How to read the salary report
Use the range, evidence count and freshness together. A single median is useful context, but the full distribution is a stronger starting point for an offer or pay-review conversation.
Read the range, not just one number

Transparent methodology
How a publishable cohort is built
- Match comparable evidence. Only compatible full-time records are compared. Base salary stays separate from total compensation, and PayCal does not guess a full-time equivalent when part-time hours are missing.
- Protect sparse groups. Exact salary statistics need at least five compatible records. Smaller salary cohorts are suppressed or broadened, and any broader scope is disclosed.
- Show evidence quality. Sample size, latest submitted date and confidence remain beside the result. Employer or client names, source IDs and contact details are not published.
