Further information

The data presented in this dashboard is taken from the Office for National Statistics (ONS) Annual Survey of Hours and Earnings. More up to date (but much less detailed) estimates for average earnings growth are published on a monthly basis in the ONS UK Labour Market bulletin. The latest figures from both sources can be found in the Library briefing Average Earnings: Key Economic Indicators.

The Library’s briefing paper on the Gender pay gap takes a detailed look at pay between men and women.
