About May 2011 National Industry-Specific 

Occupational Employment and Wage Estimates

(1) Estimates for detailed occupations do not sum to the totals because the totals include occupations not shown 

separately. Estimates do not include self-employed workers.

(2) 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) 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.

(8) Estimate not released.
