Gehaltsreport 2026: 1,3 Millionen Gehaltsdaten im Vergleich: Gehören Sie zu den Besserverdienern in Deutschland?
Das Gehalt gehört nach wie vor zu den Tabuthemen in Deutschland. Finden Sie heraus, wie gut Sie im Vergleich in einzelnen Berufen, Branchen und Bundesländern verdienen.
In Germany, the topic of salary is often considered taboo despite companies being required to include average salary figures in job postings starting in June. Currently, only about 16% of German employers comply with this requirement, while in the UK it's around 70% and in France 35%. However, money is the most frequently cited reason for employees to seek new employment, according to a study by Randstad, a staffing firm.
To promote more transparency in salaries, StepStone, a job platform, publishes an annual Salary Report, analyzing over 1.3 million salary figures. This report compares how different industries and professions compare in terms of earning potential. By reviewing the data in our analysis, readers can see where their income stands relative to others and whether there might be room for improvement in their earnings.
