How this service works
US prevailing-wage determination for an occupation and location: the DOL OFLC four-tier level wages (Level 1 to 4) plus the average, hourly and annualized, with the geographic level, wage year and citation. Resolves the occupation by SOC code, O*NET code or free text and the location by OFLC area, county and state, or metro-area name. Optionally flags whether an offered wage meets the prevailing level.
Output
Returns the four OFLC wage levels (Level 1 through Level 4) plus the average, each expressed hourly and annualized, along with the geographic resolution level, the applicable wage year, and the regulatory citation. If an offered wage is supplied, includes a boolean compliance flag indicating whether the offered wage meets or exceeds the determined prevailing level.
Example use cases
H-1B LCA wage compliance check
“I need to file an H-1B LCA for a data scientist in New York — can you look up the DOL OFLC prevailing wages for SOC 15-2051 in the New York metro area and tell me whether our offered salary of $105,000 a year meets at least Level 2?”
Recruiting salary benchmarking by location
“We're hiring a registered nurse in Cook County, Illinois — what are the four DOL prevailing wage tiers for that occupation so we can set a competitive salary band?”
Multi-state wage level comparison
“I want to compare the Level 1 and Level 3 prevailing wages for accountants in Texas, California, and New York — can you pull the hourly and annual figures for SOC 13-2011 in each state?”
Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://payai.agentstools.dev/wage/prevailingWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need authoritative DOL OFLC four-tier prevailing wage data for H-1B, PERM, or other immigration or labor compliance filings. It is the right choice when you need both hourly and annualized figures across all four levels in one call, and especially when you want automatic compliance checking of an offered wage against the prevailing standard. Prefer it over generic salary databases when regulatory citation and wage year provenance matter.
Side effects
- Occupation not found: free-text or SOC/O*NET code does not resolve to a known occupation
- Location not matched: county, metro area, or state combination is ambiguous or not recognized in OFLC data
- No wage data available: occupation–location combination lacks OFLC survey coverage
- Invalid level: level parameter outside 1–4 range returns validation error
- Missing required context: neither soc, onet, occupation, nor area/state/county/msa provided
- Stale data: wage year may lag current year if DOL has not yet published updated survey
