Earners distribution based on their level of earnings relative to the overall median, by age group, gender and educational attainment level

This dataset contains data on the distribution of workers based on their level of earnings relative to the overall median, by educational attainment level, gender and age group. The default table displays 2024 data (or the latest available year) on the distribution of 25-64 year-old workers, for a given level of the three aggregated levels of educational attainment. The selection can be changed to display data by gender and by age group. Overall median refers the median earnings from work for 25-64 year-olds with income from employment (full- and part-time workers) for all levels of educational attainment. Data refer to gross earnings except for Argentina and Türkiye. Filter the time period to visualise historical data.

Data for the latest available year are preliminary. Final data will be released on September 29, 2026.
