108. Several interesting features are brought out by the figures in the
above table. In Bombay, average daily earnings on piece rates are
about 53 per cent. higher than those on time rates whereas in Ahmedabad
they are more than double. On the other hand the approximate ratio
between Head Jobbers on piece rates to those on time rates is 1: 10in
Ahmedabad as against 2: 3 in Bombay which shows thatthe time basis of
payment exists to a much greater extent in Ahmedabad. In Sholapur,
the piece rate is the predominant basis of payment, the ratio being 10: 3
with average daily earnings of piece workers a little over 28 per cent.
higher than those of time workers. In Bombay there is a wide variation
in the average monthly earnings of Head Jobbers on time rates and those
on piece rates. The same wide variation exists in the case of full time
workers both in Bombay and in Ahmedabad but although the monthly
sarnings of piece workers ave higher than those of time workers in
Sholapur the figures for time and piece workers tend to approximate in
the case of all workers and to show a wider variation for full time workers.
The average monthly earnings of full time Head Jobbers on time rates
are higher in Sholapur than in Ahmedabad.
