Methodology
Every row is a verbatim sentence read from the named source's own page through our fetch service on the date shown, hash-pinned to the stored read (the sha of the page's visible text; the raw page is mirrored to R2).
5 of the 16 named sources that could be read published a usable figure; 11 published none and are recorded as not published, never filled in; 0 could not be read (blocked, dead or unreachable) and count nowhere.
The headline figures (median, minimum, maximum, quartiles) are over ONE figure per source for each breakdown it prices, in EUR (a source's median where its page yielded several accepted sentences for one breakdown), so a page that gives figures for several breakdowns gives one for each and N counts 9 figures, never sentences; 177 candidate sentence(s) were refused by a reviewer with the reason recorded.
The fuller derivation this dataset is chartered to grow into (not yet what the figures above are; they are each source's own published figure as read): CYSTAT's average and median gross monthly earnings per quarter and per year, beside the statutory minimum wage as the decree sets it, each with its release date - and then the thing no authority publishes: the same series run through this site's own deduction table, giving the NET average, the NET median and the net statutory minimum, and the percentile a given gross sits at.
CYSTAT publishes gross; the Labour Inspectorate publishes a gross minimum; nobody publishes what either is worth after the wedge.
177 candidate sentences on these pages were refused by a reviewer; each refusal and its reason is recorded in the review ledger.
