RoadWage reads what employers are advertising right now across the traveling-trades market — real posted rates and per diem, not survey averages. It comes with a Market Intelligence report. Create a recruiter account to get it.

These are wages actually paid across all employers in the state — a different measurement from the advertised rates above, which is why the two numbers rarely match. Travel work with per diem and overtime typically sits above the state median.
