List of European countries by average wage
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This is the map and list of European countries by monthly average wage (annual divided by 12 months), gross and net income (after taxes) for full-time employees in their local currency and in euros. The chart below reflects the average (mean) wage as reported by various data providers, like Eurostat.[1] The salary distribution is right-skewed, therefore more than 50% of people earn less than the average gross salary. Thus, median figures might be more representative than averages.[2]

These figures will shrink after income tax is applied. In some countries, social security, contributions for pensions, public schools, and health are included in these taxes. In certain countries, actual incomes may exceed those listed in the table due to the existence of grey economies.
