Questions, answered
Correctional Officers and Jailers pay in Ohio: common questions
What is the median wage for Correctional Officers and Jailers in Ohio?
The May 2025 BLS OEWS release published a median of $59,370 per year for Correctional Officers and Jailers in Ohio. This describes an occupation-area estimate, not a promised offer or an individual's pay.

What the Correctional Officers and Jailers median says in Ohio
The May 2025 BLS OEWS estimate puts the Correctional Officers and Jailers median in Ohio at $59,370 per year. Median means the middle of the published wage spread. It is not one worker's pay. It is not a job offer. The row is tied to SOC 33-3012 and BLS area 39.
BLS lists 12,610 wage and salary jobs for this exact role-place row. That is a survey estimate. It is not a count of open posts. The local mean is $58,660 per year. Mean uses all wage values behind the estimate, so high or low values can move it away from the median.
Ohio's Correctional Officers and Jailers median is 0.7% above the U.S. Correctional Officers and Jailers median of $58,940 on the same published median. The comparison uses the same SOC code and source period. It does not add price levels, taxes, benefits, hours, or a person's work history.
This page exists because the BLS artifact has one row for SOC 33-3012 and area 39. SOC 33-3012 names Correctional Officers and Jailers. Area 39 names Ohio. Both keys must match before WageScope can show or index this answer.
The 33-3012/39 row reports 12,610 wage and salary jobs, 2.27 jobs per 1,000 local jobs, and a 0.93 location quotient. Each value stays under the same two source keys.
For 33-3012/39, the annual median is $59,370 per year, while the matching mean is $58,660 per year. The row is published with annual and hourly fields. WageScope does not switch units to fill a blank.
BLS area 39 facts behind this Correctional Officers and Jailers page
Area 39 reports 5,550,180 wage and salary jobs across all covered occupations. Its annual mean is $64,390. Its annual median is $49,380. The employment RSE is 0%. The mean-wage RSE is 0.2%. These are facts for the whole area. They do not replace the 33-3012 row.
The all-jobs wage ladder in Ohio runs from $29,210 at the 10th percentile to $106,800 at the 90th percentile. The 25th percentile is $36,820. The median is $49,380. The 75th percentile is $77,570. This is a place check, not a pay range for Correctional Officers and Jailers.
The source rows below are the six largest detailed roles in the bounded area file. Each keeps its own SOC code. They help a reader spot-check area 39. They do not show related skills or a path into Correctional Officers and Jailers.
1. Area 39, SOC 35-3023, Fast Food and Counter Workers: 163,560 jobs, $28,430 annual median, 29.47 jobs per 1,000, and 1.19 location quotient.
2. Area 39, SOC 11-1021, General and Operations Managers: 153,160 jobs, $97,700 annual median, 27.6 jobs per 1,000, and 1.22 location quotient.
3. Area 39, SOC 29-1141, Registered Nurses: 143,730 jobs, $82,510 annual median, 25.9 jobs per 1,000, and 1.19 location quotient.
Pay range
Read the Ohio wage ladder for Correctional Officers and Jailers
The 10th percentile is $46,930 per year. The 25th percentile is $49,480 per year. The median is $59,370 per year. The 75th percentile is $66,850 per year. The 90th percentile is $68,060 per year.
A percentile is a rank point, not a career stage. The 10th percentile does not mean new-worker pay. The 90th percentile does not mean a wage that comes after a set number of years. The points show how the wage values spread in the source. They do not say why one job sits at one point.
The middle half runs from $49,480 per year to $66,850 per year. The 10th-to-90th span is $21,130. Use the full ladder when a job post sits far from the median.
Ohio has a annual median of $59,370 per year. No exact state row is linked for this area. The U.S. row has $58,940 per year. WageScope keeps annual and hourly values apart.
A state comparison is not available for Ohio. Ohio is 0.7% above the United States on the same published median. A gap can reflect many things that are not in this row. WageScope reports the gap but does not name a cause.
The state and U.S. rows are bench marks, not replacements. They do not fill missing local facts. A state can hold many local labor markets. A national row can hold many states. Read the local row first, then use the broader rows to see scale.
Where Ohio sits for Correctional Officers and Jailers
Ohio ranks 22 of 50 among states and territories with a published annual median for Correctional Officers and Jailers. The list keeps one SOC code, one map type, one wage metric, and one BLS release. It skips rows without the matching median.
