Where do these motor vehicle pay figures come from?

They come from placements Dovetail & Slate actually made in the last 24 months, not advertised figures and not a survey. Hourly and daily figures are the charge rate an employer pays the agency, which includes the worker's pay, on-costs and margin. Permanent figures are the salary itself, because a permanent placement has no charge rate. A group is only published where at least five placements sit behind it, and sample sizes are shown as bands rather than exact counts.

Where these come from

Placements we made, not a salary survey. Hourly and daily figures are the charge rate: what an employer pays us, with the worker's pay, on-costs and our margin inside it. Permanent figures are the salary itself, because a permanent placement has no charge rate: the employer pays the person directly and a separate fee to us. Region comes from the client's own location, and we publish nothing, nationally or regionally, where we hold fewer than five placements. Permanent salaries cover full-time roles only.
