Reading this wage estimate

What does this data mean for your opening?

The Yuma, AZ manufacturing hub reports competitive salary data for its industrial leadership and support workforce. Manufacturing Engineering Managers earn a median salary of $151,120, a figure based on a local sample size of 50. The local middle-band width is $36,690, which is much tighter than the national middle-band width of $73,140.

This reflects the focused demand for engineering management in Yuma, which is driven by a specific set of local production requirements.

For manufacturing occupations in Yuma, AZ, 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 $84,160, compared to the national band of $226,660. Manufacturing Headhunters notes that these roles in Yuma are typically focused on smaller-scale manufacturing operations, which accounts for the difference in median compensation from national averages.

For manufacturing occupations in Yuma, AZ, 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 $39,620, much more compressed than the national band of $88,180. The consistency in this pay band suggests that human resources management functions are standardized across the local industrial footprint.

Operational shop-floor roles, specifically Certified Forklift Operators and Sanitation Technicians, report medians of $37,820 and $34,230.
