1 Operators, supervisors, and senior operators on afternoon-evening or forenoon-evening assignments receive $1 per week more than day employees of corresponding length of service, and work one hour less (61⁄2 hours); on night assignments they receive $2 per week more than day employees. Hours do not include one-half hour given in two rest periods.

Senior operators on day work receive a minimum rate of $10 a week and may reach a maximum rate of $13 a week. Supervisors on day work receive a minimum rate of $13 a week and may reach a maximum of $15 a week. An examination of the data presented in the following table, showing the average weekly wages paid to operators, as of the date, August 29, 1914, not including any overtime worked, discloses the fact that the rates of pay by length of service are hardly representative of actual conditions, for the reason that a large proportion of the operators are receiving the higher rates of pay.

2 Overtime rate, time and one-half for Sunday work; for holidays, regular rate for actual hours worked plus the day's pay.

1 With the exception of Moving Picture Operators there are no regular hours for employees in this classification. Wages are paid by the performance, by the day or by the week, regardless of the number of hours worked. The three rates are shown, where possible, in the different localities, but have no connection with each other, although entered on the same line for convenience.

2 Overtime is any time worked before hour set for reporting at theatre, or after stage has been cleared after performance, or work on Sunday. For explanation of symbols, see note 1 on page 8.
