About May 2009 National Industry-Specific Occupational Employment and Wage Estimates(1) Estimates for detailed occupations do not sum to the totals because the totals include occupations nodo not include self-employed workers.(2) Annual wages have been calculated by multiplying the hourly mean wage by a "year-round, full-time

for those occupations where there is not an hourly mean wage published, the annual wage has been dire

reported survey data.(3) The relative standard error (RSE) is a measure of the reliability of a survey statistic. The smaller the more precise the estimate.(4) Wages for some occupations that do not generally work year-round, full time, are reported either as salaries depending on how they are typically paid.(5) This wage is equal to or greater than $80.00 per hour or $166,400 per year.
