Why is there an upper limit on SalaryExpert pay data?
The OES government survey questionnaire’s maximum salary cutoff point is $70.01 dollars an hour. So the highest individual rate reported by the OES is $145,000 per year. In addition, the surveyed figures are updated from their effective dates when published to today’s projected values (based on our research of salary structure changes). Any “high” figure shown above the average/median amounts would reflect the updated 90th percentile level of the salary range, which will typically be higher than average in the highest-paying communities.
