The earnings of employees relate to the gross remuneration in cash and in kind paid to employees, as a rule at regular intervals, for time worked or work done together with remuneration for time not worked, such as annual vacation, other type of paid leave or holidays.

Earnings also exclude severance and termination pay. For more information, refer to the Wages and Working Time Statistics (COND) database description.
