Thenational average salary (ornational average wage) is themean salary for the workingpopulation of a nation. It is calculated bysumming all the annual salaries of all persons in work (surveyed) anddividing the total by the number of workers (surveyed).^[1] It is not the same as theGross domestic product (GDP)per capita, which is calculated by dividing the GDP by the total population of a country, including theunemployed and those not in theworkforce (e.g. retired people, children, students, etc.).^{[citation needed]} It can be useful in understanding economic conditions, and to employers and employees in negotiating salaries.^[1] The nationalmedian salary is usually significantly less than the national average salary because the distribution of workers by salary isskewed.^[2]

Examples of usage

[edit]

TheUnited States Social Security Administration calculates a "national average wage index", used to index past wages of workers by multiplying them by the ratio of the current wage index to the wage index at the time the wages were earned, for the purposes of benefit calculations. The wage index is updated every year by multiplying it by the percentage the US national average wage has changed that year.^[3]
