- catalog abstract "This survey was sponsored by the Employment Standards Administration, United States Department of Labor. Among its major aims were assessment of the frequency and severity of work-related problems experienced by employed people in general and by major demographic and occupational subgroups, development of economical measures of job satisfaction suitable for use under a variety of conditions of census and research, and assessment of the impact of working conditions upon the well-being of workers. The investigators also sought to establish base-line statistics that might permit subsequent surveys to reveal any trends in the content areas originally investigated and to establish normative statistics that might permit other investigators to compare with national norms their data from more limited subsamples of workers. Many facets of a worker's job situation were examined. A series of questions regarding a person's expectations for a job were asked and later a similar series was used to ask ''how true'' each was of the respondent's actual job. Desired fringe benefits and actual fringe benefits were compared in a similar way. The relationship of respondents to their supervisors was questioned. Areas such as amount of work, job tension, difficulty of the work, and requirements for physical or mental effort were also explored. The structured interview schedule contained both closed and open-ended questions. Many of the open-ended questions were directed at estimating frequency and type of labor standards problems, such as those with unions, discrimination, physical working conditions, wages, and work schedules. Questions were asked not only about actual job situations, but also about areas affected by the job. Since physical and mental health may be influenced by place and type of employment, these areas were examined. The respondent's background was investigated in terms of age, sex, race, and education. The interview ended with questions concerning overall contentment with job and life in general.".
