03About this data

Source, definitions, and limits

Source: BLS Occupational Employment and Wage Statistics
Period: May 2025 estimates (released May 15, 2026)
Official: U.S. by industry; U.S. all industries; states, all industries
Experimental: States × manufacturing, BLS research estimates
Citation: Source: U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, Occupational Employment and Wage Statistics (OEWS).

What these wages are

Straight-time gross pay: base pay, commissions, and production bonuses, excluding overtime, shift differentials, and benefits. Annual figures are hourly wages × 2,080 hours.
The median is the midpoint of workers' wages; the 10th–90th percentile range shows where most workers fall. These describe all workers in the occupation, not any employer's pay scale.
Where a state has few workers in an occupation, its estimates are less precise and can differ sharply from the U.S. figure.
Not comparable to the average annual pay on state profiles, which comes from a different BLS program (QCEW) and includes all reported wages.

Official and experimental figures

BLS does not publish official manufacturing-only wages by state. State medians are for the occupation across all employers in the state.
Figures marked Experimental are BLS research estimates for manufacturing only. BLS provides them for research purposes, with higher model error and fewer published values; treat them as indicative.
Not available: BLS did not release the estimate. No BLS estimate: BLS published nothing for that state and occupation. Neither is ever shown as zero.
vs. U.S. = state median ÷ U.S. median − 1, both official all-industry figures. Mfg. vs. all = U.S. manufacturing median ÷ U.S. all-industry median − 1.
