    Description

    After a steep decline, starting in 2010 and culminating in the bottom value of 19,939 euros, average annual wages in Portugal increased to unprecedented figures. By 2021, the mean wage per year of work was 21,717 euros, despite the more than 200-euro drop that followed in 2022. By 2023, annual wages rose to 22,006 euros. The salary increase is not enough to tackle living expenses The surge in salaries is even more evident when considering minimum annual wages. Following a period of stagnation between 2011 and 2014, the Portuguese minimum annual salary has been on a hike, reaching 11,480 euros by 2024. This rise is relevant when considering the impact of growing inflation on the prices of goods and services, as it restores some purchasing power to workers. Nevertheless, 50 percent of Portuguese people stated, in 2023, that their professional income was mostly not enough to face up to living expenses. Youngsters and women struggle the most when it comes to unemployment and salary amounts The unemployment rate in the country was at six percent in the second quarter of 2024, having decreased from the previous quarter. People between 16 and 24 years of age were the most affected by unemployment, with shares of 22 percent in the same quarter. Women followed as the second most impacted by this social issue. The gender gap is also notorious when it comes to wages. In 2022, women’s average monthly salaries were over 13 percent lower than the salaries of their male counterparts, which impairs women in the tackling of the rising cost of living.

    Description

    The national minimum wage per month in Spain increased steadily over the last years. The minimum monthly wage grew by about 89 percent from 2008 to 2024, with salaries increasing from 600 euros a month to 1,134 euros a month in 2023. In 2019, the Socialist government of Spain passed a decree by which the national minimum wage would be given a boost of 164 euros, therefore making it stand at 900 euros per month as of that year, the largest increase to date.

    Salaries in Spain

    Along with the monthly wage, the national minimum daily wage also grew consistently over the past years, with the gross minimum standing at 37.8 euros a day in 2024 relative to 20 euros a day in 2008. Annual wages in Spain have however not followed this trend and fluctuated greatly during the same period. The highest average wage registered in Spain took place in 2009, year in which the mean salary amounted to over 30,000 euros a year after a period of ongoing growth. Spanish salaries however initiated a downtrend that prompted the average worker to earn approximately 29,113 thousand euros a year in 2022.

    Salaries in Europe

    Iceland ranked as the European country that featured the highest salaries in 2022, with an average wage of approximately 79,473 euros a year. Luxembourg and Switzerland followed second and third, with average salaries of 78,000 and 73,000 a year, respectively. In terms of growth, Portugal ranked as the country that saw the lowest decrease in salaries in 2022 compared to the previous year, with a development of -0.2 percent more relative to 2021, during that year, no European country registered an increase in real wages.

Description

After a steep decline, starting in 2010 and culminating in the bottom value of 19,939 euros, average annual wages in Portugal increased to unprecedented figures. By 2021, the mean wage per year of work was 21,717 euros, despite the more than 200-euro drop that followed in 2022. By 2023, annual wages rose to 22,006 euros. The salary increase is not enough to tackle living expenses The surge in salaries is even more evident when considering minimum annual wages. Following a period of stagnation between 2011 and 2014, the Portuguese minimum annual salary has been on a hike, reaching 11,480 euros by 2024. This rise is relevant when considering the impact of growing inflation on the prices of goods and services, as it restores some purchasing power to workers. Nevertheless, 50 percent of Portuguese people stated, in 2023, that their professional income was mostly not enough to face up to living expenses. Youngsters and women struggle the most when it comes to unemployment and salary amounts The unemployment rate in the country was at six percent in the second quarter of 2024, having decreased from the previous quarter. People between 16 and 24 years of age were the most affected by unemployment, with shares of 22 percent in the same quarter. Women followed as the second most impacted by this social issue. The gender gap is also notorious when it comes to wages. In 2022, women’s average monthly salaries were over 13 percent lower than the salaries of their male counterparts, which impairs women in the tackling of the rising cost of living.
