Curated directly by the reviewer from the Eurostat Structure of Earnings Survey 2022 (dataset earn_ses22_21, mean monthly gross earnings of ISCO major group 1 managers across all industries, EUR, enterprises with 10 or more employees, total sex, 2022 vintage). The economy-wide managers pool shared by all executive cells; used because the NACE B-S managers cell is unpublished for this country in earn_ses22_48. MEDIAN-ONLY shape carrying a published MEAN; the 2022 vintage makes it a floor. SES monthly earnings exclude the customary extra payments (13th month and similar), so a full local package runs higher.
