The fuller derivation this dataset is chartered to grow into (not yet what the figures above are; they are each source's own published figure as read): one row per occupation per jurisdiction: the statistical agency's median and percentile pay with its reference period, joined to the official duty list (O*NET tasks, the National Careers Service profile, the ANZSCO description) so a job description and its pay are the same row; the cross-jurisdiction spread for one role, and the trade premium (an HVAC or roofing project manager against the all-industry project-management median), are the figures nobody publishes together; changed-since on each release", "embed": "
