Salary and Compensation Disclaimer

How to use the pay and salary information on Simply Salaries, and its limits.

Effective date: October 29, 2026.

Informational and educational purposes only

The compensation data, salary figures, pay scales, pay calendars and career information published on simplysalaries.com are provided for general information and education only.

Simply Salaries does not provide legal, employment, financial, tax or human resources advice. Nothing on this website is an offer of employment, a guaranteed pay schedule or a binding contract from any employer, agency or institution mentioned.

Accuracy and nature of the figures

  1. Published pay scales. Where we report a codified pay scale, such as a General Schedule table published by the U.S. Office of Personnel Management, a military pay table published by the Defense Finance and Accounting Service, or a state or school-district salary schedule, we report the figures as the official source publishes them and label them with the year or effective date that source gives.
  2. Statistics and estimates. Private-sector pay figures are statistics from their sources, such as medians, percentiles and ranges from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, or ranges employers disclose in job postings. They describe groups of workers, not what any individual will earn.
  3. What changes actual pay. Real compensation varies with location, cost of living, experience, certifications, education, employer budgets, local demand, bonuses, equity and benefits.
  4. No guarantee. Our editorial team checks every figure against its source before publication and reviews articles when new data is released, but pay tables and markets change. We make no warranty, express or implied, about the completeness, currency, reliability or accuracy of any figure on this site. Always confirm current figures with the official source we link to.
