How These Figures Are Calculated
Every figure on this page is counted from the remote general listings live on RemoteJobsOne when the page was last refreshed. Hourly figures use only listings that publish both the floor and the ceiling of their range, so a half-stated range cannot pull one median without the other. Medians are used rather than averages, because a single unusually high rate would move an average somewhere no reader will be offered. Figures from fewer than five listings are not reported. The rates are the employers’ own published figures; nothing is estimated.
