    1. That Graphic is slightly misleading, in Austria there is no Universal minimum wage but for about 98% of employees there is a collective contract, which includes a minimum wage. The exact amount depends on the collective contract for the specific industry.

      Gross is slightly weird. Est vs LT difference looks +200 LT but is actually -50 LT, pretty big swing

      To compare Lithuanian minimum wage with rest of europe, you need to subtract ~30%. We had a tax reform, which put all employer contributions as part of the employees wage.

    5. As u/scead says for Austria is similar in Italy.

      The largest part of employers are under collective contracts, each with its own level based table, each level has its own minimum wage.

      Approximately ~6% of workers in Italy is freelancer, they have no minimum wage but if you live here and can afford the costs being freelance so the income is not a problem at all.

      The minimum wages must be evaluated on an hourly base. There is nothing such as a minimum gross income per month anywhere, but rather a minimum gross income per hour worked

      A better formulation would be “no global/general minimum wage”, because these countries decide by sectors and by union/chamber

      Monthly earnings for what hours? If 40, Netherlands should be 2496. 2246 is correct for 36 hours.

      The gross minimum wage in Hungary in 2007 was 245 euros, while in Romania it was 114 euros. That’s what happens when you keep electing a Putinist dictator like Viktor Orban.

      coffee is way to expensive in poland with that minimum wage

    12. To be readable we would need the net after tax wages instead. Tax levels at various stages vary widely

      When people elsewhere admire Europe for whatever reason they need to see this map. There’s nothing admirable about having to live in poverty while being in full time employment. Our work is just not valuable enough. Valuable enough that it needs to be done but not valuable enough that we would deserve to get paid enough for doing it. “Anyone can do your work so you don’t deserve higher pay” then why aren’t you doing that work if anyone can do it?

      Greece is wrong. Our minimum wage is 880€. If you remove the part that automatically goes towards social security, the minimum wage is 743€.

      This is what ‘LGBT-free zones’ and populist parties like PiS do to a country. Highest wages in eastern EU.

      These figures aren’t comparable because each country bases it off a different number of working hours. France might be based on 35 hours and Ireland might be based on 39 hours per week.

    17. Wow, Poland is better than 13 other EU countries? Above all, neighbours except Germany. That is impressive.

      Although we don’t have a minimum in Denmark, it’s quite common for jobs that don’t require an education to get employed, to pay around 16,75€ per hour, which is 2.685€ a month for 160,33 hours which is 37 hours a week.
