In 2023, the national gross income per capita in Jamaica increased by 470 U.S. dollars (+8.2 percent) compared to 2022. Therefore, the national gross income in Jamaica reached a peak in 2023 with 6,200 U.S. dollars. Gross national income (GNI) per capita is the total value of money received by a country, from both domestic or foreign sources, divided by the midyear population. The World Bank uses a conversion system known as the Atlas method, which implements a price adjusted, three year moving average, smoothing out fluctuations in exchange rates.Find more statistics on other topics about Jamaica with key insights such as value added to gross domestic product by the manufacturing sector, value added by the agriculture, forestry, and fishing sector to the gross domestic product, and value added by the services industry to the gross domestic product.

Jamaica JM: GDP: USD: Gross National Income per Capita: Atlas Method data is updated yearly, averaging 1,800.000 USD from Dec 1968 (Median) to 2017, with 50 observations. The data reached an all-time high of 5,020.000 USD in 2013 and a record low of 620.000 USD in 1968. Jamaica JM: GDP: USD: Gross National Income per Capita: Atlas Method data remains active status in CEIC and is reported by World Bank. The data is categorized under Global Database’s Jamaica – Table JM.World Bank: Gross Domestic Product: Nominal. GNI per capita (formerly GNP per capita) is the gross national income, converted to U.S. dollars using the World Bank Atlas method, divided by the midyear population. GNI is the sum of value added by all resident producers plus any product taxes (less subsidies) not included in the valuation of output plus net receipts of primary income (compensation of employees and property income) from abroad. GNI, calculated in national currency, is usually converted to U.S. dollars at official exchange rates for comparisons across economies, although an alternative rate is used when the official exchange rate is judged to diverge by an exceptionally large margin from the rate actually applied in international transactions. To smooth fluctuations in prices and exchange rates, a special Atlas method of conversion is used by the World Bank. This applies a conversion factor that averages the exchange rate for a given year and the two preceding years, adjusted for differences in rates of inflation between the country, and through 2000, the G-5 countries (France, Germany, Japan, the United Kingdom, and the United States). From 2001, these countries include the Euro area, Japan, the United Kingdom, and the United States.; ; World Bank national accounts data, and OECD National Accounts data files.; Weighted Average;

The dataset presents median income data over a decade or more for males and females categorized by Total, Full-Time Year-Round (FT), and Part-Time (PT) employment in Jamaica. It showcases annual income, providing insights into gender-specific income distributions and the disparities between full-time and part-time work. The dataset can be utilized to gain insights into gender-based pay disparity trends and explore the variations in income for male and female individuals.
Key observations: Insights from 2023
Based on our analysis ACS 2019-2023 5-Year Estimates, we present the following observations: - All workers, aged 15 years and older: In Jamaica, the median income for all workers aged 15 years and older, regardless of work hours, was $38,125 for males and $28,333 for females.
These income figures indicate a substantial gender-based pay disparity, showcasing a gap of approximately 26% between the median incomes of males and females in Jamaica. With women, regardless of work hours, earning 74 cents to each dollar earned by men, this income disparity reveals a concerning trend toward wage inequality that demands attention in thecity of Jamaica.
- Full-time workers, aged 15 years and older: In Jamaica, for full-time, year-round workers aged 15 years and older, while the Census reported a median income of $55,833 for males, while data for females was unavailable due to an insufficient number of sample observations.As there was no available median income data for females, conducting a comprehensive assessment of gender-based pay disparity in Jamaica was not feasible.
