## How to read this

- Median (P50): half of people earn less than this.
- Middle 50% (P25–P75): half of people earn within this range.
- People: an exact count for a whole role; a band (5–9, 10–29, 30–49, 50+) for anything narrower (a company, province, level or industry).
- Only groups with enough people have figures. Groups without enough data are left out.
