What the percentile means
A percentile is a point in a pay distribution. The 50th percentile is the median: half of the reported full-time employee jobs paid less, and half paid more. The calculator estimates a position between the percentile cut-offs ONS publishes, using straight-line interpolation, so treat the result as an indication rather than an exact rank.
The data only gives cut-offs from the 10th to the 90th percentile. Below that range, or above it, the calculator shows which side of the published limits your salary falls on instead of guessing an exact rank.
About the figures
The comparison uses the Office for National Statistics’ 2025 provisional Annual Survey of Hours and Earnings, Table 3.7a, “Annual pay - Gross”, for full-time employee jobs. These annual estimates cover employees on adult rates who had been in the same job for more than a year. Figures may be revised in a later edition.
The table provides a United Kingdom figure, figures for Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland, and figures for each of the nine English regions. It does not provide a separate England-wide percentile in this table. This is gross pay for employee jobs, not household income, self-employment income or take-home pay.
View the ONS ASHE Table 3 data and notes. For take-home pay after Income Tax, National Insurance and optional pension or student loan deductions, use the take-home pay calculator.
