The ratio of the average monthly salary in the civil service (for the central government administration), compared to the average monthly salary of tertiary-educated workers in the economy (first level of tertiary education or above, see definitions section), expressed as a percentage. If the above data is not available, but there are reliable and up-to-date salary reports available comparing the salaries in the civil service with other sectors in the economy, this data is used for the comparison (using the point allocation specified below). If the average salary among civil servants is too low, the civil service will not be considered an attractive career choice for qualified professionals. If the average salary is too high, it may push up other salaries in the economy, but this question is not assessed under this indicator. Point allocation: • 3 points = more than 95% • 2 points = 85%-95% • 1 point = 75%-84.99% • 0 points = below 75%
