BACK TO MAIN WAGES STATISTICS PAGE

NOTE: The data contained in this table is an average of the number of cases reported by the Survey of Employment, Earnings and Hours of Work, and may therefore depend on the extent to which the earnings and wages of the employees within the respective occupations (titles) vary. In industry or occupation classes where the cases reported are not as diverse as or characteristic of the population, average earnings may differ considerably from the true population estimates of average earnings for that particular class. A more accurate estimate of earnings and hours of work is obtained where the number of cases reported are representative of what exist in the population.
