Change in people employed: the broader occupation groups these jobs belong to (Eurostat Labour Force Survey, Belgium). Pay is calculated by UNIFER from Statbel's 2022 average hourly pay for the job's occupation group (women's and men's figures weighted by the share of women) × 38 hours a week, and shown a month. Statbel publishes no lower-quartile pay, so no entry-level figure is shown. No "vs last year" figure: Eurostat marks a break in Belgium's 2024 online-ads series.
