Supplementary notes
* Gross salary (non-standardized) fewer employees' mandatory and non-mandatory social security contributions. The values refer to the gross salary in October 2020 (including benefits in kind, regularly paid bonuses, sales or commission components), compensation for shift, night and Sunday work, 1/12 of the 13th monthly salary, 1/12 of the annual special payments and earnings from overtime. Family allowances and child allowances are not considered.
Total percentages deviating from 100 percent are presumably due to rounding.
