BLS OEWS May 2025 · Closest available occupation: SOC 37-2011 Janitors and Cleaners, Except Maids and Housekeeping Cleaners
Closest available: BLS has no porter occupation for apartment communities, so this is janitors and cleaners (except maids and housekeeping cleaners) in every industry.
Annual figures are BLS hourly wages × 2,080 hours. OEWS covers wage-and-salary workers only, so it leaves out the self-employed (including owners of management firms), workers in private households, overtime pay and most bonuses.
