Usual Weekly Earnings of Wage and Salary Workers News Release — 2015-04-21

(NOTE: The Usual Weekly Earnings of Wage and Salary Workers news releases for the first, second, and third quarters of 2015 were reissued on Tuesday, November 10, 2015, to correct errors in table 1 of the release. An incorrect price index was used to compute seasonally adjusted median weekly earnings in constant dollars for total, men, and women, affecting data for first quarter 2010 through the third quarter 2015. These estimates have been recalculated using the correct price index. No other series in the usual weekly earnings news release were affected by the error.) Median weekly earnings of the nation's 107.2 million full-time wage and salary workers were $808 in the first quarter of 2015 (not seasonally adjusted), the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics reported today.
