State figures for New Jersey

Reading this wage estimate

What does this data mean for your opening?

For manufacturing occupations in Vineland, NJ, releases are separate survey estimates. They are not the same workers' raises and do not establish a pay trend or its cause. The local middle-band width is 71,570. The national median for the broader financial manager SOC is 166,570, placing the local metro near the national level.

The SOC 11-3031 combines financial managers from all sectors, obscuring the specific requirements of manufacturing controllers in the Vineland area.

For manufacturing occupations in Vineland, NJ, releases are separate survey estimates. They are not the same workers' raises and do not establish a pay trend or its cause. The local middle-band width is 105,140. The national median for the broader sales manager SOC is 148,270, making the local median higher than the national one. This category is broad, meaning the data represents general sales management and not just industrial sales experts.

The Plant HR Manager in Vineland reports a median of 130,480, up from 129,340. The local middle-band width is 47,730. Nationally, the human resources manager SOC shows a median of 149,280. The local wage is below the national average. The BLS maps this to the general SOC 11-3121, meaning it includes all HR management across diverse service and public sector industries.

The Injection Molding Technician reports a median of 34,870, showing a lower rate than the national median of 44,350. The middle-band width is 10,900. The national band width is 13,750. The mapping uses the broader molding and casting operator SOC, which is a generalized classification that does not isolate the technical injection molding skill set from other casting processes.

The Sanitation Technician in Vineland shows a median of 34,850, nearly matching the 34,680 from the prior year. The middle-band width is 5,960. The national median is 36,840, suggesting local wages are slightly below the national mid-point. The location quotient of 0.99 indicates a very standard concentration of this labor force in the Vineland market.

Why is the Plant HR Manager salary lower than the national median?

The reported salary is a broad cross-industry figure. Because the BLS includes HR managers from lower-paying sectors in its national aggregate, local manufacturing plant-level HR roles may naturally deviate from that broad national median.

Is the Injection Molding Technician wage industry-specific?

No, it is based on the broad SOC 51-4072 for molding and casting machine operators. It does not reflect the specific expertise required for high-volume injection molding in a manufacturing environment.

Does the Vineland data include local plant-level premiums?

The data is sourced from broad occupational categories, which do not distinguish between individual manufacturing facilities. As such, any specific premiums for industrial sanitation or injection molding technical skills are not separately identified.
