The self-reported averages in Computrabajo job postings (consulted 2026-08-19) are: production assistant around Q3,510 a month, industrial electrician around Q4,712, and industrial engineer between Q5,555 and Q8,360 (two pages of the same portal disagree). They carry an urban-formal bias and the dossier classifies them as tier (b)/(c), never as official data. The official references are the national average labor income of Q2,713 (Q2 2025; Q3,901 in the metropolitan area) and the 2025 minimum wages by district and activity, already verified in the file (27 minimum_wage_* indicators). There is no official source for formal wages by occupation.

The research is written in English; quoted figures, source names and the titles of legal instruments stay in the language their source published them in.

This layer is research: read from public sources by the archive's own team, every claim cited with the date it was consulted, and audited where it is marked so. It has not entered the verified store — no figure here was fetched back from its source or stamped with a retrieval time — so it wears no red provenance numeral and never mixes with the verified figures.
