers and are not staffed for passenger service. Those seamen engaged in serving passengers are then given supplementary pay for their extra duties. Extra meal payments are made to members of the stewards' depart- ment required to serve extra meals to guests or others who are tempo- rarily aboard when the ship is in port. Such payments are usually a flat amount per meal for each individual served. Penalty cargo payments are provided when a ship is carrying haz- ardous or obnoxious cargo.

S. Shipping Board and seafaring unions was negotiated. OVERTIME PAYMENTS for licensed personnel of kO

on the Atlantic and Gulf Coasts and to 52^ on the Pacific Coast. On September 30, 1951, the Sailors' Union of the Pacific obtained an overtime rate of $2.^4-7 per hour and a "penalty" rate of 7$ above the straight time hourly rate ($1.82). 1953-1955 Until June 1955 the premium pay factor remained unchanged and costs increased only in relation to any increase in base wages. 1955-1956 Effective June 1955 the Sailors 1 Union of the Pacific negotiated a special agreement which included penalty pay in the base wages. This caused a drop in premium pay costs since part of the premium pay is now part of base wages. This resulted in an average premium pay factor of Uht on the Atlantic and Gulf Coasts and U0.6^ on the Pacific Coast. 1956-1961 The premium pay factor remained unchanged and the premium pay costs increased only in relation to any increase in base wages.
