What belongs in the pay comparison

OEWS includes straight-time gross wages, guaranteed pay, commissions and production bonuses. It excludes overtime, shift differentials, nonproduction bonuses and employer-paid benefits. It is neither pure base salary nor total compensation. A discretionary annual, retention or sign-on bonus is not the same as a production bonus. Ask what earns each payment before comparing the offer with this table. Equity is separate from the cash wage shown here. State those terms alongside base pay; the BLS percentile does not price them for you.

Ask what the person completed themselves and what a manager or specialist reviewed. A system name on a resume does not establish depth in that workflow. The BLS figure describes the listed occupation, not a separately measured rate for this exact opening.
