First-Line Supervisors of Gambling Services Workers Salary and Pay

The national wage ladder (BLS OEWS, May 2024)

The five rows are five different workers in the same occupation, from the 10th percentile ($38,360) to the 90th ($82,370). BLS suppresses cells that fail its reliability rules (n/p here) and caps the highest wages at $239,200+ a year or $115.00+ an hour; in this ladder that top code appears at the very top rows only.

Employment and concentration

With 25,530 jobs nationally, First-Line Supervisors of Gambling Services Workers make up 0.02% of U.S. employment as BLS measured it in May 2024. The map is uneven: Nevada alone holds 5,640 of those jobs, the top three states hold 39.0%, and the deepest concentration sits in Nevada (location quotient 22.29, where 1.00 is the national average). A quotient above 2 usually signals a local industry cluster rather than evenly spread demand.

Pay inside the occupation is wide: $44,010 separates the ends of its ladder. The 90th percentile ($82,370) is 2.1 times the 10th percentile ($38,360), a gap of $44,010 a year. The mean of $62,600 sitting above the median of $61,590 tells you the top end pulls the average up: most workers cluster below the mean, and the high tail is thin.

Pay by state

Sorted by employment, the table below puts Nevada first at 5,640 jobs; sorted by median pay instead, Washington would lead at $75,750. Both orderings are printed in one table:

Metropolitan areas: where the jobs and the pay sit

Las Vegas-Henderson-North Las Vegas, NV is the largest metro employer with 4,890 jobs, 19.2% of the national total. Below, the biggest employers come first; the pay table after it only counts metros with 500 or more jobs in the occupation, so its leader is a real market and not a statistical artifact.

What the median pay looks like as a budget

Moving from the 25th percentile ($49,190) to the 75th ($74,080) is worth $24,890 a year, which is the realistic size of the experience and specialization premium inside this occupation. Gross is a starting point, not a budget: the paycheck calculator nets it down by state, an offer comparison lives in the salary calculator, and the raise vs inflation calculator separates a real raise from a nominal one.

To place a real offer: a salary of $67,749 would sit between the median ($61,590) and the 75th percentile ($74,080), inside the top half but outside the top quarter of this occupation's ladder. An offer at the 25th percentile, $49,190, is $12,400 under the median, the typical size of the discount attached to entry-level or low-cost-market postings in this field.
