Average salaries differ widely across Europe. The cost of living does too. So, which countries offer the highest pay? And how do salaries compare when adjusted for purchasing power standards?<\/p>\n<p>There are various definitions of salary, wages, and earnings, each reflecting different aspects. The average full-time adjusted salary per employee is particularly useful. Eurostat\u2019s calculation is based on the average gross annual salary for a full-time job. Euronews converted these figures into monthly salaries by simply dividing by 12.<\/p>\n<p>In 2023, the average full-time adjusted monthly salary per employee ranged from \u20ac1,125 in Bulgaria to \u20ac6,755 in Luxembourg. The EU average was \u20ac3,155. Denmark is the only EU country besides Luxembourg with a salary over \u20ac5,000. It offers \u20ac5,634. Ireland (\u20ac4,890) and Belgium (\u20ac4,832) come very close to this threshold. Austria (\u20ac4,542), Germany (\u20ac4,250), and Finland (\u20ac4,033) also offer salaries above \u20ac4,000.<\/p>\n<p>Some 10 of 26 EU countries pay under \u20ac2,000<br \/>\nAmong the 26 EU countries (excluding the Netherlands due to missing Eurostat data), 10 reported an average gross salary below \u20ac2,000. In four member states, the average salary was below \u20ac1,500. Poland stood just above this level at \u20ac1,505. In Romania, Greece, and Hungary, salaries were around \u20ac1,400s.<\/p>\n<p><a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.euronews.com\/business\/2025\/05\/06\/average-salaries-across-europe-which-countries-have-the-highest-pay\">Read more&gt;&gt;<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Source: <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.euronews.com\/business\/2025\/05\/06\/average-salaries-across-europe-which-countries-have-the-highest-pay\">Euronews<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\/vau-viikkokatsaus\/average-salaries-across-europe-which-countries-have-the-highest-pay\/\">Average salaries across Europe: Which countries have the highest pay?<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\">Vastuullisuusuutiset.fi<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[22],"tags":[18713,696,606,607,608],"class_list":["post-139432","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","tag-average-salaries","tag-europe","tag-vau_viikkokatsaus","tag-vauen","tag-vaufien"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/139432","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=139432"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/139432\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=139432"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=139432"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=139432"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