Rank 22 of 50 is not a place score. A small wage gap can move a row several spots. The rank does not add local prices, job count, concentration, commute, taxes, or work rules. Use it only to find where the published median falls inside this like-for-like set.
The nearby rows below are the closest ranks, not chosen cities. Their pay, job counts, and local shares can differ. Open a peer page before making a deeper comparison. A title and one number are not enough for a move or pay choice.
19. Nebraska has a Correctional Officers and Jailers median of $63,380 per year, 3,250 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 1.29.
20. Colorado has a Correctional Officers and Jailers median of $62,140 per year, 7,290 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 1.04.
21. New Hampshire has a Correctional Officers and Jailers median of $61,360 per year, 680 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 0.4.
23. Kansas has a Correctional Officers and Jailers median of $56,120 per year, 3,380 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 0.96.
Pay leaders
Where Correctional Officers and Jailers medians lead among states and territories
The rows below use the same SOC 33-3012, the same annual median, the same May 2025 BLS release, and the same state map type. California has the highest published median in this set, at $96,370 per year. Ohio sits at $59,370 per year.
A pay lead is one fact. It does not show the size of the job base. It does not show how common Correctional Officers and Jailers is in the local mix. It also does not add local prices. The bullets keep the median, job count, and location quotient together so a high wage is not read as a full market score.
Use this list to choose a deeper pair, not to choose a place. Open the two local pages. Check the full wage ladder, the job scale, the survey care marks, and the exact BEA price row when present. A missing median stays out of this rank instead of becoming zero.
1. California has a Correctional Officers and Jailers median of $96,370 per year, or $37,000 above Ohio. BLS lists 37,860 jobs there, compared with 12,610 in Ohio. The location quotient is 0.85.
2. New Jersey has a Correctional Officers and Jailers median of $94,770 per year, or $35,400 above Ohio. BLS lists 7,570 jobs there, compared with 12,610 in Ohio. The location quotient is 0.72.
Job-base leaders
Where BLS counts the most Correctional Officers and Jailers jobs
Texas has the largest published state job estimate for Correctional Officers and Jailers in this same-source set, at 44,700 jobs. Ohio has 12,610. The count shows covered job scale, not open posts.
A large job base can have a lower median than a smaller one. It can also have a location quotient near or below 1. That is why WageScope does not blend job count, pay, and local share. Each field keeps its name and unit. The rows below let you compare all three without making one score.
Current MeritLog listings can add a dated view of employer-title matches. They do not change this May 2025 order. A place with few current cards can still have a large BLS job estimate. A place with several cards can still have a smaller estimate. The sources use different clocks and scopes.
1. Texas has 44,700 estimated Correctional Officers and Jailers jobs, a gap of 32,090 jobs from Ohio. Its median is $52,670 per year, or $6,700 below Ohio. Its location quotient is 1.3.
2. California has 37,860 estimated Correctional Officers and Jailers jobs, a gap of 25,250 jobs from Ohio. Its median is $96,370 per year, or $37,000 above Ohio. Its location quotient is 0.85.
Local-share leaders
Where Correctional Officers and Jailers takes the largest share of local jobs
Arizona has the highest published location quotient in this state set, at 1.79. Ohio has 0.93. A value above 1 means the role's local job share is larger than its national share.
A high quotient can come from a small local job base. It does not prove more jobs, more posts, faster growth, or higher pay. The bullets keep each quotient beside its BLS job count and median. This lets a reader see when the three measures point in different ways.
Use this list to ask where Correctional Officers and Jailers is a large part of the local mix. Use the employment list to ask where BLS counts the most jobs. Use the pay list to ask where the median is highest. None of those lists decides where a person should work.
1. Arizona has a location quotient of 1.79, a gap of 0.86 from Ohio. BLS lists 14,230 Correctional Officers and Jailers jobs and a median of $54,970 per year, or $4,400 below Ohio.
2. West Virginia has a location quotient of 1.74, a gap of 0.81 from Ohio. BLS lists 2,980 Correctional Officers and Jailers jobs and a median of $52,890 per year, or $6,480 below Ohio.
