2024 U.S. private-industry employment and wage context

Provides an official national reference for comparing payroll-employment scale and wage levels across private-industry supersectors before setting a staffing budget or selecting a closer peer benchmark.

  • Information had the highest published average weekly wage among the eleven private supersectors.: 3,355
    Published BLS unit: USD per week.
  • Trade, transportation, and utilities had the largest annual average employment among the eleven private supersectors.: 28,737,666
    Published BLS unit: employees.
  • Education and health services had the highest published over-the-year employment growth among the eleven private supersectors.: 4.2%
    Published BLS percentage normalized to a decimal ratio.
  • Leisure and hospitality had the lowest published average weekly wage among the eleven private supersectors.: 636
    Published BLS unit: USD per week.
Methodology and limitations

Complete and final 2024 U.S. QCEW annual averages for private ownership, all establishment sizes, and eleven disclosed supersector rows. QCEW covers employment and wages reported under state unemployment-insurance laws and UCFE.

Select the official U.S. annual area slice rows with area_fips US000, own_code 5 (private), agglvl_code 13 (supersector), size_code 0, year 2024, qtr A and a blank disclosure code. Preserve the official industry code, industry title, establishments, employment, total wages, average weekly wage, average annual pay and published over-the-year percentages without interpolation or recomputation.

  • These are broad national supersector averages, not a quote, recommended wage, occupation rate, local-market rate or employer-specific forecast.
  • QCEW excludes workers outside UI and UCFE coverage, including self-employed workers and other groups identified by BLS.
  • Reported wages exclude covered employer contributions for health insurance, unemployment insurance, workers compensation, private pensions and welfare funds, so average pay is not total employer cost.
  • Average wages reflect the mix of full-time and part-time work, occupations, bonuses, seasonality and other industry composition effects.
  • The Unclassified row is retained for source completeness but is not a stable peer benchmark because its classification mix and employment changed materially.
  • Values are nominal 2024 U.S. dollars and are not adjusted for inflation or regional cost differences.

BLS states that its published material is in the public domain, except previously copyrighted photographs and illustrations, and asks users to cite the Bureau of Labor Statistics as the source.

Update cadence

  • Quarterly review - 7 tracked sources or datasets

Local terminology

  • Sales-tax thresholds and measures are state-specific; there is no nationwide default.
  • Federal payroll inputs do not include state or local employer costs.

Common interpretation risks

  • Confirm nexus, taxability, sourcing, exemptions and the relevant state or local authority before collecting sales tax.
  • Treat published federal values as bounded planning inputs, not a worker-status or tax-liability determination.
