Statistics: Business: National Compensation Survey: Occupational Earnings in the United States, 2006

The National Compensation Survey (NCS) provides comprehensive measures of occupational earnings, compensation cost trends, benefit incidence, and detailed benefit provisions. This bulletin presents estimates of occupational pay for the Nation. These national estimates originate from the NCS locality survey data and are weighted to represent the Nation as a whole. Data for more than one-half of the 152 individual NCS localities used for national estimates have been previously published.

This edition of the National Compensation Survey (NCS) annual bulletin on occupational wages in the United States has undergone several major changes since its last publication. The most noticeable change is the bulletin’s format. Formerly, the NCS annual wage bulletin was printed in soft-cover book format, with nearly 150 pages of data tables, as well as posted on the Bureau of Labor Statistics Web site in TXT and PDF formats.
