Figure 7.   U.S. Average Annual Employee Salary for Motor Gasoline Outlets, 1990-1998

Welcome to Figure 7 of Restructuring: The Changing Face of Motor Gasoline Marketing. For more information please contact the National Information Center at (202) 586-8800.

Note:   Average computed by dividing annual salary payments by the number of employees during the week including March 12.

The decline in the annual salary during 1993 and 1994 is partly due to more general declines in retailing salaries, which apparently lagged the economic expansion of that began in early 1992 by a couple of years.   There also may be some effect arising from the 1992 Economic Census.   More data are collected on establishments during Census years than during non-Census years, resulting in some difference in the industry to which a particular establishment is assigned during a Census year relative to non-Census years.
