Archetype: the economy-wide pool of all Managers (ISCO-08 major group 1) across every industry, the all-managers convention also used for Mongolia, Turkey, Vietnam, and the earlier ILOSTAT wave; no chief-executives split is published, so no executive rows were derived from it. Published MEDIAN stored as p50; the same series publishes a mean of 13,318 for 2024. No seniority split exists, so this is an all-seniority figure: treat it as a floor when quoting senior roles. The same series stood at 4,000 in 2022, so pay has kept moving.
