Labour Tax Country Benchmark

I created this simple Labour Tax Country Benchmark visualization to compare tax contributions among different countries.  Primarily in Europe, but also the US, Australia, Japan, Korea, Chile, and Mexico.

The data is sourced from the OECD Data Explorer, which gathers information on Personal Income Tax rates, Social Security contributions, Gross Labor Costs, and Net Income After Taxes (i.e., what’s left in your pocket). The data spans 10 years (2014-2023). You can choose among three household types: Single Person, Couple without children, and Couple with 2 children, as well as different earning levels.
