Monthly earnings

What does a month of average work pay, in what it buys?

Mean monthly earnings of employees in PPP international dollars (ILO). Reaches 91 countries where the OECD average wage reaches 38 — a different collection and a monthly figure, so it is its own field rather than an extension of that one.

Luxembourg leads with $9,275 PPP/mo; Rwanda sits last at $193 PPP/mo. Best-for-you first — higher is better here.

Unweighted mean of the published values in each region — our aggregation, not an official statistic.

How to read this figure

Mean monthly earnings of employees from the ILO, in PPP international dollars — gross, before tax, main job, full-time and part-time workers together, both sexes. This is the wage field that reaches beyond the OECD: 91 countries against the average wage’s 38. It is not the same figure as the OECD average salary and should not be multiplied by twelve to compare with it — different collection, different population, and the ILO series is a mean of whatever employment the national source covers.

How to read this list

Mean monthly earnings of employees in PPP international dollars (ILO). Reaches 91 countries where the OECD average wage reaches 38 — a different collection and a monthly figure, so it is its own field rather than an extension of that one. 92 countries publish it; the rest are absent from the list rather than shown as zero. The figures were observed between 2021 and 2026 — a spread of 60 months — so this compares each country’s latest published number, not one moment in time. Every row carries its own date in the CSV and JSON; use it. Nothing here is estimated or carried forward to fill a gap. This metric is one column of the full dataset.
