So we've looked at the average salaries a Logistics Clerk will earn in Peru. The next interesting data point is the distribution of salaries.

Salary ranges

We already know that a Logistics Clerk can earn between 18,260 PEN and 45,720 PEN on average in Peru. 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.

Median salary

What this means is that approximately 50% of the population earn less than 30,800 PEN, and 50% of the population earn more than 30,800 PEN.

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).

The difference between a median and an average salary

The median and average salary are both indicators you can use to see if you are being paid fairly based on the overall population.

  • If your salary is higher than the average and the median salary, you are earning well compared to others.
