The Annual Survey of Hours and Earnings (ASHE) is ONS's main source for information on the distribution of earnings.
The first few sections of this article present summary analysis: overall medians, make-up and distribution of earnings of the 2008 ASHE. The analysis compares the 2008 results with the 2007 results (and where relevant the 1997 to 2007 back series). While these figures are of interest, they can hide wide variations between different industries, occupations, regions and age groups. The concluding sections of the article give summary analyses of each of these factors.
