How to read these figures

  • Source: the social balance in the annual accounts the company filed with the National Bank of Belgium. It covers its own staff, not that of its subsidiaries.
  • Personnel cost is the employer's total cost (gross pay, employer contributions, insurance and other benefits), not an employee's pay.
  • The staff costs of the annual accounts (item 62) divided by the average staff in full-time equivalents of the same fiscal year: what one full-time employee costs the employer, social contributions included. Neither a gross nor a net salary. Under 10 FTE an average approaches one person's pay; we do not show that figure.
  • The sector is the NACE division of the main activity. Percentages are compared with employers of at least 5 FTE; the middle half runs from the first to the third quartile.
  • Exits are the number of leavers in full-time equivalents against average staff. Students, flexi-jobs and seasonal work are included and can make the percentage high.