3. Louisiana has a location quotient of 1.68, a gap of 0.75 from Ohio. BLS lists 7,960 Correctional Officers and Jailers jobs and a median of $39,850 per year, or $19,520 below Ohio.
Job scale and share
How common Correctional Officers and Jailers is in Ohio
BLS lists 12,610 Correctional Officers and Jailers jobs in Ohio. It also lists 2.27 jobs per 1,000 local jobs. Jobs per 1,000 turns the count into a rate. It helps compare places of different size. It does not show open posts or hiring speed.
The location quotient is 0.93. A value of 1 means Correctional Officers and Jailers has the same share of local jobs as it has across the nation. This row is lower than 1. The quotient is a share check, not a wage or a growth measure.
Read the three values as separate facts. Employment asks how many covered jobs BLS estimated. Jobs per 1,000 asks how much of the local job base the role takes. Location quotient asks how that share compares with the national share. None of them tells you how many posts are open today.
Correctional Officers and Jailers beside other roles in Ohio
The all-occupations median in Ohio is $49,380 per year. The Correctional Officers and Jailers median is $59,370 per year. Correctional Officers and Jailers is 20.2% above the local all-occupations median on the same published median. This compares one role with the full covered job mix.
The nearby role medians below come from the bounded detailed-role table for Ohio. They are close by wage, not by task. A small wage gap does not mean two jobs need the same skill or lead to the same career. Official titles keep their own SOC codes and source rows.
Use the list to spot the local wage mix around Correctional Officers and Jailers. Then open the role page you mean. A role can have a similar median and a very different job count or local share. The pay number alone cannot show fit, demand, or a path between jobs.
1. Heavy and Tractor-Trailer Truck Drivers, SOC 53-3032, has a Ohio median of $59,800 per year. BLS lists 83,060 jobs and a location quotient of 1.13.
2. Licensed Practical and Licensed Vocational Nurses, SOC 29-2061, has a Ohio median of $61,950 per year. BLS lists 39,900 jobs and a location quotient of 1.72.
3. First-Line Supervisors of Office and Administrative Support Workers, SOC 43-1011, has a Ohio median of $64,220 per year. BLS lists 45,070 jobs and a location quotient of 0.88.
Area job mix
The largest detailed roles in Ohio
Fast Food and Counter Workers is the largest detailed occupation in the bounded Ohio table, at 163,560 jobs. Correctional Officers and Jailers has 12,610 jobs in its exact role-place row. The two counts show where this role sits beside other large parts of the local job base.
The all-occupations job count is 5,550,180. The detailed list below is only a bounded view of that larger mix. It does not sum to every local job. It does not include a blank role as zero. It helps explain why one role's wage and job count should not stand in for the whole area.
A large role can have a lower median. A smaller role can have a higher one. Job count does not show current posts, job quality, or growth. Use the list to see local scale. Then keep Correctional Officers and Jailers's own median, spread, and share in their own fields.
1. Fast Food and Counter Workers has 163,560 jobs in Ohio, a gap of 150,950 from Correctional Officers and Jailers. Its median is $28,430 per year, or $30,940 below Correctional Officers and Jailers. Its location quotient is 1.19.
2. General and Operations Managers has 153,160 jobs in Ohio, a gap of 140,550 from Correctional Officers and Jailers. Its median is $97,700 per year, or $38,330 above Correctional Officers and Jailers. Its location quotient is 1.22.
Area pay mix
Published role medians around Ohio
Software Developers has the highest published median in the bounded Ohio role table, at $114,090 per year. Correctional Officers and Jailers has $59,370 per year. This puts the role beside a local pay range without blending the source rows.
The local all-occupations median is $49,380 per year. A role above that mark is not better. A role below it is not worse. The mark only shows where the role's published median sits against the full covered job mix. Job tasks, level, hours, and work setting are separate facts.
The bullets keep each SOC title, job count, median, and local share together. Use them to find a role page worth opening. Do not use a close median as proof that two roles share skills or that one is a path to the other.
1. Software Developers has a median of $114,090 per year in Ohio, or $54,720 above Correctional Officers and Jailers. BLS lists 44,790 jobs, compared with 12,610 for Correctional Officers and Jailers. Its location quotient is 0.74.
