Job Title: Dishwasher

Company: Schmidt’s Sausage Haus

Location: Columbus, OH

Pay: $14 per hour

AI Pay Analysis: As of October 2023, an hourly rate of $14 for a Dishwasher position in Columbus, OH appears to be on the lower end of the wage spectrum for similar roles in the area. According to recent data, the average wage for dishwashers in the United States tends to range from $12 to $18 per hour, depending on factors such as experience, location, and the specific establishment. In Columbus, wages for dishwashers are generally around $13 to $16 per hour, making $14 somewhat competitive but not particularly attractive, especially considering that employers may struggle to attract and retain staff with more competitive options available. Therefore, while it aligns with industry standards, it may need to be adjusted upwards to better reflect local market conditions and to enhance recruitment efforts.
