Question 1

How is the percentile estimated?

Accepted Answer

Your gross pay is placed inside the P10-median-P90 range Eurostat publishes for the occupation. Between those anchor points the position is interpolated linearly; below P10 you are in the bottom 10%, above P90 in the top 10%.

Question 2

Why enter gross, not net?

Accepted Answer

The Structure of Earnings Survey reports gross monthly pay for full-time employees, so the comparison only works like-for-like with your gross salary before tax and social contributions.

Question 3

How current is the distribution?

Accepted Answer

The Structure of Earnings Survey runs every four years; the latest published distribution is from 2022. Pay levels have risen since, so recent salaries may rank slightly higher than shown.
