How it works

  1. Type an employer

    And a job title if you want one. Partial names work: google finds Google LLC.

  2. Its filings read

    Every certified labour condition application it filed, from the Department of Labor's disclosure data.

  3. Pay by job title

    How many filings, the median wage offered, the middle half, and where the work is.

From the Department of Labor’s LCA disclosure data, the latest quarterly file. Certified filings only; a wage under $15,000 or over $2,000,000 a year is left out as a mistyped unit.

Where do H-1B salaries come from?

Before an employer can sponsor someone on an H-1B, it files a labour condition application with the Department of Labor stating the job title, the worksite and the wage it will pay, which must be at least the prevailing wage for that job there. The department publishes every application each quarter. This lookup reads the certified ones.

Is the filed wage what the person is paid?

It is what the employer committed to pay, at least. Actual pay can be higher, with bonuses and stock on top, which the filing does not include. A filing can also cover several positions, and a range where the employer gave one.

Why is a company missing?

A filing is needed only to sponsor someone, so a company that hires without sponsoring files nothing, and an empty answer means no sponsored hiring on record, not no hiring. Try a shorter name: the filed name is often the legal entity, such as Google LLC or Amazon.com Services LLC.
