No. 72.-ANNUAL PERCENTAGES UNEMPLOYED among MEMBERS of CERTAIN TRADE UNIONS.

(Taken from the Eighteenth Abstract of Labour Statistics.)

NOTE. The particulars are based solely on Returns furnished direct to the Ministry of Labour by various Trade Unions which pay unemployed benefit to their members. Persons on strike or locked ont, sick or superannuated, are excluded from the figures.

(a) Including a number of Unions not specified in the five following columns.

(b) Affected by the general Coal Mining stoppage.

(e) The figures from 1921 onwards exclude pottery trade operatives. From July, 1924, onwards building trade operatives are also excluded from the general average.

PROFIT-SHARING.

(Taken from the Eighteenth Abstract of Labour Statistics.)

[blocks in formation]

(a) The statistics are exclusive of profit-sharing arrangements in co-operative societies, particulars not being available for the whole period 1911-25. In 1925, 125 societies, with 23,000 employees, were known to have profit-sharing schemes in operation. Returns from 112 of these societies showed that the bonuses paid to employees in 1925 averaged £4 18s. 8d. per head, or 4'1 per cent on earnings.

(b) Some firms have more than one scheme in operation.

(c) For a number of schemes information as to bonuses is not available.

(d) Schemes under which no bonus was paid are included.

(e) Not available.

TRADE UNIONS.

No. 74.-NUMBER and TOTAL MEMBERSHIP of TRADE UNIONS in GREAT BRITAIN and NORTHERN IRELAND.

(Taken from the Eighteenth Abstract of Labour Statistics and the Ministry of Labour Gazette)(c).

[blocks in formation]

NOTES.-The figures include the total membership of all Unions with head offices in Great Britain or Northern Ireland.

The statistics relate to all organisations of employees-including those of salaried and professional workers, as well as those of manual wage earners-which are known to include among their functions that of negotiating with employers with the object of regulating the conditions of employment of their members. The figures of membership include members in the Irish Free State and other overseas branches numbering approximately 59,000 in 1925.

(a) The subdivision of the total membership into male and female is not exact, as estimates have been made for some Trade Unions which are unable to state precisely the numbers of males and females comprised within their membership.

(b) The figures given for 1925 are provisional.

(c) The figures for the years 1920 to 1924 have been amended in accordance with the latest information available.
