ILO calculates the figures from Thailand's Labour Force Survey (HIES - Household Socio-Economic Survey; LFS - Labour Force Survey). Employees are people in paid employment; the self-employed and own-account workers, a large part of Thailand's workforce, are not included. Earnings are not adjusted for inflation. The mean is pulled up by high earners and is higher than what a typical employee earns.",
