Curated directly by the reviewer from ILOSTAT (International Labour Organization statistics), which republishes the Ethiopia Labour Force Survey of the Ethiopian Statistics Service: median monthly earnings, total sex, 2021 annual, national currency (survey income from employment, pre-tax). Archetype: all employees in Information and communication (ISIC Rev.4 section J). The three technology families share this one published pool; the ICT branch mixes specialists with telecom and support roles, so it understates pure specialists. Published MEDIAN stored as p50; the same series publishes a mean of 6,123 for 2021. No seniority split exists, so this is an all-seniority figure: treat as a floor when quoting senior roles. 2021 is the latest annual in this series and is now 5 years old; nominal pay has risen materially since, so treat as a conservative floor.
