Special Advanta.t^es
Lower Labor Costs
Wages - The current minimum wage for interstate commerce is 90 cents per hour, Production workers in Puerto Rico's leather shoe industry average $1,02 per hour, This contrasts to the $1,77 average on the U, S, mainland, a.differential of $0.75 per hour,
Trends in Avera.ge Uourly Earnings
Incentiva Flans"Incentiva systems of wage payments apply to most production workarg in the industry, Tlie place ratas are straight-line incentives which have quotas for aach job, VAien tha worker produces abova the quota he receives the same amount for eacli additiona.1 unit produced, When he produces below the quota, maka-up pay is paid to the extent necessary to bring the wor ker's earnings up to the level of the minimum wage, The minimum wage, currently 90 cents per hour, is considered to be the training rate« Vidien an employee is considered by his sipervisor to be adequately trained he is shifted to piece rata work, The incentive system is geared to yield the unskilled, semi-skilled and skilled worker about 10, 20, and 35%, respectively more than the minimum rate. These yields are basad on a level of production equal to a "stateside day's v/ork",
Cccupational Rangas - V/ages for particular occupational skills also reflect very favorable differentials over wages prevailing on the U, S, mainland, The following typical rates prevail in Puerto Rican factories:
Fringe Benefits - Non-wage payrnents by shoe manufacturers average considarably less than the U, S, mainland industry, about 11-15% of payroll,
Legally required employer contributions include: V U, S, Social Security - 3 5/8% of worker's earnings up to $4,800 a year, ' , /' Unemployment Insurance 3,1% of workaT's earnings up to $3,000 a year, . Workmen's Compensation - 1.5% of payroll,
Maternity Leave - Two months at half pay,
Voluntary benefits are gránted by some firms,' These include:
Larga Pool of Capable Labor
Puerto Rico offers shoe manufacturers the opportunity of selecting workers from a labor forcé of 700,000 persons including 85,000 persons who
are currently uneniployed and actively seeking jobs,
The ratio of applicants per employment opportunity is 7 to 1, The Puerto Rico Employinent Service, an affiliate of the United States Smployment Service, assists firms in testing and screening candidates,
The Commonwealth Department of Sducation has long operated an extensivo vocational education program including courses in the leather field, Where desired, on-the-job training is available.
The result of these programs combined with the natural dexterity of Puerto Ricans provides the shoe industry with a competent work forcé achieving quantity and quality of output equal to workers in the United States rnainland shoe industry. The manager of V/ilson Shoe Co, sums up his experience as follows:
"Puerto Rican workers possess greater manual dexterity than I have ever sean. Stitchers, for example, are far superior to their counterparts in the United States shoe industry,"
Unionization
Approximately 12% of the workers in the industry are covered by collective bargaining agreements, These employees are in three of the industry's 23 plants,
Paula Shoe Co,, Inc, and Gentry Shoe Co., Inc,, affiliated firms operating on the same premises in Ponce, have a contract with the United Steel V/orkers of América (AFL-CIO).

Learners: With the approval of the Department of Labor, manu facturera may hire trainees at special low mínimum wages: the first 240 hours at 71 cents per hour and a subsequent 240 hours at 76 cents.
