Earnings and income statistics capture how pay and labour income are distributed across workers and economies — including how unequally. ILOSTAT presents data on earnings levels, wage inequality, low pay, gender pay gaps, and labour income shares, supporting analysis of pay structures and income inequality in labour markets.
