What the Data Says About Salt Lake City, UT

Salt Lake City, UT, UT has 134 distinct employers in the PlainEmployers index, assembled from U.S. Department of Labor H-1B disclosures, OSHA injury logs, and WARN Act mass-layoff notices filed with state workforce agencies. The average median H-1B wage disclosed across this metro is $115,842, a figure anchored by federal prevailing-wage rules that force employers to pay visa-sponsored workers at least the going rate for the specific occupation and metro combination. Metro-level aggregates are especially useful for relocation research, because DOL prevailing wages are metro-specific — the same employer and job title can disclose a materially different salary in Salt Lake City, UT versus an adjacent metro.

Salt Lake City, UT's industry distribution is still being computed as employer coverage expands. Once a sufficient number of employers in the metro have H-1B or OSHA filings ingested, the dominant industries will surface automatically. In the meantime, visitors can still browse the employer list below, each row of which links to the federal disclosures for that specific employer, and compare them one-to-one even without a rolled-up industry mix.

Employer profiles for Salt Lake City, UT are still being backfilled from federal and state disclosures. The metro aggregates above reflect whatever employers have already been ingested, and will strengthen as the ETL pipeline pulls additional DOL, OSHA, and WARN records. In the interim, visitors looking for deeper context should review the matching industry pages and PlainEmployers' methodology notes to understand exactly which government datasets feed this metro view and how frequently they're refreshed.
