perform all physical demand factors and that the worker could tolerate
constant exposure to all environmental conditions. In the absence of
information to the contrary, it is also assumed that at least average
functioning was possible in the areas below, even though the past jobs
in work history did not require the worker to demonstrate or perform at
these average levels.

* OCCUPATIONAL LOSS is the percentage of occupations which the worker is no
longer able to perform due to injury. CAUTION should be exercised in
generalizing from this figure, since this calculation assumes that
occupational titles occur with equal frequency.
==============================================================================
* PRE-INJURY / POST-INJURY OCCUPATIONAL SERVICE *
==============================================================================
DIRECTLY TRANSFERABLE OCCUPATIONS are those which share at least one
of the 3-digit WORK fields as known from the past work history
AND which have at least one of the same 3-digit MPSMS codes from any of
the jobs performed in the past. Directly transferable occupations have
primary job duties which are very similar to past work. Little or no
learning of job duties would be anticipated in a new occupation.
CLOSELY TRANSFERABLE OCCUPATIONS are those which are in combination
WORK fields (which involve multiple work technologies) AND which have at
least one of the same 3-digit MPSMS codes from past work history. A
combination work field suggests very similarly related occupations which
involve a variety of technologies (only some of which may be familiar to
the worker). Closely transferable occupations do not include directly
transferable titles. Some learning of a few job duties may be
anticipated.
GENERALLY TRANSFERABLE OCCUPATIONS are those which share at least one of
the 2-digit WORK fields from the past work history AND which involve at
least one of the 2-digit MPSMS codes from the past. Two digit coding
clusters occupations into generally related groups which may not share
the same specific skills as developed in the past. Generally
transferable occupations do not include directly or closely
transferable titles. Some learning of essential job duties is quite
likely to be necessary.
UNSKILLED OCCUPATIONS can be learned within 30 days and require no
previous occupational experience. As such, they are not included in the
analysis of transferable skills. There are a total of 3125 unskilled
occupations.

BUREAU OF LABOR STATISTICS - 2006 WAGE ESTIMATES **
WITH LOCAL ADJUSTMENT FOR: SEATTLE, WA
============================================================================
Average wage calculations below use the median wage estimate for the
CENSUS occupational group to which each DOT code belongs, as identified
through the preceding Pre-Injury / Post-Injury Analysis. Use care in
generalizing from these figures since these calculations assume that
the occupational titles occur with equal frequency.
Local adjustments are based on salary differential equations in the
"Geographic Assessor" developed by the BTA Economic Research Institute.
* Wage figures marked with an * indicate BLS "unpublished" values
for CENSUS groups with fewer than 50,000 workers nationally.
** These statistics are for the CENSUS group, NOT an individual DOT title.
Weekly and annual wages assume a 40 hour work week.

BUREAU OF LABOR STATISTICS - 2006 WAGE ESTIMATES **
WITH LOCAL ADJUSTMENT FOR: SEATTLE, WA
============================================================================
The Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) reports the national annual median
values of the weekly wage information collected by the Bureau of the
Census during its monthly Current Population Survey (CPS). Monthly
results of the CPS are collapsed into an annual pool of data, from which
the median value is calculated for each CENSUS occupational group. The
median value represents all full-time employed workers (except the
self-employed). The median wage does not mean the starting wage; rather
it is a point which is equidistant from both minimum (entry-level) and
maximum reported wages. Starting wage is often 20-30% below the median.
Average wage calculations below use the median wage estimate for the
CENSUS occupational group to which each DOT code belongs, as identified
through the preceding Pre-Injury / Post-Injury Analysis. Use care in
generalizing from these figures since these calculations assume that
the occupational titles occur with equal frequency.
Local adjustments are based on salary differential equations in the
"Geographic Assessor" developed by the BTA Economic Research Institute.
