Please could you tell me, approximately, how many working / employed people earn more than £63,000 a year in Jersey, and the number of working / employed people who earn less? Please do not pro-rata the salaries of part time employees, but rather, if they earn less than £63,000 a year, include them in the latter group.
Response
The details requested are as follows:
| Earnings greater than £63,000 | 6,100 |
| Earnings equal to or less than £63,000 | 55,300 |
Notes on table:
- figures rounded to the nearest 100
- based on gross earnings prior to tax and social security deductions
- the count reflects all individuals that have been included on an employer’s ITIS return during 2016 (irrespective of number of working hours / weeks etc. worked in 2016)
- similar to the requested treatment of part-time employees, the earnings of individuals who either arrived in Jersey part way through or left Jersey part way through 2016 have not been subject to a pro rata calculation.
- individuals with more than one employer have been counted only once
