🌐 Website: https://checkmypayrate.com 📊 Live dataset (updated daily): https://checkmypayrate.com/data 📐 Methodology: https://checkmypayrate.com/methodology
Dataset
salary-benchmarks.csv— snapshot of the benchmark table- Live CSV: https://checkmypayrate.com/api/public/dataset/csv
- Live JSON: https://checkmypayrate.com/api/public/dataset/json
Columns: country_code, country_name, sector, monthly_value, annual_value, currency, reference_year, source, last_updated
Countries: United States, United Kingdom, Germany, France, Canada, Australia, Estonia, Sweden, Finland, Norway, Netherlands, Switzerland, Austria, Ireland, Italy, Spain, Portugal, Poland, Belgium, Denmark
Sectors: national average, IT & software, finance & insurance, energy & utilities, professional & consulting, manufacturing, public administration, healthcare, education, construction, transport & logistics, retail & wholesale, hospitality & food
How the figures are built
- National average — OECD average annual wages per full-time equivalent employee (series AV_AN_WAGE).
- Sector ratio — Eurostat national accounts (nama_10_a64): compensation of
employees ÷ number of employees, relative to the whole economy.
- 14 EU countries + Norway: each country's own Eurostat sector ratios
- Canada and Australia: EU-27 average sector structure (marked as an estimate)
- Switzerland: only sectors with Swiss data
- United States and United Kingdom: no sector figures; the website offers occupation-level pay from BLS and ONS instead
- Sector benchmark = national average × sector ratio.
Limitations: sector figures are modelled estimates, not directly measured salaries. Sector ratios are per employee, not per full-time equivalent, so sectors with many part-time workers (healthcare, education, retail, hospitality) may appear lower than full-time pay. Figures are not adjusted for cost of living.
MCP server
A remote MCP server lets AI assistants query the benchmarks directly.
