Average Weekly Earnings (AWE)
Product
A monthly measure of the average weekly earnings (AWE) per job in Great Britain.
This was first published in June 2005 as an experimental index, alongside the established Average Earnings Index (AEI). From December 2009 this is no longer an experimental index. 'Latest data' provides information on the total average earnings as well as the average amount of bonuses and arrears of pay.
Following requests from users, further information (including the seasonally adjusted series, decomposition of the growth into earnings and employment effects and a more detailed public sector split) is provided in the form of 'Supplementary Tables'.
These National Statistics are produced to high professional standards and released according to the arrangements approved by the UK Statistics Authority.
