Questions, answered
Cutting, Punching, and Press Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders, Metal and Plastic pay in Alaska: common questions
What is the median wage for Cutting, Punching, and Press Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders, Metal and Plastic in Alaska?
The May 2025 BLS OEWS release published a median of $49,010 per year for Cutting, Punching, and Press Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders, Metal and Plastic in Alaska. This describes an occupation-area estimate, not a promised offer or an individual's pay.
Is Cutting, Punching, and Press Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders, Metal and Plastic pay higher in Alaska than nationally?
Alaska's published median was 5.8% above the U.S. median for the same occupation and release.
Does the wage estimate adjust for cost of living in Alaska?
No. The BLS wage is nominal. WageScope separately shows BEA's 2024 all-items Regional Price Parity of 102.4 and a transparent national-price-dollar proxy.

What the Cutting, Punching, and Press Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders, Metal and Plastic median says in Alaska
The May 2025 BLS OEWS estimate puts the Cutting, Punching, and Press Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders, Metal and Plastic median in Alaska at $49,010 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 51-4031 and BLS area 02.
BLS lists 80 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 $51,270 per year. Mean uses all wage values behind the estimate, so high or low values can move it away from the median.
Alaska's Cutting, Punching, and Press Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders, Metal and Plastic median is 5.8% above the U.S. Cutting, Punching, and Press Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders, Metal and Plastic median of $46,330 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 51-4031 and area 02. SOC 51-4031 names Cutting, Punching, and Press Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders, Metal and Plastic. Area 02 names Alaska. Both keys must match before WageScope can show or index this answer.
The 51-4031/02 row reports 80 wage and salary jobs, 0.24 jobs per 1,000 local jobs, and a 0.21 location quotient. Each value stays under the same two source keys.
For 51-4031/02, the annual median is $49,010 per year, while the matching mean is $51,270 per year. The row is published with annual and hourly fields. WageScope does not switch units to fill a blank.
BLS area 02 facts behind this Cutting, Punching, and Press Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders, Metal and Plastic page
Area 02 reports 325,570 wage and salary jobs across all covered occupations. Its annual mean is $74,720. Its annual median is $61,000. The employment RSE is 0%. The mean-wage RSE is 0.3%. These are facts for the whole area. They do not replace the 51-4031 row.
The all-jobs wage ladder in Alaska runs from $34,930 at the 10th percentile to $128,720 at the 90th percentile. The 25th percentile is $43,470. The median is $61,000. The 75th percentile is $92,910. This is a place check, not a pay range for Cutting, Punching, and Press Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders, Metal and Plastic.
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 02. They do not show related skills or a path into Cutting, Punching, and Press Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders, Metal and Plastic.
1. Area 02, SOC 41-2031, Retail Salespersons: 7,890 jobs, $37,290 annual median, 24.23 jobs per 1,000, and 0.97 location quotient.
2. Area 02, SOC 29-1141, Registered Nurses: 7,510 jobs, $109,480 annual median, 23.06 jobs per 1,000, and 1.06 location quotient.
Pay range
Read the Alaska wage ladder for Cutting, Punching, and Press Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders, Metal and Plastic
The 10th percentile is $43,770 per year. The 25th percentile is $45,160 per year. The median is $49,010 per year. The 75th percentile is $58,320 per year. The 90th percentile is $62,470 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 $45,160 per year to $58,320 per year. The 10th-to-90th span is $18,700. Use the full ladder when a job post sits far from the median.
Alaska has a annual median of $49,010 per year. No exact state row is linked for this area. The U.S. row has $46,330 per year. WageScope keeps annual and hourly values apart.
A state comparison is not available for Alaska. Alaska is 5.8% 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 Alaska sits for Cutting, Punching, and Press Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders, Metal and Plastic
Alaska ranks 7 of 50 among states and territories with a published annual median for Cutting, Punching, and Press Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders, Metal and Plastic. The list keeps one SOC code, one map type, one wage metric, and one BLS release. It skips rows without the matching median.
Rank 7 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.
4. Colorado has a Cutting, Punching, and Press Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders, Metal and Plastic median of $50,790 per year, 1,400 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 0.44.
5. Minnesota has a Cutting, Punching, and Press Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders, Metal and Plastic median of $49,770 per year, 6,130 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 1.89.
6. Wisconsin has a Cutting, Punching, and Press Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders, Metal and Plastic median of $49,270 per year, 7,960 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 2.46.
Pay leaders
Where Cutting, Punching, and Press Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders, Metal and Plastic medians lead among states and territories
The rows below use the same SOC 51-4031, the same annual median, the same May 2025 BLS release, and the same state map type. Oregon has the highest published median in this set, at $53,680 per year. Alaska sits at $49,010 per year.
A pay lead is one fact. It does not show the size of the job base. It does not show how common Cutting, Punching, and Press Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders, Metal and Plastic 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. Oregon has a Cutting, Punching, and Press Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders, Metal and Plastic median of $53,680 per year, or $4,670 above Alaska. BLS lists 1,180 jobs there, compared with 80 in Alaska. The location quotient is 0.55.
2. Maine has a Cutting, Punching, and Press Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders, Metal and Plastic median of $51,820 per year, or $2,810 above Alaska. BLS lists 180 jobs there, compared with 80 in Alaska. The location quotient is 0.25.
Job-base leaders
Where BLS counts the most Cutting, Punching, and Press Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders, Metal and Plastic jobs
Michigan has the largest published state job estimate for Cutting, Punching, and Press Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders, Metal and Plastic in this same-source set, at 22,060 jobs. Alaska has 80. 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. Michigan has 22,060 estimated Cutting, Punching, and Press Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders, Metal and Plastic jobs, a gap of 21,980 jobs from Alaska. Its median is $46,120 per year, or $2,890 below Alaska. Its location quotient is 4.55.