2. General and Operations Managers has a median of $97,700 per year in Ohio, or $38,330 above Correctional Officers and Jailers. BLS lists 153,160 jobs, compared with 12,610 for Correctional Officers and Jailers. Its location quotient is 1.22.
Area role shares
Roles with the largest local share in Ohio
Miscellaneous Assemblers and Fabricators has the highest location quotient in the bounded Ohio role table, at 1.86. Correctional Officers and Jailers has 0.93. Both values compare a local job share with the matching national share.
A quotient above 1 means the role takes a larger share of local jobs than it does across the nation. It does not mean more jobs than every other role. It does not mean open posts, growth, or high pay. The job count and median beside each row answer those other narrow questions.
The local role-share mix can differ a lot from the pay mix. Read both lists. Then compare Correctional Officers and Jailers with the same SOC code in another place. This keeps a broad area pattern from replacing the exact role-place row.
1. Miscellaneous Assemblers and Fabricators has a location quotient of 1.86 in Ohio, a gap of 0.93 from Correctional Officers and Jailers. BLS lists 93,480 jobs and a median of $45,720 per year, or $13,650 below Correctional Officers and Jailers.
2. Licensed Practical and Licensed Vocational Nurses has a location quotient of 1.72 in Ohio, a gap of 0.79 from Correctional Officers and Jailers. BLS lists 39,900 jobs and a median of $61,950 per year, or $2,580 above Correctional Officers and Jailers.
Price-level view
What $59,370 may mean after the Ohio price level
BEA's 2024 all-items price index for Ohio is 92.8. The U.S. level is 100. The local level is 7.2% below that mark. This is a broad price comparison. It is not a personal budget.
WageScope divides the $59,370 Correctional Officers and Jailers median by 92.8 divided by 100. The result is $63,994 in national-price dollars per year. This proxy keeps the math clear. It is not take-home pay and does not set a move target.
Housing is 73.0. Goods are 93.7. Utilities are 95.8. Other services are 98.9. The parts do not move as one. WageScope uses BEA's all-items index for the proxy and does not make its own basket.
The employment RSE for this Correctional Officers and Jailers row is 0.9%. The mean-wage RSE is 0.2%. RSE means relative standard error. It is a survey precision flag. A smaller value often means less sampling uncertainty. It is not the chance that one person's pay is right or wrong.
The employment RSE belongs to the 12,610 job estimate. The mean-wage RSE belongs to the $58,660 mean. BLS does not give the same RSE field for the median or every percentile. WageScope does not move an RSE from one field to another.
A local row can change in a new release. A small role-place sample can also have more survey uncertainty than a broad national row. Keep the May 2025 date next to the value. Do not mix a newer job post with the BLS date as if both facts came from one clock.
The job block looks for strict employer-title matches to Correctional Officers and Jailers. It uses a Ohio place filter only when the public place list has an exact approved match. If that match is not safe, the page says the jobs are not narrowed to this place. A false negative is safer than showing a different role.
Each card keeps its employer, place, source, and seen date. Listings can change between visits while the survey figures stay tied to their release date. A listing range does not replace the $59,370 BLS median. The listing and survey answer different questions.
Open one listing. Check its level, work place, pay range, and needs. Then tailor with work facts you can support. Do not turn a wage, job count, rank, or price proxy into a résumé claim. The public page is read only. It does not save a job or start a draft on load.
What the Correctional Officers and Jailers row for Ohio does not claim
The row does not say what one person earns. It does not promise a job, offer, raise, or move result. It does not say why the local median differs from the U.S. row. It does not add tips, bonus pay, stock, benefits, taxes, or work hours unless those items are in the BLS wage measure.
The 12,610 job estimate is not a live opening count. The location quotient of 0.93 is not a growth score. Rank 22 of 50 is not a place score. The 92.8 price index is not a personal budget.
Use the row for one clear task. Read the May 2025 wage spread for SOC 33-3012 in BLS area 39. Compare the same metric with the state and U.S. rows. Add the separate 2024 price level when present. Inspect a dated job match. Then use confirmed work facts for a résumé.
BLS published an employment estimate of 12,610 wage and salary jobs for this exact row. It is a survey estimate, not a current opening count or forecast.
Are the current job listings included in the BLS wage calculation?
No. MeritLog shows eligible live public-catalog listings separately, with their own source and observation date. Posted pay never changes the official BLS distribution.
