(*) = Employment estimate is not available.
* = Hourly wage rates for occupations where workers typically work fewer than 2,080 hours per year are not available.
# = Median hourly wage is over $60.01 per hour.
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.
