Salary ranges

We already know that a Fitter and Turner can earn between 7,200 GIP and 19,300 GIP on average in Gibraltar. This is known as the range in statistics.

The difference between the maximum and minimum values is a good indicator of variability in salaries, and can be used by employers to figure out how much they can expect to pay, and for employees to know how much they can earn.

What this means is that approximately 50% of the population earn less than 11,900 GIP, and 50% of the population earn more than 11,900 GIP.

If you are earning more than the median salary, that's a good indicator that you are being paid well.

If you're not earning more than the median salary, your objective should be to increase your earnings to be at least as high as the median salary (which you can do by asking for a pay rise, looking for a better paying job, etc).
