Across U.S. Department of Labor LCA disclosures, BNSF Railway Company filed 25 Labor Condition Applications covering 31 H-1B worker positions between fiscal year 2023 and fiscal year 2026. The employer’s DOL certification rate sits at 84% (21 certified of 25 filed), a useful proxy for how cleanly their prevailing-wage attestations pass the Labor Department’s preliminary review before USCIS adjudication.

Compensation spread. Offered wages on BNSF Railway Company’s H-1B petitions range from $87,152 at the low end to $315,000 at the high end, with a petition-weighted average of $161,440. That range reflects the mix of occupations the company sponsors, led by Senior Operations Research and Advanced Analytics Specialist (4 petitions at $90,839 avg), followed by Staff Engineer and Senior Staff Engineer. H-1B salaries reported on LCAs must meet or exceed the DOL prevailing wage for the role and worksite, so the spread also tracks wage-level geography and seniority.
