The average gross monthly wage is the share of wages and salaries (including premium for overtime, direct remuneration and bonuses, refund of wages, etc.) per employee per month. Therefore it does not indicate what is the wage each concrete employee receives. Results of structural statistics, providing data on earnings of respective employees, show that approximately two thirds of employees have a wage lower than the national average.
It should be mentioned that an employee receives a net wage or salary, while the gross wage is such amount, from which the employer pays appropriate amounts on health and social security insurance, employment policy, and advance income tax.
