Medical Lab Technician Salary In The United States
This page shows how much employers are advertising for medical lab technicians in current US job postings that publish pay. You will find the median advertised salary, the range, hourly and monthly equivalents and a state-by-state table. These are advertised salaries from job postings, not official wage statistics, and each figure shows its source and date.
Not Enough Current Postings To Show A Salary
We show advertised salaries only when enough current job postings publish one. The guidance below still applies, and live job listings may show pay on individual postings.
How Much Does A Medical Lab Technician Make
The figure below answers how much employers are offering medical lab technicians right now. It is the median advertised salary from current US job postings for this title that publish pay, with the range and the number of postings behind it.
Advertised salary data for this job is not available right now. Figures appear here when the salary data provider has enough current postings.
Advertised pay is what employers put in postings, before tax and without benefits. What a person actually earns also depends on experience, shift, overtime and the employer.
How Much Does A Medical Lab Technician Make A Year
The yearly figure above is the median advertised medical lab technician salary a year, before tax. Where a posting gives hourly pay, it is converted to a yearly amount at 40 hours a week for 52 weeks, which is 2,080 hours.
To convert any hourly offer yourself, use the hourly to salary calculator. Part-time schedules or unpaid weeks off lower the yearly total.
How Much Does A Medical Lab Technician Make An Hour
The hourly figure shown with the salary above is the yearly amount divided by 2,080 hours, or the hourly rate as posted when the employer advertises by the hour. Some medical lab technician postings list pay by the hour and others by the year, so both are shown. To turn a yearly offer into an hourly medical lab technician pay rate for your own schedule, use the salary to hourly calculator.
How Much Does A Medical Lab Technician Make A Month
A monthly figure is the yearly salary divided by 12. Divide the median above by 12 to see a typical medical lab technician salary per month before tax. If you are paid every two weeks, you receive 26 paychecks a year rather than 24, so most months have two paychecks and usually two months have three.
Average Medical Lab Technician Salary
We publish the median advertised salary for medical lab technicians rather than an average. The median is the middle value of all postings that publish pay, so a few unusually high or low offers do not distort it.
It answers the same question people mean when they ask for an average: what a typical medical lab technician posting offers. Because it comes from job postings, it is not an official wage statistic.
Medical Lab Technician Salary Range
The range shown with the salary figure runs from the lower to the higher advertised pay among current postings. Postings near the bottom are often for less experience or part-time hours, and postings near the top often ask for more experience, credentials or harder shifts. A starting medical lab technician salary usually sits toward the low end of the range, and the medical lab technician salary with experience moves toward the middle and top as you add years and skills.
Medical Lab Technician Salary Per Hour
Hourly figures make it easy to compare medical lab technician offers that use different pay periods. Divide a yearly salary by 2,080 to get the hourly equivalent of a full-time schedule, or multiply an hourly rate by 2,080 for the yearly figure.
Medical Lab Technician Salary By State
Advertised pay for medical lab technicians differs from state to state. The table shows the median advertised salary and the number of open jobs in each state, and each state links to its own salary page.
State-by-state advertised salary data is not available right now.
Entry Level Medical Lab Technician Salary
Entry level medical lab technician postings usually advertise pay toward the lower end of the range shown above. To see them, search for the title with the words entry level and sort by salary.
Credentials, shift premiums and the employer's location can lift a first offer, so read each posting's requirements and pay details. Our entry level jobs page lists current openings for people new to a field.
Medical Lab Technician Pay In Job Postings
Pay in job postings is what employers choose to advertise, and not every posting includes it. Some list a single rate, some a range, and some add bonuses, shift differentials or commission on top.
- Check whether the pay is hourly or yearly before comparing offers.
- Look for the medical lab technician salary and benefits together, since health insurance, retirement contributions and paid time off add real value.
- Note any sign-on bonus separately; it is usually paid once, not every year.
- Confirm the schedule, because overtime and shift premiums change total pay.
