How to read this
- A median, not an offer. The middle of the companies in that group. The P25–P75 column is the middle half. Ranges are wide.
- Not a survey. Deloitte, Michael Page and the other surveys sit on the benchmark in their own section. They measure different things. Do not average them with these medians.
- No names. No company and no person is identified.
- Checked. Each underlying value was checked against the annual-report page it came from. Values that failed the check are left out.
