Statistics Committee announces nominal wage in Uzbekistan

The lowest salary is still in the healthcare sector, the highest – in banking and IT.

The average nominal accrued wages of employees in the field of finance and insurance in the first quarter of 2021 amounted to 6.4 million soums, follows from the State Statistics Committee data.

IT specialists ranked second with 4.8 million soums. The nominal salary in the industry was 3.6 million soums.

This information, however, is not accurate to a certain extent, because it is calculated based on several factors: the number of registered organizations in a region, the payroll, the number of employees and others.

1.7 million people in 2020 received up to 1 million soums. This is 40% of all who receive a salary in the country.
