The automation of the major refinerie~ is about com- <br />pleted while a: numbe.r of smaller ones have not ,'yet been automated. <br />This phenomena did not alter the trend in GPO l?ut did alter the <br />trend in earnings.

Additional Industrial Detail <br />Additional industrial detail was requested for. industries <br />within the manufacturing sector. <br /> <br />Until additional data series can be developed it is not possible <br />to provide additional detail. <br /> <br />It was. requested that recreation and tourism be broken out <br />as an industry. <br /> <br />This will require a major program to develop measures of <br />recreation and tourism. At present recreation and tourism are <br />mixed in with the measures of services and trade. The establish- <br />ment of recreation and tourism measures is something we hope to <br />do but we do not now have the resources. <br /> <br />3. Discrepancies Between Earnings and Employment <br /> <br />One reviewer pointed out the fact that when economic area <br />earnings are divided by economic area employment the earnings _ <br />per worker differ greatly by industry and wondered if an error <br />had been 'lllade. <br /> <br />This difference does not result from an error but rather <br />from the fact the inconsistent classification systems are.used <br />in the two series. In the Census of Population employment <br />series government workers are classified by industry while in <br />the OBE earnings series all government earnings are included <br />under government. Thus while public school teachers and public <br />health doctors are carried under professional services in the <br />employment table, their earnings are included under government <br />in the earnings table. <br /> <br /> <br />This discrepancy was taken into account in analysing the <br />historic data and in making the projections. OBE is now develop- <br />ing an employment series which will be conceptually consistent <br />with the earnings data but that series will not be ready in time for <br /> <br />this report. <br /> <br />} <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />}h~~:~~.; <br />.....'...,-.. <br /> <br />~~<:;: :_'~ :;*: <br />.. . <br /> <br />~~~~r:?i~~~~: <br />.:<. .. <br />;:;.,.- ,'--.J <br /> <br />:.~~-'~,;.--~ -;: <br /> <br />9 <br /> <br />. .;.~~., -.-- <br /> <br />~:: ~:<':':" <br /> <br />
