The primary data source of this table is the Occupational Employment Statistics (OES) program, a BLS-state partnership for collecting data at the occupational level.
Data Sources
| National | State/Local | Notes | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Source | BLS | BLS | OES data is published annually from a 3-year overlapping sample. For this reason, changes in occupational coding can complicate loads into the database. |
| LEWIS | These are for editing and controlled access by LMI Analysts. State-level data can also be aggregated to state-specific regional combinations, as well extracts created for analysis. | ||
| WID Version? | WID 2.8 WID 3.0 | This comes from publicly available BLS data and will be available shortly after the official publication date/time. |
Table Format
With version 2.6, OESWAGE was replaced with IOWAGE, a similar table that is designed to be more accommodating of additional data sources.
