APPENDIX A<br />

Statistical Tables for Fiscal Year 1969<br />

Readers are encouraged to communicate with the Agency as to questions on<br />

the tables by writing to the Office of Statistical Reports and Evaluations,<br />

<strong>National</strong> <strong>Labor</strong> <strong>Relations</strong> <strong>Board</strong>, 1717 Pennsylvania Avenue NW., Washington,<br />

D.C. 20570.<br />

GLOSSARY OF TERMS USED IN STATISTICAL TABLES<br />

The definition of terms contained in this glossary are not intended for<br />

general application but are specifically directed toward increasing comprehension<br />

of the statistical tables that follow. Thus the definitions are keyed<br />

directly to the terms used in such tables.<br />

Adjusted Cases<br />

Cases are closed as "adjusted" when an informal settlement agreement<br />

is executed and compliance with its terms is secured. (See "Informal<br />

Agreement," this glossary.) In some instances, a written agreement is<br />

not secured but appropriate remedial action is taken so as to render<br />

further proceeding unnecessary. A central element in an "adjusted"<br />

case is the agreement of the parties to settle differences without recourse<br />

to litigation.<br />

Advisory Opinion Cases<br />

See "Other cases—AO" under "Types of Cases."<br />

Agreement of Parties<br />

See "Informal Agreement" and "Formal Agreement," this glossary.<br />

The term "agreement" includes both types.<br />

Amendment of Certification Cases<br />

See "Other Cases—AC" under "Types of Cases."<br />

Backpay<br />

Amounts of money paid or to be paid employees as reimbursement for<br />

wages lost because they were discriminatorily discharged or unlawfully<br />

denied employment, plus interest on such money. Also included is payment<br />

for bonuses, vacations, other fringe benefits, etc., lost because of the<br />

discriminatory acts, as well as interest thereon. All moneys noted in<br />

table 4 have been reported as paid or owing in cases closed during the<br />

fiscal year. (Installment payments may protract some payments beyond<br />

this year and some payments may have actually been made at times<br />

considerably in advance of the date a case was closed; i.e., in a prior<br />

fiscal year.)<br />
