The average wage after income tax and employee social contributions, USD PPP — our calculation from the OECD average wage and the OECD net personal average tax rate.
How to read this figure
Our own calculation: the OECD average annual wage multiplied by (1 − the OECD net personal average tax rate). Both legs share the same denominator — gross wage earnings — which is what makes the multiplication valid; the tax wedge, which is measured against total labour cost including the employer’s contributions, cannot be used this way. It is a comparable type case for a single average earner: not your salary, and not a full net-income figure, since it excludes benefits, deductions and consumption taxes.
