## From wage statistics to a rate you can quote

Four steps, all published on the methodology page.

[Read the method](https://deftridge.com/rates/methodology/)


### Official wage data

Percentiles for the role in the most local place that has data: metro area, then state or region, then country.


### Aged to today

Surveys lag, so each figure is moved to October 2026 with the wage index of its country.


### Checked on posted pay

We compare with thousands of real job ads that publish a pay range and correct for any systematic gap.


### Contractor premium

A multiplier for format and level, a floor so no rate is below market, and a cap. The company adds 15% on top.

## Questions about rates

Where do the numbers come from?

From official wage surveys for each country (BLS OEWS, Job Bank Canada, ONS ASHE, Eurostat and national statistics offices), aged to October 2026 with a wage index and checked against pay posted in real job listings.

Why is the Deftridge rate higher than the median wage?

An employee wage includes paid leave, benefits and employer taxes. A contractor carries those costs. The Deftridge rate adds a premium for the format, never prices a role below the market median and applies country floors and caps.

Who pays the 15% fee?

The company. It is added on top of your rate and billed to the company, so the rate you see is the rate you receive.
