Compromise reached on oil industry code changes
Washington Aug 9 The NRA approved substituting labor and wage provisions of the modified oil industry code for the reemployment agreement. The move ends a dispute over price fixing and lets employers sign the President's agreement to gain blue eagle status. The changes set a 40 hour workweek for production and marketing workers and a minimum wage from 12 to 131 dollars for filling station staff, with clerical and refinery workers also limited to 40 hours and other workers mostly under an 86 hour week cap. The modification eliminates separate labor provisions and includes a standard collective bargaining framework. Executives supervisors and pumpers on stripper wells are exempt from the maximum weekly hours.
