NOTES

  • 'Current' denotes 4th Quarter 2004. Wages are base year 2003-4th Quarter, aged using the Employment Cost Index.
  • Entry Wage:  Average of the lowest 1/3 employed.
  • Experienced Wage:  Average of the highest 2/3 employed.
  • Data for detailed occupations does not sum to the totals because the totals include data for occupations not shown separately. Estimates do not include self-employed workers.
  • Annual wages have been calculated by multiplying the hourly mean wage by a "year-round, full-time" hours figure of 2,080 hours; for those occupations where there is not an hourly mean wage published, the annual wage has been directly calculated from the reported survey data.
  • The relative standard error (RSE) is a measure of the reliability of a survey statistic. The smaller the relative standard error, the more precise the estimate.
  • Hourly wage rates for occupations where workers typically work fewer than 2,080 hours per year are not available.
