| Classification of Industries |
(a) The Conference Report specifically cites Puerto Rico's annual
Census of Manufacturing Industries as a source of average hourly wage
data by industry. Industries in that census are organized by Standard
Industrial Classification (SIC), the statistical classification system
used for a variety of governmental and statistical purposes. With
respect to non-manufacturing industries, or other industries not
included in the Census of Manufacturing, the Conference Report stated
that data ``should be at a level of specificity comparable to the four
digit Standard Industry Code (SIC) code level.''
(b) The Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) codes listed in
appendix A and B herein are designated in accordance with the Standard
Industrial Classification (SIC) Manual, 1987, published by the Executive
Office of the President, Office of Management and Budget. This
incorporation by reference was approved by the Director of the Federal
Register in accordance with 5 U.S.C. 552(a) and 1 CFR part 51. Copies
may be obtained from the National Technical Information Service, 5285
Port Royal Road, Springfield, VA 22161. Copies may be inspected at all
federal depository libraries in the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico; at the
district office of the Wage and Hour Division, U.S. Department of Labor,
New San Juan Office Building, 159 Chardon St., room 102, Hato Rey, PR
00918; at the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico Department of Labor and Human
Resources, Prudencio Rivera Building, Munoz Rivera Avenue 505, Mato Rey,
PR 00918; or at the Office of the Federal Register, 800 North Capitol
Street, NW., suite 700, Washington, DC. Establishments are classified
according to their primary activity. The classification structure
classifies industries by:
(1) Two-digit major group,
(2) Three digit industry group, or
(3) Four-digit industry code, according to the level of industrial
detail which may be required.
Each operating establishment is assigned an industry code on the basis
of its primary activity, which is determined by its principal product or
group
of products produced or distributed, or services rendered.