2. Ohio has 13,350 estimated Cutting, Punching, and Press Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders, Metal and Plastic jobs, a gap of 13,270 jobs from Alaska. Its median is $45,230 per year, or $3,780 below Alaska. Its location quotient is 2.18.
Local-share leaders
Where Cutting, Punching, and Press Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders, Metal and Plastic takes the largest share of local jobs
Michigan has the highest published location quotient in this state set, at 4.55. Alaska has 0.21. 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 Cutting, Punching, and Press Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders, Metal and Plastic 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. Michigan has a location quotient of 4.55, a gap of 4.34 from Alaska. BLS lists 22,060 Cutting, Punching, and Press Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders, Metal and Plastic jobs and a median of $46,120 per year, or $2,890 below Alaska.
2. Kentucky has a location quotient of 3.31, a gap of 3.10 from Alaska. BLS lists 7,290 Cutting, Punching, and Press Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders, Metal and Plastic jobs and a median of $45,760 per year, or $3,250 below Alaska.
Job scale and share
How common Cutting, Punching, and Press Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders, Metal and Plastic is in Alaska
BLS lists 80 Cutting, Punching, and Press Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders, Metal and Plastic jobs in Alaska. It also lists 0.24 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 0.21. A value of 1 means Cutting, Punching, and Press Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders, Metal and Plastic 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.
Cutting, Punching, and Press Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders, Metal and Plastic beside other roles in Alaska
The all-occupations median in Alaska is $61,000 per year. The Cutting, Punching, and Press Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders, Metal and Plastic median is $49,010 per year. Cutting, Punching, and Press Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders, Metal and Plastic is 19.7% below 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 Alaska. 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 Cutting, Punching, and Press Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders, Metal and Plastic. 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. Secretaries and Administrative Assistants, Except Legal, Medical, and Executive, SOC 43-6014, has a Alaska median of $48,530 per year. BLS lists 5,390 jobs and a location quotient of 1.51.
Area job mix
The largest detailed roles in Alaska
Retail Salespersons is the largest detailed occupation in the bounded Alaska table, at 7,890 jobs. Cutting, Punching, and Press Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders, Metal and Plastic has 80 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 325,570. 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 Cutting, Punching, and Press Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders, Metal and Plastic's own median, spread, and share in their own fields.
1. Retail Salespersons has 7,890 jobs in Alaska, a gap of 7,810 from Cutting, Punching, and Press Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders, Metal and Plastic. Its median is $37,290 per year, or $11,720 below Cutting, Punching, and Press Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders, Metal and Plastic. Its location quotient is 0.97.
Area pay mix
Published role medians around Alaska
General and Operations Managers has the highest published median in the bounded Alaska role table, at $116,630 per year. Cutting, Punching, and Press Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders, Metal and Plastic has $49,010 per year. This puts the role beside a local pay range without blending the source rows.
The local all-occupations median is $61,000 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. General and Operations Managers has a median of $116,630 per year in Alaska, or $67,620 above Cutting, Punching, and Press Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders, Metal and Plastic. BLS lists 6,020 jobs, compared with 80 for Cutting, Punching, and Press Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders, Metal and Plastic. Its location quotient is 0.82.
2. Registered Nurses has a median of $109,480 per year in Alaska, or $60,470 above Cutting, Punching, and Press Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders, Metal and Plastic. BLS lists 7,510 jobs, compared with 80 for Cutting, Punching, and Press Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders, Metal and Plastic. Its location quotient is 1.06.
Area role shares
Roles with the largest local share in Alaska
Operating Engineers and Other Construction Equipment Operators has the highest location quotient in the bounded Alaska role table, at 3.05. Cutting, Punching, and Press Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders, Metal and Plastic has 0.21. 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 Cutting, Punching, and Press Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders, Metal and Plastic with the same SOC code in another place. This keeps a broad area pattern from replacing the exact role-place row.
1. Operating Engineers and Other Construction Equipment Operators has a location quotient of 3.05 in Alaska, a gap of 2.84 from Cutting, Punching, and Press Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders, Metal and Plastic. BLS lists 3,050 jobs and a median of $77,810 per year, or $28,800 above Cutting, Punching, and Press Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders, Metal and Plastic.
Price-level view
What $49,010 may mean after the Alaska price level
BEA's 2024 all-items price index for Alaska is 102.4. The U.S. level is 100. The local level is 2.4% above that mark. This is a broad price comparison. It is not a personal budget.
WageScope divides the $49,010 Cutting, Punching, and Press Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders, Metal and Plastic median by 102.4 divided by 100. The result is $47,880 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 93.8. Goods are 106.3. Utilities are 119.0. Other services are 102.2. 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 Cutting, Punching, and Press Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders, Metal and Plastic row is 37.7%. The mean-wage RSE is 4.6%. 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 80 job estimate. The mean-wage RSE belongs to the $51,270 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 Cutting, Punching, and Press Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders, Metal and Plastic. It uses a Alaska 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 $49,010 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 Cutting, Punching, and Press Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders, Metal and Plastic row for Alaska 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 80 job estimate is not a live opening count. The location quotient of 0.21 is not a growth score. Rank 7 of 50 is not a place score. The 102.4 price index is not a personal budget.
Use the row for one clear task. Read the May 2025 wage spread for SOC 51-4031 in BLS area 02. 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.
How many Cutting, Punching, and Press Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders, Metal and Plastic jobs does BLS estimate in Alaska?
BLS published an employment estimate of 80 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.
