About 2000 National, State, and Metropolitan Area Occupational Employment and Wage Estimates
Estimates for residual, "All Other", occupations are not available.
(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.
(2) = Hourly wage rates for occupations where workers typically work fewer than 2,080 hours per year are not available.
