Question 1

Which minimum wage is used?

Accepted Answer

Eurostat's statutory gross monthly minimum wage, converted to euros for non-euro countries. It refers to a full-time position; pro-rate it for part-time work.

Question 2

Why is my country not listed?

Accepted Answer

Several European countries (for example the Nordics, Austria, Italy and Switzerland) have no statutory minimum wage; floors are set by collective agreements instead, which Eurostat does not publish as a single figure.

Question 3

Is an offer just above the minimum bad?

Accepted Answer

Not necessarily, but context helps: compare it with the country's average wage and with typical pay for the occupation before deciding.
