About 1999 National, State, and Metropolitan Area Occupational Employment and Wage Estimates
Percentile wage estimates show what percentage of workers in an occupation earn less than a given wage and what percentage earn more.
The median wage is the 50th percentile wage estimate—50 percent of workers earn less than the median and 50 percent of workers earn more than the median.
More about percentile wages.
(1) 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.
(3) = Wage rates for this occupation are calculated using three years of data: 1997, 1998, and 1999.
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.
