Trends in ICT Specialists’ Incomes in the Czech Republic

Our contribution addresses the topic of ICT specialists’ remuneration (regardless of the economic sector in which they operate) in comparison with income trends in the Czech economy for the period from 2015 to 2025. We conduct this analysis for both the business sector and the non-business sector. The data source used for the analyses is the database of Trexima, a.s., a company which collects data on employee incomes regularly once a year, in the second quarter of each relevant year. This amounts to approximately 2,000,000 records from around 20,000 economic entities per year. Our findings indicate that the earnings of ICT professionals are growing significantly faster than those of other employees, with a difference between business and non-business sector earnings of around 75%. This fact is also reflected in the nation’s gender pay gap, which is decreasing very slowly over time.
