As the Macedonian State Statistical Office announced, the average monthly net salary per worker amounted to MKD 20,004 in September, i.e. around EUR 325. The average gross salary amounted to MKD 30,002.

The amount of net salary was increased by 118.7 percent compared to the same month last year. However, it should be taken into consideration that the concept of gross salaries was introduced at the beginning of the year.

The increase in net salary is explained with the increase in average monthly salaries in healthcare and social work, fishing and electric energy supply. The biggest increase was recorded in the sectors of transport, processing industries and financial mediation.
